0:00:00.1 S2: Welcome to spirit stories, the Friday edition of the spiritual AF Life Podcast. And today is a very special episode because I'm gonna be sharing stories about my amazing a-Juju, some really interesting things that happened before she passed, along with incredible things that happened and selling that she has sent after she transitioned to the other side. I actually released this podcast, a spiritual as Life Podcast, on the anniversary of her passing her two-year anniversary in heaven, I did that because I know that she would have low... Loved hearing these stories. I know that she pay would have been my number one fan, even though I'm not certain if she even knew what a podcast was, but I'm pretty sure she would have tuned in and she would have listened to this, and I think that each of us has someone in our life, or maybe had someone in our life that was completely accepting of us, who may be glazed to trail with us, who maybe stood by us when other people weren't... For me, that was always my grandma, right.
0:01:17.7 S1: But my Aunt Jo-Jo really was that person for me when I went through my spiritual awakening, and so I believe that this is a great way to honor her, and I am just so grateful that I get to share her story with you.
0:01:38.4 S2: Let's go do it.
0:01:41.9 S1: My aunt Jude was one of the most interesting people that I've ever had in my life, and I called her Aunt Jo Jo. I forgot when I actually started calling her that it was her nickname... Her name was Judy or Judith Ann, but we all called her Judy. Judy and then JJ for short.
0:02:01.5 S2: And
0:02:02.4 S1: She was one of the only family members that I had that were really accepting of me 100% when I came out of the spiritual closet with my gifts, and she was always so curious about them and she was always wanting to talk about it. And was very fascinated.
0:02:22.6 S2: And it was really funny because her last Christmas here, I actually got her a deck of oracle cards, and I knew that she was still a lover of Jesus, so I actually got her Jesus oracle cards, and I just felt so close to her.
0:02:36.4 S1: And it was really crazy how she passed, it was right before the pandemic hit in January of 2020, and she was sick.
0:02:48.0 S2: But my... And she was always the one that wasn't feeling good, so it wasn't a lot of the norm for her to be feeling under the weather, however, on this day, her son was actually in the hospital about to have her first grandchild, and I remember the text coming through our family was in a group text and her son, which was my cousin, was talking about how he can't wait to... The mom comes up and the baby is almost born and things like that, and I was like, Wow, I can't believe that. And Jojo isn't gonna be there. Do you think that she could at the time, tough enough and go see her grandson being born, and my other aunt was checking in on her, and she didn't look so good, but she was like... My aunt said to her, Hey, if you don't feel good, the next time I check in on, you know where I'm taking it to the hospital, I won't take you to doctors. We gotta figure out something. I don't know what's wrong with you.
0:03:43.6 S1: And my Aunt Jo Jo told that and... Okay, but just make sure when you leave to lock the door. And so when my Aunt left her apartment, she locked the door and my aunt went home and like an hour or so later, she was about to go check on my aunt when she got the phone call that the baby had been born, and she was obviously very excited and very excited to tell my own Jojo, so when she walked over to our apartment, they were in walking distance, she knocked on the door and the story is told that she heard my aunt kind of like signing, breathing and that kind of thing. And then she said, You know, Judy, the baby is here. And then right after she never heard her side or breathe again, he ended up that she passed away. Completely unexpected. Completely out of the blue. And I remember when that call came in. I think that we all remember when we have a loved one that transition to the other side, we always remember where we were, what we were doing, but it wasn't that day or maybe the next day, my sister actually calls me off and she was like, Heather, don't you remember that? You predicted this.
0:04:54.5 S1: And I was like, No, what are you talking about? And she tells me the story about how when my mom got sick with cancer, she had just had our oncology appointment, and they said us right over to the ER, and this is when we realized, this is really serious, it was only about a week into her diagnosis, and when my mom went to get some tests on, my sister's out there and she was like, Heather, please connect, please connect, tell me what's going on. Tell me what's gonna happen.
0:05:23.4 S2: And
0:05:23.9 S1: A couple of things came through, but the big one that came through was, I said, Mom wants to go because she wants to be on the other side when someone else passes away, and I remember thinking to myself... I was like, Man, six months or a year. I'm not sure if I told my sister that or not, but I told her that someone is going to pass away and mom wanted to be there on the other side, ironically, if you wanna call it ironic. My Aunt Jo-Jo passed away almost six months to the day that my mom passed away, so my mom passed away on July 22, 2019, and my aunt Jeju passed away January 20th of 2020. And so my Aunt Jo-Jo was the baby of all my grandma's kids, and I know that my mom would have wanted to be there on the other side for her, sometimes crazy things happen, and they always say it happens for a reason, but the thing is, don't even try to look for the reasons. I don't understand sometimes what I was thinking when I signed up for this life, but just know that it is all part of the divine plan, so I always keep thinking about that and it's like, Wow, there was something bigger talking to me at that time.
0:06:41.6 S1: Spirit was talking to me, God was talking to me, whatever that you wanna call it, it was talking to me, and it gave me comfort and knowing that my antiguan, my mom are together, however, that is just the start of some of the signs that I got from my Aunt Jo Jo, after she passed, one more thing that I really wanna talk about before I get in some of the signs was after my anger passed, her phone was missing, her phone was missing, and I wanna be honest with you, a couple of us family members really, really, really wanna see what's going on on that phone, because in recent weeks or maybe the recent month, my aunt had started to go out and party a little bit, now, a little background on my aunt was that she was married to the love of her life, for decades. And he passed away, I believe it was in 2010. That was my Uncle Tom.
0:07:35.1 S2: You literally could not say the word and JJ without Uncle Tom.
0:07:38.7 S1: She was heartbroken and devastated, in fact, she always wore black... Spiky spiky black. She had a cool style about her, but she always wanted to take on that role of a widow, and I feel it was because she felt closer to him.
0:07:56.6 S2: So she wore the black and she just loved my uncle town, but something happened right before she passed away, in those weeks in that month to where she was allowing her to self to have fun for the first time since he passed away, and there was a rumor that she had a boyfriend, and I remember the whole file been like, oh my gosh, we can't wait to find the phone because we gotta tell the people that she's been partying with what's going on, and we want to hear the stories about... And when those kind of things... Well, guess what happened? We couldn't find the phone at all, right, the phone was nowhere to be found, and my other aunt, the one who was checking up on her was like... It was with her.
0:08:39.9 S1: It was with her, and that's when the craziest thing happened, the funeral home ended up calling us and saying to us that the phone was cremated with her shocking. Now, you might say it was a funeral home fault and that we should talk with them about it, blame them, that kind of thing, but we've had a lot of dust in my family recently, and we use the same funeral home over and over again. They really bit people that really, really thorough. All those things, they were saddened that this has happened, but some of us in the family, like me and my sister, we both throw the truth, and Judi did not want any of that getting out, she did not want people to see what was going on in her phone, and I think it's kind of funny because after my mom passed away, my Aunt Jo Jo, one of my mom's phone really bad, in fact, I gave it to her 'cause I knew I had meant so much to her.
0:09:39.6 S2: So I think that it's kind of crazy. I was like, Oh, and Curt win, you know what I mean? She was like, I want to go down... And I not go down as a bad way of putting it, I want to leave that legacy of me and Uncle Tom, I know that's what she was thinking, and she didn't want anything that was in the phone to stain that reputation.
0:10:02.6 S1: If you will.
0:10:03.8 S2: So I thought that was so... Totally amazing. Now and go. Let me see. And passed, but it was really crazy to... Was a few weeks before she passed, I was holding an in-person psychic and mediumship development circle here in Michigan. And
0:10:25.3 S1: What I had done was I had taken the class and I put them into several groups, and then what I would do is I would walk over to each individual group and I would coach them along into connecting to the other side, connecting to a spirit, and I remember I sat down with one of these groups and they were like, Oh yes, I have a spirit coming in, they're very quiet, and then I believe they got them... They did definitely get the name town, and they were talking, and I remember thinking, Oh my gosh, Uncle Tom is showing up, that's so cool. He must just be popping in to say Hi, and I didn't think anything of it, I'm in teacher mode at this moment, I'm not in Reader mode, and I thought that was really, really cool. That was a big validation, and I forget if I actually plays a... Both tellin jor not that Uncle Tom was around. But now I look back on it and I'm like, Wow, Uncle Tom was aware and Acton knew what was going on. So crazy. I think back on that and it just gives me so much comfort to know.
0:11:25.3 S2: But now... And Joest, and I think it was maybe a week or two at that she passed away, and I go out to eat, and I remember I turned a corner... A corner that I always turn, right. It's right by the mall. But for some reason, this sign catches my eye and I stop in my car and I just look and I double glass and I'm just thinking like, I have to stop here and look at this time, but I don't understand why, because I know all the stores in this area, I see them every day. And that's when I realized I was looking at a sign for Jud Jews, frozen yogurt, I was like, No way, June ju, ju, ju ju. Just like my aunt, I have bit so many times I never turned to together, so I know it was my aunt, they was trying to get my attention on that sign and be like, Hey, I'm here, I'm here, and that's one way that our past live on show that they're with us is that, you know, you might be going through your same day and day out thing, and you might be going by certain stores or signs that you see every day, but then all of a suddenly you might be drawn to one for some reason, and I might have their name on it, where you never noticed it before, and what they're doing is they're oppressing their energy onto it, so my Aunt, Jen, you npr's the energy of herself on that sign, so that I would be attracted to it so that I would notice it.
0:12:50.6 S2: At the same time, she was trying to put thoughts into my mind saying how there had their Heather look this way. They speak telepathically, so that's another reason why that we have to be so aware and conscious of our thoughts. So now, me and my husband, another really cool story, my husband are driving down the road, and I'm thinking of her and I forget what day it
0:13:12.3 S1: Was, and I have pictures to propose, and I was just... I don't know, I was just thinking about her and we were at a red light and I just glanced at the car next to us, and I see the license plate, and you will even believe what the license plate said. Okay, maybe you could... It is Ju Ju. That is it. On the license plate, Juju
0:13:39.2 S2: Hi. Life was like beside myself. And I look at my husband and I am like, Can you believe it? What are the odds? He's like, the odds are pretty good, and I'm like, the heads are pretty good, that I write next to a car, and then I felt guilt at their license plate and it says Jane ju, ju, ju, like no other words, no other numbers known. Anything else? I'm like, I thought he was freaking crazy, but no one's gonna do Lismore, no one's gonna dull that message that I got from an juju that day, and what I think it's particularly interesting is the fact that Spirit had to coordinate that. Right, so they knew that I was gonna be on that road at that time, and they were trying to sink us together and it worked, I did it, and I just... I am baffled by that. Now, I do get a lot of signs and you can do... Okay, so one of those common ways that spirit does speak to us and especially our pass loved ones are through license plates, now, I don't go looking at every single license plate, I'm just drawn, so maybe you're in traffic and then you get drawn to left...
0:14:45.7 S2: You get drawn to like... Right. Sometimes you're drawing and there's no message there that's okay, right, that just trying to get you to notice them, to understand the punches and the feelings that you get, so if you ever look and you feel guided and you don't see anything that's okay, just keep your eyes open, they're working with you. It's almost like going to the gym, and then they have to get that muscle going, you're not gonna be able to let a few pounds the first time you go, you might have to start off a little bit later and then work your way out, kind of think of it in that kind of way. So I do not look at every single license plate, and so what are the ads that I look... And then it says, You do it. Absolutely love it. Now, in February of 2020 that my aunt passed away, I got to go to Florida and I trained with the
0:15:32.8 S1: Amazing John Holland... We were there.
0:15:35.3 S2: Well, I was there. So if you know John Holland, he's amazing.
0:15:38.0 S1: Right. And I was at the resort that the class was gonna take place in, and I spent all day on the beach by myself, and I remember sitting there and I asked my mom, Mom, I want to know that you're with me. Please send me a dolphin, I wanna see a dolphin. Now, my mom loved Florida. She went to a vacation, my brother fell in love with it. And my Aunt Jo Jo was so heart-broken by my mom's passing that she said that my mom didn't go to heaven, my mom went to Florida, and she would write my mom letters and text messages and Facebook messages, and she would just talk to my mom as if she was in Florida. So Florida was a really special place, and now I'm here in Florida, and I really, really wanted to see a dolphin, and I waited... And it was a dolphin, but I know it takes some time. And so I just kind of know that when you ask for signs, you not get it right away, it might take a minute, they have the orchestrated behind the scenes, and I said to her out loud, I was like, Mom, but I want to see a real dolphin I don't wanna see someone wearing a dolphin shirt or something along those lines, usually all signs do come, but not in this case.
0:16:58.6 S1: In this case, I wanted a real dolphin, and I remember I got with the beach and I just was like, Mom, I know you would give me this dolphin, so I walked around the resort, went on a beautiful nature trail, all those things. And when I came back to the resort, I started talking with this girl, and all of a sudden line realized, oh my gosh, there's two dolphins out in the ocean, and they're swimming towards the dock... Right. I was like, This is crazy. It's so exciting, right? So I ran towards the dolphins, totally forgetting that I asked my mom to bring me a dolphin, right. And I'm standing here with this girl and the dolphins are getting closer and closer to us is not as close to where I could touch on, but still these dolphins are having a blast by the way, they are jumping... It's like they are talking to each other. They're trying to talk to us. It seems like it was fascinating, I've never ever seen dolphins in real life. Not this close up. So maybe that's typical, I don't know. But the girl I was saying next to had been there a zillion times and she was raised in Florida, and she's like, Wow.
0:18:05.6 S1: She was like, they're so close, they usually don't ever get this close, and she was like... And there's two of them, and then that's in all of a silent me, first off, I totally forgot that I asked my mom for a sign for dolphins, totally left my mind, totally forgot about it. And the second thing is that there were two dolphins, so now I know without a gal, that was my mom with an Juju and how the dolphins were playing were just the cherry on top, giving me a little bit that, hey, they're happy. They're having fun together, they're doing good. And I remember being such a profound experience when you get a sign, a past love one, you'll feel it, you might try to ask other people, Well, don't you think this, or don't you think that... What do you think about this? But don't do that, it's something really special with in your heart, only share it with those that you know are gonna be accepting of it.
0:19:02.7 S2: Because it's a miracle, it's amazing. And the more that you believe in that, the more you ask for them, the more you pay attention to them, then the more that you're gonna get...
0:19:15.4 S1: It's really, really remarkable. I will always remember that time, and I had pictures of that too, of the dolphins.
0:19:23.3 S2: So another really, really crazy, amazing story with my Aunt Jo Jo was...
0:19:31.4 S1: You might have heard this one for me before, but it is spectacular if you have it, and if you have your hearing for a reason, maybe you need to share this story with someone...
0:19:39.7 S2: I was sleeping in my own business now, now that I'm a very vivid dreamer, I can lose a Dream Act project, all those things, and I am sleeping, and all of a suddenly I feel a hand on my arm, my left arm, who in the world is touching me, my husband sleeps on the right side of me, I was like, Heather, you have to wake up because there is someone touching you.
0:20:03.5 S1: Wow, I finally got myself awake and I was mad, I was like, Who in the world is touching me when I sleep... Now, I have really good spiritual boundaries when I sleep, if I let them pass up on Spear guides, angels, the whole works are gonna be inside of my space trying to give me information, trying to help me, doing all this jazz, But I'm sensitive to their energy, so it's gonna keep me awake and I'm going to be tossing a journey all name. And so I was really mad because I say a prayer every night before I go to bed. And I say a prayer that says that only Archangel Michael, my mom in my grandma can allow who is inside of my space as I sleep, and now there's someone touching my arm who I know it is not my mom, and that my grandma... And I am really, really mad inside of my head, I am kind of yelling at spirit, I'm like, WTF, who's inside my space, blah, blah, blah, why did You allow this... All that stuff that I'm not put a uh, that much attention behind it...
0:21:01.6 S2: I met what I said. And then at that moment, I was like, look at the clock, look at the clock, look at the clock. And I looked at my alarm clock and the clock said 12, 13... That's when I realized 12-13. That's my and Judy's birthday. December 13th is my and Judy's birthday. I was like, No way. I was like, I am so so sorry. And Judy, I was like, I did not know what was human, of course it made sense because I said that my mom and grandma can allow who is a tall who was low inside of my space and end up being an wean. I'm like, Oh my gosh, she actually finally came, so I was really happy about that, because if any of you have a past love for one in spirit who maybe is a little bit more quiet when they were alive, who was maybe introverted... Right, you might have more subtle signs, right, so you might not have these big huge things that are happening, so my Aunt Judy didn't always need to be sent of retention it, she was in a quiet side for the most part, she wasn't like all over the place, and crazy.
0:22:14.1 S2: So her sins are gonna be low... Marsalis, like my Uncle Tom clear.
0:22:19.6 S1: I feel like you only said a couple of words each day that I knew him, I was... It's so funny thinking back on it.
0:22:27.8 S2: So just to know you, my head of suitable signs, if you have someone that's a little bit more... I wanna say crazy, but life of the party, you might have some of the walls, more crazier signs. And I absolutely love that I actually had a dream of my Anjan Uncle town together, and they were just looking at me and they were smiling, they were together in absolute law visitation dream. So if you're dreaming of your past love one, it's amazing, and a lot of times they don't say anything to you because they are telepathically talking to you, so they're speaking to you through impressions, through feelings and that kind of thing. So even though they didn't say anything, I felt it in my heart that they were happy that they were finally together, isn't that so... So sweet.
0:23:14.3 S1: I know, I'm probably forgetting some more of the signs, for example, I found two coins sitting on my dining room table, I play... I was my dining table. Maybe I put them there afterwards... Anyways, I found you points, and I remember I had just told my group, if you find coins, look at the date just in case, and it was really funny because the date that was on 1 on was 1986, and that was the year that my grandfather passed away. My Aunt Jo Jews father, the other coin, I believe in 1962 on it. And I was like, I don't know who was born in 1962, so I went ahead and put a shout out to my family who was born in 1962, and one of my aunts replies like, Wow, the only person that I know that was born then was... And Judy, I was like, Oh my gosh, what are the ads that I find to a coin together? One is from 1985 and one is from 1962. That is amazing, isn't it? Okay, I'm gonna tell you this one more. This Angie was alive, but it kind of connects the coins, like Why would he send me that? She is sending me two coins to let me know that she's with her dad, but why would you send that...
0:24:33.0 S1: And I think I know the reason why when my mom went back into the hospital, she was discharged and then she went back into the hospital, she was in a very, very horrible wing of the hospital, it was not set up for oncology patients, it had broken doors in the room, we were in a stock room, I don't know, I had a toll paper and everything, it was horrible, but I trust that my mom was there for a reason, and I needed to figure out the reason why my mom was there, when the care was horrible. It was not good, and I was trying to figure it out, and I was like, spirit, I need to know why my mom is here, and it was probably later on that day, I get a call or a text from an Judy and she was like, Oh my gosh, Heather, do you know the name of the wing that your mom is in right now, and I was like, No, what's the name? What's the name? Allen are... So my mom's name is Ellen, and her father's name is Ernest right. Now, the wing of the hospital is named Ellen...
0:25:40.6 S1: Earnest without the second E. So it was like Ernst, the name was in memory of lanes, what are the odds that my mom's name is Allen and that her dad's name is Earnest and... And Judi saw it. She sent a picture of it and sent it to me, and then I was like, Wow. So I ran into the room and I told my mom, I said, Your dad is with you, your dad is with you. And I know that she was happy and excited about it, and I said, Mom, I was like, This is awesome, it's a really, really cool... So you don't have to worry, you just know that you're taken care of, and so then... So now when I get the coins with my aunt or your birth on it, and then the year that my grandfather... Her father passed away, it was just like, Wow. Is confirmation that she is also with him as well, and these little signs are with you all of the time, it's just number one, being open to them. The second thing is really going to be paying attention being in the moment so that you can see those things.
0:26:53.3 S1: Right, so you can see those license plates, so that you can see those coins, so you could take a minute to look at the year on the coin, so that you can go ahead and figure out why you're in one place. What did you need to learn? Is there a coincidence or a secret or see around that will actually show you why you're there, and then again, I cannot say this enough, the more that you believe and the more that you trust, the more that you'll keep sending them to you... Think about it this way, they're trying to get your attention, they're trying to send you a message, and if they're not getting through to you, they're gonna try different ways, but if you're starting to notice on, they're going to start talking to more and more and more and more and more.
0:27:36.4 S2: I hope that makes sense to you, and I really hope that telling you the story of my... And Jojo has opened up your eyes to maybe some of the coincidences or the signs and you've gotten from your past loved ones, and then you could always ask them for science too, just make sure that you pay attention and make sure that you remember that you ask them for the signs, and then give me a little bit of time, and then if you do get one after a couple of days, then go ahead and ask them for a different sign because you don't know what's going on behind the scenes, and it might be kind of difficult for them to manifest what you're asking for. Okay, so maybe start off with little things like I did my mom say, Hey, send me a Golson and be on a look out for all different kinds of dolphins, right. Dolphins on people's shirts or on pictures are paintings, and then try it out and see how it goes, and I cannot wait to hear them, so definitely write a review for the show and then put in there one of your spirit stories, or you could go ahead and join my rise into your power group on Facebook, and then spill the beans with all of your spirit stories, and you can also go to speak pipe dot com, the spiritual AF life, and then you can leave a recording of a spiritual sign that you got and that I could share here on Fridays episodes with spirit stories.
0:29:03.6 S1: It's been great talking to you and I hope we have a great weekend.
