Words cannot express the gratitude I feel for all the listeners and global following this podcast has created over of the last seven and half years it's been on the air.

It is with a full heart and open mind that I bid farewell to my baby—I'm Awake! Now What? Podcast. It started as a place for me to build community and resonance with like-minded seekers and aspirants who were looking for answers to the deep questions. And rebels on their way to chart a new path and new Earth.

My intention was to create a community for people who had left their religion of origin, identified as spiritual or non-religious but whose shared goal was to become better human beings and create a better world, through self-exploration, personal development, and healing.

Our world view and experience of the divine has been shifting and changing over the last 50 or more decades. We no longer require or want a mediator to connect to God anymore. Many of us are returning to earth-based practices and intuitive self-knowing to cultivate our relationship and connection to God, Source, The Divine. This podcast has been a place where people could come and explore their own divinity and connection to divine, without structure, dogma, judgment, or instruction.

This Sunday I sat down with the internationally renowned Psychic Medium Karen Docherty. Karen shares her early familial and spiritual influences, the nature of grief, and the role of spirit guides in our conversation. We explore the concepts of reincarnation, past lives, and staying connected to our soul families and source. Karen explains why setting a clear intention with our spirit guides helps them to collaborate more effectively with us in our physical world. She also emphasizes the healing power of staying connected to the spirit world and the importance of personal responsibility in spiritual development.

This Sunday I sit down with author Ellen Kohn to discuss her new book "Be Like the Wind: Three Equines Channel Spiritual Light" which explores the spiritual guidance offered by horses and the importance of listening to nature. Ellen delves into themes of healing, trust, and the co-creative relationship between humans and animals, highlighting the lessons learned from both sides. We share our insights on grief, animal communication, and the spiritual connections we maintain with our pets even after they pass. She discusses the importance of energy work, the impact of past lives on our current experiences, and the necessity of spiritual alignment for personal growth.
