Venus (01:32)

Thank you, Bernie. I'm wonderful.

 

Bernie (01:35)

What's your favorite quote or saying?

 

Venus (01:36)

be yourself. There's n I don't even know how to say it exactly, but like be yourself, everybody else is taken. Yeah.

 

Bernie (01:42)

Perfect. Yeah, that that's true. 'Cause yeah he doppelganger is not the favorite topic line, right?

 

You went from running a construction company and that that involves tradespeople, clients, engineers, a whole whole bunch of things to clairvoyant medium. So what happened at age thirty that made the light bulb come on for that particular space?

 

Venus (02:04)

I don't really know what made it come on. I guess I'm get my guess is that I I was taking I decided to do some exploration into the healing modalities and I was a mis becoming a massage therapist and I took Reiki class and it was my Reiki master class after that that I was practicing a session on my then fiance and a spirit walked in the room.

 

And I was like, this is seems weird. So yeah, it's it kind of just happened and I wasn't really happy about it at first. I said some not so, you know, good words and was like, I don't really want this gift, take it back. I looked for the return receipt, but didn't find it anywhere. Like I was just like So

 

Bernie (02:49)

So did did you find that in your previous role in construction that also helps shape how you move forward now? Like you know, you you now you have two gifts. You've run construction and now you have you have a clairvoyant component to yourself. Did the one help structure the second one and then move you forward?

 

Venus (03:10)

Well, I think I realized that I always had a knack for spaces, right? Because construction is about building spaces. I also had I helped with some design on spaces. you know, later I learned even some feng shui and so, you know, some of like how to like organize things in your space. so yeah, I think I

 

I used to call myself a spatial mathematician. Like I could look at a space and I could see exactly what would fit there without having to like measure it or pull out the ruler or the, you know, measuring tape. So and so obviously I I had some sort of talent. I just didn't realize when I became clairvoyant medium that then I could see the spirit realm and I could see the energies that were distortions or maybe spirits that were stuck or, you know,

 

It was it was a kind of a different realm, but I do see how they they kind of work together a little bit.

 

Bernie (04:04)

Energetic clearing. so it's one thing to, you know, vent a house, you know, open the windows. You know, if you have a European anybody with a European background, the in the middle of winter, the the German grandmothers like to open the windows and it's forty below outside. They'll do that for like a thirty minute jaunt, you know, and the house smells fresh. But what you're doing is a bit different than that, isn't it?

 

Venus (04:26)

Yeah, totally. so like I said, I can now I can see the spirit realm and so I just I could see if there's a dark energy somewhere or something stuck. I mean, we all even if you couldn't see energy, you feel energy. Like I think everybody's walked into a room and went, I don't know what's going on in this room, but like it does not feel good. And so maybe somebody was just arguing or, you know, there was just bad blood in the room, you know, just like

 

We all have those feelings anyway, and I just I can see them with my spiritual eyes. So and that's you know, when I can see something I'm like, that doesn't look like that belongs there. And so I can clear it.

 

Bernie (05:04)

Haunted, paralyzed, and cursed. There are three patterns that you've defined. What's what's behind those? Haunted sounds pretty obvious. Cursed sounds pretty obvious. Paralyzed, huh? So I'll let you provide some definition around those descriptions.

 

Venus (05:19)

Sure, absolutely. Yeah, so haunted. I have a quiz, the homeclaclearingquiz dot com, and it's a quiz you could take to find out what energies are stuck in your home. it also works for businesses, we found out. But if you take the quiz, these are the top three outcomes. So we actually have five, but there's these are the top three that we see the most. And haunted, yep, is the unwanted guest. It's

 

you know, the the the spirit that's stuck there. I cleared a home once where the guy built, you know, it was his dream home. He built it from the ground up and then he got sick and he died in it, right? So of course he was attached to it. So he was still there. So that's the unwanted guest. And cursed is the emotional sponge. So it's yeah, it can be, you know, people curse

 

You might be cursed just by your parents that say, you know, you'll never amount to anything or, you know, somebody just says something, you know, like because they're jealous of your success and, you know, they don't know that they're cursing you, but that that is considered a curse. and I just call it the emotional sponge because it's like it's, you know, basically absorbing everyone's emotions and feelings about something, right? Could be the space, could be about you, right?

 

And then paralyzed is the frozen frequency. And this is actually my number one that I get the most out of anybody taking the quiz is this one. And it's it's that me that energy is not moving. Like I have somebody right now who's had a house, you know, for 10 years, and they've always wanted to, you know, update this specific room. And every time they go to update this room,

 

Something happens in their life and they have to actually use all that money that they saved to update the room for this thing in their life. And it's happened multiple times. That's a frozen frequency. That's like something they're trying to move forward with it and they can't move forward because something is stopping them. So yeah.

 

Bernie (07:16)

So how do you end up because obviously it's not everywhere all the time, or that might be a misconception on my end. Is it everywhere? And you know, like what what makes tag today? You're it. I get the curse part because you're you got told, you know, yeah, you know, you you're not gonna mount anything, but the paralyzed or the haunted, how do you end up finding a how do you become the lucky winner of that option?

 

Venus (07:38)

Well, I don't I yeah, again, a spirit like the spirits and the ghosts that I deal with, they don't actually realize they don't have a body anymore. So they're like floating around thinking that life is as normal and so I have to let them know like, hey, you don't have a body anymore, you can move on. They're they're like, okay. So it's it just depends on, you know, the house. definitely older houses have more of a

 

propensity to have that because they've there's been more people that have lived there, right? And that they claimed that it was their home. And then, you know, you might even have multiple ghosts that died, you know, attached to a home and they live in the same home and interacting with each other, like, no, this is my home, no, this is my home. Like, you know, so, so it I don't it's not kind of a luck of a draw. It's just kind of like whatever the energy is that's, you know, stuck in that home.

 

that's why I work with real estate agents predominantly is because they're trying to sell a home and they're like, This home won't sell, doesn't matter what I do, they're probably dealing with either unwanted guest or the frozen frequency, something's frozen, frozen in time. that can also happen. Frozen, like it's just not moving. You know, that's a frozen and it's just the space. Sometimes homes

 

Believe it or not, because homes are energy, homes actually are attached to the previous owners and they won't let themselves go to a new owner until they figure out why the old owner isn't still there. So there's actually like this conversation that you have with the space as well. So

 

Bernie (09:11)

Interesting. I as you're describing this, I'm thinking of castles in Europe. And then I'm thinking even further if you're like in India, where you know, time is more a little immorial or the Far East, or maybe even the Middle East, right? Because there's a lot of a lot of history out there, or even in Africa. How far back does this it I I'm I'm again speaking hypothetical, how far back can a space go? And it does it have to be a space or it can it be the land itself too?

 

Venus (09:36)

Hmm, great question. Yes. Yes. it's both. It is the land and I have cleared, I've even cleared battles that were still being fought, but they didn't realize that the war was over and that they could move on. so land is a big one. And it goes back as as old as time. You know, it's like whatever is stuck there is stuck there. I will say that I haven't dealt with not yet.

 

doesn't say that it won't, but like I haven't dealt with I don't deal with a lot of animals anyway, because animals don't seem to s get stuck. You know, there's not that energy. But I haven't run into yet like caveman yet, but I have run into Native Americans for sure, Aborigine like definitely some farther back. dot a lot of Indian

 

The Utes, I've dealt with the Utes. I actually live in Utah, so that and so I notice it it just tends to be like the the energy of spirits that are either here to contribute to the land or here stuck on the land. And there are the Utes, the ones that I had run into were actually keepers of the land. So they weren't they didn't want to be cleared, they didn't need to go anywhere. They just were yeah.

 

Bernie (10:45)

So why does someone dial you up then? I I obviously they're alive because you know the the the the ethereal are not calling up going, hey, I want to leave, you know, give me a shout.

 

Venus (10:54)

So

 

Bernie (10:55)

What what triggers it? Is it is it the person that just like you said, a realtor that's the house ain't moving? Or the person that goes, Man, I every time I start a project I I I get segued, which you know sounds kind of like huh, unfortunate.

 

Is this something you you only call when you're just you're you're you know almost banging your head on the on the wall type thing, is ain't moving? Or do you do this as a pre precursor or like what what what drives the business towards you?

 

Venus (11:22)

that's great. Yeah, both. so I definitely my work is now based on a lot of referrals. Like people have worked with me, they they're like, you know, they real estate agents love to talk to each other and they're like, you have a home that won't sell? Hey, I know somebody. So so that's been really helpful because you know, my I've helped real estate agents sell homes that couldn't be sold and so now they're telling, you know, their friends. And so yeah, it's more based on a need.

 

I'll even do like a free presentation for brokerages and I'll when I do that I'll give them like a list of ten to fifteen ways that they could clear the home on their own and and so they can try those things and then I'm number fifteen. You know, it's like, you know, if those fourteen things don't work, then give me a call, you know. so it but I like to encourage people to try some things, you know, everybody has different

 

points of view and ideas about how to clear spaces. A lot of real estate I wouldn't say a lot, but there's a few real estate agents that believe if you bury a certain statue upside down in the ground, it'll clear, you know, it'll help the ha house sell. It works for some, it doesn't work for others. So again, I'm I'm I consider myself like I'm the last call, right? You're you've you've tried everything else, you've tried staging, you've tried lowering the price.

 

You know, and nothing is is changing. So then they're like, Okay, I need to pull in an expert or somebody else who has a different point of view that can help me out. And and then from there, it's it's been a natural evolution. I created the vibrational flow system for clearing homes and land. And then people with homes, they're like, Well, I'm not trying to sell my home. I had one a few months ago that was in Seattle that was asking

 

Like said, I don't know what it is, but my home feels really busy. And then it turned out that that home had a land was built on a land portal and a portal. If you guys know anything about portals or just where spirits can transition from one place to another. and so of course his house was like a bus stop. It was like literally filled with spirits waiting to go through the portal. So I had to move the portal and then let everybody go to the other bus stop. So yeah.

 

It's that was and he it was just his own home and he's like, I just don't feel at ease in my own home. So that's definitely a common question as well. Yeah.

 

Bernie (13:44)

The word portal brings up a whole new conversation direction here. And we're gonna get into the business side of it shortly, but so portal is a is an example of ta-da, you the lucky winner of n prize number two. so are are there other are there other things that

 

Bring that forth, bring that situation where yeah, basically the homeowner or the person in that space is is not there's something they're feeling off. Something's feeling off for them. Is there portal being another example? Someone passed away in the space. you've mentioned you know, the domicile going, where where'd everybody go? You know,

 

Venus (14:21)

Yeah.

 

Bernie (14:21)

I enjoyed the you know, whatever whatever the circumstance was. What other things can contribute to the presence of

 

Yep. There you go. You got an issue. And do you actually have an issue?

 

Venus (14:31)

Yeah. Well, you know, I I like to think of it this way. Are you comfortable? Do you like living in your own home? Do you feel good in your own home? If you feel good in your own home, then there's nothing to address, right? If you don't feel good in your own home, then there might be something to address. I work with real estate agents because I work with the homes they can't sell. They're like, I cannot sell this home to save my life. You know, so I'm so

 

Yeah, I'm like, okay, I can help you with that. it's just like paying attention to how you feel. And it that's this that's true for any space, you know. If you and you probably follow this naturally anyway, like you might go into a mall and go into a store and just be like, I I don't want to be in this store and you turn around and you leave, right? And the store right next door is not a problem, right? Because there's some sort of energy in that store that makes you not want to be there.

 

You know. So it's just paying attention to how you feel.

 

Bernie (15:26)

Okay. so in the business space, how does this apply to businesses in the in in the same light then? How does you know is it is it the premises? Is it the nature of the business? Because if you're a coach and you do things online, it's different than someone that sells candy bars in a qu you know, in a convenience store or versus someone who sells cars at a dealership like

 

Venus (15:48)

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, totally. So brick and mortar buildings obviously are spaces, right? So they do have their own stuff basically also based on where they're built. Like there's a home that was having a lot of trouble and it was built on a Native American burial ground. So I was like, Okay, we have to deal with the fact that the house was built here and they didn't ask permission, right? So it's the same with buildings and

 

you know, brick and mortar build businesses. What's cool is I've found that it doesn't matter if the business is online or not. There's still always some maybe some curse or maybe they're feeling stuck somewhere or frozen. Then, you know, that's when I come in and I clear the energy to help the business move forward again.

 

Bernie (16:34)

Ever have a time where something just didn't want to leave and stuck a you know, I if you watch Hollywood enough times, right, you're going, my gosh, you know, anything from a small kid toy to the clown in the sewer to you know, somebody in the eighteen hundreds has not moved on and they're they're terrorizing a family in this century.

 

Right. And and I I know Hollywood has hype in there. So have you ever had a circumstance where something didn't move on? Maybe the person that's the owner or resident or occupier of that space, best move is to slide out and someone else slide in.

 

Venus (17:10)

Right. Yeah. So yes and no. So I will tell you this is something I even I teach all my clients and when I do classes I'm really adamant about this. There's no one and nothing more powerful than you. Meaning, if you're aware of a spirit in the space and you bought the home and you're living in the home and you're like, and I'm aware there's a spirit here that doesn't want to seem to move on, you get to be the dominant energy and move that spirit on. Like

 

That spirit may not choose to go get a new body or, you know, move on to the light or whatever. But it cannot be in your space if you put your foot down and say, This is my home, right? So you get to be the dominant energy. So yes, I I've even had that. I have a spirit I bought an old antique bed and I had a spirit attached to the bed. And the spirit didn't it was like this is my bed. I'm like

 

Actually it's not anymore because it's not your bed. and so the spirit didn't move on, but he had to move out of my house. So yeah.

 

Bernie (18:10)

It's interesting that as we leave our mortal coils, you know, what is what we have, whether you have gold or not, right? It doesn't it doesn't move with you. Right. So why would it why would it want to hang in with an with a particular asset? you know, like you know, house is an example. And is is there kind of a variation on the themes? Because one is, you know, that's my stuff. Right. I don't want to leave it. Another one is

 

when you mention the say burial ground, it's more a matter of respect. Yeah, you see, hi guys, you just dropped you just dropped your structure on top of my grave. What are you doing? Right. And even if you did unwit unwittingly, right? how how do you sort through that? And like I mean, I I I get the the tangibles. It it isn't following you, the bed as an example.

 

Put the house on top of a top of a burial ground, a graveyard, you know, normally you wouldn't see that happening in other places either, you know.

 

Venus (19:01)

Yeah, so yeah, it really is like spirits are attached to things too sometimes. Not like again, this is not all spirits. They're just the ones that are kind of floating around but don't realize that they've don't have a body anymore. So they're still attached to their stuff because they don't realize they don't have a body anymore. So it's kinda like you're you're liv this is your home, you die, but you don't realize you die, and then somebody moves in and you're like, Wait, you're a squatter in my home.

 

And so we just again we have to just give them information and it's usually just like letting them know, like, hey and I do it really compassionately and kindly, like, I'm sorry to say, you know, you don't have a body anymore, you passed away. And most of the time they'll just leave instantly. They're like, and then it's like the light bulb goes on and they're gone. and sometimes they're just, you know, stubborn. They're like, you know, the spirits aren't perfect. You know, like they're not

 

Just because they don't have a body anymore, they aren't instantly enlightened. And that's something that I think we're all kind of trained to believe. And they're not. They're they're you know, some of are stubborn too.

 

Bernie (20:07)

What wouldn't and again I'm tipping into something you've just mentioned as as you're describing it. They they don't know you know

 

couple of things come to mind. if I sit here and I I walk over to the light switch and I go push my finger in the light switch, it moves. You know, open the door, et cetera. Right. is that the same context for them and they just, you know, they're still trying to turn on a light switch. They think they turned it on and they're ca the cause and effect. Or is it is that part kind of muted on them like you're in a dream state. you know you having a thought and then you know

 

The reality of the dream state is not as solid.

 

Venus (20:42)

Yeah, I think it's more the latter. that they just are just like it y and I I will say this, like the Sixth Sense movie was you know, kinda spot on, except for the fact that I don't see them maimed. Like I don't see them the way they died or all that. That's not necessary. But like how Bruce Willis in that movie, if you guys watch that movie, like he thinks he's alive the whole time talking to this kid until the very end he realizes he's dead, right? So it's like that. It's like

 

They they just think, this is you know, and and if they can find somebody that they can actually talk to, like a medium, you know, somebody who that they're like, you know, I it's so weird. I'm so glad you can hear me because I'm talking trying to talk to my family and friends and like they aren't answering me back and I don't I don't know why they're ignoring me. Like like the like they really don't understand, you know. So yeah.

 

Bernie (21:34)

Eve, when you do a clearing, what does that process look like? You know, what are some of the things that you instruct people on doing, you know, that are op potential options? And does one methodology work for all people, like the inverted statue being buried in the ground, you know, facing maybe north, east, west, or south, you know, sing a little ditty, you know, sprinkle a little bit of salt, iron what you know, I've I've I'm wandering all over the map here. how do you do it and like and how does that process look?

 

Venus (22:02)

Cool. so I created my own vibrational flow system. I didn't realize I had a system at first. I just kind of started clearing stuff. And then I had somebody ask me, Do you have a system for how you do it? And it's a seven step system and I'm able to use that same system for every space that I'm in. for net like I used to do everything in person and now I can do remote most of the time. I have to tell some people that sometimes I do still have to come.

 

for the more difficult properties or something that's requiring me to be there physically, which is it's it's not all the time, but it is sometimes. And I just follow the seven step system. And that seven step system is what works for homes, land, businesses, you know, structures, and it's even worked on people.

 

Bernie (22:47)

I'm paying.

 

Venus (22:47)

Yeah, yep.

 

Bernie (22:48)

Okay. He op you opened that door. Now I'm gonna I'm gonna reach into that pocket and go, What what do you mean by people?

 

Venus (22:54)

So your body is your was your first home anyway?

 

Bernie (22:58)

Yeah, yeah.

 

Venus (22:58)

So so it's a space, right? So there's clear there's energy that gets stuck in your body in your space. I use the same system to clear it.

 

Bernie (23:06)

Okay. No cool cool. Sorry, I went on.

 

Venus (23:09)

Ha ha ha.

 

Bernie (23:10)

You you also you also mentioned difficult locations and what would make something difficult? And which leads me to the next question. Is there something then it it's one thing to be you know stuck or I'm feeling uneasy. Is there anything where there's a risk to life and limb or information?

 

Venus (23:28)

Well, yeah, I mean, like I said, not all not all spirits are benevolent, you know. So but it's it it's something it's like looking at for instance, down the street here we've had a guy trying to build an apartment building and it burned down twice. So he doesn't know about me, so you know, I haven't been able to work on that property yet. But there's definitely something going on there. And then yeah, I mean a fire i is dangerous.

 

to people and hope luckily these were they were burned down while they were under construction so nobody was harmed but there you know I wouldn't rent there until I got it cleared.

 

Bernie (24:05)

So y your nature of your business, some people might be skeptical about it, right? And I mean at the end of the day, if if they're not gonna knock on your door to ask for service, no harm, no foul. How do you cause you know you've gone from construction where everything's very tangible, you know, and and it's it has a certain has an element of blue collar where everything has a practical, like everything else. And

 

At this and now you've evolved into an another lane of traffic of activity that you're doing. So you have you have both both ends of the spectrum. But where I'm going with this question is from a business perspective, if someone launches something, so that you know like in this space, how did you bring about going, listen, this is the reality. How how do you convince people like even the realtors, right? like listen, it's not working.

 

Give it a try and if it works, you know, here's my fee. Is that how we do

 

Venus (24:54)

I'll act I do a free consultation for anybody. So we can just get on the phone and talk. Like talk about what's going on. I might not even be the right match, you know, for what's going on. So I but I really I like to talk to people. I like to find out what's going on. We can talk about it. I I have a fee up front because I do believe in what I charge and what I'm charging for. but I basically I still see myself I'm I'm probably your last

 

ditch effort or like you've tried everything else, nothing else is working, and you're like, Okay, I'll try anything. And a lot of us get to that point where we're just like, I don't care what it is, you do you. If you can change the energy with this, I'll take it. So, but also, you know, my testimonials, they help a lot. You know, people are like, yeah, you actually have helped people you know. So

 

Bernie (25:45)

So for the solepreneur that's feeling stuck, you know, whether they're working from home or they've just opened up a business, launching a factory, what are the things you first look at that you know, they they're they know that something's off and now they've come to you. What's the first thing you look for in in within their space?

 

Venus (26:03)

So businesses seem to have about about six layers. I'll I'll say, you know, of course, give or take. because you most businesses have a staff element, you know, the money, the clients, the customers, you know, however that so there's like six elements that I found that I like to look at. And I can in usually in the free consultation, I can look at all six of those and say, Okay, I'm really seeing the the jam up is in this.

 

section right here. I'm working currently with a brokerage who's all about their co op brokerage. So they're all about getting more brokers in. And they haven't had any new sign ups in in almost a year. So they're like, how do we get people in? So so there's some sort of energetic block that I've been working with to to keep to have the energy flow in so that the new brokers can come in. And

 

Yeah, that's just just a diagnostic. I use my clairvoyance and my intuition and my to see where the blocks are. So

 

Bernie (27:04)

Perfect. Is there something that people should do? Like for example, when I when I talk to my chiropractor, she says, Bernie, you know, do these five stretches a day. And that way your part of the body stays a little more limber and that way, you know, you see me less often. Right. Is there some kind of sagely advice? I couldn't resist. But is there kind of some sagely advice you can offer people that says, you know?

 

Do these things and it it'll it'll it'll keep the waters calm.

 

Venus (27:31)

Yeah. well, like I said, I tell people to try a few things. definitely try the things that you think that maybe worked for a friend and you haven't tried yet, like burying the statue upside down, try it. Like you've nothing you have nothing to lose to try it, you know. I I actually have some people, I'm not one of them, but I have some people that believe very strongly in sage. So that you brought up sage, you know, like smudging your area, clearing your area.

 

And I will also say it really is powered by intention. So if you're like something's not working here and I would like to clear it out, ask. Ask the universe to help you. Can you help me clear this out? Can you move this energy? You know, ask and you shall receive is actually a real thing. but you gotta ask for it, not just wish for it, right?

 

Bernie (28:18)

So do you do preventative also? Like in other words, realtors says, Listen, I've just signed up four or five properties for for sale and you know, and some of them were you know, homeowners passed away, maybe passed away inside the house. Or something happened in the residence and it was not, you know, it involved law enforcement and you know, just a a total adverse event, you know, or dark.

 

Is that something they just they call you up and you kind of go in and help to resolve that ahead of time? Or do you actually have to go through once they know that you know they've t they've tasted they've tasted the water and now they you know before I have to get thirsty, I'm gonna reach out and do a kind of a preventative touch on the space.

 

Venus (28:58)

Yeah, yeah, it can be done by one off, but I also do monthly retainers and I'm on monthly retainers with real estate agents and brokerages that just have me clear all their new spaces that come in. So it's just easy for them. They're like, Okay, we know it's already been done, you know. Yep.

 

Bernie (29:14)

So what areas do you service? Like do you just service in Utah? Do you do continental US, North America, or are you all over the globe?

 

Venus (29:23)

I am willing to be all over the globe. At the moment I've only been in North America and Europe. But yes, I'm I'm willing to help whoever needs help all over. So

 

Bernie (29:33)

What's been your funkiest exercise on so with a circumstance that you're willing to share, that you can share?

 

Venus (29:40)

I can't share. I can, as long as all the w all the names are kept quiet. The funkiest space I would I would probably say was the Native American burial ground. that was yeah, it just wasn't it wasn't and that house was built a while ago. So it was built a while ago on you know, so it wasn't recent or anything like that, but so it just had a lot of and every time she fixed something, something broke.

 

You know, and it was just like, yeah. So it was just yeah. It was not a fun fun space to be in, but

 

Bernie (30:11)

I can understand that. Are are there other people that do the same thing that you do? Is is this like are you in an extremely unicorn moment or is this are there several unicorns out there that just really well dispersed?

 

Venus (30:23)

I've I've heard that there are some other people that do space clearing and home clearing. I haven't met very many and I don't hear about them often. and you know, obviously the vibrational flow system that I created is mine. but I am hoping to teach that someday to others so that they can do it too.

 

Bernie (30:41)

Nice. Very nice.

 

Cultures. you know, when I I think of North American culture, again, depending where you where a person comes from, they're kind of going, yeah, no. You know, a and be it other cultures and and I might be overinterpreting it, are more like, Yes, this this is, you know, this is this is the harmony underneath the do you find that sometimes you have more buy in from a person that has a

 

non homogenous North American cultural background. they go, Yep, you're right. And come on over and you know, get rid of get rid of my you know, my long lost relative that should have been long lost.

 

Venus (31:17)

Yeah, totally. well, I think what I'm noticing though is just Europe has more 'cause more history has more you know, more beings, you know, wandering around that have been there for a while. So I and I think that European cultures are a little bit more open to that concept of like, yeah, I know all my relatives are here with me. Like they actually think that's a good thing. And it's like, okay, you know. so

 

So yeah, I think some cultures there are, but I find, you know, open minded people everywhere. And again, y if you get to a point where it's like you've tried everything, you'd try anything. You know?

 

Bernie (31:55)

If someone wanted to learn the the art of clearing space, what should they do? Should they just reach out to you or is there a place where you know, because how did you become aware and what know what to do next in knowing that it's the next right step? Was it intuited or was it someone did you mentor with somebody to work with it? to

 

to bring it into a focus for you to say, listen, this is what I do. But you know, it's it's not like you know one day the light bulb comes on, other than you're doing a a Reiki and and you go, who are you and what are you doing here? Right? What that all about? You know, which is your start point, right? Yeah I did to go from that to you know, I'm Feng Shui, pardon the pun again, I'm Feng Shui with this and let's go.

 

Venus (32:37)

Yeah. Yeah. The well the my I like I said, I've I've studied twenty different modalities. So I have studied under a lot of different mentors and studied a lot of different things. and then then I just I think I just intuitively like I said, I was clearing spaces naturally and then somebody asked me, Do you have a system? And I was like, I don't think so, but I'll sit down. And then I was like, I do. I had actually intuitively come up with a system.

 

And n now this system is, you know, a step by step step system that anybody could learn. So yep.

 

Bernie (33:10)

I also understand you have a podcast. what's it called and where do we find it?

 

Venus (33:14)

Awesome. Yeah,

 

it's awakening adventures dot transistor dot Fm and because of my spontaneous awakening when I turned thirty and suddenly I could see the spirit realm, I felt at the time I felt very alone and I felt like I was gone crazy and you know, a little and I know a lot of people are going through that and that I believe that we are actually waking up globally and so a lot of people are having

 

spontaneous awakenings more and more now. And so I'm interviewing special people who've had a spiritual awakening or a near-death experience and having them share their experience about their awakening. And I'm asking them, what are they now doing with those gifts? So I use my gifts to help real estate agents clear homes and everybody chooses to do something a little bit different with their gifts as they become aware of them.

 

Bernie (34:05)

You also have a landing site for the home clearing quiz. What's that all about?

 

Venus (34:10)

So the homeclearingquiz.com is a place where you can take a free quiz about your home or you can even take it as your business. So what I say for business owners is it like just instead of home, think of business for each question. And then you'll get the energy that's interfering with your business or your home.
