SHE IS IN LONG ISLAND MEDIUM.
HERE'S THE STORY ON THAT.
REPORTER: THERESA, IS THIS A
FAIR ASSESSMENT? AN AVERAGE
MOM. PICKED UP. WE TALKED TO
THE DAD --
THAT'S FAIR (LAUGHING)
THAT'S FAIR.
BECAUSE I LOVE, YOU KNOW, ON
YOUR SHOW. OBVIOUSLY YOU DO
AMAZING READING AND HAVE THIS
UNIQUE SLICE OF LIFE WHERE, YOU
KNOW, IT'S YOU AND YOUR KIDS AND
RUNNING ERRANDS BUT THEN YOU GET
THE URGE WITH STRANGERS WHERE
YOU HAVE TO -- YOU FEEL
OBLIGATING TO DO READING.
LISTEN. I KIND OF FEEL LIKE
IF I WAS A DOCTOR. RIGHT? AND
SOMEBODY WAS IN DISTRESS, ARE
YOU GOING TO GO AND HELP THEM?
OR -- OR IF I WAS AN EMT WORKER.
IT'S THE SAME THING. I JUST
HAVE THIS NEED -- AND I THINK
EVERYONE HAS THE ABILITY TO
CONNECT WITH THEIR OWN LOVED
ONES THAT HAVE DEPARTED. AND I
FEEL IT REALLY VALIDATES THAT.
SO PEOPLE -- YOU'RE NOT CRAZY.
IT'S NOT YOUR IMAGINATION. IT'S
NOT WISHFUL THINKING. THERE IS
MORE TO LIFE TRULY.
WHAT'S THE FEELING YOU
GET -- LET'S SAY YOU'RE OUT WITH
YOUR DAUGHTER. YOU GUYS WERE
JUST GETTING A CUPCAKE OR
SOMETHING LIKE THAT. WHAT DOES
THAT FEEL LIKE?
WELL, IT DEPENDS. LIKE, YOU
KNOW, IT DEPENDS. SPIRIT -- IF
THEY WANT TO GET MY ATTENTION,
THEY TYPICALLY MAKE ME FEEL HOW
THEY DIED. THAT'S MY MAIN WAY
OF COMMUNICATING WITH THEM IS
THROUGH FEELING. SO I'LL
FEEL -- LET'S SAY IF SOMEBODY
DIED OF -- OF AN ANEURYSM OR
BRAIN TUMOR. I IMMEDIATELY FEEL
A PAIN IN THE FRONT OF MY
FOREHEAD AND MY MIND GOES
COMPLETELY BLIND. FOR A SPLIT
SECOND. SO THAT'S MY SYMBOL
THAT SOMEBODY HAD SOMETHING WITH
THE BRAIN. SOMETHING WITH THE
CHEST, I ACTUALLY LOSE MY BREATH
AND I'LL JUST FEEL WHETHER IT BE
A MOTHER OR BRURG ENERGY OR
YOUNG SOUL, WHERE JUST FEEL
THAT -- I JUST FEEL THAT
RELATIONSHIP OR BOND. AND TAKE
IT FROM THERE. THAT'S HOW
USUALLY THEY GET MY ATTENTION.
I GOTCHA. AND WHY DO SOME
PEOPLE COME THROUGH AND SOME
DON'T?
WELL, THE -- WHAT I'VE
EXPERIENCED IS THAT THE SOULS
THAT COME FORWARD WITH THE SOULS
THAT NEED TO DELIVER MESSAGES.
THAT SOMEONE IS -- BECAUSE LOOK.
I -- I HAD -- IT TOOK ME FIVE
YEARS TO EMBRACE THE FACT THAT I
HAD THIS AMAZING GIFT. FIVE
YEARS TO SAY, WHY WOULD SOMEONE
WANT TO COME MEDIUM? I DIDN'T
REALIZE THAT WHEN SOMEONE DIES
WHETHER THEY DIE TRAGICALLY,
WHETHER THEY DIE OF OLD AGE OR A
QUICK ULNESS, WHATEVER IT MAY
BE, SOMETIMES PEOPLE ARE LEFT
WITH BURDENS AND GUILTS. SHOULD
HAVE AND ONLY IF. AND WHAT I
LEARNED FROM BEING A MEDIUM IS
THAT THESE BURDENS AND GUILTS
DON'T GIVE UP THE ABILITY TO
HEAL. WE'RE GOING TO BRING THIS
THROUGH THE REST OF OUR LIVES.
BUT I -- THE HEALING PROCESS IS
SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO DO.
AND BY US BEING ABLE TO LIVE
LIFE WITH HAPPINESS AND JOY,
THAT ALSO HELPS THE SOULOFFS OUR
LOVE -- SOULS OF OUR LOVED ONES
BECAUSE THEY'RE LIVING LIVES
THROUGH OUR EYES IN OUR SOUL
FORM. THAT'S WHY IT'S
IMPORTANT -- WHEN THE SPIRITS
COMMUNICATE, THERE ARE ALL KINDS
OF THINGS TO TALK ABOUT. THINGS
THAT HAPPENED YEAR UZGO -- YEARS
AGO, AFTER THEY DIED, AND
FEELINGS AND EMOTIONS AND MAYBE
CONVERSATIONS. THE PRIOR DAY.
AND IT'S, YOU KNOW, YOU SIT BACK
AND SAY, WAIT A MINUTE. HOW
WOULD SHE KNOW THAT? THAT I WAS
IN THE DELI AND I WAS TALKING
ABOUT GOING TO A CONCERT. HOW
WOULD SHE KNOW THAT?
THAT'S ALL PART OF THE
VALIDATION PROCESS. YOU COULD
SEE THEM LIGHT UP. IT'S THAT
LITTLE NUGGET OF INFORMATION
THAT NOBODY WOULD REALLY KNOW.
EXACTLY. YOU CAN'T -- AND I
LOVE HOW PEOPLE TELL HOW I DO
THIS. BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW HOW
IT WORKS. I LOVE HOW PEOPLE ARE
SAYING, SHE DOES THIS. SHE
READS YOUR BODY LANGUAGE. I
SAY, WOW. I WISH IT WAS THAT
EASY. (LAUGHING).
SO THERESA YOU'RE GOING TO
BE IN JACKSONVILLE ON JANUARY
30. WHAT CAN PEOPLE EXPECT?
WELL, MY HAIR AND NAILS WILL
BE DONE. I'LL HAVE ON A DRESS
AND FABULOUS SHOES (LAUGHING)
IT'S GOING TO BE A LIFE CHANGING
EXPERIENCE. I'M GOING TO COME
OUT ON THE STAGE. MAYBE 10, 15
MINUTES TALK. A LITTLE SPEECH
ON HOW SPIRITS COMMUNICATE IN A
LARGE VENUE. GIVE A COUPLE OF
EXAMPLES. AND SHARE A COUPLE OF
STORIES. AND THEN WHEN SPIRIT
IS READY, I GO. THE AMAZING
THING ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE
IS -- I NEVER WANT PEOPLE TO BE
DISCOURAGED OR BE INTIMIDATED.
WE CREATED SUCH AN IPTIMATE
MOMENT. -- INTIMATE MOMENT.
AND I DON'T WANT NO ONE TO FEEL
THAT THEY'RE IN A THEATER OF
3,000 PEOPLE. THAT'S THE THING
PEOPLE WALK AWAY WITH. IT'S
SUCH AN INTIMATE EXPERIENCE AND
YOU FEEL AS IF YOU'RE A PART OF
IT. I'M NOT ON THE STAGE. I'LL
BE WHETHER YOU'RE IN THE FRONT
ROW OR UP IN THE BALCONY, THE
SPIRIT GUIDES ME. THAT IS WHERE
I'LL BE. NOTHING IS RECORDED.
THEY JUST FOLLOW ME AROUND THE
THEATER AND THEN THEY TRANSMIT
IT TO THE BIG SCREEN SO EVERYONE
CAN FEEL AND WITNESS AND BE A
PART OF THIS.
PERFECT. THANK YOU SO MUCH
FOR YOUR TIME.
THANK YOU.
