Insider’s Guide to The Other Side
Did you know we can turn back time? Or scare away nightmares with a little black rock? Or that dead people can hide your car keys? How about that humans have worshiped the power of crystals long before the hippies?
Brenda Rose (a natural born gifted psychic and teacher) and Julie Rieger (author, The Ghost Photographer, and a natural-born comedienne) will guide you through otherworldly stories and insights to help you harness the power of The Other Side on their iHeart Radio podcast, Insider’s Guide to The Other Side.
WTF is Happiness: The Mental Sphere
Today, Brenda and Julie continue the discussion of the pursuit of happiness without shame. You’ll learn a prayer, affirmation, and tapping technique to use when your mind turns against you. Also why the power of music can regulate and process your emotions.
Happiness: Friends and Family
Today, we discuss the relationships that are crucial to our well-being. Money and status do not benefit your happiness as family and friends do. The bonding that shared experiences bring is an essential reminder that how you feel matters, and what you feel and when you feel it is an indicator of your happiness and authenticity.
How Solar Flares You
Julie and Brenda discuss solar flares—those explosions that occur on the surface of the Sun that affect everything from human emotions, behaviors in the animal kingdom, our weather, communication devices, and both nature-made and man-built structures.
Should I stay or should I go?
Trigger Warning: Assisted Suicide Theme. Julie and Brenda discuss the tender and complex subject of assisted suicide—with respect to the freedom of individual choice—without judgment or ego.
WTF is Happiness?
Julie and Brenda discuss how important spirituality is to your well-being and how openness, presence, and trust are the pillars that uphold the framework of faith. Earth School is an extraordinary sacred journey, and the path toward happiness can be found and felt all along the way.
Take the Quantum Leap

The Tracy Episode
Today we answer questions from our listener Tracy. We dig into the complexity of feelings, the importance of “grounding” and how to do that, the diversity of stones and crystals, the power of grief, and the importance of tears.
What is Balance?
Today, it’s all about finding balance. Because finding balance is all about surfing the waves of Earth School, with the Other Sides Guides as your surfboard.
If I were an alien…
Today Julie muses on the concept of “superiority.” Where does it come from? Is it fear based? A longing for power? And, she asks, how would aliens view our human tendency to divide one another?
Nodes “Mooning”
Did you know that the Nodes of the moon are shifting signs in the cosmos? This movement occurs every 18 months, and the energy it brings activates deep change with you too.
Insider’s Insights #25
Tune in today for another round of Insider’s Insights, where we address your questions and come together to share our Earth School Journeys. Because we all want to be seen, heard, respected, and understood…here on Earth School and into the beautiful beyond of the Other Side.
Changing the Picture
Because Earth School is hard, without the ability to find love, lead with compassion, and change the picture so it looks and feels more in tune with the Other Side.
Insider’s Insights: Stuff-n-Things
Today we answer a few ever-thoughtful questions and inquiries from our listeners. First, an update on Julie’s graveyard purchase, where we learn a bit more about the history of her home’s former inhabitants and speak briefly with their Spirits (via Brenda’s gift of mediumship) to clarify their wishes from the Other Side.
Hotel Grief
Today Brenda discusses common themes she hears during readings from those who have departed. We’ll also talk about the guilt that comes with healing from loss, the difference between acknowledgment and preparation concerning death, and how all these tie into facing your own mortality.
The Witch & The Fool
Today’s episode is dedicated to all that we learn when we embark upon a new journey—about ourselves, others, and the world at large. Before any of us enter the space of The Fool, full of curiosity, play, and wonder, we feel uncertain and afraid. Julie and Brenda will calm your nerves with guidance for diving in so the Universe will rise up and meet you.
The Season of Alien
Today’s episode is inspired by a recent article in Popular Mechanics. Professor of Pathology School of Medicine at Stanford University, Gary Nolan, says, without a doubt, aliens have 100% already arrived. What makes this declaration so unusual is never before has a member of academia publicly acknowledged alien existence. So tune in, buckle up, and enjoy the ride…because Earth School is hard, and the aliens are here.
Aye, Aye, Aye, AI.
Explore the successes and limitations of AI with Julie and Brenda. Though caution is warranted, denying AI’s presence won’t make it vanish. Join us on this unique journey through Earth School as we embrace AI’s existence and navigate its challenges together.
Insider’s Insights: Meditation Hookup
Today, your Other Side Guides share their meditation tips and tricks to get you started on your own practice or enhance the one you already have going.
Julie Bought a Cemetery
Today Julie and Brenda discuss connecting deeper with the Spirits at Julie’s newly acquired home. They will discuss the importance of respecting, honoring, and preserving family heritage both here for the living and for those beyond the veil. Earth School is hard, real estate can be dicey, and sometimes the Other Side might reside right in your own backyard.
Seeing the Invisible
If you struggle with accessing your intuition—often feeling like you’re unable to “see the signs” or hear the “whispers” this is the episode for you! Navigating the world through intuitive guidance can be difficult for many, leading to frustrations and the feeling that you lack the spiritual gifts others have. So it’s a good thing to learn that there are physical tools you can use to access your intuition, talk with your guides, and amplify your spirit connection.
Life Choices: Take 1
Today Brenda and Julie offer you a map to your ideal destination. You’ll learn how to pay attention to your body’s cues when making choices so that your decisions honor your innate navigation system. Earth School is hard—without the ability to trust yourself.
Sh*t Ain’t Real
Habits such as comparison, self-limiting stories, and misdirected energy make you feel all tangled inside. Awareness of your energetic engagement helps you move from habit, comfort, and dissociation into a space of growth and inspiration. Today, you’ll put on your Other Side journalism hat and get to the source of your fact-vs-fiction mentality. Because Earth School is hard without a bit of self-love via self-inquisition.
Grief, continued…
After losing her mother to Alzeihmer’s over a decade ago, today, Julie shares the evolution of her grief process, inspiring us all to lean into the quiet and the profound. Earth School is hard without the unbreakable bond that only love can bring.
We’re still not okay
Finding the space to bring the highest version of you forward is one of the hardest Earth School lessons, and awareness is key. Today, Brenda shares a few of her favorite mindfulness practices to help you navigate some of Earth School’s toughest questions.
Anger Danger
Anger’s vibration is intense, and matching its frequency is seductive. Staying grounded and present before responding can be difficult yet spiritually essential when confronted with its energy. Today we discuss how you can better understand your emotions.
I Saw the Sun Signs
Your Sun Sign helps you better understand your gifts, blindspots, challenges, and opportunities during this lifetime. Today, Brenda Rose breaks down the Sun Signs into their elements—fire, water, earth, and air, bringing a fresh outlook to each sign from ignition (Aries) to landing (Capricorn). By understanding the Sun signs—their motivations and mantras—you’ll gain the ability to view the world with each zodiac sign’s perspective, bringing connections and clarity.
Cosmic Chaos
In today’s episode, we dive into cosmic and planetary pulls—how the moon expands our emotions and sun flares trigger our tempers. This is a reminder that everything changes, control is an illusion, nothing is a given, and going with the flow is a power move. Because Earth School is hard, and sometimes the hand of the Divine is best viewed from space.
The Aura Exit
Have you ever wondered what energy stays behind and what energy moves with you after death? Knowing that energy cannot be created or destroyed—it simply changes state. Today’s episode invites you to explore, consider, and contemplate your energy…because Earth School is hard, and Energy is Everything.
Saturn in Pisces
Saturn is the planet of structure, discipline, and tradition; Pisces is the astrological sign associated with intuition, collective flow, and our psychic center. On March 7th, these two energies merged. The yin/yang energy of this Saturn/Pisces dance will wash away limiting structures and inspire individuals and the collective to designate what’s truly important and what needs to go.
Our Aura
Today we discuss Auras—those beautiful energy fields that shift, swirl, and shimmer around you… an iridescent kaleidoscope of energy. Auras surround all living things, changing colors depending on mood, moment, and circumstance.
Playing with Pluto (not the dog)
Brenda Rose, a student of Astrology and teacher of all things Other Side, walks you through Pluto’s Great Shift in March. You’ll learn what to watch out for, how to best prepare and be invited to find your personal power as we unite globally under Pluto’s rule. Because Earth School is hard, but the answers can be found in the Cosmos above, thanks to the miraculous design of the Other Side.
Messages from the Crystal Kingdom

The Power of Palmistry
Today we talk about all things Palmistry, aka palm reading. By “reading” your palms, you can see the unique imprint of your life journey. Inspired by a listener’s question, Brenda and Julie explore this fun and fascinating tool of divination, explaining where the lines are and what they represent.
I, Surrender
Earth School is hard, and letting go can be scary—but after release comes clarity. Join us today as we discuss when to shut down in order to level up and how to choose surrender as an efficient and elegant energetic investment toward what you really want and need.
Are You Embracing or Embarrassed of Your Gifts
How do your psychic gifts show up? Your personal psychic and spiritual evolution can be surprising, alarming, intentional, and ever-unfolding. Today Brenda Rose discusses how you can keep and create a sacred safe space for both yourself and others by applying the wisdom of grace, kindness, and vulnerability in a compassionate, judgment-free way — whether someone confirms your journey…or not.
Tarot Update with Brenda
Today Brenda takes you on a Tarot journey without her Beloved Elf, explaining why it’s her go-to foundational tool for clarity and discernment. Brenda breaks down the process of a Tarot reading: the question she asked, the cards that appeared, their meaning, and the outcome of the reading. The ways to incorporate Tarot into your daily life are limitless…
Reiki
Tune in for a deeper understanding of this extraordinary and impactful practice and the ways and reasons for you to integrate Reiki into your world. Earth School is hard without the healing touch and ever-flowing light of the Other side.
What is Faith?
What’s the difference between faith and trust, and what role does religion play regarding both? Join us today for this empowering and insightful episode. Earth School is hard… without the sacred tools of discernment and gut instincts activated by the Other Side.
’23 & You: Part 2
Today we dive deeper into what 2023 will bring, tapping into the Other Side as our very own Brenda Rose gives us a Tarot Reading for the upcoming year. It’s one thing to know what you’re moving away from, but the fundamental shift is to know what you’re moving toward. So set your target and let’s get going…
Holiday Spirit?
Do you prefer your chestnuts roasting on an open fire, or are you about ready to burn the place down? Today, Julie and Brenda share why this is not the most wonderful time of the year for each of them personally. Earth School is hard—treat yourself to something nice, and never forget the Other Side magic around you, 24/7, needing no reason or season.
’23 & You: Part 1
The urge to look back at 2022 and linger is real, so we say: let it go already. Because the past is just that—it’s done. It happened. Let’s move on…
The Hero’s Journey
Today’s episode is inspired by a listener who asks: “When choices aren’t always black and white, how do you navigate the shades of gray?” Choices aren’t always yes or no—in fact, Earth School often requires you to soften the edges of shoulda, coulda, and woulda by embracing the discomfort that comes with this growth and aligning your choices in accordance with your highest good. From the perspective of Divine order, everything is part of the plan, even when you think you’ve made a mistake.
Moral Dilemmas
Join Julie as she poses a series of questions certain to make you stop and think: What would I do? How would I deal with a challenge like this? It’s choose-your-own-adventure day, presenting ethical and moral right-or-wrong scenarios sure to make you ponder.
Everyday Psychometry
Psychometry is the ability to read an object psychically. Everything in this world emits energy. Therefore, the ability to read the energy of an object is not an obscure talent. With focused intention, you can learn how to develop or strengthen this psychic ability. Today, Brenda explains how to keep your Chakras clean and open, the importance of grounding and stabilizing your energy, and how to call back your energy from the day. These are vital steps toward maintaining and protecting your exquisite psychic body while nurturing your gifts.
Lions & Tigers & Kitties
The Spirit World often speaks through shadows and imagery. You can better understand the transitional messages you receive by speaking to your guides, crafting rituals, meditation, prayer, and journaling your dreams of prophecy. Whether you see the signs or not, symbolic connections with Spirit are here…reminding us all of the magical and vast landscape between Earth School and The Other Side.
Aliens-n-Stuff
Do you believe in aliens? Known for their intelligence yet feared by many, aliens make us question what’s real, who is watching, and why? Today your Other Side Guides talk all things Otherworldly. From the Bayou to the ‘burbs, alien folklore, sightings, myths, and truths fascinate us all. So tune in today as we explore the world beyond Earth School and the Other Side…
Dream a Little Dream
Today we dive into all things dreams: astral travel, lucid dreaming, recurring dreams, and nightmares. As the domain of the symbolic world, the dream-state is also a wonderful, safe space for visitations from the other side, problem-solving earth-bound challenges, and receiving messages from your subconscious mind.
Dancing with Disasters
Listening to your gut is the smartest move you can make. Checking in with your guidance and following through on your instincts is a way to build confidence, experience peace of mind, and honor the spiritual compass you were born with. Earth School is hard, but often the answers are crystal clear.
The Laundry Witch

Do you find yourself struggling with what’s “right” while on your Earth School journey? You are the captain of your energetic ship! Today we’ll teach you how to hold space for what’s right for you. Your path is unique, there is no one answer. It’s essential you find your own true way.
Insider’s Insights
Every heartfelt story leaves you wondering more, and today’s episode begins with a story that makes us ask: can a spirit ever be contained? Earth School is hard, and these physical bodies can be metaphorically heavy, but your spirit and soul can lighten the load with assistance from the Other Side.
Breaking Down Breaking-up
Today we break down the process of breaking up. When a path is cleared before you, it’s an opportunity to rebuild from the ground up. Join us as we discuss: why it’s important to avoid the victim label, how spiritual practices can get you through these periods, and how the Tower card in tarot symbolizes releasing and rebuilding.
The Grief Graduate
When you lose someone you love it’s hard to find your way through the pain of loss. So how do you know when you’re ready to become a grief graduate? The beauty and clarity of the grieving process resides within. Just as Giving is the catalyst for receiving; Grieving is the on-ramp to Living in the Present. Earth School is hard, without the Other Side Guide to Letting Go.
The Urge to Purge: Part 2
Cleansing a space (aka smudging) is performed when you need to clear the energy around your home, your relationships, spirits, habit, cords, and patterns to make room for the new by releasing the old. Your intuition will guide you when it’s time to do either or both. Both practices ask you to consider: what energy supports my vision, and what energy diminishes it? By taking your time, you will feel your way through both practices. Today, we will show you how.
Fix Your Picker
Relationships can teach us more about ourselves than another person, because Love is an inside job. When you understand and accept who you are, you can see and accept others as they are—free of judgement, expectations, resentment, or insecurity. Today Brenda explains how knowledge of the Enneagram and astrology can help you on this journey of self-acceptance and big Love.
The Purge
Today we explore the interconnectedness between physical clutter and emotional baggage. Going through your belongings, whether self-inspired or forced by change, is a powerful way to let go of your past. Yes, you will uncover beloved treasures that you’ll forever keep, and you’ll also have the opportunity to release the stagnant energy that’s holding you back. Today we discuss why keeping the energy around you flowing is essential to your well-being, aligning your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual bodies.
The Stories We Tell Ourselves
Today we discuss the energetic cost of telling ourselves false stories. How this practice, which is deeply human, diminishes our power and prevents us from owning our truth. Self-accountability through the stories we tell allows us to break generational patterns and self-sabotaging habits. Today we ask, are you the victim or the hero of your journey?
Contract Contemplation
In this episode, you’ll learn how to know when you’ve fulfilled a soul contract with awareness, grace, and compassion. Spending time with your emotions and contemplating your contracts is the pathway to freedom here in this life, and the next.
Insider’s Insights: Grief
Dealing with the loss of someone you love deeply is always difficult. Today’s episode springs from several questions submitted by our listener Sue about death after her mother’s recent passing. Moments like these are a delicate time, asking us to remember and honor the many contrasts of life: We cannot have joy without grief, just like we cannot get lost in laughter without first shedding a few tears. There is value to our grieving process if we embrace it and love ourselves through the process.
Insider’s Insights: Family
Today we answer our listeners’ questions around the theme of family.You’ll discover why children can see and feel spirits without even trying, how pre-birth contracts apply to every birthing choice, and why meditation is such a powerful yet gentle tool to help you navigate your family situation. As always, we are forever thankful and inspired by the questions you—our Other Side family—send us. Because Earth School is hard without the loving touch and guidance from our Spirit and Earth-bound family.
Word of the Day: Joy
Many of you live your life in the pursuit of Joy. Yet, you can only experience it after you’ve felt opposing emotions. In fact, Joy is an integral part of living a life of conscious, spiritual flow, and awareness.
The Haunted Theater
Traveling back to your hometown can be full of emotions…joy, dread, curiosity. But for Julie Rieger, a trip back in time to her homeland landed her in the scariest place she’s ever been.

This high-vibe word is not one that’s commonly heard or felt, but when Reverence hits you, it brings you back to your natural state of wonder. It’s those moments when you remember you are part of something so much bigger than your self—overcome with gratitude, grace, and humility.

Hypna-Go-What?
For spirits—both pure and ominent—sleep is a threshold, an opening for communicating with vulnerable souls here on Earth. Sometimes these messages are gentle, sacred, and soothing. Other times, they are wrought with fear. Today we tip-toe in and further explore the world and mystery of sleep—because Earth School is hard, and there must be rest for the weary.
Polishing the Mirror
Seeking answers of guidance that spring from the heart is always part of the transformation process.

A Day in the Life of a Medium
Just like the rest of us, each day for a medium is ripe for unknowns, no matter what we think we know about what it will hold.

Premonition vs. Prediction
What’s the difference between a prediction and a premonition? Both a prediction and a premonition are future-focused, relying on patterns that present themselves to foresee what may happen, yet neither is absolute.
