Today, Loretta welcomes Karen Kubicko who’s here to help us remember: we are eternal souls in the classroom of life, growing through love, guided by spirit, and empowered by the infinite wisdom we already carry Karen Kubicko is a gifted psychic intuitive, past-life regression hypnotherapist, certified hypnotist, Reiki Master, author, and beloved YouTube teacher. Her awakening began with a near-death experience in 2001 that cracked her heart wide open to the metaphysical world.

Trained personally by Dr. Brian Weiss and certified by the National Guild of Hypnotists, Karen has remembered almost 200 of her own past lives and guided hundreds of others to do the same. Through this sacred work she has released lifelong asthma, transformed painful relationship cycles, reclaimed ancient wisdom, and even watched a birthmark from a past-life gunshot fade away. Karen’s psychic gifts—clairvoyance, clairaudience, clairsentience—allow her to connect clients with spirit guides, angels, and soul memories for profound emotional and energetic healing. She is the author of Life Is Just Another Class—One Soul’s Journey Through Past Life Regression, Making True Love—Healing Relationship Patterns Through Past Life Regression, and the beautiful new workbook 10 Signs You’ve Lived a Past Life.

Today, Loretta welcomes Wayne R. Cesaro who has lived a life shaped by adventure, service, and a profound awareness of the unseen. A U.S. Navy veteran who rose to the rank of Master Mariner, Wayne spent decades sailing the world’s oceans, navigating both physical and spiritual horizons. From commanding ships at sea to exploring ancient ruins and exploring the mysteries of the soul, his path has been guided—often literally—by unseen hands and moments of divine intervention. Wayne’s new book, Spirit Guides and Angels: Death and Taxes, is far more than a memoir—it’s a deeply personal, courageous exploration of how the celestial intersects with the ordinary. Through vivid storytelling, Wayne invites readers into a lifetime of mystical experiences: fevers broken by ancient healing traditions, near-death awareness, out-of-body journeys, and uncanny encounters with benevolent forces that have shaped his destiny. His writing reveals that guidance is always present, whispering through synchronicities, dreams, and the quiet urgings of intuition.
