1) Tell us a little bit about you and what you do!
I began my path 30 years ago as a comic doing a cable public access show. I noticed that the station featured psychic call-in shows and I decided to do it, calling myself ‘The Psychic Housewife’. I was known as the funny housewife with a unique gift. I would do “readings” for the call-ins. So many people would contact me after my shows, telling me how accurate I had been and asking for readings. I was always shocked when they told me my predictions came true because I thought I was making it up. What began as entertainment turned into a calling that has brought me to present day.
Today, I’m known as Psychic Shirley, a clairvoyant, clair-audient, medium, empath and clarity coach. My comedic edge and psychic gift combine to provide each of my clients an accurate, powerful and always lighthearted perspective. Often, it’s this humor that relaxes clients, giving me an energetic ‘in’ to seeing what is happening in their lives - if you’re not ready to laugh, I’m not the psychic for you!
I sometimes feel like a psychic chiropractor; I see what’s out of alignment and can lend advice for small adjustments so things can go differently, for energy to flow more productively, and it’s this type of work that makes me the type of psychic a person comes back to regularly over the course of their lives. The tiny adjustments we make together lead to a life consciously lived by the client.
During our session, I’ll have tons of tissues on hand, because we’ll both be crying as much as we laugh. Please know that your secrets are safe with me (I typically clear my mind of what we’ve discussed within 24 hours).
2) You use a lot of comedy in your work, has comedy always been apart of your life?
Yes! I grew up in the Midwest and my parents were Holocaust Survivors who loved to laugh - it was definitely a laughter through tears kind of upbringing. Both Mom and Dad loved to listen to Jewish comedians on vinyl, watched them on TV, went to comedy shows - you’d be surprised how many New York comics worked the “Temple belt” across the country. So, I learned early on that if I could make them laugh it would be a good day for me. When I came to LA, it was to do stand-up and be a comedy writer! Laughter is the highest vibration!
3) Do you find that Angels and Spirit Guides have humor?
In my experience, it’s the Spirit Guides and energies of loved ones who come through during sessions with a funny image for me to translate. I can’t explain it, but I can always feel when the energy of someone’s loved one who has passed has a sense of humor and I tap energies of people who are still here and I can tell when they have a sense of humor, too! It just FEELS lighter. I think the Angels love my humor though and they come to me when THEY need a laugh - they do so much work for us and I don’t have a 2 drink minimum so they come hang out in the office and relax. I count on the archangels to do the heavy lifting but they like to smile, too.
4) What’s the most difficult part of your job?
Hitting a stuck clot of energy in a client’s debris field and not being able to help them get through it. Only therapy can do that and not everyone likes to hear my suggestion that they should talk to a therapist! I like to knock every reading out of the ballpark and I can’t always do that because my readings are only as good as what I am allowed to resonate to in my clients’ energies. Hence, therapy!
5) Who are some people who have inspired you or helped you on your path?
My analyst, Tracey Woodward, who passed away over 20 years ago and taught me to read the Major Arcana in the way I do. Also, I have a few “mentors” who are my go to people when I feel overwhelmed. They are in their 80s and wouldn’t want to be named! I’m grateful the most for my clients who are my teachers as I learn something new for myself in every reading I do. Oh, a shout out to my friend, Jeannine Brousseau, an iconic hair stylist in LA who encouraged me to start doing readings at her salon for the clients who were sitting with hair color processing and preferred me over an old People magazine. She believed in me and my work was first noticed there with a little mention in LA Magazine that I am ever so grateful for!
6) What’s the funniest moment you’ve had with a client?
A wonderful woman came in for a reading and her dearly departed Grandma came in with a message. As I was relaying what I was “hearing” a HUGE bumblebee flew in the open office door, flew around the room in a perfect circle while we were screaming and then flew right out. Of course, it was no surprise that her Granny’s nickname was, yup, BUMBLE! I had to stop the session for several minutes so we could roll around the floor laughing!
7) What are your favorite Tarot/Oracle decks and why?
I’m partial to the Visconti because it was the deck I learned on. I also love the Mucha Tarot because it’s so feminine. I was just given the Dali Tarot by Taschen and it is really speaking to me. My decks are like my kids, though, hard to choose a favorite without thinking I’m hurting one of their feelings! Decks do have feelings, you know!
8) What’s your advice for someone who it’s their first reading and they are a little scared or nervous?
I would tell them to do their research - not just online but by asking friends for referrals. I so appreciate when someone comes to me for their first reading. I’m very gentle with them and appreciate that they’ve chosen me. I would also say that the fear or nervousness gets in the way of the reading sometimes, so they should keep in mind that any reading, after all, is a form of entertainment and we all have FREE CHOICE. I think the future is written in #2 pencil and we should always carry a big spiritual Faber eraser with us. Don’t be frightened, kids, it’s only me!
9) What’s your favorite part about living in California?
The sunshine, of course! And the ocean! And celeb spotting…And the fact that most people who live here, CHOOSE to live here and we can be whoever we want to be.
10) How can we find out more about you?
I’m going to be relocating to the Palm Springs area and I’m looking forward to seeing old and new clients in the energy of the desert. THAT should be a wonderful change and it’s happening in the next few months. I’ll continue to see clients in LA for one week out of the month for up to year or more if I miss LA too much!
1) Tell us a little about you and what you do!
My name is Laurence and for over a decade now I have been working in the hospitality industry. It wasn’t always my dream though. I actually started my studies at The Fashion Institute of Technology in the Fashion Design Program. I quickly found out that was not for me. I have always been creative, able to draw and craft, but I am not one for competition. Everything there was a competition… who could illustrate the best, who could sew the best and even on smoke breaks who could smoke the best… okay maybe not but it definitely felt like it.
I found the hospitality industry through luck I would say. An internship in high school with Danny Meyer’s and the Union Square Hospitality Group opened my eyes to the possibilities of this industry and besides the short FIT stint I haven’t left it since. Over the last two years I have launched three catering companies, and one restaurant. Unfortunately the restaurant is now closed. It makes me sad to see things I have put so much time and energy in not work out, but it is also part of this industry. I am still doing catering, working for myself is a true pleasure, it is mind numbing at times. I have always been a problem solver, a hard worker and I feel like at times I truly make the impossible, possible.
2) What is something that has impacted your journey this year and how has it changed you?
I am not sure I can just name one thing, there have honestly been so many this year, both good and bad. I feel like this year I have really begun to get closer with Spirit and that happened because earlier this year my sister Heather passed. I was blessed to be able to sit with Thomas John for a private reading and it really made me want to focus more on getting to know Spirit. More than that though, I also went to jail for three months. It can be a soul crushing experience and if I didn’t have spirit with me I know it would have been even worse.
This year has had many lessons for me. The two most important would have to be boundaries and surrender. I am and always have been a very giving person and this year has taught me that I need to give to myself, as well as learn to not give so much of myself to others. I guess the theme of 2019 was growth for me, and when I didn’t want to Spirit kicked my ass till I got with the program.
3) I know you got to meet Thomas John, what was the experience like?
Honestly it was surreal. He is so kind, and his gifts are just off the charts. Being able to have a private reading with him was definitely a highlight of my 2019! When I was sitting there it was like he was just picking things out of the air and he was definitely speaking to my recently passed sister. He told me that I came in with an entourage of Spirit and that they are always working on my behalf. That’s when I really thought “Hey, I need to know more!”.
4) In the restaurant industry, what is a key element in creating an enjoyable experience?
The employees. Above all else the employees! I can’t say how many times I have dined at a dump diner and had an amazing server and gone again and again… not because of the frozen hamburger, but because the server was fantastic! When the staff enjoys where they work, for who they work and with whom they work, you can really see how it can change the whole dynamic of a restaurant.
5) How do you personally raise your vibration?
A) It starts with a breath. Sometimes we forget to breathe, and I’m not talking the little shallow breaths we take to get through the day. I am talking about the mind full breath. Relax your shoulders, cause mine are always up to my ears when I am stressed and just focus on the sound of your breath. Then I do an inventory of my body and direct any healing energy to spots that need attention. The grand finale is I imagine white, silver and gold light flowing through my body. We are all beings of light so I like to focus on that as I speak to spirit.
6) Who are 3 people who have inspired you this year and why?
A)Thomas John: for someone who is so gifted he is so grounded and kind. He has reignited this yearning in myself to learn and know more.
B) Raven Adams: left a job she hated to pursue her true passion, her gift and life purpose. She (you) is a true testament of self love and courage. She (you) doesn’t always realize how powerful she is, but I like to remind her of this and she does the same for me.
C) Spirit: cause no matter how many times I ask the same question and pull the same card they will never leave me or judge me… even when I ask the same stupid question 12 different ways. Spirit puts up with my bullshit and I appreciate that.
7) What’s a truth about you that most people don’t realize?
I have this almost debilitating fear of being alone, but I also love my own space and solitude. It’s a little tricky and ironic. I’ve been working hard though with spirit, because if I seek spirit when I feel alone I begin to realize… duh no your not.
8) What is one word that changed your life this year? SURRENDER
Spirit has been kicking my ass with this word. Like might as well have taken out ad space in Time Square and sat me right in front of it. It is EVERYWHERE! It really helped me though, especially when I was in jail. I just kept telling spirit and myself that I have to surrender to whatever happens and to whatever happens next. It was in that moment that I was still enough to really have a conversation with Spirit. It’s hard to get back to that mind frame. When you are in jail there is nothingness. It’s like a vacuum or deprivation chamber, it’s lonely and isolating. There I found solace and comfort in Spirit.
9) What is one goal you want to accomplish this year?
Follow through-
I want to learn more about my spirit guides
I want to learn more about myself
I need to build and maintain boundaries
Self love
10) What’s your advice to people that need to embrace change?
Surrender! If you don’t then you are going to have a very tough time swimming against the current. Trust me I know!
1) Tell us a little bit about you & what you do!
My name is Elizabeth April, and I am a 27-year-old channeller. To be honest, I’ve never really known what to call myself since none of the traditional labels really fit. I have an ability to receive downloads/messages from the Universe in the form of visuals. Sometimes I like to call myself the Universal Google since all it really takes is asking the right question.
Although I am not a fourth-generation psychic or anything, I have had a variety of gifts and abilities since I was younger. I don’t really know the names of most of what I do but here is a list so you can get an idea.
The ability to tap into time which allows me to explore timelines, hidden human history, past lifetimes, as well as future lifetimes.
The ability to touch an object and receive a message from the object, such as the emotions surrounding the object, the origin of the object, the energy stored within the object, who owns the object (if anyone) and so forth.
The ability to visually see auras and chakras around someone but also around plants and animals.
The ability to remote view or astral travel. This allows me to explore things like other planets, flying spacecraft, different locations around the world as well as travel to other dimensions through energetic portals.
Telepathy, the ability to read thoughts/energy from people’s minds and the ability to connect to inter-dimensional beings to channel their messages.
Healing, the ability to see and move energy within a person experiencing a disharmonic state.
The ability to visually see sounds interpreted by colours. As an example, if a car passes me by, I will be able to tell you what colour the sound is making! LOL
Quantum Downloads, the ability to receive, process and translate large amounts of data surrounding how this Universe operates and the function of vibrational consciousness.
My “career” or should I say, purpose, really got started when I began doing past life regressions on friends and family members when I was around 17/18. I had such a profound experience myself at the age of 16 with a past life regression that I was determined to give others the same life-changing experience as I had. Upon understanding my own past lives and comprehending the complexity of life, I started to wake up to the fact that almost everything I have been told was a lie… and thus began my epic journey to get to where I am right now.
Since then, I have expanded myself to explore past and future lives off this planet, connect with the Galactic Federation of Light and help humanity understand their purpose.
2) What is your favorite race to work with?
I especially love working with the Tall Grey Zeta. Personally I consider them to be my cosmic soul family. At age 18 when I started having very vivid flashbacks, I recalled to a past life where I was a Tall Grey Zeta Ambassador!
I also mostly work with the Elder Councils of the Galactic Federation of Light (GFL). These Elder Councils have a wide variety of inter-dimensional beings on them. They call them Elder Councils because they are indeed super old, some even immortal. They have lived many lives and possess a deep understanding of Universal truths and ancient wisdom. They help to make major decisions to help the GFL in their fight for balance.
I also specifically work a lot with the Pleiadian Security Council within the Galactic Federation of Light. They are a group of about 8 Pleiadian beings who make decisions specifically based on the safety and balance of Planet Earth and Human Beings.
3) If someone wanted to connect with aliens, what would be the easiest technique?
The easiest technique would simply be to ask. The GFL and your cosmic spirit guides want you to connect to your true self. Humans tend to get too caught up in their own attachment to physical bodies. The further we attach ourselves to the present moment the more difficult it is to escape this Matrix. We are unable to manifest unless we ASK for what we want. The Universe has a strict policy of non-intervention. This means, that unless you ask, they will not present themselves to you. Likewise, though, you could be asking for a UFO sighting your whole life and never encounter it. The key is your vibration has to be in resonance with who you are attempting to connect too.
4) Do you get a lot of people judging you because of what you do?
Honestly, when I began, I was unsure of myself. These days I don’t allow others’ opinions to affect me. I know I’m weird and don’t fit in with the conventional “norm” but I really love it that way. The norm is boring! Even when people judge me it doesn’t affect me. I am sure of what I have experienced and everyone else is just a few steps behind.
5) When you tap into the energy of Area 51, what do you feel?
I have astral traveled to Area 51 and there is some dark nefarious energy happening there. There are quite a few alien species working for the government at this time. Most of them are malevolent. The species working with the people on this planet are benevolent and really trying to help shift the consciousness.
6) Is there a specific area in the world a lot of aliens reside?
Inner Earth has a lot of inter-dimensional beings! I haven’t visted there too much, I just haven’t really been called to. There are a lot of alien bases set up all over the world. There are both high vibrational and low vibrational beings here at this time.
7) Can you give us a tip you use to manifest something fast?
Manifestation is not about wanting the “thing” itself, its about the intention behind it. Sure you want a million dollars but WHY do you want it? Maybe its because you feel you aren’t good enough without that money or maybe it’s an over-compensation in another way. We need to be aware of what we are asking for, why we are asking for it and the limiting beliefs behind that want. The fastest way to manifest is to be aware of your thoughts, making sure they are not in a low vibration. Most of the time we walk around with the mentality of lack when in actuality we have attained and manifested so much. Sometimes looking back on what we created is more important than looking forward on what we currently don’t have.
8) Do you have a favorite crystal you use and why?
I actually don’t have a favorite crystal. I just use my intuition when it comes to diet, crystals, essential oils and even working out. I try and listen to my body to see what it needs and make sure I am not attaching myself to one thing or one routine. I enjoy structure but understand the detriment when attachment comes into play. I always really enjoy rose quartz, clear quartz, moldavite and shungite.
9) Are you able to instantly tell when you look at someone if they have abilities?
I truly believe everyone on this planet has special abilities. There is an infinite range of spiritual/ metaphysical abilities and there is simultaneously an infinite spectrum of those abilities. I believe everyone is on the spectrum for psychic, healing and empathy abilities. I truly understand that humans are simply hybrids of inter-dimensional beings. We all have other-dimensional DNA just waiting to be activated.
