·1 hr 2 min·5 clips

Karen Swain reveals why the chaos of 2025 is like renovating a house before you can enjoy the fresh paint.

Karen Swain opens the 'Elevate' show from Australia, celebrating the new year 2026 while acknowledging listeners in 2025. She reflects on 2025 as a challenging year globally, noting its numerological significance as a 'nine' year of disruption and evolution. Swain introduces the theme of navigating 2026's energies, framing it as a 'one' year for new beginnings and seed-planting. She uses a house renovation analogy to explain how disruption precedes creation, urging focus on desired outcomes rather than current chaos. The discussion covers deliberate creation principles, contrasting predictive astrology with personal vibrational control. Swain highlights the 'era of disclosure,' expanding beyond UFOs to include psychic abilities and telepathy, referencing the Telepathy Tapes and figures like Kevin Briggs. She explores generational differences in spiritual sharing, noting how older teachers like Briggs appear on younger 'freshie' podcasts. The conversation delves into philosophical questions about predicting versus creating reality, with Swain sharing a personal mug-dropping anecdote. She addresses listener comments on optimism and choice, citing near-death experiencer Jeffrey Olson's view that choice is the only universal law. Swain critiques the 'light versus dark' battle narrative, advocating for gratitude over conflict. The episode concludes with blessings for 2026, encouraging courage and curiosity in navigating the year's energies.
