Ep 6 - Imaginary Friends or Spirit Guides? A Parent’s Guide On What To Do
Description
Are imaginary friends really just imagination… or is something deeper happening? In this episode of Let’s Get Wyrd, Betsy and Dave explore one of the most fascinating (and sometimes unsettling) topics for parents: children and their imaginary friends. But here’s the twist… What if they’re not imaginary at all? Betsy breaks down why children, especially between the ages of 0–6, are naturally more open, intuitive, and connected to spiritual realms, and why dismissing their experiences can actually shut down their intuition early in life. This conversation dives into: * Why kids’ experiences feel 100% real to them (because they are) * The difference between imagination, intuition, and spiritual connection * Why telling kids “it’s just in your head” can be harmful * How past lives may show up through children’s stories and play * What to do if your child sees something scary * The truth about spirits, ancestors, and “protective” energies * Why fear is often learned—not natural * How to nurture your child’s intuition without forcing beliefs Betsy also shares powerful personal experiences from childhood, including vivid dreams, spiritual encounters, and what it felt like to be dismissed—and how that can impact a child’s sense of reality. If you’re a parent, this episode will shift the way you look at your child’s imagination forever. And if you’ve ever had experiences as a child that you couldn’t explain… this might bring some clarity.
