A Conversational Podcast

Please enjoy this lovely comment from the Sound Engineer of the Interspecies Evolution podcast:

"I want you to know something which just happened - and really a complete function of me listening to your podcast.

I’m a cat person. Now, I also happen to love chickens and until recently I had 14 of them - but I’m a definite cat person. My former cat, a 1/2 Siamese, giant white cat named Caspar and I would literally talk. He’d come in and tell me that the wind was blowing outside and if I could please do something about it. His water dish was low. It was time for a nap time (and I should stop working). Not ethereally. Literally.

He had a massive loud voice and was always talking. You’d swear you’d be carrying on a conversation with him. “Caspar, should I go out with Jill?” Raeow. “But she’s nice.” Raewowow. Hmm. What about Suzy. Reaowp. “You like her?” Reaowp. “Why?” Reaow...wowreaw. I mean it would be like this. He, sadly passed in 2016 at the ripe old age of 16 in my arms.

Currently, I’m in Los Angeles working on a project for my brother right now until end of January, and his cat is living with my parents where I’m staying. A very traumatized cat who hasn’t had the easiest of lives. Abandoned by her mother, she isn’t exactly taken well care of by my brother or wife. Although my parents do a fine job.

I started loving on her upon my arrival late November and being very kind to her like I would my chickens or cat. She immediately came to me when she’d have gotten outside at night when she shouldn’t have. She lets me pick her up - and she doesn’t really know me. Nice.

Well, tonight, she wouldn’t come in. It was dark, and we have coyotes you see. Many a cat has been consumed by these poor dogs who have no home due to the city. So I opened to the door and called after her, and she came running in at the sound of my voice. She’s usually miffed that she has to come in. But this time she ran.

This cat also only drinks water out of the running faucet. I was in the kitchen shortly after, and she bounded up to the sink in preparation for water. I turned on the faucet, but she refused to drink. She wanted to, but she wouldn’t.

She looked at me strangely. The water running. She looked at me. The water... and then I heard it: “I saw something really scary.”

It came telepathically to me obviously from her. I instantly remembered your podcasts and put my food down and consoled her.

“Oh, little girl I’m so sorry. But you shouldn’t be out after dark so you don’t have to see scary things.” I pet her and scratched her ears.

She immediately turned around and started drinking. And then was her normal self.

I tell you what Ginny, that was legit telepathy from an animal. My first in the etherium. I would have poo-pooed it without hearing your podcast.

Your show is making a difference. Even in your staff. Thank you."

Much of my work is about self-awareness and reclaiming our personal power, and I could write a book, a lengthy book, about why.  What I have seen and experienced in the metaphysical community, including much of shamanism, truly does not support one - human OR animal - in their evolution. In fact, most of what I experienced does just the opposite. Frankly, none of us know what we don't know until we do. And then, there are other perspectives and other experiences to be explored.

As it should be, there are many paths home, many legitimate ways to heal oneself, and millions of opinions about this. For years I have wanted to find a way to share my experiences without simply adding another angry opinionated voice to the already deafening sea of absolutist and arrogant wanna be Gurus who have all the answers.

Let me be clear, I don't have all the answers. Nevertheless, what I have to say may interest you anyway.

Humanity is currently experiencing a phase of great evolution. Many of us are redefining ourselves, our perspectives, and our relationships with both humans and animals. This has not been comfortable, in fact it has been quite painful for many of us. 

We are questioning everything we believe, everything we have been taught to believe. Many of our assumptions, things we have simply taken for granted, are crumbling. We are experiencing a collective cognitive dissonance, and some of us are keenly aware that it is creating a space for us to examine what we have been taught about ourselves and the world around us even in the metaphysical world.

As we begin to question the paradigm of masters, gurus, and healers, we must also ask ourselves to examine our relationship to animals. I have long held the concern that people expect too much from animals.

Far too many animal messengers tell us that all animals are here for us, it is their job to heal humanity and carry our burdens and illnesses. In my experience, and from what animals have shared with me, this is a grave misunderstanding.

From what I have witnessed, we have lost perspective, inner perspective and our connectedness to the truth of who we are. In this paradigm, humans are seeking something outside of ourselves to lead and heal us. In our desperation, we have thrust this responsibility on the animals while confusing their unconditional love and supportive messages with patronage and obligation. 

This is fostering our own learned helplessness and entangling us with animals in numerous ways. We are not helpless, but we believe we are. We have forgotten the truth of who we are, what we are capable of, and given our power away to a myriad of outside forces. 

We can not evolve in this state. We must reclaim our power and our sovereignty, our inner connection, but this means being self-aware and self-responsible. Many humans resist this conversation because it leads to accountability and that means doing the work necessary to heal our hearts and reclaim our connection to the divine.

On my journey, I have been guided to shine a light on this conversation, to promote the evolution of our consciousness as well as conscious relationships with animals. This means that we must understand our human experience, why we have chosen it, and become more self-aware. Only then, in our full power, can we begin to understand what animals are experiencing.

To this end, I have created a new conversational podcast called Interspecies Evolution™ which will bring forth alternative perspectives and life experiences from those who are actively navigation this exciting journey back to self-awareness.

Please join me and my amazing guests on this revolutionary new podcast. May we all reclaim our power and return to living in balanced relationship to animals, plants and the Earth.

NOW is the time for Interspecies Evolution™!
