What if you grew up seeing ghosts and simply assumed everyone else could see them too?

That's essentially what happened to sisters Natalie and Stephanie. In this episode of The Shaman Stories Podcast, we explore their unusual journey from childhood paranormal experiences to becoming intuitive mediums, spiritual coaches, energy workers, astrologers and haunting investigators. Stephanie recalls seeing a ghost at around five years old while staying at a babysitter's house. As the sisters grew older, they eventually realized something surprising: not everyone was experiencing the things they considered normal. Rather than shutting those experiences down completely, they eventually began exploring Wicca, spirituality, energy work, astrology, mediumship and other traditions. Today, their work includes intuitive development, spiritual coaching, Reiki, astrology, paranormal investigation, helping spirits cross over and past-life regression.

In this conversation, we explore:
• Growing up seeing ghosts and experiencing psychic phenomena
• Why children may be more receptive to spiritual experiences
• Whether intuition is a gift or an ability everyone possesses
• Wicca and their early spiritual exploration
• Becoming spiritual eclectics rather than following one system
• Mediumship and communicating with spirits
• What actually happens during a haunting investigation
• Why they don't consider themselves traditional ghost hunters
• The Estes Method and paranormal communication
• Spiritual protection and energetic boundaries
• Why energy workers need to understand protection
• Shadow work and unresolved wounds
• Helping spirits cross over • Working with more difficult energies
• Clearing homes, businesses and real estate
• The energetic relationship between people, homes and land
• Astrology as a blueprint rather than fate
• Mercury retrograde and common astrology misconceptions 
 Past-life regression and Life Between Lives work
• Soul fragments and healing experiences connected to past lives
• Developing your intuition rather than blindly following someone else's method

One of the ideas we keep returning to is that intuitive abilities may not belong to a special group of people. Natalie and Stephanie describe intuition, mediumship and the different “clairs” as abilities that can potentially be developed rather than gifts reserved for a chosen few. We also go deep into paranormal investigation. Unlike investigators whose primary goal is capturing evidence, Natalie and Stephanie say their purpose is usually helping people who are frightened or confused by what's happening in their homes. When appropriate, that can include communicating with spirits, clearing the space and helping spirits move on. We also discuss something I believe is incredibly important for anyone doing spiritual or energetic work: Boundaries. Whether you're practicing Reiki, mediumship, paranormal investigation or another form of energy work, opening yourself energetically without understanding boundaries can create problems. This conversation gets into those subjects and much more.
