That's a question I kept coming back to during my conversation with David Tran, a former corporate executive who spent 25 years working in digital marketing and data analytics before a profound shift in his life led him into the world of consciousness and psi.

David is a back-to-back Psi Games precognition competitor, taking first place in 2025 and second place in 2026. We talk about what precognition actually looks like in competition, what happened when his brainwaves appeared almost completely flat on the EEG monitor, why he thinks we're entering a renaissance of human abilities, and what happened when he finally decided to leave his corporate career and follow his calling.

We also talk about something much bigger: why we have such a hard time with uncertainty, how our brains constantly predict reality, why different consciousness communities sometimes divide themselves into tribes, and what might happen if we stopped trying to decide which experiences are “real” long enough to actually explore them.

What You'll Hear

• What it was like for David to walk into the Psi Games with virtually no training in the consciousness space and leave as a precognition winner
• Why David immediately dropped into meditation mode during his competition and what happened with his EEG readings
• The surprisingly simple way David explains precognition using the everyday gut feelings we've all experienced
• Why David believes the future of psi may be much more ordinary than people expect
• What happens when you finally stop outsourcing your own knowing and have the courage to follow the thing that won't leave you alone

I put in my AirPods, laid down in bed, and tried it. At some point, I felt like I was floating in space.

But S's experience went much further.

After an incredibly difficult period caring for her dying mother while also taking over and trying to sell her family's 100-year-old pickle company, S began experimenting with the Gateway Tapes. There was just one problem: she couldn't visualize.

S eventually discovered she has aphantasia, so she began finding her own way into meditation using sound, touch, music, movement, and sensation.

What happened next became the inspiration for Sonic Vessel.

In this conversation, S shares the out-of-body experience she says allowed her to encounter her deceased parents, how profoundly it changed her afterward, and how she and musician Lisa Iwanycki turned that experience into an entirely different approach to meditation.

What You'll Hear

• How S discovered that other people could actually see pictures in their minds
• What happened when she stopped trying to meditate the way she thought she was supposed to
• The experience with her deceased parents that changed everything
• Why sound and sensation became central to the creation of Sonic Vessel
• What happened when I tried S's meditation for myself

• What it was like meeting Chris Bledsoe after hearing his story the night before
• The ideas Nick Cook shared about UFOs, psi, consciousness and our understanding of reality

And that was only part of the day.

In part one of my PSI Games experience, I am taking you inside a weekend that left me inspired, overwhelmed, and still unpacking some of what I witnessed.

And then there was the dinner I almost skipped.

And honestly? That one stopped me in my tracks.

Get this: Kiersten was a TV marketing exec at A&E and the History Channel who taught herself carpentry, built a furniture company in her garage, and won Shark Tank. And while all of that was happening on the outside, she was quietly healing from childhood sexual abuse and trying to make sense of mediumship abilities she never asked for.

I didn't expect to relate to her the way I did. But I did.

The children who came to her in spirit didn't just need her help — they showed up to help her too, picking her up through the hardest stretch of her life and becoming this little team of light she now talks about like her own kids.

But here's where things got REALLY interesting.

Kiersten now co-runs a nonprofit that investigates cold cases for crime victims' families — completely free of charge — working alongside a retired NYPD detective and channeling information that's helped solve cases and even kept him out of danger. Her memoir, Little Voices, is being adapted for a TV series.

A gentle heads-up before you press play: we talk openly about childhood sexual abuse and trauma. Nothing is graphic, but it may not be suitable for all listeners. Please take care of yourself and listen at your own pace.

What You'll Learn:

• What it was like to first sense, smell, and hear spirit coming through
• How Kiersten learned to validate her abilities after years as a skeptic
• Why childhood sexual abuse survivors often unknowingly replicate abuse later in life
• How emotional blocks can interfere with our intuition
• Why missing and murdered indigenous women receive so little attention and resources
• Why she believes intuition is something we all have access to

And honestly? The older I get, the more I realize how true that actually is.

Get this: A while back, psychic medium Keira Newton told me that hypnosis and mediumship go hand in hand. At the time, I remember thinking… wait. How?

I didn’t get it. Yet.

A few months later, I was introduced to the book Many Lives, Many Masters by a woman named Robyn, who I had met through another psychic medium Renea Adell. Robyn actually joined me for a conversation about signs, grief, and the experiences surrounding the passing of her daughter.

Anyway, as I started reading the book, I began connecting the dots.

But here’s where things got REALLY interesting.

After going through my own Neuro-Linguistic Programming and Quantum Time Technique certification training, I realized how much stronger my intuition had become.

And I don’t mean in some vague, “I’m more spiritual now” kind of way 🙃

I mean some of the wildest synchronicities and intuitive hits I’ve ever experienced kinda way, and that’s when it REALLY clicked!

In this episode, I’m sharing the chain of events that helped me understand how emotional healing, subconscious work, hypnosis, intuition, and even mediumship is more interconnected than you may realize.

We also talk about:

• why emotional blocks can disconnect us from intuition
• how open-mindedness changes what we’re receptive to
• the psychiatrist whose experiences challenged everything he learned in medical school
• and why curiosity may matter more than certainty

And honestly… I think a lot more people are waking up to this stuff than we realize.

What You’ll Learn:

• What psychic medium Keira Newton told me about hypnosis and mediumship
• How Many Lives, Many Masters shifted my perspective
• Why Dr. Brian Weiss’s story challenged conventional thinking
• What happened after my NLP/QTT certification training
• How emotional healing can heighten intuition
• Why synchronicities increased after doing subconscious work
• The connection between overwhelm, anxiety, and intuitive disconnection
• Why being around open-minded people matters
• How future-self hypnosis can help reconnect you to yourself
• Why I believe intuition is something we all have access to

Wait. So, your body can heal when your emotions do?! So… I have to tell you about something that honestly still feels a little WTF to me.

You may already know, but I’ve been deep in into neuro-linguistic programming + quantum time technique certification lately, and what’s been happening… is kind of blowing my mind.

Like—emotional stuff I thought would take years to unpack? Gone.
Physical symptoms? Also… gone???

I know how that sounds. Trust me, I KNOW.

If I hadn’t experienced this firsthand—and watched it happen for someone I was literally practicing with—I’d probably be side-eyeing this whole thing too.

But here we are.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what I’ve been learning, what’s shifted for me (mentally, emotionally, physically), and why I feel more grounded right now… in the middle of complete life chaos… than I maybe ever have.

And also—we need to talk about the synchronicities lately because WHAT IS HAPPENING.

What you’ll learn:

• How releasing guilt and shame can create immediate emotional (and physical) shifts
• Why your nervous system might be the real thing running the show
• The surprising connection between stress, your body, and chronic pain
• How I went from rage-level 10 to… absolutely nothing (like, overnight)
• Why my relationships—especially my marriage—have shifted without my husband doing anything differently
• The ripple effect this work creates (even if you’re the only one doing it)
• The wild synchronicities that started happening when I got more regulated
• What it actually feels like to be grounded during massive life change
• Why clarity + emotional release = becoming a magnet for what you want

I spent six days immersed in a certification training for Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Quantum Time Techniques ™️— and honestly, I’m still processing everything that happened in that room and what's continuing to unfold,

Originally, I thought I’d record a podcast episode with my “top five takeaways.”

But the truth? There was way too much. Breakthroughs, emotional releases, wild realizations… it was a lot.

So instead, I zoomed out and asked myself one simple question:

What moment completely blew my mind?

And the answer came pretty quickly.

In this episode, I’m sharing the story of how I walked into a simple exercise carrying Khaleesi-level rage over a situation and walked out of that same exercise feeling almost completely neutral.

Like… the emotional charge was just gone.

And here’s the crazy part: later that same night, my son unknowingly brought up the exact situation that had triggered that rage in the first place!

And I didn’t feel angry.
I didn’t feel defensive.
I didn’t even feel irritated.

I just… saw the situation clearly.

Objectively.

And honestly? A little humorously.

Which made me realize something pretty big:
How much of our energy gets tied up in emotions we never meant to carry in the first place.

In this episode, I’m sharing the story behind that moment, what happened in that exercise, and why experiences like this are exactly why I’m so excited to start offering live NLP experiences and one-on-one coaching soon.

Because when you feel what it’s like to release something heavy that’s been sitting in your nervous system…

…it’s kind of magical.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

• Why unresolved emotions can stay triggered long after a situation is over
• The moment I realized I was carrying Khaleesi-level rage toward someone
• The NLP exercise that dramatically shifted my emotional response
• What happened later that night that proved the shift was real
• Why emotional triggers often reveal deeper patterns we need to clear
• How releasing anger can free up an incredible amount of mental energy
• Why learning tools like NLP can help you stop ruminating and start moving forward

That was me.
Scrolling Facebook.
Completely minding my business.

And then I saw an article titled “The Woman Who Painted the Future.”

I clicked.

And that tiny, ordinary click set off a chain of events that eventually led to me planning a retreat in Paris.

Yes. Paris. 🇫🇷

What I didn’t share in the last episode where I mention it, and all the other things I have planned is that this wasn’t some long-term master plan. It wasn’t something I’d been mapping out for years. And up until December 28th… it wasn’t even an idea.

But when I started reading about Hilma af Klint — a deeply spiritual artist who was channeling her paintings decades before the world was ready for them — something in me lit up.

Her work.
Her courage.
The fact that she hid it because she believed the world wouldn’t understand.

And then not long after, I had a reading with Kiera Newton. A message came through about my work being spiritual… that I decoded to mean that I was to lean into my creativity instead of trying to force things that we not aligning.

And suddenly everything started connecting.

This episode is the full story of how curiosity turned into clarity — and how following joy led to something much bigger than I expected.

It’s about:

• Trusting the quiet nudges
• Letting creativity lead
• And being open to where inspiration actually wants to take you

Because sometimes the most aligned moves in your life don’t start with strategy.

They start with interest, joy curiosity, and awareness.

What You’ll Learn:

• Who Hilma af Klint was and why her story resonated so deeply
• How creativity and spirituality are intertwined
• The message from my reading that shifted my perspective
• Why following curiosity can create unexpected momentum
• How synchronicity builds when you’re paying attention
• Why joy might be the most underutilized compass we have

On New Year’s Day, I woke up, did my meditation, grabbed my coffee, and casually enrolled in a business coaching program with Elizabeth Henson.

No hesitation.
No overthinking.
No spiraling (which… growth).

I knew she was the one to help me turn the million ideas living in my head into something real. What I did not realize was that she was also about to push me so far outside my comfort zone that I’d end up recording a podcast episode sharing my biggest, boldest, most “are we really saying this out loud?” dreams.

And yet… here we are.

So consider this episode a behind-the-scenes look at where Alchemy with Nancy is headed next — and why I finally decided to stop keeping these visions to myself.

We’re talking:

• Live, local experiential events
• A quarterly book club
• Retreats (including PARIS 😳)
• And a very small, very intentional beta container I’ve been quietly dreaming up

This episode is me saying the quiet part out loud — because apparently that’s how things start moving.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• Why I invested in business coaching — and what it immediately stirred up
• The real reason great coaches are supposed to make you uncomfortable
• How Alchemy with Nancy is expanding beyond the podcast
• Details on the very first Alchemy book club
• Why Guided by Laura Lynne Jackson felt like the perfect place to start
• What an “illuminated life” actually means (in real, grounded terms)
• Why I’m organizing a retreat to Paris around the work of Hilma af Klint
• How mediumship, creativity, and art are more connected than we’ve been taught
• Why I enrolled in a Neuro-Linguistics Practitioner certification with Megan Blacksmith
• What stepping into your future self actually does to your nervous system
• And why none of this works without guides, mentors, and support

In this episode, I’m sitting down with Summer Paradiso — a psychic medium, intuition coach, Reiki master, artist, yoga teacher, and founder of Soul & Spirit — and honestly? Her story is one of those “you can’t make this shit up”journeys.

Summer didn’t grow up seeing dead people or hearing voices in the grocery store. Her path unfolded slowly — through yoga, art, meditation, motherhood, and a series of moments that only made sense in hindsight. Until one night in May 2024, when everything clicked… fast.

We talk about the moment she realized she was channeling information she couldn’t possibly know, what happened next (including a powerful experience painting a child in spirit), and how she learned to work with mediumship in a grounded, ethical, consent-based way.

We also dive deep into her Soul & Spirit method — a blend of movement, meditation, and creative expression designed to help women clear emotional and energetic blocks stored in the body (because thinking your way out of trauma… doesn’t actually work).

If you’ve ever wondered:

• Why your intuition feels muted
• Why you feel “stuck” even though you’re doing all the right things
• Or why your nervous system feels like it’s permanently set to fight-or-flight

…this conversation is for you.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

• How Summer discovered her mediumship completely by accident
• Why shutting off the analytical mind is key to intuition + psychic work
• The ethics of mediumship (and why consent matters more than people realize)
• What energetic blocks actually are — and why they live in the body, not just the mind
• Why creativity is one of the most underrated healing tools we have
• The connection between trauma, chakras, and feeling safe in your body
• How clearing emotional blocks can reactivate intuition and psychic ability
• Why so many women are waking up spiritually right now (and what to do with it)

And yet—somehow—we still end up doing the same damn things.

If you’ve ever wondered why change feels so hard—even when you really want it—this conversation is for you.

In this episode, I’m sitting down with Megan Blacksmith—speaker, neuro-linguistic programming trainer, and co-founder of Zesty—to unpack why we stay stuck in patterns we swear we’re done with… and how to actually change them without forcing, white-knuckling, or pretending to feel something we don’t.

Megan blends NLP, functional medicine, and compassionate coaching—and her perspective on identity, the subconscious mind, and nervous system safety honestly felt like exactly what we all need right now.

We talk about:

• why willpower isn’t the problem
• how old identities quietly sabotage “new year, new you” plans
• and why your triggers are actually data (annoying… but useful)

This is one of those conversations that makes you pause mid-walk or mid-dishwashing like… oh. THAT explains a lot.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

• Why your brain loves autopilot—and how to gently rewire it
• The real reason habits don’t stick (hint: it’s not discipline)
• How identity keeps pulling you back into old patterns
• Why emotional triggers are clues, not character flaws
• The sneaky ways environment shapes behavior
• How to shift patterns without reliving trauma or forcing change
• Why compassion—not shame—is the fastest path to transformation

In this solo episode, I’m sharing the story of a recent reading I had with evidential psychic medium, Keira Newton — and how it delivered clarity in the most unexpected ways. Even though I regularly connect with my grandfather and receive signs on my own, something told me to book this reading. And I’m so glad I listened.

The moment the reading started, my dad came through… and what unfolded from there brought comfort, healing, and a level of validation I didn’t even realize I needed. Friends I’ve lost also stepped forward with details that left me stunned — and reminded me how supported we really are.

And then came my grandfather with memories so specific (think: ice cream, car rides, and one particular town clock) that I had to go look things up afterward… and sure enough, everything lined up. The reading ended with a message I couldn’t quite make sense of at the time — but in the days after, the signs, numbers, and synchronicities got louder and louder until it all finally clicked.

This episode is about mediumship, yes — but it’s also about creativity, intuitive nudges, and the way clarity sometimes arrives after the moment, in ways you can’t ignore. If you’ve been craving reassurance, validation, or a reminder that you’re not navigating life alone, I think this one will land for you.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• Why I booked a reading even though I already connect with my loved ones
• How evidential mediumship works (and what surprised me)
• The emotional clarity that came through my dad’s messages
• The unexpected friends who showed up and why their timing mattered
• The wild synchronicities that unfolded after the reading
• The “cliffhanger” message that became a major turning point
• How creativity and spiritual alignment showed up together
• The signs (and numbers!) that made everything finally make sense

In this week’s episode, I sit down with Sara Daves, a spiritual consultant, mystic, and founder of Sigma Femme Society, to explore family constellations — a healing modality that helps uncover and release ancestral imprints buried deep in our nervous system and lineage.

We talk about how trauma gets passed down through generations, how the body remembers what the mind forgets, and the fascinating science that explains it all — from mirror neurons to epigenetics.

It’s one of those conversations that bridges the mystical with the practical — equal parts science, story, and soul — and it might just change the way you think about healing.

What You’ll Learn 

• How ancestral patterns shape your emotions, relationships, and sense of safety
• What actually happens in a family constellation session
• Why mindset work and affirmations can’t reach inherited wounds
• The science behind “the knowing field” (and how it connects us all)
• Practical ways to release what isn’t yours to carry

In this episode, I’m joined by Amy Banocy—spiritual teacher, bestselling author of Bearing It All, and guide for women who are ready to reclaim their full energetic presence. We talk about what it looks like to listen to the whispers of your body, shift your energy from burnout to radiance, and trust the deeper “yes” that’s always guiding you.

Amy shares the personal story behind her five-day workshop Charged the F Up, including how it came through during a moment of deep disconnection—and how it’s become a movement helping women reconnect to their power through embodiment. We also talk about what gets in the way of hearing your inner voice, the real reason you're feeling “off,” and why sometimes the most important thing you can do is take a walk and cry.

This one is full of powerful reminders about energy, embodiment, and coming back home to yourself.

Episode Highlights

• How Amy received the idea for Charged the F Up during a time when she felt completely disconnected
• The connection between burnout, energy depletion, and ignoring your body’s signals
• Why embodiment isn’t just movement—it’s about presence, truth, and internal permission
• What happens when women say “yes” to their aliveness
• The subtle ways we override our intuition (and how to stop)
• Practices to help you regulate your nervous system and raise your energetic frequency
• Why emotional release is often the key to clarity
• How Amy is helping women live in alignment with their full energetic expression

Heather is a transformational coach, Reiki master, and the founder of Luminous Lite, a space for self-discovery and emotional healing. After 25 years in the corporate world, a couple of sudden losses and a health scare brought her to a full stop. What came next was nothing short of an awakening.

She left her corporate career, found her way to psychosynthesis (aka “the alchemy of the self”), and built a life centered on helping others find peace, alignment, and meaning.

This conversation is raw, real, and full of heart—the kind that reminds you that healing doesn’t have to look perfect. It just has to be honest.

✨ What you’ll hear in this episode:

• The “dark night of the soul” that led Heather to rebuild her life
