Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Sara’s Awakening and Channeling Origin

• Early Sensitivity Without Language for It:
  Sara describes feeling “really different” throughout her life, experiencing heightened spiritual activity and intuition without vocabulary or family context for it; these were often dismissed as imagination (04:24).
• Catalytic Near-Death/Breakdown Experience:
  At age 40, a dramatic event during an airplane emergency triggered a spiritual opening. “In that moment…something just broke open for me. That was in 2004. From that moment on everything accelerated.” (04:24)
• Early Channeling Encounters:
  Post-divorce and deep in personal upheaval, Sara experienced her first overt guide visit:
  “I saw a man come up to the front door…and then he walked through the door, like through the wood. And that was my first guide.” (07:21)
  She began to write down the messages—these became her first channeled book, Writing the Divine.
• Developing the Practice:
  Channeling started uncontrollably but, over time, Sara learned to enter a “sweet spot” meditative state to consciously connect:
  “There’s this kind of sweet spot you can go into where you don’t go out that far…and that’s where you can have connection with the guides.” (08:24)

---

2. Navigating the Spiritual “Closet” and Life Path Surrender

• Struggling With Identity and Secrecy:
  Sara initially hid her abilities: “I didn’t tell anyone…Only one I finally told was my current husband. And he said, ‘Oh, yeah, that’s channeling.’” (09:38)
• Letting Go of Old Dreams:
  Originally, Sara aspired to write novels, not spiritual books. When publishing opportunities came for her channeled work, she had to “accept that maybe chick lit wasn’t going to happen…maybe this spiritual teaching stuff was actually where it was going.” (13:01)
• Embracing Purpose Through Surrender:
  Both Sara and Alex discuss how career aspirations equipped them for a higher purpose, even if their journeys diverged from initial plans. Sara emphasizes:
  “We have to say yes, we have to be open to the shift…We had to say yes.” (16:29)
• On Allowing the Universe to Guide:
  “Instead of me forcing where I thought I was going…I just [said], ‘Hey, universe, you know better, just let me know where I can be of use.’” (17:47)

---

3. The Nature of Channeling & Purpose of Spirit Guidance

• Who Are the Guides?
  Sara describes a progression of spirit helpers:
  • First, a guide named Hajam (from “when India and Asia…were undivided”)
  • Then, “two very stern sort of Mennonite or Quaker…older ladies, Constance and Miriam…And then I had Angel Gabriel…Most recently…these very tall beings…they’re just light beings. They don’t have names. They’re a collective.” (20:18)
• Why Do Spiritual Guides Communicate?
  “I think the message is to provide people with ways to think about our existence, our lives on this planet, like a new way of thinking about things that will help us collectively evolve.” (23:10)
  • Modern channeling continues what sacred texts historically did: offer templates for how to live and see the world.

---

4. Trauma, Suffering, and Oneness

• Types of Trauma and Approaches to Healing:
  • Real, acute trauma (loss, abuse, disasters) requires external support and time
  • Psychological darkness—the seductive “cave” of ego, comparison, or separation—can keep us stuck
  • “Being separate from is a misbelief. It’s really impossible…to be separate from anything…That’s the source of all inner agony.” (25:40)
• The Purpose of Suffering:
  • Suffering and bliss, Sara’s guides say, are extremes that feed ego (54:29):
    • In suffering: “victim” consciousness
    • In bliss: “I’m so awesome, I’m the most spiritual”
  • The spiritual path is about living the “middle way,” humility, and surrender.

---

5. Surrendering Control and “Law of Flow”

• Law of Attraction vs. Law of Flow:
  “The universe is trying to take us…toward our highest potentiality. All we have to do is let ourselves be guided. We are not attracting to us, we are allowing ourselves to be attracted to this highest potentiality.” (39:39)
• Active Participation:
  While surrender is essential, people must also “notice the synchronicity, notice the nudge…move actively toward that.” (39:39)

---

6. Purpose, Hobbies, and Spiritual Contribution

• Recognizing True Purpose:
  Sara encourages listeners to look for the “heart opening piece that gives them joy”—not necessarily a career:
  “If the world was made up [only] of authors or podcasters or teachers, we would never get our plumbing fixed.” (58:50)
• Purpose Isn’t Always About Income:
  “Not everyone’s purpose is going to be the main way they make money…that’s a part of our cultural misbelief from the last couple generations.” (61:19)
• The Importance of Hobbies and Everyday Contribution:
  Doing what brings joy (even if it isn’t monetized or ‘big’) is deeply valid.

---

7. The Universal Thread in Channeling

• Consistent Messages Across Cultures:
  “It’s so interesting, people from around the world having such similar messaging…There is this consistency of messaging…this sense of affection, like the guides are so elevated, we’re just like these cute puppies trying to help.” (45:43, 47:10)
• On the Vibration of Words:
  Channeled works (e.g., Autobiography of a Yogi) have a palpable energetic resonance:
  “The words just kind of vibrate off the page…you go to a different place.” (48:00)

---

8. Q&A Rapid Fire: Sara’s Definitions

• Living a Good Life:
  “Participating at the best level you can that day, I suppose.” (66:46)
• Definition of God:
  “My vast oneness.” (66:57)
• Ultimate Purpose of Life:
  “The purpose of life is soul growth.” (67:05)

Now let's dive into today's episode. I'd like to welcome to the show Sarah Weissman. How you doing, Sarah?

[Sarah Weissman]

Oh, very good. Thanks for having me.

[Alex Ferrari]

Thank you so much for coming on the show, my dear. I appreciate it. So, you know, you're a channel, but you're a channel. Can you explain to the audience what kind of channel you are?

[Sarah Weissman]

Yes, hi. Thank you. I channel spiritual teachings and I've been doing this for quite a long time. Over 20 years, actually. And from the teachings that I channel, I've also received a lot of teachings on how to teach spiritual intuition, like how to teach intuitive practices. So it's kind of a combination of channeling styles that we've got going on here.

[Alex Ferrari]

Very cool. I haven't had someone like you on the show before, so I'm excited to kind of get into the weeds with you. So my first question is, when did you. When did your. What was your life like? Point prior to you starting to channel? And you know this because I'm assuming it wasn't at the beginning of your life when you were five, right? Because mom, dad. Wait a second.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yes, just, just get my laptop out back then. No, that's a great question. My life before that was sort of a mix of feeling really different but not being able to figure out what I was experiencing because I didn't have any vocabulary for it or it wasn't talked about in my family. So I had a lot of spir. Activity and a lot of intuition coming in. But again, it was more like, oh, honey, you're so imaginative, or what a great fantasy life you have. You know, that was sort of the language I was given. All this stuff's happening. And so that went along for many, many years. And then in my 40s, I had a. What I call a near death experience on a plane where the oxygen mass fell down from the, from the cords and we put them on and something in there kind of cracked open for me. We were fine. Obviously, I'm still here. We made an emergency landing. But in that moment, I just want to say, like, I. I understood God or I understood the universe or something just broke open. And that was in 2004. 2000. And from that moment on everything accelerated. And people have said, you know, they have these near death experiences and then it all happens. And it was kind of like that for me, except for, you know, I wasn't in a near death experience like on a hospital bed. It was just this peak experience of terror. And then also for a lot of people, they have these experiences and they experience love and light and beauty. And I just went into pit of despair. And I was in pit of despair for about four years and ended up getting divorced. And deaths in the family, some of this other trauma that sometimes I went into full on. Like I saw it and then I couldn't integrate it. I couldn't figure it out. And so in 2004, I was getting divorced from my first husband and had just gone into the place I was going to be living and was just kind of taking stock of everything with all the boxes around and the packing boxes. And I saw a man come up to the front door and I'm like, no, not now, not going to even answer it. And then he walked through the door, like through the wood. And that was my first guide. And I was so shaken up, I didn't know what to do. And all I could do was think was write it down. Whatever he says, just write it down like, so I'll have some kind of proof for the world. And so that was the beginning of the channeling practice. And that happened. He didn't come as an apparition. That was just that one time. But I would sit on the sofa and I'd be like, okay, I'm here. And this being would come and I would just write down these messages. And those messages eventually became my first book. It's called Writing the Divine. And they were the 33 lessons. So it's kind of this strange, strange practice that I couldn't control. I would just literally have to go there and announce myself. And then it would come. And then over the years, I started to figure out how I could make contact and I could go there instead of them just coming to me. And that was the start of a more rigorous style of channeling and just a more rigorous spiritual awakening, I guess at that point.

[Alex Ferrari]

Well, I have lots of questions. So when you say that you went, you can go to them, what do you mean by that?

[Sarah Weissman]

I go into meditative state. And sometimes when people go into meditation, they go like way far out into the vastness. But there's this kind of sweet spot you can go into where you don't go out that far. And that's sort of where you can have connection with the guides. You can have the connection with the departed or intuitive information. And so I go there, and then I just see if anything is there for me that day or not.

[Alex Ferrari]

Fascinating. And so, again, let's go back to when that man walked through the wall. You have to have. At a certain point when that was happening to. You must have said, am I losing my mind?

[Sarah Weissman]

Oh, yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

So what. What was that? Because I know if I saw someone walk through the wall that looked. That wasn't like a. Like, it was just like a dude walking through the wall. I know. I'll be like, okay, we're in the matrix now. What do we. What is happening? So how did you deal with that? Like, on a psychological level?

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah, I didn't deal with it that well. I really didn't, you know, to hear that.

[Alex Ferrari]

Because if you would have said I was fine, I would be concerned.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah, I started looking for answers. I started at that point, like, going to some of the psychics in my town, or I started meditation, or I started doing ecstatic dance. I just started. Whatever. I just started to read. But I didn't know what that was. And even though I was receiving these messages, I was pretty nervous to tell. I didn't tell anyone about it. And the only one I finally told was my current husband. And I said, you know, this really weird thing's happening. I hope I'm okay. I don't know what's going on. And he said, oh, yeah, that's channeling. And so then I had a word like, okay, channeling, look. Well, we didn't even have Google back then, probably, but channeling, look up what that is. Okay. That's a process of going into a fugue state and receiving information and language. Okay, that's what's happening. And that just solved, like, okay, well, what's this about? I'm super curious.

[Alex Ferrari]

So. So when did you decide to come out of the spiritual closet? Because I've heard that from so many people who have these gifts. It's like, at a certain point, you eventually have to come out publicly. And you definitely, obviously, are very public about this with, you know, how many books you've written and so on. But that first step, like, to family, to friends, to colleagues, what was that like for you?

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah. Oh, I don't think I came out of the spiritual closet. And that is such a good word. That is what it's like until. So I had this. I don't have the correct book here, but I had the full book of the channeling. It was completed. And I really was disappointed because at that time in my life, I wanted to be a popular novelist. I wanted to be. We don't have this term so much anymore, but I wanted to be a chick lit writer right back then.

[Alex Ferrari]

I know who that is. Yeah, of course. We'll be right back after a word from our sponsor. And now back to the show.

[Sarah Weissman]

It's like soft romance. Whatever. I wanted to do that.

[Alex Ferrari]

You want Fabio and Fabio, you want Fabio on the COVID I got you. Yeah.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah. Well, I was really, like set on that. I was writing all these novels and

[Sarah Weissman]

And it's like, darn it, I've got this spiritual channeling instead. I just want to do the chick lit. And I had approached some agents about the chick lit and had was talking to one of them. And. I sort of had to accept that maybe chick lit wasn't going to happen, that maybe this spiritual teaching stuff was actually where it was going. And I sort of said to the universe, look, I really wanted to do the novels, but if this is my path, I will do that instead. And the day that I said that, the next day the agent said, hey, you know, I know you've been sending me this stuff, but have you ever thought about doing a book on channeling? And I'm like, wow, really? And I said, yes, by the way, here's what I have. And so they said, yes, we're very interested. We love your channeled work, but what we really want is so we've got half A book here with this channeling. What we really want is how do you do it? We need a how to. We've got part two. We need part one. How do you channel? And that was the first book. And what's so interesting there is even then, the universe was kind of like, yeah, you can channel, but we want you to teach others how to do this stuff. That's where your niche is going to be as a teacher, show other people. And so all this whole sequence of events from trying to be a chick lit writer.

[Alex Ferrari]

It's so funny that you say that because, you know, so many times we walk, walk the earth with one idea in mind in regards to what we're supposed to be doing. And a lot of times that is a part of what we're doing, but it is a part to a grander puzzle that we are not privy to yet.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yes.

[Alex Ferrari]

Only with time do we realize, oh, that job or this career that I spent 20 years to doing has prepared me for what I'm about to do now. So your education or skill set in the chick lit space of just writing was a prerequisite for you to be able to achieve or to accept the information that you got in your channel. Incorrect.

[Sarah Weissman]

That's right. That's exactly right. Yeah. Yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

I mean, if you would have been a janitor and never picked up a book, it would have been difficult for you to start. You wouldn't even thought to have written, start writing. It just wouldn't be part of it. So it was a part. But it's so funny how the universe drives us to. Because I've been a filmmaker most of my career and now I'm a podcaster. It's weird. I'm still a filmmaker, but this is what I do the most with basically all of my time right now. But all the skills I picked up over those 20, 25 years of chasing the filmmaking dream of being the next Spielberg, like all filmmakers do, have prepared me to be able to launch a show like this so quickly, so rapidly, and have the success that we've been able to do. But without all those skill sets, it's just impossible to do. But the universe knows how to dangle the carrot. So you keep going on the skills that you need to the point where it goes, okay, now it's time to shift.

[Sarah Weissman]

And I think, yeah, those are such truth there. And also the idea that we have to say, yes, we have to be open to the shift. If you'd been like, nope, just doing films, or if I'd been, nope, just doing that none of this other stuff would have come to fruition. We had to say yes.

[Alex Ferrari]

And is it interesting, though, when the universe asks you for the shift, it's usually scary. Generally speaking, it's something outside of your box. It's a bit of a risk, and it's scary. It's just a scary proposition. I mean, for you. Look, me doing the show was scary. Being a spiritual podcast is there. I can't imagine coming out as a channel, writing books, explaining. That's. Even for me, it's even scarier. It took me a year to really come out of the closet with this show, to do it properly. And that's when the doors and then the door swing open. Just like you just. You had that conversation. Like, I guess if. If this is what I need to do, I'm open to it. And the next day, a phone call comes, hey, can you write a channel?

[Sarah Weissman]

You know, the. The other lesson from that is then I started to. Instead of my life started to be. Instead of me forcing where I thought I was going.

[Alex Ferrari]

Yes.

[Sarah Weissman]

I just like, hey, universe, you. You know, I obviously have the wrong ideas. You just show me. And I'm just going to try and follow along as best I can and sort of detach from any particular outcome. Just let me know where I can be of use. I'll do that. And that's been pretty interesting, that journey.

[Alex Ferrari]

Isn't it interesting that we generally try to build the road that we're going to walk in the dark because we don't know where it's going. We have a general idea that we. Where we want it to go, but we don't know. And you just kind of like. And then you hit a wall. Damn it. Back up. Did you hit a wall? Damn it. Boom, boom. Hit a wall. Damn it. But when you allow yourself to do what you just said, hey, universe, you take the lead. Is like, you sit back, you stop building the road, and then little bits of light start to shine on the path that you need to walk. And then you start to walk that path, and you're like, oh, this is so much easier.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah. And, yeah, the other thing, too, is like, I really realized pretty early. Well, I don't know, but it's like, it's not about me or it's not about you. It's. We're just one piece of the puzzle. And everybody's putting the puzzle together. One piece. You know, here's my piece. How can I help you? And that's a whole different story than, I will do this. You know, it's like, here's my offering.

[Alex Ferrari]

Yeah, that word I, which is ego. It's ego saying that like, I am, I shall do what I, I construct, I shall hustle, I shall, you know, all this kind of stuff. And, and when you start to surrender, it just seems to be so much easier, so much more in line. And, and only someone like you and myself who've walked this path that we're both walking right now and have walked, we can speak of this because we're like, we both tried to make it. You tried to be a chick lit, you know, and I, you know, I tried to be the next Spielberg and I got really close. And you probably got really close with the chick lit stuff as well. I was in room with giant movie stars. I'm like, well, I'm good enough to get in the room. Why isn't this happening? Like, yeah, what's going on? So it's really fascinating to see that with you. I wanted to ask you a question in regards to your channel. Did they ever say their name? Do they change, come in and out? Is it the same entity or whatever?

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah. So the first was just one guy and that was almost like, that's a guy that's still with me now. He has a name, Hajam. He's like this very tiny sort of like when India and Asia, historically they were undivided. It's like, wait, he's from that time frame. And then for the, the, the next messages, I had these two. I shouldn't joke about it, but I had these two very stern sort of Mennonite or Quaker or very stern older ladies, Constance and Miriam. And they were like, you better listen, you better get this right. And then I had Angel Gabriel, which was a big surprise. And. But most recently, the last, I don't know, 15 years, it's been these, just these very tall beings. Some people I know say that they're like Pleiadians. I don't know, they're just light beings. They don't have names. They're a collective.

[Alex Ferrari]

Yeah, it sounds the large beings from. Again, from my experience, just talking to so many channelers and people, it seems that could be angels. It could be a collective of angels. It could be a collective of beings from another. A higher, higher level of evolution than us.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

But let me ask you this question. Why do you think that, you know, I'm assuming on the other side there's stuff to do. They could go to a bar, they can, you know, hang out, you know, watch a movie. On the other side, I'M sure they're fantastic. They got some really great filmmakers on the other side. You know, there's, there's good musicians. I'm sure you. Why waste their time with these messages? What is the purpose of these messages coming through now at this specific moment in time?

[Sarah Weissman]

I think the message is to provide people with ways to think about our existence, our lives on this planet, like a new way of thinking about things that will help us collectively evolve. And I would say that lots of people channel nowadays, right? It's not just me, it's lots of people. And you know, in ancient times, like I would say the Bible that was, somebody sat down and channeled that. Right?

[Alex Ferrari]

We'll be right back after a word from our sponsor. And now back to the show.

[Sarah Weissman]

There are other sacred texts those were channeled and those provided this kind of template for how do we think about life. Or especially maybe in biblical times, just an example, not everybody was literate. And so it created like this hand, like the handbook, like here's how you live your life, you know, right or wrong. I'm not. That was just what is available to that culture at that time in that aspect of development. So I feel like a lot of the channeling coming now is about how do we as humans lift up from this particular awareness that we're in now. How do we get a lift up and go forward to something more collective and cooperative and useful for the planet.

[Alex Ferrari]

Now you were saying earlier that you not only were going through a divorce, but you were also going through other traumas, and you went to that four year, kind of like the valley of the shadow of death or, you know,

[Sarah Weissman]

kind of the misery of the despair of the doom.

[Alex Ferrari]

Yes, exactly. For about four years. And so many people listening now are dealing with trauma, dealing with pain and suffering that they've accumulated through their lifetime. We all accumulated. There's not one that escapes it, because we're down here to learn. As a general statement, if you're not. You're not feeling pain of some sort here and there, you're not growing. That's the nature of growth. If you want to grow a muscle, you got to rip it down, tear it apart for it to rebuild back up. So what advice do you have for people with traumas or pain or suffering that they're going through right now? How do you release those pains, those traumas, the known ones and the more importantly, the unconscious ones that dominate our lives that we don't even know that we're carrying with us?

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah, I think there's some different levels of trauma. There's trauma that actually happens to us if we're abused or we lose people we love or we're in a war or those types of events that happen and we're in recovery. And I think especially after what we've been through with COVID there's a lot of that still going on. People are sort of coming out of a PTSD style experience collectively from that. So that's valid and that needs healing and support, and we need to help each other move through that. But there's another kind of pain that comes from our mind, and the darkness is very inviting. It's very comfortable to go back into that, the dark cave of sort of your thoughts and your illusions and your misbeliefs and just hang out in there. It's especially dark to go into places of, you know, drugs and alcohol and substances and social media and comparison and just like, really sink into this. Sink into this separation state. That's what it is. It's a sense of being separate from. And so that's being separate from is a misbelief. It's really impossible for any of us to be separate from it, from anything. And so when we separate ourselves out, it's an ego thing. And this is like the source of, you know, this is not a surprise, but this is the source of all inner agony is I am separate. I'm not part of. In fact, that's untrue. We're all Part of we can't be separate. It's the biggest myth, and yet it's so seductive. Oh, poor me, you know, so noticing which kind of pain or trauma you're actually in, is it real? Like, does it really need healing attention? Or is it this just my mind sort of going to that place again. And if that's the case, there's some work to be done, there's some lessons to be learned and some opening into that idea of the oneness. That's, that's how things really are.

[Alex Ferrari]

I think that you're right. It is so much easier to go into a place of judgment, to go into a place of comparison, because the ego wants to be there. Because the ego wants nothing more than to be relevant and, and that it's all about you, you, you and you, or it, it, it, and it. When you start to open yourself up, like you said, to the idea that we are all one, that starts to melt away and you become more comfortable. That's why anybody that I've ever had on the show who's had a near death experience, had a body experience or a channel, they see things so differently. They all see the oneness. They all come back different than when they were before. That's why I asked, where were you before this situation? Because you might have had inklings, but when you had to change, your, your perspective on life changed.

[Sarah Weissman]

And it, and it doesn't mean just because our perspective changes or even just because we have these, you know, a lot of people have these really significant spiritual practices or they, just because you're good, whatever that means to you, it doesn't mean only good things are going to happen to you. That's not, it's just like the journey continues. It's just, you see, you see the journey differently. You see the journey as an opportunity to shed those misbeliefs and shed all that ego stuff. With every single lesson that comes in,

[Alex Ferrari]

I am a living proof of that. I just went through eight days of no power and an ice storm and I feel like I'm doing good work, but it's like lessons needed to be taught and I had to sit there and go, why is this happening to me? You know, and you had to go through the whole moment of like day one, day two, then the ego starts coming in like, wow, how come I would just, I shouldn't be going through this. And then, then you start opening it up. It was just a fascinating process just for me to go through. Because you just. And it was a state, it was stages. Every day that went by, you're just like, why? But then you have acceptance and you're like, okay, if this is the new reality for now, how I deal with it will be how I approach what is and I have no control over it is how I will live my life better. So I could be angry and pissed that I don't have power and I'm dealing with all the stuff that you have to deal with when it comes to that. Or you can just accept it and just go, okay, how am I going to deal with it? What are the elements that I have to deal with? Looking at life that way is like, you get into a car accident and as a fender bender, you're like, okay, my car's in the shop for two weeks. I could be really upset about it, or I could just figure out how to move on because the. The thing has no positive or negative charge. It is what it is. The ice storm that hit Austin, it's nature. There was an earthquake in Turkey a few days ago that killed over 10,000 people, for God's sakes. The earthquake's not evil. It just is what it is. Unfortunately, depending on the perspective you're looking at.

[Sarah Weissman]

It's interesting too, about this power outage. It's almost like the lesson was not just for you, but collectively in your area. We talked where I live too, we have a lot of ice storms up in Portland. The power is at. Like, you have no power. Like, suddenly there is no power. And that is direct hit to the ego. And the soul has to be like, wait a second. Ego doesn't have power, and I don't have power in my house. But the soul power still is there. That's the piece that. That is cannot be obliterated ever. So that's the piece, right?

[Alex Ferrari]

Exactly. There's always that source inside of you that controls the experience of this journey, of this game, of this path, of this whatever we're quest that we're on. It is always inside of you, and it cannot be extinguish, no matter what the external tries to do, because it's eternal. The soul is eternal, and it moves forward. It's. It was really fascinating because, you know, you really get tested. You're like, you know, I feel. Then the ego starts getting. I feel like I'm a spiritual guy, you know, very. You know, I'm like. And then the. And then the ego's like, you're like the most spiritual person. You're right. You know, that kind of crap starts coming up. I love that, by the way. And I. When those. Isn't it hilarious? But that's.

[Sarah Weissman]

Oh, my gosh.

[Alex Ferrari]

That's what we do. The ego is like, I'm not spiritual. Until you start getting some accolades as being a spiritual person. Then you're like, well, I'm the most spiritual, like I. And this kind of stuff. But then. Then the ego gets calmed down. But something like an event that you have literally no control over. None. None.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

No control over a natural disaster. There's just nothing you can do about it. So it's fascinating to see how the ego dealt with it and how I dealt with it and then how you have to kind of, like, get to a wall and just go, okay. That's what this is about. And, you know, and it had to linger a bit. It can just be gone in a day or two. You needed some time for this to just really sink in. But these are ideas. These are things that happen to all of us throughout our lives, whether it be a power outage, whether it be a natural disaster, which I've gone through. I've gone through hurricanes multiple times in my life. I've been in car accidents most of the time. You know, these bigger events, life events that really shock you. It just. Yeah, it jars you. We'll be right back after a word from our sponsor. And now back to the show, you know, or a break. Then there's the emotional ones that happen with either family or friends. And I have to imagine when you came out of this spiritual closet, you might have lost a friend or two, right?

[Sarah Weissman]

Oh, for sure. I mean, all of them. It just was a complete switch. And at the time, I was living in a pretty conservative place that was, you know, pretty. Pretty conservative. And, yeah, nothing went forward. And that was okay because something about, like, the soul truth that maybe you receive. I was receiving this channeling. It resonated so much. It was so clear to me that when other people were really against it or saying that's against their religion or whatever, I just. It didn't matter. It was like I had been exposed to something deeper, and I just realized they don't get it. That's okay. I just still have to go on that. It's okay. I think it's really common when people have. A lot of the folks I teach, they start to. They start to experience some of this stuff with the guides or. Or this. This direct connection with some of the guides that work with us and attempt to. Attempt to tell their friends or something. And, yeah, it's this disconnect, but that is one of the Parts of the path too, is a lot of the time that's the journey you have to do by yourself for a while until you can find. And I don't really care for that word tribe so much, but until you can find a group that is thinking in a similar way or has been through these experiences also,

[Alex Ferrari]

there's a great deal of bravery that is needed to leave what you've known.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

Behind and people that you might have, you know, had really good times with in the past, but they're not growing in the same or they're not walking the path that you're walking. And I think there's a good example of that in high school. People who you had the deepest connections with in high school, you looked at at 10 year reunion just like, oh, yeah, I can't, I can't talk to you anymore.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

Like you've gone on, you know, you're still in high school in their mind, like these, these kind of things that are. But, but that's part of life there. People come into your life for a reason, a season or life. And there's a handful that stay with you for the entire road. But many times just people come in and out. But it's difficult.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah. And there's no judgment on where a person is.

[Alex Ferrari]

Absolutely.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah. And we can't, you know, the person that, you know is homeless or unhoused might be the master. And we just walk by and don't even. So it's like, I don't think not the. All of us as souls, we've been around however many times and we come in at different levels. It's, it's. There's no race, there's no hierarchy. We're just kind of doing our lessons. Like when they told you in school, like, keep your eyes on your own paper. Just like do your own thing as best you can. That's what. Weird idea.

[Alex Ferrari]

I love that. Keep your eyes on your own paper, everybody, please.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

No, it's, it's, it's truly, truly fascinating this, this path that we're all walking and, and just dealing with the pains that we deal with along the way.

[Alex Ferrari]

There's a concept of co creation that we talk about that if you've talked about in your work and, and I've, you know, it's constant even in quantum physics now. There's even talks about this kind of concept. Can you talk a little bit about co creation of our reality and what that means?

[Sarah Weissman]

So I might. So I have a little bit different view than say Law of Attraction. For me, Law of attraction is kind of a pre idea or an idea that came in that we use for a while. And the idea that I'm working with now that I received from the guides is the idea of law of flow, which is that the universe is trying to take us, you, me, the collective, toward our highest potentiality. And the universe is going to drop in every kind of event and clue and nudge. And all we have to do is let ourselves be guided. So we are not attracting to us, we are allowing ourselves to be attracted to this highest potentiality.

[Alex Ferrari]

Agreed.

[Sarah Weissman]

And the beauty there is. It's surrender. We just surrender. And it is our responsibility to though to notice the synchronicity, to notice the nudge and to not just allow. Yes, thank you. But to move actively toward that. So it's a little bit different. Like we're not, we're not saying to the universe, I want to co create this car. We're saying to the universe, I need transportation, please. And the universe is saying, follow these synchronicities and you will be attracted to your highest potentiality. We will decide what that is. Is that a jaguar? Is that a go kart? I don't know. Potentiality for your soul's growth, not for your earth life, for your soul's growth. Because that's the bigger goal. It's the big joke of the universe. Yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

So because you know, you might want the Porsche.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yes.

[Alex Ferrari]

But for your soul, you really need the 85 Datsun.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yes.

[Alex Ferrari]

Or even better, the 72 Gremlin.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah. Yeah. Or a Nova. Yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

I've been in both cars in my youth.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

And that might be. But that might not be what you want. And that's the difference of, like, getting what you want and getting what you need. And sometimes they align. Yes, Sometimes they do align, but many times they don't. And I didn't want to have no power, but apparently I need. And you know what's the most frustrating thing across the street? Power. Street behind me. Power. Street to the left of me. Power over the other way. Power. I was the only street that had no power. It drove me nuts. It was a group of like, you know, whatever, eight, ten houses, whatever the. The block is.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

And we all didn't have. And we just rode around. We're like, this is some what. You know how infuriating it is to wake up in the morning freezing, and you look out the window and you're like, they've got power.

[Sarah Weissman]

So what's interesting, though, is, like, so I know person, my family is from a different country where power went out all the time, right?

[Alex Ferrari]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Sarah Weissman]

No Internet most of the time. And so you received a firsthand, or I did this past winter of, you know, we're not the only ones in the world and what's happening in other places. And, like, this is the reality. So that brings a whole lot of compassion to, oh. What other people go through every single day. We're so lucky. It's miraculous. We live in this sort of Star Trek like existence with our cell phones and our. All our zoom calls.

[Alex Ferrari]

Our zoom calls, all our technology.

[Sarah Weissman]

People don't have it. Yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

And in a snap.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

All just garbage sitting there. Useless.

[Sarah Weissman]

That's right, useless. And you would be wishing. I wish I had a shovel. Maybe.

[Alex Ferrari]

You probably wish I had a propane tank.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yes.

[Alex Ferrari]

A barbecue. You know, so, you know, some firewood that's cut properly and it's not soaking wet. You know, these kind of things you just don't think about in your normal existence. But it made you shift. And I feel that the lessons I've learned in these last eight days are going to continue to unravel over the course of the weeks and months ahead as you start to really analyze what it was. But it's just a small, very small window into a larger journey that. That people are on.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah. And you don't even know yet what it all meant. Like, I would call the ice storm a disrupt, a synchronicity That's a disruption. All synchronicities are disruptors. They get us to pay. We're, you know, moving along. They synchronicity disruption. We pay attention, we're awake. We're doubly awake now. And I would guess that you were probably more conscious than awake in those moments of discomfort, you know, than in perhaps just, you know, when things are going smoothly.

[Alex Ferrari]

Yeah, it's. Yeah, it's pretty fascinating.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

Now, one thing I wanted to mention, and I love to hear your, your thoughts on this as well, is that again, I have a unique perspective. I've spoken to so many different channels and mediums and, and psychics and near death experiences and so on. But specifically with channels, there is a common thread to all channels that I've spoken to or I've been exposed to is that the power of change is within you. That these ideas of, like, it's within you to open up to the universe, it's within you to walk the path. Everything we've talked about is all within you. It's not like now if you buy my book, this is the, this is the way. Or I, I need a new jet. God told me I need a new jet. Can you please donate 50 bucks? There's that way or that you need to follow what I say in order to have salvation. No. We'll be right back after a word from our sponsor. And now back to the show. Every, every channel I've spoken to, all their messages are of love, of unity, of oneness, of the power is within you, that you are the divine. These are all common ideas and I've saw that in your work as well. So a lot of people that I try to explain channeling to and I'd love to hear what your thoughts are, I try to explain that to them because they're like, oh, it's a demon. I go, if it's a demon, you know, these kind of ideas, or it's a bad person or a bad entity or whatever you want to call it. I could, you know that. Well, I'm not hearing that. And if they are saying bad things, I'm not hearing that. All I hear is everything I told you about love, unity, power of the divine is within you. We're all here on a journey. We're all here in Seoul. It's all the same information from people from around the world.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

Different perspectives of life, all have the same idea. I'd love to hear what you have to say.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah, I think it's so interesting, people from around the world having such Similar messaging, especially as, like, I write for some different journals where collections of channels will write. And here we are, you know, 2023. What are, what are their messages? They're different than 2022. They're different than. So there's this progression of, you know, the, the shift and all of the big astrological markers. But what is coming from the guides, even though we're having probably different guide groups, is this consistency of messaging. I think it's interesting about channeling because I used to joke that it wasn't channeling unless it started with dear ones, because that's a phrase they always use. But there is this sense of affection, this sense of affection like you and I would have for, like, a puppy. Like, the guides are, like, so elevated. We're just like these cute puppies trying to help. Yes, babies. So dear ones. But there's also this sense for a lot of channels, like this repetition. And I feel like that creates almost like as you're reading it, almost like a trance or a prayer or it allows the languaging itself. Whether reading or read out loud allows the person to sink into a different dimension the same way you would maybe when you're meditating. It takes you to a place of understanding. And I find it really useful. Like, I read other people's work all the time, and I just, like, sink into it just for the joy of, like, that relaxation or that comfort or that energy level that seems to come from it. And I just find it fascinating that it's so consistent. People from Africa will have Jesus. People from, you know, like, different people from different cultures will have crossing over guides. And I find that fascinating, too. I mean, not just the guide you were born with or whatever. The guide from your own culture.

[Alex Ferrari]

Oh, absolutely. I mean, you. You read certain books and the words have a vibration to them. Yeah, there's just no question. I mean, you pick up Autobiography of a Yogi and read it for the first time. I mean, there's. The words just kind of vibrate off the page. It is. It's amazing. And there's so many books like that that they just have their own energy to them. And when you. When you read them, you go to a different place. I'd listen to a lot of audiobooks, so when you listen to channeled works, you just start like, hey, it's Ryan

[Alex Ferrari]

You almost go into it, almost into a trance of like, it's like a meditative place that you kind of go to where you're just in this place of understanding because it's all just remembering we all know the truth. It's just reminding us of all the truth. And, and as I think that we are now as a society, as a, as a collective on this planet, are much more open to this information and actually are searching for it. Hence why your work is done as well as it has. I can imagine from from 2005 to 2023, the amount of change that's happened.

[Sarah Weissman]

Oh my gosh.

[Alex Ferrari]

And the acceptance of what you do must have been astronomical.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah, that's right. Yeah. Yeah. And I'm so thrilled now with these younger generations, millennial, but more even Gen Z, how they are completely tuned into all this stuff like born. Yeah, we were born with it. And, and, and that is a sign that we're evolving. You know, our grandparents or our parents or our generation or even, you know, depending on what generation you are. But you know, we got part of it. But these ones coming in, it's just like, I don't know if it's their remember, you know, this idea that people are going to start remembering what they reincarnated from. I think these new generations are coming in with more memory, whereas we didn't have that. But it's pretty remarkable to see this, this oneness idea like in the ecology, in anti racism or genderism or sexism. They're just coming in as oneness. And that's pretty cool to see.

[Alex Ferrari]

Well, yeah, things that are happening today, there's an uproar over, you know, something in A race or a shooting or, or injustice. There's uproars about that. Where 60 years ago was business as usual. Yeah, absolutely business as usual. And, and it's not only happening in, in race and in other areas like that, but it's also happening in economics. It's also happening, yes. Everything science, it's happening in every aspect of, of human civilization. It's starting to. People are like no, this doesn't make sense. So like for a hundred years the concepts of quantum physics have basically been dormant with a couple of little adjustments. But now even scientists in the field are like no, we're going to go into string theory. We're going to, we're going to do things that are going to rock the boat. That was up there before where before there would just never would have happened. It just never would have happened. A show like this doesn't exist 20 years ago just does it? It's very, very difficult. Very, very difficult.

[Sarah Weissman]

Well, no one, no one was awake enough to understand the concepts even that the language. Well, well, or even just the bigger scope of what, you know, you do on your show. It wasn't available to people even. They might have been able to listen, but they wouldn't have been able to understand it. So yeah, so we're here we are now with some different ideas.

[Alex Ferrari]

Now in one of your books you, you mentioned the concept of suffering and bliss are the same. Can you explain that a little bit? Because that's a difficult concept to, to wrap your head around for most people.

[Sarah Weissman]

I know it seems like it's a concept most people would want to reject right away, but yeah, so that's one of the things about the channeling too is I get a lot of things. I'm like, my ego self is like ah, nah, this, this can't be right. And then I'll go in and ask again. But idea of suffering and bliss are the same. Is about one way to look at it is sufferings. This really like we talked earlier about this dark silky place of despair that going into the cave that's so comforting. You can just stay in your suffering and be a victim or you just hunker down and stay. And this idea, the bliss that they were talking about is more the super elevated bliss you might get from adrenaline or doing something really exciting or having something super wonderful happen. You know, you get an award or you do drugs or something. You know, just some way of jumping up to this high place. And they're just saying both of those are sort of extremes. And the place you want to Be is like the Buddhist way, the. More like the middle way. You want to be in this place of not going to either side because those are extreme states, and that's where the ego starts to get involved. The ego in the suffering state goes into victim. The ego into the bliss state goes into. I'm so awesome.

[Alex Ferrari]

I'm the most spiritual. I'm the best.

[Sarah Weissman]

I'm the most blissed out.

[Alex Ferrari]

I'm more spiritual than Jesus and Buddha put it together.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah. Yes, yes. I'm the most blissed out. And so we want to just. We want to just stay in a more place of like, hey, I'm a soul. I'm part of collective soul. I'm putting my piece of the puzzle in. I'm. I attempt to be. Have humility. I attempt to surrender whenever I can. I'm just a piece of. I'm a piece of the whole. I'm not the whole big deal. That's. That's sort of what we're trying to figure out there.

[Alex Ferrari]

It's kind of like if, If I may use an analogy, it's kind of like eating junk food. You go to the extreme of going to a fast food joint and eating food that, you know is not good, but it tastes really good on the way in and it feels really comfortable and it feels great. And you're like, kind of like being judgy or comparing yourself. It's very. It's seductive. But then the digestion kicks in and then all of a sudden you don't feel so good anymore. We'll be right back after a word from our sponsor. And now back to the show. And you're like, oh, that thing that I did earlier doesn't make me feel good anymore. So it's kind of the equivalence of. Of going having a, you know, a Big Mac or a Whopper, you know, hey, anyone who's eating that, knock yourselves out. I'm just, I'm not saying it, but you're having, you know, indulgent fast food, that's probably not the best for you, and, or having a healthy meal that might not have the addictive equivalence of a cheesecake, but, you know, in about an hour, you're not only going to feel good, you're going to feel great. Does that make sense? Is that fair?

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah. Yes. Except for I'd add on the other side. So we put the junk food on the suffering side. Maybe we'll put on the bliss side the super restricted, very specific healthy diet that, you know, I'm. I'm the most healthiest, absolutely and perfect. Yes. 2% body fat there. Yes, yes. Right. And so the, the universe is like, hey, just relax. Be grateful you have something to eat. A lot of people don't relax, be nice to each other. Maybe give your food away to someone else. You know, it's like this middle road of let's just avoid either of those.

[Alex Ferrari]

That's, that's this wonderful way of putting it.

[Alex Ferrari]

Yeah, we've talked a little bit about meaning and that we're here for a purpose. So many of us struggle with that, of finding that. Like you were, we were talking about the Chiclet and me talking about, you know, Spielberg and being a filmmaker. How do you discover why you're here? And again, it doesn't have to be grand. So many people think like, I have this grand, you know, I'm going to be, you know, save millions of lives. Like you could be someone who just takes care of your family.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

Man or female. Or you could just, you know, write the one book or you could just help your local community. But, but how do we find that thing that really gives us the thing that we're here to do?

[Sarah Weissman]

I think that's such a good question. Especially since a lot of the people talking about finding purpose are the authors or the podcasters or the teachers. And then everyone thinks, well, I have to be an author, a podcast or a teacher. And it's like, no, if the world was made up of those, right, we would never get our plumbing fixed. Or we would never get our food cooked. And I think for me it's pretty easy because my skill set is pretty specific to writing and talking and doing psychic work. But I can't do the rest of it. Like, I can't do cooking. I can't do. So. So I can do. I'm like, I'll just do my skill set because that's all I got. Other people are much more gifted. Like, they have like lots of gifts. But I think it's really what, what you were doing when you were little, you probably. Like, I was, I was reading religion books when I was six. You know, I was talking to plants and dead people when I was six. Like, I was just always doing this. So whatever you've been doing a long time and then whatever gives you that feeling of just super contributing. Like, where can I contribute the most? And that could be, look at the world, look at all the things we need. That could be anywhere. So I don't think that there's a specific path people have to take. Sometimes when I work with people in a reading, one of my questions is, what are your, what are your favorite spiritual practices that you do regularly? And they'll usually say, I meditate. And I'm like, okay, throw that one out. What else? And what I'm looking for is I like to ride my bike or I like to play with my dog or I love teaching the kids at the neighborhood school to read. I'm looking for that thing that is their specific like heart opening piece that gives them joy. And that's usually where this purpose is. It lies somewhere in that center of where that heart's. That heart opening pieces for most people.

[Alex Ferrari]

And would you agree that not everyone's purpose is going to be the main way they make money?

[Sarah Weissman]

Oh, yeah, for sure.

[Alex Ferrari]

That's some. That's another misnomer that everyone thinks that just because I want to sing and I was put on this earth to sing, that you're going to make a living doing that. And there's nothing wrong. You could be a plumber and sing on the weekends and you get to for sure do that. And that's. The ego doesn't like that. If I'm going to sing, I'm going to be Whitney Houston, I'm going to be Mariah Carey. I'm going to win America's Got Talent. I'm going to go do that. And there are people who do that. But most singers on the planet don't make a living doing it. You know, most writers don't make a living doing it, that's for sure.

[Sarah Weissman]

I even think that that's a part of our cultural misbelief, the last couple generations that sort of come about from Internet having exposure to a lot of people that are. But I don't think, I don't even think 30 or 40 years ago that that belief was. I mean most people were like, I work for a company or I work at home and then I have like. We had this thing back then called hobbies where people found their truth, their true, you know, so like, like. And that was their joy, was their hobby. So I think that's valid. I think you don't have to monetize. Yeah, we don't have to monetize.

[Alex Ferrari]

I mean it'd be nice if you could do what you love and get paid to do it, but that doesn't necessarily always line up. And it's not a lack of, it's not trying to crush a dream. It's just, it's just not, it might not be the path for you. And I love that you brought back hobbies because I remember hobbies. I remember hobbies. Like that was the thing. There's a hobby, there's hobby stores. Like, oh, you know, I knit on the weekends. I don't need to have a multi billion dollar knitting company, but I just like to knit on the weekends. Or I like to, you know, I like to write or I like to paint, or I like to do things for my own soul's purpose, just to get it out. And it doesn't have to be this grandiose thing, but I think the Internet, especially in the west, especially in the US that everything is kind of amped up on steroids, if you will. Like, if you paint, you've got to be Picasso. If you write, you've got to be Stephen King. You know, like you have to. It's always the big. But that's not the case because. And again, from where I come from in the film industry, everybody wants to be Spielberg, but there's, there's probably 200 to, let's say a best case scenario. A thousand filmmakers in the studio system and you're talking about millions of people from around the world who are trying to do that. The math doesn't add up.

[Sarah Weissman]

And you know, it's kind of funny because I just had this thought and this is may or may be, this may be totally untrue, but you know, Spielberg's probably sitting there right now going, darn, I wish I could go work on my woodworking hobby in the basement. Like he's just like this is too much pressure. So I want to go do woodworking.

[Alex Ferrari]

So you know what's funny is that I, because I know I've spoken to, in my other shows, I've interviewed a lot of these people, haven't spoken to Spielberg yet, but I'm hoping. But I spoke to someone who is an Oscar winner who worked with Ridley Scott. Ridley Scott, you know, who's a world famous director who did Gladiator and a million other films. What he does, he paints between movies. He is a painter. He loves to paint. Is he making a living off his painting? No, but that's his outlet when he's not directing. And he really is probably one of the most prolific filmmakers of all time. He's just, he just never stops. He's like 80, I think, at this point. Yeah, but most filmmakers only get to do their art for 30 to 50 days every two years.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

You know what I mean? The rest of the time is trying to.

[Sarah Weissman]

You've got to have the other life. Right, Right.

[Alex Ferrari]

And the most of the time is building up to get the thing made and then finishing it off and then promoting it. And then that's two years. But the actual art of doing it is, best case scenario, 30 to 60 days. If you're a Spielberg, maybe longer. But that's the general schedule for film.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah, yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

It's not a lot of time. So that's an example of someone who's a great artist, but his other art, it's not paying his bills. He probably sells them because he's famous, but generally speaking, that's not what he does. So it's just, just an example of a small example of that what you might love to do is not what you're able to do.

[Sarah Weissman]

And some people also, you know, this idea of we have little patches of soul of our life's work. You know, we might not do the same thing. Like, you know, someone might do something and then they do something else. And then some people are just naturally, very much. They have their, their fingers in a lot of different pies all the time. And that's perfect for them. Like they don't need to feel there's something wrong because they don't have the big purpose. It's like just be in your experience. It's totally fine to be in your experience and enjoy your participation in the earth. On the earth.

[Alex Ferrari]

Amen, sister.

[Sarah Weissman]

Yeah, yeah.

[Alex Ferrari]

Now I'm going to ask you a few questions. Ask all my guests. What is your definition of living a good life?

[Sarah Weissman]

Living a good life. Is participating at the best level you can that day, I suppose.

[Alex Ferrari]

Good answer. What is your definition of God?

[Sarah Weissman]

My vast oneness.

[Alex Ferrari]

And what is the ultimate purpose of life?

[Sarah Weissman]

I. I'll defer to my. The channeling. It's. The purpose of life is soul growth.

[Alex Ferrari]

And where can people find out more about you and the work that you're doing?

[Sarah Weissman]

Oh, they can find out about me@Sarah Wiseman.com and I do have, I think I can have a free mini course for those who want to explore intuition. It's called the Magic of Blind Reading. And, and it takes you through a process of you answer the question before you know what the question is. So it's pretty fun to try that out.

[Alex Ferrari]

And do you have any parting words for our audience?

[Sarah Weissman]

You know, this is an amazing time, and I think supporting each other in all the ways we can is really the way to go, because we're not really separate. We're just one big blob of collective soul, so we might as well start acting like that.

[Alex Ferrari]
