    In Conversation with Penelope Smith

    What if the animals have been participating in humanity's great awakening all along and have simply been waiting for us to catch up? In this extraordinary episode, Julie, Karen, and Meredith sit down with Penelope Smith, the founding pioneer of interspecies telepathic communication, for a conversation that is as expansive as it is grounding. Drawing on more than fifty years of work in the field, Penelope illuminates the concept of the Great Turning, the essential shift from a way of living that extracts and depletes, toward one that sustains and reconnects, and reveals how animal communication sits at the very heart of that transformation. Together, they explore why animals don't carry the human burden of forgetting who they are, how the Great Turning is already present in those who simply live with kindness and presence, and why the antidote to overwhelm isn't more information, but deeper reconnection. The conversation moves into grief; the grief we hold for our animal companions, and the collective grief that may be quietly driving so much of the world's unrest and Penelope offers a perspective that gently dissolves the illusion of separation: that love doesn't wait on the other side of a rainbow bridge; it's right here, right now. This is one of those episodes that stays with you long after it ends.

  2. Our Favorite Animal Movies

    Our Favorite Animal Movies

    Long before any of us had language for animal communication, we had movies. In this candid, unplanned conversation, Julie, Karen, and Meredith revisit the films and shows that first cracked them open to a deeper relationship with animals — the ones that made them cry, made them furious, and made them believe. From Bambi to Benji, King Kong to Kimba the White Lion, Snow White to His Dark Materials, the stories they loved as children were doing something: seeding empathy, shaping intuition, and asking questions that would take decades to answer. This episode is a love letter to the animal stories that woke us up — and an open invitation to share yours.

  3. Psychopomps

    Jun 22

    Psychopomps

    What does it mean for an animal to travel between worlds? In this episode, Julie, Karen, and Meredith explore the rich and ancient concept of the psychopomp — a guide of souls between the realms of the living and the dead — sparked by a single word encountered in their recent conversation with The Wisdom of the Hive authors Michelle Cassandra Johnson and Amy Bertain. Meredith takes the hosts on a journey through mythology and culture, from Anubis in ancient Egypt and the Aztec Xolo dog to Norse Valkyries and the bird messengers of countless traditions, revealing how deeply animals have been woven into humanity's understanding of transition and the afterlife. Karen shares a moving personal experience of a hairless spirit guide appearing in meditation, Julie reflects on what animals share during pet loss grief sessions about who accompanied them across, and all three explore encounters with crows, cardinals, moths, and more. Along the way, they ask a profound and tender question: do animals — and perhaps even we, as animal communicators — serve as guides between the realms in ways we're only just beginning to name?

  4. Tips to Open Your Intuition

    Tips to Open Your Intuition

    Have you ever had a gut feeling you couldn't quite explain — and it turned out to be exactly right? In this episode of The Animal Communication Podcast, Julie, Meredith, and Karen pull back the curtain on their own intuitive journeys, sharing the childhood moments, animal encounters, and life experiences that first cracked them open to trusting what they couldn't always see or explain. From Meredith feeling a mysterious vibration between her nose and a little dog's as a child, to Karen bursting into tears at a gorilla's gaze at the zoo, to Julie discovering her intuition quietly at work in her advertising career — each path is beautifully unique. Together, they explore the everyday practices that keep their intuitive channels open (think walking with your dog, yin yoga, Qigong, and yes, the shower), how to tell the difference between intuition, fear, and ego, and why gratitude for even the smallest signs — a bird that lingers a moment too long, a song on the radio at just the right time — is one of the most powerful things you can do to keep the channel flowing.

    The Two Crazy Cat Ladies

    Jae and Adrienne of Two Crazy Cat Ladies — the dynamic duo behind the Feline Essential supplement line — are back on the podcast, and they brought a lot of good stuff with them. In this conversation, Julie, Karen, and Meredith dive deep with these passionate feline advocates on why cats are so fundamentally misunderstood (hint: they are not small dogs), what it took to truly see their cats as teachers, and how the whole-home environment of a cat's human family directly impacts feline health. Jae and Adrienne share the story behind their newest product, Antarctic Krill Oil — two years in the making and thoughtfully packaged to preserve its potency — and the science of why omega-3 fatty acids are so critical for cats' kidney, heart, and brain health. They also give a sneak peek at their upcoming book, The Herbal Cat, a comprehensive guide to holistic cat care that's years of lived experience and research in the making. The conversation wraps in beautiful territory: the power of community to shift how we care for animals, staying inside our sphere of influence when headlines feel discouraging, and the profound gift of learning to truly listen to what our cats are asking of us — in their health, their needs, and even their passing.

    Mystical, Magical Creatures with Lisa Tully

    What happens when the veil between worlds grows thin — and you're brave enough to step through? In this enchanting return visit, we welcome back Lisa Tully, animal healer and communicator from Ireland, for a conversation that expands our understanding of consciousness, connection, and the magical beings who share our world. Drawing on Ireland's deep mystical heritage, Lisa traces the origins of the fairy folk — the Tuatha Dé Danann — and how studying her own ancestry opened doorways to regularly conversing with these elemental presences, who now guide her work with animals. She also takes us along on an extraordinary journey to Mongolia, where she witnessed Mongolian shamans channel the spirit of a sacred lake and came away with a profound understanding that the land, the rivers, the trees, and the mountains are living, conscious beings — waiting for us to remember. From the protected Hawthorn trees of Ireland to the semi-wild horses of the Mongolian steppe, Lisa invites us to take even one small step toward these mystical realms — because, as she reminds us, they will meet us tenfold. Places/Concepts mentioned that you may want to explore: Newgrange — the ancient stone structure in Ireland (c. 3000 BC) where light enters the portal on the winter solstice Lake Khövsgöl (she calls it "Lake Hussevol") — the sacred site in Outer Mongolia where she witnessed the shamanic ceremony The Tuatha Dé Danann — the Irish mythological tribe at the heart of fairy folklore, for anyone curious to go deeper into the history Samhain — the Celtic New Year/Halloween origin story she traces, if listeners want to explore that connection further RESOURCES: ⁠Lisa Tully - https://animalhealing.ie/ Do YOU want to be an animal communicator or learn more about Soul Level Intuitive Coaching®?

  8. The Power of Animal Communication

    May 18

    The Power of Animal Communication

    What if the real power of animal communication isn't about receiving messages at all — but about being changed by love? In this episode, Julie, Karen, and Meredith explore how the unconditional love of animals creates the safety for us to finally listen to our own truth, return to wholeness, and remember our connection to something much larger than ourselves. From Julie's story of Lukas and a broken leg in the Alaska mountains, to Karen's cat Dusty who stayed through a divorce, to Meredith's cat Boris who showed her she could trust herself — this conversation is an invitation to see animal communication not as a technique, but as a doorway home.

They will explore topics such as health, behavior, play, and spiritual practices, all from the perspective of the many animals - both alive and in-spirit - they have worked with throughout their careers.
