My biggest love is being a chef, having worked from Cook to Head Chef &amp; everything in between! When I was in school I came to the realization I had the ability to sense vibes, energies, intentions, &amp; emotions that aren't always my own. I can pick up on residual energies &amp; spirits, often with the ability to sense the past &amp; different types of people &amp; emotions that once inhabited an area, or an actual spirit haunting a location. I'm a full-time comedian, podcaster, researcher, voice artist, author, &amp; lover of the funner, more cheerful, &amp; compassionate side of life.Rebecca Russell is my wife, best friend, &amp; co-host of the show. Also an empath, she &amp; I have come to learn much about the the spirit realm &amp; the unexplained. In real life we're just down to earth people with a relaxed &amp; fun sensibility. Sometimes we're fun-loving &amp; humorous, sometimes we're deep &amp; very real. Rebecca was a medical assistant for over 18 years in a major pediatric office &amp; now works as a customer service supervisor for a major grocery store. We're all about trying to make the world feel more comfortable, fair, less punitive, more classy, fun-loving, &amp; have more positive energy, fairness, dignity, &amp; good cheer.Welcome to Surviving Empathy Podcast!
