Ever notice how energy isn’t just a buzzword—it’s everything? An invisible thread tying us to each other, to nature, to something far beyond what we can see. That’s why, when people say what I do is “special,” I shrug. Not because it isn’t meaningful, but because it isn’t mine alone. We’re all wired for this.
Humans just have the hardest time remembering.
We’re born wide open—soul-first, full of wonder. Then we arrive here and have a lot to learn: how to walk, talk, eat, get dressed, and manage the chaos of having a body. Somewhere along the way, we forget what we once knew instinctively—that we’re deeply connected to something larger.
For some of us, the world feels overwhelming early on, so we go inward. Not out of weakness, but survival. Like seeds buried in soil, the darkness teaches us how to grow roots. Those who go inward often uncover truths others might miss.
Some of us remember even more. I don’t just mean past lives (we’ll get there another time). I mean the womb. I remember watching my parents sing and dance to a song from the 1930s years before I was born—then surprising them at age three by singing that very song they hadn’t heard since.
More curious than the memory were the questions:
Why did I remember it?
Why did my so-called imaginary friend know things that later came true?
Why did these connections come so naturally to me?
I still ask those questions. They’ve never left.
In the 1970s, I had a mentor named
Alec Rubin, founder of
Theatre Within and the
Center of Feelings and Creativity (
read about him here). He wasn’t just a therapist—he was a mirror and a guide.
After a
Rolfing session (
curious what that is? here’s a link), I curled into a fetal position. I wasn’t thinking—it was pure sensation. Later, I called my mother and asked, “When you were giving birth to me, was there some kind of wall I hit and flew out from? Is there a bone in the birth canal?”
There was a long silence.
Then she said, “How do you know that? I never told anyone. I had a bone over my cervix. You broke it. Your sister came out with a broken collarbone. You flew out so fast the doctor barely caught you. It was so rare it was written up in a medical text.”
I told her I didn’t know how I knew. That was easier than explaining what I’d experienced.
Moments like that taught me something essential: we know more than we think we do—not just about ourselves, but about our soul’s history. This life, the ones before, and sometimes even what we carry from those who came before us.
It’s all there. In the roots.
That’s why I wrote Soul Detective—to help people like you remember. Not the way I do, necessarily, but to trust your inner world as a source of insight rather than confusion. The book offers 42 creative techniques and exercises designed to reconnect you with the inner wisdom you were born with.
Because yes—you were born with an all-access pass to your soul.
A Question for You, Raiders of the Inner Realms
What’s something you knew before anyone ever told you?
A dream. A gut feeling. An unexplainable memory. A quiet knowing you couldn’t shake.
Those breadcrumbs are your map back to wholeness.
Trust the Inner Thread
Life may be stranger than fiction—but that’s only because fiction has an editor.
Life doesn’t.
It moves through energy, memory, instinct, and soul. And when you begin listening again—not to the noise, but to your own quiet knowing—you may realize something surprising:
You’ve been connected all along.
You didn’t lose the thread.
You just learned how to survive without pulling on it.
That subtle knowing you’ve dismissed.
The memory you couldn’t explain.
The feeling that arrived before the proof.
Those aren’t distractions. They’re invitations.
If there’s one thing to take with you, let it be this: you don’t need permission to trust what you sense. Your inner world isn’t random—it’s responsive. Remembering doesn’t require effort. It begins the moment you stop doubting what you already know.
With warmth and curiosity,
Nancy
