One of my favorite movies was on TCM the other night: A Hard Day’s Night is celebrating its 50th anniversary. Watching it again, I found myself smiling, laughing and dancing along to the Beatles music in my pajamas. I started thinking about one of the reasons the Fab Four were such a break-out phenomenon: its widely thought …

Can Anyone Be A Medium?
So I was just at this weekend workshop for advanced mediumship training – always good to tune things up, learn some new skills, stretch a little. During a break, I was chatting with one of the other students about what we did, etc. I made a comment that I believe everyone has psychic ability. She …
What Happens to Suicide Victims?
One of the biggest reasons that I wrote my book, OK, So You’re Dead: A Sassy Guide to the Afterlife was to provide comfort. Over the years, I’ve accumulated enough experiences and insights to provide some understanding of this major event in our lives. Death is a total game changer, and the manner in which …
A Prayer for Malaysian Flight 370
Like most of us, I’ve been caught up in this mystery surrounding Malaysian Air Flight 370. In our hyperconnected world, it seems incomprehensible that a jumbo jet could simply disappear without a trace. There’s plenty of speculation on what may or may not have happened – that will be for the experts to determine. Some …
My Field Guide to the Other Side
Kinda excited this morning. I got up, fed the kitties, grabbed some coffee and logged on to see that my new book was uploaded to Amazon overnight! This was one of those “aha” moments; over my time as a reader, I’ve gotten the same 25-30 questions hundreds of times. Each. So I decided to share …
What If the Dead Came Back?
Last night, I saw a promo for an upcoming TV show called Resurrection. From what I can tell, it poses the question, “What if someone who died came back?” The promo featured people aghast at this chance for a do-over. I’m sure the show is going to go all murder-victim-comes-back-to-freak-out-their-killer at some point, but the …
How to Do An EVP Session
You’re not the only one who digs having a new phone or iPad. Spirits looovvvve anything electronic. I’m not sure why this is, except that gadgets of the electric kind make it easier for spirit to let us know they’re around. Throughout the ages, spirit has used human “stuff” to give us a sense of …
Boo! Some Thoughts On Ghosts
Last night, I was still in a food coma from Thanksgiving and all its leftovers, so I found myself on the couch watching a marathon of one of those ghost/haunting shows. Things flying through the air, funky smells, noises, apparitions, lots of screaming people. Made me happy for my quiet little un-haunted house. But it …
Bringing A Dream Back to Life
I love Facebook, mainly for the way it helps us reconnect with people from our past – like my college roommate. She posted something today that made me recall how frikkin’ smart she always was – even if most of the time, we couldn’t see it through all the pot smoke and Southern Comfort haze …
Sylvia Browne, The Imperfect Psychic
I was saddened to see that Sylvia Browne passed away. Although I got the feeling that she had been sick for awhile – she didn’t look good in some recent pictures. So I’m glad she’s at peace and romping on the Other Side. That must be some party. Anyway, as I was scanning the news …
