00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:29,680
this episode of Spunky Spirit. I am Psychic Medium, Carrie Mugs, and this is the first podcast of 2025.
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:36,880
And honestly, I don't really know, and I kind of have a little bit of an idea of what I'm going to talk about.
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:42,320
Obviously, we're going to talk about manifesting and creating, but mostly just making sure that this year
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:47,760
you're kind to yourself and that you're authentic and you love who you are, because that's really
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:56,400
the most spiritual thing that you can do is be in love with who you are. And so if you're having
00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:03,520
things like depression or sadness, it's because there's something in your life that you're not happy
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:11,040
about. And my goal this year, well, my word this year is create, because I'm going to create a life
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:16,400
that I love. I'm going to create big things. This is a big year. I've got lots of things. In fact,
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:21,680
I'm going to tell you what they are because I want to be accountable. I want to be accountable to you,
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:25,520
and I want you to know because then you guys hold me accountable because you text me or you
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:31,440
email me or you message me and you say, when are you going to do this? When are you going to do this?
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,560
And then it pushes me. And I really dropped the ball in January because I really thought,
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:40,000
you know, I was going to hit the ground running and we're going to go and things happened. And
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:44,800
sometimes you can't always hit the ground running. So I just want you to know that every day you can
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:49,760
start new, right? Every day. You don't have to wait till January 1st. You don't have to wait till
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:53,200
October when sometimes that's when some people start over or feel like they start over. You can
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:58,160
start over anytime. And so I feel like to me, this week is the first week of the year, but I have
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:05,600
lots to do. I have lots. I have gallery events planned that I want to do, but I want to make them
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:11,600
bigger because I'm having such a huge response of people wanting to come that my space that I hold
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:17,440
in my office isn't big enough for them anymore. So I have to find a bigger place. So I'm kind of
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,840
not sure how I'm going to do that. I'm trying to navigate that, but I do know I'm going to have a
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:26,160
gallery in February and I do know I can't have them on weeknights anymore. I used to have them
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:30,880
on Thursdays and I can't do that anymore because because I would have a day full of readings and
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:35,840
then I would have the gallery and I want to do the galleries on days that I don't have readings.
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:40,160
So I'll probably start doing galleries on the weekends instead of on the weeknights. And then
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:44,880
I'm also adding Akashic record readings to my schedule. And I got to figure out how to navigate
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:50,080
that because I got to figure out what nights I'm going to do that because I have to add them on top
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:54,800
of my other readings. So just so much stuff going on. And then I am writing a book this year. So
00:02:54,800 --> 00:03:01,840
and I have new, new, lots of new stuff coming up this year, lots of big things. And so I'm focusing
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:09,120
on mostly my mediumship readings and my mediumship abilities. And and so it's just been and I had
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:17,600
so much, you know, all this that I wanted to do and I was going to hit the ground, you know, in
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:22,000
January with all these events and I was going to have a class on remote viewing in January. And
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:27,120
and honestly, that's going to be pushed back to probably February just because
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,880
I was going to use my vacation time during the holidays to like do all that. But then I ended
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:36,880
up just wanting to spend time with my family. I wanted to rest for a minute. But and I also did
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:43,520
with the help find, you know, just different places that I can have these galleries.
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:47,200
And sorry, if you're not, if you're watching, I have something stuck in my tooth that's
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:51,680
bothering me. But there we go. That was that was nice, wasn't it? So I just want you to know that
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:58,080
give yourself some grace. This year is about being kind to you. This year is about loving you and
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:03,280
loving who you are and doing what you want and creating a life you want. And I always used to
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:09,120
struggle with creating a life you want because in a in a past job or past MLM that I was in and
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:16,640
I'm not bagging on MLMs, they can be great if you if you know how to work them. They'd always say
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:21,360
create the life you want. And even when I was creating it, it wasn't the life I wanted. And
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:25,840
but I, you know, through this journey of entrepreneurship and spiritual
00:04:25,840 --> 00:04:31,360
growth, I have been just kind of responding to what's coming or I've been kind of reacting
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:38,320
or I've been kind of just like letting it flow. And now I'm going to like create it. I'm going to
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:44,800
create what I want. I'm going to create this I'm going to go get it. I'm going to go get it and
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,800
create what I want. And that's what manifesting is all about. You figure out what you want. That's
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,720
the biggest thing, right? Not how everybody else does it, not how it goes or how everyone else
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:58,480
thinks you should do it. It's what you want and what you want to do. Do I want to do events? Do
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:04,160
I want to write a book? Is or is that just something that people expect me to do? So
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:08,080
this year is about figuring out who you are and what you want to create and how that works with
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:14,160
you and how that fits into your life and what you're willing to give up to create that and what
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:18,800
you're willing to not give up and what you, you know, all the things, all the things that
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:24,000
create who you are because we are here to create our lives co-create with with the creator, right
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:31,440
with God. And, and I just know that if you, if you just kind of let let things happen or
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:39,840
sometimes it's not, I mean, life isn't always going to be 100% perfect or always, always great,
00:05:39,840 --> 00:05:47,040
but, and we're going to have ups and downs. But when you create and you figure out what it is that
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:52,720
you want and creating a year that you want and you put it out there, I'm a firm believer that you
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:58,640
always, you know, you get what you put out there. And so I'm putting out there that this is going
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:04,160
to be a great year for me as spiritually and for my followers, my Spunksters, my you, you guys,
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:14,400
it's going to be a great for you because we're going to create magic, magical moments in our
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:19,040
lives. We're going to create magic and good and um, uplifting things. And, and I always,
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:25,760
you know, the reason why I'm sharing this is because I just, I want to be accountable.
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:30,240
And so what you have to ask yourself for this year, what is it that you want and what is it that
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:36,400
you would change or what is it that you could do differently? Do you like the way your day-to-day
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:42,400
life is? What would, if you don't, what could you change about that? And I remember I used to tell
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:47,600
my kids all the time, if you complain about it, you can change it. And my son was like, that is not
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:52,960
true. If you, if you complain about, he's like, that's not always true mom. You can, you know,
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:58,720
and I'm like, anything that you complain about, you can somehow change. It might not be 100%
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:04,640
fixable or 100% fixed, but it's always figure out able to a way that you can, you know, deal
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:13,280
with it or you can handle it or it can become what you can create. You can create it. And
00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:18,880
if you hate your job, you can look for an exit plan. You can kind of start and you think, oh,
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:26,000
I'm stuck here. I make too much money here. The insurance is great. There's no way I can leave
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:30,160
them. That's what you're creating. But if you hate your job and you were like, okay, I'm going to put
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:34,560
out feelers. I'm just going to put it out there that I'm going to find something different. And then
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:38,720
you actively start kind of looking for something. I promise you, things will fall into your, into
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:44,800
your lap, things will fall into place. And if you're in a relationship, that's hard. And you
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:50,240
put out there that you're going to, you know, you could put out lots of different things. If you
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:54,400
feel like you're stuck in it and you can't leave it, then you need to, you know, try and create
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:58,240
ways that you can be happy in it. Be happy in it and, and figure, everything is figure
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:05,600
out able. Everything is figure out able. Don't ever for a minute, ever think that you're stuck
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:10,800
because you have the power to change it. It might take a long time and it might change, it might take
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:17,520
a lot of rethinking things or changing the way you think about things, but you have the power
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:25,920
to change it. And it might take a while, but you really have all that power inside of you. And we
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:31,440
just don't give ourselves enough credit. We don't give ourselves, we don't think we have the power.
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:36,000
We think that we are, we're controlled by outside sources or that we're somebody else's like we,
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:43,520
and I get it because when I was a mom, a single mom with four kids, there was very little that I
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:49,280
could maybe do to change my circumstances. And, but I did, I put it out there that, and it took a
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:56,480
while. It took a long, it took a couple of years, right? Like, and it wasn't always easy, but it,
00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:02,800
if I just thought this is hopeless, I can't make it, I can't do it, then that's what I would create.
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:09,760
But if I just put out there at least that, okay, I want to at least try this. So I want to at least
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:15,680
try this. I've always been the type of person who's just like, we can do it. We just got to figure
00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:21,440
it out. I just got to figure it out. Like, I've always been that I've never really felt like
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:26,480
everything was lost or everything was done. I mean, I've had, when I lost my dad, I thought that
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:33,920
you know, death is really hard. And that's a hard thing to get through. But I've never once
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:39,840
ever thought, I can't do this anymore. I mean, there, you know, when you go through depression,
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:46,160
sometimes you have those thoughts when you're going through really, if you've ever been in the
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,520
deep, deep dark depression, you can have thoughts of like, can I do this anymore? And I, and I,
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:54,000
that's different. Like, that's, that's something that you need. You might need outside help with,
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:57,760
you might need to get help with. But I'm talking about just life in general, if life in general
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:02,720
that you are in a job you don't like a relationship you don't like the situation of your day to day
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:06,960
life is just something you don't like. Everything is figure outable. Marie Forleo says that all the
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:12,080
time and you can figure out a way to love your life or to create a life you love. Like so,
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:17,600
even though I created my, you know, spiritual business, my spiritual, my spiritual practice,
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:23,840
there were things in it that I was like, okay, I love this, but I don't like the fact that I'm
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:29,040
stuck in this. I created, I did not in a million years think that I would be booked out a year.
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:35,680
And so I didn't like put things in my calendar to stop from getting booked out. I should have
00:10:35,680 --> 00:10:41,680
handled that differently. And now I've got to figure out how to fix that. I got to figure out
00:10:41,680 --> 00:10:45,840
how to go in and fix that because I, because I am a slave to my job now, because I don't mean that
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:53,680
route because I love doing readings and I have changed it. So it's only like two or three days
00:10:53,680 --> 00:10:58,480
instead. I used to do four or five a day. And so I don't want to, but I also too, to the point where
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:03,760
if I have to plan a vacation, I have to plan it out. I have to take off like years in advance,
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:09,680
not years, but, you know, months in advance, because if my family were to come to me tomorrow
00:11:09,680 --> 00:11:14,640
and be like, Hey, let's go to a trip here next two months from now, I can't because I'm booked.
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:21,040
And so, so I have to figure out how to make it so, so I can control that I can, so I don't have to,
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:28,800
and I kind of have, I've kind of made it so I only do it like Tuesdays through Thursdays.
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:32,960
And Fridays are my express readings. So and I, and Fridays aren't booked out a year in advance.
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:37,680
So I can always have Fridays to like to Fridays off to Monday. So, so I figured it out, right?
00:11:37,680 --> 00:11:43,360
Everything is figured out. But I remember two years ago, when my daughter was in her burn accident,
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:49,600
I was pretty stuck and I was stuck at every day at five readings and it was miserable because I
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:54,880
couldn't even like, I felt like I couldn't be there for her because I was stuck in every day
00:11:54,880 --> 00:12:00,160
doing four or five readings. And so that was the turning point where I was like, I can't do this
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:04,480
anymore. I can't because she needed me and I needed to be there. But I was, I was, I was in this thing
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:10,720
where people have been waiting forever for a reading. And I felt bad because when you are waiting
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:17,360
for a mediumship reading, you're waiting to talk to your loved ones and people have been waiting
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:21,040
for a really long time. And I don't want to be the one to be like, can't do it. So I rarely,
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:24,800
rarely reschedule or cheat or reschedule my readings because I just know that a lot of times
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:30,720
people have been waiting for so long and it's so heartbreaking and I just can't do it. I don't have
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:34,640
anything to do it unless I'm super sick and I can't and I, and I can't connect. Then that's when I'll
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:42,720
reschedule. But I, at that time, I didn't even have time places to reschedule people because I was so
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:48,080
like booked. So the moral of the story is, and I felt stuck. I felt stuck and I didn't know how to
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:53,440
change it. And it didn't change overnight because I had to be responsible for the readings that had
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:58,080
already been booked, right? But it did change. I went in, figured out some tweaks and it did
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:03,040
change within a year's time. So, but at the, at the time I felt stuck. I felt like I wanted to
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:09,440
quit. I felt like I was overwhelmed. And so just know that these points in your life can come,
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:14,640
but they're just triggers for you to realize that what is going on or what's working, what is not
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:20,240
working. What's going, if you're feeling those emotions and you're feeling that stuckness and
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:24,560
you're feeling like there's no way out, that's not working. And so you got to figure out a way
00:13:24,560 --> 00:13:29,040
to, to make it work that, that is okay with you. And even if it doesn't happen overnight, but it
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:34,960
will change in the future. And this is what I call being nice to yourself. Don't just show up
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:42,240
because, because everybody expects you to show up. Show up because you want to, because you feel
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:46,960
that passion, because show up for the day, because you want to be the best mom you can be. And show
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:53,200
up that day because you feel good about what you're doing and you feel like you're contributing. And
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:57,760
a lot of times we don't. And so if you're in that this year, I challenge you to figure out how to
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:03,520
make it so it's like that it make it so you're not dreading every day, you're not dreading every
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:10,960
single like you're not just hoping for the best, the best, the next best thing to come along or the
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:16,720
next vacation. So and it takes a lot of work, it does. And so don't just think that this is,
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:21,680
but if nothing changes, nothing changes. And so if you don't do anything to try and change it,
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:29,840
then it's never going to change. But if you do at least put little implements or put little things
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:35,840
in to try and change it, your future self is going to thank you. So me today, thanks that
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:42,880
Carrie two years ago, that she switched that around outside still be stuck doing four to five
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:49,040
readings a day, Monday through Friday. And now I have enough room that I can start doing events,
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:55,520
and I can start teaching classes, and I can start doing, but I still feel like I don't have enough
00:14:55,520 --> 00:15:01,040
time to do that stuff. And the events are starting to get pretty, the galleries and the group readings
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:07,440
are starting to get pretty big. And so now I've got to tweak something else. And I've got to tweak
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:12,560
and figure out if I'm going to start touring, if I'm going to start, you know, doing different
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:18,880
reading different galleries all over everywhere. And so that's just kind of because I do have a big,
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:25,040
you know, a big, a following in North Carolina, and I do have some people, you know, and I have
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:31,040
people everywhere that call and get readings. And so, and I don't want to give up the, I don't want
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:37,280
to give up the personal readings, because I do know a lot of mediums will shift out of doing
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:41,760
individual readings, and they'll go into events. And, and I don't really want to do that. I always
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:46,720
want to do individual readings, but I also want to add more so I can reach more people, because I
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:51,600
want to help more people. And so that's what 2025 is going to be about is having to reach out and
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:56,960
help more people, but also be kind to myself. So I want you to figure out how to do that too,
00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:02,400
how you can do the things you want to do, but be kind to yourself, give yourself grace. We are so
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:08,320
hard. I know my kids, they can be so hard on themselves a lot. And it breaks my heart, because
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:15,680
if they could see them the way I see them, or the way God sees them, they wouldn't be so hard on
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:23,200
themselves. And I do the same. And I know you do too. I know you're super hard on yourself. So give,
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:28,560
you know, if you don't have a word, if you're not, give yourself some grace, maybe have grace be
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:33,840
your word this year. Me, I am going to create. I got a lot of big things coming. And this is
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:40,880
basically pretty much, you know, what this podcast was about. I haven't been on for a long time.
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:45,440
This is the first one of 2025. And I wanted to ramp you up and get you excited about what's coming
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:49,840
up for the year, because it's been kind of hard ever, you know, the last couple years have been
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:54,400
a little bit about growth, a little bit about figuring out who you are, being authentic. And
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:59,920
now it's like this year's just putting that stuff into play. All of that cool stuff you learned and
00:16:59,920 --> 00:17:04,960
all of this stuff that's coming up. It's like, here we go. Let's, let's use it. Let's use it to do
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:10,000
better, to be better and to love who we are. And so yeah, it's just, and I have to be honest too,
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:16,960
I'm going to be 100% vulnerable with you. Last year was a little bit hard because I
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:21,680
ended up having to take some medication that I don't, and I, and I have nothing against medication.
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:28,640
I 100% believe that doctors and holistic and stuff, all of that combined, it's, it's all of
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:35,600
it's good. You have to do what's good for you. I just know because of my ADHD, sometimes medicines
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:40,880
can be different for me. They can act weird. So caffeine actually makes me drowsy. I'm steroid
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:45,920
shots that are supposed to make you energy. Sometimes they can make me tired. So sometimes
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,840
different medications have a different effect on me. And I, so I don't really like to take them
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:54,880
because I don't really know what kind of effect, but sometimes you need them. Sometimes you do
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,400
need them. And I was going, I was having some issues with some, some body stuff, anyways.
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:05,760
And so I kind of started to like blood sugar stuff. And, and I, the, the medicine that I was on
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:14,880
gave me severe anxiety, like severe anxiety and intrusive thoughts. And it was, it was such a,
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:20,800
such a thing that I like constantly had to like, every day, walk myself through it, talk myself
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:28,000
through it. So crazy because it didn't affect my readings. Like it was, I was, luckily I was confident
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:32,400
enough in my mediumship skills and my connection to spirit that it didn't affect that. But what it
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:37,440
did affect is like different things with my, you know, different things with securities or in,
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:44,720
in intrusive thoughts with my family. And that was hard. And so now that the, the medicine's
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:52,720
completely out of my system. And now that it's just like a new me is emerging. And I'm just like,
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:58,480
going to go get it. I'm going to go after it and go get it. And I just wish that all of us could
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:03,760
feel that every, you know, every beginning of the year or every day or every month beginning of each
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:09,040
month. And just feel that new person coming out and being like, this is, this is it. This is when,
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:14,080
you know, this is it. So this year, if you don't already have your word, I would suggest courage,
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:21,120
courage to move forward, courage to be you, courage to be authentic, courage to figure out who you
00:19:21,120 --> 00:19:26,880
are and grace, grace, give yourself grace, give yourself love, try to see your eyes the way God
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:33,760
would see you or the creator would see you. Because if you knew how much your spiritual
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:37,760
team loved you or how, how beautiful and how awesome you were and how much power you had,
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:42,880
you wouldn't, you would know that you are so unconditionally loved. You are so unconditionally
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:49,760
loved that, that your spiritual team lets you think whatever you want, which is sometimes that
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:55,280
you're not good enough. And I just want you to remember this year who you are and that it's
00:19:55,280 --> 00:20:02,480
going to be good and you are going to step into your power. And it's going to be the year that all
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:07,040
of this stuff that we've grown and grow to get grew together and learned and all the spiritual
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:12,400
things this year, they're going to be awesome. And this year, I'm going to totally try and revamp
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:17,920
my podcast. I'm going to have lots of different interviews on I'm going to have lots of different
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:22,800
people that do different things because as much as I love to sit and talk and tell you things,
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:28,720
I know that it's awesome. You know, my husband when he was on with me, that was like my biggest
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:33,360
podcast episode because I think it was the interview thing and I think just my husband's
00:20:33,360 --> 00:20:37,600
cute. So, so this year we are going to I have lined up some other mediums that we're going to talk to
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:44,000
and some Akashic record readers that we're going to talk to. Speaking of Akashic record
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:47,680
readers, I am doing Akashic record readings and they will be up and ready probably sometime this
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:52,560
week. I'm only going to do two a week. So, and I think they're going to be available on Tuesdays
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:59,360
and Thursday nights, but they could go pretty fast. I'm going to actually kind of block it so you
00:20:59,360 --> 00:21:05,280
can only they can only be scheduled three months up to three months in advance because I don't want
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:10,240
to get stuck year out again. And so then every month they'll open up. So when January ends, I'll
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:16,480
open up another month. So then I'll open up the third month with the beat, which would be April.
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:21,280
So just know that there's only going to be three months and there's only two a week with those.
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:26,080
And if I get to start doing them and I don't love them, then I'm going to stop doing them
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:32,160
because that's because it's about what you love, right? It's about what you and and I know right
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:38,000
now I love mediumship. I love, you know, connecting to the other side, but I have had lots of people
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:43,600
that want Akashic record readings. And so I'm going to try it and we're going to see how it works.
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:47,920
And it's okay to change your mind. It's okay to say like, you know what, that isn't working for me.
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:51,760
So I'm going to stop doing that. And that might happen this year. I have lots of changes coming.
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,840
I have lots of things going on. And I might get into it and be like, you know what, that doesn't
00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,440
work for me. And I have every right to change my mind. I have every right because I'm creating what
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:03,840
I love. And you do too. You have every right to change your mind. So, so when you make commitments,
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:09,360
make sure that you're not committing yourself for too long, because if you end up not liking it,
00:22:09,360 --> 00:22:13,280
you can stop it. You can't you, everything is figure outable. So this is the year. This is
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:18,000
the year we're going to grow together. This is the year that my podcasts are going to rock.
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:22,240
Give me some time though. I tell you, I'm going to do all this. And then I still have,
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:27,360
you know, seven kids, I still have a husband, I still have a family, I still, you know, do other
00:22:27,360 --> 00:22:31,840
things too. So give me some time because I want to, I'm not a perfectionist, but I want to be good.
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:35,920
I think you deserve the best. And so I want, like with my galleries and my events, I need more room.
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:40,960
So I want to find a space that accommodates all those things, the parking and, you know,
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:47,360
all of the stuff I have to take into consideration. And the book, I have to spend, you know,
00:22:47,360 --> 00:22:53,360
so much time a day working on a book. And then, so just, you know, I'm telling you this because
00:22:53,360 --> 00:22:57,920
I'm being accountable because 2025 is going to rock, but also to give, give yourself some grace
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:03,040
and give others grace, give them some time. I had a recent video come out on one of my galleries
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:08,160
and it got a lot of response. And now people are like, what's the schedule? What's the schedule?
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:12,640
I don't know yet. I'm trying and I'm doing the best I can, but as soon as I get that schedule,
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:17,120
I will get it out to you. But here's another thing too. My people that are on my newsletter,
00:23:17,120 --> 00:23:22,080
they get first dibs. So I will send the newsletter out, they get first dibs on, on tickets for those
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:28,080
events. And then I post it to social media. And it's been to the point where my newsletters sell
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:35,040
out the events and I've never had to post them on social media. And that's why people, when they
00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:39,520
saw this event on social media, this video of this event, they're like, what the heck? I didn't
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:43,520
know these were even happening. It's because my newsletter people got it first. So if you need
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:47,760
to be on my newsletter, go to www.carriemugs.com, C-A-R-I-M-U-G-Z.com and sign up for my newsletter.
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:56,640
And also too, you can also follow me on Instagram or my Facebook page at spunky spirit. Instagram
00:23:56,640 --> 00:24:02,560
is spirit.medium.carriemugs or my TikTok @carriemugs. That's where you'll find out all of this
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:08,160
information. You can even follow me on my Eventbrite page. They usually email as soon as I post something
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:14,480
and when it's available, they'll email all of the people who are following me on Eventbrite. So
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:18,480
those are the way you can find out about events. But the reason why I haven't been putting them on
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:23,360
social media is because all my newsletter people get to them first. But I am starting to, you know,
00:24:23,360 --> 00:24:29,520
make those events bigger. I'm going to have more people come, which means, you know, kind of more
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:34,720
work for me because more spirits are going to come and it's going to be more. So I have to like,
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:39,280
it's going to be an ease into it. It's not going to be like 100%. Let's go. Let's go. It's going to
00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:44,400
be an ease. And also too, I have lots of other, you know, things that are reaching out and trying
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:50,640
to collaborate. And so I just got to get that in order. So thank you for being patient with me
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:55,440
and thank you for understanding. It is going to be a big year and everything is figure-outable.
00:24:56,160 --> 00:25:00,880
And I'm just so honored that you're with me during this because I still have clients that come to me
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:07,280
that came to me when I was doing readings in my home in the back bedroom. So it's just an honor to
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:16,000
me to be part of your journey too. And I don't know what I would do without you. And so I try,
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:21,600
try my hardest to honor me and you at the same time. But I love you guys so much. And I know that,
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:30,400
you know, if you're in a spot right now that you don't love and you're in a spot that you,
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:36,080
it's a monotone or it's the same thing or you're not loving it. 2025 is your year. It's your year
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:42,640
to break through, to love who you are, to love your life, to have fun, to do, to be brave and to
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:48,560
have courage and to give yourself grace while you're doing it because you're worth it. You're so
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:53,680
worth it. We're all worth it. And I hope that any part of these podcasts this year that I have planned
00:25:53,680 --> 00:26:00,000
help you do that. That's kind of the theme is to just help you move forward, to give you courage
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:06,000
and grace at the same time, courage and grace. So I love you guys so much, so, so much. And I'm so
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:12,800
excited that you're part of this journey with me because I just don't know, I couldn't do without
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:16,640
you. 100%, it could not do without you. So I love you guys and I will see you next week.
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:22,640
