On February 15, 2020, shortly before the pandemic was declared by WHO, we were guests on Scott Colburn’s podcast Exploring Unexplained Phenomena. Not long afterward, he passed away.
Scott, born on 11-11, was a terrific host and had a broad and comprehensive knowledge about the paranormal. He’d been doing his show for decades.
Today, September 5 2022, I received an email from Suzanne, a Reiki healer in North Carolina about Scott:
Ok, this is going to sound crazy but I think I got a message from Scott ( I was a listener) for you two. I heard coffee, connections and noise canceling headphones and then he showed me the cover of your book with the birds about signs, I see him kind of clapping his hands together, chuckling as I type this. He knows you know he’s ok but I feel like he planned this with you at some point, even as a passing comment. I don’t usually do “ drive by’s” but in this case I felt I had to.
Be well!
Warm Regards,
Suzanne
The book she’s referring to is Secrets of Spirit Communication
I emailed Suzanne and asked if she was a medium. Her response:
Hey Trish,
I don’t consider myself a medium but occasionally someone will get through. I teach Reiki. No website. I keep a really low profile here in the Bible Belt of NC.
It was odd because he popped into my head although I never met him. I did listen to him as I said but his presence has been strong over the past three days so I finally consented and reached out.
I am a member of Unknown Country so he may have connected to me, then you, through my connection to the site. All I know is that he was very determined. I don’t know if you know his daughter but he keeps flashing his kids, showing me that his daughter especially is really missing him right now.
Thanks for all you do and for your response. You know how these things work so I trusted you’d understand.
Warm Regards,
Suzanne
I was curious about whether there was a connection between her job as a Reiki healer and her intuition/mediumistic ability. Since Suzanne mentioned Scott’s daughter, I told her I may have her email address because Scott had hired me to do her natal chart.
I absolutely think that Reiki has helped me to understand gifts that I was afraid of embracing growing up. I use my intuition for my work but I’ve never considered myself a medium. Occasionally something significant will come through from a loved one in a Reiki session but only when it’s in support of that client’s healing.
I believe that as the Reiki energy works, important milestones, signs and symbols help people release and heal. The only way this works for me is when I recognize it’s not me and act as an open conduit. That’s the way my mediumship abilities will come through. Not usually as a stand alone so this instance felt so significant and intentional. I’m not at all surprised that you are able to contact his daughter. I believe that’s what this is truly about. Connecting to his kids.
So I asked Suzanne if she would like to be a guest on our podcast to talk about Reiki and its connection to psychic abilities.
And I did find Scott’s daughters’s email address so I forwarded these emails to her. I hope they provide a measure of comfort that her dad is around!
