    Not a bad podcast at all but what’s with all the “unalived” type TikTok speak? Stop it. It’s dehumanizing.

How to Spot Signs From the Other Side with Barbra Banner
Q: Has Barbra ever encountered a reading where she couldn't help, and what happened?
Yes. In a particularly skeptical case, the client rejected the information, and Barbra refunded the session; later the client's father-in-law presented a concrete, verifiable sign that validated Barbra's approach and helped the client reconnect with the idea of communication from the other side.
How to Spot Signs From the Other Side with Barbra Banner
Q: What are some of the signs people often miss from their loved ones, and why do they miss them?
Signs can be subtle and crowded by grief; often, loved ones try to communicate through symbols like butterflies, coins with meaningful dates, or songs, but the living may overlook them due to intense mourning or skepticism. Barbra stresses keeping an open energy and checking for consistency and personal significance in the signs.
