Have you ever experienced something unexplainable — and been told to stop looking? In this episode of The 108 Effect, Tina and Laura welcome Dawn, a gifted intuitive and longtime member of their inner circle, for a raw and honest conversation about what it’s like to grow up seeing, feeling, and knowing things others simply can’t.
Dawn opens up about childhood encounters with spirits, an ET visit at age 10, and the decades it took to stop suppressing gifts her own family refused to acknowledge. Tina shares one of her most personal stories — a visitation dream that foretold her father’s death and how trusting that knowing may have saved him precious time. Together, the three explore what it means to finally stop silencing yourself.
