In this episode, Mimi reflects on her own potential past life connections through her affinities, talents, interests, and early fears in this life. While she has always had an interest in past lives, watching a TV show where the main character traveled back in time to the Salem Witch trial days triggered a past life memory that inspired what is turning into a series of episodes on this topic for the podcast. Perhaps her reflections will inspire you to make some of your own past life connections?

This episode picks up where the last one left off, talking about psychic dreams and waking life experiences. Mimi shares the story of Madame C.J. Walker who was born in the 1800’s to former slaves, but got an idea from a dream that led to her creating a business that would make her the first female, African American millionaire. You will also hear about famous ideas, inventions, songs, and literary works from history through modern times that were inspired by dreams. Then, Mimi’s father shares some of the very psychic dreams that his father (Mimi’s grandfather) had while building Hungry Horse Dam in Montana in the 1950’s.

Gaslighting is a form of emotional manipulation used by abusers to try to make another person doubt their sense of reality and sanity in order to control them, often isolating them from family and friends in the process. If you’ve heard the story of ‘Dirty John’, this is a classic example of gaslighting. In this episode, psychotherapist Dr. Stephanie Sarkis talks about how gaslighting behavior can show up everywhere from families, to dating, to child custody, and in the workplace. She also shares with us how we can spot the signs of a gaslighter, and what to do if we find ourselves in a personal or professional relationship with one.

At the end of the show we talk about an organization that helps educate young people about how to avoid abusive relationships: https://www.joinonelove.org/
