In this unforgettable episode of Interviews with Innocence, Marla sits down with Laurie and Eric Kirkland to share a story that feels almost cinematic in its intensity — and yet, every word is true.

Forty years ago, while camping in the Calico Mountains, Laurie and Eric's beloved dog Jesse vanished without a trace. What followed was a week of heartbreak, relentless searching, radio ads, flyers, and a 500 dollar reward.

And then… a psychic entered the story.

What she revealed would guide them to a shocking discovery — including a mysterious collapsed mine shaft, a "big green rock," and a desperate race against time.

Seven days after disappearing in open desert surrounded by coyotes, Jesse was found alive.

In this episode, we explore:

✨ The emotional toll of losing a beloved animal
✨ Why they decided to call a dog psychic
✨ The details she described that proved eerily accurate
✨ The moment she screamed, "He's out!"
✨ The meaning of intuition and unseen guidance
✨ How this experience shifted their view of psychic ability
✨ Eric's later experience with medium John Edward
✨ Signs from loved ones in spirit

This conversation is about devotion, persistence, and the mysterious ways hope sometimes answers back.

Sometimes faith looks like searching one more canyon.

In this inspiring episode of Interviews with Innocence, Marla sits down with Stevie Calista—an astrologer, artist, intuitive channel, and founder of Farmhouse Moon. Stevie brings a grounded, heart-led approach to astrology, blending ancient teachings with intuition, spiritual insight, and compassionate guidance.

Stevie believes our birth chart is a soul map—a blueprint of the lessons, gifts, and karmic patterns we carry into this lifetime. Through her work, she helps people remember who they truly are beneath conditioning, expectations, and fear, and invites them back into alignment with their deepest truth.

Together, Marla and Stevie explore:

✨ How astrology serves as a healing tool
✨ The birth chart as a karmic blueprint and map of the soul
✨ Old souls, past lives, and intuitive remembering
✨ The North and South Nodes — and what they reveal about purpose
✨ How children can benefit from astrology at an early age
✨ Why understanding your rising sign can change everything
✨ Astrology as a form of "spiritual science"
✨ The ways astrology supports awakening, self-trust, and inner peace
✨ Why today's children are here to rebuild a more awakened world

Stevie also shares her own intuitive awakening, her journey from skepticism to spiritual leadership, and how tracking the moon cycles has transformed the way she moves through life.

This conversation is filled with insight, empowerment, and the reminder that we all carry ancient wisdom within us — and astrology is simply a pathway home.

In this heart-opening conversation, Marla reconnects with Nic Whitem, a lifelong healer and spiritual teacher who has dedicated his later years to preserving the wisdom of Silver Birch — one of the most beloved voices in modern spiritual philosophy.

Nic shares how his journey from the fast-paced world of international finance to running a holistic retreat in the UK was guided by the Spirit World itself. His story is one of trust, surrender, and rediscovering purpose through service to others.

Together, Nic and Marla explore how Silver Birch's timeless teachings—rooted in love, compassion, and truth—offer clarity for our modern lives. They discuss the importance of open-minded spirituality, the power of listening to our intuition, and how children and animals can help us remember our connection to the unseen world.

This episode is a beautiful reminder that spirituality isn't about religion or doctrine—it's about remembering who we truly are and how we can bring more light into the world through understanding, kindness, and presence.

Whether you're new to the teachings of Silver Birch or simply seeking inspiration for your spiritual path, this conversation will uplift your heart and remind you that we are never alone on our journey.
