A native American Seer Pyschic & Healer
A native American Seer Pyschic & Healer
My first interview is with a Native American or Choctaw seer, psychic, and healer.
Choctaw people are indigenous people from the Southeastern United States known as farmers, traders, and warriors.
This episode begins with a few minutes of an example of a consultation. We then shift into an interview to understand when Tu Bears started to really know that she had this gift. We discussed the evolution of her skills as well as how it helps her and others. Tu Bears emphasizes the importance of a spiritual practice, something that would benefit all of us. While not all of us have the abilities that she has, many of us can tap into our intuition to help best guide us in life.

Don Ron Wheelock, "The Gringo Shaman of Peru"
Don Ron Wheelock, "The Gringo Shaman of Peru"
My third interview is with a man born in Kansas who was always drawn to plants and traditional ways of life. He was serendipitously brought to Peru to be introduced to Shamanism in the mid- 90's and immediately gravitated to what would become his future as "The Gringo Shaman of Peru."
I met him on an ayahuasca retreat in 2019 and was deeply impressed by his spirituality and devotion to his expertise- Shamanism and the mother of all plants, Ayahuasca.

Mahadev Vedic Astrologer & Former Western Astrologer I discovered Mahadev back in 2013 when I was pregnant with my second child. He told me that this child would be more willful than the first. My thoughts were, "That is not possible" and he was correct.
As mentioned above, he encouraged me to study Jyotish, knowing my deep love for astrology. He had practiced western astrology for decades and told me that it was present in my chart. I never thought I would have time for that, but in the spring of 2020, I ended up having a plethora of time and happened upon a class and a wonderful teacher. Mahadev continues to be someone I turn to in times of stress or in need of further insight. I met him at a Vedic Astrology Conference once in Arizona having never met him before, being a New Mexico resident. To schedule a consult, use the email or telephone number below.

Stanley Sagov, MD Family Practice Physician & Jazz Musician One of my interviews is with a man born, raised, and primarily educated in South Africa. He came to the United States to learn and practice Jazz but also to work as a medical physician.
After working in various areas of medicine at multiple facilities, he founded the Family Practice Group in Arlington Massachusetts. He is what I would call "a cowboy" in the field of medicine. With training in a country where everyone delivered babies and practiced minor surgeries like appendectomies and such, he worked in the US as a true family doctor up until his recent retirement but always with the backdrop of Jazz music as the fire that ignites him daily. Learn more about Stanley as a healer in the field of mainstream medicine, a place where doctors often get lost in the business of medicine. Remember, many come to the field with a love for healing, but sadly, the system does a pretty good job of making it hard to access that reality.
