Manifesting Miracles: This podcast is part of a series of gatherings held bi-monthly on Zoom calls.  Participants from around the world who are interested in making positive changes in their lives: careers, relationships, health, and finances are on this call.  Jan begins this series with the most essential tips for conscious manifestation.  If you want the world to change, if you want your situation to change, you must change within.  You must become an energetic match for the things that you desire. Jan, as a tenured teacher for 30+ years, shares her wisdom on intentional manifestation and shamanism.   Jan teaches, discusses, and answers questions. 

In this deep and heartfelt episode, Jan Engels-Smith and Micah Schwader explore the spiritual paradox of surrender—not as giving up, but as letting go of the illusion that we were ever in control. Through personal stories, Vision Quest experiences, and teachings from the Lakota tradition, they reflect on how spiritual breakthroughs often come not through strength, but through surrender, trust, and deep humility.

Jan shares vivid stories of illness, injury, and discomfort during Vision Quests that pushed her beyond ego and into the hands of Spirit, while Micah reflects on the difference between control and true trust—from financial surrender to the surprising peace that comes when you stop wrestling with the universe. Together, they unpack the semantics and stigma around “surrender,” revealing it instead as a sacred practice of receptivity, presence, and alignment.

This episode invites listeners into an honest inquiry: Do I truly trust Spirit? Can I surrender to the unknown without fear? With humor, depth, and grace, Jan and Micah offer a blueprint for living in flow—even when life doesn’t go according to plan.

“When we finally let go of the need to be in control, the real magic begins.”

Tune in for soul medicine, laughter, and two wonderful storytellers. Trust us—you’ll want to hear this one.

Jan starts this thought-provoking podcast with an Invocation- to clear your mind, connect you to the quantum fields, and create a sacred container for all the participants.

The discussion starts with a participant who uses Jan’s Super Self meditation daily.

      She talks about the huge results she is having. She is feeling wonderful but also feeling light-headed. What should she do not to feel this way?

Here is the link for the meditation https://www.lightsong.net/product/superself-meditation/

Questions from Participants

• Can you focus on multiple things to manifest at once, or do you need to focus on just one thing?

• What does it mean to “Embody” feelings and what does this embodiment do for you?

• What do we do about obstacles that keep presenting in life?  The participant explains that she is trying hard to improve her life but there are many obstacles.  How should she handle these obstacles and why are they happening?

• Are obstacles that present themself as deterrents to your spiritual growth directly related to your beliefs, if so How?  

• What’s the difference between rote repetition of a mantra or prayer and visualization with feeling for the same prayer?

• The topic of Soul Retrieval was discussed in great detail.  When do you do a soul retrieval, Can you perform a soul retrieval for yourself? If so, how often?

• What creates illness in someone’s body from a shamanic perspective?

• Jan talks about her book Becoming Yourself: The Journey from Head to Heart   and
• Through the Rabbit Hole: Explore and Experience the Shamanic Journey and Energy Medicine

Talking Stick Podcast with Jan Engels-Smith & Micah Schwader
Episode Title: “The Pattern Is the Message”

What if the struggles that repeat in your life aren’t accidents—but invitations?

In this powerful episode of the Talking Stick Podcast, Jan Engels-Smith and Micah Schwader explore the sacred and sometimes painful reality of patterns—those recurrences in life, thought, behavior, and circumstance that Spirit uses to get our attention. Through personal stories, shamanic insight, and spiritual inquiry, they illuminate how patterns are not just habits—but are often messages in disguise.

Micah shares a striking experience: a face-first fall during an allergic reaction that eerily mirrored a nearly identical accident two decades ago—at the same kind of life crossroads. Was it coincidence? Or a spiritual “board to the face,” as Jan lovingly puts it? From this moment arises the episode’s central question: What do our repeating patterns reveal about the choices we’ve made—and the ones we’re being called to make now?

Together, they unpack:

·       How emotional, physical, and spiritual patterns act as mirrors of unprocessed truths

·       The role of resistance in keeping us stuck—and how awareness begins to free us

·       Nature’s uncanny ability to speak through omens, animals, numbers, and synchronicities

·       The illusion of having to choose between paths (career or calling, logic or intuition)

·       How embracing our full spectrum—spiritual and practical—creates wholeness

Whether it’s hawks circling overhead, 11:11 on a clock, or repeated emotional loops in your journal, this conversation reminds us patterns point the way. They show us where we’ve been—and where we have the power to grow. The episode closes with a gentle invitation: surrender doesn’t mean giving up; it means opening up to something greater.

Listen in—and ask yourself: What patterns are asking for your attention?

Talking Stick Podcast with Jan Engels-Smith & Micah Schwader
Episode Title: “Dreaming as Power: A Shamanic Approach to the Nighttime Realms”

What if nightmares aren’t omens of doom but invitations to reclaim our soul’s strength? What if that dream you can’t shake is a message from the spirit world asking you to step into your full potential?

In this heart-opening episode of the Talking Stick Podcast, Jan Engels-Smith and Micah Schwader dive deep into the realm of dreams—not through the lens of Western psychology, but from the perspective of shamanic wisdom and spiritual empowerment.

Their dialogue explores how dreams can reveal our hidden power and how our left-brain analytical tendencies often distort the meaning and potential of these right-brain, spirit-driven experiences.

With vivid stories of their shamanic experiences, Jan and Micah illuminate how dreams, daydreams, and imagination are all sacred portals into the quantum field of possibility—and how aligning with this frequency can profoundly shift not just your nights, but your days.

This is more than a conversation about dreams—it’s an invitation to remember your innate magic.

Tune in to discover:

·       The difference between left-brain dream analysis and shamanic interpretation

·       How to re-enter and reshape difficult dreams to reclaim personal power

·       Why “daydreaming” can be more effective than traditional prayer in manifestation

·       The connection between dream frequency and daily life outcomes

·       How imagination is a form of spiritual communication and creative healing

🎧 Listen now, and step into your dreaming power.

“There is an Elephant in the Living Room” How energy workers handle the state of the world in a good way.

During our Manifesting Miracles gathering, a question arose regarding the "Elephant in the Living Room," specifically concerning the pervasive discord in the USA.

• How to stay positive when facing difficult situations. 
•      What are some practical strategies for maintaining a positive outlook in challenging circumstances?
•      Could you please outline the process for manifesting one's dreams and transitioning to a different desired reality?
•       How do we as healers and energy workers perceive our politics and what is happening in the USA?
•       What can any of us do to make a difference in the USA or the world? 
•       There seems to be so much fear, anxiety and distrust. 
•       What can we do about this?

This discussion was the theme throughout this broadcast.

We had a conversation about anti-energy. We touched on how it often intertwines with feelings like disgust, rage, fear, and even hatred toward the object of opposition. We also discussed how anti-energy operates on the same energetic frequency as the very problem it seeks to address and can negatively impact manifestation efforts.

In this episode of the Talking Stick Podcast Manifesting Miracles session, Jan Engels-Smith delves into how shamanic principles can guide you toward a more aligned, joyful life—starting with the energy you hold and express each day. Negative emotions like anger, resentment, and frustration don’t just affect your mood; they lower your overall vibration and prevent you from living in harmony with your true self.

By approaching these emotions as catalysts for growth rather than obstacles, you begin to align with your soul's divine perfection. Your mind’s limiting beliefs and patterns create discord. Shamanic techniques—such as energy work, guided reflection, and intentional writing and speech—can help you reshape these patterns and step closer to your authentic truth.

As we explore the synergy between your wounds and your gifts, Jan Engels-Smith discusses three key metaphysical laws: what you energize multiplies, what dominates your thoughts grows stronger, and what you believe shapes your reality. When negative beliefs enter your chakras, they influence your energetic broadcast. By recognizing and releasing them, you can transform your paradigm and restore a balanced, elevated state of being.

Join us to learn how to harness shamanic insights, shift your inner dialogue, and choose beliefs that uplift and empower you in everyday life.
