Publisher's summary

In this best-selling memoir, Marla Frees reveals her extraordinary life journey from a small-town girl in a troubled family to a stage and TV actress and ultimately one of the country’s most respected transformational psychic mediums. Her tales of a harrowing childhood, burgeoning career in Hollywood, and astounding psychic and spiritual adventures along the way reveal the resilience and heights of the human spirit. U.S. military psychic spies, homicide cases, messages from the other side, spiritual healing - Marla Frees was given a gift from “Spirit” that she uses to help others.

In this audio edition, Marla delivers her narrative as only she can, reliving all the drama and humor of her life in her inimitable, dynamic voice. In a story that acclaimed author Brian Weiss, MD (Many Lives Many Masters) calls “powerful and fascinating,” Marla takes us into realms that will astonish, inspire - and heal.

Fantastic!

Finished this in a few short days as Marla’s provocative writing and riveting storytelling made it easy! She shares intimately & openly her path and how she discovered her gift of being a psychic medium. I was touched by her ability to be raw with personal details. It was a “hard to put down book” as I didn’t want to miss what happened “next” in her adventures & discoveries! I found it to be fascinating and inspiring. Thanks Marla ❤️

LOVE

Beautifully written. Her story will keep you on the edge of your seat. I was sad that it ended. Thank you Marla for sharing your story that so many of us can relate too. It helps me forgive the pain my Mother put my sister and I through.

Must Listen!

Marla's story is inspiring and relatable. I read the book when it first came out several years ago and decided to listen to it because it's read by the author. Hearing Marla read her story added a dynamic that I had not picked up on from reading it. I loved hearing Marla's voice, like hearing your best friend tell you the most exciting adventure of a story. It felt like I was right there with Marla, experiencing each moment just as she had. Worth your time and the money!

OK, Not Great

I listened to the end but the last 3 hours were a real slog.

weird reaction

It was a good listen/read. I became emotional in the middle beginning in chapter 13. No idea why. it must have tapped into something.

Vulnerable account of pain turned into purpose!

Wow.This book has just opened an entire new world for me and the trajectory of my life. I don't know how, but I can sense I will be able to use this book as a milestone in my life when I look back to the time I read it. My biggest takeaway was the absolute humility and realness of the author. The world needs more women who model such authenticity!I just want to emulate her!! Sharing her own abuse as a child with such vulnerability was so brave. She takes you on a journey of her skepticism through each new spiritual experience she encounters, and all the while, it felt like it was reflecting my OWN skepticism. Yet in the end as she came to form her beliefs, and find her truth, so did I! ❤️‍🔥

Riveting! Raw, touching. Relatable,! I believe!

Marla Frees is the real deal! This book is a journey of Ms. Frees lifelong path to opening herself to her gifts, and choosing to embrace them, and share them to love/ help others.
Very interesting life she has lived.

Beautifully written story of psychic gifts and supernatural support.

I couldn’t put this book down.

Telling the story about how psychic gifts are developed is like trying to catch lightning in a mason jar. And yet, Marla has somehow done it beautifully with honesty, skill, and grace. This book offers healing for people with psychic abilities that were born from childhood trauma, help for those who search for answers from beyond, and a glimpse at the entertainment business as well as the world of Spiritualism.

I found many “connections” to my own life and shared many laugh out loud moments as well as a few tearful ones as I binged listening to American Psychic.

Great storytelling and an honest look at what it’s like living with Spirit!

LIFE CHANGING!!!!

I have read dozens and dozens of books by gifted mediums/intuitive healers- this one by FAR is my favorite! Her storytelling is captivating, heartfelt and inspiring. I had the joy of speaking with her in person and that conversation changed my life forever. Huge fan. Will read over and over again!
