The Buffet of Psychicness: Medical Intuition, Energy Healing and Life After Death with Julie Ryan
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if the intuitive impressions we sometimes dismiss as “just my imagination” are worth paying closer attention to?
In this episode of Connecting to Spirit, I sit down with Julie Ryan — serial entrepreneur, inventor, psychic medium and medical intuitive — for a fascinating conversation about intuition, energy healing, Spirit and what she believes happens as we transition from this life into the next.
Julie spent decades in the business world, inventing and manufacturing surgical devices sold internationally, before developing what she describes as the ability to intuitively scan the body and facilitate energetic healing remotely. Today, she calls her collection of intuitive abilities her “Buffet of Psychicness™” — spanning mediumship, medical intuition, animal communication and more.
We explore the growing presence of energy healing in mainstream healthcare, including Julie's account of hospitals now employing paid energy healing departments, and what she believes this says about our evolving understanding of the field.
Julie also shares why she sees imagination as an important part of receiving intuitive information, how she approaches healing imagery, and why the language we use around illness matters to her — including her perspective on saying “cancer-free” rather than “in remission”.
And then the conversation takes an extraordinary turn.
Julie recounts an experience during a healing session in which she says Pope Clement VI appeared to her. She shares the remarkable historical details she discovered about him afterwards and how that experience became connected to her work exploring what happens during the dying process.
In this episode, you'll discover:
- Julie's account of hospitals now bringing energy healers into oncology and radiology teams, and what she believes this says about the changing place of energy healing
- How Julie describes intuitively scanning the body and facilitating energetic healing
- Why imagination may play an important role in developing and trusting your intuition
- Julie’s perspective on the language we use around illness and healing
- Her simple “Is it in my best interest to…” practice for seeking intuitive guidance around decisions
- The extraordinary story of Julie’s experience with Pope Clement VI — and what she discovered about him afterwards
- Why Julie believes nobody heals another person, but that we can all be part of the healing equation
- How she approaches Spirit without putting mediumship, healing and intuition into separate “lanes”

A memorable thought from Julie
“Nobody ever heals anybody else. If you have a big cut on your leg and you go to the hospital, they're gonna stitch it up, but that doctor doesn't make your skin grow back. You make your own skin grow back. We're just all part of the healing equation.”

Welcome and Guest Intro
Speaker ViewWelcome to Connecting to Spirit. I'm your host, Lisa Brandis, and today, I have a very special guest- All the way from the USA, Julie Ryan, who is a psychic medium, a medical intuitive, and she can sense what medical conditions or illnesses a person has, and facilitates the most incredible energetic transmissions and healings. She can also communicate with spirits both alive and those that have transitioned. So without any further ado, Julie, thank you so much for agreeing to come on my podcast. Welcome. Thank you so much, Lisa. We've been going back and forth, and our teams have, and we were laughing before we started recording. I said, "I feel like I know you," and you said the same thing. "I've seen your name so much." So it's wonderful that the day has finally arrived. It's so exciting, and, you know, we were just talking about how nice it is to be able to connect, since things have changed after the pandemic, to be able to now have all the technology that just allows us to connect in real time and be able to share a beautiful message with both of our audiences. So
Julie's Origin Story
Speaker ViewJulie, tell us a little bit about your beginnings in terms of your spiritual development and, how you got to the place that you're at now and what it is that you're doing with your work. Okay. Well, I'm an inventor of surgical devices sold throughout the world and one of those crazy serial entrepreneurs. I've founded nine companies in five industries, and I am a business woman who learned how to do woo-woo, and as you mentioned, I'm a buffet of psychicness. And I laugh and I think, I'm not a psychic who had dead people chasing her since childhood, or if I did, I didn't know anything about that, let alone what I would have done with that information. And I learned how to do all this, and now I teach people all over the world how to do it as well. Yeah, it's so amazing, isn't it? I hear a lot of people in the spiritual world talk about people that were born with these gifts, and I see it differently, and maybe you do as well. I kind of see that maybe they weren't having their gifts suppressed by people around them, or they weren't brought up...
Faith, Prayer, and Spirit
Speaker ViewI know you're Catholic, is that right? So how, how do you, how do you merge the two, Julie? I know I'm going straight into it. Well, yeah. Well, it people have the misunderstanding that Catholics are not supposed to talk to spirit or talk to dead people or whatever. Well, what do you think prayer is? What, what a prayer is? Prayer is- Prayer is we're talking to angels, pr- I mean, for heaven sakes, it's all throughout the Bible. And interestingly enough too, Lisa, in 2016, the late Pope Francis- issued a papal bull, it's kind of like a newsletter, to all of his pastors around the world, and he said he wanted them to welcome psychics and healers because they are doing the work of the Holy Spirit. Wow. Wow. That's- Most people are unaware of that pretty good. Yeah. Yeah. And I mean, that's the point of us being able to transmit these messages as well and, and let people know. Exactly. Yeah. And so- My daughter's actually quite religious, and as a spiritual teacher, I kind of have, an open mind and have learnt through Reiki. But I think ultimately we're all, connecting to the same one source, just we have different pathways to that unity consciousness. So I kind of think we honor all different ways that people connect to the faith and, as we mature and as we change, we have to discern for ourselves what resonates as truth, right? And I'm always seeking that truth and what, what we can let go. It's- Yeah it's throughout every great culture. It's throughout every great religion.
Energy Healing in Hospitals
Speaker ViewIt's in our Western medical model. Energy healing is, you think about what's the original energy healing in allopathic medicine, radiology. They're using radiation, and they're using sound waves, and they're using magnetics to come up with pictures and images outside of the body of stuff inside the body. Mm. So all radiologists are doing energy medicine, and here in America, there are more than 800 hospitals now that have departments of energy healers. Really? In the, in the hospital, and they're working with the doctors and the other medical providers, more than 800 now And that list is growing all the time oh my gosh, that is so great. And you know, and I think traditionally over here in Australia, a lot of the healers have been only in a volunteer capacity, which I think is limiting because when we don't find a way to be, reimbursed for the time that we dedicate to the work we're doing, it's hard to be available, right? So, are they paid or, or, or are they supported in some way to be able to do that work? They're paid. Oh, that's brilliant. They're paid through their departments- Oh, that's- and hospitals like music to my ears. Well, and more and more American hospitals in their oncology departments have acupuncture departments- Mm-hmm because once somebody has a chemo treatment, they'll immediately go get acupuncture and it, they, they've found that it really reduces the symptoms- Oh my gosh from chemo. Yeah, my dad's just started chemotherapy with a- acute myeloid leukemia, so and he's- I'm sorry he's really resonated. Yeah, thank you. But he's actually, he considers himself agnostic. So- Mm that's good it, it, it is, isn't it? But he still has an open mind, a beautiful heart, and he believes in the power of love and just doing the right thing and, it was one of the questions that I actually had for you. Well, tell them about the radiology department, first of all, what I mentioned. The other thing is- Mm if you think about it, Lisa, what's an EEG? They're measuring brainwaves- outside of the body And what's an EKG? They're measuring heart rhythms outside of the body. So all of that is a form of energy medicine. We're just used to it- Yeah because it's in the Western model, and there's a billing code for it, and the regular Western doctors are doing it. I had a, a doctor who, actually who's Canadian, who's a radiologist. His name's John Ryan. We laugh. We say we're probably long ago cousins from the Emerald Isle. And he's the one that pointed out the radiology department, and he said, "Really, it's the original energy medicine in the- Wow Western allopathic model." I've never heard that said before, and of course it makes total sense. And I think-
Evidence and Research
Speaker ViewYeah I actually had someone, come and have a Reiki session with me, and she said she was studying, energy medicine in, in university. But she said the problem is not that the energy healing doesn't work, it's that they don't have the right scientific tools to measure it. So they're looking at wanting evidence, but they're using a different mode that can't receive it. So it's like, it, you know, we have the anecdotal evidence. We know it works. We see it. We see people change. We know in the power of people healing their own bodies. But it's almost like... And I think quantum physics is now starting to bring in ways that we can actually quantify it and measure. Mm-hmm. Because there is that, I, I understand the need for some certainty around- energy healing, we don't really get the certainty, do we? We have to kind of just trust Actually, actually the studies have been done and they've been published here in America. The University of Texas Cancer Center, the MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas has brought in energy healers and had- them work on cells in the lab, and they can measure what their frequency is that they're sending, and they can also measure the outcome and how those cells heal, whereas the other cells that don't have energy medicine haven't. Johns Hopkins in Maryland is doing similar research, so is Mayo Clinic, UCLA. A lot of them over here are doing that research because more and more patients are going to healers, energy medicine healers, as an adjunct to their regular Western and Eastern medicine, as part of the healing equation. As a complementary. Yeah. Mm-hmm. I love that. Complementary. Absolutely. Not as an alternative, but it complements- Yeah the medicine. Yeah. Yeah, because
Mindset and Healing Language
Speaker Viewmy husband had AML as well when, 20 years ago, and had he not have had, chemotherapy, he wouldn't be here, and he's 20 years in remission. So- Mm We know it saved his life, as well as we worked with energy healing, 'cause, you know, we worked with Reiki and the power of the mind, visualizing his body getting well. We would ask questions of the pharmacy, like, "What's this medicine do?" And then we'd put it into like a funny caricature, and we'd imagine it going in and just growing a fertilizer in his body and healing it. And he saw chemotherapy as medicine. He didn't see it as a toxic, chemical. He saw it as medicine. And that, that powerful change in the way you, y- you know, you communicate to the body, I think, has helped his body to not have, very many, side effects when he went through his treatment. And he never battled cancer. He talks about he accepted and went with the flow of what was happening and, really just broke it down to day by day. And his, his... it really changed his life, changed everything that he was doing, made big decisions, which I think is what happens when we get into a healing crisis. May I make a suggestion for him to, to consider? Mm. Instead of saying he's been in remission for 20 years, say he's been cancer-free for 20 years. Yeah, that's- Because remission is, "Oh, God, it may come back." Yeah. If you or I had the same test, they would tell us we're cancer-free. Yeah. Just since he's had it, they would say, "Well, you've been in remission for 20 years." So for my clients, what I suggest is you change the verbiage because it goes along with what you were just talking about. The brain hears, "I'm cancer-free." Not that- Yeah I'm in remission and, "Oh my God, I gotta go get scanned every six months to see if it's coming back," and there's that fear. Mm. Which the fear causes the stress hormones to be released, which causes inflammation. Oh. So cancer-free is a really good way to, to talk about it and think about it. Oh, yeah. Thank you for that. That was my slip of the tongue because he has actually been given a letter of cure, so they've said that he's actually- Perfect cured. Perfect. It does make a big difference, doesn't it? The power of our words. So thank you for that. Yeah. So tell me a little bit more about your work and, and I know that when you were doing your energy healing and how you transmit it, is there, yeah, anything you'd love to share about- Sure how that works? Yeah. Sure. The buffet
Buffet of Psychicness
Speaker Viewof psychicness came about because I was interested in energy healing, and I had never heard the term medical intuitive before. I thought, "Well, what the heck is that?" Mm-hmm. And I'd been in the hospital supply industry at that point for quite a while designing, manufacturing, selling, marketing, all of that, surgical devices. So I was helping people heal, but having them go through their surgeon or their physicians or their medical providers, and it piqued my curiosity when I heard medical intuitive. And so I started studying with a woman who was a medical intuitive and an energy healer, and what I realized, Lisa, was once we connect with spirit, we can do it all. Yeah. We can talk to your dead grandma. I can scan your cat. We can scan you. We can do past lives. We can talk to your angels, your spirit guides, do remote viewing, whatever. Mm. That's what I call the buffet of psychicness, and in this industry, Wu means d- means source in Daoism, and I think the word woo woo is fun, and we're supposed- Mm This is supposed to be- I do too joyful for us. And what I find is that once we connect into spirit, we can do it all, and the fact that we... You got the healers and the psychics and the mediums and the pet psychics and the past life people and the Akashic records people and, uh, why? Once you connect with spirit, you can do it all. So I am like a human MRI. When I get somebody on my radar, it's as if I'm looking at an X-ray or a CT scanner, an MRI. I can see inside their body in my mind's eye, with their permission of course. I don't ever scan anybody without their permission. And I can see broken bones, torn ligaments, viral infections, bacterial infections, cancer, metastasized cancer, whatever. And then immediately after something's identified, there will be an energetic healing that will immediately begin and that can take the form of something getting added, something getting removed. I watch procedures all the time in my mind's eye that emulate what I saw in surgery for all those decades, developing new products, testing prototypes, being with my reps while they were training the surgeons, things like that. Sometimes I see healings that utilize methodologies and devices that haven't been invented yet. And regardless of what I'm- Wow, off-world beings and those- See, I- Yeah, I've heard about a lot of technology coming through energetically. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Yeah, that's great. Well, and I, I had no idea about woo-woo when I invented my surgical devices. I learned it probably 10 years after my first device hit the market. Wow. So maybe, maybe not quite- It's almost like you had a perfect training ground for the work that you're doing. Exactly. Right. I find that a lot- Yes with clients when I, when I work with them. They might be beginning within the modality, but it's like you bring your whole life experience to what it is you do and how you help people. It's all part of that, yeah, how we communicate. Yeah. Oh, it's so exciting. So,
Imagination Beats Doubt
Speaker Viewum, and so the power of the imagination, I would, I would guess plays a lot in that you're very visual in what you're seeing and working with that. And, one of the things I come across when I'm teaching students how to connect and trust that intuition is that there's a self-doubt that comes up quite often. We know that the mind has that, inner critic that is always kind of coming up and, and sometimes when the messages come easily, because I think you and I have the same belief in that regard, we're born with an ability to connect and to commune with spirit. But when it becomes easy, it's like it's e- it's easy also to dismiss it or just to think it's, "Oh, it's just my thoughts," or, "It's just my imagination." How, how do you get around it all? How do you teach your students to kind of work with that part of the mind that, the human aspect gets in the way and creates doubt Spirit uses our imagination in the healings, in the work that we do. Spirit working through me and with me, spirit working through you and with you to help the person heal themselves. So imagination is key. If people say, "Well, how do I know it's real versus it's my imagination?" It's all the same thing. What's the difference? Yeah. Spirit's using your imagination. And what I have come to realize over the years is Spirit will give us a visual, in my case. They'll give me a visual like, "Your left elbow looks like it has whipped cream on it." And we think, "Okay, that's weird." Yeah. But we can all envision that. They're gonna give us a description that's gonna be familiar to us from our human frame of reference. And when we picture it in our mind's eye, embedded in that image is the healing of the, the frequency of the healing. Mm. And when the person pictures it, it helps integrate that healing into their body. So on my show and with clients, you'll hear me say, "Okay. Imagine your left arm is covered in whipped cream." And, and th- like, that's kinda hard not to imagine when somebody says that. Yeah, yeah. You're, you're not gonna be thinking about blue sky. Usually you say- Right, right don't think of a pink elephant. What's the first thing that happens? Exactly. Exactly. And it, and early on, Lisa, I thought, "Oh my God, I sound like such a nut job." And what I've come to realize over all these years is it's a way that spirit is giving us the information that we need to envision or feel- Mm or sense or whatever to help integrate the healing into the body. Mm. What I have realized too is that our heads are like big satellite dishes and they receive and they transmit frequencies. Every spirit has a frequency they keep throughout all their lifetimes, and every thought has a frequency as well. And spirit communication is in numbers. It's numerical, 'cause math is a universal language. Mm. So our heads, our brains act like big decoders. That information that our satellite dish head is receiving's coming into our brain in the form of numbers. Think of computer code. Mm. You see all those numbers on all those lines- Mm of numbers? Visualizing it all now like data. Yeah. Yeah. And so our brains are basically decoding or translating that code- Mm into visuals and senses and things like that for us to describe. And it's really fascinating to me the visuals that come up, the sensations. Okay, imagine it feels like velvet. Imagine it smells like wet dog. Whatever. It's so fascinating, isn't it, that, that we- Get information. Yeah. I, I was doing the same thing, and I find spirit keeps leading me to, to the way that I do my healing kind of organically and with an element of play. And I must admit that when I would initially hear the person's problem, I would w- you know, we'd have that communication at the beginning. "What's brought you here?" Then as soon as we get them on the table to receive the Reiki, it's almost like I'm able then t- to switch gears into spirit and ask for a solution to the problem. So as I would feel, um, a heat or inflammation, I'd naturally bring through, water or, or exactly like you'd say, I'd see toothpaste that would be all white and, and gooey. But I never told anyone that. So- I know. It's embarrassing I would have an absolute blast- Mm because I would literally have someone come in with all this dark, stuck energy which I saw as... I'd, I'd get excited because now my role became, how do I play with that and transmute it? And so it was almost like with spirit's help- it would literally, I remember once seeing a whole wall sprayed with the most beautiful colors, and it was spirit being creative with how they were helping the client to release it. That's my projection over to them, and their body will receive it. But I think the healing, the power of it, if they're, if they're actually, their cells are hearing their voice, they're gonna receive the healing a lot more. And I feel like it cha- it, it has a, 'cause all healing's self-healing, right? So if they're visualizing what I'm seeing and we're doing it together, and they're able to, continue that visualization themself, the body's just gonna listen to the, to their consciousness, right? More so than what a healer can project in a temporary situation. So it's so much more empowering to verbalize it. So I think it does take a little bit of courage to be a bit silly or to just say things that we think, "Oh my God, they're gonna think I'm crazy." And yet you're a very intelligent, strong businesswoman with a great background, and I think, I do the hybrid of both as well, very logical and analytical and good with business. And I think, the two pair really well, don't they? So- Mm-hmm I love that. And you're just being yourself. It's endearing, right? When you just get to give yourself permission to play and to have fun. Absolutely. And I,
Remote Healing and Business Intuition
Speaker Viewit's rare. It's usually my husband, he's the only one who lives with me still. Our, our son is grown and, and his children are all grown, and he's the only one I might zap on in person, but everything else is remote. I laugh, I say, "I could find you if you were in a galaxy far, far away." Because it doesn't matter, we're playing in the plasma field, and distance and time are irrelevant. When I had to take my first attunements online, and 'cause I was doing all my workshops in person and then moving to that online experience, my guide just kept saying, "Love knows no bounds. Love knows no bounds." Good point. And so the attunement just happened beautifully and it just integrated. So I think it's, um, yeah, I, I think it's a powerful place to be able to reach people and transmit energy across time and space, and knowing that- Mm the body naturally wants to move into a healing state, doesn't it? So in your experience, what role would you say that your intuition and your connection to spirit plays in terms of how you facilitate and run your business now? And I know you teach workshops and, and have students. How does it help you with business? If I have a question on something I ask, is it in my best interest to dot, dot, dot, finish the sentence. Yeah. And when I first was being asked to teach the world what happens when somebody dies, and that's what's in my free book. We can talk about that later. Oh, tell us about that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I had a dead pope spirit come in the room. I was with my mentor. She was doing a healing on me,
Pope Clement Appears
Speaker Viewand he had his pope hat on and his shepherd's rod and the whole nine yards. And I... She could see him, too, my Susan, and I said, "Well, who are you?" And he said- "I'm Clement." And I said, "Okay, I never heard of a Pope Clement." And he laughed and he said, "I was number six." Oh, wow. And I said, "Great. How may I help you?" And I'm thinking, "Why is this guy here? Why is this spirit here?" And he said, "Well, you need to teach the world what happens when somebody dies, 'cause people are so afraid-" Of that, yeah They're gonna go burn for eternity. And he said, "You know that's nonsense." And he laughs. "And you've helped so many people when they've passed." And he said, "So you just need to, you need to get on with it and just teach everybody what happens when somebody dies." And I laughed, Lisa, and I said, "Well, thank you so much for your suggestion, but you see I'm a businesswoman." Yeah. No, I think I- "And if I did that, people will think I'm nuts." "So I'm not interested." Yeah. And he said, he laughed and he said, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Everything you've done in business has prepared you for this, so you just need to get
Black Plague Confirmation
Speaker Viewon with it." And then he left and I, about 15 minutes later I was in my car and I was getting ready to drive home, and just for kicks on my phone I looked up Pope Clement VI. Well, come to find out this guy was in office during the Black Plague- when two-thirds of Europe died, and he's best known for his prayers for the dying and his prayers for the dead. And I thought, "Okay, Ryan, you can't make that up." No, no. Especially, yeah, that's when we, the more we experience and just go with the, the connecting, the more we have those kind of, yeah, I call it hits, where we just... It's undeniable, or there's stuff that we know that we can't possibly- Right have known. And, I teach my students to go in with curiosity and play, and that sounds exactly what you did. You're like, "Oh, hello. What are you here for?" How, you know- Yeah. "I can see you-" How may I help you? here. How can I help you?" Yeah. And, and isn't it- Yeah i, the one thing that I notice that you've said when you talk about the buffet, I keep trying to pigeonhole
Healing Sessions Explained
Speaker Viewmyself into, okay, there's psychic mediumship, there's channeling, there's... whenever I say, "Okay, I'm not a medium. I don't do mediumship," I will have someone come in that, that needs to connect with a loved one and I'm just like, "Okay, I surrender. You're being a medium when you're getting those divine downloads- Yeah of what's going on with the person when you're doing a healing on them. And I always go in blind first when I'm working with a client. I don't have time to do it on my show, 'cause we're trying to get as many people on as we can in an hour from our YouTube live stream, and also from the- The call in on the Zoom side of the equation. And I- Oh I, if I have a client for an hour, or I have five graduates that work with me. Mm. And they are all wonderful. Mm. And we will go in blind first, and I do that, Lisa, because I wanna see where the energy's gonna go. 'Cause it's always gonna go to the most needed area first, even if it's asymptomatic. Mm. And perhaps- Mm we're heading off a problem at the pass. Yeah. And so I'll do that, and then I'll have a list of what they've got going on, so something will be identified, they'll be healing. Something else will be identified, they'll be healing, and I'll go down their list just from a time management standpoint. Mm. And we'll- Mm talk about, we can talk to deceased loved ones, we can talk about their pets, we can do past lives, we can do whatever they wanna do in addition to the healing because we'll have an hour together, and we cram a lot together in that hour. Incredible what you can do when you work with spirit, isn't it? Kind of fast tracks. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. It leads me to another question that I just had come up and it's gone out of my head. Don't you love that? Oh. Well, back to the buffet of psychicness. Yeah, yeah. You'd asked me about that. I think I was told early
No Lanes In Spirit Work
Speaker Viewon, "Well, you gotta choose a lane. Do you wanna be a medium or a psychic?" Back to what you were just saying a couple minutes ago. And I said, "Why?" Mm. And I heard, "Well, because that's just the way it is." Well, I'm an entrepreneur. Yeah. Same. If, if you tell me I gotta do something a certain way, I'm gonna say- I'm like, gonna go the opposite "Why?" Yeah, I do the same with intuitive Reiki. It's like, why can't it be spirit communication with healing? Why is Reiki just passive and not talking through and communicating and connecting? So yeah, I developed a different style because... And, and I've had people say Reiki's passive. I'm like, "Says who? It's not passive in my rooms, you know? It's not passive in my sessions." Right. Um. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. So as an entrepreneur, I'm just naturally- gonna do what makes the most sense and what works the best, what's the most efficient, what's gonna- Mm give us the best outcome. I don't care what the rules are. I don't care what somebody's done ahead of me. I'm gonna do it my own way. Yeah. And that's what I teach in my classes is, here's how I do it, we're gonna figure out what's the best way for it to come in for you. Because each one of us has our own personal goulash, if you will, of the classes we've taken, our life experiences, things like that. And then they add to it, not so much the techniques, but the frequency- Mm that's being transmitted from me to my students, whether it be online or whether it be in person. My next in person class is in Atlanta, Georgia in the fall, in October, the weekend before Halloween. I've had students come in from Australia into the Atlanta airport. It's the busiest airport in the world. Wow. A- anybody can get there. But, but it's not so much about the techniques- Mm it's more about the transfer of energy at a super high vibe- Mm where I play to my students. Mm-hmm. And then we help them figure out what's the most efficient, easiest way for them to work with spirit, because everybody's different- to your point a couple of minutes ago. Yeah, yeah. But it's perfect. And it's powerful, isn't it, to own that- It's perfect. Yeah unique frequency. But also not to limit ourselves as to what we can... we can have our ideas as to what we want to create and achieve, but then, saying to spirit, "This or something better," so we're open to infinite possibility as to how we can work. I kind of sit in a, in a frequency where there's a part of me that just wants to check in and fit in, and a part of me that just is liberated and just wants to be, a bit of a rebel, and break some of those, boundaries- that keep us limited, right? I think the key too, Lisa, is go where you're led, and if something feels
Trust Love Not Fear
Speaker Viewloving and kind and healing, go for it. If something feels- Negative, that's your fear coming into play, and spirit's not gonna work through you anyways. So you can't do any harm because spirit's pure love. Yeah. And so spirit's only gonna transmit positive energy. People are worried about that they're gonna do some kind of harm or damage to their clients. I'll say it's not possible- 'cause all spirit's pure love. Spirit's not gonna do something that's gonna be detrimental to a person. It's not gonna happen. So just give up that worry. It's just- Yeah a total waste of time. Yeah. Couldn't agree more with you, Julie. Absolutely. I'd love to give the listeners a practical experience of, how you might connect in and check
Best Interest Questions
Speaker Viewin. Like, do you do a body check when you wanna ask spirit, "Is this the right path?" You said before that you check in all the time when you're making business decisions or life decisions. Is there a particular way that you do that? Or could you describe the process? An example of what you might do. I don't even call in any spirit in particular. It's just a god, the universe, the whole nine yards, my spirit guides, my angels, all of them, my deceased loved ones. And I'll, I'll normally preface it with, "Is it in my best interest to..." Dot, dot, dot, fill in the blank. Is it in my best interest... We're releasing a Ask Julie Ryan phone app here soon. Is it in my best interest to develop and, and, release an Ask Julie Ryan phone app to help serve people better? That was early on. Yes, I was being led. I'll, I'll have ideas come into my head, and then I'll say, "Is it in my best interest to..." Or, is it in my best interest to take the highway or the surface streets to get to this place? Certainly we have GPS, but sometimes GPS is wrong. Oh, yeah. So like- It can send you up a wild goose chase. That's right. Sometimes. Yeah. And so I'll ask that, is it in my best interest to go visit... I'm gonna go see one of my best girlfriends this weekend on the other side of the country because her mother is 95 years old, and I go see the mother and my fr- Mm I see my friend more than that, but I, I go see her mom at least once a year. And, and I'm led to do that. So is it in my best interest to go visit them? We've been friends since we were 10. And my friend's mom is the last one of all of the friend group's moms. Mm. And she was my role model for motherhood. So I- it's just a matter of, is it in my best interest to... Because future events have a bazillion variables that can affect an outcome, and I've found over the years by prefacing a question when I'm looking for guidance with, "Is it in my best interest to..." It takes into account all of those potential variables, which are vast. Because free will comes into play. Yeah. And we think things are set in stone. No, they're not. A very basic script is set of what we wanna explore and experience, but there are a bazillion ways to explore and experience it, and they're ever-changing. And choice. Yeah As well as every other- Person or a situation with whom we're interacting is changing as well. Mm. And so when somebody says, "Well, can you tell me is this gonna happen?" And I'll say, "Well, I can tell you what I'm getting at this moment in time, with the caveat of it's a future event, and future events are fluid. It may be different in an hour, it may be different next week, next month, next year. All I can give you is what I'm getting as an answer right now." Yeah. It's so, it's so amazing, and I had these questions prepared, and I just quickly read over one of them, and you've already answered it. And- Oh. you know how I said I forgot the question, or what, that popped into my head that I wanted to ask? I remembered it now. So, and I've seen this happen with you on your YouTube channel, where you do, like, fast readings for people, healings
Collective Healing Effect
Speaker Viewand readings, and, um, one of the things you say is that quite often, by just watching the YouTube channel, whatever issue is happening within someone, I heard, like, a liver cleanse one, and I'm just like, ooh, I took it into my body and I recognized that I could utilize that as well, 'cause I have fatty liver. So it was just, And the same thing happens in my channeling events, where people will get the answer that they're thinking of before, and it's like this collective energy, and I love the way spirit works like that. Well, when I'm doing a healing on somebody out of the callers who've called in, and again, they can ask about a multitude of things, it's not just healing. A lot of healing- Mm because people have been to multiple doctors, gotten multiple diagnoses, perhaps multiple treatment recommendations, and they still have the same symptoms. Yeah. And so kind of as a last ditch effort, they're calling in to the show- and they're saying, "Hey, can you scan me and see what the heck is going on?" Yeah. And I, I will always say to anybody that's joining us on the live stream or somebody that's listening to the, the podcast on any of the podcast networks or on YouTube at a later date, I want you to envision what I'm describing too as this healing's happening for Lisa, because it's similar to the power of prayer. We're all sending energy to Lisa- Mm to help her heal. And there's lots of research. I've had Lynne McTaggart on the show a couple of times. Oh, I love Lynne. I followed her 20 years ago when I was doing the research I loved that interview, highly recommend. We'll drop the link to it below as well. Um- Yeah yeah, her body of work's- The power- amazing. Yeah. The power of eight group. She has eight different people in a group, and they'll focus on making seeds grow faster on the other side of the world, and the scientists will notice- Mm that the seeds grow faster when they're focused on it. Yeah. So I do that, and then I've lost count of how many people have written emails or if they call in, they'll tell me that, "I was listening to your show, and y- you mentioned liver cleanse," excuse me, "and you did a liver healing on somebody, and I was having the same problems, and then the next morning I woke up and I didn't have them anymore." So by listening and envisioning the healing, that healing frequency went into their body as well. As the person with whom I was talking. And the other thing that I like to mention a lot, Lisa, is it doesn't matter if you're listening to this in real time or you're listening to it five years from now, 'cause time doesn't exist in the spirit world. Time's a human creation. And- Find it when you need it, don't you? Doesn't matter At the perfect time. Mm. Yeah. Doesn't matter. Mm. Well, s- I just wanna say thank you from the world for the incredible work that you're doing, and
Healing Is Self Healing
Speaker ViewI'm so glad that we've had a chance to have a conversation here because the more people that can find you and your work, the better the world will be. And I think the world really does need more light workers standing up and just helping. We're recalibrating light on the planet, you know, and we're doing it collectively. So, any inspiration that I've certainly gotten from you will impact the people that I help and it, you know, kind of just... I do see this just beautiful ripple effect of more happy humans loving each other, connecting, and healing. And can there be anything better than that? So thank you, Julie. You're amazing. Well, it's my, my honor and my pleasure. And the bottom line with all of this is the work that you do, the work that I do, the work that a medical provider does, or work that, acupuncturist or homeopath or herbalist, we're all part of the healing equation in helping the person heal themselves. Yes. 'Cause nobody ever heals anybody else. Yeah. If you have a big cut on your leg and you go to the hospital, they're gonna stitch it up, but that doctor doesn't make your skin grow back. You make your own skin grow back. Mm-hmm. And that's what we do. We're just all part of the healing equation. Yeah. I love that. You mentioned that there was a free gift for- Free book. Yeah. Yes. Angelic Attendants. I feel like a game
Free Book And Resources
Speaker Viewshow hostess- Mm holding it up. Angelic Attendants: What Really Happens As We Transition From This Life into the Next is my first book, and it talks about how, Lisa, how we're all surrounded by angels and the spirits of deceased loved ones and pets as we're transitioning, and it has illustrations in it that show how the angels and the loved ones are positioned. Anybody that wants a free copy, if you've ever lost a loved one, if you ever think you will, duh, we all will. Mm. If you ever think you're gonna be there in the, in, at one point in your life, which we all will as well- Mm nobody escapes it, you wanna read this because this is what Pope Clement came in and said, "You gotta teach the world what's happening," 'cause people are so afraid, he said. Yeah. It's been bastardized over the millennia. Yes, absolutely. And it's nonsense. It's glorious. And it's beautiful. Beautiful. We need to look at it and celebrate it like we do birth, right? It's a, it's a beautiful transition. I have read the book. I actually read it on the plane, and I- Oh couldn't put it down, so, thank you, and yeah, highly recommend you grab a copy of that book. And what a generous offer to give it away for free. Anybody that wants a free copy, just go to askjulieryan.com. Mm. And on the homepage you'll see a button, you know, send me a free book, and we have digital and audiobook for free, and we have it in Spanish as well- Mm, mm as English, and we're putting more languages, getting more languages translated as well. You can buy the paperback on Amazon. But the digital and the audiobook download. And then share it with your family and friends- Mm because everybody who has had a loss- Relates to this and if you read just the Amazon reviews, there are more than 600 now, Lisa. Amazing. And they say things like, "Oh my gosh, I wish I would've known this before my grandmother died. Oh my gosh, this has been so helpful in helping my husband get through the last days of his life, and it brings me so much peace and it explains so much." And the interesting thing about this is there's university-based research that shows that 90% of people at the end of their lives see the spirits of deceased loved ones and pets. 90%. Yeah. So- It doesn't surprise me at all. Yeah. I love it when science catches up with woo woo- Yeah. 'cause we're looking- I know a little longer It's always that, "Oh, thank goodness." Oh. Finally. Exactly. Yeah. Ah, beautiful. And your YouTube channel, what's the YouTube address? Everything's, everything's Ask Julie Ryan. Askjulieryan.com,
