Key Discussion Points & Insights

Jessica’s Foundational Story: Listening to Spirit

[04:02–09:59]

• Jessica shares her pivotal 2014 “nervous breakdown,” recounting how a recovery period from illness led to a spiritual awakening, where she audibly received guidance to start her next business, “Simply Be,” rooted in truth.
• Quote: “That voice led me pretty much here, sitting in my home, recording this podcast… since that moment on that tiny little patch of grass when I heard spirit speak to me for the first time, like, really heard it.” ([04:56])
• Sets stage for the episode’s theme: we all have access to spiritual guidance.

Nichole Bigley’s Spiritual Hustle & Mission

[11:01–12:17]

• Nichole received a “download” that her spiritual hustle is “help[ing] people remember their connection to the divine,” emphasizing that we have a spiritual bill of rights as energy beings.
• Psychic ability is the through-line to this connection.
• Quote: “It gets a bad rap or people don’t think they’re psychic... remembering and knowing that we’re always connected to the divine.” ([11:29])

“Everyone is Psychic”—Nichole’s Origin Story

[12:39–14:34]

• Nichole recounts her first psychic memory at age 4: recalling choosing her parents before birth and a cosmic journey into human life.
• She assumed everyone had such memories, realizing only later it was unique.
• Nichole’s mission is to help others tap into this ever-present spiritual connection.

Demystifying Intuition and the Psychic Senses

[15:18–17:10 | 18:57–21:49]

• There are many “Clairs” (psychic senses)—everyone has a dominant one that mirrors preferred modes of perception in daily life.
• Practical example: ignoring a “nudge” at the supermarket (e.g., buy eggs) is a subtle form of psychic guidance that gets quieter with disuse.
• Nichole likens psychic ability to playing the piano—some are prodigies, but everyone can “play chopsticks” with practice.
• Encouragement: Trusting intuition is the key; paying attention and honoring small “hits” opens the channel.

Quote:

• “Think of your intuition as the channel. The channel can receive from your higher self and from you.” (Nichole, [19:18])

Distinguishing Personal Intuition from Spiritual Guidance

[19:18–21:49]

• The intuition channel picks up information from many sources: higher self, guides, angels, ancestors, intergalactic beings.
• Unpacking nudge origin: When you sense something, hold gratitude for the awareness—questioning simply opens you further.
• Quote: “When you are maybe questioning in that moment and…the more you start to remove the questioning and you begin to trust…that’s when you really become aligned and connected to yourself and to source.” (Nichole, [20:59])

Building Spiritual Hygiene and Daily Practice

[27:57–30:00]

• Nichole describes her morning practice:
  • Before rising, checks in on her emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual layers.
  • Uses changes in mood or feeling throughout the day as intuitive indicators—asks “Is this mine? Is this someone else’s? Is it something else’s?”
  • Recommends pausing to question, then releasing or exploring further.
• This daily attention strengthens both intuition and connection to spirit.

Working with a Spirit Team

[22:29–27:44]

• Spirit teams: Beyond “guardian angels,” your support group in the spirit realm can include loved ones, angels, saints, ascended masters, intergalactic and celestial beings.
• Some members come and go based on what you need; others are for life, per soul contract.
• Invitation and intention are essential—spirit help honors your free will.
• Jessica’s Experience: In a breathwork journey, she saw her spirit team in a semi-circle, a common formation described by Nichole.

Quote:

• “They all have representation of certain expertise or skill sets or certain things…if you’re feeling that call, chances are they’re stepping forward.” (Nichole, [23:41])

The Times We’re In: Awakening and the New Earth

[31:02–35:14]

• Nichole and Jessica discuss Earth’s role as the “heart chakra of the galaxy”—a place to FEEL and create, experiencing duality and stirring awakening.
• We’re living through a tipping point—a collective remembering and energetic shift, where sovereignty and spiritual connection are central.
• Quote:
  • “Earth is the most emotional planet. It’s like the heart chakra of the galaxy.” (Nichole, [33:44])
  • “There’s this fever pitch. I feel like it’s reached… a tipping point.” (Jessica, [33:24])

Nichole’s Entrepreneurial Journey: Building a Spiritual Business

[36:09–42:37]

• The genesis of “A Psychic Story” podcast—a “dark night of the soul” even at the “top of the mountain.”
• Seven months asking Source: “What am I missing?”… finally receiving “Start a podcast.”
• The podcast’s real purpose: building connection, community, and combating loneliness—not monetization.
• More recently, Nichole left her corporate job to build a spiritual community and platform, guided by intuitive downloads despite uncertainty about monetization.
• Quote:
  • “I turned in my notice…I choose, right? I do not quit.” (Nichole, [38:06])
  • “It was not about the money part of it. It was really more they said, this is needed.” ([36:59])

Community & Sacred Retreats

[38:42–41:34]

• Nichole’s retreats, including a recent pilgrimage to Egypt, were guided by spirit and marked by trust, surrender, and deep transformation.
• Integration: Community, in-person connection, and spiritual experience catalyze profound change.

Podcast & Community Building: Longevity & Strategy

[42:37–44:12]

• Nichole credits “consistency” as the key to podcast and business growth—showing up for your community is more important than perfection of content.
• Authenticity and passion are non-negotiable.
• Quote: “If you are authentic and you have passion for it and you’re consistent, then that’s going to shine through always and the right people are going to reach you.” (Nichole, [43:40])

Angels, Guides & Galactic Beings—Rapid Fire

[48:21–54:48]

• Favorite spiritual resource: The Matrix (movie) for the “unlocking of awareness,” and “The Untethered Soul” by Michael Singer for practical spirituality.
• Personal guides: Archangels Michael and Raphael, plus new connections to Isis and Mary Magdalene, especially after Egypt.
• Aliens? Yes—a vivid personal experience with a ship, but prefers celestial over intergalactic connection.
• Quote: “I had a video I posted on social… it stayed there for like eight hours… That to me proved free will. Yes. Because they were. I hear you. And when you’re ready.” ([53:33])

Co-creating the New Earth: Final Reflection

[54:23–54:44]

• Nichole’s answer to what it means to be a co-creator:
  • Helping people realize they are not alone, that they’re always connected to the divine.
  • Encouraging intuitive and psychic capacity as normal and accessible.
• Quote: “It’s not hard.” (Nichole, [54:44])
