***This is part two of our conversation with Summer. If you missed part one, be sure to check out last week’s episode.***

Host April DeMille introduces Own Your Essence podcast, her private psychic medium readings and one-on-one coaching, then welcomes guest Summer, an intuitive teacher, channeler, and author of “Embracing Your Shadow,” a workbook with prompts and mindfulness practices for shadow work. Summer shares daily practices of talking to her guides and a revised grounding method of pulling intuition/energy through the whole essence and into the earth; April relates with her own anchoring approach. Summer names “The Untethered Soul” as a life-changing book and says spirit’s key lesson is trust. Summer explains channeling a collective called Armana through trance or conscious channeling, then channels Armana’s message about Earth’s turbulent planetary awakening creating a blueprint for other civilizations, urging people to stay grounded, calm, and observant rather than reactive. They discuss Pleiadian energy and Summer’s connection to Armana.


Summer is an intuitive teacher, energy healer, author, and spiritual life coach dedicated to helping people reconnect with their inner wisdom and authentic selves. Her journey into this work was born from personal transformation and a deep commitment to spiritual growth.

Through sound healing, trans channeling, and intuitive guidance, Summer helps others align with their highest potential and restore balance to mind, body, and spirit. Drawing on her gifts of clairaudience, clairvoyance, clairsentience, and claircognizance, she shares compassionate insights and messages from spirit guides, departed loved ones, and the soul to support healing, clarity, and personal empowerment.

Today, I just wanted to take a moment to introduce our next get our next guest. Her name is Summer. And she is an intuitive teacher, a channeler, an author, and an author, I'm having problems, and an author passionate about her work and helping others. So listen, she has something very exciting in store for us today. But I do want to talk about your book. Can you hold that up again? Yes, embracing your shadow. And I love this because shadow work is like, oh, that's not fun. Nobody wants to do that. But that's actually like the magic shit pot that you need to stir in order to heal.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, and there's actually like um, there's actually like kind of like there it's there's exercises in here to help you navigate through that shadow work. So this is a workbook too. Kind of sort of, yeah. Like there's some, yeah, there's some triggering questions or actions, you know, like um like prompts you can ask, like facing the shadow with love, like healing your shadow. As your shadow was a person, what would they look like and how would they act? And so it's something you can go back to over and over again um to work with, like creating moments of stillness to hear intuitional, um, gentle signals, you know, and when your mind feels like it's a turbulent ocean, it's nearly impossible to sense the the subtle guidance of intuition. Mindfulness calms the waves, allowing clarity and insight to rise to the surface. And then it tells you how to practice that.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, yeah, I love that. So um, and then the other one you said the other practice was if you're if your shadow was a person, I love that one too.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, okay. Yeah. So yeah. Sounds good. Um, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, beautiful. I love that. So I have a couple just fun questions for you. Um, sure. So this was just uh one spiritual practice that you never skip.

SPEAKER_00

I talk to my guides all the freaking time, man. I mean, yeah, all the time. They are a part of my daily commute. Um, yeah, they're they're just with me all the time. And I would also probably bring in like I have a different perspective on grounding um than I used to. And that recently changed um when I was on a on a cruise, a matter of fact. Um, I was just sitting there thinking about grounding because we hear all the time, you know, pull the white light down through your center core and connect to the earth. Well, I started taking a different perspective on it because the cord never really kind of worked with me, right? And so um so I would try all of these other things to do it, and then all of a sudden I realized only thing we have to do is pull our intuition that sits up here, like the energy of us that sits above us, pull it through all of your essence. You're not only gonna just pull it through down your center of your core, you're gonna pull it down all around you. Yeah, and you're gonna allow this to embrace all of which your energy field sits in. Yeah, so that's you know, that circumferences all of you and pull it in and connect with the earth to be one. And this is all of the purpose to be one with everything, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Well, that's a really good, like anchored, you know.

SPEAKER_00

Yes, and so and that has worked with me. And so now I feel like I'm not reaching up to grab that intuition and living, you know, like floating up above. Now that intuition is sitting fully within me all the time.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

So your approach for it.

SPEAKER_01

Your approach is very similar to mine, except for mine. I don't call it intuition. I sit, I just go, okay, I just need to anchor all of me into me, like all of it. Yeah, just into me. So you call it intuition. I just say I need all of all of me into me, right? Like, yeah, I'm not trying to escape this, I'm not trying to float off anywhere. I just need me right here in the present, and that's very grounding. And I still definitely like walk outside barefoot. That grounds me so so quickly. Um, so things like that. But yeah, I love your approach because it sounds very similar to mine.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, nice, nice. Yeah, and that's just like I mean, because like bringing the light in and anchoring, like yeah, but I was still very floaty, still very, you know, up in, you know, and so and just bringing that up end down into all, you know, and I basically just I don't even it's more of a feeling now, it's more like I feel it more, yeah. When I pull it all the way down, right, versus how I did it.

SPEAKER_01

Well, because I think it put I think it anchors you in the present moment instead of like overthinking and all the things that are happening everywhere else. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I like that approach. Um, okay, a book that you've read that has changed your life.

SPEAKER_00

Untethered soul.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, I'm writing that down. Who wrote that?

SPEAKER_00

Um, I don't remember. Okay, that's fine.

SPEAKER_01

I'm gonna write it down. Uh I'm still writing it down. Okay, and then a favorite lesson spirit has taught you, like one of your top favorite lessons. Or maybe even when you're learning now.

SPEAKER_00

I mean, um, the lesson would be to trust.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. That's such like a that's such a powerful place to be.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. And so, you know, and I think I flowed in and out of that lesson. Like, you know, there's moments where I have it and I do well. Yeah. And then life goes on, and then I forget it, and then I struggle with it, and then I have to learn to trust again. Like, you know, just because we're in the spiritual space and we're connected and we're doing the work doesn't mean that it's easy for us. And so we still have to.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, sorry, I was gonna say I'm going through a health situation that's really shaking my trust.

SPEAKER_00

So yeah, so you know, trust and um, and that's big because it hits in so many different aspects, right? Yeah. I mean, trust sounds like a very simple word and a simple action, but uh, it's not sometimes. Especially when you've grown up around, especially when you brought up around people that you couldn't trust.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, and that taught you to abandon yourself over and over to make them happy.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, it's really hard. That's like probably one of the hardest things in the world to learn.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, so I would say trust.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Yeah, that's a good one. Okay, so you guys, we have something special because Summer um also, you know, uh, she's a I'm gonna call it a cosmic uh a channel for cosmic wisdom. So uh she does some really fun stuff with her herself as a channel. So can you talk a little bit about Armana? Because I definitely have questions about that, and then maybe if you're comfortable, we can spend some time in in your channel with Armana.

SPEAKER_00

Um, so Armana is a um an um is a group of collective. Um, they're not just from one source, they're from many different sources. Okay um many of them are part of our star seeds, um, are connected to star seeds.

SPEAKER_01

Um so there's galactic nature.

SPEAKER_00

There's gala, yes, there definitely is. Um they um I I started channeling them um in the past, I want to say like in the past year and a half, they started coming through. Okay. I'm hearing two years, but it doesn't feel like it's been two years. Okay. But um, so again, I want to argue with that, but you know, they probably know better than I do. Yeah. And then um they feel very um, I mean, I don't know, like uh they're pretty wise. Um I don't know. Um I mean they're there. I when I first started channeling them, I would basically um pull up my laptop and open up the video and just record. Okay, and then sit here and do the channel because um it was so very new. Yeah, and I didn't even realize what their name was until I did another podcast and the interviewer asked them their name. Oh, okay. And so I was like, oh, well, I'm gonna have to watch your podcast so I know their name because I don't know their name. I'm terrible.

SPEAKER_01

I've never asked names, I don't so that's just funny that you talked about that because like I I have a friend that does a lot of channeling and working with galactic guides, and and she and many other friends actually have asked me, what are the names? What are what are details? And I'm like, oh fucking know, I don't care. Like I never stop to actually, I'm like you, I never stop to ask details because I don't give a shit. And also, it doesn't matter. What matters is the book of the message, not who I don't really care who it's coming from. Um, I already trust the source, so I don't need to question it. And also, um, I feel like for me specifically, and this might you might be able to find this relatable, is like the moment my ego starts asking questions, it actually shuts down the experience. And I'm like pretty much okay. Well, that was stupid. Like, see that just kind of like so. I just go, I don't, I don't actually give a shit. Like, you know, I think a lot of people do that, and maybe in the beginning we even need to do that to learn to trust ourselves, but I'm not in a place where I care at all.

SPEAKER_00

I'm just like, I've never, I've never asked the name of anything that I've connected with, unless the person sitting across me wants to know.

SPEAKER_01

I was gonna say, unless your sitter needs something specific, like if you're doing mediumship or there's a family member that that's different, but that's sitter-based, right? But like when I'm doing stuff just for myself, I never give two shits about that. Like, I'm like, whatever. I think it's more of like what I feel, because I can feel their energy. So that means more of a me so you already trust the source, yeah. You already know who you're talking to because you've already established that that bond and that that in that in that dynamic, you already know that it's a safe source. So like you're not gonna be like, oh, okay. Well, like we don't have to do that at certain places, I think, in our development.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

So that's that's awesome. Okay.

SPEAKER_00

That and I'm terrible with names too, anyway.

SPEAKER_01

So well, I just I really still think there's just like this. Um I've also talked to another medium actually very recently, and she's a lot like you and I. She's she does not care. She's like, I don't need names, I don't need, you know, whatever. Like, she was like, sure, like I might, you know, find out some of those some of that information automatically downloads in us, and some of it we just don't need. It doesn't matter.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I'm gonna feel them more than anything. So if there's a sitter across from me, I'm gonna feel that energy. So I'm gonna describe what they feel like.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Right. Unless they're giving me like sometimes they'll give me like what they look like, you know. So I may see like big curly hair, like, you know, big burly guy, but um, usually usually I'm describing more what they feel like or what their personality feels like, their energy feels like. That's usually what comes across more, evidently for me.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Okay. So when you're channeling, you said you used to record, you know, especially in the beginning.

SPEAKER_00

I do still every now and then.

SPEAKER_01

So can I ask you a question? When you channel, does your human remember everything or not? Like, do you stop out of the way? It depends.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, okay. It it depends. So there's I do a trans channel and do a conscious channel. Um, so it depends. And usually um, what I've noticed is that um at the beginning, I'll remember what's taking place at the beginning, but the longer the channel goes, the further away I get from it. Okay. I think it's because of the beginning, I'm still very much connected to what's happening. Yeah. Right. And so the further the longer the channel goes, the further, the less I'm gonna like acknowledge or know.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Um, I definitely like I so I've I've been in a trance to do channel, and I've also just done conscious channeling. But regardless of what I do, I remember all of it. And I think that's wild. Like I just go, how do I so that's why I'm like, how do I I don't understand that? Like I've never really wrapped my mind. That is a still a question for me, myself in my own journey. Because I've I've experienced a lot of different channels, and uh most almost everybody like forgets. And I'm like, or does it or is it like fully aware, right? Like in that moment, because they're being the channel. And I'm like, what the fuck happened to me then? Because I still know what's happening. Like it's just wild. So um, so I think it's strange, but uh, but everybody works differently, so yeah, yeah. So and yeah, it could just be that I'm not moving completely over because I still want a certain level of comfort and control. I don't know.

SPEAKER_00

Maybe that's something you agree to. Well, I'll do this as long as I can remember what's being said, right?

SPEAKER_01

And that that feels right because like maybe I because I do have plans of uh sharing my experiences in books and stuff, so it could be that I needed to be able to retain a lot of this stuff.

SPEAKER_00

So yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

So that makes sense. Um that feels right. Um, so when we take a moment to uh, you know, meet Armana. Um, is there is are you going to be channeling collective messages? Is there something are there questions or prompts that I that I need to help with? Like how does that work best for you?

SPEAKER_00

So um they'll come in and say whatever, but it they prefer to have a two-way conversation. Okay. You know, so definitely have a conversation with them. They'll come in and they'll say whatever they have to say at first, but you're more than welcome to ask questions at any time during the experience.

SPEAKER_01

Okay. I don't have a list of questions, like I haven't even thought to like uh so whatever happens will happen, I guess. Uh and if I end up just being like blank, I'll just okay. Uh so we'll see what happens. Okay. Um, okay. So do you need like uh like a ready set go? Like what do you just need a few minutes to let your human sit with that?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, just give me a minute.

SPEAKER_01

Okay. Yeah, I'm so excited. We get to meet Armada. Woo!

SPEAKER_00

We are pleased to be here with you today. We know that many of you are hi. We know that many of you are very curious about what your meaning of life is and what this is all headed to. We also understand that your planet is in a lot of turmoil, was we'll say. It's going through a lot of changes. The changes that are going on in your world today are we will say, expansive to all, all that exists and all that is. Know that your awakening is is so key. It is key to many other universes and many other planets because you are the ones that are going to help the awakening of others that exist outside of your knowing of existence. You, Earth, has been how can we say this to where you can understand? Earth is going through this huge transformation, and Mother Earth has definitely agreed to be the host for this magical but very challenging events that are taking place. The egos are breaking down, the egos are realizing that they have no place here, and they are fighting that with every tooth and nail that they have. But what is happening here is expansive or ripple effect that goes out to many universes across of what exists. And that you are all a true blessing to what is to happen across all of this expansiveness. Your reality is being somewhat tested because what has to happen here also has to happen in other places. And for this to happen, we say what you would understand as successful is going to be key on how other planets, other lives, other creations will be able to learn so that their awakening can be a little smoother per se. So this is kind of like the rough draft of what a a planet awakening is to look like. So they know more of like what not to do versus what to do. Your planet was created not necessarily your planet was not created by humans. I think you know that. Um, what you're experiencing today, believe it or not. Like what you're experiencing today is because of what was created here from the beginning. And you're starting to open up to it, you're starting to awakening to it, and you're starting to push back. And that pushing back is absolutely what you should be doing because you are teaching those who are closed off, those who are, you know, unwanted to wake up, those who are fighting. What has to come, you are teaching them the way to be. And the more they fight, the harder it's gonna get. But those who are awake and those who are in the light, we say to you maintain your belief, maintain your knowing. And uh escape into your meditation or your channeling or whatever it is that keeps you uh calm, that keeps you grounded, and that keeps you from reacting to what's going on around you. You can definitely give them the love and the nurturing and the energy to heal from that, but most importantly, keep you in that love energy, keep you grounded, keep your calmness and continue to practice being the observer of what's going on versus an active participant in what's going on, because these battles, the ego battle, is going to continue for quite some time. But the more that you can separate and be an observant of that and be a healer for the earth and for those who occupy the earth, that's what is needed. That's where that magic is going to become. And the more they can get into that space to do that, then the faster and the more smoothly this planetary awakening that will take place.

SPEAKER_01

Thank you for that message. That is a beautiful message. Um, if you you know, I thought I'd have questions. Um, I really uh was excited to have some you know dialogue back and forth, but honestly, I uh I I don't have questions. I think that message was pretty perfect.

SPEAKER_00

We are blessed to be here and we are honored to be able to share a knowledge of a knowing of what is to understand what you're going through and realizing how important it is for this planet Earth to go through this transformation because you are teaching not only yourselves, but you are teaching others that are observing and watching, and because you're creating such a magnificent existence that can carry on through other universes, through other planetary existences across all that is. We can't just say universe because there's not just one. You see, you have your nice little planetary system here, and we, as you know, there are many other planetary systems, many other small universes, but it's all encompassing, it's all of which of existence, and the existence goes on and on and on. And what you're experiencing here is just a teeny tiny part of that, but it's a very important part of that because you're creating the pathway for others to learn from. You all decided to come here to go through this challenge, to go through this awakening, to create a blueprint, a step forward for others, so they know how to do this, and so they know how to do this in a way that's more encumbersome, a way that is allows for that freedom of that awakening expression to come true. So your challenges, your friction across all of this is extremely important. And know that there is a purpose, and that purpose is greater than anything that we can understand, but it is a true divine purpose that is going to not only benefit everyone that's within this within this planetary system, but but all across all that exist. It is a playbook to be written in what we would say the history of all creation.

SPEAKER_01

Thank you again for your message and summer. I really appreciate you being uh able to uh we think thank you. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

It does. I'm always surprised to be um I'm always surprised to be in um a space. Like just yeah, like it feels weird. It's like I'm around hard surfaces, I have light, like it feels weird.

SPEAKER_01

You're like, oh damn, I'm back. You're like, dang.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, it takes me a minute.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, it's um when I've gone through like even hypnosis or trans sessions, it takes me a minute to like recalibrate on my ooh.

SPEAKER_00

Well, I will say it does happen faster now than it used to used to. It would take me like 30 minutes to be able to be feel back normal. So now it only takes a couple of minutes, but yeah, very beautiful message, by the way.

SPEAKER_01

Um, Armana has a feel, like there was a feeling that came with Armana that's very different than your feeling. So that's that's usually how I know that I'm definitely online with someone else, right?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Um, and so there's a feel uh there's a different feel for Armana. Also, I I wanted to ask you, I got a lot of Pleiadian uh energy out of that experience. Uh and I felt like your your actual main your main speaker was Pleiadian specifically. Okay, so I didn't know if that was information you could validate or not, but I was like, oh, this feels very it it didn't feel all Pleiadian, I'll say that. But like I want to say that like your main, like your main uh your main vocal, I think, like your your uh maybe I would say like the spokesperson. Yeah, I'm gonna say that that person specifically was I was like this is a Pleiadian person.

SPEAKER_00

So very interesting. So I did a um a life between lives hypnosis um a couple months ago, I think it was. And one of the things I wanted to do is I wanted to meet like I wanted to meet them right in that hypnosis because I only like channeled them. So I wanted to meet them. And only thing I saw was um it's very weird life between lies, because you don't see people like you do in a regular hypnosis. Like you only thing I saw was like figures, right? Right. And so only thing I saw was like a like a group of white figures, like in a circle, you know. And um I did get a sense that they were very much, they were it was very heavy palladium, but also get a sense that there was some um some other flavors mixed in there as well. Like I don't know how do you say that, right? Like other starseed um natives in there, like some different other galactics, yeah. Yeah, other and so um I did get a sense of that, but very interesting, and I can't believe I'm saying this because I feel like I'm I feel like I'm talking crazy talk right now. So no way, just letting y'all know, like crazy talk's normal, but it still feels crazy. So I had a friend um when I was younger, I had this um friend. Um we had like an instant connection when we met. We dated for a while, but um we always kind of remained connected. And then when he was 16, he committed suicide. Um, and I saw him probably about like a week before he did that, you know, um, and he committed suicide. But after he passed, um I felt myself, my emotions towards him growing stronger and stronger over the years. And it was just, and when I actually did my first past life hypnosis, I wanted to know why do I feel that I love this one person more than anybody ever in walking life? And they passed away when I was, you know, 18, and I'm like 30 something now, you know. So, and come to find out is that he is actually a part of the armana.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, okay, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, that makes sense. But he's not the one that I speak through, right? But he's kind of like he's just on the committee, yes, yeah. It's very interesting. And and I was and I was just kind of like, yeah, it was just very inner, and I'm still trying to wrap my head around that.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, no, that makes sense.

SPEAKER_00

It's the reality of it all. So yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Well, Armana has a beautiful vibe, no doubt about it. And also, nice. Um, I don't uh if you don't remember uh everything and you might not, I thought I was gonna be fun and asked some questions, and then I was like, Okay, I have no questions to ask. Like I was sitting here thinking, I had like at least one or two questions that I was like, this seems like a good question. And then by the time Armada got to a stopping point, I was like, I feel like she actually just answered that question without me even anyway. So like I feel like the questions were already answered uh in the message. So I was like, okay, I guess I don't have any questions then. Like how was that? Nice, yeah, so okay, it worked out. Yeah, it worked out. So um, so yeah, that's perfect. Um, so summer, I think you've been fabulous to sit with.

SPEAKER_00

And I think you I think is this has been so fun.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, no, and I think it's really great that you were able to share Armano with us. That's a beautiful gift uh that the world needs more of. Um it's definitely a wisdom uh that needs to be spread like wildfire, wildfire, right? Like which yeah, which is the point, right? So yeah, so you're definitely doing your job, and I love that. So thank you for doing that for everybody. Oh, you're welcome. Oh, it's a pleasure. Yeah, welcome. So you guys, if you guys um if you guys want to work with summer, summer, where is the fastest place that somebody can find you if they want to work with you?

SPEAKER_00

Um that's also um just be, but it's just dash be dash true.com. Um I'm I'm on there as well, but Facebook is usually where most of my um stuff is, and I also have a podcast.
