Bye. Hello and welcome to Spiritually Speaking. I should have got you to do the intro. Shall I do it with... Do you know what? I've always wanted to do the intro. I feel like I could do it. So shall I do it? Hello and welcome to Spiritually Speaking with me Jess.

And with me Jess. And with me Sam. There we go. Sam's losing her voice as you can all tell. Yes, I am here though and I am raring to go, but my voice is just not on the same wavelength right now. You've been through it. It's been a bit of a crazy few weeks, hasn't it? I've had a very fucking hard few weeks.

Yeah, I won't lie. It has been a bit of a crazy few weeks, hasn't it? I've had a very fucking hard few weeks, yeah, I won't lie. It has been very intense, but I'm very glad to be sat here today and not at home, I'll be honest. A bit of freedom, babes. Yeah, definitely, yeah, absolutely. Yeah, the girls have been, so when we last recorded, it was just before the girls' birthday

and basically they got sick just before their birthday, but only like a little bit, not enough to ruin their birthday, which was good. But then just after their birthday, it got so bad. And it was so intense having two sick babies, which then in turn made me sick. And I have been sick since. I've honestly been sick for like over 10 days now. I'm trying not to swear. It's ridiculous. And it's really

annoying. And I'm actually going to the doctors today, which I never do for something like this, like a cold, but something needs to happen to get rid of this because this is a long time. Oh, babes, that's not good. There was a bit of that going around when I was home at Christmas. Luckily, I missed it. But a lot of people were quite poorly

with colds and flu type things. Yeah, yeah, no, it's lingering, that's for sure. But I actually do think it also lingers, because I can't actually properly rest to get rid of it. Yeah, well that's it, isn't it? So rest to get rid of it. Yeah. Well that's the- So it's probably part of that as well. But anyway, it is what it is.

How was their party? So it was lovely. It was really, really nice. We just did something in the garden with like close friends and family. Obviously I had my mom and dad here, my sister, her husband and her baby, which was just so nice. Really, really special.

It was a bit stressful in terms of setting it up and everything like that. But it was like in the setup, it started raining for like five minutes, didn't rain for long, 10 minutes max, like really didn't rain for long, but that was not expected. And everything was outside and it was like, shit, move everything in. And you know, like just a bit intense and I got a bit stressed, but then in the end, everything was fine. And he's amazing in those situations. He's one of them people that just stays calm, like in any situation. And he was, he just looked at me and smiled and he's like, it's going to be all right. Everything's going to be fine. I've sorted it out. You don't need to stress.

And I was just like, okay, okay, okay. With my head I'm thinking, ooh, I've planned this perfect party outside. And yeah, anyway, it all was good. It was lovely. They had a great day, other than Blake was a bit off because she wasn't feeling herself.

But yeah, it was good. It was lovely. And I think what I realized afterwards was it was absolutely pointless wrapping presents. I like thoroughly enjoyed buying nice wrapping paper for them, wrapping their presents the day before and that kind of thing, but it was just pointless. They couldn't care less.

They like the presents, but they're not asked about it being wrapped. Yeah. Yeah, no, it was good, it was good. Yes, that was kind of all my news really. That I'm just trying to work alongside everything else. Juggling all the pillars of your life. Constantly. It's just my tagline, isn't it?

I feel like that's the story of my life. It's just like never ending. Yeah, literally. Yeah, 100%. So yeah, that's it. That's me never ending. Yeah, literally. Yeah, 100%. So yeah, that's it. That's me. How about you? I'm all good.

Thank you. I went camping on the weekend last minute. Oh, yeah. Yeah, weren't you? So that was fun. It was like a very impulsive last minute decision. So luckily there's a tecaflon in Thailand that's very cheap.

So I went and bought a tent. Yeah, got my sleeping bag. And went and bought a 10. Yeah. Got my sleeping bag. And you put it up yourself. Yeah. So proper proud of that. If you didn't see the story, I put it on my highlights in the Chiang Mai section. Um, because it was a really not having people miss that guys. It's very good. Do You know what, it's end. Do you know what? I was like, so I was going with a friend that I met, for a friend actually, like last year. And she was, I'm gonna get there at about two.

And I was just sort of waiting around. And I thought, so do it. I'm just gonna get there. I'm gonna turn up on my own. And I'm gonna put my tent up. And I'm not fazed by stuff like that. I don't really care. I eat most of my up on my own and I'm going to put my tent up. And I'm not fazed by stuff like that. I don't really care. I eat most of my meals on my own.

I'm not really bothered about stuff like that. So I saw it. So anyway, got there. I was like, you've got this babes. I didn't realize, you know, sort of like the poles, they can bend. So I was sort of making the tent like with like rectangle sort of shape, but actually it's like a... When have you ever seen a rectangle tent? A gazebo.

So I was like, how does this work? And then I thought, try and bend them sort of as they connect and then it all worked Sam. I did it all on my own. I didn't even need someone to like hold it, you know? And do you know what it made me think about? It's so random, but I remember when I was with my first boyfriend, that he was like, making the bed is a two man job. And I was like, babes, it's not like, it's lovely to have two people do it, but you can do it as one person. And I feel like this tent experience was the same thing, like much easier with two people, but one person can do it. So anyway, that's that. Everyone was like the biggest hippie that I've ever met in my life.

It looks absolutely wild. It was, it was very wild. It was just like, it was just, I don't know, I felt like I went back in time. I felt like I could back in time. I felt like I could join the circus. Yeah. It was just- Yeah. Or a cult. Yeah. Basically, it was like a cult. What was interesting was basically it felt like

everyone became children. There was just girls doingwheels like all the time in camp. And it's just so weird. It's just like it's just they remind me of being a kid. You know what I would be doing? I'd be doing roly polys. I can't even do a roly poly. Sam, my boobs get in the way. Like I actually tried to do one not that long ago. They get like stuck because they're a bit too big. Oh my God, maybe I can't do a rolly rolly. No, you would. I think it's the commitment to like really, like it's like in yoga when you do certain poses

that I get quite scared. It's like that real, got really- Yeah, that's true actually. But I can do a pencil roll very well. And I didn't do that at camp. But now they'd be like, who's this idiot? Pencil rolling. Do the salmon on the floor.

No, but like they were all doing cartwheels. And it did make me think about being a kid at school, never been able to do them and just looking at them like, all right. And like there was a lot of dreadlocks, which I can deal with, but what I can't deal with is a beard dreadlock. No. It's just dirty.

That is so dirty. And there was a- Like you eat it. Oh no. Yeah, yeah. So that was, yeah, yeah. But it was organized by a group of Japanese hippies, basically. So that was, yeah, yeah. But it was organized by a group of Japanese hippies basically.

Oh, if there is a dreadlock in their hair and a dreadlock on their face, there's gonna be a dreadlock somewhere else, I'm telling you. Oh, Sam. I know, there is. Do you think? There'll be that kind of, yeah, dirty people.

Maybe, I don't know. But yeah, it was just really interesting. Do you know what? Japanese men are quite attractive. Okay, subject to opinion. Yeah, so I was sort of, they're very cool. They're very like, like they felt like a cleaner hippie, to be honest. Like, okay. Maybe it's just Japanese culture. I don't know loads about it, but I was quite

drawn to them and I thought, oh, you're quite mystical and mysterious. But there was just a real mixture of people. You just kind of have to dance like no one's watching in all honesty. Yeah. And everyone was. I was really awkward though. I was a bit frigid, in all honesty. Did you let loose or not? Took me a while, took me. If you went to a club and like, not like now maybe,

but like maybe a few years ago, whatever, you'd had a few drinks, would you be on the dance floor dancing? Not always. Like I would say. Okay, yeah, I would be. I wouldn't even sit down. Yeah, oh, I'd sit down.

Like I'm actually a bit boring. Like when I think about nights out with my school girls, like there was me and my friend Meg, like always could rely on each other to be like, we're ready to go now, let's go get some chips. Like I like a dance, but I've really got to be in, we're ready to go now. Let's go get some chips. Like I like a dance, but I've really got to be in the mood for it. And I wasn't necessarily like feeling it.

I felt like an outsider actually. Yeah, but that's just my stuff. It's my own stuff coming up there. But like, I just was like, oh, like tapping my foot, shaking my shoulders, and tapping your foot. Oh my God. I am a bit of a goon in these moments though, because I'm sort of like looking at them all and I'm like, oh my God, you're so free. And obviously most of them are high as whatever, taking God knows what. So that also adds to like the fact that it's so free. Oh yeah, that's such a good point actually. There's a reason why you were feeling the way you were, and they were feeling the way they were, is because they were off the face. Yeah. And like, you know, there was one girl that I was watching and she was really young

and she was just like, she looked phenomenal. And she was just kissing everyone and dancing. And I was like looking at her thinking, I definitely wasn't like that. Like when I was like 20 and I was like, Oh, that's really cool that she can be so free. And I was like, she's probably just off her tits. So maybe not. She could have been sober, but that was sort of, but anyway, so it's good. And you wash in the hot springs. So there was like the mountains, it's up in the mountains. So you go and wash in the springs. So there's the freezing cold mountain water. The hot springs were in these little bath tubs.

I didn't like that. It felt like everyone was a bit dirty getting in these hot tubs. Wasn't really my vibe. So I would go more into the freezing cold water and wash that way, but I never felt fully clean in all honesty. Yeah, I can imagine. Yeah. And then what else? That was it really? There was a drum set. Did he take soap with you?

I took like equivalent of baby wipes. Oh, okay. But like I wouldn't use soap. It's like going to a festival then. Yeah. Like it was pretty much a festival. Like I wouldn't have used like shampoo in the hot springs because it's like fresh water. That I wouldn't want to do that. Oh yeah, fair. Yeah. Like make a bubble bath in like. That would be me though. Yeah. So, but yeah, it was good. Good laugh.

Yeah, so, but yeah, it was good. Good laugh. Pleased I did it. No rush to go back, if I was to be honest. But I enjoyed camping. I was out watching the sunrise. I was loving it. Oh, that's nice. Yeah.

Yeah, that is nice. I've just had a nap bite on my bum cheek because we're talking. What? Honest to God, sorry if I'm literally just having to scratch my bum on camera. Right on my bum cheek. Oh. A what bite?

A gnat bite. What's a gnat? A gnat, like a mosquito. What are you talking about? I've never heard of that before. I haven't. Are you serious? 100%. What's a gnat? Is a gnat a type of mosquito? Is it just another word? Honest to God, are you being serious?

I swear on my life, I have never heard that phrase before. I'm gonna Google it. I'm pretty...no, but I feel like mosquitoes don't exist in England. It's gnat in England. I don't know. Right. No, the defo do. Right.

What is a gnat bite? I'm just Googling it. Gnat bites is G-N-A-T. They're small itchy red bumps that look like mosquito bites. Yeah. Oh my God. Where have you been living? I know you've been in Dubai a long time. Are mosquitoes in the UK? Yes, they are. Okay. So they do travel. Yeah.

The little fuckers. I hate them. Oh yeah, they are. So yeah, anyway, I've just been bitten on the bum. Getting a bit of action. Ah! Ah! So yeah, anyway, that's me.

All good. Work's been so busy. I've set up my academy group, opening the second one, which is really good. And I've had five new coaching members in a week. What do you have? That's a lot. It is a lot. But I was making room for it energetically.

And literally I did one story and they all messaged, had calls. They've all signed up. That is so good. Yeah. What's in for you? Thanks. I'm really, really happy for you. Yeah.

Yeah, that's really good. I'm glad. And they're all sort of spiritual development stuff. And it's been making me think quite a lot about my, my why again. And it is definitely just like that spiritual awakening and everyone on the calls were like, I just, am I going crazy? Am I going mad? And I'm like, no, you're not.

And I know that feeling and I just think it's so hard on your own. And I really like what's sort of coming from this. So I just thought I'd share that with you babes cause it's all good. No, I love that. I'm really happy for you. I think it's great.

I've loved your audio as well on Patreon. I think it's great. I've loved your audios as well on Patreon. Yeah, it's been really good. I've really been putting a lot of energy into the membership and really dedicating time to it because I feel like it's such a nice way to put information out there. So with the audios and stuff. So, please, thank you very much Samantha.

Appreciate that feedback. Oh, very welcome. So audios and stuff. So please, thank you very much, Samantha. Appreciate that feedback. Oh, very welcome. So we're gonna delve into our next bit. Yes, let's do it. Okay, we are ready to go with Cards and Confessions. This is where you are gonna get tough love from me and feel the feels from Jess. She is gonna be using her tarot cards

to give you the best advice possible. And I am gonna be here with a little bit of tough love, but I promise I will go easy on you. Okay, so I have the questions. Let me get them all up. Can I share some updates? Oh, go on, yes. Oh yeah, yes.

Sorry, I just need to cough. So we did hear- Yeah, I actually need to just wipe my nose one second. Go on girl, you wipe your nose. I'll have a cough. So I'd heard, oh, will we stop in? Sam's taking headphones off and a microphone. I'm just going to keep talking.

So we'd heard from the anonymous person about the affair, the dad affair and does the mum know and all that stuff. So we're still keeping it anonymous. But they messaged to say that it really helped them and that it gave them a lot more clarity. They felt quite emotional and it definitely resonates about it's more to do with them and their dad and that conversation there. So that's really, really good that we got that validation. Yeah, I'm so glad that we got that.

And that they felt comfortable enough to message you. Oh, sorry. Has my mic just gone? We've lost you girl. Sorry, I'm back. I'm back. Sorry, I'm so glad that'm back. I'm back. Sorry. I'm so glad that they felt comfortable enough to message you and say that.

So yeah, it's really nice. Yeah. It's nice to know that these things make sense because especially when you're doing readings, you just don't know who the person is. So you don't know. Yeah, exactly. Anyway, so a couple of things, Samantha, that we wanna give some instructions to people.

Absolutely. In regards to your questions, we've got some really good ones and we're loving that we've getting these questions coming in. But we would love a bit more, I don't know how to. I'm gonna say depth.

Depth. I want a say depth. Depth. I want a bit more depth to them. Like a little bit more information and a little bit more depth is the way that I would describe it. Yeah, I think so. Because the more that we know, the more that we can give guidance on.

And also when it comes to reading tarot, like I'm not able to always give like exact specifics of something. So if you're asking for something very specific, like anything to do with like location or whatever, it's a bit harder. So just be mindful of that. But we've got some questions today that are really good.

And as we go through them, like you'll see how we work with them. But yeah, the more detail. As an example, right? And I haven't even told you about this one. One of them is like, when am I gonna meet my Prince Charming? And I'm like, that's not the kind of message that we want.

We want a message that's like, I've tried X, Y and Z. What can I do to help me attract a partner, you know, that's like this or whatever. Yeah, exactly. Like, let's take away the superficialness to these questions and look inwards and what can you do better? Do you know what I mean?

I hear you babes. So what we'll do. Things like that. And obviously for things like when that person had wrote in about their mom and dad and stuff like that, that's different because of specific scenario. Well there was detail. So you can dig into detail and then you can get more from it. So what we'll do is we'll make a little guide.

I do this on Patreon because people ask me questions every month and I give examples where I'm like, what's blocking me on meeting someone or what's, you know, why am I triggered by my boss? What am I not seeing about this? Or, you know, I really like this guy. He's, you know, a bit of all he did, you know, what do I need to do? Like that's the sort of stuff that's a little bit more, we can give a bit more advice. Yeah, definitely. Okay. So we're going to start with this one. Yeah. I'm feeling quite lost career-wise slash life path. I feel like I'm meant for more, something different. I'm drawn to Reiki and more spiritual subjects

and wonder if that would be a possible career. Is that the path I should follow or should I find another corporate job, another job in corporate? Love it. Sounds like you could have written this three years ago. Yeah, absolutely. Well, firstly, I'm like, do it, go.

Yeah, absolutely. 100%. Okay. So the question basically is you're feeling lost. You've really drawn to spiritual stuff. You love your Reiki and should you follow that in a spiritual way to build your career or should you continue on the corporate sort of path? Okay.

All right. Let's have a little shuffle and see what the cards are saying. So I'm going to pull a card about why you feel lost first of all, because then that, oh, just dropped a load. It's all right. They're not meant to be part of the reading. Okay. So why do you feel lost? Okay. We have the five of Pentecost, so I'm going to explore that. Should you follow Reiki as your career? Ooh, maybe I'm catching your cold through the Zoom. Yeah, definitely Queen of Wands. Hell yeah.

And what about your corporate career? Okay, all right. So this is what's coming up for me, Sam. I've got two cards that are telling me a lot about this person. I very much relate to them. I've got the Queen of Wands for Reiki. The Queen of Wands is the spiritual babe. She's really in tune. She's really flowing. And then I have for corporate, the Queen of Swords, get shit done, action corporate. So basically what I'm feeling with this person is they're

two people, okay? And they're not able to bring the two together to meet in the middle. So it's like they're in one place in the spiritual world and then they have to turn that off and they go into their corporate. And it's exhausting I imagine because I remember how that felt and it's really draining and you kind of feel like you're like playing a duo act in life. So your reiki path is absolutely aligned, 100%, your spiritual path. Now these things are quite difficult to sort of transition, you know, I know what it feels like. So if you're going to push your spirituality, you know, you need to think about how do you build that into a side hustle, but there's some fear around money that's coming up with the card that is your current

feeling lost, which is the five of pentacles. And the picture of the five of pentacles I'll describe is like a man with crutches and there's another man and he's homeless, but they're walking past a church. So it's like they have got help, but they're not choosing it. So like, I don't know what's coming up for you right now, whoever this person is, but it's like, there are options, there are solutions, but I think you're a bit scared, so you're not taking it.

So you're just staying in limbo and you're just sort of staying in this place. Now that fear is normal, but you've got to build something a bit on the side. What do you think Sam, when you sort of thinking about building something on the side and whatever? I think that it's a really good way to start

is building something from the side, because I think I can understand why people have fear into going into something new and going into like the unknown, but at the same time, I also think that a lot of people, say for example, whoever's wrote this in now is looking at you and they might be like, well, it's easy for Jess because she has, she does, has done X, Y, and Z. It's easy for Sam to have got a salon because of X, Y, and Z. No, no, we were in exactly that same position that you are in right now when we took that leap. Everybody who has got somewhere has taken a leap

from somewhere that was scary and uncomfortable and it was a risk, you know? You have to take a risk to be able to get the reward. And if you feel passionate about something and you feel drawn to it, absolutely explore it. And if you feel that you're a little bit scared of, you know, like you've just said, maybe the money, that side of things, then yeah, start out with a sideline. Offer a key to your friends and family, or maybe not friends and family, maybe to other people, but for free to practice and get feedback

and say, I'm going to be doing this for free. Who would like a session? But the only thing I ask back is for a testimonial. Start doing it that way to build it up. And then the more you do it, the more confident you'll feel. And then you can start charging higher. And then before you know, it'll take over your job. Well, that's exactly how it worked for me. Like when I think back to when I started out, like I've always been quite lucky. I will use the word lucky

because I do think there's an energy where even when I started, I got bookings quite quickly, which I know not everyone gets. So that for whatever reason, my soul was chosen to flow there. But I know for a lot of people, I know not everyone gets. So for whatever reason, my soul was chosen to flow there. But I know for a lot of people, that's not the case. So think about how can you do your Reiki to just get awareness? Okay. So I found that my business grew organically through referrals. So it might be doing some bits for free. When I started, I charged 20 quid.

And I know the world's even a bit different from then. And some people say to charge loads of money, but if you just want to get the business, just to get the experience and get the confidence, find a way to get that, which might be a lower price for a bit or whatever. It might be doing a circle for free or whatever. Also, I really believe in online Reiki. Um, I really, like I do all my work online. I can feel energy across the screen. You do not need to be in person. So like also think about that for this person as well. But yeah, fuck it, do it, make it happen. Leave the corporate world, you're not made for it. You're fine and you do it, but you'll burn out. So yeah.

Yeah. Okay, so then we have another one that says, how do you know when it's the right time to leave Dubai? I have amazing friends, but that's about it. Ooh, go on, you start with that. So I would say, obviously it's difficult for me to say, because I'm still here, but I genuinely think you will know

when it's the right time to leave. Like you will feel like no part in Dubai serves you anymore. And that's when you know it's the time to leave and I think sometimes what people forget you can come back. You don't have to that be it and like you never come back again like I've had friends that have left and have moved back to Dubai. Yeah it's not always easy to come back but you can do it.

So I really do think one you're going to know when it's the right time to leave because you need to look at every area of life. And by that, I mean career, I mean home, I mean happiness, I mean relationships, friendships, whatever that is. If it's serving you in all those areas, mark it out at 10 and maybe keep a diary over the next six to 12 weeks each day of mark those areas out of 10 and see where you are. And if you're still consistently low, then yeah, it's the right time to leave. Yeah, definitely. So I've pulled some cards, I've had the hermit. So like you might feel

quite lonely in Dubai. So even though you've got friends, you might be lacking some like emotional stuff. And there's another card which I've got, which is the five of cups. And he's quite deflated, deflated, deflated in this card. Deflated, yeah. And he's sort of just feeling very burnt out with the energy. So again, I've got experience. I've left Dubai. I no longer live there. It was the best decision for me. It was a decision that took time. And it was a decision that I reflected on my time in Dubai. So any advice I can give is where is

there resistance? Are you feeling more resistance in your love life, in your career? If you are, like could be connected to the energy of the land. Now this connects to astrocotography where you can look at your planetary lines on the world map. It's quite complex, but Dubai is a really hard place for me. I think I might have mentioned this the other day on another podcast, can't remember. It's got resistance. So like I struggled with friendships there. I struggled with, my business grew amazingly, but like there was a lot of resistance with that. And I think that like, you've got to be honest with yourself if there is resistance. And to be honest, like I like

Sam sort of ranking thing, because I think it's good to like look and be like, okay, what are the days? I personally don't, I wouldn't do that because that's just not me. I'm not very good at ranking stuff. I'm more of a feeler. The time will be right when you're meant to leave. And I would stop stressing about it

and stop sort of thinking about it. You'll know and enjoy the time you have until then. If there's resistance, look at that. Why is it there? Do you need to do some work? But it feels a little bit lonely, I'll be honest with you. The energy feels a little bit like it's a bit of a hardship now.

So friends are good, but you're a little bit done. So yeah. Yeah, I get that. Yeah, I feel like, sorry, I feel like I waffled a bit there. So basically you'll know when it's right, work with your feelings, like Sam said, track it if that works for you.

Look at the resistance, why is it coming up and what I mean by resistance, are things not flowing as well as they had done? And does it need to be the UK? Could you live somewhere or wherever you're wanting to go? Look at your options. Could be some other places. Yeah.

And then for our last one we have, am I on the right track with my career? It feels like I've been fighting an uphill battle for so long. Okay. So again, with these questions, like I said before, I feel like we could do with a little bit more information. I'm not going to lie, but still, okay, we'll just go with it. So what more would you want for that question?

Tell me Sam. So I would just kind of want to know what type of career have you been in and how long have you actually been in it? Why does it feel like an uphill battle? Love that. Yeah. And personally for me, if you say that you feel like you've been fighting an uphill battle? Mm, love that. Yeah, and personally for me, if you say that you feel like you've been fighting

an uphill battle for so long, I would probably look at all areas of it, I'd look at, okay, why does it feel like an uphill battle? Is it because what is potentially at the top of what you see as the top, that get into isn't actually meant for you. Is it that or is it that could you be putting more work in that you're not or is it that it's, yeah, it might just not be right for you.

So this person's working very hard in the cards. Okay. They're working very, very hard because they've got the eight of pentacles and the 10 of one. So the eight of pentacles is a man working as an apprentice building. So this person to me is studying, they're learning, they're working very hard to build something. And I think they're worried that they've spent too long learning and studying something that if they leave, it's like, what was that for? It's like becoming a doctor and inquiring. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, kind of my journey. Do you know what I mean?

That's the energy I'm getting for this person. Now the 10 of ones symbolizes an end of the burden, but you're still carrying it right now. So this job or this career is a burden for you. Like you don't, you're not as enjoyable or it's not as, it doesn't make you happy. And then I've got the emperor, which is the archetype of this sort of job you're in,

which is masculine. So there's a lot of structure. You're not able to be in your feminine, you're not able to flow. So maybe it is corporate, I don't know, but it feels quite rigid and like rules and structure is Aries energy, the Empress. So there's a bit of fire there. So it's a little bit, yeah, like it just doesn't really feel like a place where you'll be happy, but it's sort of quite a societal job, I feel, for this person. So what should you do? Let's find out.

It is hard when you're working so hard for something and you feel like, I know exactly how that feels, to feel like you want something so much and you're working so hard, but you just don't feel like you're ever quite getting a grasp of it. But if you know that it is something that deep down you really want, then you just have to keep going and keep persisting. Yeah. Yeah.

You'll get there. Yeah, definitely. Like I personally feel like they're done. I think they're just, they're in this industry or whatever they're in. This is just intuitive. And I think you don't even like it. You don't even enjoy it. So why are you doing it?

That's kind of the energy I'm getting for this person. And I've pulled the queen of cups. So the queen of cups is the spiritual babe. She's very chilled. She's very Pisces. She's flowing, she's water. And then she's in this environment with the emperor with structure and burden and responsibility. And she's just like, fucking hell, give me a break.

So it sounds similar to the other one, the first question. Yeah. And it reminds me of how I used to feel in my corporate days. Like I was just, it was so exhausting. Like it was just never ending. And you have no time. This person has no time. So then their personal life isn't thriving right now. And the Queen of Cups has a nice balance. So what I would say is, I do think you need to change. I do think you know that deep down. I think you're really scared.

I think you're really attached to what you've built in your career. And I do think you'll leave it over the next 12 months in all honesty. And I think it'll be a good thing for you. But it's gonna take a bit of time. You need to work out what you're gonna do next. I don't know if you're creative,

but there could be some stuff there. I think you'll have a bit of time. You need to work out what you're gonna do next. I don't know if you're creative, but there could be some stuff there that I think you'll have a different career path. So work through the fear. The fears will stop in you naturally. So it's always fear, but I'd work with a coach or a therapist through this and honestly, it might be quite hard to do on your own. Yeah, that's really good advice, definitely.

Yeah, no, I think that's great. Yeah, amazing. Do you want any more? Yeah, no, I think that's great. Yeah, amazing. Do you want any more? Yeah, go on then, why not? Give us one more. Should we do one more? Yeah. Okay, this one did make me chuckle a little bit.

Not to laugh at someone, but this did make me laugh a little bit, just because I don't know if you'll see. I'm pregnant with a man I have been with in a relationship. Sorry, I'm pregnant with a man I have been in a a relationship, sorry, I'm pregnant with a man I have been in a relationship with for three years, but I'm questioning whether we should be together.

I have been thinking of exes I should have stayed with. Am I just getting cold feet or are we better off separated? Now for me, that sounds quite drastic, like are we better off separated just because you're thinking of an ex? That's why it made me laugh, to be honest. But, and it also made me laugh because you're pregnant, like your mind is not normal when you're pregnant.

Yeah, yeah. It's quite a lot, isn't it? Like, being pregnant, thinking of an ex, that's hard, and that happens. Okay, all right, babes, don't worry, we'll work this out. So like Sam said, I wouldn't rush into anything. I don't think a separation is needed right now. I think it's more about looking at your relationship.

Now, when people come to me and they're like, I've been dreaming about my ex, it's quite a common thing, right? And you're like, okay. They're like, I've been dreaming about my ex. It's quite a common thing, right? And you're like, okay. And they're like, what does it mean? Like, and I'm like, okay, it's just energy stored in the body. Now we all have soulmates. Soulmates don't need to be life mates. Soulmates can come in for five minutes, five years, five decades. It doesn't really matter. Their times are relevant, but people come in and they impact you. So for example, with these exes,

they came in at the right time for whatever reason, and maybe they did love you with more like affection or more understanding, maybe. And maybe this new partner, the partner that you're with right now, doesn't give you all those things, but on a soul level, you've chose each other, And it's a soul contract that you have here. Okay. So what I would say to you, this is not about impulse. This isn't about reacting quickly

and, and worrying that you're thinking about exes. It's actually quite normal. So I just want to reassure you that it's okay. In regards to your exes, you're not getting anything you want in your relationship. So there's some shadow in your relationship, there's some gaps in your relationship. That's all you're being shown. That's what they're showing you. Now, what comes up for me is, are you communicating that with your partner?

I don't know. I'm not sure. The cards I've got is the King of Cups and the Eight of Wands. So I explain about them. And one more, the Ace of Cups. Like this has got an opportunity to grow this relationship. So like, I think you're right, babes. I do think that you need to communicate your needs a bit more. Because I don't think this

partner knows what you need. So they don't feel it. But focus on what's not working and how you can fix it instead of separation and thinking about exes, because it's not going to help you. I'm just going to pull one of my angel cards for this as well. And also this baby, when it comes to babies, they choose their parents. There's always a sole contract with children to their parents. So you two are meant to have this baby. Like you're meant to be together, whether that's as a loving couple or as co-parents or whatever it is you decide,

like it's okay, this is part of your karmic destiny. That's so nice. It's true, it's completely true. Like that's why, and it will teach you something. There'll be something about this relationship, about this child that will help you grow as a human, okay? Yeah. that will help you grow as a human, okay? So we've got stay determined and move forward, be prepared for any possibility.

So there's something here, don't go back basically, don't go back to the Xs, move forward. And it says, there's a new emotional situation that can come from this. And I think for you and your partner, there is an opportunity to build this emotional connection in a different way. And I urge you to explore that. I think it will be alright. But if it's not satisfying you over time, I always say this to clients.

You have to do the work. You have to explore your shadow. But after a certain amount of time, if you're really not happy, then I support you if this isn't what you want to be in anymore. And I always support women with that because I think at times we can feel very stuck in a relationship. So, you know, whatever you decide to do, you're supported. But right now, work out the shadows, work out what's not working, try and fix that by talking because you're not talking. See what

happens. Yeah. Oh, I think that's great. Yeah. Yeah. I love that. I feel like you're so good at this. I love just watching you answer these questions. I find it's great. Yeah. Yeah, I love that. I feel like you're so good at this. I love just watching you answer these questions. I find it so interesting. Well, it is my job, Samantha, so I... Oh, I know. But I mean, like, you normally do that

with the person on the, speaking to you. Do you get what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So doing it from a message, I'm just like, I don't know how you do that. Well, the thing is, what you do with things like this. Oh, I know how you do it anyway, but you know what I mean. It's so, like, I don't know how you do that. Well, the thing is what you do with things like this. I know how you do it anyway, but you know what I mean. It's so hard to explain, but when you say that message,

it's like, I can feel the energy of that person when they sent it. So like, what's maybe coming up, why they've sent it. So like for Sam, Sam needs a bit more detail in the question, which I get, you're going to respond logically. Where for me, like, yeah, more details really good. It does help, but I can kind of pull out like what's coming through, what's coming up. But yeah, you just connect to the energy of that person. And basically you have to drop the ego and just trust that what you're feeling is right.

And do you know what most of the time the feedback is that it is, of course I'll be wrong sometimes. That's fine. But you just have to let it flow because it's not me speaking, it's just spirit. We're just passing on message. You can do it Sam, we all can. Maybe that's why this podcast led up, I learned and that's where this podcast will end up. I'll learn that that's where I'll end up. You'll be full on psychic channeling.

But honestly, everyone is psychic. Everyone is capable of it. It's just that it's being squashed and we have to open it up. And when you do, you feel a bit crazy and then you start to get a little bit more comfortable with it. Yeah. Oh, that's great. you feel a bit crazy and then you start to get a little bit more comfortable with it. Yeah. Oh, that's great. Oh, well, thanks for listening, guys.
