With all the external noise vying for our attention these days, it’s easy to forget that we have access to a wealth of wisdom within each of us and beyond. My guest Happy Ali shares easy  techniques that work on every level of intuition starting with hunches, precognition, and dream analysis and building to direct communication with a multidimensional level of intelligence that is always available. Happy’s clear explanations and insightful guidance, combined with inspiring true stories from his own and others’ direct experiences, demystifies the intuitive process and makes it accessible to all. 


Happy Ali is the author of The Intuition Bible: How and Why to Tap Into Your Inner Wisdom. With a BA degree in psychology from UCLA, he is a prophetic dreamer, certified master NLP practitioner, certified master clinical hypnotherapist, and host of the Happy Insights podcast.

Happy, thank you so much forcoming on the show.

Happy (03:51):
Thank you so much for having me, Wendy. I'm excited to
be here.

Wendy (03:56):
Well, I think this could be a very intriguing
conversation. I'm hoping it'llbe really intriguing for the
folks listening or the oneperson who listens or however
many people. I'm just kidding!

Happy (04:08):
You never know. You never know.

Wendy (04:10):
No. No. It's so you have written a book called The
Intuition Bible, How and Why toTap Into Your Inner Wisdom.
Let's start real basic. How doyou define intuition?

Happy (04:23):
I love that question.

Wendy (04:25):
Everybody knows the word, but it's kind of ineffable. How
do you describe it?

Happy (04:31):
I know a lot of people always say, I'm intuitive. I
said, what does that mean?They're like, well, I just kinda
know stuff. I said, well, mydefinition of intuition is any
information that does notoriginate from the logical mind.
Now it could come from your gutfeeling. It could come from
other dimensions. It could comefrom other layers of reality. It

(04:56):
could come from sources thatfeel like they are your external
world, like patterns or thingsthat are just happening in your
life. But if you're able toprocess it in a different way,
that's not the typical routethat the logical mind uses and
the same level of calculationthat the logical mind tends to

(05:19):
do when it comes to conclusions.
That's what I call intuition.And my definition of of
intuition is a lot broader thanmost people's because most
people just think it's a gutfeeling, and it's like when you
knew something in advance andthat's it. And that is
definitely not my definition ofit.

Wendy (05:39):
Yeah. I have to agree with you too. I think it's
pretty broad. That's why Iwanted to ask you what you
thought of it, especially afterreading your book because you
cover so much ground in yourbook, and I'm hoping it's crazy
inviting for people who havewanted to open these doors and
maybe haven't tried. So, yeah,let's dive in a little bit more

(06:00):
here.
First of all, let me just say Ilove that you call yourself a
skeptical mystic. I know. That'sawesome. Now here's the tricky
part, I think, when people startexploring their intuitive gifts,
and that is how do you discernbetween true intuitive guidance

(06:21):
and wishful thinking?

Happy (06:23):
Well, intuition doesn't always come in pretty packages,
first of all. So sometimeswishful thinking only comes in
pretty packages. But when youlearn to communicate with the
what I call the gatekeeper ofintuition, which is your
subconscious mind, and you learnthe language of it, it becomes a

(06:45):
lot more clearer when themessage is coming from within.
But an important thing to noteis, first of all, if the
information is good and helpfuland it's not restricting you,
it's it's liberating you, it'smaking you feel free and making
you feel good in life, go withit. Whether it's your logical
mind or whether it's wishfulthinking because sometimes

(07:06):
wishful thinking leads tomanifestations that wouldn't
exist if you didn't have wishfulthinking.
So if you're feeling good, gowith it. Worst comes to worst,
you fail. And then you pick upwhere you left off and you start
over again. Because life isn'tabout end results, it's about
the journey. But I think thatwhat I wanted to really convey

(07:30):
in this book and in my teachingsis that the subconscious mind is
the gatekeeper.
So, basically, our consciousmind is what is listening to me
right now and is hearing certainwords, and it's it's actually
cherry picking certain wordsthat make more sense to you and
align with your beliefs. Andthere's a lot of information

(07:54):
that is coming at you throughall your senses in every moment.
Millions of bits of informationthat is coming to you. It's
being processed by yoursubconscious in every single
moment of your life that isbeing deleted, generalized, and
distorted, but still stored. Andonly out of out of the entire

(08:15):
2,000,000 or a couple ofmillion, only a 150 something or
around that 150 individual bitsof data is being processed per
moment.
So about 2,000,000 is beingdeleted but stored in your
subconscious since the moment ofyour birth. So if you think
about it, you have an entiredatabase of information that is

(08:40):
far beyond what you think youknow. And if you just learn to
communicate with that aspect ofyou, just think about how much
more help you can have in yourlife, how much more data you
have access to that's not evensupernatural or woo woo or weird
or metaphysical. It's just plainold science. But the

(09:02):
subconscious does not speak inthe same language as we do.
It speaks in symbols andpictures and feelings, and and
that's what you have to kindaget used to learning. And once
you learn the techniques justtrying to tap into your
subconscious mind, then you canchange your frequency to higher

(09:22):
levels of intelligence like yoursoul or higher beings or
multidimensional beings and beable to tap into those
frequencies and receiveinformation that goes beyond
time and space. Because once youlearn to tap in, you have access
to worlds that are not definedby the laws of physics. But

(09:44):
first thing you gotta do islearn the language of your
subconscious mind becauseeverybody has been programmed
differently and has a differentway of communicating. Your
mother might have been someonewho is abusive and wore red
lipstick and mine was someonewho was lovely and wore red
lipstick and I see red lipstickand it will mean something

(10:05):
completely different to me.
And when my subconscious istrying to show me someone
abusive or loving, it might showme the red lipstick or it might
show you the red lipstick. Soyou have to kinda learn, and
that's why I encourage justreally giving it some time to
learn. And it's it's an art.It's a craft that you have to
refine. So

Wendy (10:26):
Yes. Absolutely. I mean, it definitely is its own
language, isn't it? And it'sworth putting the time into
deciphering the languagebecause, like you said, it's
such rich territory, and itcould make life easier. And
that's kind of what you'resuggesting in your book is,
like, why not make your lifeeasier and play around with

(10:47):
these tools.

Happy (10:49):
I always think that we have a very few options when it
comes to making decisions. It'sbasically what's out in the
world, what the news is tellingus, what our family is telling
us, what social media is tellingus. But we have this wonderful
friend which lives inside of usthat knows what's best for us.
And it does have an agenda, andits agenda is your well-being.

(11:13):
And if you learn how tocommunicate with this inner
version of you that has accessto so much and it has your best
interest at heart.
So if you get to communicatewith that and have that be added
to the options of choices thatyou have when you're making
decisions in everyday, moments,then life can become a lot

(11:35):
richer. And you can play outscenarios in your mind or ask
your intuition. Hey. If I takethis step, is it better than if
I take this? Will it have abetter outcome?
Is it more aligned with mysoul's purpose? Is this a good
decision for me right now?Should I be backing out? There's
so many things that we don'tconsider because we don't see

(11:59):
the big picture because we're socaught in the this what I call
the physical trance. You we'rein a trance of the physical
world and very confined to thelimitations of the 5 senses.
And when we kind of extractourselves from that trans and
we're able to see the world froma bigger picture, we can have

(12:19):
much better advice. And if youdo make mistakes, you do them
more willingly knowing that,hey, I do wanna have this
negative experience. I do wannadate this person that I feel
like is totally not right for meor whatever it is. But you do it
knowingly for the experience andyou're not going in it blindly.

Wendy (12:40):
Well, that's an interesting take on on making a
not so healthy choice. But yeah.I mean, wouldn't that be cool if
we could all get to that placewhere we're, we're able to
discern, like, well, thisprobably isn't the best thing
for me, but fuck that. I'm gonnado it anyway. Just because I
wanna grow in responses or Iwanna see where it takes me.

Happy (13:00):
I do it all the time because I'm an intuitive and I
am a prophetic dreamer. So Ithink I dream things in advance
and I, you know, know theoutcome of a lot of stuff or I
can feel in my gut that I'm notsupposed to make this move. But
the experience is so invitingthat intriguing that or and I

(13:21):
just say to myself, hey. I'monly gonna be on this planet
once as this person, and I justwanna experience this one little
thing. And if I have tobacktrack, I'm gonna backtrack.
So you will forego your clearintuition many times unless you
are not human. But it's good tohave it as an extra option. It's

(13:42):
almost like having an extrachannel on your television to
choose from. So I do say withall the amazing knowledge,
nobody follows their own adviceall the time.

Wendy (13:54):
Right. And it's kind of refreshing how you're describing
it because it takes the pressureoff. Like, you don't have to get
it right all the time.

Happy (14:01):
Boring when you get it right all the time.

Wendy (14:04):
What would be the point of living a life if you got it
right all all the time?

Happy (14:08):
I decided to quit drinking alcohol and just be
really clear headed for the last10 months and just just speak my
purest vibration and just bejust the best me possible. And I
didn't realize that even thoughI didn't really truly have
hangovers or I wasn't reallygoing crazy or doing dumb stuff,

(14:30):
it was creating an ebb and flowin my life of energy, like
energy storage, energyoverextension. There was so many
things that are happening. Therewas a little bit of drama in my
life energetically, and it wasfueling my creativity. And my
creativity was through the roof.
So when I became sober, and Ilove being sober, it took me a

(14:52):
long time to figure out how tobe creative again. Because I was
so even, and I didn't know howto create and life just felt too
good. And I and creativity isborn from and transformation is
born from a little bit of,challenges, discomfort. And so

(15:13):
now I don't really shy away fromdiscomfort so much as I used to.
And I just kind of, like,welcome it and say, hey.
I'm so connected to my higherself. I'm so connected to this
universe. And I know that I'mprotected and I am supported.
And no matter what, I am safe,and I want to experience life.

(15:35):
So I'm here for the ride.

Wendy (15:37):
That's such a key point you're bringing up, I think, at
least in my own experiences. AndI think it's worth chatting
about a little bit more because,ultimately, what you're talking
about is a big trust fall.Right? I mean, it's like
trusting that no matter whathappens, you're gonna be okay.
That's such a hard thing to getto because how do you know when

(15:58):
you can trust?
How does anyone know when theycan trust that they're gonna be
okay even if it goes horriblysouth?

Happy (16:06):
It goes really badly. To be honest. Like, if you have
really good intentions and yourvibration is clear and clean and
you are not someone who's just,you know, negative in general
and you're positive and you findthat alignment with your soul
and you feel connected, thenthings do work out even if they
fall apart. There's always thatlight at the end of the tunnel.

(16:29):
But sometimes, if you're someonewho's really negative and
somebody who just is not feelingconnected to the world, things
will go south and you'll getstuck down there for a really
long time.
But you're there for a reason soyou can learn to crawl yourself
on your way out of that hole.And you'll stay there and some
people die in there and thenthey have to be born again so

(16:51):
they can earn those muscles andlearn how to get their butt out
of that hole. So it's reallyimportant to know that when I
say everything always works out,generally, everything does work
out as long as you maintain yourintegrity and your energetic
integrity, which means that yougotta always feel connected,

(17:12):
find the bigger picture, andalign with your soul. So when
you do that, then you do have asafety net that when you fall,
there's gonna be a wonderful netunderneath to catch you, and
then someone will just show upout of the blue and kind of
bring a ladder for you to climbyour way back up again. But
that's only for people whoreally do make an effort to be

(17:36):
positive, be connected, andalign with their soul's
frequency.
But there's nothing wrongthere's nothing wrong with
people digging themselves into ahole and staying there for a
long time until they figure outhow to come out of it because
everything in our lives is thereto teach us something. And once
we learn the lesson we'resupposed to learn or what once

(17:58):
we grow the way we're supposedto grow, then the universe will
not waste its resources keepingyou in that scenario. The
universe has to use resources topresent you with any scenario
whether it's positive ornegative. So the moment that a
scenario is no longer useful andproductive, it has to dissipate.

(18:22):
So the good and the bad.
That's why when you finallylearn a lesson, when you finally
transform, old stuff just fallsoff and goes away. And now
you're exposed to new stuff.

Wendy (18:35):
Right. Right. Yeah. No. That's a great distinction.
I think what I was talking abouttoo from the trust perspective
is this idea that you can trusteven if you screw up pretty
badly or you get stuck in thathole that it's still okay. And
that's kind of what you'resaying that maybe the

Happy (18:52):
trust is there. To say because I work with a lot of
clients, and some are goingthrough major depression or
having a really hard time. Whenyou're in that state, you're
feeling trapped and you'refeeling worthless and you can't
move. And the thing that Ialways encourage my clients to
do is get in a non judgmentalzone when it comes to your

(19:13):
depression. Say, hey.
I have every reason to bedepressed. I'm not gonna judge
myself. My life is fallingapart. Everything has fallen
apart. So I'm going to givemyself permission to be
depressed, and thatautomatically releases some
resistance and helps you get outof it.
But most people, when they'redepressed, they judge themselves

(19:35):
from being depressed. They'remad at themselves for not being
able to get out of bed. They'remad at themselves for being in
this hole to begin with, andthat just adds fuel to the fire
and then just get stuck infurther. So nonjudgmental way
whether you're trying to learnintuition or whether you're
trying to crawl your way out ofdepression. Nonjudgment is the

(19:55):
key thing to remember becausethat's the way that we can live
life from a broader perspective.

Wendy (20:04):
That sounds like you're kind of talking about acceptance
too.

Happy (20:08):
Absolutely.

Wendy (20:09):
Really does seem to be a key component to healing is you
can't really move forward until

Happy (20:13):
you're just doing that. And just be okay with it. You
know? I had, I I know we're noteven talking about intuition,
but but this is about intuitiontoo. So I had a client, and she
was having these horrible backpains.
And I believe that intuitioncomes from the gut and the whole
body and even the your externalworld, the universe, the people

(20:34):
around you. So all that'sintuition. But the body is
really one of the main placesthat intuition comes through or
your messengers. It's yourloudest messengers. It's because
the one that you can't ignore.
And my client had this horribleback pain, and I told her to lay
down in the position. And shesaid, I'm gonna lay here, but

(20:55):
it's gonna hurt. I said, listen.Just find a comfortable
position. She's like, I can'teven lay down.
I said, find a position becausewe're gonna do this exercise and
you have to do it. And I wantyou to listen to your body. And
her back pain was bad, and Isaid, just pay attention to it.
You do everything to not payattention to it. It's it's it's
your intuition giving you amessage.
I said, what is it trying tosay? She's like, I have no idea.

(21:16):
I said, well, just just payattention to it for a while. I
said, imagine if it's a kidcrying, and it really wants your
attention. And she sat there,and within a I don't know,
probably, like, 5 minutes, andshe said, the pain is gone.
And I thought, well, why? Andshe's like, how is that
possible? I said, well, when youlisten to someone and they're

(21:40):
done screaming, they'reeventually gonna stop screaming.
I said, don't worry. It willcome back as soon as you're
you're distracted again.
You stop listening to it. Butfor now, the lesson is there's
messages coming through you. Andsoon, the woman who said that
she had no idea what the backpain was about had an epiphany
that said, hey. I think thereason I'm having back pain is

(22:04):
this. And I thought, wow.
I thought you didn't know. Yeah.

Wendy (22:09):
There you have it. Yeah. I I've always kind of thought
that symptoms are there to getour attention. They have a story
to tell. So it's about listeningto them and what story do they
have to tell you.

Happy (22:20):
To torture you.

Wendy (22:21):
And that gets me back to the question I wanted to to ask
around the friend youreferenced. We all have a
friend. And to you, who is thatfriend?

Happy (22:30):
Basically, it starts with my friend being my subconscious
who's the one driving the carwhile I'm not paying attention
all the way to my spirit guides,my higher self. And I clump them
all into 1, 2, a support systemthat goes as far as God. And
those are all because those areall clumped into one for me

(22:53):
because they come through myinner senses. And because they
come through my inner senses,sometimes I have a clear
understanding of who is speakingand sometimes I don't. But I do
know that as long as my energyis clear and clean and and
deliberate, then whatever iscoming through me, giving me

(23:13):
guidance, is smarter than me andhas my best interest at heart.
And, and that's why I call it afriend, but it's really a
plural. It's friends andsupports and all that stuff.

Wendy (23:27):
Yeah. Invisible

Happy (23:28):
friends. So but I I just call it one because it's just it
feels like it all comes throughone avenue. I mean, my I have
stuff coming through my dreams,my gut feelings. And then
there's times when I get to hearstuff I don't wanna hear and I
don't like it. I have propheticdreams, and one of them told me

(23:49):
I was gonna have a son eventhough I was gay and had no
intentions of having a child,and I was single, and I ended up
with a child that you a year anda half later with my own
biological child.
And, and it was a boy in thedream and it was a boy in the in
real life. And I magicallybasically just life happened and
it happened. And then 4 yearslater, I had a dream that

(24:11):
somebody died and then I lost myson And he died. And it was so
these are prophetic dreams thatare my intuition kind of guiding
me on a path and then sometimeswarning me of something that's
about to happen. But as soon asmy son died, he kept showing up
in my dreams again and helpingme through the grieving process
and then telling me I was gonnahave another child, which to me

(24:34):
was what the heck.
Like, why would I do this whenthis led me to the best four and
a half years of my life and thenthe worst pain in the world?

Wendy (24:45):
Tragic. Yeah.

Happy (24:46):
And then I was a walking zombie, but because I was
visited by him so often throughdreams and sometimes within my
body when I was awake, I had anadvantage over other Grievers,
which was very good because Igot to talk to him and we get to
have full on conversations. Butthen he showed me this little
curly haired boy and said thisis your new son. And I thought,

(25:07):
gosh. But then I held that babyand I fell in love with him.
And, I was a student at thetime.
I didn't have any money, becauseyou you need a $100 or more to
make a baby if you're gay. Thedonor, the surrogate, the
lawyers, all the hospital bills,all that stuff. Oh, yeah. And
sure enough, a year and a halfafter he died, I had my twins,

(25:28):
and they're 7 and a half yearsold now. And, of course, one of
them has the curly hair.
And, and I got to meet themright before they were born
because I kinda made a deal withGod and said, hey. I'm not
having another kid if you don'tpromise that they're gonna live
longer than me. And then the daythat they were prematurely born,
the morning of, I had the dreamthat I met both of my children

(25:50):
as adults during their highschool graduation, and I got to
see their personality. And,really, they were like
introducing Dario, introducingCyrus, who were the kids' names.
And the phone woke me up, andthey said, hey.
Your surrogate is gone intolabor, so get your butt over
here.

Wendy (26:07):
Oh, I got chills on that one. What a beautiful story.
Yeah. I mean, you talk about itin your book, and it's it's
freaking heartbreaking what youwent through. And to get that
dream prophesizing what wasabout to happen, I think that
happens to a lot of people whenthey're children.
They're wide open psychically.Right? And they're getting all
this information, and some ofit's not pleasant, and it scares

(26:30):
them, and so they shuteverything down. They shut their
ability to perceive down becausewhy would I wanna open that up
if I can perceive that

Happy (26:38):
Absolutely. Things are gonna happen. I'm gonna just add
another layer to that. So a lotof people just assume that
there's intentional reasons whywe close off our intuition. But
because we come to this earth tosurvive and to live and to make
sure there's food and make surethat we're healthy and we're not

(27:01):
walking into danger.
We are designed in a way thatour 5 senses have to be louder
than our intuition. And when Isay louder, I mean, not even
close in range. One, the tinywhisper and the other one's a
yell.

Wendy (27:17):
Right.

Happy (27:17):
Because the 5 senses are very important for our survival
and the intuition is moreimportant for us to thrive. So a
lot of times, people's intuitionin the beginning, the kids'
survival is based on theirparents. So they have the luxury
of having intuition, and thenand they're still connected to
where they came from.

Wendy (27:37):
Yep.

Happy (27:37):
So as soon as they start having to take care of
themselves, they have to be moreaware of their surroundings, and
that's when the intuition alsoanother reason why intuition
disappears around that time.And, also, parents, you know,
they don't believe in thebelieve in it or they talk them
out of it. And then later as youbecome more grounded and you
become more curious and you'remore, I don't know, you're just

(28:02):
more stable, then you have timeto quiet your mind long enough
to hear the whispers. And that'swhen intuition can kick itself
back in.

Wendy (28:12):
Right. So it's kind of a luxury.

Happy (28:15):
Yeah. It's definitely a luxury.

Wendy (28:17):
To explore this territory. Those are great
points. What was I gonna say? Iwas going to say, yeah, I think
I was just gonna touch on howdeeply subtle opening intuitive
doors is, and that that's kindof what you're focusing on in in
your book. So what if we sort ofshifted now and talk a little
bit about the different ways totune in, like, from the beginner

(28:40):
standpoint and then you alsoreferenced once you get the hang
of it, then you can startopening more cosmic doors and
and touch base with higherfrequencies or however you wanna
describe it.

Happy (28:53):
I always suggest starting really small with a yes or no
answer, which is actually myfavorite thing because I use
that more often than anythingelse. And one of my favorite
things to do is to check my gutfor a yes or no answer. This is
really for a basic beginner andsomeone who's not overly logical

(29:15):
because logical people tend tonot pay attention to their
feelings, but not that it's notaccessible to logical people.
But the more aware you are withyour feelings, the faster you're
gonna get this. And and mostpeople get it right away.
So what I always tell people isclose your eyes and you always
wanna close your eyes becausewhen you close your eyes, you're
slowing down your brainwaves.And the inner voice comes

(29:38):
through in much slower frequencyand the slower brainwaves are
better matched to it so you canreceive it a little bit more. So
when you close your eyes, I wantyou to think of a question that
you know the answer is yes toand ask that question. Like,
say, is the sun outside or isthe is it night outside?
Whatever it is when you'relistening to this.

(30:00):
So you ask yourself thatquestion that you already know
the answer to, but don't giveyourself the answer. Scan your
upper body from your neck toyour pelvis, and some people
feel it in their hands orsomewhere else. Just scan your
body and see what part of yourbody tingles or lights up or
contracts or constricts or justfeels better, whatever sensation

(30:24):
that comes up. And then do it acouple more times with couple
more questions that are still ayes question. Then do the same
thing with a no question and askthat same question in different
ways over and over that you knowthe answer to be no to and then
see where it lights up in yourbody.

(30:46):
And the more you do that, themore you realize that whenever
something is a yes, this part ofyour body does something. And
whenever the answer is no, theother part of your body does
something. And it's usually inthe stomach chest area for some
people. Some people is in theirhands. You never know.
Mine is very specific. And it'simportant to know that once

(31:06):
you've mastered that, then youcan ask a question. Is this
decision aligned with my solepurpose, or is this something
that I should be doing? And thenyou get an immediate response.
And after a while, you just doit without even knowing you're
doing it.
Because once you feel it, yourecognize it, then you act on it
maybe or you don't act on it.It's really up to you. So that's

(31:26):
one of the ways. But if you'reoverly logical because I have
twins and one is super empathicand emotional and one is totally
mental. Like, as he thinks alot, he's very logical.
Everything's pre calculated.Like, everything is just very,
very preplanned in his mind.

Wendy (31:44):
How old are they now?

Happy (31:46):
7a half. Okay. So I just did my book signing, and I had
them there, and I had them do ademonstration on stage. And, of
course, one of them got thefeelings, and he exactly knew
where it was. And the other onejust was like, so did you feel
anything?
And he's like, barely. So and sofor those people, I encourage
other methods. There's a lot ofdifferent methods, but you start

(32:08):
with learning what works for youbecause we have inner senses
that match our outer senses.Like, your sight has
clairvoyance, which is the innersense of the of sight, or your
physical body touch isclairsentience. So once you
figure out which one's yoursuperpower, and there's
meditations to do that, tofigure out which one your

(32:30):
superpower is, then start doingexercises that are more related
to the aspect of you that's morecomfortable coming through.
And when you start doing that,then you recognize the yes or no
questions. I love yes or noquestions because they're
practical, and you can gothrough life and say, hey.
Should I call this person?That's such a basic thing. Or

(32:52):
sometimes when I only carry cashwith me, I only have, like, 100
well, now it's gonna be, like, a$200 to go to the grocery store.
I always play this game where Idon't wanna be a dollar over or
under. And when I'm picking upthe items towards the end, you
know, in the beginning, I justpick whatever I need. But at the
end, I'm like, yes or no. Yes orno. Yes or no.
And I'm always within thedollars range. And I always tell

(33:14):
the cashier to up the stakes.And, and it was so funny because
last time the lady was like, no.No. No.
This this is not gonna be $70.So I said, yes. It is. And then,
of course, it was it was $54.And then as soon as she was
doing the final thing, I'm like,wait, I forgot the meat.

(33:34):
So I had to go grab the meat andput it, and it was $70 and,
like, 10¢ or something.

Wendy (33:38):
Told you.

Happy (33:39):
But these are yeah. But these are different ways to
practice and learn that there'sa part of you that knows more
than you. And that you when youlearn to trust it, then you can
trust it with bigger stuff. Butin the beginning, you wanna
start with small things thatdon't really matter, like the
checkout. Like, what time is itright now?

(34:00):
Like, what time is it? Beforeyou look at the at your watch,
just ask what time it is. Dostuff where you kinda play and
you start exercising a newmuscle, and you start telling
your mind that you care enoughto tap into this well of
resources. And when you do that,it stops filtering out that
noise and allowing you to havebetter access to your inner

(34:24):
self. And it starts with justbeing able to tell the clock or
it comes as a full download likemy book came.
My book was not even supposed tobe here. I was writing a
different book. I said a littleprayer, went to sleep, woke up
with a full book.

Wendy (34:37):
Really? Okay.

Happy (34:38):
Yeah. The book came it was supposed to be 15 chapters
and it turned it to 29, Ibelieve. But it was an
inspiration and I had to followit, but it was not what I was
supposed to do. I'd already paidsomebody else to do this
publishing process for the otherbook.

Wendy (34:55):
Oh, really? Okay.

Happy (34:56):
It was this book, The Heartlands, and I'd already paid
an an amount to have editors andall this stuff. And and then the
intuition bible showed up, and Ithought, well, I'm gonna just
abandon that because that feltright for me. And I said, but
you have to find your ownpublisher. You have to do all
the work and I'm not doinganything. So if it's my inner

(35:16):
being giving me this message andnot my logical mind that had me
do the other stuff, then youneed to give me full support.
And the book wrote itself thateveryone said it was not gonna
be able to find a publisher. Thefirst publisher I submitted to,
which happened to publish ThePower of Now and 7 Spiritual
Laws of Success, it was a bigpublisher in my and it put me in

(35:39):
the same world as these amazingauthors. A week after I
submitted the proposal, theysent me an offer in an advance,
and and I didn't have to

Wendy (35:50):
It's amazing. Right?

Happy (35:51):
It was effortless. Everything has been effortless
because I listened to my innervoice.

Wendy (35:56):
Mhmm.

Happy (35:56):
And I trusted it enough to abandon my current plans.

Wendy (36:01):
Those are really, really key points. I wanna touch on
something that you referenced acouple minutes ago, and that is
the importance of starting withsomething that's unimportant or
neutral. Why do you think thatis? Why do you think you
shouldn't just dive in and andintuit something that is really

(36:22):
meaningful to you or importantto you?

Happy (36:25):
Well, especially if you don't believe that you're an
intuitive in the very beginning,and you're going in with a lot
of pressure, you are going to goin there expecting to fail. So
there's a lot of resistance.Because when you say I am going
to do this, and I'm gonna learnthis thing, and I'm gonna talk
to spirit guides right now, Imean, some people will have that

(36:46):
experience because they're juston the precipice of that
experience, and it's just aboutto happen. But a lot of people
don't believe that they haveintuitive abilities because
their subconscious mind has beendeleting all their intuitive
insight. So when you go in andtreat it as play with something
light and you just keeppracticing and practicing

(37:07):
practicing until a part of yousays, hey.
Maybe I do have access tosomething greater. Or another
thing to do is just go back intoyour past and think about times
when things did feel likeintuition and it worked out and
everyone said it was acoincidence. So you kinda have
to make yourself believe inyourself. Because if you don't

(37:27):
believe it, it's, basicallyblocking your progress. So when
I tell people to go in and treatit as play, and I tell people to
just go tap into theirsubconscious, there's a very
little resistance.
And then if I say, go tap intoyour spirit guide or aliens from
another planet. When you dothat, there's a lot of
resistance. But if I say, hey,there's a lot of information in

(37:49):
your subconscious that you'renot aware of. For example, if
I'm talking to somebody, mysubconscious is very aware of
their body language and howthey're behaving. And people
communicate 55% through theirbody and only 7% through their
words.
But what most people do is payattention to the 7%. Yeah. And
they walk away so excited, sohappy that they met somebody,

(38:13):
and now they're gonna fall inlove with them and all this
stuff. But if they tap into thesubconscious, the subconscious
will say, hey.

Wendy (38:19):
Red flags.

Happy (38:20):
Yeah. The body language said no, and don't listen to
that. So there's so much benefitfrom just the subconscious
alone, and it's science. So youcan have less skepticism around
it. And then when you masterthat, then then start doing the
big stuff.
If you wanna just jump into itand do the big stuff, go for it.

(38:40):
But I just think that it's toomuch pressure. For me, it was
too much pressure. It took meyears to consider myself even a
prophetic dreamer. It had to bethe birth of my son wasn't
enough, the death of my son,then all of a sudden, I was the
family prophet, you know,prophetic dream.
And then after that, still tothis day, I have a death dream
and everyone tells me that I'mcrazy. I mean, not anymore

(39:02):
because it has a timer. If Ihave a death dream, it's 2
months a week, give or take, andthen somebody dies and it's it
but I still have an aunt whostill says, oh, I don't know.
That dream, I said, was within 2months. It was a female.
It was this. She's like, I don'tknow. But when it came to our
the last death in our family,which is my grandmother who
actually gave me the gift ofprophetic dreams, when I had the

(39:26):
dream and we all kinda knew, butwe would just even I started
justifying that it was justfake. But I had, like, 5 more
dreams saying she was dying. Andthen I would not accept it
because it was my grandmother.
And I saw her dead. I saw somany things. And this one, I was
just like, it just means shewent to the hospital or she's
gonna come back. But I cried, ofcourse, after the first dream.

(39:49):
And I told my kids, I said, hey.
Your great grandma's gonna die.Let's prepare for it in 2
months. And then they I deletedit. And then the day of now I'm
not a clairvoyant, so I don'tsee things. But this is a really
important thing to know aboutintuition.
When there's a necessity, othersenses will kick in if you're

(40:09):
ignoring your usual ones. So Iwas ignoring my usual dream
sense that I have. And themoment that my grandma died, I
was in another country. I gotthis feeling that I had to close
my eyes, and I wasn't asleep. Ijust closed my eyes, and I saw
this bird fall out of the skyclear as day, and it was dying.

(40:33):
It was as if it was shot, and itwas just like flapping its
wings, and I watched it die.Wow. And I just opened my eyes
because I was awake. And Ithought, well, that's never
happened before. Like, what theheck does that mean something
bad is happening?
And I wrote it in my journalbecause I have to write it
because I need proof, because Iam a skeptical mystic. And,

(40:58):
yeah. And then 2 hours later, Igot a text from my mom that that
said, hey. I'm not sure what itmeans, but I just got a text
that grandma died. So I waslike, well, I just had that
thing.
And and it was funny because Mycoffee maker just broke down.
Like, everything broke down allat once. And I thought, wow.
Like, something's up in the air.So there's always something.
And I know I'm talking aboutdeath, but there's a lot of

(41:20):
positive stuff out there, likethe birth of my children or just
hearing, like, finding out aboutmy cousin's wife getting
pregnant and ruining hersurprise. I was like, you're
getting pregnant. She's like,no. I'm not. I said, yes.
You are. You are you'repregnant. And then, like, a
month later, she's like, we'repregnant. We've been trying. We
were keeping it a secret.
I was like, well, now you know.So it was kinda like, there's a

(41:44):
lot of good stuff that happens,but the ones that I think that
are the most helpful are theones where you're at a
crossroads and you're not sureor you're not sure of someone's
intentions. But there's onething I do wanna say. There are
a lot of reasons we misinterpretour intuition.

Wendy (42:00):
Great. This is a yes.

Happy (42:01):
And I devoted an entire chapter to it. And one of the
greatest, most important ones iswhen you have an agenda. When
you have a desired outcome andyou don't want any other
outcome, like, for example, menot wanting my grandmother to
die, you will literallymisinterpret everything as as in

(42:23):
as many ways as you can even ifyou're a total expert. If you
have an agenda, if you have a acompulsion towards something

Wendy (42:30):
Mhmm.

Happy (42:31):
Well, you will absolutely misinterpret information. If you
have indigestion and you'reusing your stomach as a source
of information, or if you haveanxiety or nerves and you're
using your stomach as a sourceof information, you're not gonna
get it. You're gonna have to useother tools. So that's why the
book is written the way that itis so that it covers everything.

(42:55):
I wanted it to be like atextbook.
That's why I call it the bibleas well. Although, it was a joke
as well because the bible says,follow these rules and mine just
says go within and find your ownrules. But the bible meant that,
you know, this I

Wendy (43:09):
like that message better.

Happy (43:13):
Thank you. But I really wanted the book to be
comprehensive and something thatleaves very little room for
misinterpretation and blockagesand really remove those
blockages.

Wendy (43:24):
It definitely does. And from what I'm gathering, if I'm
understanding you correctly,what you're really suggesting
and inviting people to do is todevelop a relationship with
themselves and their intuitiveabilities as opposed to like a a
master slave kind of, powerdifferential. It's like you're

(43:48):
working on the same team.

Happy (43:50):
Yeah.

Wendy (43:50):
And then touching on the agenda piece too, we're living
in the age of confirmation bias.We want we we want things to
just prove what we want them toprove.

Happy (44:03):
And there's enough information out there to prove
it. Doesn't matter what youwanna believe in. Google it.

Wendy (44:08):
You'll find it. Absolutely. Either doctor Google
or mister Google will tell you.

Happy (44:14):
Absolutely.

Wendy (44:15):
And everybody has cancer.

Happy (44:17):
Every and everything is gonna cause cancer. Yep. And
it's really important toacknowledge that there is an
aspect of us that AI cannotreplicate, and it's our inner
world. And our inner world isactually more developing now and
more accessible to us, I think,because now there's AI. So

(44:40):
because there's AI is nowbecoming so prevalent, a lot of
our brain power is no longernecessary the way that it used
to be before.

Wendy (44:48):
That's an interesting point.

Happy (44:50):
And now and as above so below. So, whatever happens on
the physical plane also happensin the spiritual plane. So as as
we're developing thissupercomputer that has access to
so much, a spiritual version ofit has to become also more
accessible. That's just, youknow, Edgar Cayce said it. It's
part of the just one of the lawsthat everyone says as above so

(45:12):
below.
So if AI is happening, thatmeans and we have access to it
now because AI has been aroundfor a while, but our physical
access for regular people, if wehave access to that now, then
there is a version of thatthat's an inner world AI that we
also will have more access toand we do have more access to.

(45:32):
And there are people like me whoare getting downloads to teach
people how to work this systemor work this program or access
this infinite well of knowledgethat really does feel like AI,
just a spiritual AI.

Wendy (45:44):
Do you feel like it's always been there? It's just
that as a species, we've gottenfar away from it?

Happy (45:50):
Yes and no. Because, of course, it's always been there.
Everything has always beenthere. But the need and access
changes as life goes by and asour society changes. But right
now, our human species, thecurrent modern civilization is
going through a huge shift.

(46:10):
So this is kind of like thewell, aside from the 5th
dimension opening up and all thewoo woo stuff, our our mind is
going through a huge shiftbecause evolution never stops.
And we might have been thisevolved in spiritually before,
but then we pushed the resetbutton somehow, somewhere, like,

(46:32):
11000 years ago or something.And after the pyramids, and then
we kinda started from scratchagain. And right now is the time
of our spiritual evolution ofour awakening, and it's been
happening for a long time. It'snot like it just happened.
And right now, it's becomingmore accessible. Thanks to

(46:54):
things like TikTok, which peoplefrown upon because of TikTok.
You can talk aboutmultidimensional reality to just
about any 20 year old and talkabout aliens or whatever the
heck you wanna talk about, lawof attraction. And they already
have a premise for it becauseit's being spread so wide. But
all the teachers, all the wisesages had one thing to say, and

(47:19):
that was to go within.
There's not a single one thatdidn't say that unless it was a
false prophet or a false guruthat said, listen to me.
Everyone said go within, and Ifeel that because everyone says
go within, my only message couldpossibly be a step by step guide

(47:43):
to going within for people andand the stepping stone towards
the evolution of our ourspiritual evolution. So I feel
like my book was presented to meas a stepping stone for people
of all walks of life to be ableto just take their first step
towards something greater andlive a life that they're meant
to live, feeling supported bythe universe in ways that they

(48:07):
never thought they would besupported and have actionable
steps that would lead themtowards a happier, more
fulfilled life because and notfeel alone. Gosh. To live life
not feeling alone is so amazing.
So I have to say that alone isincredible.

Wendy (48:23):
Yes. To have invisible friends or a friend is really
comforting, and it's nice toknow that you have support all
the time if you choose toconnect with it. And that's what
you're inviting folks to to do.So

Happy (48:41):
what

Wendy (48:41):
are the ways in which you work with people?

Happy (48:43):
So I have one on one coaching that I used to do with
people, and I've kind of stoppeddoing that unless somebody
really wants it. But I reallyhave discovered group coaching
really fun when it comes tointuition because you get to
watch other people stumble andfall and some people succeed and

(49:06):
they give you hope. So that'sone of my favorite things to do.
Of course, I have courses thatare online and people can just
take the courses on their own.But I when it comes to single
person, like a transformation,you're going through something,
then, of course, I work withthem 1 on 1.
I do hypnotherapy. I have thisincredible this is one thing you
you can't do in group coaching,which is I do this hypnotherapy.

(49:29):
I call it intuition activation,higher self connection
hypnotherapy. And you bring me 4questions, and I take you down
to the deepest layers that youallow me to take you through
hypnosis. And then I ask yourhigher self or inner self or
subconscious those questionsthat you brought me, and you
answer your own questions.
And you get to get the questionsanswered from the highest

(49:53):
version of you with a biggerperspective, then I have the
higher self show you the futureif you follow your own advice.
Oh. And you get to be in thatmoment and withdraw and extract
the vibration of it and cementit in your body. So when you
come back, you can startmanifesting that life. So that's
my most successful singlesession that I do, but I am some

(50:17):
of the coaching, online thegroup coaching sold out, so I
need to set up some new ones.
But it's more fun. I like 10 or20 people just to have fun with
me. And when you tell yoursubconscious that it's important
enough for you to put 3 hours aweek aside to explore your
intuitive abilities, that'salready telling your

(50:37):
subconscious that this isimportant for me. Or if you pay
money for a course, it means Ivalue this. Therefore, I want to
see results.
And then the filtration systemthat usually filters out the
intuitive stuff starts puttingstuff in there. So I think a
regular practice is imperativeif you wanna see results.

Wendy (50:57):
Do you use the word discipline?

Happy (50:59):
Yeah. Yeah. Of course. Of course. I just hate that word
because I'm not verydisciplined.
But yeah.

Wendy (51:04):
Well, yeah. And nobody really likes

Happy (51:06):
that. So not disciplined. Yes.

Wendy (51:08):
But it is kind of an ingredient.

Happy (51:09):
No. No. It's absolutely the best word ever.

Wendy (51:11):
Stick to it.

Happy (51:12):
Can use it. I am just so not disciplined. I'm so bad
about it.

Wendy (51:17):
You have prophetic death dreams, but you don't wanna use
the word discipline.

Happy (51:22):
No. I it is a discipline, and you didn't need to practice.
And and and like anything else,it's an art. So the better Yeah.
You the more you do it, thebetter it gets.
And doing it with other peoplereally does help than doing it
alone because sometimes when youdo it alone, it just feels like
you're stuck. But if you do theexercises, then you really do
see some results and sometimesyou get really motivated to keep

(51:44):
going. And but if you findyourself that you need a
community, then you can go to mywebsite, which is happy insights
dot net, or my Instagram, whichis happy insights official where
my links are, and sign up for,one of the courses. It's really
fun. It's just 3 hours of funonce a week for 12 weeks, and

(52:05):
it's just like you build afamily and it's just really fun.

Wendy (52:08):
Alright. That sounds great. I will put links in the
show notes. Happy. Thank you somuch for coming on.

Happy (52:15):
Of course. Thank you so much for having me, Wendy. It's
been a pleasure. Well,

Wendy (52:20):
I wholeheartedly agree. Connecting with your intuition
should be fun. You can sign upfor one of Happy's online
