Mother's Day and Father's Day are not simple holidays for a lot of people. Not everyone has their parents on this side. Not everyone who is a parent has their child on this side. And for some of us, the relationship that existed wasn't the kind that greeting cards are written about.

This episode is for all of you.

I'm sharing real stories from my world — readings, clients, and people who've just told me their story in the middle of life — of how people are honoring their parents and children in spirit in ways that are so personal, so unexpected, and so full of love that I just had to share them with you.

And then we're getting into the question I hear more than almost any other: do they still know? Are they aware of us on these days? Do they feel the love we're sending?

Yes. They do. And I some receipts.

If these holidays bring up anything complicated, quiet, or heavy for you — this one's for you.

What does it actually look like when Spirit says hello in the middle of real life — not in a session, not when you're meditating, but when you're stressed, running late, and barely paying attention?

I just got back from Las Vegas and I have to tell you… Spirit showed up in ways I was not expecting. Some of it made me laugh. Some of it stopped me in my tracks. And all of it reminded me why I never stop being in awe of how our loved ones find ways to reach us.

I'm sharing the whole thing with you in this episode — and more importantly, I'm breaking it down so you can start recognizing the signs that are already showing up in your life.

You'll learn:

• How Spirit uses look-alikes, names, music, and numbers to get your attention
• Why signs are so personal they might not make sense to anyone else — and why that's the point
• How to set up a specific sign for a trip (or any season of life)
• Why not receiving signs in dreams doesn't mean your loved ones aren't reaching out
• What happens when Spirit uses YOU to open someone else's heart

If you've ever wondered "was that really a sign?" — this one's for you.

Ever wonder what your soul has experienced before this lifetime—or what unseen influences are shaping your path right now? In this episode, you’ll learn what the Akashic Records are really all about—and how you can begin to access this powerful, energetic archive of your soul’s journey.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

Can you feel it — something is bubbling. Spring 2026 is packed with real opportunities already in motion, but with so much happening at once it's dangerously easy to get caught up in the wrong things and miss the biggest blessings entirely. The question isn't whether the opportunities are coming. It's whether you'll be ready to grab them when they do.

For the first time on Spirit Speakeasy, I'm doing a full month-by-month energy and potential reading for the entire spring quarter — April, May and June — breaking down the overall energy, the potential challenges to watch for, and the blessings already in motion for each month.

There are also two big announcements in this episode, including a brand new addition to the podcast every single week — and a one-day-only opportunity to get a free live personal mini reading with me on May 4th.

The energy is already in motion — let this episode be your guiding light for navigating April, May and June.

Ever wonder if a loved one’s quirks, humor, or even their stubborn streak survive beyond death? In this eye-opening episode of Spirit Speakeasy, we explore what actually happens to our personality after we die.

As a professional psychic medium with thousands of spirit conversations under my belt, I’ve seen time and again how distinct, recognizable personalities show up from the spirit world—complete with jokes, sass, and sentimental streaks.

Whether you're healing after loss or just deeply curious about the continuity of consciousness, this episode will help you:

• Understand what does and doesn’t shift after we cross over
• Hear real stories and examples of spirit people communicating with their own sense of humor, quirks, or preferences
• Discover why personality in the spirit world matters for healing unresolved relationships
• Learn how the essence of who we are shines through in readings—even decades after passing

✨ This isn’t just a philosophical chat—it’s grounded in firsthand experience, surprising messages directly from loved ones in the spirit world and a few moments that might just make you laugh.
