Kim Russo – The Happy Medium

Kim Russo is one of the most well-known and sought-after psychic mediums in the world. 

I recently had the pleasure of speaking with Kim, and I can see why she’s called “The Happy Medium”. 

Kim was an absolute delight to talk to, and her charismatic personality and captivating stories had me fan-girling throughout the entire interview.

I have been following Kim for years, and always in awe of her remarkable ability to communicate with spirits, is truly amazing. She’s like a reporter, relaying messages from the spirit world.

Kim has appeared in several TV shows such as “Paranormal State”, “Psychic Kids”, and “Celebrity Ghost Stories”. Her popularity led to her own series, “The Haunting Of…”, which became the #1 series on LMN. Following this, Kim starred in another series called “Psychic Intervention”. 

Her ability to help counsel them with the help of the other side helped bring closure and face what has been haunting these distraught individuals was hugely popular, due to her success, A&E has decided to bring back her series, “Celebrity Ghost Stories”, with Kim Russo as the show’s psychic medium and host. 

Kim is also an author of two bestselling books “The Happy Medium” and “Your Soul Purpose”, which I highly recommend to anyone seeking spiritual growth and aspiring psychic mediums.

Kim is a mother of three sons and has been married to her husband, Anthony, for 33 years. She believes that implementing and sharing our God-given gifts with the world is the most important aspect of our soul’s purpose.

GM: Welcome, Kim Russo! Thank you so much for doing this interview with Ghosted Magazine. Your ability to connect with loved ones started at an early age, when was the first time you did your first reading?

Kim Russo: That there’s a blurred line right there because, I had a couple of quite a few experimental sessions where I wasn’t even believing this was real, so I was kind of experimenting with friends. My first one of the things that kicked it off for me, I would say. To show me this really was happening I was on a bowling league, and I was with a friend of mine who had just lost her father-in-law, and I knew her. We grew up together in one of my old neighborhoods, but I don’t really know much about her in-laws. You know, we lost touch, but then we all the girls came back together, and we joined this bowling league, and she knew that I had these gifts I was dabbling with, and she threw her watch at me and said. Tell me what you get. Just tell me what you feel when you hold this watch. And it was. Late we finished bowling. It was almost midnight. Believe it or not, I was game, you know and had nothing to lose. As I was holding her watch, I started to hear a man’s voice. I saw a man in my vision, and he told me that he kept saying something about his lever, his lever, and she was hysterically laughing. And she said, yeah, uh, I know what that means. I said you do. She said he died of his liver. And she said he had a very heavy Italian accent. That’s how he would say liver is lever.  So, I laughed and I thought I wasn’t buying it.  I’m very skeptical. And then I heard a woman’s name, and I said the name to her, and she said, well, that’s his wife. And I continued to say so many things that were accurate about this man. And his death and his life. That she was just flipping out. And I don’t know if I believed her. I thought maybe she was just trying to humor me, well the next morning she called me up and she said, do you even know what happened last night? I said, yeah, I’m kind of still thinking about it, she said. Well, I’m here with my brother and he lost a very good friend of his. Do you think you could try to do the same thing you did last night? I said, gee, I’ll try, I don’t know. It was really trial and error. She put me to the test and with this brother of hers, his friend came through from the other side.  The first vision he gave me was I thought he was a mechanic because I saw him investigating something under the hood of a car. And her brother laughed and thought it was the funniest thing and I needed to be let in on to the joke.  He said well, he was a professional car thief. What? Yeah, he said, he used to be. That’s how he used to jumpstart the cars to steal them. I was just floored. I couldn’t believe it and then I had to think about it. Wow. Well, this guy who stole cars. Is he in a good place or a bad place? And why am I able to hear him? The rest is such history and I’ve trial and error and learning by on-the-job training.  Honestly, it was trial and error. This is how they taught me their language. I just hadn’t stopped since then and she pushed me and she was bringing all her friends to me. I was just as curious as they were. And it really there’s so much more in between that I did write about in my book, but that was the first catalyst reading was with this woman, Michelle. I wrote about it too. She was my childhood friend. I’m still in touch with her today. She loves what I do, and she could do it too, but she chooses not to. 

GM: I believe we all have the ability to communicate with spirits, but it’s up to us to what extent we develop it. You, however, have taken your communication with spirits to a whole new level by engaging in a Q&A with them.

Kim Russo:  Well, they can do it. They don’t know they can do it, and that’s what I teach my students. Again, this was trial and error. If somebody would ask me a question I would say, well, I don’t know, let me ask, I’ll see if I get an answer.  I found that aside from, you know, getting to receive the Lotto numbers from these spirits.

GM:  I think we’ve all tried that.

Kim Russo:  For gambling, it doesn’t work. This is what I’ve learned. If the answer they give or the guidance they give does not interfere with someone’s path or free will. They are allowed to shed light on a situation. I’ll give you an example. Sometimes they also can see the future on the other side because the future is not linear, it just plays out linear or our timeline, so they can see forward based on your choices and your personality and based on your past choices. So, they’ll talk about an opportunity coming. They don’t always know if you should take the opportunity or not. They’re not. They shouldn’t advise you. They would only advise you as the same in the same context. They would advise you when they were alive, taking advice from a friend from a mom. Does it mean it’s the right answer? It’s their answer from their perspective.

GM:   It’s like being asked “Why didn’t you know I was going to have a car accident?”

Kim Russo:  That comes up too, and it’s like, wow, you, there are certain things that you need to experience. If you knew all the answers, you wouldn’t be going through it as the test. So yeah, sometimes they literally say to me, “I’m not at liberty to talk about that” or I’ll just say they’re not telling me, so I respect that. That’s their answer. They’re not able or privy to that information.  Sometimes they’re not even privy to the information because, again, it can’t interfere with a person’s soul contract.

GM:  You also have the gift of psychometry. When did you discover you could do this and is it similar to reading someone’s energy?

Kim Russo:  I did not know I could do it until a watch was given to me, so I found this was just me. Looking back now. I compare it to learning how to ride a bike and that was psychometry to me, it was like having training wheels. Or it’s a tool that you’re given just like tarot or any kind. You know, any kind of dousing tools. It’s a tool that. The sitter thinks that’s where you’re receiving the information. All it really is a distraction. To literally tune into the energy.  So, I do teach psychometry as part of my curriculum. Not because it helps them enhance their abilities. It shows them what they can do, but then the training wheels come off quickly. And I tell them, just get behind the wheel and go straight for the energy. The pure energy, not the not needing the tool.

GM:  I recently finished reading your book and I absolutely loved it! It was filled with so much valuable information for practicing mediums. I was wondering if you received any formal training from other mediums before turning professional.  Also, what advice would you give to aspiring mediums who are interested in pursuing this profession?

Kim Russo:  OK, well I did take in total, 12 classes with this woman who wasn’t particularly teaching mediumship. She was teaching the fundamentals, the protections, all the modalities, but continuously in these twelve classes that I took, she would tell me that I would be a well-known medium and that I will be helping people and that was my sole mission. I did not believe her. I didn’t know any of this. I was raised very Catholic, and very Christian, and I didn’t really know about this world that she was teaching about. It was, after all the 12 classes were over that my gift started really skyrocketing and I used the tools that she had given us. She had given us a list of books to read to give us insight into what she was teaching.  So, it really was up to us to do our own. Homework and she was there really to just give us the foundation. The big thing with her was protection, which I’m so grateful that I had as lessons because it’s such a key component to what we do, and any upcoming mediums that think that it’s a polar trick or there’s no harm in it, they’re very wrong. They’re very wrong, and that’s what’s happening right now. They’re not trained or qualified and they’re charging top, top dollar.  Well, it is ego and that’s why I’m working on my next book regarding the dangers and the ethics of mediumship.

That’s the first thing on the questionnaire that I give my students; Is I would like to know why you want to be a medium. What is the reason behind it? That’s number one.  So, the ego is the biggest blockage for developing mediums. It’s a huge blockage.  I have seen some incredible developing mediums that are so afraid of getting the information wrong and they continuously try to use their logic in a reading and something that doesn’t seem to make sense to them they tend to hold it back.  Because they think that I don’t know where this fits in this piece of information. So, what my biggest piece of information would be to leave the ego at the door and deliver the mail. Don’t try to read it just deliver it like a mailman would do. An interpreter does not go in there for the death and put their own spin on the message they just deliver it as they’re hearing it so trust and have faith. If you’re getting flooded with any type of information such as clairvoyance, having a vision, clear hearing, information, or even clear sensing and feeling the information you need to pay attention to that.  Something is happening outside of yourself. Information is coming in from someplace, and you need to see what that message is. And I think that’s a key sign that the information is not coming from you when suddenly you are the receiver of a message. Say it as if somebody was in the other room and you’re in the room with someone they want you to relay a message to the guy in the next room. And you’re screaming it at them, and they come back and they’re like, what did you say? And you’re just the middleman. So, it’s you just delivering a message.  One word could mean everything to the sitter.   It could be the symbol they were hoping you would say, and then I found this out early in my learning process. My ego got in the way too. It’s human nature. We all do it. How many times have I wanted to kick myself when after the reading was over and spirit was showing this to me on purpose. Because nine times out of ten they would say, Gee, I was hoping you would show me his boat, let’s just say. And the whole reading I was seeing a boat, but I didn’t. I didn’t know where to put it. I. Didn’t know what. It meant so I was waiting for more information to come up. And they would always tell me at the end, what they were hoping for, and I was receiving it, but I didn’t say anything but now you wanna just kick yourself?

GM:  Besides ego getting in the way do you think it is a lack of confidence and the reader doubting themselves?

Kim Russo:  Yes, it’s a doubt, that’s the ego right there it’s not about you and it’s not about me. So, when you can just learn to be the messenger and just deliver the message, that’s when you will be a very proficient medium.

GM:  The Q&A that you have with spirit is amazing.  I think that is what sets you apart from other mediums.  You’re like a reporter for the spirit world.

Kim Russo:  Well, before I was really doing mediumship, my spirit guides gave me a nickname, they would call me curious Tim.  Inquiring minds want to know. So, you know, Geminis make great journalists and I do. Yes, I’m a I’m a I’m a spiritual journalist. And again, I even say that to people in the living realm, when they’re not sure about something and I’m like, well, did you look into it?  Well, no. Well, you didn’t research it. No. Well, everything’s there if you want to learn about it. You know, some people are just lazy, too. I’m pretty disciplined teacher, and I expect my students to be disciplined. If you really want to learn you have to be serious about it.  I look at this as a mission. I do see this as my sole purpose, and I do feel that there are so many hints in the Bible that refer to the gifts that we all possess. You know, Jesus said this you shall do, and more greater gifts do you have than I?

I went to Catholic school up until second grade. And I definitely learned about all of the things that I never bought into as a child. Mommy, why do I have to go to confession? Why can’t I tell Jesus my sins directly?  She didn’t have the answers for me, she said. Oh, you know you’re too young and because you know, you that’s his job or whatever, just never sat well with me. And then you will find yourself going into the confessional booth and making up lies about your sins. Now that’s two sins.

The link to God or the connection directly like we don’t need this middleman. Even mediums I don’t think you need. That’s why I like to teach it to people if you would just sit and listen this is also a phrase that I feel spirit wants me to coin and use, everybody is a medium in the moment, at least at one point in your life.

So, we just need we just need to take the time to listen. We’re a society that wants to be spoon-fed everything. We don’t want to take a minute. Everything is on a fast track and we even we even we just want the answers from other people and we’re always looking outside of ourselves. For advice or guidance, when all we really need is to get inside of ourselves, that’s another big message I like to import to people that are trying to tap into because I don’t really. I’m not fond of labels. I don’t even like to say psychic or medium.  If I had to really pick a phrase, I would like to say I have been deprogrammed. From the matrix.

 

GM:  You can be considered as a reporter for the deceased.

Kim Russo:  Yeah, I have that on my website that I’m. A spiritual journalist. But also think about it we were born with these gifts until we’re indoctrinated by our parents, by schools, and everything that everyone else was taught in between how many parents say to their children to go back to bed.  Ghosts are not real. Yes, mistake. Number one, man. That’s the first thing you can tell your child. And my parents never said that to me, so I’m very blessed about that. They didn’t. Discourage me. About knowing what I saw. 

GM:  That is very important to teach our children not to be afraid.

Kim Russo:  I now know they probably humored me by checking under my bed and in my closet, but they never told me that it was my imagination, or it wasn’t real, so that helped me a lot.

GM:  I recently finished reading “The Happy Medium” and was pleasantly surprised to learn about your background in hypnotherapy and past life regressions. I was always fascinated by past life regressions after reading  “Many Lives, Many Masters”.

Kim Russo:  Well, so that’s what one of the books that we were talking about earlier, Many Lives, Many Masters that was on the roster of books that that medium psychic medium gave us when I took her twelve classes. And that was. The book that I found the most intriguing, I always loved science, and when I read this prominent psychiatrist story again, I said wow, I want to try that. I want to try that and that’s what I did. I went to the library, and I took out a book on how to hypnotize someone. And my best test subject was my husband.  I said to him do you want to do it?  He was cool, but then he trusts me implicitly.  Unbeknownst to me, it was he went under hypnosis right away. Into so many different lives.  There was one where he drowned, and I didn’t. I didn’t know how to bring him out of it. So, I was like looking, you know, going through the pages really quickly and I learned. We’ve been doing this for quite a few years with my husband he’s what’s called the symbolist, which is someone who can be hypnotized immediately, like, you know that you see those people on stage and a hypnotist pulls their arm and says sleep. Well, I’ve seen that happen on stage with a hypnotist, with my husband. He is very hypnotizable.  Only a small percentage of people can do that.  He was a real catalyst, not even knowing or planning to be. He just was, and I learned so much doing this. He doesn’t remember any of it. Of course, there’s quite a few sessions that I’ve taped so that he can get to hear it if it creeps him out. There were a couple of things under hypnosis he gave me as predictions such that when Obama was running he didn’t tell me the man of color would be but that’s it’s not Anthony speaking.  It’s the spirit guides coming through him. So, there are choice of words that I find interesting that he doesn’t speak that way. Man of color will be our next president. You know, I believe I might have that somewhere on tape because I never wanted to so many nights it would happen.  While we were just hanging out Anthony would always fall asleep before me. And he always talks in his sleep, and I started to just answer him back.  After I tried this initially I learned that I could also get him into these places and find people on the other side to come and speak to me. I know that it was these people because there were things that would relate to me that only these people knew. There was nothing harmful that they told me because you know, I do believe you have to be careful of fake entities or lower level ones, I don’t know if I want to call them demons, but, you know, trickster, trickster.

GM:   I believe that there exist various levels of lower energies as well.

Kim Russo:  They do exist.  I would always like to ask questions just to try to see where they’re coming from, and I always liked the answers I got. I always felt that there was no harm in their messages. Which is a good sign. They never told me what to do what tried to guide me or lead me to do something that wasn’t comfortable.

GM:  It is always a falsehood when lower energies speak to you.

Kim Russo: Yeah, you got to watch that.  Nobody really should impose their will on you, not even a medium, especially when you go to see these readers, even a psychologist or a therapist. They’re not really supposed to tell you what to do or what they think you should do in a life situation. You have to find these answers within yourself because what might be good for them, might not be good for you.  So that’s also part of my book where you have to learn what to look for with an authentic reading. You’re taking someone’s life into your own hands and their mental health. And it’s a huge mission and it can cost someone their life if you give them wrong information.

GM: I love that you’re doing this. This was so needed for the spiritual community for these people taking psychic & mediumship classes.   Now it seems everyone is teaching a class that might not be qualified.  Have you ever turned away a reading because of the mental stability of someone wanting a reading?

Kim Russo:  Yes, I have.  I’ve seen people who want the quick drive-through reading like just tell me what I need to know. I don’t enjoy the people who contact me for manipulative reasons. They don’t anymore. Spirit took care of this. Want to know if their husband’s cheating on them.  And I don’t want to be a part of the gossip. If it comes to someone’s child they might be in danger, I absolutely might look at that situation. Takes a village as we know. I use my discernment and it’s always it always should be, for the highest good of all, concerning the messages I give. I can tell someone who just wants information for manipulative reasons. I won’t touch it with a 10-foot pole.   I had that in the beginning, and I definitely said spirit, this is not why I’m doing this work and please do not send these types of people to me. Because, you know, my husband makes my appointments and at the time. 

GM:  My husband and I work together too. We both watch you on TV and he always says you got to ask questions like Kim!

Kim Russo:  That’s awesome. He sounds he sounds very cool.

GM:  He’s such a great guy. He makes rosary beads for people who are sick.

Kim Russo: That is beautiful. Well, I also feel that he’s been ordained to help you with your mission. So as my husband was, we cannot do this without the backbone and the support of a strong family unit.

GM:  Family is everything.  Especially in this type of business.  To keep you grounded.

Kim Russo: It’s very, very important to stay grounded.  If it weren’t for my husband, I would probably spend half my time in the spirit world being an air sign that I am right.

GM:  What do you think is the most important thing for mediums to do in order to enhance their abilities?

Kim Russo:  So, this works for me, so I can, and I believe that. There has to be a dialogue to begin. People just sometimes sit and wait until they hear voices.  It does not really always work that way because I see the medium as the receiver, the antenna we are the antenna, right? So, we are definitely open to receiving the different signals that are out into the universe. But of course, there are certain signals we may not want to have come into our field. The first thing that I recommend is doing a grounding prayer and a protection prayer. Again, there are so many on the Internet I have one in my book, a couple I wrote in the books that I wrote, and the protection is #1 which is that your intention must always be for the highest good, not for your good or for their good, for the highest good, because even with your own children. It’s painful to watch them go through things, but you know that will come out a better person after it’s all over. The lesson has to remain intact. But I don’t do any type of rituals, in the beginning, I did. I would light my candle and the flame was giving the message that I was ready to receive my messages. I have learned as I’ve gone, that’s not really necessary. It’s just a ritual. Again, it’s a training wheel-type thing, so all you really have to learn how to do is shift your listening skills. Now your listening skills do not always come in clear audience. They can come in through visions or feelings, and it’s no different than when you daydream or imagine and remember the past.  So, when you remember being at Disney World when you were 10 years old, you’re using all of those same senses to visualize. Feel the feelings. It’s sort of all the same. So, when you are trying to listen to an outside message or be a receiver. You have to be quiet and still, do not have anyone anything on in the background. I don’t even recommend having music on because it’s a distraction.

It distracts you.  It’s you being alone with you and training your mind to filter out all of the intrusive thoughts. What am I making for dinner? My kids are getting off the bus soon. Just make sure that when you do your quiet time. It’s not around any other appointments that you have or places you need to be. And chores can wait. So, it’s a real self-discipline and alone time.  To me, is meditation. Don’t get intimidated by Oh, I have to be in the Yoga position, and I have to raise my vibration to the highest level. That is absolutely not true.  You could be in the shower.  Water is a conductor of energy.  So yeah, the pool, the shower, the bath, just washing dishes, having your hands running into some water. Water is also a very good grounding and conductor of energy. So, are good listening skills. You have to learn how you receive your information.  Some people say, oh gee Kim, I’m not a visual person.  When you walked us through that meditation, the guided meditation, I was having a hard time seeing the trees or the ocean. So, some people’s clairvoyance, they’re clear seeing is not yet developed. But you absolutely can develop it as you go. It’s a muscle. It’s your third eye. So, try to pay attention.

GM:  I try to be that passive observer, but it’s difficult in that moment.

Kim Russo: Yeah, because most mediums are compassionate and open-hearted people, that’s another thing. If you have a closed heart and you closed your heart off to love. Maybe because you were hurt in a relationship or you were abused as a child, or you just don’t trust people. I find that you will have an easy time as someone who surrenders control tries to keep an open mind and is easy to forgive others. That’s something everyone needs to work on. That’s not easy. You know, we live in a fight-or-flight society. We always feel like the boogeyman is out to get us. You know, if we turn on the news everything in our in our surroundings tells us we are not safe. You have to find your safety, your Ground Zero. You have to find your safe spot and your connection to a higher being whoever that might be.  If you were raised as an atheist, and just weren’t taught to believe in any higher being. You can find your own.  Sometimes we don’t even know who our guides are and there are some people are really shocked to know Archangel Michael is one of their guides or Jesus or Mary or there could be so many different spirit guides. Not everyone is like Joan Of Arc, you know people have that misconception as well. It could be a random person named Cecilia; you know. So my biggest advice would be, whatever filters into your mind and your heart, or your feelings. Trust that.  Keep a journal in the.  In the beginning at least.  Write down everything you’re seeing, hearing and feeling during your quiet time when you are intentionally trying to make contact with the higher realms. Always ask for the information that is for the highest good. For example, if there is something that no one has any control to change. I recommend you do not ask to know about it. If it’s something you can avoid or can give a warning about. Then there’s no reason why you shouldn’t receive that information because again, that can help someone, right? If I say to you, don’t touch that stove. It’s for your own good and it’s for the right reasons. So, warnings can filter through. Also, it’s all in the delivery of the message. It’s how someone chooses to look at the message. I had a woman come to me whose mother had a brain tumor. She didn’t know it but her mother was getting repeated headaches and in the reading, her deceased father came through. He said get mom to a doctor immediately and I felt the pain in my head and she said. Wow, she said. I’ve had my mom see a neurologist because she has these headaches. They will be doing an MRI in two weeks, and her dead father said no. Get her there now, she doesn’t have two weeks. Now you can look at that as a fear-mongering reading. First of all, I thought, wow, what If I’m wrong?  This is pretty big like I was even an observer saying. How sure am I about this information? I wasn’t, but I trusted it as I taught it. I taught myself to trust the information. I later found out through an e-mail. That that reading saved her mother’s life, I couldn’t believe she listened to me. I will admit, if I were the sitter I don’t think I would have rushed my mother to get that checked. I would have waited. That’s just how I am. This woman did not wait. She took her mother right away and the doctor said.  What is this about?  She said, I don’t have time to explain what a psychic medium told me. And if my mother dies, this is on your conscience. The doctor said, OK, OK, we’ll get her in today. We’ll get her in. They rushed the mother to surgery immediately. She had this aneurysm that was about to burst.  I always highlight that reading because again, as I was the observer, I was the deliverer of the message.

So, when you receive messages that seem negative. It’s up to you to trust that everything is trial and error. Once you trust the information and you deliver it, you will always get the validation you’re hoping to get. Don’t ask Spirit to give you the validation.

GM:  Have you ever had a reading and when they leave and say to yourself you know what? That wasn’t that good. I don’t think they liked the reading.  Because some people don’t show expression, then the next day you get 10 people booking appointments because that very person gave such rave reviews to their friends.

Kim Russo:  I know. And then those are the ones that give me the best reviews.   They’re not emotional and I learned also the different parts of the country where they’re taught to be very reserved and it’s really hard to tell if they’re understanding what I’m saying.  So, I am always asking spirit.  I want to learn what I could do better. I don’t think that person understood my message or resonated with my message. Invariably, 90% of the time I would get the person calling back, wanting to reboot the reading and I’m like, wow, they didn’t like the reading but want another or they would refer their friends and say, well, OK, they like their reading you know, that’s how I would get my validation, or I’d get an e-mail.

GM:  It is a wonderful way to get validation. You need validation as a human. To know that you’re on the right track. I feel like I just want to know, am I doing the right thing for people?

Kim Russo:  Right. But that’s also how you learn your symbolism. When Spirit was teaching me their language. I’ll never forget it would come in increments of breast cancer for one whole week. Everyone coming to me either had breast cancer or knew someone who had breast cancer and I was receiving the same symbolism over and over and that is how I knew. Oh, that’s my symbol for breast cancer. That’s what I need when I see that. Uh, heart attacks. All that week, we’re heart attack people, so I’m like, wait, how could the spirit arrange that through my husband or my calendar where I had availability?  I also find in the big groups that I do spirits sit people together in sections that have similar experiences. Yes,

They’ll say no, no, no, no, I’ll say ok, let me tell you what I’m hearing. Well, let me tell you what I’m seeing. And then they’re like, oh yes, yes, yes. That’s right. I understand that. So sometimes your frame of reference database you just have to tell them what it is and then they’ll understand it. Sometimes the sitter has to solve the mystery of the message. And that’s and if that’s OK you don’t, that’s a huge misconception that you as the psychic medium, know everything. Do you ever get those people that say, well, I don’t know, you tell me?  Well, I’m not God and I would never want to be, and I never claim to be so I’m very human and this is not an exact science.  Although I’m trying to prove that it is with all the research. 

GM:  I agree with you. I love the science proving the existence of what we do too. It validates what we are picking up.  Have you ever dealt with a darker energy?

Kim Russo:  Yes, when I was filming Pennhurst.  Something attached to me, and I actually went back with two of my students and we had to release it.

I’m not immune.  Although I do all my practices and all my, you know, prayers and protection. It’s sort of like. You’re a Velcro stick and there could be something that sticks and you may not know it until it starts to manifest itself either in an illness or is some kind of mental state or just not feeling yourself. Sometimes you may be feeling like you’re being watched. It manifests all differently for everyone.

GM:  That was a great episode.

Kim Russo:  Yeah, it’s an occupational hazard.  Also, with the work that that you do as well.

GM:  It’s been my passion to work on residential cases and help homeowners with unwanted spirits in their homes.  I experienced the same as you as a child and it was very scary. I said to myself, I will never let somebody else go through this alone.

Kim Russo:  I like to give people the tools to help them.  I don’t do residentials anymore. Where do you live?

GM:  I’m in New Jersey.

Kim Russo:  Oh, OK, good. I’ll refer you out. I have way too many people calling me.

GM:  Thank you. 

GM: What’s coming up for you now? I know that you were speaking about your new book.

Kim Russo:  Yes, spirit told me to do that. Well, I’m working on pitching a few television ideas or streaming ideas, you know, putting me out there again, actively in the midst of that. Spirit is the producer of everything I do. So, I, as the human part of me, have to just go through the motions, you know, do my part. That’s what’s happening. I do have an online store because I learned and have a fascination with the elements of crystals, and I’ve learned how much they can help enhance our energy fields and protect us as well. Take the crystals can take the hit for us on so many so many situations like when I was with Fairuza Balk on an episode of “A Haunting Of”.  I also have my online store for crystals.  So, if you order from my store, it may not be next-day delivery, but you can be assured that I picked everything for you and I even might have made that bracelet for you, that’s the truth.  It also helps in my meditative grounding way of it.  I just go into my crystal room.

GM:   Kim, thank you so much for taking the time to talk with me it was an absolute pleasure.  I’m excited for this new book to come and to see you back on TV.  Do you have any final words for your fans?

Kim Russo:  Yes, the last thing I want to say is if you were born and you came here now. You are a warrior and you decided to be part of this big, incredible transition in history.  So, give yourself a round of applause for coming here and being brave enough to back and you are here for a reason. You are here for a purpose, and you will be finding that very shortly if you haven’t already, and that they can definitely take to the bank.
