Podcast of Another Reality Show

Host Golden Hawk interviews Patricia Walker on the following topics:

Wandering into a bar in Mexico with her husband, Pat Walker is hoping to enjoy a rock concert by a famous singer previously unknown to her—but something frightening and wonderful happens instead. In the midst of the cheering fans and screaming guitars, she is lifted out of her body and becomes engulfed in a white light and a feeling of ecstasy. She stumbles upon her soul, and God. Soon after this experience, more strange things begin to happen to her—she starts having psychic revelations, glimpses of past lives, and contact with angels and spirits. Fearing the loss of her sanity, Pat’s search for an explanation leads her to international recording star Sammy Hagar (lead singer of Chickenfoot and former lead singer of Van Halen), who takes it upon himself to help her decipher the meaning of these supernatural experiences. In this true story, Pat struggles to maintain her roles of middle-class wife and mom, while simultaneously being thrust into the explosive world of celebrities, sex, and rock ‘n’ roll combined with spiritual dimensions beyond her wildest dreams. All of this forces her to confront the incredible power of her mind and spirit, and to reevaluate her perception of reality and the meaning of life. To learn more go to http://www.bajarockpat.net/

Relief Efforts for Cabo Victims of Hurricane Odile

“My book would not exist at all if it weren’t for Cabo and the people of Cabo, because that’s where the story all began,” says Patricia Walker, author of DANCE OF THE ELECTRIC HUMMINGBIRD.

 

There really hasn’t been much media attention to what happened down in Cabo recently. In fact, most people I talk to haven’t even heard about it. Hurricane Odile made a devastatingly direct hit in Cabo San Lucas, San Jose del Cabo, Todos Santos, La Paz and neighboring towns in Mexico on September 14, 2014.

It affected people I know personally, and as of this writing, many still do not have electricity or water, nor can they return to their homes to determine if their homes are still standing.  The airport was severely damaged and remains closed, but according to local sources, it will be opening soon.

When most of us think of Cabo San Lucas, it brings to mind the breath-taking, world-renowned arch or El Arco, extraordinary fishing, fancy hotels, vacations, beaches, sun and margaritas. And while those images do describe Cabo, it’s also true that there are some very poor people who live there. I have personally witnessed people living in cardboard shacks without plumbing.

Rich, poor or in-between, many lost everything they had. The wealthy can afford to rebuild, but I couldn’t just sit back and not do something to help the rest of these amazing people.

IMG_0136I have a bunch of books in my office right now, books I’ve purchased personally from my publisher, (yes, I have to buy my own books) so I’m donating the money from the sale of them to the people of Cabo, but my offer only applies to books purchased here, through my website because I have no control over Amazon.com or other outlets. In selling these books, it gives me the means to donate much more money than I could afford to donate on my own.

If you buy a book from my website, you’ll have to pay for shipping, but 100% of what you pay for the book will go to the people of Cabo. I will post which charity it’s going to so you’ll know exactly where your donations are going.

And, if nothing else, if I can help raise awareness of the devastation done to Baja California del Sur, perhaps more people will schedule their vacations there. The locals are working tirelessly to rebuild, and our vacation dollars are exactly what these people need right now to help them get back on their feet.

Land’s End

Cabo will soon be back and better than ever, I have no doubt.

So please, even if you don’t feel moved to buy a book, please just do what you can. It all helps. (Obviously, it’s important to do your research before donating to any charity.)

And come experience the beauty and magic of Cabo San Lucas for yourself. Pictures don’t do it justice.

Thank you for your kind generosity.Dance of the Electric Hummingbird

Podcast of “Positive Perspectives” with Melinda Carver

According to talk show host Melinda Carver, at first, her listeners wondered how a spiritual awakening could take place during a rock concert. And who would blame them? I thought the same thing, even as it was happening to me! Hopefully all their questions were answered during our interview. Melinda was an outstanding host, asking questions such as, “How did you balance being a wife and mom with having such extraordinary experiences?” and “What was it like to be singing onstage with a famous rock star?” She also inquired about how I compared my journey to that of Paulo Coelho’s award-winning book, “The Alchemist.”

Melinda and I further discussed the role music and sound played in what happened to me, the implications of what experiences like mine could mean for others, and how my book has effected many of my readers. It was a great interview. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Thank you, Melinda!

Come One, Come All…

Rachel Love Show Podcast

I had a super great time chatting with Rachel Love on a2zen.fm yesterday about my book “Dance of the Electric Hummingbird,” what I learned from my experiences and about Sammy Hagar.

Although I always visit the host’s website to learn about him or her before I go on the air, one of the most difficult things about being interviewed is that you never really know what to expect. What are the host’s beliefs? Did s/he read my book? Plus, you have to be prepared for anything–you never know what they’re going to ask, and you want to come across as intelligent and interesting.

Rachel was a delight; she has a wonderful sense of humor and had me laughing most of the time. However, there was a moment about half-way through the show where we became disconnected. I had headphones on and was nowhere near my phone, so how this happened, I have no idea. All I know is that since I’ve become a bit more comfortable with things that aren’t always explainable, perhaps the energy between Rachel and me was just so great that it overloaded the airwaves because this has never happened to me before! So please excuse the dead-air space until I was able to call her back and resume the interview.

In case you missed the show, you can listen here:

Thanks again, Rachel! I enjoyed talking with you. It was like chatting with a dear friend.

And thank you to all of you who tuned in. You are the greatest!
