On-air readings, website update, and more

It's been almost three weeks since I updated this blog, and the time has just flown by. The radio show is going great guns, and we consistently rate in the top 10% of BlogTalk Radio's Spirituality category. THANK YOU to all of you for listening and telling your friends!

On-Air Readings

I've now been asked to appear on several other shows as a guest to talk about my work and give on-air readings. I don't know how other "radio psychics" feel about it, but for me, giving on-air readings is a wonderful combination of terror and sheer glee. The terror part is because it's radio, and millions (or hundreds ... or at least dozens) of people are listening, and you'd better make a quick connection and get it right! The sheer glee part is because I can talk with so many people, really get my message of common-sense spiritual empowerment out there, and get confirmation that I'm actually touching people's lives. Love it!

But as much fun as the on-air readings are, I feel that the heart of my work is the one-on-one private sessions. Although it's fun to get a fast answer on the radio, a private reading allows us the time to examine some of the questions behind the questions, and get you guidance that is more than a quick fix. You also don't have to worry that what you say in a private session will be downloaded onto people's iPods the next day! We have a lot of iTunes subscribers to the radio show, and so a reading on the radio isn't quite as ... confidential ... as a private reading. ;-)

Website Update

I added a couple of pages to the site this week. People had been asking to read what other clients were saying about me. You can find some reviews for me on Yelp!, but I've also added a Testimonials page to the site so you can read even more. I'll update this from time to time. And if you're a happy client, please feel free to email me if you'd like to be included on this page.

Also new to the site is an On the Air page. That's the place to go to find out where I'll be appearing in the next few weeks. And the list is growing, so please check back often for updates!

Coming Up

In the next few weeks on "Out of the Fog," you'll hear guests like women's empowerment coach Megan Walrod, the triumphant return of psychic Trella Davis, and "spiritual fitness" expert Rena Reese.

Check the On the Air page of my site for news about where I'll be popping up next.

I was especially pleased to be invited to appear on Ray Jorden's "Haunted 911" show on Para-X radio (powered by CBS) on June 24th at noon Pacific, 3 pm Eastern. This is the first UK-based show I've been asked to appear on, and it's exciting to think that Fog City Psychic is now officially "international"! ;-)

Summer ... already?


This year is zooming by at the speed of light! Am I the only person experiencing it this way?

My sons are in their last two weeks of school, and they're having mixed emotions about leaving the teachers who've made such a big difference in their lives this year. They're also very excited about spending long summer days NOT being in school! Just between us ... although they're imagining endless days of playing Wii and watching Spongebob, the truth is that I have other plans for them! Sinister plans that involve yardwork, the library, and trips to the beach! ;-)

Summer in San Francisco means cool weather and lots of fog. Although I miss the scorching hot days and humid nights that we had in Michigan when I was growing up, there's something about the cool dampness of a San Francisco summer that suits me fine.

Radio Show News

Tonight (5/26) on "Out of the Fog" I'll be taking your calls and giving free on-air mini-readings! If you're feeling stuck, and want to get an intuitive perspective for your next steps, I hope you'll call in. (646) 929-2947

On next week's show (6/2), my guest will be Anastasia Toom. She helps clients relieve anxiety and stress, and eliminate trapped negative energies and belief patterns ... and she'll be taking your calls! You won't want to miss this show.

Workshop News

The first Intuition Lab workshop, "You Are Psychic!", is this Saturday 5/30 in San Francisco. I still have room for one more student, so if you've been waiting for the right time to register ... this is it! This is a hands-on class for those just beginning their intuitive development. You'll get an overview of psychic boundaries, psychic "hygiene", using common sense to validate received information, and much more!

Last year at this time, I would have laughed my head off if you'd told me that Fog City Psychic would be up and running, with a growing client base, workshops, AND a radio show! Just goes to show you that when you open yourself up to Spirit and go with the flow, you'll be surprised where you end up! Many thanks to all of you for your continued support.

Wow ... make that the top 15%!




Thanks for your support of the radio show! "Out of the Fog"now ranks in the top 15% of Spirituality programming on BlogTalk Radio. We jumped about 10 percentage points with last Tuesday's episode!

Not that ratings are important in themselves, but I love to use them as a measure of how well/effectively the show is getting out the message of positive, compassionate intuitive guidance as a tool for spiritual growth and life change!


Intuition Lab News: Special Pricing

I've extended the early-bird registration discount for May 30th's "You Are Psychic!" workshop. Tuition is just $65 for the afternoon if you sign up by 5/22.

You can get more info here, but basically this is a 3-hour workshop designed for adults who are just beginning to rediscover their intuitive gifts. I believe that everyone ... everyone! ... has intuitive abilities, although we all choose to develop and use our gifts differently.

In the workshop, you'll learn about:

-- using exercises to quiet your mind and open safely to Spirit
-- setting psychic boundaries
-- using common sense to filter and act on received information
-- practicing good "psychic hygiene"

By the end of the class, you'll be able to give and get mini-readings from me and from classmates in a safe, fun, protected environment.

This is the first of what I hope will be more classes and workshops under the Intuition Lab umbrella.

Radio show ratings are in! We're in the top 25%!

I've just learned that "Out of the Fog" is in the top 25% of Spirituality programming on BlogTalk Radio! BTR hosts literally thousands of shows in many categories, and it's a pretty darn big deal that our show is performing so well in our category after only four weekly episodes.

THANK YOU to all of you who are supporting the show by listening live, calling in for readings, spreading the word to your friends, and downloading the free podcast on iTunes (just search on Fog City Psychic)!

On this week's show (5/12), I'll be taking your calls for the entire hour. If you're feeling stuck, or are in transition, this is your chance for a free on-air reading. Next week, the Rev. Trella Davis returns by popular demand!

Intuition Lab Workshop

Just a reminder that this Friday (5/15) is the last day to get the early-bird tuition rate for my upcoming workshop, Intuition Lab: You Are Psychic!

Everyone has intuitive gifts, but very few of us know how to tune into our Higher Guidance to help us move forward with clarity and confidence. This workshop, on Saturday 5/30 from 1-4 pm in San Francisco, is designed for adults who are just beginning their intuitive development. The goal is to learn to explore and experiment with your innate intuitive gifts in a protected, safe environment. We'll do some exercises to quiet the body and mind, so that it's easier to listen to your Higher Guidance. By the end of the afternoon, you'll be able to give and get mini-readings from me and from your classmates.

For more information about the workshop, and to register, click here. And if you have any questions, just shoot me an email.

This week's radio show ... be my guest! (and more)

Just occurred to me that I can post a player here (to the left) to let you folks listen to past episodes of the radio show without searching frantically all over the place for it. You WERE searching for it ... right?

On this week's show (5/5 at 8 pm Pacific), I'll be inviting you to call in to be my guest. I want to talk to people about how they are living with change in their own lives. What got you through a difficult transition and brought you out of a dark time into better days? Do you have any spiritual tools or tips to share with the audience? The call-in number is (646) 929-2947.

And as always, please keep those emails coming! If you have comments, questions, ideas for guests, or anything else you want me to know ... just email me: karen@fogcitypsychic.com.

There's still time to register for my 5/30 workshop in San Francisco. Intuition Lab: You Are Psychic! is a three-hour class that's designed for those of you who are just beginning your psychic development. We'll do some exercises to quiet the mind, and work on listening to your Higher Guidance. The goal of the class is to empower you to explore and experiment with your intuition in a protected setting with like-minded people. I believe that everyone has innate intuitive gifts, and that they are meant to be used to help you move forward with more clarity and confidence.

Is it hot in here, or is it just me?

San Francisco is having a spring heatwave, with temps in the 80s yesterday and today. More of the same tomorrow, apparently. This sudden catapult from cool, foggy spring weather to the middle of summer kind of mirrors how I'm feeling this week. Whoa ... how did I get here? Things are moving faster than I'd planned for!


(This is a photo of my dog's favorite swimming hole, glistening in the heat. No way I'd jump in there, but the dog has different standards!)

Radio show news
Thanks so much to all of you who listened to last week's debut show, and especially to those of you who took the time to write and let me know what you thought of it. I was surprised ... in a happy way ... at how many people heard the show.

If you missed it live, you can catch it in the archives here. I welcome your comments and questions at karen@fogcitypsychic.com.

This week's "Out of the Fog" broadcast (Tuesday 4/21 at 8 pm Pacific) will feature Trella Davis. She is an intuitive, angelic reiki master, tea sommelier ... and so much more. Trella is also one of the funniest people I know, and her lightning-fast wit and strong psychic gifts will make this a show to remember! (Talk about heating things up ...)

For more information about this week's show, and what's on tap for future broadcasts, click here.

That's it for now. I'm ready for a tall glass of iced tea!
