    S8E1 Becoming Whole: A Story of Faith and Inner Power With Cosette

    Wes Coons records on location with Cosette, who interviews him about his shift from successful real estate broker and Marine to spiritual healer after a painful divorce, a relationship marked by severe mental illness, and frightening paranormal attacks in his Virginia Beach home. Wes describes trying "ancient tools," including a Catholic exorcism and holy water, and a pivotal priest-led session where he realizes Jesus was present to love him through trauma rather than remove it. He shares how these experiences led him to Reiki, quantum healing, and later NLP/quantum time techniques to remove limiting beliefs, emphasizing vibration, self-love, healing the inner child, and releasing control. Wes discusses energetic boundaries, long-distance healing, and advising others to take Reiki 1, be vulnerable, stop identifying with trauma, and "be willing to receive the miracle," offering contact via vbhealer.com and Instagram.     00:00 Welcome Back On Location 00:20 No Intro Just Chat 01:33 Cosette Takes Over 03:43 Broker To Healer Origin 08:25 Fear Inside The House 11:38 Holy Water Showdown 15:56 Faith Versus Darkness 18:28 Seeing Jesus In Trauma 23:26 Lessons Hope And Grit 26:09 Living With New Gifts 28:57 Healing Aftereffects 36:19 Reiki Path And Purpose 42:34 Quantum Healing Explained 43:50 Long Distance Energy Work 46:44 Tools Faith and Frequency 49:56 Hope and Reiki Basics 54:00 Reiki Lessons Self Love 57:01 NLP Timeline Healing 01:02:05 Energy Blocks and Miracles 01:04:02 Breaking the Trauma Story 01:08:13 How to Reach the Healer 01:10:16 Receive the Miracle 01:21:21 Meditation as Medicine 01:22:16 Final Blessing and Sendoff

    S7E10 From Siberia to stage five of awakening. Coming to loving SELF as a prerequisite to power with Katya Melvin Love Goddess

    Katya Melvin on Self-Love, Awakening Stages, and Becoming the Creatrix Host Wes Coons welcomes Katya Melvin, a Russia-born coach and boudoir/pin-up photographer who calls herself the "Love Goddess" and helps women fall in love with themselves, reclaim power, and live authentically. Katya shares immigrating from Siberia to the U.S. at 18 with $500 and describes her dragon back tattoo as a symbol of surrendering into "energetics" and later discovering a dragon as her business's spirit animal. She outlines five "stages of awakening"—victim, rebellion/anger triggered by one of the "four Ds" (death, disease, divorce, debt), peace and responsibility, love goddess (self-love), and creatrix (creating life by frequency). She explains how stillbirth led her into photography and why women often cry seeing unedited images that restore self-worth and confidence. Katya invites listeners to follow her on Substack (Katya Melvin) and urges women to decide to change their lives without waiting for rescue. www.Subtrack.com @katyamelvin Love Goddess 00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro 01:53 From Siberia to America 02:37 Dragon Tattoo and Business Power 07:16 Feminine Power and Self Worth 09:37 Five Stages of Awakening 17:39 Frequency Boundaries and Inner Circle 23:47 Ease Over Fighting Mindset 28:32 Courageous Leap at 18 30:10 Boudoir Photography Origin Story 35:20 Where to Follow and Final Message

    S7E9 From War to Peace: The Journey of Spiritual Awakening

    From War to Healing: Wes Coons Reunites with Jerry and Talks Faith, Vibration, and Breaking Generational Curses Host Wes Coons returns to "Enlightenment Unknown" after a month away and welcomes Jerry as the show's first male guest and a lifelong friend. They recount a 1990 night in Virginia Beach after Wes returned from the Gulf War heartbroken, when Jerry drunkenly walked for hours to 67th Street guided by "God's grace," including a ride from a milkman, and Wes later found him on the beach. The conversation turns to how the past shapes the present, breaking generational curses (including Wes ending a family pattern of sexual abuse), and the idea that life and reality come from inner energy, words, and vibration. Jerry describes receiving his first healing session with Wes, who says he is only a conduit, and they discuss prayer, humility, spiritual gifts, and healing stories, including a widow whose life improved and a client whose facial droop changed after a session. Wes shares traumatic combat memories, suicidal moments, and finding hope, emphasizing always moving forward.   00:00 Welcome Back Update 00:39 Meet Jerry Old Friends 01:38 Beach Walk Story 04:00 Milkman Ride Sunrise 05:36 Lessons From The Past 07:35 Breaking Family Curses 08:15 Life Comes From You 09:32 Religion Versus Relationship 10:11 First Healing Session 13:06 Reconnecting Forever Young 13:52 War Homecoming Trauma 16:33 Jerry Sees Wes Gift 19:07 Chrissy Healing Testimony 20:00 Faith Amid Tragedy 20:55 Vibration and Social Energy 22:37 Calling for Help 24:42 Always Move Forward 28:06 Healing Work and Humility 30:56 Prayer Shifts Reality 34:01 Tears and Self Acceptance 36:51 Prayer Like a Snowstorm 38:48 Closing Gratitude and Farewell

    S7E8 The Spiritual Path: Navigating Messages Beyond the Veil

    Nancy Gianni Gutierrez on Intuition, Mediumship, and Quantum Time Technique—Coming Out of the Metaphysical Closet Host Wes Coons welcomes his friend Nancy to Enlightenment Unknown in Virginia Beach to discuss her intuitive abilities, receiving messages from the dead, and her path into metaphysical work after a "dark night of the soul." Nancy explains how formal education can disconnect people from intuition, and how she helps women return to their inner knowing through mindset mentoring and sharing her journey, including research into psychic phenomena, past lives, near-death experiences, and synchronicity. Wes shares his own experiences of slowing time and remote viewing, and both address fear of telling others about spiritual gifts and "coming out of the metaphysical closet," including Nancy starting her podcast Alchemy with Nancy. Nancy describes childhood trauma and healing, draws parallels to artist Hilma af Klint, and promotes a small Paris retreat featuring Hilma af Klint and Monet exhibits, plus quantum time technique meditation, with contact details and a Virginia Beach October event led by Megan Blacksmith.   00:00 Welcome and Introductions 00:43 Nancy's Spiritual Gifts 02:41 Dark Night Awakening 06:08 Wes's Sudden Abilities 09:48 Healing and Intuition Work 13:57 Coming Out Spiritually 20:06 Trauma and Healing Roots 23:32 Hilma af Klint Story 25:28 Paris Retreat Details 29:02 Quantum Time Technique 30:55 Closing Thanks and Wrap

    S7E7 Generational Healing: Finding Freedom Through Ceremony

    Rope & Reiki Surrender Sessions: Root Healing, Wabi-Sabi, and Breaking Generational Curses Host Wes Coons records on location at his friend Mandy's house for "Enlightenment Unknown," discussing generational healing and a recent "surrender session" they did together. Mandy explains she partners with Katya to guide clients through releasing what no longer serves them, while Mandy provides a self-developed blend of rope work and Reiki (sometimes including sound like drumming, bowls, and tuning forks) aimed at deep "root work." They discuss knots and fiber arts as carrying history and protective symbolism, and connect healing to Wabi-Sabi and kintsugi—finding beauty in imperfection and mending "cracks." Wes shares how the session unexpectedly brought up military trauma, reflects on addiction recovery and choosing change, and they discuss boundaries, radical acceptance, and rewriting personal stories. Mandy notes she is an ordained minister officiating a wedding, is mobile, hosts monthly sessions at Boiling Point Boudoir Studio, and can be reached at mandy@thealchemicalartisans.com   00:00 Welcome and Mission 00:18 On Location With Mandy 00:33 Meet Abby the Velcro Dog 01:14 What Is a Surrender Session 01:50 Rope Reiki and Shibari Roots 02:48 Knots as Magic and Protection 04:58 Why the Rope Journey Works 06:53 Wabi Sabi and Healing Scars 09:30 Rock Bottom and Choosing Change 11:55 Energy Work and Self Mending 12:27 Ordained Minister and Weddings 14:20 Parenting Healing and Breaking Cycles 15:58 Raising Little Mystics 16:38 Reiki Journey Timeline 17:12 Aging and Finding Purpose 18:52 Reiki Blessed Life 20:40 Tech Meets Energy Healing 23:47 Words Alignment Shift 25:16 Radical Acceptance Tools 27:21 Rewriting Trauma Stories 28:51 How to Work With Mandy 31:09 Gratitude and Farewell

    Daydreams, Miracles, and Rewriting Your Story   Host Wes Coons welcomes listeners to "Enlightenment Unknown Life of a Spiritual Nomad" from Virginia Beach, thanks a growing audience (notably in Vietnam), and reflects on a quote from "Goodbye, Christopher Robin" about how love and imagination can change the world. He shares how "daydream" energy helps him become an open channel for healing, urges listeners not to trade their dreams for shame, money, or family expectations, and describes his own shift from real estate to embracing a spiritual gift and writing a children's series. Coons emphasizes noticing lessons in daily life, changing negative self-talk, setting boundaries, asking for what you need, and becoming a "miracle" for others. He discusses forgiveness as already given but needing to be received, his experiences with Jesus, his view of struggle versus suffering, and encourages seeking help, rewriting one's story, and staying present for unexpected blessings, closing with love, contact info, and an invitation to share the show.     00:00 Welcome and Gratitude 00:42 Daydreaming and Healing Flow 02:21 Quitting on Dreams 03:42 Awakening and Real Talk 05:29 Writing Books and Support 07:07 One Shift Changes All 10:09 Be Someone's Miracle 12:42 Receiving Forgiveness 14:29 Loved Through Darkness 16:26 Demons and Struggle 20:40 Rock Bottom and Asking Help 22:40 Rewrite Your Story 24:13 Inspiration From a Friend 27:17 War Memories and Coming Home 29:42 Owning Small Wins 31:33 Closing Thanks and Where to Find Me   www.vbhealer.com

    S7E5 Reprogramming Pain: A Conversation with Hypnotherapist Sarah Michelle

    Healing Chronic Pain with Hypnosis: Reprogramming the Brain with Sarah Michelle     Host Wes Coons opens with affirmations and introduces hypnotherapist and nutritional practitioner Sarah Michelle, who specializes in relieving chronic pain. Sarah explains that after roughly 12 weeks, pain can become a learned brain signal reinforced by hypervigilance, fear of movement, and physiological changes like reduced oxygen to an area; hypnosis helps reprogram these patterns without dismissing pain as "not real." She contrasts stage hypnosis with therapeutic work and describes hypnosis as a focused, relaxed state similar to being absorbed in a movie, often requiring multiple sessions to uncover deeper beliefs; she also uses Integral Eye Movement Therapy to reduce emotional charge in memories. They discuss identity around symptoms, authority effects from medical diagnoses, emotional roots of pain, and Wes shares healing experiences (including cord-cutting and past-life regression). Sarah offers virtual/in-person sessions in Virginia Beach and promotes her six-week "H and Pain" group starting April 23 with an "in light" $100 discount code.   00:00 Affirmations and Intentions 00:18 Welcome and Guest Intro 01:47 Chronic Pain Story 02:00 How Hypnosis Rewires Pain 04:13 Fear of Movement Patterns 05:37 Finding Hypnotherapy Path 07:51 What Hypnosis Really Is 09:55 Sessions NLP and Tools 11:51 Energy Cycles and Astrology 14:22 Career Alignment and Burnout 18:18 Beyond Pain Other Issues 18:52 Social Anxiety Intake Process 20:20 Subconscious Journey Setup 21:27 Coffee Addiction Surprise Root 21:56 Eye Movement Memory Shift 22:40 Why Healing Stays Hidden 24:27 Cord Cutting Breakup Relief 26:22 Past Life Unworthiness Release 28:04 Chronic Pain Emotional Roots 29:50 Disease Identity and Doctors 31:37 Miracles and Receiving Blessings 35:26 Virtual Sessions and Program 37:07 Group Hypnosis Macro Micro Work 38:12 Closing Thanks and Takeaway     www.sarahhypnosis.com   www.vbhealer.com

    Jessica Desilets on Monroe Institute Focus Levels, Hemi-Sync, and Gateway Voyage Online Host Wes Coons welcomes special guest Jess, a Monroe Institute outreach trainer, to discuss consciousness exploration through specific sound frequencies that induce altered states labeled as "focus levels." Jess explains the Monroe Institute's 50+ years of research and Hemi-Sync technology using binaural beats to help align brain hemispheres and guide participants into deep meditative states, along with preparatory tools that can be applied in daily life for relaxation, protection, and strengthening connection with one's energy body. She describes the Institute's rose-quartz mountain setting and the sense of "coming home" many participants feel.
