This is a bit of a departure. My guest is Christine Lang who is a self professed Medical Intuitive. I am a bit cynical on this and invited two previous guests Jenni Roney Aguilar and Dave Frees to help me navigate unknown waters. As a result we had a super interesting show with a lot of topics covered.

Stephen Davis started at a major Hollywood studio. He worked as an intern then a runner, to an assistant engineer until he eventually became an engineer, covering the large spectrum of production.
Then in 2007 he started his own recording studio where he specialized in recording and producing bands and hip hop artists. While getting lost in endless hours of music production, he also found the time to play in bands, compose music, educate others on recording, provide Pro Tools lessons, and attend school for film making.
Now he brings all this experience and talent to the podcasting world where he and his wife Veronica created Pod Sound School to help podcasters learn the craft by providing training in three formats - podcasts, animated videos, and blog posts.
