Work has been a whirlwind of excitement in these past few weeks! Not only have I had a chance to really go full speed ahead with some of my passions at work and help our stellar team grow to amazing heights, but I’ve also had the humble opportunity to chat with very cool people I’ve completely admired in the business for years.
I was kind of hesitant to share this because at the end of the day, my work is like anyone else’s. We all go through the same processes, the same struggles, etcetera. But I’ve come a long way and interviews have always, always been my favorite since first starting in this business in 2007—probably because I’m a social person and Mel Robbins, one of my favorite wellness coaches, shared a message about how it was OK to be proud of your accomplishments. It doesn’t make you a narcissist, it doesn’t make you arrogant. None of that. It shows a connection to your goals, purpose and creates self-awareness. So, here I am.
In addition to chatting with a long list of stars in these past few months, I had the really cool chance to chat with Grant Wilson of Ghost Hunters last month, along with his new crew. What a sweet, down-to-earth guy. He was exactly like I imagined him to be and getting the opportunity to talk to him, was just wow. He has such a solid head on his shoulders and talks with so much heart about what the paranormal means to him. It was inspiring. Now, if anyone knows me, they also know that I am a huge fan of the paranormal and have always really believed there’s more to this life than what we know beyond reason. Call it kismet, destiny, coincidence or karma, all of it is paranormal. Anything that you cannot explain. The connections, the chance meetings, the people you come across in life—all of it has meaning and the power to broaden your appreciation for life and those in it.
I have friends who are skeptics and tend to mesh religion with the paranormal, but it can be observed that both are very separate and have nothing to really do with one another. It’s easy to live with eyes closed or have a rose-colored glasses kind of disposition within the comforts of your lifestyle. Yet eventually with that kind of sight, which divulges an underpinned cynicism flagged with rose-colored sight, you don’t realize it, but you’re actually just blind. Blind to experiences, blind to the feelings of others around you and to be honest, that is arrogant. To not believe in things outside our own constitution is a sin to a fulfilled life—just think about it. When you can believe in things outside yourself, you’re more open to others, their lives, their feelings and just able to adjust your moral compass to the shadow side of ethics, a side we rarely consider.
Well, whatever. The subject is one I clearly love a lot, and could talk about for hours upon hours with those who hold a deep appreciation for it. In the meantime, check out my features below with Grant and his team. I am really proud of them, loved putting in extra time on them and am so stoked for the show’s return. Best of all, Ghost Hunters, paranormal investigating and the fall season just go so great together. Don’t they?
