I love that. How are you? I'm good. I'm so glad to be here. It's a beautiful day. We got here. We were hanging out outside. Your mom.

Your mom is so sweet. That old ball and chain, I love her to pieces, but she drives me everywhere, including crazy. Can we talk about that? So you're almost 30 years old. Yes. Why do you not have a driver's license? You know, I get so many impressions when I'm on the way to work. Oh. And the, you know, psychic kind of moments of knowingness and kind of gets distracting. And so starting off in its inception, my mom drove me just out of convenience. And then I actually had a brain surgery when I was 18. I had a mini stroke and a brain cyst and surgery. And so I was told by a doctor to not drive.

But I got the all clear eventually. And now it's just laziness. That's amazing. We're going to circle back to that, though, because I'd like to always find out. My thing with my podcast is I love to hear people's journeys. I love to hear their stories. I want to know, what who what made you who you are, you know. So let's take it all the way back. Like, are you from L.A.? So originally from central California, a really small agricultural town called Hanford. And it basically just kind of grew up in this rural

environment. I was an only child. My parents were married and still are now for over 30-something years. Oh, we love that for you. I'm really thankful. I came from good people. And, you know, just naturally, after a premonition of my grandmother's death when I was 10 years old, it kind of kicked off what I would later recognize as an ability. But at that age, I didn't, you know, didn't click. Yeah. Do you ever get tired of telling your story over and over and over again? I think it's pertinent. I think it's pertinent for people to get an understanding of kind of what it is that I do. Yeah, I think the history is a big part of it. Absolutely. So you had never had any premonitions prior to being 10 years old? None. And there were definitely

intuitive moments. You know, I think kids are very intuitive by nature, and they're relentlessly honest. Yeah. But this was a little different as I kind of hit puberty, it started evolving into these moments of just knowingness. And I couldn't explain it. I would just say things and people would say that they were true. When you say you had a premonition about your grandma's death, what exactly happened? So in April of 2006, I basically just woke up one night and had this feeling of like a memory that hadn't happened yet. And it's kind of the only way to describe it. It was very clear. It was like in my bones. And when I woke up,

I didn't understand it. But I went to try to explain this feeling to my mom. And as I did, we literally got the news that my grandmother had passed. My dad rang my mom and she picked up the phone. But I didn't tell my dad for years, you know, after my mom and I kind of kept this a secret. And, you know, he was very religious and conservative. And so when I was 16, I kind of jumped out all those closets at once. Yeah, really. So let's circle back real quick because that's a big age gap, 10 to 16. I did hear on another podcast that you said that you grew up Presbyterian, but you would go and kind of like church shop other denominations,

which I found fascinating that somebody at your age would even consider doing that. Yeah, you know, I think I've always been a seeker. I was always looking for a sense of understanding. I'm trying to find a sense of place in the world. And I always did have a deep sense of faith. I found that through my work, it kind of evolved from a place of faith into trust. You know, the work allowed me to really have genuine moments of connection with people, where we would have very real transcendent experiences. And that kind of helped me find ultimately

what I think I was always looking for. But yeah, I was going to any church that would take me when I was probably around 10 to 13. Did you find one that you resonated with the most? Because I was raised Southern Pentecostal. Oh, wow. And I have religious trauma that you could not believe. I consider myself extremely spiritual,

and like you, I have visions and stuff like that too. Not on your level, though, at all. I've never tapped into it either, but ever since I was a child, I've always had visions and stuff like that, predicted death and all that jazz, but I just remember as a child, I always knew that there was something different, you know. And so at 10 years old, were you able to be like, okay, I'm not like everybody else here?

Sure. You know, I think people's responses to me were really what made me feel different. At 10 years old, you're just having these organic experiences. And while they're strange, they're organic. And it's other people who tell you, you know, oh, that's odd, or that's the devil. And at a very early age, I think I had to kind of face my identity, because I had people praying for my soul. You know, the parents of children at school would hear about what I was doing. And there was one instance where a lady who later came to me for a reading, I might add, had a prayer circle for a 10-year-old little boy. And that was me. And so having to face that resistance was really difficult. But it was a kind of early test into having a thick skin and being true to who I was.

I couldn't imagine at 10 years old having people pray, try to like pray over me and like, you know. It was nuts. Pray the demons out. Yeah. Was that traumatic for you? For sure. It was something more of hearing through the grapevine that people in their little groups were, you know, talking about me. And then I'd go to churches and they eventually showed a clip about necromancy, which is what they called it.

Isn't that? That's like raising the dead, right? And they conflated it with mediumship at this youth group I went to. And they popped a video in about the evils of spirit communication. And everyone just kind of looked at me. And I never went back. So it put me through the wringer. And everyone just kind of looked at me.

And I never went back. So it put me through the wringer. But ultimately, I can look back in hindsight and see that those people were there in that room seeking a deeper sense of affirmation of a higher power. And in my work, I'm reminded of that just in a different way. So I don't fault them for their ignorance. We're all kind of on our own path. Yeah. So I had cut you off to talk about myself for a second there. But did you find a denomination

that you resonated with? Not so much, you know, but it was okay. I think it was a kind of a exposure therapy, right? You just kind of see what you believe. And I think there's something really valuable about being open minded and trying different things out. Absolutely. And I always tell everybody, people are like, you know, do you love Jesus? And I'm like, I absolutely love Jesus. But I don't believe that. And not to get dive into religion or anything like that but i just feel like you know jesus was a lot cooler than how they try to put it and i don't feel like it was he was a freaking capricorn okay we're pretty cool characters i know you're a capricorn too right i'm capricorn aquarius i'm january 22nd so i'm right on the cusp but i have a capricorn rising um he was what you know he had to have been cool

you know and just i don't feel like it's so cut and dry and so like heaven or hell and i don't think that um scaring people and being fear-based is the way to make people you want to have a place where you tell people that where they what they can and can't do but then you expect them to go out and spread love. Sure. Yeah. I don't understand how that works. It's very conditional. Yeah.

Very conditional. Absolutely. And, you know, I think through the messages of what I've seen in this work, while I don't claim to have really any of the answers, you know, it's just kind of a very, very little moments of knowingness. There really does seem to be something that transcends belief. When people come through, they really seem to recognize that it was about love. Yeah. And in hindsight, it was about int introspection and every soul that I've

connected with in the thousands of readings that I've done has seemed to come through in almost a state of self-awareness in a deeper state of self yeah they almost present as more of themselves and they even could have been here and it can be really beautiful that's amazing so moving on from you know this 10 year old who's exploring different religions. Yeah. You are growing up. And does your family stay in the church?

Or do you guys kind of like take your own path? They were kind of back and forth. To be honest, I ended up going to church more than my parents at a certain point. So, you know, they were kind of, I think, coming to their own reckoning with religion and trying to identify what they believed. Wow. Even your father? Even my father. Wow. Yeah. And he ended up having his own you know frustration with God he was some family members were excommunicated on that side of

family oh my goodness back in the day so they had their own you know trauma around it but I think through being true to who I was I was able to know my dad you know in a way that I would have never been able to know him and there was really something about authenticity there of the courage that that required and the risk. And in doing so, he and I were able to have a closer relationship. He was able to have a deeper spirituality. You were put on this earth to help him. See that. Thank you. I really, I think so on some level. Yeah. Do you believe in soul families? I do. I do. I think the soul, you know, is such a fascinating subject because people often think of it as like a singular thing.

And if we are eternal, if we go on forever, we would have kind of various chapters of that eternal state. Right. So the soul kind of becomes, in my mind, many things. Yeah. I love that. That's beautiful. The way you explain things is so poetic. I could sit here and listen to you talk for hours.

It's the fairy in me I love it better watch out I'm gonna fart glitter I love it so I know you've told the story before but I need you to tell the bully story because this is like something out of a fucking movie like literally what I heard you say it it kind of took my breath away because I could visualize it I'm such a visual person and hearing you explain the story, just I would love for my listeners to hear the story as well. So when I was in middle school, I was bullied relentlessly. And there was an instance where there was this kid who used to beat me up pretty regularly. He and a number of his friends had watched me go into the school bathroom alone.

And I didn't realize at the time, but I was washing my hands and my hands were wet. And I heard the door open from behind me. And when I looked, I realized he and about three other people came in. And as they rushed in, they blocked the door. They were going to beat up our little Tyler. I know this little homo. What? You're really going to take me out?

Like, come on. That's low hanging fruit, baby. Did you always know you were gay? I mean, I always knew something was going on. Okay, we'll talk about that after the police story. Because I had girlfriends. I was causing chaos in the middle school scene. I had girlfriends, and I was cheating on the girlfriends with their boyfriend.

Oh, you little player. There was a lot going on. Player from the Himalayas. And you better watch out. I love that. This medium went large. I love this. Oh, my God.

Okay, tell the bully story, and then we'll get into that. Well, yes. So the bullies, they blocked the door. I'm so excited. I'm over here. I'm excited. And this weird instinctual thing came over me. I don't know if it was a defense mechanism or what, but I made eye contact with him.

And as I did, I just said, your aunt knows that you were crying with your dad last night and you need to leave me alone. And I just said it point blank. And as I said this, his friends looked at him. He looked at them. And I always say faster than you can say gay. They were like out of that bathroom. They took off running because his friends didn't know what was going on.

But his aunt had passed. And what was crazy is the night before he'd been crying in his dad's arms about that loss. And it was actually a very humbling moment. It scared the crap out of him, but it, for me, really helped both protect me. And years later, he reached out and actually thanked me. Oh, because you taught him probably a lesson there that he was taking his anger and his hurt out on somebody else. That's very true. Yeah. That's amazing. It was really fascinating and kind of an interesting moment of growth for both of us. Yeah. It ended up being kind of sweet. That's wild. So did you guys ever tell your dad that you had this gift? So around 16, I had to start coming out of that psychic closet. My mom was like, Tyler, you're scaring students. You're scaring teachers. You know, I was telling teachers

about their personal lives, which we covered on my Netflix show, Life After Death. My math teacher was interviewed, so you can imagine how that went. And she told about her experience with me. My mom said, you know, Tyler, you got to just tell your dad before he finds out. So I sat him down one day and I basically said something to the effect of, like, dad, you know, ever since I was little, I felt different than the other boys. I don't really know how to explain it. He's like always coming. He's kind of worried. It's coming, huh?

Are you coming out of the closet now, Tyler? Exactly. Then I just said, you know, from what I understand, I'm a medium. And I didn't even fully understand what that meant in its entirety. And now even my definition of medium has evolved. I used to think of it as somebody who acts as a messenger for people on the other side. But I actually have kind of widened that definition of a medium to being really anybody who psychic phenomenon happens around.

I feel like so many people abuse that title though too. Oh yes. And it's not fair because there are people who are like you that really just want to do good with their gift.

Yeah. Whereas there are some people and that's why I have two women that I have had for years in my life that do, one does my birth chart and the other one is my,

she does like all my rituals on the full moons and like psychic stuff for me and they're all positive like you I love that it's I love like the white magic I don't love the black magic that scares the shit out of me you want to be affirmative sorry don't you're fine I interrupt you all the time um so circling back yeah when you were in junior high school you were a little player from the Himalayas that's right you were in junior high school you were a little player from the himalayas that's right all the way through high school just on that jungle gym just

taking them out i love it so when did you realize that you were like okay i don't like girls anymore because you kept cheating on them i had a bunch of bad breakups which i wonder why you know middle school i don't know what was going on i had a much like closer hairline back and back then so i think it was just you know i don't know mccoy col Colt, and Riz. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're a little blondie. Yeah. Girls love the blondies. They did back then.

Yeah. But, you know, alas, it was not meant to be. Aw. So when did you finally just say, you know what, I think I'm just going to date men? You know, I think it was probably around 16, 17. I was like, you know what, probably somewhere in the middle.

But I was like, you know, people don't believe in bisexuals. So I was like, I have to kind of pick one side or the other. Yeah. And unfortunately. Do you still consider yourself bisexual now? I mean, technically.

I love that. But again, you know, people tend to kind of put you into one by another. you have to be in a box. And being in a relationship now with a man for eight years, I think most people are like, that dude's gay.

Yeah. I love it. Would you guys ever bring a girl in like, I mean, mess around with. He's he on the Kinsey scale is a little bit further than I am. Oh gotcha. I think he'll do your nails.

I love that. And what was his name. Clint. Clint. Yes. Hi Clint. We love you. We wish you were here Clint.

So moving on. When did the scribbling start. Yes. Sorry. I love it. How do you like how i segue from it's just so good completely unhinged completely unhinged so segueing from that when did you start like scribbling because i know that like to channel you scribble right scribbling kind of

has helped me turn on and turn off psychically when i'm doing the reading and it's kind of its inception started when i was in school and i was talking to a girlfriend not a literal one but we're talking about homework and i was just kind of doodling as you do when you'm doing the reading. And it's kind of, its inception started when I was in school and I was talking to a girlfriend, not a literal one, but we were talking about homework. And I was just kind of doodling as you do when you're on the phone. And I just found that kind of moments of knowingness that I'd had previously would kind of pop up.

You know, we'd be talking about homework and I'd be seeing the conflict that her dad was having with her mother. So that ended up actually working as kind of a means to concentrate, to kind of turn on so that when I wasn't scribbling, I could maintain some degree of normalcy. But it's really more the repetition of it than anything. It's more about the process than the product.

Yeah. Does your gift ever get in the way of you being able to connect with people because you always have stuff coming at you? Like, do you ever have moments of silence? I definitely carve out time in my life, I think, for solitude, which I think is so important for anybody, especially people who take on others' energy. But it's always busy up here. There's always something. Does it ever get in the way of, like, forming relationships? Like, have you ever, like, gotten a bad feeling about somebody and, like, been able to see visions of something?

Totally. One benefit, I think, of intuition, which we all have, is that it really can act as an inner compass. And when we can refine and kind of finely tune that compass, it won't lead us astray. I think so often people are not inclined to go with their gut feelings. And that leads to a lot of trouble. But people get first impressions. You know, when you meet someone, you will feel a warmth or coldness when you shake someone's hand, when you give them a hug. And I think people need to honor that and go with that because that for me actually, if anything, has saved me a lot of trouble. Yeah.

You know. Absolutely. I do think there's something to be said about giving people the benefit of the doubt. But equally, if someone's really hitting something on a visceral level, be mindful of that and what might be informing that. Crazy. Yeah. level, be mindful of that and what might be informing that. Crazy. So when did Hollywood start taking an interest in you?

Because I feel like you have been in the limelight forever. Oh, my goodness. Well, you know, being an immortal fairy, we've been here since the 40s. But no, it started for me around probably 18, most affirmatively. Between 16 and 18, I basically was just doing readings through word of mouth. And as I did that, word of mouth spread into Southern California, where people were really just more open-minded. In my little agricultural community, I mean, you had people who were open, but by nature, creative people tend to kind of, I think, believe in destiny more generally.

It's very interesting. And so Sarah Paulson called me up one day. From American Horror Story. American Horror Story. American Horror Story. Wow, I love her. My hand was shaking. I was like sweaty palmed. I didn't know what to do.

I like almost dropped the phone. I was so nervous. I didn't know she was a key player in any of this. She's amazing. And so she was my first technically official celebrity reading. And she asked if I had a message for Jessica. I was like, Jessica Lang? I did.

Did Jessica pass? I did not know. Oh, no. She's still with us. It was for her love life. I was like, God, I love her. Okay, gotcha, not know. Oh, no. She's still with us. Oh, okay. It was for her love life. I was like, God. Her love life has transitioned. I love her.

Okay. Gotcha. Gotcha. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Thankfully, she's very much still around. I was like, when did this happen? I know. She's an amazing woman, too.

Such. Oh, incredible. Yeah. King Kong. Yeah. I don't know. She was an icon. Yeah.

Always will be. Literally. Just fucking. So was Sarah Paulson, though, too. Oh, my God. To be able to play a role with two heads. Yeah. That's insane. Yeah,'s truly um so when did hollywood like come in besides after that so that that sarah paulson pretty much opened up the door for you just one thing led to

another eventually the e-network was interested because i was just this little kid basically who came from this little town and i had naturally just kind of worked with some celebrities and they thought okay if we're going to do a show with you, it has to be celebrity oriented because we're the E! Network, right? Yeah. The land of Kardashians. Yeah. But they put me through the ringer. I had to read like upwards over 20 either friends or family of various executives.

And they would test me. So they'd bring me in and they'd say, okay, you're going to read three people today. And we're not going to tell you who they are. And, you know, everyone knew depending on how that went went it was whether I got greenlit or not yeah and thankfully I was able to knock it out of the park every time that it was required do you ever get tired of people doubting you no it's it's fun kind of to be honest oh really yeah I like now everybody's gonna when when you know that you're real and when you know you've had real experiences there's a smugness you're like fucking game on because I know that what I've and when you know you've had real experiences, there's a smugness. You're like fucking game on.

Because I know that what I've done is real. Yeah. And other people may not believe it, but I know that there's more to life than what we see. I affirmatively can say through my experiences, there's more to this world than we can fully understand. And I'm thankful through this work to be able to demonstrate it. I have my own questions. I think it's important to be skeptical, to have doubts. And that's kind of how the truth rises to the top.

That's crazy. I feel like you're so full of love. There's been a couple of times that you've said things and it just makes me want to cry because you're just so like, everything you say is just so beautifully said. It's wild. Let's talk about the Alan Thicke interview. That is crazy that, you know, he came in as a skeptic. And what happened with that? It's for the people at home who don't know. That was a hard reading. You know, he came with his

wife, Tanya, who I've been able to make a friendship with since and we've been very close. But he was a total skeptic. You know, he came in and was kind of like laughing and jovial. And it didn't really take it very seriously. Now, look on the network we read over 200 celebrity clients. Some came in really enthusiastic, genuinely needing something. And then there were people who just wanted to sell their next project. And it wasn't that he fell into that second category, but he didn't know what to make of it. So as I connected with him, I brought through a relative of his who had died of a heart condition. And this was a heart condition that I felt very strongly he himself needed to keep in mind of. And as I relayed this, he kind of laughed it off.

I ended up being sent the unedited clip of me telling Alan this. And it went on for over two minutes of me just begging him to go see a doctor for his heart. He laughed it off. He said, thank you, Dr. Tyler. And then he tragically passed, you know, for those who know, about three months later of a heart problem. Did he never go to the doctor? Tanya, I'm pretty sure, drug him to, drugged him but dragged him dragged him to the doctor to get a checkup but it was one of those things where it was like a what they described like a widow maker where you know it's one of those situations where it would have required

further you know insights into being able to determine like a specialist so it was one of those cases where you know as a messenger it relayed the information um but it's difficult when when people at least don't fully listen do you sense any health problems in me oh no i feel all good okay good i mean stuff happens but i know yeah i would i would thousand percent oh my goodness so when did you meet your boyfriend yes well that happened let's see i was 21 yeah Yes. Well, that happened. Let's see. I was 21. Yeah. 28 now. And that happened.

His mom reached out, funny enough, for a reading way back in the day. Yeah. And he had reached out. And it was a really weird moment where when I saw his face, I knew without a doubt that that was the person I was supposed to be with. And it's kind of cliche. Oh, you felt the connection. No, I say that about Jay all the time.

Do you? I do. I tell everybody. I'm like, it was like our souls recognized each other. Would you describe it as love at first sight? Not love, but like familiar. Yeah. It was literally like familiar. Cause I feel like love is like to really fall in love with somebody, you have to spend time with them. You can fall in lust and be completely infatuated, but I just don't believe that you fall in love with somebody at first. I feel like you can be

head over heels infatuated and Twitter painted, you know, but that's the exact same feeling that I said I had with Jay. Wow, that's so beautiful. I think on some level the soul sometimes knows. Yeah, absolutely. And there's a deep compatibility there. So that's gone on now for seven years. We're going to get married soon. I wear this string. It's more of an engagement. When are you guys getting married? Do you have a date set? No, we don't have a date set. I was like, should we do Halloween? Should we do Halloween? Because that would be very on brand. But he's like, Tyler, we're not getting married do you have a date set no we don't have a date i was like should we do halloween should we do yeah because that would be very on brand but he's like tyler we're not getting married on halloween how does he feel about your psychic abilities he treats me just as tyler the person versus tyler the medium but they're so intersected that i mean we're doing

paranormal experiments every day like at night we read books to each other like two little old men oh we're like night owls So he really is so deeply compatible. But I think what makes us so good together is he sees me beyond what I have to offer. Right, absolutely. And I'm sure you feel the same way. It's like when someone really sees you. And this work reflects that everybody wants to be seen.

Everybody wants to be validated. Everybody wants to feel understood in some way. And I'm thankful I get that from my relationship. Are you always so positive? Do you ever have down moments? Oh, all the time. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Do you suffer from any like, depression, anxiety? Well, I've been diagnosed with OCD for probably over a decade now. And I do take medication for

it. We're at 20 milligrams Lexapro gang. You know, that's right. So yes, absolutely. And I think for those who relate with anxiety, it can be very difficult with intuition to tell the difference. And so in my own life, it's been a bit of a trial run on how to kind of determine what's intuitive and what's really just feelings. And feelings aren't facts, as they say. So it's a very interesting dichotomy. That's amazing. Feelings aren't facts. I need to remember that. I suffer from severe anxiety, so I get panic attacks all the time, but i've managed to get them under control in the past year but do you feel like with age you're being able to be able to decipher what is like a download or

what is like you're really in a serious situation or panic or your body's just in fight or flight you know i think it took time for that frontal lobe to develop and i hit about 25 and one day i woke up i was like what the hell am i so worried about i don't know what it is but i just got to a place where i felt i guess oriented you know i was kind of thrown in front of the wolves at 19 and everyone's opinions and mean things and all that and so it took time to kind of understand who i was despite what other people thought of who i was Does online bullying affect you in any way? You know, not as much as people probably wish. Yeah, good. I love that. Like I can genuinely read a comment about myself that's negative and be like, oh, okay. Yeah, I'm getting there too. I've gotten to that point too. And it's hard. I

mean, of course, you get 99 comments that one negative one will generally can stand out. But yeah, you get to a place where I think you realize and I've used this analogy before that like you can be the biggest, juiciest peach. peach yeah and there's going to be people who hate peaches and it's just part of life and i and i think it's when you're secure with yourself it's okay you know you can take yeah um differences of belief when things become hostile or threatening that's you know a different story yeah have you ever had anything that like has really scared the shit out of you? Like meeting somebody and seeing something or like, you know, just something that has just jarred your spirit? Yeah. I mean, there have been several, several moments.

I would say there was one reading I gave that was really a series of readings with a woman who she had terminal cancer. And a number of my clients I read for free who are kind of near the end of their life. And this lovely lady had married this man and he was married for the second time. His first wife had actually also died of terminal cancer. And my client who I'm talking to was alive at the time. She was facing terminal cancer herself. And the message there from her husband's ex-wife was,

you know, I'm still here. I guided you into my husband's life to look after him after me. And it was so sweet. But she always felt that that woman who had passed of cancer guided her into his life. And then it ended up my client died on the same day on the date crossover for his first wife and his second wife. I'm trying to remember now if it was like birthdays or death dates but it was the exact day um and it's so kind of clearly reflected in in hindsight that there was some divine connection yeah that they they very clearly were both meant to serve a purpose in his life and then pass on a date that was significant to both of them oh my goodness

coincidences like that you see after a while, you realize they're almost messages in and of themselves. Absolutely. What do you think happens to us after we die? Because do you get to see any of that? It's such a big question. And I always tell people, you know, I have my own requests that I want to ask. What's the reason? Why are we here? What's the purpose?

And as far as I can tell, when they communicate, they liken it to trying to explain arithmetic to a squirrel. And I'm just a squirrel, you know. And so there's kind of limitations in what humans can understand. But what I can say resoundingly is every person that's came through has acknowledged a continuation of consciousness, an expansion of consciousness, and more than anything, a deep sense of awareness of the ripple effect of how their actions and inactions affected the greater collective. And when people come through, we ask the question of, are they at peace? Do they find peace? I think they find peace through the acceptance of how they lived and how they died. And when they can get to that place,

you know, there is peace, ultimately. Crazy. Do you believe in past lives? And do you believe that you've been here like many lives? just as our kind of eternal nature would have chapters so whether we call them incarnations or different iterations of self it all kind of reflects that consciousness is one big thing kind of experiencing itself crazy i mean i know it sounds very woo but it's kind of the nature do you believe that like energy transfers yeah yeah so you don't believe that we ever just die and disappear like we're not just here to look. Because there's some people like, you know, atheists. Sure, materialists, yes. Well, yeah, they believe. I don't know what a materialist is.

What is that? Yeah, it's like a. Teach me something. So there are atheists, agnostics. And there's a lot of atheists are materialists. So they believe in just purely the material that when you die, that's it. It goes black. Right.

I feel like that's so hopeless. Some people find it comforting. And I will tell all I know. It seems weird me saying this as the devil's advocate here. But there is something to be said about the idea of comfort in there not being anything after for people who may not want to continue living. I mean, think of how hard life can be, right? For some people, the idea of eternity seems really stressful, even though I don't believe it is, you know, by nature, I think for some people,

it skeeves them out. They're not knowing the ambiguity yeah the what-ifs you know and they're not being able to really orient oneself in in eternity yeah you know and so some people just kind of shut it out by default because it's uncomfortable I don't know to me it's the opposite like I want to I want to picture like heavenly clouds the gate the pearly gates and like the streets of gold like that's you know, I want to picture that, that when we leave here, we're going somewhere to meet up with everybody else that has passed away, you know, in our life. Do you see all the members from your family who have passed away? Do they try to come and talk to you? It's kind of funny, not as much. And like my grandma being the one who kind of kicked off that first premonition, I very rarely hear from

her. So if anything, I think it's kind of comforting. I find it kind of an indication that wherever she is, the essence of her. Yeah. Is okay. Is at peace. She gave you your gift. Yeah. Pretty much.

If you think about it. It's not, you know, it was just kind of like, hey. You're right. This is what you're here to do, buddy. She was a telephone operator in life. You know, she'd connect calls for people. There's something kind of symbolically beautiful about that. That her last gift to me was to kind of try to connect with people. I love that. That is so amazing. All right. Well, let's, I had a couple more questions

for you. I'm just so fascinated with you. You graduated at 16. I did. Which is wild to me. Yes. graduated at 16 i did which is wild to me yes you strike me as like extremely intelligent too oh you're very sweet i i'm i i'm like what selectively intelligent so like i don't drive i got i have usually have to be intelligent to drive because half the time i'm not even paying attention in la traffic i think that definitely can be the case but no i was like velcroing my shoes up until age 13, like very much a rain man. Yeah. I was very much intelligent in some respects. Are you, and I mean this respectfully, are you on the spectrum at all? I mean, I honestly, probably.

Yeah. Yeah. Have you ever taken the autism test? I think I have. Haley, we got to send him the autism test. Send me the autism test. We're all on the spectrum. But I mean, we got stimming going on.

Yeah. I mean, I like, yeah, for sure. So for me, I think, you know, it's great to have conversations. Yeah. I'm surprised they have never tested you for that. What's so interesting is research being done at Stanford University about autism's relationship to psychic perceptions, kind of different ways of thinking. Yeah.

It's very fascinating. All the creative ways people can be. No, I just, whenever I heard you say that you had graduated at 16, I was like, this kid is fucking brilliant, dude. You're very sweet. No, I mean, it's, I mean, it's your life. It's your testimony. So, so sweet. I really just, for me, wanted to do as much good as I could with what I was given. You know, I didn't come from a lot financially. You know, my parents were very, are very salt of the earth folks. They ran a little business in our little town and I just feel so privileged to be able to be where I'm at in life I love that and I love that you just use this for good and you just try to spread goodness

everywhere because there is so much the world is lacking so much empathy and so much love and it's like when you see you speak it's always just so full of love thank you that means a lot I hope that people never get disenchanted with the world. I hope that the work always provides a sense of wonder for people. Wondering, you know, what do I believe? Why are we here? You know, anything that I can do to inspire people to ask further questions around their place in this world and what they can do about it. That's my purpose. Do people just corner you and hammer you with questions all the time?

Because I would. Sometimes, oh my goodness. Tyler, I need to ask you a question. There was an instance in Ikea back in the day when I first started and a girl was like, should I break up with my boyfriend? And I'm like, did you have a fight last night? Probably not that psychic, right?

To determine if she's asking, but I got some impressions and I was like, oh no, it's not looking hot. And then I was like, Tyler, don't do that in Ikea. Oh, I love it though. I was like, the boyfriend's gonna come find me now. Oh, did she break up with him? I don't know, I never heard back, but I mean, I would assume. So I'm very selective with random impressions.

Gotcha. Yeah. You've learned to probably bite your tongue because some people want to accept it and some people don't. Totally. I always joke the love life is the hardest area to give advice on in the 200 celebrities who sat with. It's emotional.

It is. And people are going to do what they want to do anyway. Yeah. With their love life. It's like asking for advice. We generally often already are going to do what they want to do anyway yeah with their love life it's like asking for advice we generally often already know what to do we're just looking for kind of being pulled in one direction or the other yeah but like amber rose i sat with him i was like don't date a rapper don't date a rapper it's not gonna end well then she goes and dates a rapper so yeah had a kid with had two kids right right and and that is totally you know personal choice but it's

just funny you know when people are like tell me what you get and i'm like you're not gonna follow it anyway yeah what do you do for fun what does a psychic medium do for fun oh my goodness um well you know i just live a very quiet sedate life with my partner we read books to each other at night i make stained glass windows oh i love stained glass windows i'd love to make you one oh my god yeah i'd be fabulous't that be cool? Yeah. That'd be fabulous. I would love that. Do I not? I have stained glass windows tattooed on me. Oh, that's amazing. Yeah.

Yeah. They're not hard to install. Oh, my God. Yeah. We're building a new studio for the new Dunblan studio. I would love to have you do a stained glass window. That would be so cool. I'll pay you for it.

How do you make a fucking stained glass window? It's a process, but not as much as you would think. You basically buy the glass in advance. It's all colored, pre-colored. And you cut it out. And then you basically foil it and then you just solder it together do you want me to get you a napkin you're sweating i'm sweating you know what is something coming through do we need to talk about stuff always but no it's all good all positive and we can talk about intuitive stuff too

if you'd like yeah i would love to hammer away anything comes in yeah sorry my goodness you want some water uh do you have a pen and paper by chance um or like a piece of paper do we have a pen and paper i have all this stuff coming in yeah all good are you all right now's a good time to to uh scribble really quickly just see if something pops in i start sweating it's always indication oh you poor baby oh it's good that's awesome though because it kind of like warns you like you know hey incoming exactly literally oh yeah no it's very helpful

now aww thank you so much I appreciate it thank you can we have the book oh I don't want to move sorry about that no you're good baby are you sure yeah you can move it baby so when stuff starts downloading like that and you

start getting sweaty does it feel like a panic attack is coming on or how does it feel oh perfect oh thank you so much thank you mimi thank you for me sorry we'll send her telepathic yeah come back come back come back um does it feel like a panic attack coming on how does it feel whenever downloads start coming in the way i would describe is it feels like the peripheral kind of starts going out on some level. So, like, you know, when you just kind of, like, go about your day, it almost feels like things start tuning in. Okay. In a way that's very visceral, visual. Yeah, like tunnel vision.

But there's even kind of an internal sensation of, like, a fullness. As weird as that sounds. Wow. And it's not indigestion. I've learned to kind of navigate it and see what comes in. So I'll just kind of really, like really quickly what just pops through there. Okay.

There, there. All right. What an amazing gift. Oh, you're so sweet. It's wild. Let's see what pops in there because mom's side of family hits me much more than dad's side of family,

which is good to keep in mind. And on that side of family, this is good to keep in mind. And on that side of family, this is good to keep in mind when we talk about their mom's side, females who've passed. And then I want to talk about this character. I got this lady

I want to bring up. She's cute. I hope it's not my fucking mother. Let me look and see. This is coming across as funny. Oh, Vanessa, don't start your shit with me, lady. Give me one sec. Let me just look here and see. I love this. Because I have to talk about a joke of not,

when people refuse oxygen or don't want to use oxygen because they don't like the way it makes them look, there's a funniness of this of, I'm going to do it. I'm going to do my own thing. Don't tell me what to do. Oh, my God. And a funniness that comes through of, I'm going to live the way I want to live. I'm going to die the. I'm going to do my own thing. Don't tell me what to do. Oh, my God. And a funniness that comes through of I'm going to live the way I want to live. I'm going to die the way I want to die.

Oh, my gosh. It's very much that kind of attitude in some capacity, which is good to kind of keep in mind. Do you know of anything about the oxygen rejection? That's my mom. Okay. We're taking that a step further. There's an acknowledgment around living family currently. There's an acknowledgment around some health-related stuff.

That's just kind of good to keep in mind. Family members, current people, this is good to consider. Remember that I'm saying this. There's some acknowledgement around a Frank that comes through. Just remember that I'm saying that. There's some significance. Usually who they are, who they're with, or somebody. But there is an acknowledgement

there. Is your dad still with us? He is, but he has terminal cancer. He's dying. I'm so sorry. I have to highlight in the way this comes through, I'm seeing symbology around filtration. Usually filtration revolves around fluid, the body's ability to kind of reduce or let go of fluids. And there's a susceptibility to fluid buildup.

What does come through is kind of interesting is an acknowledgment of a problem starting lower and then kind of going gradually higher. So this is just kind of good to keep in mind when we talk about overall proclivities to things, something starting lower, kind of going higher or kind of going gradually up. For him, just really keeping in mind like filtration, the body's ability to get rid of toxins, I keep seeing like things building up and they usually can be an indication of organ related issues. Largely just keeping in mind for him false susceptibilities to injuries like tripping, falling out of bed, like that kind of thing pops in. And just good to keep that in mind. There's an acknowledgement around. Let me look there. You have some people who are not family

who pop through. What up homies? It's probably some of the homies that have passed over. I think so. I see some symbology around marriage, union, joy, happy for you. The way I would word this, if there's anybody who you feel has passed who loved you a hell of a lot and maybe could have seen a romantic future, but it wasn't the right time or the right place, just remember that I'm saying this. Probably my ex, Tony. I think that guy wants you to know how proud of you he is

and that he, when he comes across, acknowledges an awareness and existence in your relationship and that you deserved more than he was able to give at that time. And that aspect seems to pop in there is um an acknowledgement around your mom's situation with this this woman doesn't ever stop talking fascinating thing even in her death all she does is talk it's weird does she have her little she's bringing me into this one thing she's like she's got her little domain her area this is my area let me figure this out really quick yeah she's listen she is a fucking lunatic tyler she's a very very strong energy i just want to figure out what this is because there's one thing that

pops in there's acknowledgement around like forgiveness there's a very strong emphasis on an awareness of how you've broken cycles or that you've been able to put a stop to things so i see my symbol for basically like a chain coming unlinked. And that's always a good sign. But that also in the way this is coming through, what is this other thing? Just remember that I'm saying this. There's an acknowledgement around applying forgiveness,

doing your own thing. There's a feeling of you creating your own family, your own family unit, separate from other family, separate from other biological family. And they're me acknowledge um it's okay to say no i keep getting this feeling of a money related thing of someone expecting or that it should be owed to me that i you have to help me because i am who i am how dare you not help me she's talking about my sister that situation in the way that this comes across there's a weirdness because and i have to be clear with this across there's a weirdness because and i

have to be clear with this like there's an acknowledgement of narcissism that comes through there and if someone has said that this person is a narcissist she's a bad way or deals with narcissistic personality disorder just a way of kind of trying to like acknowledge that area but more largely than that it's not even about money so keep this in mind things that don't even have monetary value but are just hurtful there's an aspect there that comes through of her selfishness entitlement like that aspect in the way this comes through though they show this like wiping that up all clean and the way this comes through it's a way of acknowledging like when we set boundaries with people abiding by those boundaries yeah and not letting

people kind of weasel their way back in some respects um there's definitely an emphasis on that one there are a couple weirder things that pop in with this um related to your mom this is just good to keep in mind she might send wild animals or strange animals to your house um and it's like but tell her send me a possum and a crow i love it i love it um but there's a funniness around like a petting zoo, but more like surprise. And then there is an acknowledgement around what looks like a big brother thing. But this is weird. Let me figure out what this is.

I've sat with Ross Matthews. I saw like big brother stuff. Sometimes it can relate to like potential work someday and being able to bring awareness like fostering foster children helping underprivileged children i don't know why but there is an aspect of like being able to help in a larger capacity in an institutional way um for young underprivileged kids who are like at that transitionary stage between childhood and adulthood so there could be some opportunities there to kind of further that and that looks really really positive um yeah yeah you're pretty spot on with mom's thing uh were people do you know of people

not being able to be there when mom passed you know if anybody yes nobody was there she passed in nashville with gotcha uh i wasn't with her because i was mad at her do you know by chance if somebody was not allowed to a funeral or if somebody was told to kindly like not attend? Yeah, my sister. Okay. Wicked witch of the West. I'm so sorry. I just need to make it clear in the way this comes through.

There's a sense of I see now how things were and awareness of things much more there than she may have had here. And therefore an accountability for her actions. There's an aspect there when she talks about mental health. She feels like you were a hell of a lot stronger than her in some respects. It's going to sound strange, but she's showing me the inversion of mother and daughter, daughter and mother. So it's almost like as weird as this sounds, she was like the daughter's soul, and you were like the mother's soul.

That makes me want to cry. And you've always been a stabilizing force in the lives of people around you. But there's a sense of, I'm sorry, I couldn't give you what you fully deserved. And then that comes in. Thank you, Tyler. Yeah. You made me cry. Good.

You've handled everything so beautifully. You've been able to alchemize what you've gone through and your trauma. And you've been able to not perpetuate that onto other people i mean what a gift to be able to have the buck stop at you yeah you know that's a gift i appreciate thank you for all that that was oh of course wild my goodness you were very spot on with my dad my dad actually has tubes that are in his lungs right now because he can't drain the lungs and my dad actually has tubes that are in his lungs right now because he can't drain the lungs my dad literally has days left you know maybe if anything weeks um i've inherited i always say i've inherited custody of both of my parents in their deaths oh gosh what a burden actually it was it's their gift to me because i didn't have a relationship with my mom. I didn't meet my mom until I was 36.

And then I saw her for the second time in my entire life with Jay at one of his concerts. And then I inherited custody of her a couple years later. And she was in Nashville for about six months. Then she passed away. I was working through my resentment with her because she was so childlike. It used to piss me off so much. I'd be like, get the fuck up.

You know, in the oxygen thing. Yeah. She always fucking had this oxygen tube on and it was she drove me fucking crazy. She didn't appreciate anything I did for her, you know. But so hearing that just like, you know, really warms my heart because I haven't since she passed. I haven't. The first week she passed, I got signs from her all the time and felt her so much and then after that i haven't really gotten anything from her so i was like oh she's probably mad at me

my sister spot on as soon as my mom died she wanted she's like i want what mom left and i'm like she died with her fucking clothes on you know and? And she came to Nashville, took the outfit off of my mom while she was in the morgue, took her rings off her fingers and like stole from the Airbnb that I had her in. Like I could sit here for hours and talk about it. But I just wanted to confirm what you were saying was all 100% dead on. Is that not crazy? Brutal. Oh, I know.

Gosh. We're all bawling. It's just, you know, it's a lot there. Yeah, I know. We could go on for hours. No, no, no. But I truly think when it comes to that, I mean, it's a testament to your strength and what you've been able to do with your life. I love that.

And being able to make the world a better place despite the darkness that you've had to go through. Yeah. And in many ways, it's so much more than things. You know, we talk about how sometimes death brings out the worst in people. Yeah. And it can. Absolutely. These references, it's interesting.

Just kind of put an emphasis on equity. And I'm just going to say this out loud. You can say it. No, you're fine. If your sister, like, got more preferential treatment, or if there was a situation where basically the person who was least deserving got a less hard time there's kind of a way that this comes through of acknowledging sister and like i feel like a ton got put on you and then there's an acknowledgement of in some ways things not being as hard for her right and

kind of an interesting sense of equity equity equity. But the way I would word this is like, I don't feel like mom maybe always would hold sister to the same standard she would hold you as an adult. So like if her bar is a lot lower, it's like we shouldn't expect, I'm trying to think how to word this. Yeah, no, I get it.

That's how it is with both my sisters. It's frustrating in the way this comes through of you being held to a different standard than a sibling would be held. Absolutely. Both my sisters got away with murder and I was like the workhorse of the family. You good? Would you like some water?

Yes. All good. We have a bottled water in my purse if you want it. Thank you. I'm all good. Okay. Good. All good.

Now I feel good. Yay. Awesome. You feel good? Yeah. So when those come through, is it like static in your brain? It's a lot. A lot going on.

Because I was watching you, yeah. And so, you know, what I find is there's nuance. I have to be able to kind of articulate the nuanced dynamics of what comes through, like, in a family and articulate in a way that makes sense. So when I do a reading, you know, I'll see a lot of symbols sometimes, like a chain breaking. Right. And that's my symbol for, okay, you know, breaking a chain, ending a cycle. And that's something that I've learned over years of doing this work. You know, if I see this, it means that.

So it's kind of like doing math problems in my head without scratch paper. I picture your brain being like, have you seen that episode in, or not that episode, that movie Beetlejuice and they have the waiting room where everybody's waiting and the one dude's got the ticket and it's like that loud. It's like, do spirits literally just flood you because they or do it that always have to pertain to that person? It can definitely flood in. And in those cases, I just kind of do my best to discern between who's coming through for what and what's coming through for who.

That's wild. But it's really a process. That's where I'd say the hardest part of my job is, is discerning what is for who. Have you ever had voices speak out of you? Like out of me? Yeah. Oh, that would be true. Has anybody ever been able to take possession ever had voices speak out of you? Like out of me? Yeah. Like,

has anybody ever been able to like take possession of your body and speak for you? No, but that is a type of physical mediumship that, you know, there is some evidence seems to exist. Yeah. The work of Stuart Alexander,

a UK medium and yeah, number of cases where it seems to be possible. But in my case, it's a lot less dramatic. Yeah. Except I just sweat a lot. No, you're good.

How do you ground yourself and how do you shake other people's energy off of you because i would feel like that would be heavy to carry that around all the time you know i think focusing on what's given versus what the person has had taken away helps and when i'm able to meet with somebody and lighten their load in any capacity when i go home you know that's more what I put an emphasis on, not necessarily the heavy stuff that the relief came from. So it's just kind of a matter of focus. I think, I'm sure therapists probably relate to it, or even interviewers, right? You can kind of focus on how draining the day was,

or you can focus on what you got out of it. Absolutely. That's amazing. Well, do you wanna take some questions from the major ones? Oh, yes, I'd love to. We'll call Daddy really quick, because he's so excited. That is so sweet.

He's actually already FaceTimed me. I love it. Shocking. He's in the studio, so if he doesn't answer right now, he'll call me right back. No worries. And also, good to keep in mind, anybody in this room, information sometimes can come through. So if anything I said pertains to any of y'all, just good to keep in mind. Anybody got a Frank?

If anybody's got a Frank in the building. Who's got a Frank? Who's a Frank? Frank is one of my ex-boyfriends but he's still alive he's still with us yeah might have been one of a couple situations if i was curious about the next thing because it kind of came in oh tony how did frank fall in the lineup i don't know that i don't know the the synchronicity got it i got that word from you um of that but Tony, so my ex, I was actually pregnant with his child. I lost his baby, but we were young, young, young, young. But when I ran away from home, he was my boyfriend and my protector,

and he actually always loved me. And we just, oh, my gosh, okay, so I know how it came into play. Oh, my God, it just hit me right now. Jay's beeping in right now but when tony was dying my i was with frankie and we went to his bedside and i could see tony i knew he was already dead hold on i'll tell you the story in a second yep that's crazy hey baby sorry i'm so excited i dropped my hello jelly roll Sorry, I'm so excited.

I dropped my... Hello, Jelly Roll. Put it back on him. Thank you so much. You're such a fan, dude. My wife's probably done 300 podcasts. I've probably been excited for five. Oh, thank you so much. I appreciate it.

So fired up about this, man. I'm so glad y'all are together. Thank you for making the time. Oh, thank you. I so appreciate it. She's so lovely, and you were doing so much amazing work. I am so excited. Man, thank you, man.

I really appreciate it, dude. That's cool as hell. Yes. He just made me cry. He just did a reading. He got a download in the middle of our interview. I mean, he knew everything about Bill, and you know who came through? Good old Vanessa.

Really? Yeah, and one of my ex-boyfriends, one of my ex-boyfriends, Tony, came through. It was hilarious. Did Grace make an appearance? She did not, and that makes me sad, but it's okay. I love you. I love you too, baby.

Good to see you, Jolly Roll. I love you, Tyler. Thank you. I love you, my man. He doesn't even want to talk to me. He's like, I love you, Tyler. I so appreciate it. Whatever, back to Tyler. We'll connect. I love you, man. He doesn't even want to talk to me. He's like, I love you, Tyler. I so appreciate it. Whatever.

Back to Tyler. We'll connect. I love it. I'm going to have Tyler do readings for us. Hang out, Tyler. Yeah. I'm going to have Tyler do readings for us so we can talk to Buddy and stuff. I trust Tyler more than anybody.

Oh, my God. I think I'll actually get the real. He just had me in tears. It was crazy. Thank you. I love you, baby. I love you, too. I love you, too. So cute.

Adorable. I know, isn't he? He's my big old squish. He's my little teddy bear. But yeah, so that's how that. So the last, when he, my ex had smoked, what is that fake weed called? Oh, spice. Spice.

Yeah. And it sent him into cardiac arrest and he died. Oh my God, that can happen. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, so that's why don't, don't smoke that shit guys. Um, and I remember we went to the, he didn't die automatically, but he went into a coma. He had a heart attack, went into a coma and I went to go see him. And I remember I held his hand and when I was holding his hand, I could see him standing, looking at me in the corner of the room. And I even looked at my, at my ex Frankie at the time.

And I was like, he's dead. I was like, he's not coming back. He's in the middle. He's in the corner of the room right now looking at us. And Frankie was just like, I'm so tired of you,

bitch. Cause I would, I always came up, you know, like I predicted his, the mother of his child died three. I had a dream, woke up,

bawling my eyes out, predicted the child of his mom had passed away. She was a healthy 25-year-old woman, and three months later she died. So anytime I would say stuff like that to him, he would get freaked out. Not again. Yeah. That's crazy that he acknowledged Frankie, too. That's so crazy.

That, weirdly enough, is the strongest thing of our whole reading that's came through for me. The other stuff's kind of more incidental, but it's really interesting how the people we meet i think do inform our paths and yeah whether we know them you know for a moment or a lifetime there's there's a reason to the season yeah and they kind of get us to where we're going so wild i love what you do tyler and i definitely want to get uh you and jay together because he i would love for you to talk to his dad he is still trying to get over his dad's death you know and he just loves his dad so much. So I think that you guys would have a really good session together. Absolutely. Yes. When there's a need, it tends to do the most. Yeah, absolutely. Why don't you tell people about that? It's an app you have that

you do readings on. I do. So it's Mark Cuban's app, technically. It's called Fireside. And it's, I have a membership service called The Collective on it. And I meet with people every week and we do private reading giveaways, group readings. And so for those of you interested, you can check it out. It's like $12 a month. It's like two coffees. No, dude. But for your knowledge and your time, $12 a month is nothing.

I mean, what you just came through with, I wasn't, I believed everything. But what you just came through with was literally everything I've been through. And, you know, for you to be so spot on and not even know anything like that, like that was wild. Does it ever get exhausting? Do you ever just not want to do this? There's days where, you know, like you just don't, you know, you just maybe have a flu or you don't want to go to work or you feel kind of tired. It's like I don't want to read when I have the flu. Yeah, yeah.

There are times where I have to take a break if the body's not doing well. But it's like anything. You kind of make yourself do it and then there's something good that comes from it. Have you ever had a reading make you physically ill? Yeah, especially early in my teen years. I was kind of doing readings frequently. I had an instance I was almost hospitalized. I had a kidney, a guy who died of kidney failure come through and my lower back started hurting. And there was an instance where my throat started closing. I thought I was having an anaphylactic reaction. Oh, no. And the person had passed of throat related issues. But it doesn't really come through that way anymore. Yeah, let's circle back to the brain surgery that you were told that you had told me about what happened with that. I was wild. I just

had headaches for about three weeks. And I was 18. And I looked over at my mom one day and I said, Mom, I think I have water on my brain my brain's swelling and she was like okay drama queen what a weird thing to say right and then I was hospitalized I started showing stroke symptoms at a trans ischemic attack that got me to the hospital and then they did a brain scan where they saw that I had a cyst oh my gosh kind of in the very back and it was obstructing fluid. And so my brain was swelling for about a week. And I got into emergency surgery and got aspirated, but they were never able to remove it completely. And they don't know what caused that?

It was congenital. For me, it was very synchronistic, the timing of being 18 and just starting my life and then having to kind of face death. Yeah. And know that it's still there, you know, and at any moment could flare up. Do you feel like that made you more spiritual, maybe more in tune? Yeah, just a lot more present, you know, you realize with the fragility of health,

how one day you're good and then the next day it can be not so good. I'm watching that with my dad right now. It's like one minute he's great, and then the next minute he's like, they told us there's nothing more they can do for him. And you're like, what are you talking about? I thought his labs were getting better, you know?

It's like a pendulum. No, it's crazy. Because it can be so good one day and the next day it's like on death's door. So it's frustrating to watch, I'm sure. I try to tell everybody that health is wealth. You know, like it doesn't matter how much money you have. It doesn't matter how famous you are. It doesn't matter anything.

If you don't have health, that there's nothing, you know know like it's so important to just take care of your body take care of your soul take care of trauma that you've been through you know just take care of it all because it if not it literally comes out in other ways in your life it always catches up with us in one way or another it's so true for sure For sure. Yeah. Do you drink? I don't. I smoke weed. Yeah, okay. So I'm not completely boring, but that's the cough.

No, I'm straight edge. I don't do, I'm sober now, but yeah. No, I love that about you. He said, no, I smoke weed. I smoke weed,

but beyond that, yeah. I don't know, alcohol, I think I come from a family where there's some issues with that on my dad's side. Yeah.

And I just like the smell of it. It kind of turned me off. Yeah. Yeah, I never got to really explore that. And never got into alcohol or anything like that? No, yeah. Yeah, alcohol. The smell of alcohol would kind of trick me.

Oh, the smell of alcohol. Gotcha. Gotcha. So sorry. It was tricky, but you find ways to unwind. If you guys want to talk to Tyler, please sign up on the collective because he's the real deal and he's worth it. Thank you, buddy. Yeah, absolutely.

So do we have some Zoomers that want to ask? Zoomers Patreon. Yeah. So my Patreon gang gang. We love you guys so much. We have 140,000 members over there. Congratulations. I know.

It's crazy. So we have the highest tier is called the main attraction. And what we did was we picked five of the highest tier to be able to come and ask you a couple questions. And there's five of them. So they'll ask you the questions. Awesome. We'll see what they say. We'll let you do it.

Oh, really? Uh-oh. It's all the energy in the room. Oh, no. What do we do? We're just going to blow on it. Okay. Well, so Tyler her while her phone tries

to turn on that is crazy i've never seen your phone do that if we all blow in your direction what's the weirdest thing that's ever happened to you have you ever had that happen a diaper bag flew off when i was reading kenya moore i was sitting with her in a in a shop in atlanta and she was pregnant yeah and the baby the diaper bag behind her flew off on camera as if it had like a string attached. It was insane. And that was one of the weirdest moments. But yeah, we've had like light bulbs burst. Wow. Things like Mike's die is pretty standard, but I don't know. There's something to, I'm not saying that's what that is, but it definitely occurs. Everywhere we go, lights flicker or lights go off in any house that I'm in.

It drives me fucking crazy. That's fascinating. Hello. Hello. I'm like the worst phone sex operator ever. Oh my God. That would be hot though. Like, hello.

I'm here to read you. You're calling to get your tiddly winks. And I'm here to tell you about if he was a phone sex operator. And I'm here to tell you about past loved ones who passed on let me read your butt cheek yeah right i love that yeah that's actually a thing a form of divination i'm not even kidding that is a sylvester stallone's mother was a butt cheek reader and you can google it wait a second google it hold on let me take this off i gotta hold on yeah tell me this again sylvester stallone his mother read red butt. Red butt cheeks. The hole or the cheek?

It was the cheeks. He was a cheek reader. I knew you had a fashion. That's what my gift is supposed to be. Yeah. I'm supposed to be a butt cheek reader. I'm obsessed with buttholes. The cheeks or the hole?

The hole. The hole setup. Got it. The hole. Cash and prizes. Got it. Tyler, you are a funny dude. love it that is so funny okay i just learned about rumpology so what how what is she reading so i guess it's the curvature it's probably

similar to uh frenetics or whatever that's called okay you know but she's like reads the curvature of the butt i don't know i'm gonna study thisBL, I feel like, would throw that off. Like, if someone got one. Did you make a trip to Florida? Did you go to Miami? Hi, guys. Can they see us? Can you guys see us? I can't hear in the headphones.

Okay, they can't see. This is crazy. Tyler, you're making everything go haywire. I've been doing some physical experiments lately with trying to alter lights and things like this in my free time. So I do wonder sometimes. You're like a fucking like a new age wizard. Literally. It's the fairy.

It's the glitter out of the butt. The butthole. Specifically. Both? Both now? Both of your phones? Okay, so Tyler just did a reading on me, guys. And Mimi's phones are going haywire.

Like, they both shut off. One overheated. The other one, like, it won't open anything. Like, we've never had problems like this. So just stand by. We're going to fix this. Tyler, thank you for being so patient, baby. He's like, I'm used to this, bitch.

It's on brand everywhere I go. Does this happen everywhere you go, literally? Not literally, but sometimes. Sometimes. It really does, actually. There's been really genuinely anomalous phenomena that has happened that is electrical. Like things that even text can't explain. Yeah.

So I had a shaman come on the podcast when I first started. Wow. And the cameras would like reset. All of them stopped and then just read this like single code. Like 99999 like went across it. It was crazy. Wow. Yeah.

Very interesting. Rumpology. Rumpology. What a99. Like when I cross it, it was crazy. Wow. Yeah. Very interesting. Rumpology. Rumpology. What a career. I can't stop thinking about it. Imagine writing that on your taxes at the end of the year. I mean, like how much does that pay? I need to know.

I would say an arm and a leg, but probably a little more south. A torso. Torso, yeah. Lord. I love that. Have you ever thought about doing stand-up comedy? Oh, comedianship. that. Have you ever thought about doing stand-up comedy? Oh, comedianship. Dude.

Can you imagine? That would be epic. That'd be Tyler Perry. No, that pun, oh God. No, but yes. That would be. Hello. Yay.

Can you guys see us? Okay. Okay, so what was your name, baby? The one in the purple. My name is Rachel. hi rachel and then sierra correct hi thank you guys for doing this i really appreciate it and thank you guys for being patreon members thank you for having us i appreciate i appreciate you so much and then this is tyler i'm like oh it's good to see you both thank you for joining. It's good to see you both.

Thank you for joining us. It's good to see you. I love it. We'll do, I guess, one question at a time. Yeah, one question at a time. You both could probably shout your questions at the same time, but it would be less effective. So we'll start with, yeah, you. The one in the purple.

Yes. Okay, so my question was, after you pass away, how long does it take for your body to realize that you're passed? And how long does it take for your soul to, like, notice that you've passed, you know? Like, get used to being dead, I guess. Passed, right. Yeah, that new state. It's a fascinating question. Thank you for asking it. You know, there's been a lot of research done in hospice in this area. And so when you look at cases of people who are terminally ill, very often you kind of actually see a gradual process where

it seems that the soul kind of gradually leaves the body. We think of death oftentimes as an instantaneous thing. And I've kind of learned that in a lot of cases, it's gradual. It's a process in which our energy kind of leaves, is maybe depleted in this realm, but then exists in another. And then you have cases that are a little bit quicker and those differ. But somebody can come through the same day that they pass and then there are some situations where people won't hear from anyone for months or even years after.

And it doesn't mean they don't like us or that they're not interested in connecting. There's just logistically, I think, certain variables that kind of limit certain aspects. Yeah, I think I just feel that way because my granny passed away when I was 10 and I'm 30 now and I haven't had a connection with her. I don't know if it's because I didn't go to her funeral or, you know, she like knew or I don't know if it's because I didn't go to her funeral or, you know, you know, that's like new or I don't know. Like, yeah, my dad kept it from me. So I didn't know

she passed away until a couple weeks later. Yeah. You know, they tend, I believe, to really process those human emotions, that ego, you know, the kind of defense mechanisms we have to navigate our earthly lives. They really process those. And through introspection, they let them go. I very rarely have people come through with any form of anger or any sense of, you know, why didn't you do X, Y, or Z? They seem to really get the bigger picture perspective. And that is very eye-opening for them. And they really seem to see that it's more about the connection and the love that we

left behind than what we didn't do or what we could have done. And then that is easy for them to say harder for us to integrate thank you thank you so much for your question baby and thank you again for being a patreon member i appreciate you i love it and sierra what was your question baby um my question was can you channel like your own lost loved ones um and like do you just hear people literally all day every day um and then kind of off of that too like can you turn like the bad spirits kind of like say no like i don't want you to come in and only like have good vibes absolutely so to answer that I would say for me, most of my loved ones don't really make a connection.

And I would attribute that surprisingly for a lot of people when I say that to really just the fact that there isn't a need. You know, I was very close with my grandma and she passed when I was 10. And I really very seldomly connect with her. And I'm 28. If anything, I view that lack of reaching out

as actually an indicator that she's where she's meant to be, that wherever she is, she knows we're going to all reunite at some point in the grand picture. And there isn't really a strong message. As far as discernment goes, I've lived my life in such a way where I have certain practices. I'm big on prayer, on meditation, on kind of doing things that orient us fully in the present moment. And in doing so, you know, you can really set an intention and learn how to navigate those kind of more subtle boundaries. So in the thousands of readings that I've done, there's only been a handful of times where I've ever been frightened, or I've ever felt something that might be negative. And I attribute

that to, you know, some divine protection that I think we all have access to. And I think people underestimate how much power they have in what they let in. You know, you can still have a relationship with your loved ones who've passed and not be afraid, you know, that they are ghosts that go bump in the night. These are our parents. These are our siblings.

These are our grandparents. And we owe it to them to remember them as such. I love that. Thank you, Sierra. Thank you for your question, babe. And thank you for being a Patreon member. I really appreciate you too, that. Thank you, Sierra. Thank you for your question, babe. And thank you for being a Patreon member. I really appreciate you too, baby.

Thank you. Thank you. I love you and Jelly and Tyler. Thank you guys. Thank you so much. Thank you. Love you guys. We'll see you guys later.

Much love. Thank you. Bye guys. See you later. Aw, you're so sweet. I love that. Thank you for answering that.

Oh, that's so, so sweet. That was a weird look. Look at the screen. Aw, they're so sweet. I love that. Thank you for answering that. Oh, that's so sweet. That was a weird look. Look at the screen. Dude, everything is just true. That's funny.

I love it. The fact that both of my, that one overheated and this one will not open the app store whatsoever. That's weird. I didn't want to do anything.

That's crazy. Well, hopefully when I leave, it'll go back to normal. Aww. That's crazy. That's crazy because for the first time, I'm not hot in here, and normally I'm always hot in here. When he was reading, I was getting shivers, like cold, like shaking. Some people will get

that. Yeah. Even people who enter into the state of doing readings for other people sometimes get real chilly. Tyler, I really appreciate you. I want to ask you one more question. Do you believe in spirit guides and do you connect to spirit guides? Yeah. You know, I really do. I believe in unseen forces of support. Right. And that might sound kind of naive or like overtly optimistic, but I truly believe that we never truly walk alone. Yeah. I believe that we are really an amalgamation of everyone who has ever shown us love. And whether they are still with us in the physical realm or whether they pass, I think there's something to be said about being able to tap into that esteem that those who love us unconditionally give.

And for me, a lot of those people are departed. So I kind of call upon that when I go on stage and I'm nervous and I'm standing in front of 3,000 people. I say, come join me. Come with me, Grandma. Come with me, Terry, my childhood friend. Join me. Let's do this together.

And when you can even tell yourself that, think of the people you've loved and lost. Invite them into your lived experiences, and you will realize that you go in with more power you go in really knowing you're not alone and it can be beautiful did you lose um a childhood friend i did yes my friend terry he had brain cancer oh and um that was such a weird moment because he died around 18 and around 18 is when i had my brain cyst you know happen and initially when that occurred they thought that it could have been a malignant brain tumor

so I watched my friend die of cancer and Then it within months of his passing was facing the potential that I could go down the same path and thank God I didn't but It was really cathartic. Did you ever get a feeling with Terry that he something was wrong? Did you tell him I had to distance myself from him because I did not have the maturity To process the fact that he was gonna die and at the time you know he was giving the all clear but i knew in my soul that he wouldn't get to live a full life and so he reached out to me towards the end of his life and wanted to connect and i said yes we'll meet up soon i can't wait to see you and then he died oh so i never got the chance so i I hate that. But you know, things go as they go. Yeah,

absolutely. For sure. Was there anything you want to tell anybody at home and leave it leave the audience? I'm sure they're all listening to this podcast. Just like, holy shit. Whether people believe in mediums or not, I understand. And I encourage people to just try to live a life where they prevent future regret. Live a life where you make sure nothing goes unsaid. Do everything in the best of your ability to tell people while we have them that we love them and give people the flowers while they're still here. Don't wait for them to die. I swear to God, you just read my mind.

I was thinking that in my head. I swear to God, that's crazy. Tyler, why don't you tell everybody where they can find you, like your socials and stuff like that. And shout out the the collective one more time that's right collective over on fireside y'all can check out but Tyler Henry medium is where I'm at on Instagram it's kind of like the only one that I do a whole lot but we got TikTok I guess
