What if healing isn’t just in your mind—but in your energy field?

Andrea sits down with Dr. Shamini Jain, clinical psychologist, scientist, and founder of the Consciousness and Healing Initiative, for a powerful look at the science behind energy healing. From Reiki and intention affecting cancer cells to the healing power of human connection, Dr. Jain shares groundbreaking research that bridges science and spirituality.

They explore “healing volition,” the role of the biofield, and why joy, presence, and connection are essential to wellness. Whether you’re a healing practitioner or just curious, this episode will expand your understanding of what’s truly possible.

Andrea reunites with spiritual medium and author Carole J. Obley to explore her 30-year career journey, spanning over 15,000 readings, and the inspiration behind her newest book, The Art of Sensing. Carole shares the pivotal moments that launched her into a life of soul-led service, and she explains why welcoming both struggle and surrender is vital for spiritual growth. You’ll discover practical methods for tuning into your inner world, spotting synchronicities, and discerning intuition from the rational mind. Learn how brief, daily practices of mindful listening can reveal the clarity and compassion already within you. Carole also introduces the idea of “soul pods” and closes with the uplifting reminder: “Everything you need, you already have.”
