What if reality is not as fixed as it seems, and your thoughts, energy, unconscious beliefs, and spiritual connection are shaping more than you realize?

In this episode of The Curious Soul, Cristina Malavenda and Marty Go sit down with animal communicator, intuitive teacher, hypnotherapist, and neuro-linguistics practitioner Alex Andersen for part two of their conversation, this time exploring Huna, manifestation, ancient spiritual sciences, energy work, symbols, the unconscious mind, and the deeper connection between humans, source, and reality itself.

Alex explains how Huna works with symbols, frequency, the higher self, and spiritual support to create harmony in the body, the environment, and the energetic field.

She also shares a powerful story from her equine work that made even her question what was possible.

Then the conversation moves into manifestation.

Alex opens up about a difficult chapter in her own life when she realized just how quickly her thoughts and energy were shaping her reality.

Cristina, Marty, and Alex explore what it means to be a conscious creator, why the unconscious mind is the "goal getter," how roadblocks may actually be feedback, and why the universe may not be saying no so much as showing us where we are not yet congruent.

The conversation also expands into Avaiku, spirit guides, energetic protection, ancient Egypt, Jesus as an ascended master, Pleiadians, sacred technology, astrology, collective awakening, and the idea that all of this work may ultimately be about remembering how deeply connected we already are.

Whether you are curious about manifestation, skeptical but open, or wondering why certain patterns keep showing up in your life, this conversation invites you to consider that reality may be more responsive than you think.

You'll hear:

• What Huna is and how Alex understands it
• How symbols, frequency, and energy work may support manifestation
• A powerful equine story that challenged what seemed possible
• Why Alex says our thoughts and energy can shape reality quickly
• How manifestation can become a major spiritual pivot
• Why roadblocks may be feedback from the unconscious mind
• What Avaiku are and how Alex works with them
• Why ancient spiritual sciences may point back to connection, source, and collective awakening

What if the thoughts, feelings, and sudden "knowing" you have about your animal are not random, but part of a real telepathic connection already happening beneath the surface?

In this episode of The Curious Soul, Cristina Malavenda and Marty Go sit down with animal communicator, intuitive teacher, hypnotherapist, and neuro-linguistics practitioner Alex Anderson to explore animal communication, telepathy, intuition, soul contracts, reincarnation, and the deep spiritual bond between humans and animals.

Alex shares how she first experienced animal communication through a sudden moment with her horse, when she heard the words "I can't breathe" in her own mind. What began as one undeniable intuitive experience eventually led her to study, practice, and teach animal communication in a grounded and accessible way.

Then everything opened up.

Alex explains how intuitive information may already be coming through our five senses, why "first thought, best thought" matters, and how people often dismiss animal communication because they assume they are making it up.

Cristina, Marty, and Alex also explore soul contracts with animals, whether beloved pets can reincarnate and return in different forms, why horses may carry memories of human past lives, and how animals can mirror our wounds, healing, and growth.

The conversation also expands into animal behavior, rescue animals, emotional healing, telepathy, children's natural openness, and the idea that communicating with animals may become a gateway into communicating with plants, spirit guides, elemental beings, and more.

Whether you already feel deeply connected to your animals, are skeptical but curious, or simply wonder whether your pet understands more than you realize, this conversation invites you to consider that communication may already be happening.

You'll hear:
• How Alex first heard her horse say "I can't breathe"
• Why everyone may already be naturally telepathic
• How intuitive information comes through the five senses
• Why "first thought, best thought" matters
• What soul contracts with animals may really mean
• How animals can reincarnate into different bodies and species
• Why horses may carry memories of human past lives

What if spirit guides are not far away, but already communicating through signs, intuition, dreams, synchronicities, and the quiet moments when you feel supported?

In this episode of The Curious Soul, Cristina Malavenda and Marty Go sit down with trance medium, spiritual teacher, life coach, and Spirit House Collective founder Aja Daashuur to explore spirit guides, mediumship, intuition, energetic protection, and what it means to build a grounded relationship with the unseen.

Aja shares how she first experienced visitations as a child, why those early encounters felt terrifying, and how a difficult chapter in adulthood eventually led her back to meditation, healing, and the spiritual connection she had once shut down.

Then the door opened.

Aja opens up about the ceremony that changed her life, the moment she began hearing her guides outside of herself, and how automatic writing became one of the ways she learned to communicate with them.

Cristina, Marty, and Aja also explore what spirit guides are, how they may differ from loved ones who have passed, why different guides may step forward during different seasons of life, and how guidance can support our calling, purpose, healing, and everyday choices.

The conversation also expands into skepticism, surrender, clairvoyance, clairaudience, clairsentience, energetic boundaries, black tourmaline, the importance of not leaving an "open door," and Aja's Spirit Guide Portal Oracle Deck, created with her husband Justin.

Whether you already feel connected to your guides, are skeptical but curious, or simply wonder how to recognize support from the other side, this conversation invites you to consider that you may be more guided than you realize.

You'll hear:

• What spirit guides are and how they may communicate
• Why Aja says we are never truly alone
• How childhood visitations shaped her spiritual path

What happens when a child begins sharing memories of another lifetime and the details point to one of baseball's most legendary figures?

In this episode of The Curious Soul, Cristina Malavenda and Marty Go sit down with author Cathy Byrd and QHHT facilitator Jeroen de Wit to explore children's past life memories, reincarnation, regression, healing, and the possibility that our souls may carry memories across lifetimes.

Cathy shares the extraordinary story of her son Christian, who began talking about being a "tall baseball player" when he was just a toddler.

The memories only became more specific.

As Christian continued describing another life, Cathy began searching for answers. What started as a mother trying to understand her child's unusual statements eventually led her to Dr. Jim Tucker at the University of Virginia and to Jeroen de Wit for past life regression.

Cathy opens up about the fear, confusion, and validation she experienced as Christian's memories seemed to connect to Lou Gehrig, Babe Ruth, Yankee Stadium, and details from baseball history she later researched.

Cristina, Marty, Cathy, and Jeroen also explore how QHHT works, why children may remember past lives more easily than adults, what the higher self may reveal during regression, and how soul memories can bring healing, perspective, and a deeper understanding of why we are here.

The conversation also expands into grief, illness, free will, Dolores Cannon's work, historical validation, and the idea that our relationships may carry meaning across lifetimes.

Whether you are fascinated by past lives, skeptical but curious, or wondering what children's memories may reveal about the soul, this conversation invites you to consider that who we are may extend far beyond this lifetime.

You'll hear:

• What Christian began saying about being a baseball player in another life
• How Cathy responded when his memories became more specific
• Why Dr. Jim Tucker's research helped Cathy understand what may be happening
• How Cathy's past life regressions with Jeroen connected to Christian's memories
• What details pointed toward Lou Gehrig, Babe Ruth, and baseball history
• How QHHT explores the higher self, healing, and soul memories
• Why children may remember past lives before those memories fade
• What Cathy and Jeroen believe these experiences may teach us about who we are

What happens when a man disappears for five days after a UFO encounter witnessed by his entire crew?

In this episode of The Curious Soul, Cristina Malavenda and Marty Go sit down with Travis Walton, one of the most widely known alien abduction experiencers in modern American history.

Travis shares what he says happened in 1975 while working as a logger in the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest in Heber, Arizona, when he and six other men encountered a strange glowing craft in the woods.

Moments later, everything changed.

Travis opens up about the blast of energy he says knocked him unconscious, the search that followed, the suspicion his crew faced, and the memories he later recovered about waking up inside what he believes was a craft.

Cristina, Marty, and Travis also explore how his experience was later portrayed in Fire in the Sky, what the movie changed, why he believes the beings may have been trying to help him, and how nearly fifty years of skepticism, scrutiny, and public debate have shaped the way he talks about truth.

The conversation also expands into a later triangle sighting Travis describes near Burbank, UAP disclosure, government secrecy, the possibility of life beyond Earth, and what it means to stay open without losing discernment.

Whether you are fascinated by alien abduction stories, skeptical but curious, or wondering what UAP experiences may reveal about reality, this conversation invites you to consider how much we still do not know.

You'll hear:

• What Travis says happened in the woods in Heber, Arizona
• Why his crew came under suspicion after he disappeared
• What he remembers about waking up after the encounter
• How his story differs from the movie Fire in the Sky
• Why he believes the beings may have been helping him
• What he says about a later triangle sighting near Burbank
• How he thinks people should evaluate what is true
• Why he believes sightings may be reminding us that we are not alone

What if your dreams are not random, but messages trying to get your attention?

In this episode of The Curious Soul, Cristina Malavenda and Marty Go sit down with dream doula D. Lisa West to explore dreams, intuition, recurring patterns, premonitions, and the deeper guidance that may come through while we sleep.

D. Lisa shares how vivid dreams have shaped her life since childhood, including one unforgettable dream that later mirrored real events in waking life.

That experience changed the way she understood dreams forever.

D. Lisa opens up about how dreams can become a source of insight, creativity, communication, and inner guidance. She explains why recurring dreams may continue until we understand their message, how frightening dreams can reveal something unresolved, and why writing dreams down can help us recognize patterns over time.

The conversation also expands into the dreams we hold for our lives, how family expectations and inherited beliefs can keep us from pursuing what we truly want, and why the body may sometimes signal when we are out of alignment with our path.

Whether you remember your dreams every night or believe you do not dream at all, this conversation invites you to consider that your dreams may be offering guidance, clarity, and a deeper connection to your own inner wisdom.

You'll hear:

• How recurring dreams can point to unresolved patterns or emotions
• What it means to ask your dreams for guidance before you sleep
• Why scary dreams may be trying to get your attention

What if the part of yourself you are most afraid to share is actually the doorway to your purpose?

In this episode of The Curious Soul, Cristina Malavenda and Marty Go sit down with visibility coach, quantum healer, and former publicist Kristen Shea.

Kristen shares how walking away from a narcissistic dynamic led to a complete reset of her identity, relationships, career, and sense of self. With almost no money left and bills coming due, she found herself praying for help and receiving an answer she did not want to hear: share her spiritual and channeled messages publicly.

That one brave step became the beginning of a completely new life.

Kristen opens up about the fear of being seen, why authenticity can feel like a moving target, and how early experiences, shame, guilt, family dynamics, and survival patterns can teach us to hide the truth of who we are.

Cristina, Marty, and Kristen also explore what it means to become visible in a way that feels spiritually aligned, how the quantum field may reflect our inner world, why our triggers can point us toward healing, and how asking for support can help us move forward.

The conversation also expands into spiritual gifts, channeled messages, galactic beings, Pleiadians, discernment, divine support, purpose, mission, and the calling that can emerge when you finally allow yourself to be fully seen.

Whether you are afraid to share your voice, step into your purpose, trust your gifts, or let people see who you really are, this conversation invites you to consider that your story, your truth, and your lived experience may be exactly what someone else needs.

You'll hear:

• Why authenticity can feel like a moving target
• How fear, shame, and family expectations can keep us hidden
• What happened when Kristen followed divine guidance and posted her first channeled message
• How visibility, identity work, and spiritual healing connect
• What Kristen means by the quantum field and energetic clearing
• Why life may mirror back the wounds we are ready to heal
• How discernment matters when exploring spirituality
• Why your purpose may be connected to the truth you are afraid to share

What happens after a near-death experience when someone returns with new spiritual abilities and a completely different understanding of life?

In Part Two of this conversation on The Curious Soul, Cristina Malavenda and Marty Go continue their discussion with near-death experiencer, author, and transformational coach Vincent "Vinney" Tolman.

Vinney shares the ten principles he says he learned during his experience, including authenticity, love, intuition, the power of our thoughts, the purpose of adversity, and the idea that we are all connected.

He also opens up about what happened after he returned and began seeing and communicating with spirits. Unsure whether what he was experiencing was real, Vinney sought medical help, leading to an extraordinary encounter with a doctor that neither of them could explain.

Cristina and Marty explore how Vinney discovered the identity of the guide he met during his near-death experience, why he believes generations of ancestors remain close to us, and how asking for support can help us move through life with greater trust and purpose.

Vinney also shares his thoughts on technology, division, healing, manifestation, and what it means to consciously choose the reality we create.

Whether you are curious about near-death experiences, spirit guides, ancestors, intuition, healing, or the deeper purpose of life, this conversation offers a powerful reminder that we may be far more supported than we realize.

You'll hear:

• The ten principles Vinney says he learned during his near-death experience
• Why authenticity is essential to giving and receiving love
• How technology and fear can disconnect us from our intuition
• What happened when Vinney began communicating with spirits
• The message that shocked his doctor
• How he discovered the identity of his guide

• How thoughts, belief, and intention can shape our lives
