What If It Did Work?
The Dead Have Messages Too: Meet Jasmine Boodle
When Jasmine Boodle started reading tarot cards at age 13 in fields with her childhood friend, she couldn't have known how profoundly this practice would shape her life's purpose. Now, with over two decades of experience, she's transformed personal tragedy into a healing gift for others through what she calls "induced death communication."
The turning point came after her father's passing. Having just given birth, Jasmine found herself caring for her dying father while grieving his impending loss. After his death, she sought answers from mediums about family matters that troubled her, but none could provide the specific connection she needed. Frustrated yet determined, Jasmine developed her own method of spirit communication by adapting techniques she'd observed in paranormal investigations, combined with her extensive knowledge of tarot.
Unlike traditional readings, Jasmine's approach empowers clients to ask direct questions to loved ones who have passed on. Using pendulums, boards, and tarot cards, she facilitates conversations that bring remarkable closure. "Once I got the answers I needed," Jasmine explains, "I was able to function much better grief-wise." This healing experience drives her to help others find similar peace.
What makes Jasmine's practice unique is her ethical approach. She follows a code similar to a therapist's, committing to honesty even when the messages aren't what clients hope to hear. This integrity extends to her tarot readings, where she's noticed relationship reconciliation questions dominate her practice. Rather than feeding false hope, she lets the cards speak their truth, becoming "that friend that tells you the truth" when necessary.
Looking toward the future, Jasmine dreams of creating spiritual healing retreats where people can escape everyday stresses while experiencing holistic healing in comfortable surroundings. Her parting wisdom resonates deeply: "Following your intuition instead of being afraid of things, because your fear always blocks you from actually doing the things you want to do."
Want to experience Jasmine's unique gifts? Connect with her on Facebook as Jasmine Boodle or find her on the Bitwine app as Gypsy Jasmine. Whether you're seeking closure with someone who's passed or guidance about your path forward, her compassionate approach might be exactly what you need to find peace.

I never told no one that my whole life I've been holding back. Every time I load my gun up so I can shoot for the star, I hear a voice like who do you?
Speaker 2:think all right, everybody, another day, another dollar, another one of my favorite episodes, my favorite podcast, because I'm biased what if it did work? A little change of pace on this one. She she's an entrepreneur. She's more than that. She's a spiritual advisor. She knows and she can tell your future. She can speak to dead people, and she's Jasmine Boodle. Jasmine Boodle started doing readings at the age of 13, having honed her skills for over the last 20 years After her father passed away. She's seen mediums to try to get the answers in order just to move on, just like most of us would, but they could never connect. So she created her induced death communication where you can ask your loved one the questions that keep you up at night and the messages you all crave. We all crave. She has a background in working in the industry one-on-one readings, holistic psychic fairs. She's spoken at universities. She's taught others the practice of tarot. How's it going, jasmine?
Speaker 3:Good, how are you?
Speaker 2:good, how are you doing great so at 13?
Speaker 3:do you do you think people are born with a gift like that to be clairvoyant? I I don't. I I feel like people are drawn to things, so, like you know how some people, like some kids, really like working on cars and they like cars right away or trains or something like that, and they follow through with that. I was always drawn to like witchy things like what I would they take us to the library of school and stuff. I'd always find those books, the adult section, and they'd take them away from me.
Speaker 3:And, um, my mom finally broke down and bought me tarot cards when I was 13 because I just would not stop and she didn't like candles in the house, right. So she figured that would stop the candles in the house. So she bought me tarot cards and I used to sit in the field with my good friend and practice doing tarot cards over and over and over again, um, until I figured it out. But, and also the book that I came with taught palmistry and numerology and kind of how numerology and tarot can be used together. So it was a it was what one of those books reading um, tarot cards for dummies. It had a lot of information in it, right. So I ended up learning quite a bit just from reading this book right At a younger age, which then it was able to help me practice doing it as I got older, because I learned it so young right.
Speaker 2:So your mom didn't have like a knee jerk reaction, she didn't freak out when you said you wanted you, you wanted tarot cards or any of these other things. You know because, because I mean my, my mom, super liberal, I, I know she tried to dabble in it a million years ago, but you know, I, I know you're canadian, but still usually a lot of people, oh my gosh, it's evil when all people say that all the time and learn a lot like don't let their kids play with my kids.
Speaker 3:But uh, when I was younger, we lived in a really like an old doctor's house from like the 1920s. So there was definitely spirits there, right, and I would see them and hear them all the time and I would say it to my mom, right. So this is going back being like three years old, so she was not really overly shocked when I was like that, plus the books that I would read and things like that, she uh kind of already knew I guess you could say and like um, would rather me do that than, uh, you know, smoke, weed and stuff like that, right. So she was like go ahead, right, she just is afraid of fire but she didn't like candles, so she got me things.
Speaker 3:She like tools, so that I wasn't doing like witchcraft, I guess you could say. Because she hated candles and thought I'd burn the house down, so she gave me tarot cards instead so did you create a side hustle at 13 14?
Speaker 2:were you charging for tarot card readings, or you were just dabbling until you realized you had the gift?
Speaker 3:I got obsessed with it, where it was a problem where I would read my cards every day in the morning before I would go to school and it became just it kind of took over my life because I needed the cards for every single answer. That was a side hustle, it was more of like an addiction for me. So I kind of had to put them down for a little while because I was overly obsessed with them. Like it was like every little thing in my life I had to ask and I felt was connected to it and everything else right. So it was kind of overtaking my life a little bit. So I had to pull back on it to some degree, right?
Speaker 2:now how.
Speaker 3:How often were you, were the cards spot on though um, a lot, and that's why I had to stop doing it, because it was just like I, I just everything, I don't know. Sometimes you need life to happen. You can't always have the knowledge of it, because it it also messes with your mind, right? Because they're telling me what's going to happen, so I'm already assuming that's going to happen. Now, if you take that out of the equation, I don't know what's gonna happen, and it leaves me a little bit more space to like live life.
Speaker 2:I guess you could say right yeah, but when you live life also, though, when somebody tells you, like if the cards said hey, you know, don't go out with Billy, he's a dick, he's going to break your heart. But now you changed your future anyways, wouldn't you?
Speaker 3:Well, see, it's a funny part too, because they do. There's a certain part of the cards on the second half of the deck, the minor Arcata, which do have to do with free will, and they change a lot, right, and I don't always listen to things that I'm told because it's just my personality. So if it says no, I just did it anyways, right. And then I like, even when I read them now, because, um, I should make a certain decision in my life, I um usually ask my dad right for the advice and, um, usually my dad tells me the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over, because I haven't made the choice he's telling me to make, right.
Speaker 2:so it's like, well, I just fight things, I guess, tooth and nail so I know your your father dying had a profound effect on you, clearly from your intro. Now, at what age were you when your father left?
Speaker 3:so I was 29, um, what had happened was I just had a baby, had a baby and they found out he had cancer that had mastocized all over his body and then he ended up not stopping working and he ended up getting septic shock from working on air conditioners and was in the hospital for three months and in the ICU in a coma. So I spent a lot of time there, also while having a newborn, and then when he came home, I took care of him until he ended up passing away in palliative care. But my aunt was doing a lot of backdoor things because he had cancer of the brain and he couldn't make decisions properly. She was doing things behind my back. She doesn't like me, um, and that's where the questions lied right, where I wanted to know if that's truly what he wanted or if it's something that she manipulated him into doing.
Speaker 2:I suppose you could say right now you saw medium after medium trying to find one that can do, can communicate with them. Now, did you find it? Or did you just find you had the the actual gift to speak with the dead, with the deaf, communication?
Speaker 3:um, I'll go ahead so I'll explain how I kind of created it. It's actually not mediumship that I used to do it with. I use the tools that I've always used, um. So basically I was watching a paranormal investigation investigation show where they were using pendulums which is like this little guy and a board like this to um see if there's any spirits in the house that they could communicate with, right.
Speaker 3:So I stole that idea and I made it a little bit deeper in a way of communicating with people so that I could get the answers I wanted, right.
Speaker 3:So that I would ask the board, basically if my father wanted to talk to me and I've had it say no for clients when people don't want to talk to them, but anyways, I got it to speak with him and I got the answers I wanted.
Speaker 3:Plus, then, also with the tarot cards, if something's going on in my life, I will ask them what my dad thinks I should do like for guidance, and I also. Some people also want the guidance or advice that I do the same thing for them when I do it, because once we call upon the spirit, they we know they're there and I say their name as I shuffle the cards. Or if it's in person. They have the control over the board and the pendulum. They ask all the questions they want and they can do the cards and I just explain them and read them to them. Right, that way they have control. And that was the issue with the mediums was that they just couldn't find that answer and I needed a way to figure that out and somehow it just came from that television show and I kind of put it together in my own way, I suppose.
Speaker 2:Well, congratulations, I mean you. Not only did you help find your answers, but now you're helping other people find it. Now, is there a way? Now you spoke to your father. Now Can you speak to any dead person, like, let's say, these are actual people, but my Aunt Maria, my Uncle Ralph, that died, or does it have to be a spirit that's stuck around that has unfinished business?
Speaker 3:Basically it can be anybody, as long as they answer yes, that they want to speak to you, right? So basically it can be anybody, because I've spoken with friends that maybe have passed away in unsavory ways and kind of asked them how they felt about it now and I probably shouldn't have done that, I suppose, because it gives I don't know right, it's kind of a murky place, but I, yeah, I can be anybody as long as they haven't reincarnated. It can be anybody as long as they haven't reincarnated and from what I have read and learned, usually people don't reincarnate for a hundred years. I guess just from reading that I've done so, I feel like most people can connect to the spirit they would like to talk to, as long as the person wants to, right? Because sometimes they don't want to, especially if it's with like so I don't know the person that well, if I, so I teach them to do it privately, because then maybe the person would want to talk to them because they don't know me, maybe they don't want me involved in the conversation, right?
Speaker 2:so it has to be two, there has to be. What you would recommend is, like I do this practice of meditating, or what you would show me how, and I would speak to Whomever dead friend, dead relatives that I've got like something that needs to be answered, and after we do that, then it becomes a clearer path. You can help go the distance in that aspect.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and, like I said, I do teach people to do it privately because it can be emotional, depending on what you're asking, obviously Right, and like I said, once I got the answers that I needed, I was able to function much better grief wise. I guess you could say handle things, and I obviously still miss him and cry and get upset and things, but I don't have that irking little thing. You know what I mean, that I just need the answer to. Or, like you know, sometimes when people pass and you wished you were over there and they passed without you, that kind of thing, a lot of people will ask that's happened to me. So there's other like I had lots of questions, right, so I really had to figure it out because it was like it was causing me anxiety and I couldn't Overcome that. I guess you could say Right.
Speaker 2:So did you get all the answers that you were looking for with your father?
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Now was there a closure, or do you still communicate with your father?
Speaker 3:um, I still communicate with him when things in my life get difficult. Uh, I always had when he was alive, so I still do that now. Um, I already talked to him today. So I mean, yeah, I talked to him today. So I mean, yeah, I talked to him. Like I said, if something is that I have, something going on in my life. I speak to him and it's just because, out of habit, right, I always have.
Speaker 2:So but um mom's still alive right.
Speaker 3:Yeah, my mom's still alive.
Speaker 2:Now, does she ever want you to ask your dad questions? Do they communicate, or it's just you?
Speaker 3:and your dad. They weren't together anymore. Oh, okay. I got it. She doesn't really have a whole lot of questions. The same questions I had she had, so they got answered, I guess because, they had to do with another family member, obviously, so it was something that we both wanted to know, I guess, right.
Speaker 2:Mm-hmm, now does this happen like right off the bat? Like how many sessions does it take when it comes to the induced death communication?
Speaker 3:Does this happen like right off the bat, or the client has to see you a couple times. No, it happens first time.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 3:And if you don't do it, like when I teach tarot lessons, I teach this with it. So I've had, like people in my classes do it on their own, without me even helping them and stuff, and they would even say the same thing that they were able to speak to the people they wanted to, privately, on their own Right.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but when you do so, you teach people how to read tarot as well.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, teach people how to read tarot as well. Yeah, yeah, but that's that's taking it out of. You know if I'm like, well, I was gonna hire jasmine for a reading, but now you, you taught me how, how to do it. Now can anybody actually do readings? Or you have to have a gift, or you have to be open.
Speaker 3:What's the process, and something like that I I feel like, because I'm empathic, I would identify as so I feel, people's energy very, very easily, right? So I feel like you need to be able to have that quality, to be able to read cards, because you have to be able to read the person that you're reading, because they don't tell you anything about themselves, like nothing, right. And then you read their cards. You have to decipher what this means for them. So if you can't read their energy, then you can't tell anything about them, right? So for me I can feel like when I meet people, I know things about them and I kind of know their personality. I know, I don't know. It's like downloading almost Right Once I like speak with them and they don't even tell me much, right, and that's kind of called a cold reading is when somebody doesn't tell you anything really and then you just read their cards and you have to figure it out.
Speaker 3:It can be very difficult if you don't know. Like I said, if you aren't empathic and you can't pick that up and know certain things about somebody, just somehow. Do you know what I mean? You won't be successful with it. Do you know what I mean? You can learn all you want what the cards mean, but reading them and doing it. I think you do kind of need something there. Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2:Of course, yeah, but yeah, you also have to be completely open to the process. Yeah, 100% and zero hesitation. You can't come from a place of judgment, I'm I'm sure, no well, I've had.
Speaker 3:I've not had like the easiest life. So I mean I've made my own mistakes or things have just happened to me. So for me it's better that I don't come from a place of judgment, and I will even use my own life experiences to make people feel a little bit more comfortable about talking about certain scenarios in their own life, right, which helps a lot with the um trust.
Speaker 2:I guess you could say now, jasmine, do you have to do? Do you do readings or the induced deaf communication is it? Does it all have to be in person or can it be over the phone? Can we do like like? What we're doing now is zoom or it doesn't matter, all the above I, yeah, all of the above right, so I can do it.
Speaker 3:I've done it for people virtually a lot of times. Same with the tarot reading. I hate saying, oh, so basically, yeah, it can be done virtually or it can be done in person. But when you were saying the thing about the class, what I, I'm saying and this is just from a scaling point, one-on-one I have to do so many people it's like a hundred people, when I could teach a hundred people instead. Right, so that's 100, instead of going over and over and over and over, right. So, yes, maybe I'm giving away stuff, right, but usually the clients that I read tarot for I talk to them like every day, so I still haven't lost clients.
Speaker 3:I work for an app where I strictly just read tarot and they don't know who I am, which also helps with that. So that's how I kind of see it as a scaling thing. As it takes less, you make more money. I guess you could say, by doing it that way, by teaching it, then you can, by going one after one after one after one, after one after one, right, because I don't like to charge people a whole lot for a tarot reading. I don't think it's fair to charge somebody $80 for a half an hour tarot reading. I charge 40, right. So that's why I'm saying in the scheme of finance finance.
Speaker 2:That's why I teach the class anyway because, because you could, you can make more. Because if, if it's a room full of people, now how long does it take you? How long, like, let's say me, uh, how long would it take from beginning to end till I'm completely certified? How long is that process to become decent at reading the cards?
Speaker 3:Basically, what I would do is send you three videos that are probably about four. So four cards like the descriptions. So four cards like the descriptions and then the description of the card plus how to answer the most popular questions that people are going to ask you. And I have to do with the card and I do about four cards per lesson and I set out three lessons a week and it usually takes about a month to fully understand. I also come on live and with them and stuff like that and we discuss it as well. But I do do the videos because then people can go back and look at it when they do their practice, right.
Speaker 2:Okay and Well, we'll never be, never be afraid of charging a box, especially your help. You're solving problems, you're helping people out.
Speaker 3:So to me, the scenario where it was being charged $80. Was almost because they were forcing me to and, like I said, I like to fight against everything. So I was like nope, I'm charging $40 and I don't care. So that might be a little bit of that.
Speaker 2:I'm assuming probably the most popular, especially now we're almost getting towards Valentine's Day, is what's my future love life? Oh, is what's my future love life.
Speaker 3:Oh, not. What's my future love life? What am I going to get married? Are we going to reconcile? Are we going to reconcile? Are the big ones right now?
Speaker 2:Oh, are we going to reconcile? Yeah, oh we haven't talked in a couple weeks Are we going to reconcile?
Speaker 3:So that's the big one. That's what I asked about.
Speaker 2:So reconciliation is more in demand than when can I find someone new?
Speaker 3:Yeah, it's surprising. And a lot of these people are long distance too, so that also doesn't make sense to me.
Speaker 2:So I'm like, ok, that's funny, but believe it or not, I completely understand, because at times, like on Audible, the number one books a lot of times is is how to get your ex back, like how to manifest a past relationship, and it's, it's. It's like, literally, I think if, if you want to go through all that headache again of something that didn't work for the first, second, third, fourth, fifth time, but if you want the six times a charm, you know, manifest that probably the easiest. Second, third, fourth, fifth time, but if you want the six times the charm, manifest probably the easiest thing is to pick up the phone and say, hey, do you want to fight again for the next few months or the next few years and make each other miserable. And if they say yes, then there's your manifestation.
Speaker 3:Pretty much. I wish I could outright say that to people, but I can't or I get really bad reviews and you need good reviews.
Speaker 2:But you're going to be the bearer of bad news, Cause a lot of times reconciliation, but you well, I'll tell them if I give the card, say they shouldn't get back together.
Speaker 3:I tell them that I just I don't say like, oh well, if you really want that person back, you can get back together and fight for a while.
Speaker 2:you know, yeah, but are you the better of bad news? You let the cards fall and it's say, hey, he or she's moved on, it's not in the cards. I say it as nice as possible.
Speaker 3:But, yeah, because I kind of have to. I feel like it's just I kind of follow like a certain code of like conduct, right, almost like a therapist and I so I feel like my code of conduct is to tell the truth, right, and not lie, because I believe in karma right, and I don't want karma to come back and fight me. And he asked because I lied to somebody and it really screwed their life up, right well, yeah, especially, you don't want these people.
Speaker 2:You don't want to be chasing people because, you know, with zero hope, but you have this false hope because someone didn't want to let you down.
Speaker 3:You know and you know you're you're chasing that windmill and they're still like, no, get away from me, get away from me well, then they become really obsessed when you tell them that the person is, is no, and they keep asking you over and over and over and over and over and over again, hoping for a different answer and not getting one. And then they become obsessed. So you have to kind of block them or move away from that, because they literally will ask you like 30 times a day the same question and still get the same answer, but still want to know and it's like it's not going to change.
Speaker 2:Well, I mean, what do you think you say? A lot of these are long distance relationships. I mean they can't find anybody local. Last I checked between the united states and canada there's there's about like half a billion people well, that's why I already am a little skeptical when I do those readings.
Speaker 3:anyways, once they say they're long distance and stuff, cause I'm like how long distance? And then they'll tell me and it's like, well, uh, um, well I mean, I go to van probably not the best idea, but I'll read your cards anyways, right?
Speaker 2:She lives in Vancouver and I'm all the way in Toronto.
Speaker 3:Oh no, it would be like I live in Canada and they live in Thailand, or something.
Speaker 1:Or.
Speaker 3:Botswana or Nigeria, so like they're very yeah.
Speaker 2:So that's way more popular than like finding someone new. How about when it comes to finances, a new job, is this job? Am I, is this the right job for me? Is that another popular one, I'm assuming?
Speaker 3:yeah, a lot of people want to know if, um, they should stay in the career they're in, or if they should do something else, and I like, or if, or if they're going to get a promotion or noticed at work. You know what I mean. So a lot of the time they do want to know if they should change jobs, or they want to know if they're going to move up the ladder at their job.
Speaker 2:Right, Now, so you have your clients. How often would you recommend somebody having a reading?
Speaker 3:I would say like once a week, not every day, because I have people that just want them every day and I feel like I said it becomes obsessive. It did for me. I've had clients become obsessive because of it. I would say once a week is probably good. Gives you enough information for that week to help you figure out your week and things like that. But it doesn't give you too much detail where you know everything and then you're obsessed with always knowing everything and stuff like that. It still gives you that little bit of freedom in your life too, right.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but isn't there freedom by just having free will and not knowing they?
Speaker 3:but they don't like.
Speaker 1:They want to know everything and they want to know everything going on in the person in their life's head.
Speaker 3:They want to know everything. So that's why I say like once a week is probably good now what?
Speaker 2:what do you prefer? Do you prefer the tarot readings, the one-on-ones, or do you prefer the induced death communication with the loved one?
Speaker 3:I prefer the induced death communication because it's something special to me, like because of my father, um and I like being able to help people answer the same kind of questions or just kind of have the same form of relief from this, like from whatever they're going through, and being able to ask questions from that person and stuff like that brings a lot of um peace. I suppose right and um helps answer a lot of questions. I suppose right and helps answer a lot of questions. That helps you kind of move on from things. Right, and it's not I like that. It's actually. People never become overly obsessed with it and that's another thing I like about it. They come they might come a couple times to have a few things answered and have some family members come and have a few things answered and then they don't usually come back for the same reading. They might come back for a tarot or a palm, but those type of people never usually become obsessed because they're not talking to me about love the love people always become obsessed, but everybody else I like.
Speaker 3:I said I like the death and deuce. I do like reading the tarot. I'm not saying I hate reading love tarot, I'm just saying that it usually becomes an issue for the people that I do it for. So that's the one thing I don't. That I do it for, so that's the one thing I don't. I wouldn't suggest for people to say, like, really use that as advertising that you do love readings, because you're going to get a lot of addicted people, right, but yeah, so for the most part I like to do the death induced communication just because, or the induced death communication because it's very close to me, because of my father.
Speaker 2:You also heal people. You help people find closure. You found closure. You found the answers that you wanted from your father. If it wasn't for that ability, you wouldn't have been able to get those answers.
Speaker 3:You would have had all those unresolved questions with you that's another reason why I like doing it, because I know it's actually healing somebody and I'm like I genuinely like to heal people. I feel like like just saying you know you're broken, so you fix others. You know what I'm saying, until maybe one day you learn to fix yourself. That's just kind of what I'm going by with that, and it does make me feel better knowing that I was able to bring somebody some peace. You know, it is a good feeling, which I don't like to take that away because it shouldn't be about me having a good feeling, it should be about them having a good feeling.
Speaker 2:But obviously I feel better about that than anything else because I know that it helps somebody right now, how accurate are the tarot cards like if, if I want to get back with with my ex because you, you, you talk about that a lot. Not that I'm drunk, trust me, I, I, I, I like, because I mean, I would feel like a complete goofball if I'm the person that's asking, like you know, almost every day, jasmine, tell me, tell me, is she, is she thinking about me? Is, is she seeing anyone? If you know, if I become this, are the cards pretty accurate.
Speaker 3:Yeah, the cards will actually end up repeating themselves, so you'll end up having the same cards come up over and over maybe not quite all exactly the same ones, but one you had the day before will come up again, and then another one that you had a couple days before will come up again and they'll all be the same basic advice of no, you shouldn't do that usually, right?
Speaker 3:um, it's usually. It usually doesn't say yes in the person's mind usually doesn't change, right so? And I use like the pendulum to show them that it's also saying this light, so you really can see the accuracy of what both things are trying to say to you, right?
Speaker 2:okay. So then if you're like, okay, there there's, there's a great chance of reconciliation. Nobody ever comes back and goes. Jasmine, I flew all the way to singapore and that and they were done. I, that was such a long flight and it was over.
Speaker 3:There's no, nothing like that no, usually, um, I get people that'll message me and be like oh my god, what you said actually happened. I just wanted to tell you, just so that you knew look at that. You know, let the cards fall, but that to me is a big compliment, right? So I like, of course, when they do that of course.
Speaker 2:And then they I would keep on going with you if, if the answers were were pretty spot on. No, they usually do.
Speaker 3:No go like I said like um, sometimes the cards will come up and that makes sense, so I'll reread them because I realized that like the person wasn't as focused or I wasn't as focused, so I'll redo them. I also don't just read somebody's cards and when I know that it's not correct, I guess that you could say and I can tell if it is or not. So I'll tell them that I have to redo it.
Speaker 2:I hear you and with the career, I mean sometimes like, am I getting a promotion, am I getting a raise? Sometimes I mean sometimes, like, am I getting a promotion, am I getting a raise? Sometimes I mean, well, if you always call out, you barely work. I mean the cards are going to say, dude, start working and you're going to get that promotion.
Speaker 3:They're pretty like they tell you what you need to hear. So they're not the front like. I don't mean they're not friendly, but like they're. They're that friend that tells you the truth. Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2:So you, you, you had to tell people hey, get off your ass and start working.
Speaker 3:There's a, there's a card that literally represents that. So yeah, but I can't say it in that way, right.
Speaker 2:Well, you just have. So you politely tell them well, it just says, if you work a little harder.
Speaker 3:If you work out what you really want, you'll get it. But you have to work for it.
Speaker 2:Is how I'll say it and the light bulb goes off and they're like, oh, I got the answer. Then more than likely they're gonna be trying something yeah, yeah, that's good.
Speaker 2:no, that that's completely good and and especially you know it's, it's good to know that. A lot of people wondering. I guess it's like Lionel Richie's hello, you know they're wondering what they're doing, if they're somewhere feeling lonely or someone loving you. So now, with the tarot cards, is it like the usual decks that you see at Barnes, noble, amazon, or do you recommend and you have your own special deck?
Speaker 3:Well, I have a different deck, so, yes, all the same, they're called Rider Waite. That's the original tarot deck. This is the cards all look the same. Right, that's Rider Waite. That is the typical original tarot. There is Oracle cards and some like other ones that are designed and they just give you messages, like you pull a card and it says, oh, today, if you are positive, good things will happen, things like that. Right, it's a little different, those kind of cards. But the Rider Waite cards are the cards that are usually read by readers at like anywhere, usually Oracle people. Oracle cards are kind of like for fun, right, that's the fun side of it. But the Rider Waite is the deck they use for information and for guidance and stuff like that now.
Speaker 2:I know, I'm assuming you have children now their friends or their. I know I'm assuming you have children now their friends or their mom and dad's oh my gosh Jasmine does card Like I'm sure you have both. You have the oh, that's amazing. And then you have the other ones that want to throw like holy water and like throw Bibles at you and all the other good stuff.
Speaker 3:Pretty much Like my daughter had a friend that she couldn't come over because I read tarot cards because they were very Catholic, right. And then she has this other friend whose mom comes over with her kids so that I can read her cards for her. So, yes, very different right. Oh, yeah, I even had one of their friends want to start business with me, but that just didn't really go very well.
Speaker 2:But like, yeah, usually the parents are interested in it, unless they're super religious, right well, yeah, uh, but but then again they're always trying to find something the the past judgment on on. So then, is it similar? Is it like the movies, or the movies are completely, you know, nothing like it when it comes to a reading.
Speaker 3:I feel like it's like half the way it is. Do you know what I mean? It's half the way it is. I mean, crazy things don't happen, Like, like you know, drawers start banging, or you know what I mean Like lights start flashing.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, I wasn't thinking anything like that.
Speaker 3:That kind of stuff doesn't happen, um, but like the way that we go about doing it, like the spreads they use yes, um, those are certain spreads people will use and, um, they do use the cloth they do sit across and like, um, they do have a crystal ball, but usually that's just for decorative purposes. As much as they like to say it, they can see things in it. You can't trust me. It's decorative, um, and what about?
Speaker 2:similar movies that way. Or does that work? What the ball? No, the ouija board from parker brothers or whoever that makes it, and they've made a million movies based off it um, I've never had it work, so I can't say I have any experience with it.
Speaker 3:Now I have other people that have stories, but I mean I don't know if they're just stories or not.
Speaker 2:Right, I think it's stories and I think you, you push, you know subconsciously, you help push it towards the answer that you want.
Speaker 3:Well, that's why it's hard to know for sure, like with people's stories, right like because I've never, of course had those experiences, like I've had experiences with spirits that are angry, that do smash things in the house, um, but uh, it was never because of a Ouija board or anything, right right, it was just the spirit was pissed, I don't know right.
Speaker 2:No angry spirits. I'm assuming they're just angry when they're alive, so they're pissed off, yeah they're just the same in death.
Speaker 3:I guess they kind of haven't been able to move on. They're just angry.
Speaker 2:That's what happens when you don't do personal development. You see they, they just need to learn how to chill, you know yeah, basically that's what it is so this, this is amazing. You, this gift that you have, not only do you help people, but you make a living. You you, because you said you're even on and there's tarot card apps is that yeah?
Speaker 3:so there's tarot reading apps and I work for one of them, or for the one that takes the least commission, oh yeah you have to have commission, obviously, because they put you on your platform and I'm on a platform where I can do whatever I want.
Speaker 3:So I like this site because I can do whatever I want, I can charge whatever I want, I can block people if they're being rude or being obsessive or any of that kind of stuff. I'm an anonymous person, so they can't find me in the real world and stuff, so it's kind of nice, right.
Speaker 2:Now what's the best way to find you for a reading? Probably just my.
Speaker 3:Facebook. If you just PM me on Facebook is probably the best way right now, because my website won't take bookings for some reason.
Speaker 2:So your page on Facebook is public, jasmine Boodle.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it's public.
Speaker 2:Okay, so I I'm like it's almost Valentine's day Just send you a PM. I want to know about my love life.
Speaker 3:Yeah, you can, if you want.
Speaker 2:Okay. Well, that's good, not me. I'm just throwing hypotheticals out there. Now, that's the best, that's the easiest way to get a hold of you for anything. Do you do palm reading? Palm reading, you have to be there, Like in Canada.
Speaker 3:Well, I don't know. I have had people like friends of mine send me pictures of their hands and I can read them, usually through that, as long as the picture's clear enough, right? Uh-huh. So I don't charge them for that. That's just stuff I have with friends, right? But if you want, like an accurate to the teapot reading, obviously I have to be there because I need to be able to see every little thing on your hand, right?
Speaker 3:Because, there's lots to it, I suppose, more than you'd think. I write it down so that they can look at it later.
Speaker 2:Maybe in a past life you were a gypsy, because you're very gifted.
Speaker 3:You're very talented. I'm an Irish gypsy now. Well, there you go. My family's Irish and my grandmother came over from Ireland. She was a gypsy, but my mom didn't carry that on due to she thought that my grandma had passed away, when really that didn't happen and I don't know. Long story.
Speaker 2:We'll wait. We'll wait for the TV.
Speaker 3:Yeah, we'll wait for my TV show.
Speaker 2:The Jasmine Boodle. Where do you see yourself? Do you see yourself? I would like to Pardon no. Where do you see yourself doing more Pardon? No. Where do you see yourself and I know that maybe there's a pun in this or not when do you see yourself, I don't know, five years from now, with all of this, do you see yourself blowing up as the teacher of tarot card readings, or what ideally would you like to see yourself, jasmine?
Speaker 3:I want to do retreats, like unique retreats that are for healing, but not the same as every other one. You know where they do what they do. I would like to have retreats at an upper class place for, like, maybe the weekend and um teach or not teach, but like give holistic healing and teach as I go if the people so feel they want. Do you know what I mean? But mostly it's just for them to heal in the ways that I help heal people, plus, also feel like they're in like a nice place, so they are comfortable, they're at peace, they feel like they're away from their everyday life. You know what I mean. So I would like to have like my own property that I own, that I can have a retreat on, so that I can just use that instead of having to rent somewhere all the time.
Speaker 2:Ayahuasca or no Ayahuasca? I don't know yet.
Speaker 3:So possibility some peyote, any marijuana, or or just complete yeah, marijuana, yeah, I'm canadian, right, but I've got my card, so you know I don't have good experiences with mushrooms, so probably not mushrooms yeah, no, the last time I had that, I had a bad experience.
Speaker 2:I was in Amsterdam.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I wouldn't want to give that to other people and have them freak out too, right?
Speaker 2:Especially in your care right.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I would probably, because it would be in Canada. I'd probably promote smoking the marijuana to help calm down, to do certain things that are going to be emotional, right, so they're not so of course, especially if you're going to give me bad news.
Speaker 2:You know, at least let me hit the bong. You know the tribal bong, before you break into me.
Speaker 3:Oh, there's one card called the Tower, and the way it even just looks artwork-wise, you just know it's bad. So when it comes up in your spread, you just know Even if you don't know terrible. You know it's not a good card. That's the card.
Speaker 1:I'd pick.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, great. How do I spin this?
Speaker 2:I'm sure this, I'm sure, I'm sure, jasmine, sometimes the bearer of bad news, sometimes good news, sometimes, you know, in between, so pretty much so then we? We don't want to find you on the app, right, because they charge yeah you can find me on the app.
Speaker 3:The site is called Bitwine, like B-I-T-W-I-N-E, and my screen name is Gypsy Jasmine on Bitwine.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but you see you're too Canadian. You're supposed to say no, just go cut the middleman. Come straight to me, DM me on Facebook Jasmine Boodle, Get your reading. Let's cut out the middleman.
Speaker 3:You know, I know I didn't need it. You know what. You're right, I'm just thinking of that. I'm thinking, though, of streams of income from everywhere, that's where my brain is at.
Speaker 2:Well, that's another stream of income, multiple streams of income. You see Business, we're talking business, you're business savvy. I try to be I did go to business school back in the day, but I didn't finish.
Speaker 3:That's okay, I tried majoring in accounting and my first semester was 0.025. So I had to switch my majors I think it was all the drinking too but I decided to become a journalist instead. Yeah, um, I'm in school right now for a travel agent, but I did do um law and security and then realized that I'm five feet tall and nobody's gonna listen to me as an authoritative figure, so that's not gonna work well, I'm listening to you and you're five feet tall. Well, there you go. I mean, if I'm like you know.
Speaker 3:I get it, I've worked as a waitress and having to cut somebody off is so difficult that I knew that you know having to do that in a situation that's a little more scary. I wouldn't be able to do it because people just wouldn't listen to me and they'd laugh at my face, right.
Speaker 2:They drink just as much here in the United States as they do in Canada, so it's a big problem.
Speaker 2:Jasmine, thank you for your time, but here we know to find you, jasmine Boodle, on Facebook. You have multiple flows of income here. Do that, do the one-on-ones, do the tarot cards. She'll help you find your future. Let's find someone in your future. Let's cut the bullshit off. Let's quit looking in our past. The past is in the past. Let's live for today. Let's go for that future. Let's go for that person that's always meant to be in your life, but you can't find them because you're looking back instead of forward. And also, jasmine is on the app. You also want to learn how to read tarot cards, because Jasmine wants to make sure everybody has the gift. She can help you with that gift. Do they send you a DM, too, on Facebook for that?
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Okay, DM her away.
Speaker 3:And also any last words of wisdom, Jasmine, when it comes to us, when it comes to our future, when it comes to us, when it comes to our future when it comes to just living our best life, I think, following your intuition instead of being afraid of things, because your fear always blocks you from actually doing the things you want to do. So that's my words of wisdom is use your intuition and push past the fear, and you'll find that you will get a lot further in life.
Speaker 2:From my experience, she's also trying to tell you in the polite way get off your ass. Jasmine, I got to say thank you. I learned a lot. My audience learned a lot. You are a rock star. You're an Irish, gypsy woman and you are the real deal, and thank you for being in service, thank you for helping people find closure and thank you just for being you and living your own life to the fullest and saying F? You to all those that want to judge you or whatnot. You know what, not a shh, and that's okay. I had two at home. Well, they're 19 and 17 now, but been there, done that makes it real Even less than that, just five minutes, five minutes.
Speaker 2:Jasmine's a mom, as you can tell you are pisces well, there you go zodiac sign. Oh, that's great, I'm a leo, so you know that that speaks volumes well, thank you for your time and may the future look bright for you.
Speaker 3:Love you, thank you and thank you so much for having me on and letting me speak. I appreciate it so much no problem.
Speaker 2:And hey, I, I found you. You don't have to pay for that service. I I did. There's no, there's no real future in that. The future is keep on doing what you're doing, keep on posting on instagram that keep on just just being two things informative, compelling and entertaining. Three things I. You see, I'm bad at math. That's why I was never good at accounting.
Speaker 2:You do those three things and you do it on a consistent basis. Everybody will be knocking on your door to be a podcast guest and you'll. You'll blow it all out of the water because you're very funny, You're very entertaining and you have a great story.
Speaker 3:Well, thank you very much for the advice as well.
Speaker 2:All right, you see, you weren't expecting that at the end, but there you go. No, there you go, no. What if you did work?
Speaker 1:what if you took action and made it happen and started living inside of your purpose? What if you did work? Right now you can make the choice to never listen to that negative voice no more. The hardest prison to escape is our own mind. I was trapped inside that prison, oh, for a long time. To make it happen, you gotta take action. Just imagine what if it did work.
