I’m often reminded that no matter how developed our intellectual, emotional, or spiritual muscles may be, there is always more to learn, more muscle to build and keep strong. And living in a city where crowded transit services are the norm provides ample opportunity for this! For those who aren’t very familiar with Toronto: UNESCO […]
It was the summer of 2003. It was dark because it was late night. But it was also dark because I was hitting rock bottom. Not from any substance abuse issues. Just because it felt like my life was falling apart and I had zero support systems. I hadn’t seen it coming. But the loss

When I was recently speaking with a small group of people about mediumship, post-physical people, and answering some questions, one person asked, “What if someone doesn’t believe in all this stuff?
