S2 E10: A Southern Dialogue with Marianne | Star People Encounters & Supernatural Entities
Marianne was 18 months old when she had her first remembrance of contact with star people, what some might term aliens. We talk about her many encounters with star people, and all the incredibly insightful information they passed on to her as well as delve into topics such as shadow people, black eyed kids, and the succubus & incubus. Marianne has an amazing podcast called Walking the Shadowlands. Please join us! OUR GUEST Marianne has always been a creative person. Whether that is with traditional art, or the performing arts, doing voice-over work for radio promotions in the USA or advertisements for radio – it is something that has always been a part of her life. Marianne is a published illustrator, and is also an author of a children’s story that she is currently working on illustrating. She spent most of her early working career as a nurse, both in public and in private hospitals throughout New Zealand.  Spiritually, she has always had an absolute fascination for all things that go bump in the night, or haunt your dreams. For the unknown, the unexplained, and the paranormal. This started from a very young age, when she had her first experiences with UFO’s, Star People, and Earth Spirit, that are ongoing to this day. Marianne is a spiritual sensitive and has had many experiences with the unseen realms here on this planet. She is not shy about speaking out about her UFO & Star People encounters. So she considers herself very fortunate to be able to combine her love of doing voice work, with her experiences throughout her life in her podcast show Walking the Shadowlands.

S2 E5: A Southern Dialogue with Clare Ford | Switched On Learning
Our guest for this episode of "Southern Dialogue" brings you Clare Ford, from Kent, UK, who has created an online curriculum for children, teens AND parents that target intellectual, emotional, AND spiritual needs. It's called the Switched ON! Academy, and available all over the world online. We tackle how to keep our children "switched on" learners, discuss issues in schooling, and get some great advice and insight about the benefit of reaching children with not only the basics of education, but with ways to raise their emotional quotient, and allow them a way to connect to spirituality. About Our Guest Clare is an author, speaker, coach, healer, tutor and parent who is passionate about ensuring that children and teens are "switched on" learners, accessing their natural gifts, abilities and talents to unlock their true potential and live purposefully.  As an expert educator and award-winning wellbeing entrepreneur, Clare combines her unique skill set to support families around the world.  Clare has seen first-hand the emotional damage that the education system is inflicting on children and young people, stifling their emotional and spiritual growth and causing mental illness, anxiety, depression and suicide. Her passion and enthusiasm to get children and young people motivated, switched on and learning has been the catalyst for developing the Core, Clever and Quantum Curricula.   As a sought-after energy healer and teaching mentor, Clare combines her practical, organized approach with a range of wellbeing and spiritual tools to help people see and reach their true soul's potential. Her past battles with depression and later work-related anxiety in mainstream education have inspired her to innovate and create Switched On, combining education, wellbeing and spirituality for a truly immersive and inspirational learning experience. Clare is often invited to speak on radio shows, summits and industry events. Contact Clare at [email protected] and visit Switched ON!
