Grab your favorite mug andsettle in and let's get started.
Hello and welcome here today.
I am so happy to talk aboutcoming out of my spiritual

(00:44):
closet and how it happened withmy husband.
And the thing is it'sinteresting because it's really
difficult when you're a psychicmedium to tell a potential
boyfriend that you have a giftor that you know you're
sensitive to energies or you'rea psychic, or you're medium or

(01:06):
empath or whatever it is thatyou're gifted with.
And it was difficult for mebecause it was something that
wasn't readily accepted in otherrelationships that I had
experienced, and so you know,men automatically thought that I
could read their minds andtrust me.
I've been asked that so manytimes.
But the thing is I can't.

(01:28):
I'm not a mentalist, I'm apsychic medium.
There's a big difference Now.
When I met my husband, we haddecided to just be very good
friends because both of us hadhad the same kind of trust
issues and we weren't reallyready to start dating people,
but we had agreed that we couldkind of hang out together

(01:50):
because, honestly, he was thegreatest guy.
We had such a great timetogether and over the months we
had become very, very goodfriends.
So one day he called me up andhe said hey, what are you doing
on Sunday?
And I said right now nothing.
I have no plans.
So he said you know.
He says why did you come over?

(02:10):
He says and bring your tea.
He says my friend Dave iscoming over with his video games
.
And he says we're going to beplaying video games.
And he says I thought you knowyou might want to come and kill
a couple hours and meet myfriend Dave.
And so I told him.
I said that would be great, Iwould love to meet Dave.
I met Dave.
I went over that Sunday and wesat in the living room, had tea,

(02:33):
coffee and the greatest laughs.
I mean this Dave was hilariousand Brad is like a card, and so
I was having a great time.
I mean who the hell has to goto?
Yuck, yucks, not me.
I just had to go over to Brad'sand be entertained by these two
, right?
And so we were sitting therehaving a great time and I
decided to go to the kitchen tomake myself another cup of tea.

(02:56):
So I'm boiling the water andgetting my bag ready and
everything, and all of a suddenI get this like freaking,
overwhelming feeling thatthere's a spirit right behind me
.
And then I felt a mother's loveand it was so overwhelming.
And then I could see like thisvisual of like a woman riding on

(03:18):
a horse but falling off.
And then suddenly I felt likean overwhelming feeling of like
despair and loneliness and Ifelt like I lost my very best
friend.
I felt like crying and I didn'tknow why I was feeling that and
seeing these things.
And then suddenly I had thislike download of seeing this

(03:41):
woman sitting on a living roomfloor.
It was kind of somber and darkand that she was kind of rocking
back and forth and being verysad and perhaps crying.
You know I couldn't quite seeher face, but I could see that
the spirit was showing me this.
And so I'm trying to make senseof this and I'm trying not to
cry when Brad walks into thekitchen.

(04:02):
So I'm trying like to get myshit together right and I'm
trying to like roll my eyes up.
So my eyes are tearing up a bit.
And so he comes in and he goeshey, what are you doing?
And I said I'm making tea and Itried to get my back to him.
So he comes around and he looksat me.
He goes Are you okay?
And I said oh, I'm fine.

(04:23):
I said I'm great.
And he goes what's the matter?
He says you look so sad.
And I said no, no, I'm fine.
And he goes look.
He says you're talking to Bradhere.
He says I know there'ssomething wrong.
He says did I say, or did Davesay anything to offend you?
And I said oh my God, no.
I said no, brad.
I said not at all.
I said you know?
I said not at all.

(04:43):
I said you know.
I said I have to be very honestwith you and I said it's not
something that I really want totalk about here, so maybe we can
wait till Dave leaves and Icould tell you, like, what's
going on.
And he said no, jay, honestly.
He says you need to tell me now.
He says because Dave's going tobe here for about another hour.
And he says I can't wait thatlong.
So I said to him, I said I hada vision of a woman who's giving

(05:09):
me the impression that youreally need to call your sister.
He goes, my sister.
I said I think that's what I'mgetting here.
I said I keep on seeing a womansitting on a floor and it's
like really dark like in theliving room, and I said she's
like kind of rocking back andforth or crying.
And I said the woman that felloff a horse when you were very

(05:32):
young is here in spirit.
And I said I'm a psychic medium.
And I said I'm feeling this andI said this woman is telling me
that you need to call thissister of yours.
I said I'm assuming you havethe one sister because we've
talked about that.
And he says yes, he says shelives in Nova Scotia, jay.
He says but he goes.

(05:52):
I don't understand what you'retalking about.
What woman that fell off ahorse?
I said the woman that passedaway 30 years ago.
And he says well, my motherpassed away 30 years ago.
I said did she fall off a horsewhen you were about seven years
old?
He said yes.
I said is your favorite pudding, pistachio?

(06:13):
And then he looked at me and hewent oh my God, jay, he goes.
My mother used to make me thatall the time.
He says all the time it was theonly thing she loved to make
the best out of all the thingsshe loved to make.
I said well, she's telling meyou need to call your sister.
And he says well, jay, he saysI'm going to call my sister once

(06:34):
Dave leaves.
He says but if there's nothingwrong with my sister, I don't
know how I'm going to feel aboutall of this.
He says if you understand whatI'm saying.
And I said to him I get it.
I said but there's somethinggoing on with your sister and
you need to call her.
So we walked into the livingroom and as we sat down, that

(07:01):
phone rang and it rang reallyloud, I think louder than any
phone I've ever heard.
It's almost like we were reallysupposed to pay attention to
that phone ringing.
And he picked it up and helooked at the display and he
said to me it's my sister.
So he smiled and he answeredthe phone and immediately
started telling his sister tocalm down.
She was very distraught, shehad received some very difficult

(07:23):
news and needed to talk tosomebody, and the thing is she
had then expressed to him thatshe didn't know what to do.
She had been sitting on thefloor in the middle of her
living room just not knowingwhat to do.
She was very, very upset andtearful and that she really was
thankful that he had answeredthe telephone.

(07:44):
So they talked for a bit andthen I told him, after he hung
up the phone, that he needed totell her, once I was gone and
once they were able to talk alittle bit more, that his mother
sends a message that everythingwill be okay and that the
medical treatment and surgeriesthat the person is supposed to

(08:07):
get is going to be verysuccessful and treatment will
not be required.
And so he did pass along thatmessage to her later and that's
exactly what happened thatperson didn't require the
treatment after their surgery,which was extremely and
thankfully, very successful.

(08:29):
And so spirit comes to us in theweirdest of times, I know.
For me it's constant.
People ask me you know, couldyou turn that off?
As I've mentioned before, Ican't, and the thing is I really
didn't want to reveal mydeepest, darkest secrets and
come out of my spiritual closetwith Brad.
But I'm so thankful that I did,because to this day I'm still

(08:52):
with this man and if it wasn'tfor him and the love that he has
for people.
If it wasn't for him, honestly,I wouldn't even be doing this
job today, because he's the onethat encouraged me to quit my
job and to follow my passion andto really, you know, just be

(09:14):
who I am, and I'm so thankful.
I'm so thankful for that daythat his mother came to me in
spirit and made me feel soterrible, because it created a
bond between the two of us, andI'm just so thankful.
I'm just so thankful for mylife.
But I had to share that withall of you because I'm sure a

(09:37):
lot of you must wonder if youknow he asks about those things
or if he has these types ofexperiences.
But yes, we do in Ashley.
So does he.
He's actually very sensitive,so we will talk about that in
another podcast.
But thank you so much,everybody, and remember to be

(09:59):
kind to one another.
We really need to be kind toothers.
Life is too short to bemiserable.
