Thanks for having me on. I gotta say, I'm really proud of you because this has been a few years in the making, right? And I remember when New World Library first approached you about writing a second book and you were having a kind of experience like, this is awesome. This is a beautiful opportunity. I'm a heck yes. And there was like, where's the juice? So you did it. How did you find the juice to do this? Well, I waited for the inspiration, essentially. Rather than forcing something, I had to wait for the inspiration to come and I had a wonderful, I'd call it a financial miracle happen and Spirit sat me down and said, yeah, we brought this on and it's not just for you. We brought it on like this so that you can share. Share the steps and share a different way that we can help folks. And I think it was within the context of, during lockdown and things like that, people were struggling, people losing their businesses. And so at the time, yeah, it was very inspiring. And so I had to wait for it, Debbie. You had to wait for it, but you know what had happened. And I love that because when you change that perspective, it's so true what you said. When you change the perspective from the me to the look who I'm serving, it's very different. Because you have a piece of the puzzle, which regards angels that other people don't. And you're gonna present it in a way that nobody else will. So thank you for creating your dream and helping us at the same time. Thank you, Debbie. Yeah, I dared, I dared to do it. Yes. Awesome, I know when you created your dream. So in this new book, loved it, by the way, love all the exercises. Thank you for that. It wasn't just talking, but you give so much practical. And you said in the new book, quote, all we need to do is call upon divine intervention that is ready and able to help us fulfill our financial and best life dreams. So is that something you use in your life? How do you work with that? Yes, I talk to angels a lot. I mean, even when I'm not asking for something, it's just to me at this stage, it's about just realizing that we have friends that are there, companions, sometimes when we need to process something, talk to someone, but yes, I ask for all the things. And I also give a lot of love too, a lot of gratitude. It's kind of like a two-way street. But yeah, it took me a while to realize how real angels were and how they literally are just right here for all of us. And they are not from a specific religion. They are beyond religion. And they are here for all of us, from all walks of life, from all over the world. And there's a lot of different ways to slice that pickle, as far as there's a lot of different things you can call it or call them, but they're there, they're there. And do you see them or do you feel them? It's a little of both, it's a little of both. It depends on the context. In the beginning, I could sense them and they would, in the beginning, when I first realized they were real, it's because I witnessed a miracle and I realized, oh gosh, okay, angels are real. And again, depending on the situation, I think my first primary way of experiencing them was through clarsentience, meaning I could feel the presence come into the room or I'm trying to do just regular psychotherapy and I feel the angels walk in and I'm just going, oh gosh, what am I supposed to do? Should I say this out loud? Because back in the beginning, when I started working with angels, it happened spontaneously and it took me a while to kind of adapt to the new reality that I'm feeling, seeing, experiencing angels and what the heck am I supposed to do about it? Amazing, amazing. When you do see them, what do you see? Exactly. Well, depends on if I have my eyes open or eyes closed. Sometimes it's just lights or little twinkles. A lot of us have these experiences, it's just we don't connect the dots. So sometimes it's a flash of light. Sometimes it's kind of like an etheric or kind of like a radiance that's stronger on one side of someone or the other or above them. Sometimes I just, again, like I can feel if they're touching someone's hand and then I'll say, hey, do you have any pressure on your left hand? And so again, there's a lot of different ways but people experience angels in a lot of different ways. But yeah, I usually just see lights. I don't see like the full wings with the sword or anything like that. Loose names, all of the above. Yeah, but for me, I know it's angels versus like an ancestor because of how it feels. To me, it feels a little more effervescent, a little brighter, whereas ancestors feel more like people walking in the room. Interesting, interesting that you can perceive that as well. Okay, so we mentioned at the beginning and I like to deliver about creative solutions and you have experienced them. I know you work with people, both privately and in groups. So what do you teach? Teach us right now. What are some creative solutions? And this is a very spiritual crowd. So you wanna maybe give us some stuff we haven't heard before. For those who are out there like, yeah, in fact, I just want a little tangent here but there's a beautiful exercise right at the beginning about what do you need cash for right now? And you make a list and there's some things to do. But folks who wanna grow a bank account, maybe they say, I really wanna do this ex-business or I'm an entrepreneur and I have a dream of, I'll even throw in somebody who, let's see, let's go across the board, somebody who has debt and God, their dream is to travel the world. Ta-da, what would you recommend? There's a lot of different things that they could do. So let me just feel into like what would be a good first step for someone like this. First, I would say call in your angels. Even if you don't know which angel yet, you call in your angel and you ask them to de-shame your game. Meaning sometimes if we're really in debt, we somehow feel like failures, we feel burdened and sometimes shame itself blocks us from miracles, blocks us from that connection because maybe we feel unworthy. And I talk about that in the book, talk about shame. So you can call the angels in and first just identify what the heavy feeling about this is. So maybe it's shame, maybe it's just a depression or anxiety. So identify that first feeling about it, think of the situation, how do you really feel? And then you can call in your angels, do some deep breathing and ask them to lift some of that off of you and can reconnect you with your heart. So I always work with angels as an act of love. So when you think about why we want more cash, we wanna pay off our debt so that we can do this and this and this. But when we really sum it up, we wanna experience more love in our lives. And sometimes the depletion, the anxiety stops us from that. So I like to just get clear on, what's my overarching feeling about this angels? Help me remove some of this stuff. And then what kind of love am I trying to call in? I'm trying to call in feeling safe in my body, safe in my bank account. And I want to have overflowing cash or I would love to, and a lot of people are in this place right now, I would love to quit my job, my J-O-B and do heart-centered work where I serve from my soul and get paid at the same time. How do I do that? So angels can give us creative solutions, but it is a very personal recipe, a very personal process. Even though I line up in the book, rituals and different steps to really open up the pathway, I always invite people to go beyond just quick cash and really get into the why. And there are tons of angels that can specifically help with different things. So let's say that you realize, gosh, I have a really stinky attitude about life and stinky attitude about things. And it's just, because that's not always congruent with attracting a bunch of cash. So if that's that, then you can look in the book or look at your whatever your angel resources and go, hey, Archangel Jofiel helps me beautify my thoughts, beautify my mind. And if we are in a dark mental place, I always recommend calling on Archangel, either Michael or Archangel Jofiel. So wealth attraction isn't just a one-step thing. We have to look at how we're feeling about things. Maybe even what are the beliefs that we grew up that limit us based on our skin color, our gender and what our culture tells us about working hard and all of those things. So it's a multifaceted thing, which is why I talk a lot about the different branches of wealth making inside the book. Beautiful. Do you have any examples you could give us client stories who went from one particular status and were able to completely alter that using your methods or perhaps something personal for you? Sure. Yeah. I mean, I talk about my personal situation in the book, but maybe I can talk about a realtor who was really having a hard time moving past. She would only get deals for $999,000. And every time she had a client that was selling a house for one million and more, it just didn't work. And she spent years and she was a busy realtor. Okay. She knew that there was something else happening on the inside. So she came in for a session. We did some work. Spirit showed me that some of the issues was just ancestral issues, things that she had kind of through epigenetics, some old poverty trauma that made her people believe that rich people were terrible people. And so once we identified that belief, we worked with the angels. We cleared that belief. And she literally left that session, went to her next client that day. She came in before this million dollar client because she's like, I'm not gonna do this again. I know it's how I'm gonna go see Corinne. So she did it and she sold her first. She got her first million dollars. Like I think a million 500. And then after that, what was wild is that it's as if a dam broke open. And she said within a week, she had, we're up in the Bay Area in California. She had Beverly Hills calling her, trying to list houses with her. She didn't even know how this person got her number, but it just cascaded. And then since then she's been doing really, really well. Yeah. So again, that's why looking more deeply underneath what might be inhibiting our power to have that, to break our own glass ceilings. First, we have to identify that it is a glass ceiling because a lot of us are just so used to being in a certain place. We just think that's what life is. I know that was true for me. So once you identify it, then you get to task. What are the questions that I can ask myself and do some inner work there? Right, because it's a repeated experience and it's very easy to think this is just what it's like for me. And yet the moment someone who's in that condition looks outside of them, well, you can see there's people not in that condition. And that is the litmus right there. There's nothing different. We're both energy and we're both energy breathing. So something is happening in their lane that is allowing them this overflow and something is clogging up my lane. And I like that you talk about epigenetics could be involved, course past lives, could be involved. And like you said, the family that you grew up in could make a huge difference that you've seen something also repeatedly or been told something repeatedly. And so I just wanna go over what you said for folks so they can remember that, which is first identify well, you need to know what is you wanna create that's not there right now. Then you wanna identify any heavy feelings that are going on. Then you want to call in your angels. Do you need to know your angels names or you can just so say angels? Angels, yeah. You just hope in the beginning, in the very beginning this is something someone can do today. They only don't have to be an expert, an angel expert because your angels are literally right there right now. So, but they need a task, they need something. So if you say, hey, I'm feeling this pressure can you come and help lighten my load and you sit there and breathe and you give it a minute or two, nine times out of 10 you will feel a minimum of 20 or 30% reduction of that intensity. A lot of times people feel it right away. That's true because they always say angel can't just rush in and help they may see earth, this person I love needs help you have to ask. Yes, you have to ask, you have to engage you have to be in relationship period. A lot of people, even religious people don't even know what that means to be in relationship with spirit and relationship needs watering, right? We need communication. Hey, angels, give them some love, ask for stuff talk to them and the more and this is what happened for me the more that I actually did talk to them is the more that the miracles started happening. So, yeah, they're right there right now you don't have to be an expert and you don't even have to believe in them because when I started talking to them I didn't fully believe in them either. Someone just said, hey, talk to them as if they're real and I said, okay. And then the things started happening a cascade effect of amazingness started happening. So it's true for all of us and something else I'm being compelled to say right now through spirit is that this is working with angels is not a woo-woo or airy-fairy practice. This is something that we all have in our DNA this knowledge, this wisdom is ancient through our ancestors. Our ancestors have always worked with spirit with benevolent forces to help us thrive. And so the only way for us to really prove that out is to give it a shot like a scientist because when people think angels I feel like automatically people some people, not your people but some people out there are gonna judge us for like oh, you're so new agey, it's not and none of the work that we're doing is new agey. Channeling is not new agey, it's an ancient art form. Mediumship, not new either, ancient art form. And so the angels too, they're just right here right now and we have to learn I feel the old ways in order to learn how to thrive again and the more that we embrace these things not as a separate secret thing that we're doing but included in all of our lives the more that we receive the benefits and the bounty of that. Ooh, and I love that benefits and bounty. Okay, so first we identify what we want to create then we identify if there are any heavy feelings what those are, then we call in the angels and then we ask the angels and this was incredible, de-shame my game. So we ask the angels instead to allow us to create what it is we desire as an act of love to experience more love or and or safety and or overflowing, et cetera, whatever the truth is for you. And then, gosh, I'm trying to see what I wrote. Centwork, heart, oh, heart centered work. Yeah, heart centered work as well. And then I guess you get out of the way, right? You allow the angels to do their magic because otherwise you're blocking all the good. Exactly, you get out of the way you receive and sometimes you receive in the form of inspiration, the steps that I have in the book are designed to actually bring on like a random quick cash too but I'm a little, I really want people to go also deeper with that. And so if it's not just $20,000 that you want but long-term, like what do you want? What do you desire long-term? And then we call that in but one of the things that we kind of falter around is that spirit will give us also inspiration and ideas. And sometimes we just want to be rescued and sometimes that's not the path. Sometimes it's our job to meet spirit where they are, to meet in between somewhere. So I just wanna stress another way that we get in the way of our bounty is by refusing to take action because they feel too scary. Definitely or overwhelming. Oh yeah. Helming or impossible or it's never gonna work or you think you're shy but you're not really shy, it's just you're just afraid. You're just afraid of putting your neck out there. Yeah, those are really good examples. And it makes me curious, I wouldn't know. I never even heard of the angel Jophiel that you brought up. I've never even heard that name before and I'm not that intimate. I know maybe five different names, woohoo. But the thing that makes me very curious about this, I had, this was last year I had a galactic reading. So that's an Akashic record reading but galactic. And it's a beautiful experience. And the gal, she's very famous and she's pretty amazing. But she told me the inception of my soul was Elohim. And it was the second time somebody told me that that I had a lot of respect for. And the first time I was like, yeah, whatever. That's kind of crazy. And I love it. You just got your back pocket, you know, it's casual. Casual, lighthearted conversation, Elohim. That's right, you're co-creator with God. It's like, woo. But yeah, I really brushed it off the first time. And then a year later, somebody came back and same. And so I paid attention because both these people are tremendous. And I thought, okay, what would it look like to just look into this? But I have from time to time when I do my work and my morning practice or different things, I just call to them because I feel like, well, in a sense, they're my brothers and sisters. Like that's a wild thought. So what if I called them in and I still want to investigate, what does that mean? If I was a co-creator once upon a time or concurrently a lifetime, what does that mean for me today? And I find that fascinating that there could be some of those angelic qualities of you want it, you got it, right? So that's a big path for me right now. And who knows, maybe these processes I've been using of yours could open that conversation for me or that connection for me. Yeah, I mean, that's what angels do. It's not just they help us get cash. They help us with all the things. But one definition of wealth is the deep internal wellspring of wealth which is our spirit, which is that divinity within us and really allowing that fire to burn. But angels classically in Western traditional magic in Kabbalah, it's not just about praying and give me stuff. It's about the highest form of high magic which is illumination, enlightenment and they are bridge builders. So they are messengers, but I see them as bridges to our truth, whatever that truth may be. And what is a banishing ritual? What is a banishing ritual and why is it important? Yeah, a banishing ritual is something again that traditionally folks have used during ceremony. Even shamanic ceremony has a form of banishing but it is a way to clear your container, clear the space when you're entering into a magical operation doing a ritual to call whatever it is and it's a love spell or whatever it is you're doing. So a banishing ritual invokes the way that I talk about it in this book is invokes the powerful quadrants, the four corners and also the archangels that stand in the four corners to create a circle of protection and above you and beneath you so that when you walk into your operation you've cleared all the demons, inner demons and outer demons and you in a way to wait to sterilize your beaker for your experiment. And what have you banished before that has been really prevalent, that has had tremendous impact? Well, banishing is, will banish anything that is in your field that's disharmonious. So one way to think of it is if you're experiencing depression or if you're an empath and you're just caked over and you don't know why you're feeling funky but more than likely you've soaked up someone else's invisible dog poop that they leave behind and you can use the banishing ritual to release you from anxiety, depression and those kinds of things at the very least. Now, if you are really engaged in the spiritual world and you feel like you're being haunted or there's something demonic or kind of yucky around you you can use a banishing ritual to do the protection. So I have banished all of the above. Wow. Like one session and done? Well, yeah. Yeah, that's what it's for. You have to try the banishing ritual to understand but again, it takes, I would say practice and also understanding your own authority. And so what trips us up and what kind of makes us, I would say a little wobbly and afraid of any of that stuff that I just mentioned is when we're not in our power, we're not in our center and we don't understand our deeper nature and our relationship with spirit. So we still feel kind of like small and under attack and there's a lot of different ways that that can manifest. So yeah, we have the authority to banish whatever but we have to kind of practice that. Practice and really feel into it and get really skilled at that. Amazing, yeah, totally. And then so concurrently or contrary, I should say then how can listeners own their power? So everybody who's watching this and listening to this they are lightworkers, they are the earth angels. How would you recommend? Here's how to really step it up and like be all that. Be your own boss, be the boss. Be the boss. Yeah, there's so many different, that's a great question, so many different ways to answer that. Let me just feel into the best way to answer it for right now. I think the first step is not seeking validation from anybody else to really find validation from the inside first. Anytime we're looking for someone to validate us, I believe in angels but my whoever makes fun of me. Okay, if you catch yourself in that game you've just given all your power away because the bottom line is who cares? You're here for something and your unique special people cannot find you if you don't own all that you are. So I say, don't look for validation outside of yourself. Believe and trust whatever your instinct is wherever you wanna move forward. If you got this badass message, say it out loud, say it louder than you ever would. And again, trust, don't look for validation outside and take way bigger risks than you're remotely comfortable with, step all the way outside of the box, put your neck, if you're used to putting it out for like six inches, put it out three feet and go farther because we all have a vision for how we can do that, but there ain't no way to claim your power unless you know you're totally supported and we cannot build that kind of trust, just being in faith. Faith is like, I'm just gonna be in my bubble and I believe in God, I believe in good things will happen to me. Trust is when you step out of the box, you start making power moves, you're not looking for validation outside yourself, you're just doing your work and then you really see if the universe is gonna support you. Yeah, I resonate so much with what you're saying. I was just in a ceremony last weekend, a medicine ceremony, and one of the many things that I was shown by the divine is staying in my own lane. And so, and I love them because they're so graceful with me and gentle, but clear. And they made it very clear that as a sensitive and an empath, I'm aware of like everything, energy and rhythms and movements and this person that, and oh, that person, even in a ceremony, if you're somebody throwing up and... Especially in a ceremony. And my heart's going to them or, oh, I'm not throwing up, I'm not getting rid of anything. I mean, it's a million things you could do with that or just, I think some people also can get very distracted by that. Like, oh, I wish they would be quiet. That's not my thing. But they would just really showing me like, it's a gift, like appreciate the gift of being an empath and knowing and also a clear sentient and stay in your lane. Like bring it back here and it's all about you, Deb. And I mean that in the way, focus on yourself. What's your process? What are you dealing with right now? Forget about what's going on out there. They're good, divine's there too. But what is it you need and want? What is it, where are we moving you right now? And that is really huge for me, seriously. Because I think I was really codependent after my childhood. And that's both from being so uber aware and also needy, needy of love and approval and whatever else. And so coming out of all that and like, I can sense there's a big piece of me stepping into another level of potency that I haven't before. And that was just like one piece. So I really, I'm really vibing with what you're talking about right now. Any importance of that? Your own path, your own journey. Yeah, yeah. I can see what you're saying. And it is a practice, isn't it? To focus on ourselves, especially when we're in paths and feeling everything. And especially I think a lot of women have a hard time really feeling like they're valuable enough to just focus on themselves and not the whole world needs you right now. You need you. And I think right now on the planet, a lot of us are being called deeper inside of ourselves, deeper inside of our hearts because we're getting new pulses to shift and change in different ways like guidance from deeper into the cosmic heart. And for those of us who are here to do trippy work, we need to focus on ourselves and stay in our own lane, right Deb? Yes, totally. And I love what you were saying because it's really now more than ever true. The answer to every opportunity is yes. That's, there is no wobble there. It's okay, by the way, because I feel all that stuff too, like why me? You know, I've been asked to speak on a massive stage in Mexico City in December and I went, okay, that's beautiful. Thank you for finding me and asking me. I was asked in ceremony to sing at the end of Saturday night, you know, there's a part of me like, oh my God, I'm on medicine and I feel this. It's like, whatever. The answer is yes. And I got up and sang and I'm so glad I did because it was beautiful. It was beautiful for me. It was beautiful for me to express. It was beautiful for me to contribute. Beautiful for people to receive and move them. And right, that moment, that was a moment I wouldn't have gotten back. All of these are moments. So I agree. We came here to be big and live big. So the answer to every opportunity is hallelujah. And yes. The answer is yes. Especially if I don't feel capable. Especially if I don't, because I get to prove myself wrong. Exactly. How else are we gonna tap into those deeper tools and resources? And that's what I mean by putting your neck all the way out there a little bit, a little bit wider, a little bit wider. Cause you do, you tap into some really amazing frontiers on the inside. Well, my dear, you are an amazing example of this. Period. So let's talk about that a little bit. Great segue because you identify as a Chicana and Puerto Rican. You outline very clearly in your book the setting that you grew up in. And coming from where you came from, the odds for you to become who you have visibly out in the world as an author, financially, happiness-wise, everything that you've created, owning a retreat center, all of this amazing stuff, the odds were not in your favor. So first let's talk about what is amazing for you about your lineage and about growing up in that amazing culture. Yeah. Well, the package of my lineage is really even just recently coming even more clear. As I anchor and deepen into my own ancestors and integrate more with their wisdom and allow myself to get re-rooted here in my body, but also with my DNA and my genetics, the gift of just having, as much as I love angels, I'm also deeply into earth medicine and plant medicine, ancestral medicine. But the work that I started unpacking over in Shasta has been so extraordinarily mind-blowing in that it has put me into contact with just a deeper magic, deeper medicine and its ancestral. And I just wanna say to all of us here, these gifts that we all have, a lot of your people are deep feelers, empaths, visionaries, seekers. A lot of us feel like we came from nowhere, but it is coming from our ancestors. There are highly gifted humans standing behind us, humans. A lot of us wanna say, oh, it's just coming from the stars or the galactic, whatever. Your ancestors, super bad ass too. So it's vertical and horizontal. And so I just, I come from a lineage of healers and oracles and I can own this now. Oh wait, so say more about that. What do you mean? Yeah. So the oracle side was the Puerto Rican side. And because of colonization, all of us have been uprooted from our lands. A lot of us have been uprooted, no matter where you could be from Europe, but if you're over in the United States, you have been uprooted from your land also. So we lost this connection. But anyways, yeah, my ancestors started piling in, getting the instruction, teaching me. And yeah, the oracles, actually my grandfather was a trans channel, which I didn't know. Because my dad is like, you know, hush, hush about it. And so he was indigenous in Puerto Rico and was a trans channel. So when I was reading about his upbringing and their religion with speedy thismo, I look at the altars of a speedy thismo. And then I look at my altar and I go, oh my gosh, it's almost the same. So I thought I was doing something new, talking to angels and talking, but it's in the lineage is what I'm saying. And then on the other side, and I'm saying for all of us, it's in our lineage. The more that we make contact with the ones that stand behind us, that are in resonance with our deeper work or deeper medicine, the more powerful we become, the more visionary we become. And so on my Mexican side, bunch of healers, big heart centered lovers, people who channel Guadalupe and the compassion goddesses and the warm mother. So that for me is the sum of the work that I do. It's so hard and it's a little like really magical trippy too. It's a combination. So that is like my lineage now. As far as my upbringing, I got a lot of flavor and spice from that, of course. And there was a lot of trauma, a lot of hardship going on. My dad was a Vietnam veteran, did a couple tours and back then they didn't have a lot of support or help for our soldiers. So when he came back, he wasn't well and unleashed some of that on our family and much to his own chagrin too. It's nothing that he would ever sign up for, ever do. But again, this trauma is real. And so there's that and there's a few other things, but at this point in my life, I'm so grateful for, and I say that not just like as a talking head cause that's what I'm supposed to say because like I wrote for it, I was not over it for a long time, I had to chew it up, spit it out, puke it out, vomit it over and over and over again until it became rich nourishment for me. And so my family is just powerful, so full of heart, so full of passion. And I'm so grateful for the lessons, but where I stand today is in no way shape or form would have ever been anything that I could have ever conceived of based on our upbringing. Both my parents were from extreme poverty and it's just extraordinary. It is spicy, thank you. Spicy. I know you have this retreat center in Mount Shasta. And what do you do there? Tell me about this, like I can actually energetically feel the land and it feels very palpable. So tell me about that and what kind of things you create and offer there. Yeah, well, I do a lot of helping people connect with their lineage, with their roots, authentically. So over there, we just embrace that all people come from indigenous people no matter where we're from. And it's very much my work over there to help people embody and reawaken this intrinsic wisdom, how to read the skies and talk to the land commune with the earth. And so the divinity is really making itself known through the earth plane. And up there, I do that work, but the land itself is like mother's milk. It is walking into just excessive amounts of compassion, love. And so yeah, I teach people kind of some of the foundations of how to work more authentically with the spirit of the land and also work a lot with plant medicines as well. Cause that's a heavy part of my training as well. And it's just been so mind blowing, Debbie. It's been so extraordinary, so beautiful. I'm gonna start crying. It's so beyond anything I ever had ever dreamed of when I first conceived of this idea and it's just such an intense blessing. For not just for me or for the community that gathers or the different people who descend upon there whenever I'm kind of doing, we're doing our thing up there, but it has given me a real template for what we can expect and what I can call in for humanity as well. I feel like when we're there, it is a foreshadowing of what is possible for humans when we integrate who we are and when we learn how to really move from the heart. Before we started this show, you mentioned that you have seen a lot of activity in the skies that you go to take a picture and it's like you almost can't take a picture without capturing unexpectedly a spacecraft or something or a being or whatever. So is that something that occurs specifically in Shasta for you? Cause I know there's tremendous activity up there. Yeah, actually it happens in my backyard. Really. I get my home in the Bay Area, but it happens up there. Yeah, I have some good, some pretty good photos of some saucer-like thingies when I'm like live streaming and stuff like that. But yeah, the activity, it really started when I was kind of called to start working directly with the sun as the source of creator, as a source of creator and understanding that the angels in spirit uses the sun as a portal. So I would just kind of call and pray for the angels to come and then take some snapshots and then I didn't do a lot. I haven't done it a lot, but when I do, there's stuff happening in the sky. And it's extraordinary. It's, to me, it's just been such a mind-blowing connection between, you know, if you look at some of the old books, even the cave paintings about these benevolent beings that come from the skies, come from the heavens. And so I'm kind of having fun thinking about angels and these little things in the sky as being one and the same, you know? We have Ezekiel talking about beings, the angels and chariots of fire and all of those things. So I feel like we're on an extraordinary time on the planet. And if we do our work to detox from fear and from paranoia and those kinds of things and open our hearts wider to really receive love and the bounty of love, we can have some pretty extraordinary experiences right now. So you've seen them, you've captured them, certainly you feel them, but mostly we're talking about on camera, right? Or phone, whatever it is you're using. Have you actually had any interaction that you're clear is benevolent galactic sort of thing? You mean like a space alien, you know, sitting here talking to me, handing me a sandwich kind of thing? Well, I don't think it would be that interested in the sandwiches. A pastrami sandwich, pastrami, turkey. But hey, right? We just said you ask and they deliver the angels. But yes, I'm asking you, have you had, you know, there's there's two ways. There's a lot of people who actually have interactions without a doubt. And then there's people who have a it's a telepathic, meaning that they're highly aware with their eyes closed, that there's a benevolent being or beings there sent to interact with them. So yeah, that's what I'm curious about. Oh, it's more telepathic for me. So I will sense where I should take a picture, take a picture, and then there's something in there. And so it's telepathic, you know, right now. It hasn't always been that way. I've had experiences my whole life. I had my first quote unquote alien encounter when I was 19 or 20, that one was was very present. That one was physical and I could feel it in, you know, I could that was a big one. But right now it's just, you know, play time. I don't really have, you know, I just work with the angels. I do my work. I'm really focused on staying here in the third dimension and doing my best work. And the rest of that is like, thank you for being here and for showing me that you're here. Now let's like come and party and help me rock, help me rock and touch people's lives and and and do all that stuff. So but yeah, there's been some close calls where I can really feel the physical presence and that. But when the physical presence is there, my body reacts in a certain way where it starts doing, doing fear because, you know, you sense something that's extraordinary and in a physical form. So I know when it's getting too close and I'll just say it might might my body is not doing well right now. So if you guys can back up, tone it down a little bit, let's talk from afar kind of thing. But I still feel like the beings that are with me are angelic. Yeah. OK. And I want to ask you about your physical rebirth because I mean, I know on one hand because I you and I are connected through social media. And I believe it's been a while that you posted about this. But it's also evident seeing you, you know, seeing all your snapshots, you know, you look absolutely amazing. And so what happened? What happened? What did you come up against? What did you have to let go of? What did you have to heal? You're like, who are you? What helped you to become this physical who you are right now? Yeah, I'm still putting those pieces together. So, yeah, well, the latest I've had a few iterations of these experiences. The latest I I went through a thing when I opened up Casa Condor. And before before my first group, it was very stretchy. Initiation, initiation energy. I thought I was I mean, I was stretched too far and I was stressed. And I was just like, this is a horrible idea. And I was just getting put through the put through the grinder. But it was through during my first ceremony where I started getting taken into a altered, a very altered state. So altered, I didn't need medicine. And so so, yeah, through that process, I had, I guess, the best I can describe it was an integration with my ancestors and also with Condor Spirit, which is the guiding governor over there. And that set me that was that was just a big old heart rebirth, heart and mind, a hyper reset. I became really like a child again, like just playful, running around all this energy, so in communion with spirit, with nature, with the birds that I'm talking to everybody. And and it took me a while to kind of come come and integrate all of that back, especially it's a little awkward as a mother of two coming back. And my whole identity on the inside has shifted. I was very aware of all the masculine side of me. And I had a hard time even labeling myself as a female because there's just a very masculine bird inside of me. I know this is so weird, right? But not at all. It's fascinating. Yeah, I didn't know that this experience was possible. And people that I had trained with in shamanically had never expressed this experience. So I knew that people I didn't know anybody who had this experience. I had to kind of go through it myself as which often happens to me. And then later on, I discover more. But yeah, Debbie, I couldn't even type for six weeks. I couldn't like my fingers. It was like little talents and I'm like, you know, and my my my assistant, she knew and we would just make fun because I was still I was still myself, but not myself and and I had to again pick up the pieces, reintegrate and become Corinne again, but different Corinne. But yes, I couldn't type. I was I was very I my whole how I dress changed. I mean, everything is different. So some people would call it like a walk-in. I don't I didn't experience it like that. Yeah, it was an integration of unconscious aspects of myself. And man, it sounds powerful. It sounds amazing. And I I just have to celebrate you for being that surrendered to allow an experience like that to come through you. I didn't have a that one. It it happened. There was nothing I could do. I was broken, stretched so far. So that one, it happened. And but yeah, I think it was from me taking that bid for power, deciding that it was time to get that house, because that was a big stretch for me financially. As far as dreams go and daring to dream, that's putting that was me putting my neck out there as far as I could go. And it was just time, you know, it was time. And I think so many of us are going through our own rebirth. And in a lot of ways, mine was just just extremely dramatic as as they go for me. I think sometimes just that my first miracle, that was like dramatic. So, you know, it's that Latina flair, it's going to be a little. And you gave up alcohol, right? I don't know if you're still alcohol free, but at the time I seem to recall you gave up alcohol. Yeah, yeah, gave up alcohol. And I think that gave me the bandwidth and the vitality to even dream a bigger dream and to have the the energy to actually pursue pursue that. But yeah, it was just time. It was time. And you lost weight and and and and it's like you're talking about this very internal process, which is incredibly powerful to allow that whole gestation period and that awakening, if you will, and then that fight each of these pieces finding their way somehow back together like Corinne 2.0. You know, it was it was it was a little hair raising because I didn't couldn't identify with my business anymore. Like I didn't have the same passion for things like I had to sell stuff. And I was like, oh, I don't even know how to. So it took me a while. Yeah, it was it was quite a lot to to deal with. But it was really, really on the other hand, fun, you know, super, super fun. My kids had fun with it. They knew like it was obvious my mommy had gone through a change. And so so they just kind of laughed when we just giggled, you know, the whole time and hope that I could type again someday. Hope the Talons would learn how to work better. Very awkward, you know. So you naming a condor that was like no joke that was deep. It's a condor. Casa condor condor spirit is legit real thing. And and yeah, I call him grandpappy. I have a picture of him hanging on the wall and this grandpappy condor and he gives everybody who goes blessings. And then when I'm up there and now, you know, obviously, I channel condor spirit and and and and, you know, I discovered afterwards that condor to the Peruvian folk, you know, down in Peru represents that the condor gives you a crystal heart and it's another word for Christ's heart. And so it helps us be light and playful and all of those things. So condor spirit, you know, does does some good healing for folks. And, you know, people get giggly and playful and ridiculous and this is what we all need. Well, that's awesome because I'm actually in Shamanic School, a six month program. And we are it's next week or the week after we are starting on Great Eagle Condor, the North direction, our final direction. Although I'm sure Pachamama and the ancient ones and Father Sky, Grandmother Moon will be in there towards the end as well. However, I'm very excited for that direction. You know, just the feeling of the Great Eagle Condor knowing that, you know, here we are in 3D and it's often like this, isn't it? You know, you're everything so real. Exactly. And once you take a bird's eye view of something, you know, you're actually looking down and you can see the matrix of everything. First of all, the drama leaves, all the import leaves. And you're able to see so much more when you widen back. And I love this idea of the first of all, the freedom of the bird and the wisdom of the bird and, yeah, that they fly with great spirit above the mountains, all of that. So hearing you share this, I'm very excited to get into that learning and teaching soon. Oh, yeah, the animals, the animals. It it's it's extraordinary. And, you know, it's it's as if the angels then came to me in a different form so I could understand them in a different form because birds, wings, you know, all the things, but birds are angels. Angels are the ones that are flying even higher than those. And it's all one beautiful lifestream of blessings. Yeah. So for folks out there who's saying, you know, I'm feeling stuck or, you know, there's something really painful going on. And I would prefer it not be here. How do you suggest that they talk to their angels so that those angels can help them to really create a difference? Well, what they're showing me right now for your people is to lay belly down on the earth first and to just really be present with the earth and dump the heavy energy, the Hucha or the dark energy because it's just energy is the thing is what they're saying now. It's just energy. So try not identifying with it. It just is notice it and dump. Then when you're dumping, it's an archangel sandalfin who comes up from the ground and it's archangel sandalfin talking to everyone right now. And it's almost as if he's showing me us flying above the ground and he's bringing this cord from your from your navel down, pulling you like hot air balloons down to the ground. And and archangel sandalfin is saying if you want peace, if you want safety, if you want rest. Come down, not up. And he's saying talk to him. So for right now, the answer to your question is archangel sandalfin is coming forward. Archangel sandalfin is known as the one who receives our prayers and sends them to creator. And so whatever your prayers are. And they're also telling me to tell you to not or to tell tell everyone, don't think that because they're angels, you have to be righteous or perfect about it. You can ugly cry, you can cuss, you can tantrum when down on the ground, you can say, why, why, why, you can rage? And they're saying these big emotions, it's very important and that they're big enough for you to be able to for them to be able to hold you in a way that maybe no one else has held you or maybe we couldn't accept that spirit would be able to hold us in this way. So they're saying tantrum rage and ask spirit to help relieve you of this and don't feel like you have to show up as anything. But exactly what you are in the moment. Thank you so much for that. That's beautiful. Yes. What about signs so people who are listening are like, well, I want to know my angels are real. So and I want to know that they're really here to help me. How can we ask for signs from them? I won't even ask you what the signs look like. But how do we ask for signs and then how do we identify? Oh, that's what I was asking for. OK, so right now it's they're coming in through the body and they're saying, first call call us in and then wait until you feel something in the body, you feel something. So maybe it's just like an energy change or you feel warmer, colder, pressure, they're saying, just call us in. You don't need to know the names, just call us in. And then you say, show me, show me the signs, show me that you're real. And I would stand outside for this stand outside. You can even go for a walk. They touch us in specific parts of the body. Like right now, Debbie, you have some touching the tops of your feet and also one on your left shoulder in your back. And so all of us have special places inside of our bodies where you can feel like a light pressure or like an energy or something. Just a light touch. Maybe if you close your eyes, you feel a brightness on your hand, a brightness on your wherever it could be your shoulders. They just want all of us to realize how physically present they are with us, I think. And then from there, once you know how they touch you, you could be like, yo, angels come in and then show me and then they can take you on a walk and start showing you. But stay open, keep your eyes open and know that there's no such things as coincidence. Pay attention to all the small signs. You may not know what they mean, but you know them because you feel it's just like, oh, that was weird. That's peculiar. Write those things down and ask spirit later, hey, what does this mean? And then you learn how to be in communion in relationship. And again, I can't stress that that enough be in relationship as if you're wooing a new lover. How how would you address a new lover, a new friend, a new ally and stay in relationship in that way? And you know, I know what you're saying is the truth, Corinne, because when you say you come as you are, you present exactly as you are, you connect authentically. I mean, you're a character, right? You have this comedic, hilarious, obviously very deep and spiritual side of you, but you're also quite hilarious and unique. And one of the things that I love about your books is that your personality shines. You write how you speak, so you get Corinne in this. And so clearly if you being Corinne and you've had some phenomenal experiences and miracles and really faith turning stuff over and things showing up. And I know you've got stories in here. You talk about people who come to you with different crises or situations and you help them and then they have these amazing things occur in their life. So come as you are, look for the signs, feel it in your body. Thank you for that about my left shoulder and my the top of my feet. And I love knowing they're there. That's beautiful. Yeah, it's really sweet. So this is dear to dream. Not that you haven't created a lot so far in your life. However, for all of us, right, it's the next and the next. What are you next year to dream, Corinne? What's your future dreams and goals? OK, my my biggest dream for myself is to experience love in more extraordinary ways. I think that's my my big goal, experience, love, spaciousness, peace and but my always my biggest dreams is that other people's hearts are are met, are found and met with with love, with that, with spirit. Do you still smoke Mapacho? Of course, I have like about 200 of them just staring right at me. Yeah, yeah, of course. Yes, you go girl. So I love. So are you actually facilitating these ceremonies on your own? Or do you have people who come in and work at your work at Casa? Oh, I mean, I'm trained, you know, because I'm a psychotherapist as well. So I'm trained as a psychotherapist and I've done a lot of shamanic work over the last 13 years, so I kind of weave both in and I also bring bring people and have have. Have other allies come and co-facilitate with me as well. Yeah, and I also now I'm recalling from several years ago, didn't you? You got accepted into the maps program. Is that correct? The IIS. So yeah, trained with maps as well. And so I done. Yeah, I've done. I do. Yeah, I do both. Yeah. How was it? How was that experience? I mean, it was great. It was kind of a weird time because it was right after COVID, at least for that specific training. But I mean, like these medicines are just so wonderful. So I loved understanding them from a more clinical lens rather than just a shamanic or experiential lens, because I know that they've helped me transform so much as well detox from years of trauma. So it's always wonderful. So I thought it was really amazing. But now it's putting, putting all of that, putting my breath in depth of experience and and now just weeding in the shamanic work and then the the earth medicine work and the the ancestral work. I mean, now it's just like this playground of just potent, powerful awesomeness, but it has everything to do with the people who who gather, you know, the geniuses who gather together, who want to be heart explorers, you know, hmm, that's so nicely said. The geniuses who gather, who want to be, who are heart explorers? And new caverns, new, new caverns of the heart, you know, like in the 60s, it was the the psychonauts. And for me, it's so it's not psychonauts anymore. It's it's aeronauts, airs, aeros, it's like the heart, you know, we're exploring new caverns of the heart and it is vast territory. And what do you want to tell us here at the end? How can we get ahold of you? I know Corinne and I'll spell it for everybody. Corinne is C-O-R-I-N, her last name G-R-I-L-L-O. So Corinne Grillo dot com. How can people get your book? How can they find out more about you? Yeah, well, they can get the book on my website or Amazon local bookstore. If you have if you have some around, always support our local bookstores. And if you have any questions about anything that I discussed today, you can email me at support at Corinne Grillo dot com. And tell me where you're headed. Are you full like complete with your book tour? Are you in the middle of your book tour? Where are you at with this? And when does it sort of wean off? Yeah, I think I'm kind of in the in the weaning state. I'm already kind of dreaming about new new books. But I think I actually might go on the road, go to different cities. And just kind of do some do some book signings and stuff like that. I'm heading into summer. My daughter's just graduating from high school. So I am going to take a little break and then see where spirit inspires me to move next. Amazing. Well, thank you yet again for coming on the show. Thank you for your brilliance.
