What if ancestral healing didn’t require years of research, detailed family trees, or even knowing your lineage by name? In this deeply moving episode, Lisa invites regression therapist and author Shelley Kaehr to offer something rare and powerful: a guided experiential journey listeners can do for themselves, in real time.

Shelley leads a gentle visualization designed to create a safe, loving space for connecting with ancestors, offering healing, and releasing inherited burdens—whether those ancestors are known, unknown, or long forgotten. The practice emphasizes awareness, compassion, and blessing rather than reliving trauma, allowing healing to ripple both backward and forward through the lineage.

In this episode, you’ll experience:

* A guided ancestral journey you can return to anytime on your own

* A simple way to connect with ancestors even without genealogical records

* How blessing and witnessing can release long-held ancestral pain

* Why awareness alone can initiate profound energetic shifts

* A lived example of spontaneous ancestral connection and release

The episode closes with a powerful real-time reflection, as Lisa shares her own unexpected encounter with an ancestor who had never been documented—yet whose pain was still waiting to be witnessed. It’s a reminder that healing doesn’t always come through facts and records, but through presence, compassion, and the willingness to listen.

This is an episode to return to—again and again—whenever you want to feel held, supported, and quietly accompanied by those who came before you.

Why do certain fears, emotional reactions, or even physical symptoms show up in our lives without a clear personal origin? In Part 2 of this thought-provoking conversation, Lisa explores that question with regression therapist and author Shelley Kaehr, diving into the fascinating intersection between past lives and ancestral lineage.

Together, they unpack how emotional patterns and trauma can be carried forward through DNA and energy fields, sometimes snowballing over generations until they surface in the present moment. Shelley explains how genealogical regression works alongside past-life regression, and why working with ancestors—rather than strangers from another lifetime—can be uniquely powerful and deeply moving.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

* How ancestral trauma and emotional responses can be inherited and amplified over generations

* Why genealogical regression often feels more immediate and emotional than past-life work

* A striking case study linking family caregiving roles, migraines, and soul-level clarity

* Why people sometimes become ill when visiting ancestral homelands—and how awareness can help

* How soul contracts, family challenges, and “button-pushers” play a role in spiritual growth

This conversation invites a broader perspective: that we are not just healing ourselves, but participating in a much larger story. By bringing awareness to both past lives and ancestral lineage, we step into the role of conscious participants—capable of transforming inherited patterns and creating ripples of healing that extend far beyond our own lives.

What if the challenges you’re facing didn’t begin with you—or even with a past life—but much further up your family tree? In Part 1 of this conversation from the Ancestral Healing Summit, hypnotherapist Shelley Kaehr shares how genealogical regression emerged organically from years of past-life work and why it can be one of the most powerful healing tools available today.

Drawing from her book Heal Your Ancestors, Shelley explains how unresolved trauma, loss, and hardship carried by ancestors can echo through generations—and how bringing light, compassion, and awareness to those source events can create profound shifts in the present.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

* How genealogical regression differs from traditional past-life regression

* Why many personal struggles trace back to ancestral, not individual, experiences

* What kinds of emotional, physical, and spiritual healing can emerge from this work

* How imagination, guided imagery, and intuition open the door to ancestral insight

* Why healing the past can ripple forward through time—transforming families across generations

This is a grounded, expansive exploration of ancestral healing that bridges psychology, spirituality, and lived experience—offering a powerful reframe for anyone seeking deeper understanding and lasting change.
