What are some crazy client examples or remarkable instances that you can speak to? Do you ever tell people to make choices?
"Yes. Sometimes I see two distinct paths, and I'm like 'Listen, you have two options here: Which way do you want to go?' Let me put it this way: If we've put so much energy into our identity, we're not going to suddenly change. The biggest thing I bring to people is that I look at their energy, their fears, their beliefs, or the way they interact with the world, and can help them change to get what they want. I can see the true core of someone, and I tell them to take out what's not working, and they get it! They can see what doesn't belong, and they get it. That's what's really wonderful. This happens a lot with questions of love. I read women of all ages, from women in their '20s who have plenty of new people to meet, to women in their '40s, whose pool has dwindled. You get to a certain point where you have to do something more proactive for love, whether that's going to different matchmakers, or dating services, joining upscale gyms, tech meetups…I tell people this, and they don't want to know. That's something I'm good at: giving people suggestions and reframing issues or limitations. It's very freeing to people."
It's interesting to see when people accept specific advice, you know –– don't talk to that woman, or don't go on the plane –– and they'll not get on the plane, and stay alive…
"Usually that happens to people who have their own intuitions already, but that's not really what we do. I really do warn people. For instance: there was a woman who really wanted to get married, and I told her that she was going to have some misses in the near future, but that she'd meet someone in a year. You like him, and you have to be really aware of the signals you're getting from him. You might be dating him for nine months, and he might be all alone wanting to get married and have children, but when it comes to the breaking point, I think you'll feel that you wasted nine months of your life, if you're not careful. I'll say that sort of thing to people; to watch out for signals."
How does that work? If the person was to do nothing proactively? Would she still meet that guy? I believe in this stuff wholeheartedly, but how much of this stuff dictates the reality?
"Some people will meet someone anyway. So, sometimes there's no suggestion needed because it's all right there. They're already plugged in! It's when people are stuck, and not plugged in. And that's what I like about being a psychic, and not a psychologist, because they have a set of ethics, or code, and they don't want to affect people. When I have an opinion, or when someone is abusing my client, I'm going to look in their eyes, and try to make an impression, and try to affect them. I think if I can affect someone in a positive way, saying 'This is how you're interacting with the world, and it has to change!', that's a good thing. Especially when it comes to love, people are very confused. With controlling people, with that set of behaviors that near on a personality disorder, I'm able to say so and affect change."
How has your ability helped or hurt your life, and those of your friends and family?
"I try to be very helpful to people. So, I was adopted, and when I told my mother about Ms. Mary, they were like 'Oh my God!', 'How did you know that?' They just had no frame of reference for that sort of thing. I just kept it hidden, and now I'm very passive with it. I have a very traditional family, and I love them very much, but I don't feel the need to share this with them, nor do they ever ask. I have a group of friends, who will on occasion, ask me something, or I'll share it with my fellow psychics, but I don't try to insert myself in places that I don't belong."
