A Psychic's Story

Nichole Bigley is joined by Em Schulz and Christine Schiefer from And That’s Why We Drink to explore real experiences of intuition, psychic hits, and premonitions — the moments you see, feel, and sometimes don’t fully understand until later.

This episode is part of a May series, where more listener stories are intentionally featured to highlight your experiences and the ways intuition and connection show up in real, everyday life. It also marks a special collaboration to celebrate A Psychic’s Story joining the ParaPods Network, with this episode as a swap with And That’s Why We Drink.

Together, Nichole, Em, and Christine dive into the moments that can feel subtle, unexplainable, or even overwhelming — from split-second knowing to vivid premonitions that later unfold in real time.

The conversation opens a deeper layer — how we process these experiences, especially when they happen at a young age, and what it means to trust — or question — what we sense.

Throughout the episode, they share their own intuitive experiences and reflect on listener stories — from gut-knowing and telepathic moments to the ways intuition can show up through dreams, journaling, and everyday life.

In this episode, they explore:

A powerful childhood premonition involving an air show that later unfolded in real time.

What “split-second knowing” can feel like — and why it often arrives without warning.

The connection between intuition, pattern recognition, and lived experiences.

How clairvoyance can develop through journaling, imagination, and reflection.

The emotional weight of intuitive experiences — especially when they’re misunderstood or dismissed.

Why many intuitive moments are subtle confirmations, not always dramatic events.

Nichole Bigley welcomes Dr. Bonnie Buckner — founder and CEO of the International Institute for Dreaming and Imagery® — on A Psychic’s Story to explore how dreams, intuition, and inner imagery connect to deeper insight and guidance.

Bonnie shares how dreaming is not random, but a language of experience — reflecting both what is happening within and the parts of us that may not yet be fully recognized. Through her work, she introduces the concept of the Secret Mind, a space of inner knowing that becomes more accessible through dreams and imagery.

She also shares how early experiences shaped her path, including powerful dreams in childhood, and how a lifelong connection to dreaming evolved into the work she does today.

Together, Nichole and Bonnie explore how dreams can offer clarity, reveal potential, and support both personal and professional decision-making — as well as how people can begin to strengthen their connection to dreaming (while awake and asleep) over time.

This episode is a reminder that the answers you’re seeking may already exist within you — and that your dreams may be one of the ways they come through. Listen to it to hear:

What dreams actually are and why they occur.

How dreaming connects to intuition and psychic ability.

The meaning of the Secret Mind and how it influences awareness.

How dreams reflect both challenges and untapped potential.

Ways to begin remembering and working with dreams more intentionally.

Nichole Bigley chats with intuitive medium and energy healer Katie Haegele to explore how intuition, energy, and healing intersect — and how reconnecting with yourself often begins through life’s most unexpected moments.

Katie shares how a life-altering injury became the catalyst for that reconnection — leading her through years of physical pain, emotional transformation, and ultimately back to her intuitive gifts. 

Together, they explore what it truly means to be psychic, how intuition naturally exists within all of us, and why grounding into the body is essential for spiritual expansion.

Katie introduces her “root to rise” approach — a grounded yet expansive way of working with energy that allows people to stay connected to their physical bodies while opening to deeper levels of awareness.

They also explore how sound, frequency, and angelic connection are being used in modern healing, and what many are experiencing collectively right now — including grief, awakening, and the rapid activation of intuitive abilities.

This conversation is a reminder that healing is not something outside of you — it is often how you reconnect with who you’ve always been.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

How a life-altering injury became the catalyst for a spiritual awakening. 

Why “pain is a portal” and how it reconnects you to your path. 

What it truly means to be psychic — and why intuition exists in everyone. 

How Reiki works and what people experience during a session. 

The “root to rise” approach to staying grounded while expanding spiritually. 

What many are navigating right now — grief, awakening, and intuitive activation.

Christine Hernandez returns to A Psychic’s Story to go deeper into Mayan astrology — an ancient system rooted in cosmology, sacred time, and energetic alignment.

In this conversation, Nichole and Christine explore what it means to live in “real time” — not by the clock, but in harmony with the natural rhythms of energy that shape each day and each life path.

Christine shares how the Mayan calendar functions as a reflection of both the cosmos and the human experience, offering insight into your soul’s purpose, natural gifts, and life cycles. And she walks through Nichole’s personal Mayan chart, giving listeners a real-time example of how this system reveals deeper layers of identity, healing, and purpose.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

What Mayan astrology is — and why it’s more accurately described as cosmology. 

The concept of sacred time and how each day carries a unique energetic frequency.

How modern timekeeping may disconnect us from natural rhythms.

The structure of the Mayan calendar (260-day cycle, energies, and number patterns).

How your personal Mayan signature influences your path, purpose, and challenges. 

Key life cycle ages (26, 36, 42, 52) and what they represent energetically. 

A live breakdown of Nichole’s Mayan chart and what it reveals. 

Christine describes this system as a way to live in alignment with both the seen and unseen worlds — where life begins to flow with more synchronicity, clarity, and meaning.
