What if ancestral healing didn’t require years of research, detailed family trees, or even knowing your lineage by name? In this deeply moving episode, Lisa invites regression therapist and author Shelley Kaehr to offer something rare and powerful: a guided experiential journey listeners can do for themselves, in real time.Shelley leads a gentle visualization designed to create a safe, loving space for connecting with ancestors, offering healing, and releasing inherited burdens—whether those ancestors are known, unknown, or long forgotten. The practice emphasizes awareness, compassion, and blessing rather than reliving trauma, allowing healing to ripple both backward and forward through the lineage.In this episode, you’ll experience:* A guided ancestral journey you can return to anytime on your own* A simple way to connect with ancestors even without genealogical records* How blessing and witnessing can release long-held ancestral pain* Why awareness alone can initiate profound energetic shifts* A lived example of spontaneous ancestral connection and releaseThe episode closes with a powerful real-time reflection, as Lisa shares her own unexpected encounter with an ancestor who had never been documented—yet whose pain was still waiting to be witnessed. It’s a reminder that healing doesn’t always come through facts and records, but through presence, compassion, and the willingness to listen.This is an episode to return to—again and again—whenever you want to feel held, supported, and quietly accompanied by those who came before you.Visit Shelley’s author page on Amazon here.Check out Shelley’s course at The Shift Network here.Lisa Bonnice is an award-winning author, podcaster, and former stand-up comic whose work blends humor, heart, and spiritual depth.

Why do certain fears, emotional reactions, or even physical symptoms show up in our lives without a clear personal origin? In Part 2 of this thought-provoking conversation, Lisa explores that question with regression therapist and author Shelley Kaehr, diving into the fascinating intersection between past lives and ancestral lineage.Together, they unpack how emotional patterns and trauma can be carried forward through DNA and energy fields, sometimes snowballing over generations until they surface in the present moment. Shelley explains how genealogical regression works alongside past-life regression, and why working with ancestors—rather than strangers from another lifetime—can be uniquely powerful and deeply moving.In this episode, you’ll discover:* How ancestral trauma and emotional responses can be inherited and amplified over generations* Why genealogical regression often feels more immediate and emotional than past-life work* A striking case study linking family caregiving roles, migraines, and soul-level clarity* Why people sometimes become ill when visiting ancestral homelands—and how awareness can help* How soul contracts, family challenges, and “button-pushers” play a role in spiritual growthThis conversation invites a broader perspective: that we are not just healing ourselves, but participating in a much larger story. By bringing awareness to both past lives and ancestral lineage, we step into the role of conscious participants—capable of transforming inherited patterns and creating ripples of healing that extend far beyond our own lives.Visit Shelley’s author page on Amazon here.Check out Shelley’s course at The Shift Network here.Lisa Bonnice is an award-winning author, podcaster, and former stand-up comic whose work blends humor, heart, and spiritual depth.

What if the challenges you’re facing didn’t begin with you—or even with a past life—but much further up your family tree? In Part 1 of this conversation from the Ancestral Healing Summit, hypnotherapist Shelley Kaehr shares how genealogical regression emerged organically from years of past-life work and why it can be one of the most powerful healing tools available today.Drawing from her book Heal Your Ancestors, Shelley explains how unresolved trauma, loss, and hardship carried by ancestors can echo through generations—and how bringing light, compassion, and awareness to those source events can create profound shifts in the present.In this episode, you’ll learn:* How genealogical regression differs from traditional past-life regression* Why many personal struggles trace back to ancestral, not individual, experiences* What kinds of emotional, physical, and spiritual healing can emerge from this work* How imagination, guided imagery, and intuition open the door to ancestral insight* Why healing the past can ripple forward through time—transforming families across generationsThis is a grounded, expansive exploration of ancestral healing that bridges psychology, spirituality, and lived experience—offering a powerful reframe for anyone seeking deeper understanding and lasting change.Visit Shelley’s author page on Amazon here.Check out Shelley’s course at The Shift Network here.Lisa Bonnice is an award-winning author, podcaster, and former stand-up comic whose work blends humor, heart, and spiritual depth.

In this episode, shamanic teacher Evelyn Rysdyk explores what it means to treat our ancestors not as distant history, but as living presences woven into our daily lives. Drawing on Indigenous traditions, oral cultures, and her own lineage, Evelyn invites listeners to create a physical and spiritual “home” for their ancestors—through altars, remembrance, story, and intentional relationship—reviving a practice long forgotten in Western culture.Through vivid examples ranging from Ulchi spirit houses to Australian Aboriginal songlines, Evelyn illustrates how ancestral knowledge was preserved with astonishing accuracy for thousands of years, not through books or technology, but through story, memory, and lived transmission. She reminds us that elders once served as libraries, carrying hard-won wisdom about survival, love, loss, healing, and how to live well—and that this wisdom is still available to us.In this episode, you’ll explore:* How and why to create a dedicated space for your ancestors in your home* The role of oral storytelling in preserving knowledge across millennia* Why ancestors hold practical wisdom for modern life, not just history* How dreams and shamanic journeying can restore ancestral connection* A moving personal story of recovering lost ancestral herbal knowledgeThe episode closes with a powerful reminder: our ancestors lived through unimaginable challenges and still carried the wisdom, courage, and love necessary to bring us here. By turning toward them—through remembrance, intention, and story—we open ourselves to a vast reservoir of guidance that can help us become the best of who we are, now and for generations to come.Visit Evelyn’s website at spiritpassages.comLisa Bonnice is an award-winning author, podcaster, and former stand-up comic whose work blends humor, heart, and spiritual depth.

In this episode, shamanic teacher and author Evelyn Rysdyk leads listeners through a deeply embodied guided journey into their own DNA, revealing ancestral wisdom as a living, accessible resource rather than a distant past. Through breath, gratitude, and vivid inner imagery, Evelyn invites us beyond the thinking mind and into direct experience—stepping through a mirror, into a cell, and along the crystalline spiral of our genetic lineage to meet an ancestor offering guidance uniquely meant for this moment in our lives.You’ll experience:* A guided shamanic journey into the cellular and ancestral field* How gratitude and the body open pathways to ancestral support* A direct encounter with a loving ancestor offering timely guidance* Why ancestral healing is about present-day strength, not just history* A grounded, repeatable way to access lineage wisdom anytimeThe journey closes with a gentle return to ordinary awareness—carrying a felt sense of belonging, support, and continuity. As Evelyn reminds us, we are not separate or self-made, but formed by thousands of generations of love… and sometimes the deepest truths arrive with a smile.Visit Evelyn’s website at spiritpassages.comLisa Bonnice is an award-winning author, podcaster, and former stand-up comic whose work blends humor, heart, and spiritual depth.

In this compassionate, eye-opening episode, Lisa and shamanic teacher Evelyn Rysdyk explore one of the most common — and often unspoken — barriers to ancestral healing: What if you don’t know your ancestors… or you do, and you want nothing to do with them?Evelyn offers a powerful reframe: your lineage is far bigger than the handful of relatives who may have caused harm. The ancestral field contains thousands of supportive beings — and you can choose who you work with.Together they explore:* Why you can safely “skip” harmful generations and connect only with loving, well ancestors* How to call in a spirit mother or spirit father from your wider lineage when your real parents failed you* How these ancestral beings can repair the wounds of a childhood that lacked nurture, protection, or belonging* Why not knowing your biological family doesn’t block you from receiving lineage support — the ancestors can still find you* How trauma, estrangement, and displacement create a tear in the fabric of identity — and the rituals that help reweave it* The surprising emotional legitimacy that emerges when you connect with the “bigger family” watching over youThis conversation is especially healing for adoptees, children of abusive households, and anyone who carries a complicated relationship with their family tree. It gently reminds us: You may not know them, but they know you. And some of them have been waiting to step forward.Visit Evelyn’s website at spiritpassages.comLisa Bonnice is an award-winning author, podcaster, and former stand-up comic whose work blends humor, heart, and spiritual depth.
