When Pamela Southwell was two-and-a-half years old, she asked a question in her mind, and heard a voice in her head that answered her question. It was the first time she heard this man’s voice. The same voice helped her out again when she was four years old and spoke to her at various times throughout her childhood. It wasn’t until she was fourteen years old while she was using an Ouija board with her friends, that she found out who this voice was. The pointer spelled out the name of her great-grandfather. But how could that be? He had passed away before she was even born. As she grew older, other strange experiences started happening: her dreams were coming true, she could astral travel, she could talk to living and dead pets as well as people in the spiritual realm. For many years, Pamela denied her psychic abilities. She hid them away for fear that others might think she was a freak while she also worried that she may have a mental illness. Decades later, she finally found some friends who supported her, and books to guide her and answer her questions about all things beyond our three-dimensional reality. After developing her gifts further, she began giving psychic readings to clients—connecting with their loved ones or pets in spirit or foretelling their futures. These interactions affirmed her abilities, yet she still doubted herself. She was still reluctant to accept that she had these skills… However, one night a message came from spirit with a confirmation so solid that she could no longer doubt her abilities. In Super Freak: Lessons from a Reluctant Psychic, Pamela not only shares personal, adventurous stories and advice about being a psychic but also provides a safe space for others like her to embrace their authentic selves and know they are not alone. Follow her on her path, as she navigates all things intuitive by recommending books and movies, offering the reader an opportunity to delve deeper into these topics and suggesting exercises to practice their own extra-sensory skills.
