We take the spooky conversation deeper, from training in mediumship and shamanic practice to the ethics of working with intuition in everyday life and business. We share moments we cannot rationalise…

Anyway, this week, getting us back on topic, we're taking the conversation a little bit further.
We've both trained in mediumship and shamanic practice and all kinds of other energy-based disciplines.
We've also learned loads about listening to our instincts, recognising when our imaginations might be running away with us and knowing when to question
And we're going to talk, aren't we, about some of the experiences that have led us into the work that we do now, what we've learnt.
along the way and I suppose how intuition shows up in our everyday life too and that could include some of the things that's happened around my dad's death yeah we talked about that
experiences we've had when we've been travelling as well which has been really interesting and other moments in life in our professional lives really there's quite a lot to talk about
is there is we're also going to dive into automatic writing we might even touch on ghost writing because haha it's a shame to miss up on that kind of punnage isn't it automatic writing creativity and the difference between intuition and just making an educated guess which you know given that we both work with people words and ideas for a living is quite an important distinction we promised we would bring you back to books brands and business though so we are going to be keeping to that promise but we might
let's start with how we got from experiencing unusual things well not unusual to us i guess to actually learning how to work with them and by the way if you haven't yet listened to last week's episode you might want to go and do that this will be okay if you haven't but it's a nice little warm-up for this one so ash yeah When did you first decide that you wanted to understand some of these kind of experiences rather than just living
I think probably a lot of my kind of negative beliefs around going to things and looking at things on the other side.
Yeah, we talked about that in the last episode, if you're wondering what I'm talking about.
