A
Foreign. Michaela Spiritual Family. Welcome to know your aura with Mystic Michaela today. How are the holidays? A really special time to connect with those who have crossed over. I am going to talk about ways to connect with those on the other side who want to come over during this holiday season, as well as share some mediumship stories from our very own Mystic Michaela Spiritual Family. But first. Hey, Scotty.
- [00:33]
B
Hey, guys. Let's talk about the holidays in general. To start here. Obviously, you know, love the time of year. Right. A lot of joy and. Yeah, all that. And it's supposed to be a lovely time. Friends, family, etc. But I'm sure there's a lot of people out there that maybe dread this time of year. Maybe they actually dread Christmas Day or something like that. And the reason being, maybe they've lost someone. Maybe they can't handle the memories of that person being around at that time and them not being there anymore to celebrate that holiday. So it's very interesting. I think we really got to delve into that today.
- [01:13]
A
Yeah.
- [01:15]
B
But first, you actually had an interesting thing happen to you just recently about your grandfather coming through.
- [01:22]
A
Yeah.
- [01:23]
B
And maybe we'll start with you telling that story, and then we'll get more into, like, kind of the signs of why it happens during the holiday season. Maybe a little bit more than usual. Right.
- [01:32]
A
And just, like, side note. Yeah. I do mediumship all day, like, for other people, but when it happens for me, I'm still like, ooh, you know, it's.
- [01:41]
B
So when it happens to you.
- [01:43]
A
Yeah, when happens to. Yeah, to me, I'm always just as, like, shocked and surprised as, like, anyone else. I always feel like my people. I call my people. I always feel like my people around me. But when they surprise me, like, the story I'm about to tell.
- [01:59]
B
Yeah, no, that happens a lot. Cause, like. And I always say that to you because I'm like, well, you do this for a living. You connect people to loved ones, do your mediumship thing, do your psychic readings, and then what happens to you? You're, like, in shock. And I'm like, wait a second. Don't you do this for a living?
- [02:13]
A
Well, you know what it is? It's very validating. Like, for me as a person, I love validating other people. And, like, I always say, when someone you love dies, you become the medium.
- [02:23]
B
Right.
- [02:23]
A
All right. So when I'm able to witness that in other people, it. I mean, obviously, like, that's my life passion, and I love it when it happens. For me, it's like, oh, my Gosh, you know, it's like, oh, met me, you know, like that. Like, I never win anything. Like that kind of thing. So this is my story. So this happened last week. So I don't know why. I was in my closet and I decided to try on an old winter coat. I do not know why I live in Florida. It is perpetually 80 degrees here all the time. And I'm like, you know what? I don't know. My fingers just went. I had to unzip it from its dry cleaner, bag, everything, and I put it on. Why did I do that? I don't know. Put my hands in the pocket, pull out a piece of paper. Immediately I'm like, oh, wow. It was what I read. It was the reading from Isaiah. I read it at my grandfather's funeral. Funeral. So there. The last time I must have worn this coat was for my grandfather's funeral. And then all of a sudden, I'm like, wait a second. Okay, this was. This happened on December 6th. And I'm like, when did I. When did he die? Like, what? This? Because, I mean, I felt something. I felt like, this is a connection. I felt like a personal feeling with this, and I felt my grandfather. And so I text my dad, and I have this text. I made, like, a story about it, too. I text my dad. I'm like, hey, when did Papa Pat die? Now, remind to remind you this is all happening on 12, 6. My dad writes, will happen on 12, 7, 10.
- [03:55]
B
Okay, so 2010.
- [03:57]
A
And. Yeah, so December 7, 2010, is okay. I didn't remember that. You know what I mean? I'm not one that keeps track of the death dates of people. Some people do. I don't.
- [04:06]
B
He decided he died on December 7th.
- [04:09]
A
Of 2010, and this happened on December 6th, 2025.
- [04:13]
B
Oh, that's interesting, too, because that's December 7th. Pearl Harbor Day.
- [04:17]
A
Yeah.
- [04:18]
B
And he fought in World War II.
- [04:19]
A
He did.
- [04:20]
B
And always used to tell stories.
- [04:23]
A
He always talked about that all the time.
- [04:24]
B
Okay, sorry, continue.
- [04:25]
A
No, yeah, it was. Yeah, I thought that, too.
- [04:26]
B
Yeah, that's kind of.
- [04:27]
A
Yeah, I know. He was a real history buff, him.
- [04:29]
B
Yes, he was. Yes, he was.
- [04:30]
A
And he lived it. So it was, like, cool.
- [04:32]
B
And he lived it.
- [04:33]
A
He loved to talk about it, but yes. So I immediately was like, oh, my gosh. Papa Pants. I call him Papa Pat. Papa Pat's talking to me. It's like my mom's dad. Papa Pat's talking to me. Oh, my gosh. Like, I felt so connected in that moment. And, you know, I texted my dad. And like, everybody's kind of just like, you know, like, I run downstairs, I'm like, scott, guess what? You're like, oh, cool. You know, like, I tell the kids, they're like, okay. You know, for me, though, I was. Don't let other people's reactions diminish your own. Like, that is lesson number one. When you get a sign, um, what you felt in that moment is the most important thing. I. And I just feel so connected and happy and just, like, happy that he came through and gave me a message. And I just. I love you, Papa. That was. You know, he really saw me. So.
- [05:21]
B
So that would have been 15 years ago. Yes, basically to the day.
- [05:25]
A
Yeah.
- [05:25]
B
Does the numbers play into this at all or all the time?
- [05:29]
A
Yeah. Like, beyond holidays, like, birthdays, anniversaries, death days. I mean, important event days, your birthday. These are times when the Val. I'm going to talk about this coming up in the next segment. But the VAL is thin. So when something happens, my first thought is, what day is this? What happened today? Like, for me, I knew. I'm like. Because I texted my dad, I'm like, hey, when did Papa Pat die? Because I just had this feeling, was it around this time of year? Or whatever. Whose birthday is this? What's going on? You know, that's the first thing. Because the val's thin on dates that are crossover points for whatever reason, and it's easier to connect with people on the other side with numbers.
- [06:09]
B
So have you. So you Let me just get this straight. So in the 15 years you had this coat in your had this coat in the closet for 15 years, you've never tried it on or anything? Because we did a couple of winter trips in that in the last 15 years.
- [06:21]
A
A very fancy winter coat.
- [06:23]
B
Okay.
- [06:25]
A
I put this on my stories and somebody wrote, oh, yeah, that's a very. That's up north funeral fancy. I'm like, it is like, it's an up. It's a funeral fancy coat. You know, like, it's very. It's. It's classic.
- [06:36]
B
Do you remember? Okay. I don't know if you're gonna remember.
- [06:38]
A
Yeah.
- [06:38]
B
Do you ever. Do you remember in the last 15 years trying it on?
- [06:42]
A
I don't.
- [06:43]
B
You don't?
- [06:44]
A
No. I would, like, look at it because it was. It's just been in my closet.
- [06:48]
B
But you never.
- [06:49]
A
I've never took it off. And all the times I've gone back in the winter up north, I never brought it with me.
- [06:55]
B
Right.
- [06:57]
A
Yeah, I know. So it's just. It's Weird. And I. There's no reason why I would have tried it on.
- [07:01]
B
Yeah.
- [07:01]
A
It's just random. Like, why did I. What prompted me to put that on? Well, that's spirit moving through me.
- [07:07]
B
Right.
- [07:07]
A
You know, and how many times do we get some sort of. Just kind of feeling like we want to do something and we. Like, I don't have time for this or shrug it off or something. For whatever reason I did it. And just so you know, like, my closet is very purple aura coated, so I had to walk through piles of things. Like, it's right there, but it's still, like, it's an ordeal to get it out. But, yeah, so it was crazy. So I put. I. So I had the reading, and it was. It was just. That's the last time I. I wore it.
- [07:34]
B
That's incredible. No, it was really neat, I. I guess, you know. Yes. I remember when you coming down and telling me that, and I thought it was.
- [07:41]
A
You're like, cool.
- [07:41]
B
Yeah. I was just like, yeah, it's cool. And then I went back to watching the football game. But.
- [07:45]
A
Yeah, but. But you know what?
- [07:48]
B
It's. It's so commonplace here that maybe, like, sometimes you overlook those. Maybe. And that's maybe what people do. It's like you maybe just sometimes you can overlook it.
- [07:57]
A
You can overlook it or a lot. A lot of what I hear. And this is why, please, if you take nothing from this podcast, from all the years listening to it, take what I'm about to say. It happened. You know, believe it. Okay. Because a lot of times I could spin this another way in more 3D logic. I could be like, well, did you just try it on? Because I don't know.
- [08:18]
B
Yeah. And that's what I was trying to do. I was trying to do that to you a couple minutes ago by saying, oh, did you try it on?
- [08:23]
A
Have you tried before? Is there some reason why you tried it on? Maybe, you know, like that, you know, sure, if you want to. Like, if you want to take the. If you want to suck the magic out, sure, do it. But honestly, isn't it worth playing the quote fool for believing it? If that means that on the. If there's even the slightest possibility, the most minuscule possibility on the other side that they sent that message to you, and you know how much energy it takes people on the other side to send a message. It takes so much energy for them to send you a message. And when you, like, shut it down, it's like, oh, like punch in the gut. Like, oh, God. Like, it's Worth playing the fool. You know, that's what I always say for that chance, even that, okay, it was received. Okay. Because that's love. You know, you play. We play the fool for love. I know that. I wasn't playing the fool. I know this was my grandfather. But I have been doing this a long time and it's not new to me. And I totally understand why some people, you know, are just surrounded by different philosophies their whole life. So it can be a little bit like, well, maybe it wasn't real. And I don't know why we have to suck magic out of things because we don't want to play the fool.
- [09:34]
B
Okay. You know? All right, let's take a quick break. We'll come back and we're going to talk about signs during the holidays.
- [09:40]

- [11:08]
B
Hey, guys. All right, so it's the time of year where, you know, you really might want to connect with someone who has passed a loved one and, you know, maybe you're really feeling it. You're. What do you, what do. What do you guys say? You're in your. I'm in my fields.
- [11:21]
A
I'm in the field.
- [11:21]
B
I'm in the field. My fields. You know, it's the holiday season and you really do want to connect with somebody.
- [11:27]
A
Yes.
- [11:28]
B
To make, you know, maybe to give you just a sense of comfort.
- [11:31]
A
Yes.
- [11:31]
B
Okay, so what are we going to look for here? How are we going to connect? What are we going to do?
- [11:36]
A
Okay, so the first thing is it's. It's not like a one way conversation, you know, so we can't just sit there and wait for them to call us. Sometimes we have to do what I do. Yes, sometimes you have to start the conversation. I wrote a whole book about this, by the way, the Book of Signs. When a big part of why I wanted to write it is we can communicate back. Like we can start a conversation and there's different ways to do that. One of them holiday coded like this time of year is traditions. Traditions, memory. Anything that has to do with memory is a poor. You could think of it like a porn all. It's like dialing their phone number. It's like that but through. All right. Every Christmas Eve we used to sit by the fire and read this book to the kids or you know, things like that. Like do something that was a repetitive happy memory and do it in your own way, but doing it in a way that is bringing their memory with it. Also forcing. It's really hard when somebody dies to talk about them for a while. I think it can be. It's very, it's very hard. And forcing yourself when you're comfortable to start bringing them up in terms of the memories, I think is all telling your kids, telling the nieces, the nephews be like, hey, remember dad used to always make this joke, remember? You know that is so powerful when we. It gives them a seat at the table still and it allows for them to work, have more opportunity to kind of work their energy and the ways that they're able to communicate. When you do that. I think a lot of it too is the perspective of sadness has to shift a little bit. And this is, this is. Everyone has their own way of doing this but by the way and their own timeline. But a lot of us want to avoid feeling sad and avoid like sitting in it. And that can be a hindrance to them being able to come through. It's okay to be sad. It's okay to mingle that with joy. People who've really experienced loss know this better than anyone else. You live with it in you. Like you don't Fill that hole, you work around it, and you learn to grow a garden around that void. You know, that's what you learn to do. And. And it's not easy, and it's a reinvention of self. But practicing that through holiday traditions and talking about them and remembering things is. Is one way to do it. Another. Like, I'm talking about, like, cooking a dish that your aunt used to make or using the same china or talking about, like. Like memories. And the other thing is, like, religious practices, a lot of us maybe aren't the same religion or we're not practicing what we were brought up in. For example, you don't have to throw that out just because you don't identify with the practices anymore. You know, like, for me, for example, I have a nativity scene. You know, like, that is something that I have. I was raised Catholic. I have my nativity scene. I put it out. It. It gives me that feeling of connection to everyone who came before me. So you can still practice religious practices. Just put your own spin on it that makes you feel comfortable, and put your own belief on it that makes you feel okay. That brings them in, too. Like all these traditions and practices and these moments, if you think about it, it's like your hand reaching through the veil and grabbing theirs.
- [15:03]
B
Okay. I mean, I have some questions.
- [15:05]
A
Okay.
- [15:07]
B
You want me to wait?
- [15:08]
A
No.
- [15:08]
B
Okay, go ahead. Well, first off, like, let's say it's too. Let's say it's just too painful for you and you don't want. You know, let's say you just don't want. Yeah, the signs. Like, let's say, you know, it's just real painful.
- [15:19]
A
Oh, yeah.
- [15:20]
B
You just can't handle it.
- [15:21]
A
Yeah. Especially at the beginning.
- [15:22]
B
And maybe, like, if they gave you that sign, you just lose it.
- [15:25]
A
Yeah.
- [15:26]
B
Is that so? What would you. I mean, I don't. Maybe you just. What do you do then?
- [15:29]
A
Or. That's very normal. There's no wrong way to feel.
- [15:33]
B
Yeah.
- [15:33]
A
I think it takes time. It takes every. Like I said, everybody has their own timeline of receiving signs. And some people can be like, why don't I get a sign? Like, why. Why did they forget me? Why am I forgotten?
- [15:46]
B
That was gonna be my next question.
- [15:48]
A
Yeah, like, you can feel forgotten, or you can feel like, not ready, or you can just feel, like, numb. You know, there's lots of different ways to feel, and nothing's wrong and anything you feel is fine. I feel like if you don't want to receive signs and you're not ready yet, make your Own traditions. Like, do something different. Like, you don't have to. You don't have to host this year. I told this story before. I had this one client, her mom always. Her birthday was always around Thanksgiving, and she just couldn't. And her mom died. They're so close, and she just couldn't do it. So she's like, I go. She went on a cruise that year, you know, she's like, I'm going on a cruise, like, for that birthday, Thanksgiving. So that's what I'm doing. And it's a Band Aid. That is fine. You know what I mean? Like, you gotta do what you can manage emotionally. A lot of these things take years to build up for. What if you feel forgotten? Like, why aren't I getting signs? Yeah.
- [16:41]
B
Like me, you know, I make a joke. Like, all right, give me a sign now. And it just never happens. Or I'm just like, why don't they ever give me a sign? Phoebe, what's going on?
- [16:50]
A
Give me a sign.
- [16:51]
B
And it just doesn't happen for me.
- [16:52]
A
Right?
- [16:53]
B
Happens for you all the time.
- [16:54]
A
It does happen for you. And the fact that you say this is so mean. Fine. To your dead people.
- [17:00]
B
Sometimes it happens for me. With you helping me, I guess.
- [17:04]
A
Like, your cousin Annette, like, threw a glass of wine at your mother.
- [17:07]
B
Two.
- [17:07]
A
Yeah, two. Two glasses of wine. Like, that's a good one.
- [17:10]
B
Good job, Annette.
- [17:11]
A
Yeah, but that's a good one, you know?
- [17:12]
B
Yeah, that. Well, that one, that was awesome.
- [17:14]
A
Like, what more do you want? Like, that's awesome, but I can see.
- [17:17]
B
All right, but let's say you're kind of like, I'll just be that person.
- [17:20]
A
Okay.
- [17:20]
B
I'll just pretend I'm that person then. Okay, I'm the person. I'm just not getting the signs, and it's making me even sadder.
- [17:26]
A
But you found a check for Hanukkah that she wrote, like, after her death. And the following year, you were in the glove compartment and you find it, her card and her check that she would always write even though you were a grown adult, she would always write you.
- [17:39]
B
She's strong. She's strong.
- [17:40]
A
A check for Hanukkah. And you were like, I probably just forgot to take it out of the glove compartment. And it's like, well, she's strong. This is what I live with people.
- [17:47]
B
You understand?
- [17:48]
A
And I'm like, no, she just said hello to you. She's saying, happy, Hana, here's the thing.
- [17:55]
B
Honestly, I do believe it. I have to, at this point, believe it. I mean, I've Just seen so much stuff.
- [18:01]
A
Right.
- [18:01]
B
My toilet paper's been stamped by a paranormal entity. Okay, I've seen so much stuff, I believe it. I just like to play devil's advocate. Yeah, well, I like to go through all the scenarios to see if it could be something else.
- [18:16]
A
Yes, you're a magic sucker. It's fine.
- [18:18]
B
That's right.
- [18:19]
A
Every family has a few and it's okay. But then, but then there's me. And then like I'm more like the coolant.
- [18:25]
B
But I believe.
- [18:26]
A
Like, hey, I know.
- [18:28]
B
But I truly do believe it. I honestly, I do believe.
- [18:31]
A
Yeah.
- [18:31]
B
And I actually, I do get more science than I, than I tell than I lead to. Phoebe and me are a little bit on, on odds.
- [18:37]
A
But we're talking about dead people.
- [18:38]
B
But dead people. Yeah, we're talking about dead people.
- [18:40]
A
They're around, they're around a lot. No.
- [18:41]
B
All right, so. But in all seriousness, but let's say you, you are, you really are not connecting to that one person.
- [18:46]
A
Yeah. Why am I getting the signs?
- [18:47]
B
Why am I not getting the signs?
- [18:49]
A
So like I said, you gotta start. Sometimes you gotta start the conversation. So think about who you really wanna sign from and start doing things first of all, like assign them a sign. You know, like this holiday season, if I see, you know, mistletoe, that's.
- [19:05]
B
Is that trying too hard? Like, are you.
- [19:07]
A
Who cares?
- [19:08]
B
It doesn't matter.
- [19:08]
A
Just do it. Because what's, and that's. And I'm glad you brought that up because that's the initial like ego response. Like, oh, I'm going to be looking for it, therefore it's not real. Right. I'll maybe, maybe the first couple times. But then it's going to start getting flipping weird to the point where all of a sudden people are sending you cards with mistletoe on it. Or somebody or your little two year old cousin comes up and says mistletoe to you. Or just like weird all of a sudden. So you got to start the conversation. You might also want to do something that they used to do, for example, you know? You know, like I said, like, maybe you really want to connect to your mom. And she always made this pie. Make the pie, make it in her bakeware. Make it, serve it to people. You know, just do something that brings them so close to you in memory and then see what you feel during it. See what happens during it. See, see what happens afterwards. So, yeah, you do have to kind of start the conversation a bit.
- [20:01]
B
Now let me ask you this question. Now I'm going to get A little bit weird here. I'm going to get a little woo woo.
- [20:06]
A
Okay. Okay.
- [20:07]
B
Because I don't know what happens once we die. I have no idea what goes on, what processes there are wherever we may go. I mean we've talked about going to other planets or people from other planets coming like starseeds, right?
- [20:20]
A
Yeah.
- [20:21]
B
And all that kind of stuff. So what if just putting this out there, the person that you want to connect with was passed, you know, and you really want to connect them and you're trying and you're putting all these things out that you're saying and you've read the book of signs by mystic Michaela and you know everything, right?
- [20:36]
A
Yeah.
- [20:37]
B
But let's say that person that passes, they're. And I'll just call it this, they're on vacation at Aruba. They decided that they're going to do something else.
- [20:47]
A
Right. Is that they're quiet in spirit or they've moved on their energy. Like reincarnation or something like that.
- [20:52]
B
Exactly.
- [20:53]
A
Or maybe, or. Or they don't connect because they had such a traumatic passing.
- [20:57]
B
Okay.
- [20:57]
A
Sometimes I'll get that. When people have like for example, passed, died by suicide or people who had such a traumatic passing, they're not ready to come through yet. Right. Okay. So everyone's different and people on the other side are different too. What I notice. So it, it does vary person to person who's passed. What I notice is some people do feel far away, further away than others and you're going to get less signs from them. These tend to be like older people that have been dead for quite a while. So if you're connecting with like, that's why I was really surprised. My papa packing through because he died at like 93. And that was 15 years ago.
- [21:37]
B
15 years ago.
- [21:37]
A
So I was like, wow, I can't believe it came through. You know what I mean? Like that. But anyways. But sometimes like older people who are very ready to die and ready, very ready to move on, sometimes they can kind of. I think I feel what it is is they move like they reincarnate or their energy moves forward, but there's vestiges of their energy that still kind of remain like higher self energies that can still kind of communicate. So that's one. And then people who've died traumatically, sometimes you just got to give them time. So all of a sudden like you, it might be like 15 years before you get something, a sign or some sort and you just have to give them time to. Some people have to recover on the Other side. And that is something that is. Those are exceptions to the rule.
- [22:17]
B
Okay. But it could put it. But it's possible.
- [22:19]
A
Yeah. I'll never forget. Like, I read this woman. Oh, my God. Some of these readings just stick with me. This is like years ago, a woman came and her best friend had died, and she was a mom of like, three. Three young children. She died of breast cancer. She did not want to die. And she came through just like. It was awful, you know, like she was, you're okay. On the other side, like, that is home, but nobody wants to leave their kids. You know what I mean? And that's just a fact. And she's okay and she's safe and all that. But sometimes they're grieving too. On the other side, they're grieving their life, and they're grieving that they don't have control over being here anymore, you know, so they're just people. We're all just people. And when you cross over, you don't not become who you are, you know, like, you kind of stay the semblance of that. So you also have to take in consideration. Yeah. Somebody's circumstances, how they passed, and also their personality. Okay.
- [23:14]
B
All right. If I have any more questions.
- [23:16]
A
Oh, I'm sure they'll come up.
- [23:17]
B
I'm sure they will come up, but for now, I'm good.
- [23:19]
A
Okay.
- [23:20]
B
All right, we'll take a quick break. When we come back, we're going to talk about the Mystic Kellogg's Spiritual families Holiday mediumship stories.
- [23:26]
A
It is holiday time, and that means that eating well can feel impossible right now. But that's why I use factors chef prepped dietitian approved meals to help me stay balanced and energized through the most indulgent time of year. Guess what I had last night for dinner? I had cilantro chicken with rice and beans. It was so delicious. It was ready so quickly at fit. Filled me up, killed my cravings. I love Factor because it outperforms any other meal kit.

- [25:15]
B
All right, so the Misty Michaela spiritual family, we put up a post or you put up a post for their holiday mediumship stories.
- [25:22]
A
Yeah.
- [25:22]
B
So many came in. All unbelievable. But before we get into a couple of these stories, I just want to clarify for the listener how you do mediumship. So if you had a reading with Mystic Michaela, you know how. I assume you know how she works.
- [25:35]
A
Right.
- [25:35]
B
But how, let's say you don't know the person. How do these messages come to you? How do you do mediumship?
- [25:41]
A
So I'm sure everybody works differently. How it works for me is I need a photo. It just helps me the best. And then I'm an empathic. I call myself an empathic medium. So the first thing I get are people's personalities and their feelings. And then after that, some they'll give me, like, messages or I'll see things or I always. I can't control the reading, so I never know what they're going to give me. So it. Some, some people are more chatty than others on the other side, so they kind of run the show after that. They're very pushy. But I love that.
- [26:12]
B
And the. But the way you work is you have to connect through this photo.
- [26:15]
A
I have to connect through a photo. I got to look at a photo and a loved one. It helps me best if I work. Yeah. If I have. Yeah, because you're the connection. Again, when somebody you love dies, you are the medium. Like, you're the. You're it, you know? And everybody has this ability. Everybody has the ability to connect with someone they love on the other side. Okay.
- [26:33]
B
All right.
- [26:34]
A
So, well, I wanted to start. So I'm so thankful to all of you who participated on the thread. I mean, you gave such beautiful chills. I got chills reading these stories and such. Just, if you really want a great tearjerker and feel really good about things, go read this thread. But Emily writes, my little brother Joey died when he was 18 after a terrible car fire. The first Christmas after his passing, I found an ornament that he had written his name on for elementary school years ago. I was too sad to put it on the tree, so I tucked it in my sock drawer. Oh, that makes me cry. One day that December, I came home especially upset from grad school because we had been learning about providing therapy for patients dealing with grief. And my own grief was so intense. I went up to my room, and the ornament was sitting directly in the center of my room on the carpet. No one else in the house knew about it, and no one would have gone in my sock drawer to take it out. I cried a lot at the time, but I felt like it was my little brother saying, I'm here with you. I'm super curious to know what colors he may have been. He struggled with depression and anxiety and a wild side, so I wonder what empath colors he had. And then she gave me a picture of her brother. And so immediately as I'm reading this, I'm just filled with, like, I knew I wanted to read this one. I picked it right before because I just felt so drawn to it. And looking at him, he did all right. So, again, I'm an empathic medium, so I get a rush of emotion. That's the first thing I get. So I get him telling Emily and, you know, just, I love you, and I am here, and thank you for seeing me and thank you for taking care of me. Not just his memory, but in life, too. I feel like they really took care of him. And he was indigo purple, which is a very tough combination for a man in our society to have. He's. Feels like it just. He was. He still is just a very sensitive, empathic, connected person. So it makes sense that he comes through emotions. I feel like when Emily was feeling all her feelings, that's what made it actually easier, you know, about learning about grief and therapy. It actually made it easier for him to come through. He could use that as just, like, a door to walk right through because she doesn't shut it down. And that's really beautiful. What's. What a big thing I get here is thank you for the namesake. So it's almost kind of like, did you name somebody after him? Because that's kind of the thing I get. So namesake vibes give me a very special feeling of. That's another way to communicate back with people who've passed. Name somebody after. Name someone after them. It means a lot to them, and it definitely has some sort of tether between worlds. But he Definitely comes through in a kind way. And a lot of gratitude for the memory that they're keeping of him alive. Yeah.
- [29:27]
B
Wow.
- [29:28]
A
Okay, what'd you get? What was your story? You picked out?
- [29:31]
B
Okay, I picked out Sophia. She's one of the waffles.
- [29:36]
A
Oh, okay.
- [29:37]
B
Yeah. So I picked that. And it was easy to read.
- [29:39]
A
Yes. Because it was short.
- [29:41]
B
Because I am terrible at reading these stories. All right. Sophia W. Writes, my parents received a card during the holidays and realized it was my late grandparents exact address. Turns out my mom had done business with someone who now lived in their house, not in the same town my parents lived in more than 10 years after they stopped living here. My mom was shocked and my dad was so touched because it was his parents and they loved the holidays.
- [30:06]
A
Oh.
- [30:06]
B
So, okay, so just to.
- [30:09]
A
So you're like, wait a second, what happened?
- [30:10]
B
Yeah, what happened?
- [30:12]
A
So they received a car during the holidays and the return address was their grandparents exact address.
- [30:19]
B
Right.
- [30:20]
A
Okay.
- [30:21]
B
More than 10 years later.
- [30:22]
A
Yeah. So it was just weird. They got a Christmas card from people who lived in the same house as their grandparents did.
- [30:30]
B
Yeah.
- [30:30]
A
So it's. So how does that happen? Exactly. So that's why they were like, whoa, that must be grandparents. And it was also like 10. She did business with somebody who actually lived in this house.
- [30:43]
B
Okay.
- [30:43]
A
More than 10 years after they stopped living there. So it's just kind of like what coincidence of coincidences?
- [30:48]
B
But that's.
- [30:49]
A
Yeah, but that's really synchronicity and it is.
- [30:51]
B
See, now I ask questions like, how big was this town? Okay, but that is.
- [30:56]
A
No, we just.
- [30:57]
B
We just believe. If you just believe. If you just believe.
- [31:03]
A
Josh Groban says Polar Express.
- [31:06]
B
Just believe. All right, I'm just going to.
- [31:08]
A
Does your bell still ring, Scott? Do you still hear the bell ring? Okay, so that's really cool. I hear this a lot. Like, not just now, but if you ever gotten a flyer or email or advertisement or billboard, if you see things like that, it's very easy. And I talk about this in my book and the Book of Signs. It's very easy for Spirit to grab hold of advertisements or mail or try to just get people, oh, I'll send them a card. You know, because this is through some sort of business interaction is the reason why it happened. You know, mailing lists, things like that. It's just a creative reach out from the other side. They were able to do that. I think it's just really cool that they recognized it. And the mom and dad both immediately were like, oh my gosh, you know, thank you. This is awesome. It's totally from them then. Do you ever feel bad for the people who were the ones that actually sent the card? They don't get the credit. It's like the dead people got the credit. Exactly, yeah. If this has ever happened to you, have you ever given somebody something and all of a sudden they were like, oh, my gosh. How did you know this was my mom's favorite XYZ or whatever? And then they immediately, like, associate their gift with the dead person in their life. And you're like, well, I'm the one that bought it and wrapped it. You know, like that. If you ever get stuck in being the conduit for someone else's mediumship moment, just pat yourself on the back and say, good job, me. You're welcome.
- [32:40]
B
I don't think. Do you think I ever been the conduit? I don't think so. I think because I would get stuck. Like, if that message came, boom, we just get, like, stuck.
- [32:46]
A
Stuck in, you know?
- [32:47]
B
Yeah. Like, it would. It would end with me. Like, they'd be trying, and then they'd use me as the conduit, and it would just close. It just like. It just closes.
- [32:54]
A
That's why, like, kids are really good.
- [32:55]
B
Yeah. So don't try using me, anyone. Don't try to use me.
- [32:58]
A
My across the street neighbor, you know, she has got the best job because she works with kids. She's a special ed teacher, and she has stories all the time about little kids will just be like, when was your grandma's birthday? Like, on her grandma's birthday, they asked this, like, stuff like that. It's like, if you're lucky enough to work with kids, they're the best conduits because they don't do what you just said. They don't stop. They just say what's in their head. They're not like, being like, turn. Turn it off.
- [33:22]
B
They don't.
- [33:23]
A
Turn it down.
- [33:23]
B
Turn it off.
- [33:24]
A
Yeah. Like, if. You know that it depends.
- [33:27]
B
Although you do have a shot. If you're a red blue. If you're a red blue that has passed. Oh, yeah, you do have a shot. You're good at me.
- [33:32]
A
You're good at finding the right people to use as conduits.
- [33:35]
B
Yes.
- [33:35]
A
I would say the red blues are good at finding the. Yeah. And with you.
- [33:39]
B
Yeah.
- [33:39]
A
For some reason, they get you in the dad. The dad dad.
- [33:43]
B
Yeah.
- [33:43]
A
The red blue dad.
- [33:44]
B
Dads will get.
- [33:45]
A
They get you.
- [33:46]
B
They do.
- [33:46]
A
Yeah.
- [33:47]
B
Yeah.
- [33:48]
A
All right. I have another one.
- [33:49]
B
Okay.
- [33:50]
A
This one is from Jamie, and it's long, but man. Wow. This is. This gave me chills. Jamie writes. My fiance Sean passed away in November 2020. It was five days before Thanksgiving. There has been this tiny white seashell for as long as I can remember floating around in my backyard. It was left unattended, untouched for years in the courtyard amongst blue stones and drainage rocks. If anyone had ever stepped on it, it was never broken and remained intact. Sean noticed it once and asked where it came from and I had to tell him I had no idea because honestly, I did not. It probably came home with me from one of my beach trips, but I didn't know for sure. A few months after Shawn died, my then six year old niece found the seashell for her first time and asked why it was there. I told her I had no idea. Nobody knew. She picked it up, held it in her hand, looked at it calmly, and while still looking at a seashell, says, I think the seashell is from Sean since we went to the beach together. Wow.
- [34:55]
B
Wow.
- [34:56]
A
Hold on. I'm like so. I'm like choked up here. At that moment. It didn't matter if the seashell had been there for years. I saw a little girl who found comfort in finding a seashell in a place that she wasn't expecting it, and she associated finding that seashell with an experience she shared with someone who is no longer with us. I told her there are signs everywhere and we have to believe that we will find them. I ended up putting the seashell in what became a memory garden in the center of the courtyard for safekeeping. My dog, Phoebe.
- [35:25]
B
What?
- [35:26]
A
I know.
- [35:26]
B
Stop it.
- [35:27]
A
Her dog's named Phoebe.
- [35:28]
B
Oh my God.
- [35:28]
A
This is your sign.
- [35:29]
B
Yeah, I was actually tearing up here.
- [35:31]
A
This is your sign. Yeah, you just hijacked your story, but it's okay.
- [35:34]
B
Okay.
- [35:35]
A
My dog, Phoebe, who loves taking rocks and running around with them, went past the thousands upon thousands of blue stones that are in the courtyard, went into the memory garden and picked up the seashell in her mouth. She ran to the other side of the yard, delighted that she got something that I didn't really want her to have. After ignoring me, yelling her drop it, she started chewing and it was gone. I went. I looked back in the memory garden, hoping she had gotten something else and it wasn't the seashell. The seashell was out of there. I went to where she took it and looked for remnants of it, hoping she had dropped it along the way. Nothing. I was and realized the irony that the dog that I had got a year after Sean died would take Something that I took as a sign from Sean. I got a bit sad, but told myself that if it was gone, it was meant to be gone. A few months later. All right, everybody ready for this one? I walked past the memory garden and noticed something bright white against the dirt. It was the seashell.
- [36:30]
B
Stop it. Oh, my God.
- [36:33]
A
How insane is that?
- [36:37]
B
Who sent this in?
- [36:38]
A
This is Jamie.
- [36:38]
B
Jamie.
- [36:39]
A
Jamie A. Jamie A. Yeah, how insane is that?
- [36:43]
B
Also, both our spirit guides are mentioned in this story. Yours is Sean, mine's Sean, and mine's Phoebe.
- [36:48]
A
That's crazy. I didn't even put together the Sean one. That's right, Shells. Before I go into reading, she didn't give a picture. But Sean has such energy coming from this, so I'm going to talk about that. Okay, but before I talk about that, I talk about this in my book, Shells and what they Mean. Because they are really powerful symbols of transcendence. You know, when. When we pass, we do transcend, and it is like a vessel. You know what Our shells, they're vessels of life that have passed through. And the shell is such a deeply symbolic way for him to communicate. And maybe even before he passed, when he held it, when he asked her about it, you know what I mean? Maybe there was just a part of him like, okay, this is going to be our touchstone. And because we are just shells here, and we transcend through it, and it symbolizes that journey of the soul and eternity. And I just think it's really special. But feeling the energy of Sean, I get the word best friends. I get the word soulmates. I get the word he feels very. Just like there's, like, a comedy about him. Like, he doesn't want to make anybody sad. So I get a sense of, like, being together and having fun and rituals, and he feels like a very artistic person. That's the other thing I get. And I get him being such a supporter in her journeys and what she does from the other side. Like, I feel like he's constantly giving her messages and help and assistance as she helps other people. That's the other thing I get with this. I get. I get him, like, very busy showing. He's like. He's like somebody very busy, like somebody like that. And I get. He's over there and he's teaching others, and he's. He's helping other people figure out their life path. And he's saying he has no problem with pauses. He's. He's. And I don't know what this means. I'm just getting it. He's like, pauses are magical. Like, there's a lot going on in the pause, and people think a pause is something that is detrimental, but it's not, you know, And I don't know what that means. I hope that means something to Jamie with him. But he comes through like he was a very transcendent soul. Somebody who really, really brilliant on the other side, a brilliant light.
- [39:05]
B
I'm going to put you on the spot here. Do you know their colors?
- [39:09]
A
She. Well, she looks. Oh, I'm looking at her. She's really, like, sparkly yellow, a little turquoise, a little indigo.
- [39:16]
B
Okay.
- [39:16]
A
Yeah.
- [39:17]
B
And then, I don't know.
- [39:18]
A
You said he feels purple.
- [39:20]
B
Yeah.
- [39:21]
A
And something purple and something better.
- [39:24]
B
We need a better picture.
- [39:24]
A
I need a picture. He feels. He's got, like, a purple vibe to me, but he's also very grounded, you know, as well. So I feel like there's something there. Maybe purple, blue, green or something like.
- [39:35]
B
That tricolor type thing.
- [39:37]
A
Yeah, yeah. But he feels like he was. He's like a really cool guy.
- [39:41]
B
Anyways, well, hopefully Jamie hears this.
- [39:42]
A
Yeah.
- [39:43]
B
She could throw a photo of him in on the thread so people can see, and then you can obviously confirm it once you see the photo.
- [39:50]
A
I'm really appreciative of everybody who contributed to that thread. And again, if you just want to feel the magic, just read the thread. There's a lot of cool ways people see signs on there at this time.
- [40:01]
B
Okay. And then the other picture is up there already.
- [40:04]
A
Yes.
- [40:05]
B
Story.
- [40:05]
A
Yes.
- [40:06]
B
Okay, cool. All right. Well, hopefully this will help some people during the holidays that are having a tough time with it and waiting for a sign or hoping for a sign, or if you don't get a sign.
- [40:18]
A
And you don't have to do anything the way anybody else does it. You know what I mean? Just make yourself feel good this holiday season, no matter what you're going through, it's okay to change things up.
- [40:27]
B
How are. Okay, so just switching gears now.
- [40:30]
A
Switching gears.
- [40:30]
B
How are you doing on the Christmas exchange? We know we said this last time. It is a nostalgic gift from a department store.
- [40:40]
A
Yes.
- [40:42]
B
Are you have any ideas? Are you keeping those close to the vest? What's going on?
- [40:45]
A
Yeah, the theme is holiday nostalgic Department store.
- [40:50]
B
I know, I know what department store I'm going to hit. I think I know.
- [40:54]
A
$60 limit. Yes. I unlocked new department stores. Yeah.
- [40:58]
B
I'm going Bloomies.
- [40:59]
A
Right? There's like. I didn't even realize. There's like, Bloomingdale's, Bloomingdale's Nordstrom. That's a little too. Yeah, that might be too pricey for. For me.
- [41:07]
B
And we actually. We did our.
- [41:08]
A
We did a sixty dollar limit.
- [41:10]
B
Yeah, we did a Rock Paper scissors. And I won, by the way. I won. And you get to pick which department store you want. You get to go first.
- [41:17]
A
Okay.
- [41:17]
B
Now I guess it doesn't really matter. You want Bloomingdale and I got Bloomingdale's.
- [41:21]
A
Right.
- [41:21]
B
Actually, I'm like, I actually even deferred it to you, and you gave me. You said Bloomingdale.
- [41:25]
A
You can have Bloomingdale.
- [41:25]
B
And you went with Macy's.
- [41:26]
A
Yeah, that's fine.
- [41:27]
B
Yeah. I guess it doesn't matter which one you go first. Only in the fact that if you fall in love with something in the first store.
- [41:33]
A
Yeah.
- [41:33]
B
It might be difficult for you to go to a different store.
- [41:36]
A
I don't know.
- [41:37]
B
And that might be the.
- [41:37]
A
I feel like I might have to, like, try a couple stores.
- [41:41]
B
Okay. So. So you. So would you be. Okay, let's say you find the perfect gift at Macy's when you go.
- [41:47]
A
Yeah.
- [41:47]
B
Would you then be willing to put it down, not purchase it, then go to another department store? Bloomingdale's?
- [41:56]
A
I would.
- [41:56]
B
I feel comfortable and hoping that that item's still there when you.
- [41:59]
A
Yes. I don't think these are, like, hot ticket items.
- [42:01]
B
Okay.
- [42:03]
A
Because there's a chance in my head I have it as decor. Like, it doesn't have to be. But then you're telling me it could be something not decor.
- [42:10]
B
Yeah, it could be anything.
- [42:11]
A
Like, you're saying it could just be, like holiday nostalgia from a department store. That's not decor like that. That could be, like. Sure. Like a. Like the Estee Lauder holiday gift set, which is more than $60.
- [42:21]
B
Yeah, yeah. It could be anything that's sold in that store.
- [42:26]
A
Like, what if I get the holiday, like, you know, like when you go and, like, on the little circle tables, there's always, like, the watches with, like, a snowflake box.
- [42:36]
B
Okay.
- [42:36]
A
What if I got you that? I don't think.
- [42:40]
B
See, you. You'd get. Okay. The presentation might be okay with the box, but you're gonna lose. Unless the watch has, like, snowflakes that fall.
- [42:47]
A
Okay.
- [42:47]
B
Because it wouldn't be holiday.
- [42:48]
A
Well, okay. Like, got it.
- [42:50]
B
If the. If the watch had, like, a little, like, Santa wristband.
- [42:52]
A
Okay. You could. What if it's like a Christmas tree tie?
- [42:56]
B
A box. Oh, and the. And there's Christmas trees on the tie. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That would. Yeah.
- [43:01]
A
I might get you, like, suspenders with wreaths. On them.
- [43:05]
B
Okay.
- [43:06]
A
I mean, you could, but I've never.
- [43:08]
B
Worn suspenders, so I don't know if you'd win with that.
- [43:11]
A
It's inconsequential. Yeah, I. I don't know. In my head, I. I think as far as ideas, I think it might be decor. I might go decor. What about you? Are you giving up your ideas? As I just gave up, I'm like.
- [43:23]
B
I keep. See, this is why I think you give away a little too much sometimes. I'm not going to give away a lot that way. You don't know which way I'm thinking. I mean, I saw these, like, really large Santas.
- [43:33]
A
Yeah. Oh, yeah.
- [43:33]
B
That I really liked. It was right in budget. It was right on the line. Yeah. 61. So I'd have to go and haggle to see if I could get it for 59.99.
- [43:43]
A
I don't think you can haggle at Bloomingdale.
- [43:44]
B
I'm gonna try.
- [43:47]
A
You'll have to take out the credit card off.
- [43:50]
B
Yeah, no, that's true. You could do that. Get yourself an extra 50. I mean, I was gonna be like, go up to an employee. Be like, hey, can I use your discount?
- [43:57]
A
Right?
- [43:58]
B
Give me your employee discount.
- [43:59]
A
Okay.
- [43:59]
B
Yeah, you could. Look, sometimes you gotta be Machiavellian sometimes. Yeah. You want to win Machiavellian? The ends justify the means.
- [44:07]
A
Okay, so cutthroat.
- [44:10]
B
Yeah, it's cutthroat.
- [44:12]
A
Well, anyway, we will see you guys after the new Year, but.
- [44:16]
B
Right. This is the last episode till the new year.
- [44:18]
A
We need you. We need you on December 25th over at Know your or a Pod on Instagram. That is where I will put up the pictures of what Scotty and I gave each other at the holiday gift exchange. We cannot proceed without your vote. You've been voting for him? I think, like, two years in a row. It's been hard to forgive you all. I know. Even though I keep it anonymous, that means.
- [44:43]
B
This is a far cry from the lean years when I kept losing. When you kept on doing impersonal gifts.
- [44:48]
A
And I just kept losing at impersonal gifts.
- [44:50]
B
Yeah, I'm not gonna. I mean, we could go back to that one year, but I'm gonna lose, probably.
- [44:54]
A
When I had you donate to the. I donated to the Red Cross in your name. And I won.
- [44:58]
B
Yeah, I know.
- [44:58]
A
Because, like, how much more personal could you get?
- [45:02]
B
One year, I got, what, a Dunkin Donuts $5 gift card and, like, a.
- [45:07]
A
Bottle of champagne from Target. I mean, come on. The Target bottle of champagne one year.
- [45:14]
B
You give me, like, the mug with the little chocolates in it.
- [45:16]
A
Yeah, yeah. It's so impersonal. Gifts are my favorite.
- [45:19]
B
You know what is? I never got the.
- [45:21]
A
You ever understood it.
- [45:22]
B
I never understood.
- [45:22]
A
You got me, like, losing a butter knife with. With my name, like, with your initial letter M on it. It's like, scott, that's personal.
- [45:28]
B
Yeah, I know, I know.
- [45:31]
A
Anyway, and then you gave me, like, soaps. It's like, this isn't in person.
- [45:35]
B
Right. Who would you give?
- [45:36]
A
Yeah, you wouldn't give because you can't give. Like, give that to somebody. You don't know that.
- [45:40]
B
Let's say it's impersonal, but I want to make it. I want to become more personal.
- [45:43]
A
That creepy. That's creepy.
- [45:46]
B
I haven't said Jumanji in, like, three episodes.

B
This is for everyone. Playing for who wants to have a real ho, ho, ho, good time.
