Stephanie Banks - Intuitive Channel

Author: Mind Body Spirit.fm March 9, 2026 Duration: 48:02
In this episode of The Animal Communication Podcast, we welcome intuitive channeler Stephanie Banks for a deeply moving conversation about consciousness, trust, and connection beyond words. Stephanie shares how her channeling journey began through communicating with her mother during dementia — a story that resonates personally with Julie as she navigates her own mom’s Alzheimer’s — and how that experience transformed her understanding of presence, identity, and soul-level communication. We explore the nuances of channeling, heart coherence, environmental stewardship, and what it means to reconnect with the more-than-human world. The episode closes with a special birthday message channeled from Julie’s beloved dog, Lukas, offering a tender reminder of steady trust, joy, and the enduring bond between humans and their animals.
