IN HIS WORDS: When it comes to addiction, my story is somewhat textbook, while being nothing like most people have ever heard. In the early years there's the typical abuse and subsequent trauma, then the discovery of substances and behaviors that help you cope with the world. In my case, it was alcohol and pornography. I hid my addictions to both pornography and alcohol for 25 years. In that time, I became an award-winning journalist, married a great woman and had two kids. In early 2009, I created a popular magazine in Central Maine, launched a film festival in northern New England and won a seat on my City Council. I was a bonafide local celebrity, but after the business took a turn for the worse, I removed myself from the medication I'd been taking for bipolar disorder for a decade and the addictions took over my life almost immediately. Both the drinking and porn use exploded in mid-to-late 2013. Everything came to a head the morning of March 20, 2014, when I was arrested for engaging a teenage girl in

I'm an Intuitive Business Coach, Author, and Medium. I have gone through more than most in my short little life. I've cheated death several times. I'm all about Life and I LOVE talking about death. I help people heal themselves. I'm a healer. About 11 years ago, I cried on my 30th birthday...really just sad and disappointed that my life was where it was. Since then, I've written two books, published one ("How I Learned to Smile From The Inside"), developed into a psychic medium, HR expert, Death expert, healing and bereavement facilitator and now an Intuitive Business Coach. I've come quite a long way. Of course, the obstacles along the way were cancer, kidnap, narrowly escaped HIV (probably several times), survived many friends' marriages, babies, and deaths, and most importantly, I am the person I want to be...almost every day. Now, I'm married to the love of my life, who also happens to be a medium. Every day is an adventure with him, as you can only imagine. He heals people through death. I like to hea

My mother suffered from anxiety and depression when I was born and when I was 7 months old she died of cancer. I went on to lose two other surrogate mothers before I was 5 years old. My stepmother was violent and abusive and my father was absent as I grew up. This led to me being stuck in fight and flight as I grew up and resulted in low self-esteem. On leaving home I fell into a shadowy world of drugs, crime, violence, and homelessness. But at 27 the arrival of my firstborn son inspired me to begin my inner journey of healing and transformation which I am still on. This journey has included: divorce, severe illness, overcoming addiction and learning to love and accept myself. I realized early on that my service to the collective influenced my own healing and the extent to which I was engaged and successful in my own healing impacted how much I could empower others. I worked with disadvantaged youth for many years before stumbling upon the inner journey of the divine union of masculine and feminine as a vehic

When I was just two years old, I had a recurring dream that I was a Tibetan monk who died on a bridge just as described in the story in the book Chaos to Clarity. I had the same dream every night for a year. My parents were so worried as I woke up every night screaming. They took me to specialists until one doctor told them I was too hot, they took my blankets and clothes off and the dream stopped. Then some months before my mom passed away she told me about a meeting she had with a Maori elder in an orchard when she was just 16 and the information she was given about my past lives and future which matched the dream I had at the age of 2. She said she didn’t tell me because she didn’t want me to be influenced by such a powerful prophecy and wanted me to live my life freely. She was scared I would leave her and become a monk! I gave mom the pearl I had received from the heart of the statue of the Goddess of Compassion, Guan Yin Avalokiteshvara, that is central to this story and it disappeared not long after. h

Lynn and I discuss being in an orphanage at 5, then to California and from 7-9 in juvenile hall. 9-13 foster care where she survived sexual abuse, and then back into the home where she was taken from. Surviving with food from dumpsters, writing since she was 12, alcoholic parents, a dad who gambled, 6 siblings to being a nurse and working in the police force with their rape cases, then retiring. It was quite an adventure! IN HER WORDS: In my interview with you, I want those who will be listening eventually to know me more as the author who, through my life experiences have made me who I am today. From the dysfunctional childhood, through professional careers and as a mother and grandmother, grounded in my Catholic Faith, that life is precious and anything is possible. Even miracles.

IN HER WORDS: My horses (and animals in general) have always been a huge part of my life. I was kicked in the head by a horse as a child and later in life my horses helped me heal from that trauma and recover the parts of my soul that were frozen in that experience. They helped me, as an adult, recognize and face the incongruence I was living, taught me how to process fears and insecurities to reclaim the most authentic version of myself and guided me to develop my highly intuitive and energy healing skills that I now could not live without, and use to help humans and animals find deeper meaning and clarity in their lives and relationships. The more I journeyed into the realm of spirit with them, the more instances that channeling, receiving energetic downloads and communicating with animals and those who had passed into spirit beings, began to spontaneously happen. The many deaths of my animals throughout my life initiated me and helped me find a deeper understanding around death in relationship within the c

Mel lost her Mom to breast cancer when she was only 17 and then waited for her own diagnosis. She has also started her own publishing company and is an author twice. IN HER WORDS: I am a breast cancer survivor and philanthropist. My motto is that life can really suck - but it's up to me not to let it suck the life out of me.

She worked as a copywriter and producer in radio and television before having children and making the decision to stay at home with them full-time.

Foojan and I discuss being raised by a famous Mom with a father not in the pictures much and being passed around to people to take care of her. The good news is she received love from everywhere, the bad news is she was molested. With therapy, awareness integration, resilience she got through her past. She was first a child in rage, ran away at age 11, moved to the USA at the age of 12 on her own, attended ASU at 15 years old and used her past as her passion to become a therapist. IN HER WORDS: I am originally from Iran. I was sexually molested from age 3-8, come from a divorced family, came to the U.S. at age 12 1/2 alone, graduated from High School at age 15, went to ASU as an international student, the revolution happened and my parents could not support me, so I started working 3 jobs at age 17 to survive, had to quit school since as an international students the cost was extremely high. I worked and put my self through school and graduate school while I paid fully with no loan. Today I am a known psychot

Glenda-Ray and I discussed being in the hospital and nearly dying, "we have to feel it to heal it", working with animals, energy healing as an intuitive, having multi-dimensional journeys, talking to animals, being silent and the cost of not speaking up. A published author twice, with a YouTube channel and meditation IN HER WORDS: As a child, I had an experience of not being seen nor heard hiding behind the curtain for fear of what might happen if I shared my thoughts, feelings, emotions and spoke my innermost truths. All of these un-expressed thoughts, feelings, and emotions had to "go" & find a voice somewhere. My soul chose the seat of anger- the liver to scream out there & be heard, acknowledged & received. This led to a near "death" experience as a young adult. Through that powerful life-changing journey, I commanded to be shown another way to heal, transform & empower my life. Various alternative healing modalities literally showed up at my doorstep. Through the exploration of these al

Amber and I discuss  starting a business, fighting depression, living abroad, getting married, being a lesbian, getting divorced and living her truth. IN AMBERS WORDS I am in a place of life in which I am so proud that I am finally living my truth. It has been a rocky road, mainly due to me trying to fight my inner authentic self. I was born and raised in South Orange County, California. I was also raised in a very conservative, Mormon family, where doing what was "right" was always the most important- far before being authentic. I am the oldest of four kids in my family, meaning I have always been the one with the hardest expectations placed on me and on myself.  I went to Cal State University, Long Beach for my undergraduate degree. I developed an intense attraction to my first roommate in college but didn’t know what it meant. I admitted in my journal all of the feelings I was experiencing and even wrote “I might be a lesbian” but somehow talked myself out of that crazy idea. I decided I wanted a

I am an entertainment journalist, a publicist, and editor and I

When it comes to finances, Christine doesn't think she has really struggled. Some people have gifts in certain things and she's just naturally great with money. That's how she became a finance coach since there are not a lot of people in her area who want to teach people about money. They care most about people who already have investable assets. Christine wanted to learn about money and manage it herself. She just couldn't find one in her area so she decided to be that coach - after learning herself to be even better with money.  She's also learned that a lot of people's money behaviors stem from the past so she also helps with money mindset and behaviors as well.  The difference between Christine and other financial advisors other than her coaching? She was a blast to chat with!

Erica started out in this glorious world knowing she was connected to everything. She talked with animals, plants, trees - the whole thing. She was also given a couple of harsh physical and emotional experiences that knocked her out of that. Born with a dislocated hip, and in traction at 6 months and in a body cast for 18 months by the time she was 1. Lots of trauma AND she can walk normally, so while she's had to deal with the healing of those emotional wounds, she's grateful for it. The second was losing my grandfather when she was 10 who was the one person in life who saw her. After he died, she went into a serious pattern of coping and hiding, as she lived with emotionally underdeveloped people. The triumph is that she took a vow of peace a mere 4 years ago because she snapped and was sick of the violence in the world, and that's led her on a crazy deep spiritual path to uncovering and healing all of the ways she's hidden herself and getting reconnected to where she was when she started out, except now, s
