Ep. 99 - The Mirror of Time: Reflections of Home (ft. Christine Rodriguez)
In this episode, Christine Rodriguez sits down with Daniel for a thoughtful conversation that blends storytelling with personal reflection. Their discussion touches on how painful experiences can be transformed into sources of healing and creativity, offering listeners a glimpse into the emotional landscape that shaped the Mirror of Time “Home” series.
Rather than diving into the heaviest topics, this episode serves as a reflective piece, particularly focusing on how the concept of "home" has been weaved into the series. Christine's connection with Daniel adds a personal touch, making the conversation feel familiar and engaging. Together, they explore the idea that "home" goes beyond a physical space, often represented by the people who offer comfort and sanctuary during challenging times.
These reflections are both nostalgic and insightful, offering listeners a chance to consider how their own experiences shape their understanding of home. The episode also touches on the cyclical nature of life, reminding us that our journeys often bring us back to the core themes of love, loss, and rediscovery.
By focusing on these universal experiences, the episode invites listeners to reflect on their own lives and the role that storytelling can play in personal growth and understanding. It's a conversation that balances authenticity with creative expression, leaving listeners with a sense of connection and introspection.

Is your series called Mirror of Time.
Speaker 2:Are we really doing this again?
Speaker 1:It's home.
Speaker 2:The mini series is the Mirror of Well. No.
Speaker 1:Your podcast is Timeless Spirituality.
Speaker 2:Yes, my podcast is Timeless Spirituality. It's the Mirror of Time home series, which is the overall theme or arc for season four.
Speaker 1:I listened to four hours of this. I don't know how I don't know this, but I do now.
Speaker 2:That's on me for not being clear.
Speaker 1:Yeah, to be fair, it seems a little complicated, but anyway, welcome back to Timeless Spirituality Podcast. My voice is different than Daniel's. My name is Christine Rodriguez and I am a longtime friend of Daniel's and I feel so grateful to be invited on yet again to be a host and an interviewer. To get more into the mind of the creator of this amazing series, how are you?
Speaker 2:I'm blushing. That was great, thank you. It's weird to hear.
Speaker 1:I loved the series and I'm so interested in knowing how people experience the series not knowing you. I think that for me it was such an incredible experience getting to know you in a deeper way and to hear how you perceive things and what your eyes go to when you enter the room and how you recall things. Like I have a bunch of questions just in terms of like, how did you manage to remember these things? Or why do you remember certain aspects and elements, and were these actual journal entries? Like I have a lot of questions on a personal level and I am so interested, like as the folks listening who don't necessarily know you personally, I'm sure it's just it's. It's such a fantastic story to be brought along with and I really enjoyed it.
Speaker 1:I know that everyone else is enjoying it too, and there's a part of me that wishes I could kind of have both. Like I want to experience it as someone who doesn't know you and then I also want to experience it as someone who does, but it's great nonetheless and I was messaging you while I was listening to it it takes you through the full spectrum of human emotion where there's like curiosity, there's nostalgia, sadness, I cried, I laughed, like all of this is legitimate, like 100%, and so I just feel like having the goals of a writer, I imagine that that's such a huge thing to accomplish and I just really want to applaud you on that because it it truly, it truly impressed me. Thank.
Speaker 2:Thank you.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:It's weird hearing that. I know that sounds so weird for me to be saying, but it's so weird to sit here fully well aware that we're talking about a piece that I wrote and that you're commenting on a piece that I wrote and saying those wonderful things. It's just, it's weird for me to hear I mean, it's great, don't get me wrong, but it's, I'm still not used to it. It seems very foreign.
Speaker 1:It's not fiction. You're sharing your life and you're feeling, you're experiencing or, excuse me, you're sharing real experiences that you had and it is something that you wrote, but it's also very much a performance, like, as you go through the storytelling, you're using your voice in different ways. You're. To me it's like it's it's a writing, yes, but to me it felt much more as like a storytelling, like experience.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean, you got to make it interesting or fun to listen to, totally. So, yeah, there were some creative liberties that I took while never making anything up. It was all nonfiction. But well, the things that weren't real I called out in this story, like for part three, when the liver came in, they didn't actually descend from helicopters and blow out the windows.
Speaker 1:No one cradled it like a baby.
Speaker 2:No one cradled it like a baby and the doctor was not wearing bell bottoms. Those were just some creative liberties that I took. People weren't doing somersaults. No one was pulling out their catheters, which I was getting a kick out of when I was writing that part. It just seemed very funny to me.
Speaker 1:Totally.
Speaker 2:And I think in those moments you just have to have some fun with it, because you are dealing with a very deep subject matter.
Speaker 1:So deep, so tragic, and I was curious for that story specifically. I mean through the series, is it? Is it currently it's going to be a five part series, but four parts are currently public, correct?
Speaker 2:Correct.
Speaker 1:And so in those four parts that you've released so far, I mean, there are some that are more kind of like curiosity or self-reflective, and then there's like, for example, like the second one for me was just like humorous, hilarious other elements and of course, but it stood out to me as particularly being funny. And then of course, the third session was incredibly sad and like heartbreaking and just like totally emotional, emotionally inducing. But just very briefly, before we get into the actual topics of each session and just kind of going through your creative process and what made you choose the experiences that you did, et cetera, was it a therapeutic experience? Like, was it therapeutic to sit down and talk about some of these major life events and share them in the way that you did?
Speaker 2:Very much so. It was an incredibly cathartic experience to write it and then to put it out there to the world, which is something that's been very daunting. To me is very daunting being that vulnerable.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:And really putting it out there, because even in these four parts, if no one has met me and they only listened to these four episodes of the entire series and when I say series I mean just the podcast I feel like someone would picture me to be someone who just had all water signs in their chart and just this emotional mess who was just always crying and I don't feel that way. Well, you know me.
Speaker 1:That's true, that's so true. Okay, go ahead.
Speaker 2:So it's been weird to incorporate elements into it that are fully true but not fully me, because the other parts that I didn't incorporate wouldn't fit into the story. So I'm not just a bumbling mess all the time because I think I cried in every episode, that there were moments like that and I'm not usually a crier but there were other things that just didn't fit. I know it's kind of weird to even bring that up and go in that direction, but sacrificing those parts of myself for the intention of delivering the story. Of course I'm not talking about bad parts of myself, but it's like I don't need to talk about when I was in school plays or when I did X, y or Z. Does that make sense?
Speaker 1:Yeah, but I mean, I think that kind of goes along the lines of getting into why you chose the experiences that you did, because the experiences that you chose were all very emotional and transformative and had a huge impact on you and your development. And it's not like you chose different experiences where your development and it's not like you chose different experiences where I mean, for example, you didn't choose to talk about when you became a past life regressionist, how that experience took shape and what your process was. I mean, you allude to it and you talk about being a past life regressionist, but the experiences that you chose are all incredibly like heart centered and kind of strike you in the heart. And I just want to say this and I think we talked about it on the previous segment that we did together is that I am an astrologer.
Speaker 1:I'm the host of astrology now podcast. That's how Daniel and I know each other, and so I am very fixated on astrology and in the Vedic system, the fourth house is the house of the home, but it's also the house of your heart and your heart center and your inner satisfaction, inner happiness, and so I thought it was so interesting that you did this entire series on home. And then there's also this connection to like, fulfillment and happiness, and really what like strikes us in the heart. So I'm just kind of curious what? What made you choose the experiences that you did for each of your sessions?
Speaker 2:I let my mind and my fingers take me wherever they went. I had a baseline. Something would pop into my mind and I would just write about it. I mean, that's really just how it went. Oh, I remember when this thing happened. Yeah, I can see how that fits, so I write about it. Oh, I remember when this thing happened. Yeah, I can see how that fits, so I write about it. Oh, I remember how this thing happened. Yeah, I can see how that fits. Oh, let's write about it. Oh, I remember this thing that happened. That doesn't fit. I'm not going to write about it.
Speaker 1:So did you have several different events pop up and then you boiled it down Because you didn't talk about that many events in your life.
Speaker 2:You really only honed in on a few. There were events that popped up that I just felt didn't really fit, got it. And this will not be the only thing that I write for the podcast where I go into detail and something in my life. But this felt like the most natural place to go first, because the Mirror of Time episodes are episodes that are about me, although the other ones have pretty much been standalone, although I do write them in a way where they weave together when you listen to them, so they do tell a story if you listen in order. But I think it was that expression of home and creativity that just came so naturally in this moment where I'm like I'm ready to be vulnerable in a way that I've never been before and just open about my experience in a way that just scares the shit out of me.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:And that's a lot of the reason I also put you know, as you call it the pizza one in the first episode. The one where I almost took my life, is because I didn't want to spend months just terrified of putting that out Like I wanted to get it out at the beginning of the series, because I would just be kicking the can down the road if I didn't put that one in the first one.
Speaker 1:Do you feel shame around having suicidal ideation?
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:What made you feel nervous to share it?
Speaker 2:Because there is still stigma around it. I'm accepting of everyone in their situation, whatever that may be.
Speaker 1:Totally, you are.
Speaker 2:But when I hear something like that, I will always think of the person in that light, not in a negative way, like I'm not going to judge them for it, but I'll always remember oh, this person went through that thing yeah and I just Didn't know if I wanted to be associated with that.
Speaker 2:You know it's, it's not a bad thing, I don't have any shame surrounding it. But I'm like, do I really want to go there? And I thought to myself you know it's, it's not a bad thing, I don't have any shame surrounding it. But I'm like, do I really want to go there? And I thought to myself you know what? Yeah, because I don't think it's just about right now. I think that this is for the future as well, and by going there now, I'm opening the door in the future for me to feel more comfortable in just sharing about these experiences, and it's something that will just come so much more seamlessly where I won't have to really talk about it through writing as opposed to oh yeah, I can just talk about this in a conversation.
Speaker 1:Yeah, totally yeah.
Speaker 1:I mean I think what you're saying has a lot of merit just in terms of like, especially as a practitioner and as a healer, putting out really vulnerable things about ourselves, it can have an impact on how people view us and perceive us, and I think that maybe we talked about this last time.
Speaker 1:I think it's so important to remember that everyone who we work with in regards to healing I mean, I guess not everyone, but maybe like 97% of healers have gone through extremely challenging situations, and it's like you can't guide people down a path that you haven't trekked down before. If you put me in the woods and you say, take somebody down this path, I'd be like I have no idea where I am, how am I supposed to get there? But if I've gone down the path and I know where the logs are and I know where the landmarks are, it's like okay, I know exactly how to get them there. And so when we move through really heavy things, like you know, suicidal ideation and I think getting in touch with our own purpose and our own mission I mean that's a very profound experience to have. That, I think, gives everyone a really powerful skillset to help other people, and so I think it's just important to remind people of that and any healer that you work with again, 97% of the time they've moved through extremely heavy circumstances.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's okay. If anyone's having those thoughts, it's okay. Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 1:I hope you don't follow through, but it's, it's okay. Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you meant having thoughts like judging you. I didn't realize you were talking about suicidal ideation.
Speaker 2:Oh no, I was talking about suicidal ideation, yeah. Yeah, I mean, that's um no, no one should judge me.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:But also, I mean like for you. You know talking about your experience and your story with suicidal ideation. Something that stood out to me when I was listening to the first segment was that you had so much pressure building up on you, you notice that you were the odd ball out. You felt behind in life. You were watching all of your friends develop and, you know, building something that you didn't necessarily have access to. There were just so many things that you mentioned that were adding to this feeling of weight and pressure and dissatisfaction in yourself.
Speaker 1:But the straw that broke the camel's back was that you woke up in the morning and you were like living for pizza, literally, and you like went to go find pizza and it wasn't there. And that was what kind of broke you. And it goes through the experience of you like getting in the car and like driving and contemplating where you might want to leave your body, you know, and you're like, okay, well, I don't want to leave my body for a kid to fight. I don't want to do this. And then there's this moment where you get exasperated and you fall on the ground. What is it that really changed your mind that day? Like what is it where you really were. Like you know, I'm just going to go home and I'm going to keep fighting.
Speaker 2:Like you know, I'm just going to go home and I'm going to keep fighting. I think this is where terminology gets wonky. I didn't feel like I was alone that day. I feel like that there was something there with me. I know in that episode I said that it was my voice that I heard and while that is true, I did hear my voice in my head saying like you can't die, I think it was something else that was talking to me and I'm not going to label whatever that thing is because I don't know. I'm not going to sit here and say, oh, it was God, it was Jesus, it was my guides, it was angels, I don't know. I don't think it really matters, because I felt the presence of something else.
Speaker 2:And when I talked about the visual of someone being there and it's like your two best friends are there throwing your arms over their shoulders as they're carrying you what I was really trying to say is that I think that there was something there with me helping me to my feet that day, whether or not they were physically doing it I mean, it was probably all me but I don't think that I was alone. I think that something was projecting that image into me to let me know that I wasn't alone in that. I wasn't ready to go yet, I don't know. It was the feeling that there was more, I had to keep fighting and that it wasn't time to go. The things I didn't bring up, though, is that it only got worse from there Like it massively got worse from there and what I had to go through clawing my way back from that, but I wouldn't trade that experience for anything, because it showed me another side of humanity that was very dark, but I think I had to understand what that looked like in order to have a fuller picture of humanity and understanding people at their core.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and understanding power in a way that I don't think I ever had until that moment, and not power that I felt, but seeing others abuse their power and knowing that, however powerful someone else may be, they ain't got nothing on me, because it's about that internal power. You can flex that power from the outside, but I think it's that internal strength that you have that really makes the difference at the end of the day, and if you can push through those hard moments and have that fortitude, then you're set. Now, that's not me saying it's like it's going to be all rainbows and butterflies, but I don't think it's about just this life. I think it's about the totality of all and the experience, and that when we go to the other side, or wherever that may be, and we're looking back on the experiences we had in any given life and what we learned, I think that's where the real beauty is, and if you don't go through those moments, then I don't think you're really learning.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you know, it's really interesting because I was contemplating this at length recently about addiction and I feel that there are really similar overlaps I mean, particularly in the conclusion that you and I both came to is that I was thinking that people who overcome addiction, they have this sort of fortitude in their spirit. That's just unbreakable, I mean. And having suicidal ideation, I mean it's very similar. There is a part of your mind that is against you and wants to destroy you, and every day is a war between the part of you that wants to seize your life and survive and then this part of you that's trying to take you down. Rather that be suicidal ideation or addictive tendencies, and I thought that what you said was very astute and that it doesn't.
Speaker 1:There's a period of time where it's not easy. It's like every day is a war. There can be one winner. Who's going to win the battle, you know, and so it's like that lasts for a while until there's kind of this final victory moment. And so I just think that it's very powerful to hear you say that, and I think it's very powerful for the audience too, you know, if they're listening to your content and they find that they've, like, moved through experiences similar. It's so important not to give up and that there is, you know, a dawn coming, but it doesn't necessarily happen right away. Sometimes it takes a lot of work and consistency.
Speaker 2:What do you?
Speaker 1:think.
Speaker 2:I agree, I fully agree, and I think the truth is I'm still waiting for that dawn. Because there are days I wouldn't say I have the same suicidal ideation the way that I did back then. But there are days when I'm like you know what, I'd rather just not be here right now. I would really just rather be elsewhere. Like this sucks. But also when those moments come up, I remind myself that this is nothing compared to what I made it through. Like this is nothing. But on the other side of that there's always that very low level fear that I haven't experienced the worst yet and that there may be a time in my life where something like that pops up again. But no, I'll make it through. If it comes, I'll make it through.
Speaker 2:And I don't know if, if I'll ever fully see the dawn, because I just don't know if, if that's what this place is for and when I say this place I mean earth and I don't know if that's what this place is for, and when I say this place I mean Earth. And I don't want anyone to think that I'm just a pessimist or completely cynical and that I don't think that you can find pure joy and happiness here. I mean sure, maybe, but I just don't fully think that it's supposed to be, like I said, rainbows and butterflies. I think this place is the night, a lot of the time that you are going through the heaviness and darkness, but it's for something bigger. I know that's probably not the most popular thing for me to say, being in a place of helping uplift people, but I'm just going to be real.
Speaker 1:Things can be great, but you can also have fun at night while waiting for the dawn yeah, well, I mean, I think that's something that I heard that was really important was talking about this sense of purpose, and I know that it sounds flippant, but it's like comparing it to the pizza, right, because it's like when you got home, you were like I was looking for the pizza and your friends were like we wrapped it up and put it in the fridge for you, and the segment ended by you saying the pizza was there all along.
Speaker 1:You know, it's like the reason to live was there all along, the reason to keep going was there all along, and I think that that's really important too, and I think that it's like. I think that when we have higher purpose and when we have higher mission, it really alleviates some of the darkness for me in my own life at least, and I mean for people who feel very deeply, for people who are like very emotional and very sensitive and very empathetic and taking on other people's energy and acting as a healer, I mean like it really can get dark and it really can feel heavy, and I don't. I totally understand what you're saying just in terms of not everything is rainbows and butterflies, but I do think that when we're in touch with purpose and we feel in alignment. It, though things may feel dark and though things may feel heavy, there's so much more energy and will to kind of continue through it. Does that make sense?
Speaker 2:Mm-hmm. Oh, definitely yeah, I didn't have that at the time, I didn't have purpose yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and I just wanted to like draw that for the audience too, though, because, like, if they're experiencing sadness and grief, it's like something that you were alluding to is. It's like getting in touch with their purpose as a way to kind of fuel life.
Speaker 2:But I also don't want anyone to think that if you haven't found your purpose yet, that it's going to be perfect once you do, because I believe that I found my purpose. But I still have those days where I'm like, oh, but it's better now. It is better now than it was. There is no doubt about that. Yes, as you guys hear me talk about a lot, there's belief, in fact that is a very strong opinion that I have that it is better. But it is my life, so I'm going to say that it's as close to a fact as you're going to get or knowing. Things are better, and I I relate a lot of that to just having purpose, but I'm bunch.
Speaker 1:Is there anything else along the lines of that specific story that you feel need to be shared or captured? I feel like it's so sensitive. I want to make sure that we, like, cover it entirely, but I have other questions too.
Speaker 2:I would just say believe in yourself. I mean, it seems so overly simplistic to say that, but I think, hearing in my head that day, like you can't die, the only reason that hit on some level was because I I believed in myself on some level, some level that I still wasn't aware of. Because if that wasn't the case, then why would I have continued to live, if I didn't believe that in one way or another? Because it wasn't with a question mark at the end. Like you can't die that's my Ron Burgundy moment that didn't hit. You know, with the teleprompter. Impersonations are that's my Ron Burgundy moment that didn't hit, you know, with the teleprompter.
Speaker 1:Impersonations are terrible.
Speaker 2:I love you. I wasn't trying to be spot on, it's kind of more PB Herman there.
Speaker 1:Twice and I was like Daniel, I was my joker Was that better.
Speaker 2:What Was my joker better?
Speaker 1:Yeah, actually I knew exactly all of those imitations that you did. I knew exactly all of those imitations that you did. I knew exactly who you were the Yoda one. I was like I knew who you were imitating. I was just like, and then you did it again what was I saying?
Speaker 1:I started thinking you were saying to believe in yourself and there was yeah, and there was something else too about that first segment is that you were talking about how you were behind in life and you know you weren't fitting in, and there are all these other things happening and it's like, regardless of the timeline of others, you came back to the point of believing in your own life and your own schedule.
Speaker 2:I think something else that's really important to point out is about circles, and I think circle is the answer to everything, and I was very intentional about what I put in that first one so interesting because I didn't outline it at first but I knew what the middle of the story was and then I solidified parts one and five after I solidified part three, and then two and four was pretty much filling in the blanks. So I think that it's important to point out that everything is a circle. I still don't fully know what that means. It's just that feeling I get and with that everything comes full circle at the end. I was very intentional, especially with the very, very end of for part five, which you guys haven't heard yet at this point, and that's why I chose to end it with the very, very end of for part five, which you guys haven't heard yet at this point, and that's why I chose to end it with the pizza, with that line that it was there all along, because when you listen to part five, if you go back and listen to part one, you'll see that it was there all along. This is like where I kind of get giddy and excited.
Speaker 2:As someone who's a tad creative, I was excited at the prospect of laying out the concept of we're going to explore home, but having the listener have no idea where I was going to take this thing at any given time like oh, you're gonna talk about home. Oh, you're talking about killing yourself right now. Oh, you're talking about home. We're talking about a yogurt shop. Oh, you're talking about killing yourself right now. Oh, you're going to talk about home. We were talking about a yogurt shop. Oh, you're talking about home right now. Oh, you're in a hospital watching your stepmother pass away, you know. So on and so forth. I'm going to bring that up too, because, with that intention, it wasn't just about me.
Speaker 2:I was very intentional for the listener as well, because I want everyone to start taking stock of their lives and paying attention to those things that have been there all along and where those full circle moments really come into play, in that sometimes all you got to do is go look in the refrigerator the one place you didn't look and then that pizza will be there, and that was the obvious place for it to be was in the refrigerator, because that also just would have been stupid if I was eating pizza that had been left out all night. The one place I didn't look, though, it was there all along. So, yeah, that's what I posed to everyone. Have you really taken stock of your lives? And I'm still learning about mine. I'm not sitting here saying this from a pedestal. Things become clearer every day. I'm still figuring it out.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah. And so, with that being said, though, with talking about home and the things you chose to talk about, one of the main I mean it got its entire segment was Ava, the ice cream store, and how attached you became to this ice cream parlor and how you and your friends would go and then it closed down, and then there was a wake and I mean it was a huge, long lasting relationship and it also revived. I mean, you guys broke up, you got back together, disappeared again. I mean, it was like this long, tragic tale about this ice cream shop.
Speaker 2:Longest relationship I've ever been in. And also it's frozen yogurt, it's not ice cream.
Speaker 1:I'm so sorry, frozen. Wait, what was it? Blended magic?
Speaker 2:Blended magic. Yeah, I probably should have talked about that more in the episode. The reason I brought that up is because the way that they do it is by putting a base in and then they blend the toppings in, which is really cool, so it's like you get it in each bite, as opposed to when you go to a normal yogurt place, when they just put the toppings on top and I guess that's what they're supposed to be it's called toppings, it's not mixings. But when you really blend it in it's fucking magic, it's so good. But when you really blend it in it's fucking magic, it's so good.
Speaker 1:I loved when you were talking about having like, first of all, like Adam and Eve, owning it was hilarious.
Speaker 2:I was laughing so hard. Their names weren't really Adam and Eve.
Speaker 1:Do you know their names? Yeah, don't let it, don't tell us, I don't want to know, I just want to know them as Adam and Eve. But you can tell other people later. But for you can tell other people later, but for my sake I don't want to know. There's a part where you were talking to Eve and she, like asked you about your work and you said you were a past life regressionist and she was kind of stunned. And then you go back the next day and she, she brings it up and she's like I've never heard anything as interesting or as unique as that. And then this elderly woman was asking you like what, are you a hairdresser? And you were like this is the most basic job ever, essentially, and just how you captured her character I loved. But I guess it's like what made you decide to include her? What made you decide to include that elderly?
Speaker 2:lady in that interaction you had, because that was a very life-defining moment for me.
Speaker 1:Interesting.
Speaker 2:I don't remember if I brought this up in the piece, because it's been a while since I've listened to that episode. As we're recording this now, what is this? August 30th of 2024?. I wrote that a year and a half ago, yeah, and I think I did the recording probably about eight or nine months ago, so I don't fully remember everything that's in it, but had that moment happened a couple of years earlier, it would have destroyed me, because I still hadn't built up that courage to speak about what I was doing as a past life regressionist. Did I bring this up in the episode? I don't remember. Did I bring this up in the episode?
Speaker 1:I don't remember. I think that you may have alluded to it, but you didn't. You did not go into depth in that. Being asked that question, like you said, you were, like I, have grown accustomed to how to react. You made a comment about how it's like it's happened to you enough that you know how to respond when people are surprised.
Speaker 2:It took me a while to become comfortable with telling people that I was a past life regressionist. And to see someone react in utter repulsion that way, with ogre, you know, oozing over their lip, I mean, that was a new one, just the utter repulsion. And it was like I don't want to go as far as saying like a demon, but when you like, imagine a demon having shit coming out of their mouth. It's scary. So I think I included it because that really was one of those moments where I learned something about myself that I could walk away laughing about it, as opposed to oh, I don't ever want to talk about this again, I don't want to do this job. If people are going to react that way, is this how everyone thinks? But she was just the one who couldn't hide it. And being able to look at it through a new lens, which was, oh, that was great. I'm going to have a great story to tell one day. Which was, oh, that was great, I'm going to have a great story to tell one day.
Speaker 2:But more than that, it happened at my home, away from home, because that was the reason I decided to include that whole entry about the yogurt place. I was fortunate to not come from a broken home, but I've talked to many people who have, and I wanted to show that home doesn't necessarily need to be the house where you grew up, but you can find places that are like home to you. I meant it that day when that yogurt shop closed up the first time. That was one of the saddest days of my life. I felt just this emptiness when I couldn't go back. There was just something so comforting about always knowing that it was there to cheer me up when I needed it. It happened at my home, away from home, and I think location is a big factor in where we experience certain things. I had my my politician moment there, where I was just sounding very lofty without fully going into that. Did you know that milk comes from cows?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I know, milk is a dairy product. It comes from a bovine creature.
Speaker 2:Did you know my next door neighbor had three rabbits. That's from Jerry Maguire.
Speaker 1:Okay, okay.
Speaker 2:Okay, what was I talking about again? About place, right.
Speaker 1:You were talking about dude. I actually have no idea, because you started kind of going off and I was like having a hard time following you.
Speaker 2:Oh, about location.
Speaker 1:Oh, okay, go ahead.
Speaker 2:There were a lot of things I learned about myself by visiting that yogurt store. I included the part about talking to Eve because you never know what you're going to learn about someone if you just take a few minutes to talk about them or, sorry, talk to them, because when I'm really getting to know someone in a session, I really get to know someone in their life story. They tell me things about themselves that I've never told anyone and I'm grateful that they trust me on that level. But where that also leaves me is not wanting to have much deep interaction outside of those moments or the people that I already know. So I just want to eat my yogurt most of the time. But taking a few minutes to talk to her and get to know her a little bit, just those couple of times it really taught me that there's so much more that you can learn about someone who you've seen for such a long time, because at that point, like over 30 years. Those couple of times it really taught me that there's so much more that you can learn about someone who you've seen for such a long time because at that point like over 30 years and really know nothing about them. But it doesn't take much to get to know them on a deeper level. Had I not taken the time to talk to her, I probably would have been much more resentful when ownership changed, because I got to know the person more and understand why she was ready to part with this place.
Speaker 2:That was such a big part of her life and her and her husband opened it still at that point, over 30 years earlier I mean actually closer to what was that?
Speaker 2:2021, when they sold it. So, yeah, 37 years, and here I am. I mean, the whole point of this series is my attachment to my house, a place that I didn't build from the ground up, that I hadn't nurtured to life for its existence. But I think when you own a business, it becomes your baby, and when you build that from the ground up, it is your baby, and when you build that from the ground up, it it is your, your baby. And just spending a few minutes, a few times, talking to her and understanding that she was going to get to see her daughter more, who lived in northern california selling the store, was going to give her that opportunity and, I don't know, maybe she has grandchildren now that she gets to spend more time with as a result of that, so. So once ownership changed over, it was easier for me to let go of that part, because I knew the person.
Speaker 1:Totally Interesting and like you had compassion and something that really stood out to me as well throughout the entire series is that you mentioned repeatedly how lucky you are to have the parents that you do, and so I'm sure that there's like a big element of empathy there where your dad, for example, like he went to go to New York for work and he made a special point to come out and see you, and so I'm sure that it was very easy for you to see like oh, she's spending more time with her daughter and kind of resonate with that in regards to how your parents showed up for you.
Speaker 2:I never made that connection until now. That's really interesting that you bring that up.
Speaker 1:Oh well, I think it's really beautiful, you know, because it really helps you understand and like put yourself in her shoes in terms of what she's wanting to accomplish and how she's wanting to show up for her daughter, and it makes a lot of sense.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I kind of miss her now. It's weird I would always just shoo off and not want to talk and now I kind of miss seeing her behind. I hope she's doing well.
Speaker 1:Good, okay, so for the third session, you talk about another very traumatic experience for you, a hardship that was extremely challenging losing your stepmother.
Speaker 1:And you know, what stood out to me was that you really kind of set things up talking about when she came into your father's life and how she had such a profound impact on you when you were experiencing like the suicidal thoughts and having like moving through the darker, heavier emotions, and she was able to see you and perceive you in a way that your parents didn't necessarily have the ability to. I think it's like when we're so close to something, sometimes it's harder to see things objectively because you know like when you're with your parents they see you all the time and like they know you so well. But then this other figure kind of comes in and was able to see you in a different light and see you in a way that helped you feel recognized and that can be like so therapeutic. And I know that Linda had this, this impact on you that was very profound and therapeutic. And then, how, how long did you know her until she passed away?
Speaker 2:I had known her for 14 years at that point.
Speaker 1:Wow, and she was like, I mean, she had a great relationship with your mother. It seemed like she really was like a second mother kind of figure for you.
Speaker 2:Oh, very much. Yeah, we were very close.
Speaker 1:So, when you were choosing to write about that, what made you choose the details that you did when creating the third segment?
Speaker 2:So, as a writer, like I said, first, third, fifth were solidified Circle I made a very intentional choice to put that third and to have it be the backbone of the entire series, because it's like if you're looking at it as a three-act structure, first two parts are really your first act. In this case it shouldn't be normally, but then it really was the heart of the story because it really comes full circle at the end.
Speaker 2:Interesting and that was also the next step in what does home look like when it's not four walls that you live in? And the first episode being not really feeling that I fit in anywhere. So, even though I had a home, it was like I felt homeless. That's why I called it vagabond. And the second episode being well, maybe a place can feel like home even if it's not your home. And then the third one is illustrating the personal component. When can a person look like home? So it became a natural vehicle for that. But at the same time, that was the most life altering experience that I've had and, if you're looking at it astrologically, this was right before my Saturn return.
Speaker 1:Wow.
Speaker 2:And I was having. I don't know if it was exact at this point, but you know, for Vedic, my K2 and Rahu were in the opposite of their nodal placements. So you know for yeah, in Western it would be my North and south node were in opposition to each other that transit sucks yeah in western.
Speaker 2:It's in my eighth house, so it was literal death that I was experiencing, but also the death of a way of being and coming out of it so differently on the other side, because that's where I really touched on feeling a presence that I can't fully explain and I talked about in that third episode, because it's these things existing outside of yourself, because home is four walls that contain you, that shelter you, but what about what you can't see? Is there something holding you that's not home? I think it was also just very important to honor Linda and everything she had done for me and let that legacy live on, because even after you're gone, your physical body may die, but you never do. What about the people who you have an impact on?
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:And I truly believe that it was going through that experience that really served as the catalyst for me to become a past life regressionist. Now, it's not to say I wouldn't have found it at some point had I not gone through that, but I did. That's what opened me up to a lot more of this to explore it more.
Speaker 1:Because it's like what happens when you die. It's like the natural question when you lose a loved one is it's like well, they were right here and now they're not.
Speaker 2:Exactly. And now you and me are here having this. Is it you and me or you and I? I probably should know that you and I, I'm going to stick you and me because you know I want to be a rebel. So now you I got to say you and I you and I are now here having this conversation that's going to be listened to about three or four people, or, if my audience is big that day, about seven. Is that not funny? I heard that joke once before and I thought it was funny. I think it was Rick D's on Kiss FM in the mornings. He used to talk about their audience of radio station LA.
Speaker 1:That's hilarious.
Speaker 2:So you know, for all seven of you listening right now.
Speaker 1:Maybe I'll pick that up for the two of you who come back every week.
Speaker 2:Right. So for the seven of you who may be listening right now, I don't know for sure, but I can point to Linda and say that had that not happened when it did, I may not be talking to you right now, we may not be having this conversation that you guys are listening to right now, even though she was gone, it was a catalyst and the person felt like home and she was gone. She will always be with me and live on through me, through my experiences and each and every one of you who may take something away from this and then pass that on to someone else. I don't know the lineage of what made Linda become Linda, but something came before Linda and, yes, I knew her parents, so it may have been them, but it also may have been a teacher, it may have been a friend that impacted her in that way and made her who she is. So home may just look a little different than what you think it is.
Speaker 1:Yeah, absolutely Well, and I was kind of thinking about that.
Speaker 1:You know, whenever you were talking about home, I actually took some notes because I was like, oh, this is something to just like write about later. But it's just like home is a container and it's something that contains us, it's something that keeps us safe, it's something that's consistently there for us to return to, and it's like I can think of so many people in my life who feel like home in that regard. And it sounds like Linda was completely that and I loved in the grander sense of course she will continue living through you just in how she influenced you and influenced your life and your profession and the people that you're helping. I mean all of it is inspired by her presence in your life. But then even just the smaller things about learning her humor and how she enjoyed like playing with people, and how she brought a fart machine to the dinner party and like all of that I mean she just sounds so I totally see why you resonate. She sounds so similar to you in a lot of ways, you know.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean she was great Like I miss her every day and I'm confident she's still here with me, though.
Speaker 1:Totally, you can feel it.
Speaker 2:Mm-hmm.
Speaker 1:Yeah Well, I definitely recommend that segment. I mean, I recommend all the segments, but I thought that that segment was particularly beautiful and I know like you keep on alluding to the circle, which I just want to mention really quick. I'm pretty confident in the Vedic system of astrology. Your first house ruler is Saturn and I'm pretty sure it's placed in gesture, not Chakra which is in Scorpio, and gesture one of the symbols for gesture is actually like a circle of protection.
Speaker 2:Well, how?
Speaker 1:about that, and so I love that you keep on talking about circles. That segment has a circle to it, because it started off talking about Linda and of course you went through the story with her, but then it ended with your father remarrying somebody else and finding love again and finding a sense of home with somebody again, and it was very cathartic.
Speaker 2:Are you picked up on that?
Speaker 1:And now I'm just training myself to find the circles. Well, because part of this assignment whenever you asked me to come on and interview you is that you wanted to hypothesize about how the series would end. So I'm like he's dropping clues. There's a circle, there's some sort of connection. If you're misleading me, daniel, the way you're looking at me right now, if you're misleading me.
Speaker 2:I'm not misleading anyone. This is not something where I'm gonna have some big twist at the end. I think true beauty comes in simplicity, and the best endings are the most simple endings.
Speaker 1:Is the ending going to be a more current reflection of your experience? I don't know, okay, could be.
Speaker 2:I mean, the whole story is not told in a linear time setting, so okay, see, actually it took me a while to pick that up really yeah sorry, my bad no, that's my it's kind of hard for me to differentiate since I wrote the thing. Yeah, because I have a different awareness of it than than other people do sorry, yeah, that was a jerk thing for me to say.
Speaker 1:No, so I know that we're kind of coming up on time.
Speaker 1:I wanted to ask you or I wanted to say actually I just kind of wanted to touch on this is that you mentioned a lot of you kind of allude to time was there all along?
Speaker 1:You know, the pizza was there all along. You kind of have this way of returning to this phrase, of saying that this thing was there all along. But then also something that I wanted to ask you about that I was really interested in is that you repeatedly say that what matters most is this lifetime, and yet we spend so much time focusing on the past, and I was kind of thinking about how, for you as a past life regressionist, you think about people's past lifetimes and how their previous life experiences have brought them to where they are now in this incarnation. But then, similarly, it's like you're focusing on past versions of yourself, like the past life of when you were a teenager in your early 20s, living with friends for the first time, the past life of you with Linda and that chapter of your life, but really the only thing that matters is where you are in the present moment, and so I was kind of like drawing that connection in my mind and I just want to hear if you have any comment on that.
Speaker 2:Yes, I'm a giant hypocrite. I'm fully well aware of it. I'm a walking contradiction. It's okay, I said it, you didn't.
Speaker 1:No, I mean, I don't see it that way, I don't see it as being like a contradiction. I think that what I was hoping for, what I was teeing up, was some sort of commentary on how it's like. The most important thing is where we are now and the life that we're in, but there's still value and merit in observing what made us who we are, because there is no present without the past, and so, anyway, I was hoping to have that conversation. My intention was not to call you a hypocrite. That was not my intention.
Speaker 2:I've had many regressions where I've seen people who I believe that I was, so I don't know for a fact. Pretty sure We'll line up with the astrology too. I've gotten a lot of detail on those lives. Some of them are cooler than others. Some of them I'd really like to live now, others I wouldn't, and I'm very uniquely situated to write a story about all those past lives, being someone who is a bit creative. I am Daniel the past life regressionist. So just to clarify, my last name is not the past life regressionist. So just to clarify, my last name is not the past life regressionist, if anyone was wondering it's not sorry okay
Speaker 2:but my focus was on this life and telling the story of this life, because that's all that matters ultimately. Yes, I will write stories about my past lives at some point, but you got to set the foundation with what really matters and that's this life. And maybe one day I will take this story one step further and apply all of those past lives to this story and say this is why I think this was playing out this way. You know, it's this life in 1279 AD. If we're going by that metric, or, as they refer to it in other systems, as CE for common era. Just want to distinguish that for everyone right now, you know we go by BCAD, before Christ, after death. There's also what's known as BCE and CE. Bce is before common era and CE is common era. So as we're recording this August 30th, 2024, it is 2024 CE or AB, but CE, you know, common era.
Speaker 2:So the next natural step would be the application of this is why I have such an attachment to home. Could it be the time that I've lost my? Oh wait, not time I've lost my home in a horrific fashion, or all of those times, or I could focus on what truly matters, which is now. Everyone has access to that. Everyone who's listening can focus on their lives now and see that it's been there all along. Whatever that thing may be, it has been there all along. And when you find, you're like, oh okay, so that's why it's what truly matters.
Speaker 2:Yes, the past can help us decipher our present and help us learn about ourselves in a way that we can grow and move forward. But if we're too stuck in the past, then we're not truly living. So, yes, I wear that as a badge of honor, being the hypocrite that I am being like. Oh yeah, everyone, come get a past life regression with me. You won't regret it, it'll be fun, it'll be good, you'll learn a lot about yourself and your past lives. But now is what's important. I'm not going to sit here and tell you about all the accomplishments of my past lives. That's what this series is for talking about how amazing I am in this life. This is a joke. Everyone.
Speaker 1:You can play the laugh machine.
Speaker 2:Should I put, yeah, put a laugh track in there. I probably will in those moments yeah, Did I put. Oh, I put that in the second episode, didn't. I probably will in those moments yeah, Did I put. Oh, I put that in the second episode, didn't.
Speaker 1:I yeah, you did. I don't know if it was the second episode, but I distinctly remember.
Speaker 2:What was the line where I did? It's been a long time since I put that in there.
Speaker 1:Maybe it was in the second episode. I listened to all of them back to back so I can't.
Speaker 2:It didn't seem like something I would have put in the first one Want to maintain some consistent tone. What are you hoping that the audience gets from this series? Everything has meaning. I received a message from someone who I've had on the show as a guest before Name's Desiree and she works in education and she talked about walking past the seesaw and having an emotional reaction to the seesaw Mission accomplished. And I talked about the seesaw in part four Because I want everyone to look at the world differently and see that anything can be evoked from anything.
Speaker 2:You don't need to listen to a sad song in order to evoke emotion. You don't need to think about a horrible thing that happened to you. It could be as simple as looking at a seesaw and realizing you didn't appreciate being on that seesaw when you were on that seesaw. That's what I want everyone to take away from it is you never know what you're going to miss until it's gone. And that's why I talked about time freezing all around me in certain moments. Because what happens when you get stuck in that moment, but in a good way when you realize that this is something that may seem so mundane, but it could be that thing that was there all along, and then that emptiness you feel once it's gone, walking through the park that night. I didn't talk about this in the episode, but it was also an indictment of society. I can only imagine they got rid of the seesaw because it was a liability. Yes, I know they can be dangerous, you can fall off of them, but that's a part of our childhood that's gone.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:The joy of being on a seesaw crossed from someone else, and that's why I also talked about in that episode, about I don't remember who was on the other end of that seesaw. Had I been paying more attention that moment, maybe I would remember. Now I don't know if it would make a difference, but every moment is important in our lives, even the ones we may perceive to be bad or heavy or negative. You never know if you're really going to miss that moment, 10 years from now, 20 years from now, 30 years from now, 50 years from now. Totally that you wouldn't give anything to go back to that moment.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:So appreciate it while you have it.
Speaker 1:And know that you're going to be nostalgic for it eventually.
Speaker 2:Exactly.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean, it's so interesting to hear you say that I um had this really big experience recently, you know, of like meeting someone and falling in love and having this like really beautiful, romantic, and it's like our relationship is still incredibly romantic and beautiful and perfect in so many ways, and like I'm going to be nostalgic for this, like I'm going to look back on this and like long for it and like in the moment I caught myself and reminded myself to just be so present and like really enjoy it. You know, and it's nice because now, kind of, you know, as time has kind of elapsed, it's like totally I miss. You know, there are things that I miss and our relationship is sweet for a different reason and there are things to appreciate every day for different reasons, but it's just nice to have that foresight of like look like this is an unstoppable train, you know, like we cannot stop time, it's just going to keep moving and so it's so important every day to be so present with all these beautiful things. And you know, for the audience, it's like what do you find nostalgia in now and how can you become more awake to those things on a daily basis, like if it was a seesaw if it was play. It's like, well, how do you play now and can you be more present in those moments? Or do you long for a first love? It's like, well, are you falling in love now? Really, pay attention, you know. I think that it's a really good reflective tool just to bring more presence and appreciation to certain areas of our life.
Speaker 1:Now, I think it's so important and that was something for me when I was listening to it all is I was getting nostalgic and I was like, wow, oh my God, like my grandmother's house, and I was talking to my partner about this. It's like going to New Mexico to see my grandmother was extremely formative and I hadn't really thought about it. Like going to visit her in her home in New Mexico forever imprinted on me that I love the desert, I love turquoise. To this day, I love turquoise, I love the desert. It's my favorite place and that is because of that house in the desert with my grandmom, you know, and so it's really beautiful.
Speaker 1:I think that you've created a total work of art. I think that it's incredibly inspiring and I think that it would really pair well with, like some, some type of like reflective tool. Like for this unsolicited advice for the final episode you should like create a worksheet for people to like go through or something, because some of us it happens naturally, but other people may need some type of prompting. I don't know. This is your project but I just wanted to throw it out there.
Speaker 1:people may need some type of prompting. I don't know.
Speaker 2:This is your project, but I just wanted to throw it out there. I appreciate that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I loved it, I totally loved it, and I told you. I mean, you asked me to listen to the segments and it's like I would not listen to the podcast if I didn't like it. I have very limited time and I found so much value in it, and so I really appreciate it. I really appreciate you sharing it with everybody.
Speaker 2:Thank you, just thank you, for your time. You know you're, you're my go-to for this stuff and for being my sounding board, my better judgment. A lot of times you're like, yeah, I know.
Speaker 1:I know I love coming, I love, I love asking you questions and I know there's still more. Maybe we can end up doing another one, but do you have any final words of reflection for it? For people?
Speaker 2:Yeah, one other point I want to make. I want to give a shout out to listener Anne, friend Anne, also Anne A-N-N-E, who also sent me a message about part four where she talked about the music. Well, I brought up the music. She was telling me about something else. In all fairness, I brought up the music. She was telling me about something else. In all fairness, I brought up the music in that message. I just have to be transparent. I'm not going to be a hypocrite. At certain times I should be transparent about everything else. But I was talking with her a little bit about the music. I composed the music for the episode.
Speaker 1:You composed the music. I did, you did, I did, I did compose it. I was curious if that was you.
Speaker 2:So you wrote the music I did, you did, you did, I did, I did I was curious if that was you, so you wrote the music yeah, I wrote the music for it. Thank, you I don't put on my hats, so I'm working on the ego. It's not fully. No, I was curious.
Speaker 1:I meant to ask about that. Another question I had I wanted to ask about the music. Um, I didn't know that you started playing guitar into your 20s. I thought that you had started playing earlier than that. I was curious if finding music allowed you to express yourself in a way that you couldn't before finding music. And then I was also curious in knowing if the journal entries were from a real journal, Like, did you go back and report to journal entries or do you just remember these dates miraculously Because you were like on this day I was like surely he had that written down.
Speaker 2:I just remember those days. I just have a knack for remembering dates and times and places.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you said that. You said it comes easier to you than reading.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so no, none of those were journal entries. That was all Well. The first two started as journal entries in early 2023, because that was the intention for the project initially was I was just going to write journal entries for a month of how I was feeling, leading up to my mom selling the house, and then I became this whole other beast that I just it's yeah, it's gonna be about 5,000 words. It ends up being 50,000 in the end.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's wild.
Speaker 2:But the thing I wanted to talk about for the music after I brought it up with Anne, she talked about the feeling she got from it. In composing it I did something, but they don't do much in pop music anymore. At the very end of the chorus I shifted from a major chord to a minor chord, but on the same one basically.
Speaker 2:So I went from a d major to a d minor, which is not something that's utilized very often and it evokes an emotion and you're not quite sure why wow if you go listen to that track, I put like a little music box at the end of it, so it's, and I put the pitch up, so it sounds very playful and happy, but you get this evoke or evocation that's not correct grammar. So it evokes an emotion. You don't understand why, even though I layered it with something that should sound happy, and I just I want to point that out for everyone because I think everyone is creative in one way or another and everyone has a unique talent that no one else has. I'm not saying that that's anything earth shattering, that I did. But, just like you were saying about guitar, I didn't become a professional musician Initially.
Speaker 2:It was just something I did to express myself a little bit more. And here I am now, 17 years after first picking up the guitar and utilizing those skills that I learned as a musician in a podcast I'm doing as a past life regressionist in a series that's about the meaning of home and letting go, so nothing ever goes to waste. You can take skills from any area of your life and apply it to something else, even though it seems so unrelated, and using that intention to evoke an emotion and, if you're listening, not understand why, why that's happening Wow.
Speaker 2:So I just I bring that up for everyone because it's like if you put a little bit of thought into something, you never know the impact that it's going to have in a way that will set someone on a different trajectory. Because even with Desiree bringing that up with the seesaw, it may have been I'm not saying this was it, but it may have been because I put that minor chord in there before I mentioned the seesaw to already evoke an emotion and not have you understand why, but kind of put you in that place. So when you do something with intention, you never know what will happen. And that was look. Yes, I use hypnosis, but I'm not a hypnotherapist. I don't know how, I don't know NLP or any of those techniques to trick people. It's just evoking in a feeling, or evoking a feeling through music and doing it with the intention of evoking an emotion for someone else's personal growth.
Speaker 1:Amazing.
Speaker 2:So I have a question for you.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:How do you think it's?
Speaker 1:going to end. Honestly, I have no idea. There's a part of me I feel like either it's going to be something where it's more recent, maybe it's focused on like an external factor now that you find home in and kind of drawing parallels between what you find home in now versus what you found home in historically, or you're just going to take it way back and it's going to start from the beginning and there may be like some story that you tell from, like your youth, youth, and then draw a connection to where you are now at the end. But there's going to be some sort of cyclical element to it.
Speaker 2:Can I show you something really quick?
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 2:All right, so I wasn't planning on doing this, but it just seems like a good idea. I'm going to show you the last two sentences of it. Are you ready? Don't spoil it for everyone else, though.
Speaker 1:Okay, amazing, do I look at it in the chat?
Speaker 2:No, I'm bringing it up on screen, you see it.
Speaker 1:Wow, I feel Okay, I'm not going to say anything, I just want to gloat. I'm going to keep myself from gloating.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Amazing. Well, daniel, it's been such a pleasure interviewing you today. I'm so excited for the final segment. I feel flattered that you gave me insight into the final few sentences, but I still want to listen to the entire segment and just to kind of recap.
Speaker 1:I think that for people who know you and for people who don't, it's just like this excellent journey through time and I think it really provokes, at least for me, my own contemplation on big events in my life and the transformations through, like what I've perceived at home. And I think it's I think for everyone it's going to be such a delicate heart centered thing, and I think for me it certainly is. I mean, it's like it requires so much fortitude, fortitude and strength to go there and so I'm sure through your process it's just been like so, as we started off with, I mean, it's been such like cathartic, emotional thing for you. And, that being said, thank you so much for choosing to share it with us and putting it all out there, because I know that it's vulnerable and I know it's a lot of personal information, and thank you for letting me host this and ask you a bunch of questions. I really appreciate it.
