Hayward</strong></p>\n<p>From radio waves to spirit waves… Barb has been tuning in long before Wi-Fi was a thing.<br />Real life. Real spirit. No fluff… and a little laughter.</p>\n<p>Welcome to <em>Stories from the Soul</em> — a spiritual podcast sharing real psychic experiences, honest spiritual encounters, and insight from a lifelong clairvoyant medium working with soul and energy.</p>\n<p>What really happens when you don’t just learn spirituality… but live it, every single day, for over 43 years?</p>\n<p>Some people wonder if the psychic world is real…<br />Barb has spent a lifetime in conversation with it — and yes, sometimes it answers back with better timing than most people.</p>\n<p>And no… you don’t need to wear crystals on your forehead to understand it.</p>\n<p>Hosted by Barbara D. Hayward, a clairvoyant medium who has worked across New Zealand and Australia, this podcast shares powerful stories from years of psychic readings, guidance, and connection with spirit.</p>\n<p>Barb brings more than experience — she brings a life immersed in this work. She hosted her own radio show for three years as a clairvoyant, speaking with over 35,000 listeners and answering thousands of real questions… sharing grounded spiritual insight in a way that felt real, honest… and occasionally made people laugh when they weren’t expecting to.</p>\n<p>She is also the author of <em>Letters from Grandma: The Life and Memoirs of a Medium Clairvoyant</em>, and at times you’ll hear her read directly from its pages — stories, reflections, and moments that carry the kind of wisdom that tends to arrive exactly when you need it… not always when you asked for it.</p>\n<p>And every now and then… Barb opens a quieter door.</p>\n<p>These are the stories she calls <strong>“For My Eyes Only”</strong> — deeply personal, sacred experiences gifted to her over the years. They are not shared to teach or explain… only to be honoured.</p>\n<p>Inside each episode, you’ll hear:</p>\n<p>• Real psychic experiences that changed everything<br />• Spiritual awakening, intuition, energy, and manifestation woven through everyday life<br />• Practical spiritual insights you can actually use (no chanting required… unless you want to)<br />• Stories that make you feel, reflect, and sometimes laugh at how life actually works<br />• The unexpected humour and wisdom of the spirit world<br />• Honest conversations about the soul’s journey and what it really means to live a spiritual life</p>\n<p>Barb is known for her direct, down-to-earth approach. She meets life head-on, speaks truthfully, and brings spirituality into a space that feels accessible, relatable, and real — whether you’re new to the psychic world or already deep into your own spiritual awakening.</p>\n<p>She works closely with her guides and helpers — “her people” — who, as it turns out, have a sense of humour of their own.</p>\n<p>If you’ve ever felt something you couldn’t explain… you’re probably not as “off track” as you think.</p>\n<p>This isn’t learned spirituality.<br />This is lived experience.</p>\n<p>Because what if life is speaking to you…<br />more than you realise?</p>\n<p>Come and listen.</p>\n<p>If you’re here… you’re already tuned in.</p>","icons":[{"src":"https://deow9bq0xqvbj.cloudfront.net/image-logo/22206822/Barbara_Podcast_Logo_1_63716_300x300.png","sizes":"300x300","type":"image/png"}]}
