The truth about Palm Reading (plus a LIVE mini reading)

What if the most honest version of you is already visible—on your hands? I sit down with palmistry expert and mentor Michelle McKinley, the Fairy Handmother, to explore how your palms act as a living map of your mind, stress patterns, and potential.  

Michelle brings years of practice and a coaching lens to show how lines can shift roughly every six weeks while fingerprints stay constant from conception, creating a rare blend of change and identity you can actually track.

We dive into elemental hand types and how they shape energy, leadership, communication, and the environments that restore you fastest. Michelle unpacks what each finger signals and also shares why small choices like ring placement and metal can subtly repel or invite what you’re calling in. 

The heart of the conversation is sovereignty: using palmistry to cut through noise, rebuild self-trust, and lead yourself.

Michelle conducts a live mini reading and reveals how my outward traits can diverge from the core self, how stress flips certain patterns, and why tailored grounding rituals—heat, water, space, and air—bring me back online. 

If you’ve ever wondered what palm reading is truly about, this is the conversation for you. I was absolutely amazed by the accuracy of this craft!

Palmistry Beyond The Gimmicks

SPEAKER_01 0:35

you. We have got Michelle McKinley, the fairy handmother, with us today. And Michelle is a palmistry expert. Now I have purposefully done very little research into this. And as Michelle and I were chatting just before we pressed record, I was just saying that I have left it all into the questions so it's completely authentic. So everything you're listening to, we've not had a conversation before. I don't know much about it. I'm just so so excited to find out a little bit more. So I'm gonna let Michelle tell you what a palmistry expert is.

SPEAKER_00 1:13

Oh, hello everybody. Hi, so a so hi so I'm Michelle McKinley, known as the fairy hand mother, and I'm a palmistry expert and uh a mentor as well. And so palmistry is really, really ancient, actually. It goes right the way back, it's in the Egyptian hieroglyphics, it's everywhere, and it has kind of been dumbed down, like a lot of things in the woo and spiritual holistic space have been for many, many, many decades and centuries, to be almost something that's a bit of a gimmick. But actually, true palmistry, which is what I do, is actually really, really deep. It's purposeful, it gives power, and it's empowering as well. It shows you who you really are. So if you show me your hands, that's like you showing me your brain, and I can basically read what you're thinking, how you're feeling, and and basically it's just yeah, it's basically like a map of you and of how you think. And I just think it's fascinating, and I want to dispel the gimmick of what people think palmistry is. I'm not gonna sit there with a scarf on my head and a big crystal ball and cross my palmer silver, and I'm gonna tell you you're gonna die when you're 60. None of that. I mean, you can do things like that, and obviously there's a place for that kind of palmistry as well. But I've trained with some of the world's very best palmists. I've been a palmist for about 15 years, but always been fascinated since I was little. And yeah, I'm just here to kind of yeah, show you what it really is, and actually how everything in life starts and ends with you. When they say your life is in your hands, it truly is. So I just give you the map to show you how to read it.

SPEAKER_01 2:52

It's so fascinating. So basically, in so we're we we're gonna have to talk in layman's terms because I have no understanding of this whatever. So is it essentially like so in my work in Feng Shui, I have like I can read a blueprint energy of a house. So, you know, it like almost how it's built. Is is that essentially what we're saying? So it's

Hands As Blueprint And Elements

SPEAKER_01 3:16

like a so it's like a blueprint.

SPEAKER_00 3:17

It is, it's a blueprint of you. So you but if I explain it, so you read both hands, you read front and back, especially in person, each hand has a different meaning. So the hand that you write with is the now and the going forward, the past, the passive hand is the past, but it's also who you really are. So if you've got two completely different hands or two completely different lines, depending on how you deal with stress or upset, you the hands reverse. So the past hand, the passive hand, becomes your active hand because it's actually who you really are. So you might deal with things very, very, very differently. The only so the lines on your hands change roughly every six weeks. I was just about to say to you, do they change? They change, yes, all the while. The only thing that never changes on your hands is your fingerprints, they're there from conception, basically. So they are intrinsic to you. The palm, so I I don't do like the palm, what we what we would class as traditional palm as we speak with like heart lines, fate lines. I work with elements because it ties in beautifully with everything else. And there are base, there are four basic palm types, and then each finger has a meaning. So if you want me to explain them, I can. Yeah, yeah. So the thumb is the these two, the thumb and index are the most important. Thumb is this is your direction, where you're going, how strong you are, your leadership. This is your your index finger is the mirror. So this is how you really see yourself, and it's also the mother finger. So it's how potential relationships with mothers and female people are females around you might impact and might have impacted on your life. This one is the wall, conformity, jobs, law and order, all the things that hold us together, the bricks that bind the normal everyday life. This one is called the peacock, it's how you parade in front of in front of everybody else, or the mask that you may wear. And this one is the uh communication, it's your antenna. It sticks out. It's the antenna, so it's the communication finger, it's also the father finger. So if there's any father issues, potentially

Fingers, Meanings And Modalities

SPEAKER_00 5:15

you can see them, or male energy issues, and it's also the sex finger, so you can tell an awful lot about sexual issues as well. There are four different types of palmistry. So there's general palmistry, there is spiritual palmistry, there is sexual palmistry, and there is medical palmistry, and you can tell everything you need to know from the palm of your hands.

SPEAKER_01 5:35

That is phenomenal. Like I can't quite get my head around it. I can't believe that the lines on our hands change every six weeks.

SPEAKER_00 5:44

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 5:45

And I have every six weeks, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 5:47

And on the feet, so I can also do foot reading, but that's a bit more get your feet out, that's a bit different. Because I trained as a reflexologist, and then you could all these I've trained an amazing guy called Sam, so there's some other bits and pieces, but that's three months, so it's a lot further. But obviously, the best way to remove any toxins is through the feet as well. So through the salt and all that sort of stuff. So that's a whole other story, and then there's also face reading again, that's something different. But I do palmistry, it's quick and everything, and it's also that human connection, that human touch as well, especially. And it's like we all hold hands, we pinky promise with each other, we do all sorts of things, and it's like having a pinky promise yourself, it's like having a promise with yourself about how to be your be you, actually, you just be more you, but yeah, it's uh it's fascinating how much you can see, yeah. And obviously, everything changes. So if you become stronger or you know, or become or become more childlike or whatever, your palms will change shape, your fingers will go in different lengths and directions, your skin texture will change. The only thing that never changes is fingerprints. That's it.

SPEAKER_01 6:46

So do you have clients then that come back? So is it what's my question? Like, do you is it a kind of once and done, or do you have clients that come back? I don't know, every three months or so for their kind of updated reading, as it were.

SPEAKER_00 7:04

Yeah, so I have it's obviously you have people who come in, generally it starts from intrigue, to be honest with you. They're like, Well, you can't tell me anything, and then you do, and they go, What? I feel like I've been like we've just tickled my brain, what's going on? Who do you how do you know me? And then they'll go, Okay, so how long can I see? I normally say give it at least, I normally say yearly, because if you're trying to change or become something different or grow or whatever, you need to give your body time to catch up and your

Change Over Time: Lines And Prints

SPEAKER_00 7:30

mind time to catch up. So, but what I've actually done, so I'm also a world first founder, and I have designed a because I'm also an internationally accredited life coach, and I was doing that for a few years, and then I realized because I was always doing palmistry all the while, and I realized that palmistry is a mini life coaching session. So I was like, how can I combine this? How can I do this with coaching and go deeper? And I knew I had a system, couldn't quite figure it out, did so. When people work with me, on like I've got a signature course called Peep, which has a very specific meaning. And so we start with palm prints, end with palm prints, and what you get is you work with me, you go through everything, and then because you will change within that time. So, what you get with me, which you don't get anywhere else, is physical proof on the hands of a subconscious mindset shift. So you can physically see yourself changing and becoming whoever you want in real time. And our hands change all the while because we change all the while. So it's there. So I just want to get this out. I think this is like that last little healing tool that everybody has access to, and we don't. It was it could be a conversation starter, so you can have, I'd love it to be. I want I want to have my own team of parmologists globally teaching people how to do this. So, but then once you've done it, you don't need to, I don't want people to need me anymore because you only really need yourself. So it's teach other people to teach other people, and then so it's like I could be looking at someone talking, and I'm looking at the hands all the while, and I go, oh, they could be really happy, but I didn't know they felt like that. I didn't realise they were feeling that low. So you can then maybe start a conversation without starting a conversation, it would be good. You could do that in groups with friends and people you know, and it's a way of bringing us back together and reconnecting us all, but it's not used. So that's kind of what I want to do with it a little bit as well.

SPEAKER_01 9:14

You know, I sit here as a mum, so you know, my world is feng shui and energy, but my purpose-I mean, my my work purpose is is what I do, but you know, I'm a mum.

Coaching Through Palmistry

SPEAKER_01 9:25

That is first and foremost, my most important job in this world is to raise my three children. So I'm sitting here listening to you thinking, what an incredible skill for a parent to be able to interpret that.

SPEAKER_00 9:43

Yes, and I'm especially if you are dealing with teens. Just what I was gonna say. I'm actually I'm actually at the moment trialing something. I'm actually I want to get something, I actually want to get what I do scientifically backed as well. But it you can read hands from about the age of eight up because at the age they're starting to understand them little cells. But I I'm doing some work with I've actually been doing some work with quite a few teenagers, and it is fascinating. So a few weeks ago, my daughter had a Galantine's night, all of our friends come in. I haven't seen them all together in about a year. They do a once a yearly galantines, and there's some boys sometimes involved as well, and they came in and they were like, Oh my god, can you look at our hands? Coming, and I was like, Yeah, of course. Obviously, I read them all a year ago and looked, and the difference in them in a year, how much more serious things have become for them, how much more some of them were hiding because they were worried about outsiders and what other people would think of them and pressures from home and like family, and they can't talk, but I can say to them, I can I see you, yeah, I see you, and that is so so powerful. So I would love to be able to take this into schools as a way to get, especially children, because it's really it's really difficult. Being a teenager, I think is one of the hardest times. Well, any bit any point of life is difficult, right? But it's but it's a time when they really need to be seen more than ever and understood more than ever when they don't understand themselves. And Palmistry, I think, is a beautiful tool because it's also again that connection. I can go in, I can talk to them, we can look at things, but you could also teach outwards, so then teachers can look at them and go, I didn't know you were feeling like that. Come and talk to me. It's about connection and being seen.

SPEAKER_01 11:17

Yeah, well, it's just it's that in itself is so important, obviously, the whole being seen. But I love I say quite a lot. I mean, not so much on I don't I suppose not so much on my social media on my podcast, because I I don't know, but in like the real world, you know, the 3D version of world, I say to people all the time that I am somebody that walks around with my heart on my sleeve, you know, and I like to think that and sometimes that's not a good thing, sometimes it's not a good thing because that's uncomfortable for people sometimes, because I'm honest and you know, I don't keep things hidden very well or very much, um but there's not that many people that do that, and I think having a way of

Connection, Teens And Being Seen

SPEAKER_01 12:05

being able to like it's almost like uncloaking, isn't it? It's it's you you can't hide from that, no, and that's really powerful, and also you know, you can call out a bit of BS. Do you know what I mean? And I think that's important. I think that's really important in again in this world, as we were chatting before we press record, you know, one of the biggest gripes that I have in the modern day life is that especially now the intro of AI, everything that we are absorbing and being told, and you know, it's it's either curated and created for us, trying to sell us something, or isn't real, like it's not there's uh isn't there an Instagram bot that is got like millions of followers that it's not even a real and there's even people they're teaching you how to create your own AI version of you so you can make money by being yourself, but as an AI version of you, so explain it, but that's not you, is it?

SPEAKER_00 13:05

It's still it's gonna be part of you, but it's not the same, and we are losing the biggest thing I think with the introduction of AI, and I think it's an amazing tool, but it's also gonna be quite hindering, is we are losing that human connection, we are losing ourselves to robots in effect.

SPEAKER_01 13:22

We are just I heard something very, very interesting, which is not can not related at all, but also probably quite related. They are apparently the brief now for TV shows and films is to dull down the plot because people are on their phone scrolling at the same time, and therefore you have to now have a plot that somebody can pick up and put down, not lose interest because they're lost. And you're absolutely right. That kind of this human experience that we supposedly should be having as humans on this planet is is it's a skill that's just going.

SPEAKER_00 13:58

Communication is lowering, it's different because everything's online, everything's texting, everything's texting or on on a screen. You know, this is one like for us, like we can talk this way, we haven't got meat, but we can see each other. But in person, it's a different vibe when you're in that because you get you also get what you don't always get through screens, is you don't get another person's energy, you don't get how they're actually feeling, or you can't pick up on things, whereas in person, I think we've lost the art of being around other people, actually. And so for me, I this more this year, especially, whereas like visibility is a huge thing for me. I'm purposefully putting myself in front of people that wouldn't necessarily accept this. I'm putting myself in different rooms because I know how powerful this is, and I've got this whole global vision about what I I know how powerful this is, I know how empowering it is for the people, and to see that automatically, but to see that automatically in people, I can talk to them for like two minutes and I'll go, oh, this and this, and I'll go what? Oh my god. Oh, so I'm okay. I'm like, of course you're okay. But if you want to work on it, work with me or go off and do this. I don't, you don't have to work with me, but if you want to, great. But actually, it's all about you. You need to trust, it's about self-trust. And ultimately, when I talk a bit about sovereignty, so I'm a sovereignty seer, because this is about how

Human Touch In An AI World

SPEAKER_00 15:15

you lead yourself. So self-leadership is where it's at, and you can do that through learning your yourself through how your brain is actually thinking, all those subconscious thoughts that you've dumbed down, and all those out we we we outsource so much of ourselves to other people, situations, places, all of that sort of thing. And we don't listen to ourselves, we've lost that art because we've given we're we've we're there's so much, we're so there's so much around us all the while, especially with the social media and the internet and everything else. There's so much noise externally that we don't know how to listen in. But when you listen in, that's when everything changes, and that is where I think Palmistry comes in, and it's quite special.

SPEAKER_01 15:57

Yeah, I mean, that's such a massive part of like my job and my world is intuition and connection with the self because actually, you know, and it's a bit of a just general kind of theme, I suppose, that comes up for me all the time is exactly that is that we we we allow so much externally coming and affect us when actually you know it it all it all starts you know in the self, doesn't it?

SPEAKER_00 16:31

It starts inside you, it has to start with you because if it doesn't, you're you're giving your power away. Yeah, you're giving your power away with everybody else, and actually you need to harness your own power, your own strength, your own beliefs, and actually your love for yourself. And we've all fallen out of not all of us, because if when you've done a lot of work, you kind of understand that you need to love yourself first, right? You're the only person you're here with for your entire life, so you've got to love you firstly first, or it all goes a bit wrong. So, yeah, it's it's it has to start inside, it has to start in you, yeah. And that's it, start with you, and it and but but this your brain, this is the most most amount of nerve endings from your brain are next in your hands, so it's going to naturally show you. So it's like this is like a little GPS, and it's gonna re-wire it can rewire and re-root and do all sorts of things all the while. I just know how to read it.

SPEAKER_01 17:29

It's so cool because you know you have this preconception, don't you? And I messed when I messaged you on Instagram, I said, My daughter and I are reading a book at the minute. And so I I messaged you on Instagram, and then was it? I can't remember, it was either that day or the day after that we were reading a chapter of this book, which has nothing to do with any of this, but they went to a fair and they basically found a fortune teller lady, and it was the typical kind of you know, she had a ball and

Self-Trust, Sovereignty And Energy

SPEAKER_01 18:00

she read palms, yeah, and but and I I laughed, I laughed because I thought this that's exactly it, isn't it? That's exactly it.

SPEAKER_00 18:07

That is the preconception is of palmistry, of what you do, yeah, absolutely, and that's and and I've obviously I've trained, there's lot there's lots and lots of people who do palmistry, but I've realized that from being around other people that do it, even like guys that people I've trained with, and they're not talking about it as deeply as they need to. It is so deep, it's intrinsic to us. It is our own healing tool. We literally have it in the palm of our hands, and we are not using it in the way that we need to, but this can go from anyone, it can go from children right to the very, very top. It can go to elites, it can be with sportsmen and women, it can be, you know, in top corporations, because you, if you can get your people at the very top to actually be heart-led and listen to them their own rather than outsourcing, that filtering down is going to have a huge impact because it's going to make everyone talk a bit more and actually think a bit more about who they are and what they need and not listening to what is it got not expected of you, it's different in a job, it's a different kind of thing, but it's still you have to trust yourself, and too many people put too much trust in everybody else and everything and not in themselves, and when you start to retrust, it's different.

SPEAKER_01 19:22

Well, absolutely, absolutely, and you know, it goes in that full circle, doesn't it? Of and it and it as I say all the time, everything is energy. And if you put energy into yourself and you have that, you know, that connection with the self, yeah, trust and all of those things, magic happens.

SPEAKER_00 19:38

It's energy, right? It's if you're looking for it, it will come to you, but it's also how you speak about yourself, it's how you feel about yourself, how you think about yourself, and that all comes out through the body and the deep subconscious and your nervous system and everything else. So it's if you can heal all of that and make everything a bit calmer, everything else will work around you because it's it's to and fro, isn't it?

SPEAKER_01 19:56

So yeah, what about things that you might not want to admit to yourself? So, you know, we all I wrote something in my um in my email this week, actually, that I did that I sent yesterday about this exact thing, and I posed a question to my newsletter kind of readers, and I said, I can't even remember like in this moment what the question was, but sort of I said in there, not the polished version, not the version you would tell anybody else, the secret version that is just in here. I'm not interested in anything else, I don't want you to tell me. I just want you to be honest for probably the first time in some time. So is that the version that you see? The unfiltered do you see what I mean?

SPEAKER_00 20:43

Like you see both because you've got both hands, so you've got your everyday persona, and then you've got the real one underneath, but then you see how they interact. So, like, so if you're like for me, I still have massive feelings of like imposter syndrome. Like, oh my god, who am I to be talking about this? Like, I'm just Michelle, like what's this? Actually, it's really important, and there's someone needs

Live Reading Setup

SPEAKER_00 21:05

to do it, so why shouldn't it be me? So I have to like fight with myself a little bit. So you kind of have to, yeah, with Palmistry, you kind of see both and they interact. So I think they in in in us permanently, they actually interact all the while. It's just how you override feelings, and it's almost like they say, name your brain, and then you can say, not today. Mine's called Chloe. Not today, Chloe. Yeah, no, I haven't got time for this. I need to focus on this today. We'll have that conversation later. So it's about being able to again, it's about listening, isn't it? And it's about listening to your trust and intuition and go, which we which is really alien to a huge amount of people because we outsource, we listen to everybody else, and like we we're all I I'm guilty of it. Something happens, you go, Oh, I need to phone my friend, I need to find out what they think. Am I doing the right thing? But actually, deep down, you already know. We already know everything because we already know who we are deep down. We just don't want to believe it, see it, trust it, acknowledge it, or love it more importantly. We don't want to love that person in there because of conditioning, outside conditioning, all those sorts of things. So it is a little bit about bringing you back to self. And then from that, so I said, I'm so part of what I say is like nobody's here to save you.

Element Types And Traits Revealed

SPEAKER_00 22:20

No one's coming to save you. No one. So what I do is I take, I look at you, I take that power from you, I look at it, put it firmly back in your hands, and then I go, here you go, go save yourself in whichever way you want to do. Go and live your life in the way you want. Have the awkward conversations, you know, tell people you've had enough. Walk away from things, or bring people in or energy and things in that actually excite you and give you joy and fun and love and all of those things. It all has to start with you and you listen in. But yeah, for me, it's everything, everything is on show at all times.

SPEAKER_01 22:55

So shall we show people how this works? Let's have a go. So just as a caveat, so everybody knows. You've not seen my hands before. I haven't, no, not clue. And I've not said I don't, I mean, genuinely, I've got no idea, no idea what you are going to look at or do. So every reaction. I'm a bit scared. I'm a bit scared. Yeah, so every every everything from here on in is just like as it is, and it's gonna be, and I will be brutally honest, I will tell you whether or not it's right.

SPEAKER_00 23:28

So no, nobody's right 100% of the time either, but generally it's pretty, this is really it's actually really scientific. So, you know, this is decades and decades and decades and decades of proper scientific research. So, and they will match. So, and actually, what it is is a big thing, is it's actually pattern recognition. So, and actually, the more I'm doing it, I'm even picking up on things that I've not been taught because I read so many people's hands. There's things that even I see that my teachers haven't told me. So it's a constant learning. But yes.

SPEAKER_01 23:57

I love that where you find, um, and again, this is sort of something that I talk about and write about and all these things all the time, is that that that join between the spiritual woo and which actually is just historical, let's be honest, because all of these things kind of came into an existence way before we had technology and way before a time where we thought we knew better. Yeah, or you know, technology knew better. But combined with science, combined with you know, where where you actually get research and proof and where those two things join is like my full geek mode. Like I just get excited about that. So, yeah, I'm excited. So tell me what to do.

SPEAKER_00 24:38

If you just pop pop your hands up in front of them, both up, pull them back a little bit, just a little bit more. That's it. And which hand do you write with? My right hand. Okay. Right hand. Oh, have you got any arthritis or anything in your hands or fingers? Okay, so they're all natural bends. Lovely old job. Yeah, they've got very bendy middle fingers, haven't I? So you um you are like two different people. So outwardly, and actually, I think you've become you've become a lot stronger, I would say. You're becoming a lot stronger outwardly, but also you're trying to, you're almost quite playful with it, I would say. You're finding a bit more joy, a bit more happiness, because I think you're more aligned with what you want to do. So you are like a fire, water hand cross. So fire-handed people are the most, they're like your leaders, your entrepreneurs, hate the cold, all of that sort of stuff. Oh, hate the cold. So your natural grounding state in the everyday would be something like getting in a hot bath, hot shower, especially with the water aspect as well. Hot bath, hot shower, under a blanket duvet in front of a fire, hot holidays perfect for

Stress Patterns And Grounding

SPEAKER_00 25:45

you. That's your in your everyday, so your natural leaders can sometimes be a little bit competitive as well. Like you need to be right sometimes and be a little bit stubborn with it, and maybe say things before you think about it, and then go, oh, probably shouldn't have done, but then you do. Whereas your other hand, so the real you, you're actually hand, you're actually an air hand. So air-handed people are the big, big thinkers. So you have big ideas, big thoughts, you love big words and beautiful sentences and journal, maybe journaling and writing and all of those, even writing books and all that sort of stuff. But what it also means is you love space. So potentially when you're I I also think sometimes in the everyday, if you're feeling a little bit stressed, you might potentially mask things with humor a little bit as well. Yes. You'll try and laugh off the seriousness of things with the but with an air hand. So if you are feeling really stressed, your left hand is going to overtake. So your deep subconscious, real you is going to go, hang on, I need to come out and tell you what's really happening with me. So what you probably will do is maybe not talk as much because I can see you're an amazing communicator in the everyday. But you might what you might do is almost hide a little bit, and I can see you do because your fingers curled in, and you won't say what you need to say, and you almost need to remove yourself from the situation to gather your thoughts, and you will want to, and that might be going for a walk, or you'll have to go outside or get the air or be somewhere where there's not a lot of noise, and you just need to sit and maybe write and journal and just think about stuff, but it means you don't also say necessarily what you need to say, whereas in the everyday you'll just say stuff and you'll be like, Oh, I need this and that. But underneath you don't, you kind of hide a little bit because you need to think about things, and it also means that in terms of friendship groups and people around you, it actually takes a lot for you to trust people. I can't really this is just crazy. Carry on, not in the best way, yeah. It will take quite a lot for you to trust people because actually your inner sanctum of people, and this goes back to the real you, your passive hand, is you only have like two, three, maybe four people maximum that you absolutely trust. And then even then, you might struggle to really tell them everything because you you will not doubt, but you won't say what you need to say. That is also like, yeah, so that's sort of like your basic totality the everyday heat is your brand heat and maybe water. So hot water, if you're feeling really stressed, because you're I think you're trying to find a bit more fun in the everyday at the moment as well. So you want a bit more fun and joy and funny, yeah. But you've got this fiery edge. So if you if you're feeling really stressed, go run your hands under a hot tap. I know that sounds really bizarre, but if you can touch water, hear it in the everyday, it makes you calm, it grinds you

Confidence, Direction And Fingerprints

SPEAKER_00 28:20

naturally. If you're feeling really stressed, it's space, it's calm, it's peace, being outside, feel the wind in your hair, that will ground you, and you will do both of those things without even thinking about it. Yes, I do. This is insane.

SPEAKER_01 28:34

So in Feng Shui, I am my element, my personal element, my Chinese medicine element is fire. There you go. And my like I am happiest, happiest near water. Like, I have to be near water, you know, at the sea, on the river, I don't care. Get me near the water. Hate the cold. Yes. That was that side, wasn't it? Yeah, this side trust is such it's probably the biggest thing for me.

SPEAKER_00 29:06

I don't trust people. And there's probably there's something, I can't really see your lines too well, but there's probably something in there on your fingers. So you uh I would say now you definitely don't like people telling you what to do in the everyday, and you are self-employed, yeah, jobs and all of that. Pop them back up for me. So normally I would do it down the way, but I can't see them. Yeah, pop them back a little tiny bit for me. See, you know who you are, you absolutely know who you are. But I do think, especially underneath, because you've got these little bends, especially in your index finger, that you never notice that. Yeah, so not not so much outwardly, but especially when you're a bit stressed, you have a real crisis of confidence. Yes, and you don't acknowledge or love yourself in the way that you should. And you maybe don't speak too kindly to yourself, and you're really harsh on yourself, but you shouldn't be, because actually you do know who you are, but you won't say what you need, which will then make you feel better about yourself. So it will go it, yeah. They kind of interest. So then so can you see exactly like what that is? So when you're stressed, the real you comes out. So when you say, Can you see two sides? Absolutely, I can. They interact with each other all the while. That's really, really, really, really basic as well. I haven't got any, I haven't looked at lines or thing, put them back up. Let me have a quick look. That's why that's wild. Like my brain, my brain is blowing. Yeah, are your hands nice and relaxed? Relax your hands. Yeah, so I can just see. Okay, in terms of direction and where you're going in life, you know where you want to go, but you're holding off. You're not going, you're not doing exactly what you want. You're you're questioning something because you're direct, you're holding your direction in. You're not fully, you're not going, you're not giving it what you need to do. You can do you know you're capable of so much more and bigger things, but you're not put you're not you're not showing up, you're not showing showing yourself in the bigger picture. So you definitely can and direction it will go. That's just basic, and then you then because obviously then you go into lines, and then that can completely change an entire reading, and then you look at the fingerprints, and then that because then depending on what fingerprint you've got on

Rings, Symbols And Subtle Shifts

SPEAKER_00 31:10

your hand, there's five types of fingerprints only, and there's obviously the rarest one. So if you've got a rare one on it, depending on what finger, that'll completely change who you are as a person as well, and that will be intrinsic to you, so it will never change. So that finger, so no matter what you try and do and change and how you become, it will always pull you back because it's from there from conception, depending on what that finger is as well.

SPEAKER_01 31:32

My brain is actually like proper properly blown in a good way, properly blown, yeah, yeah, because you know, there is definitely outwardly on my because as and I say this, and I'm really open about this with everybody all the time, is that I do this job and I have a woo job, but I am the world's biggest skeptic. Like, I can't get an email from somebody or anything from anybody without going, what do you want me to buy? Like, do you know what I mean? I'm in life, I am a skeptic.

SPEAKER_00 32:07

Again, because and I don't trust people, I don't trust like nothing. Not a bad thing, it's protection. So yeah. Oh, I forgot to say as well that dependent on ring placement, other than wedding rings, which we discount, dependent on what ring, what colour, what colour metal you wear, stones you wear, and dependent on what finger it is, it can either protect and and repel or it can bring forward everything that you need as well. So if someone, if you need someone, I was speaking to someone a few days ago who I'd read them and I said, You need to take that off because you're trying to you're repelling everything that you're looking for. She took it off, she messaged me and she went, Oh my god, everything's happened since I took that ring off. I went, Yeah, because you're now welcoming everything in. So there's all that as well. That's a whole other thing as well. So I can tell people to move things around, and that's really interesting too.

SPEAKER_01 32:56

That's so cool. I'm I'm shooketh, I think is

How To Work With Michelle

SPEAKER_01 33:00

the um isn't that what the young'uns say these?

SPEAKER_00 33:02

I am shooketh. I am shooketh, yes, absolutely. I'm well I'm really I'm good, I'm glad. That's the kind of impact I want, and it's quick.

SPEAKER_01 33:09

Yeah, that's that's I don't make it like people that know me in real life, 3D world, they know that I do not trust people. You know, they know that I, as you absolutely say, there are a handful of people that I trust in my sort of world, and even then, and even then, you know, there's always a bit of me that goes, but we'll be and there's potentially something that's deep in there, deep in your subconscious that maybe you don't even necessarily think about or have thought about that's what's causing that, that's what's pulling that up, and it will there's no way that you would have known that about me. Like from from sitting here doing this, and from all of the things that you can find about me online, yeah, you could have listened to every I mean you wouldn't have had the time, but you could have you could have listened to every single email. Do you know what I mean? You could have gone back through back through every single social media post, and I probably haven't talked about that.

SPEAKER_00 34:06

So, and we don't know each other. No, we don't. This is the first time we've seen each other in person. And to be honest with you, when I would do it, I don't also, because especially if I know I'm gonna be doing reads and stuff, I don't want to look into people other than like generally what you do, which is brilliant, because it's also it's that energy thing, it's an alignment thing as well. But I also don't want to know people go, Oh do you wait? Don't tell me anything. I can quite completely say I can go in anywhere and I can read anybody, yeah. And that's but that's taken years and years of obviously practice and honing my skills and and all that sort of thing. And obviously, you can get it wrong as well. I'm not nobody is perfect, but again, it's pattern recognition, but it's also you I am intuitive as well. The more you do this like yourself, the more intuitive you become, the and you can pick up on things, but the trusting is because it's actually in your hands and it's something that you can physically see. So let's talk about what you actually do.

SPEAKER_01 34:58

So you your how how can people work with you? So you offer readings, yes, and then from those readings, of which that was a very sort of basic level of kind of you they so the in what am I trying to say? So the information

Final Insights And Listener Invite

SPEAKER_01 35:15

that they receive in that session, it like it is like a stepping stone, is that right?

SPEAKER_00 35:20

So they can then choose give them guidance on where what to do. So people um I say so normally it starts from a place of intrigue and then they go, Oh my god, this is much deeper than I thought. And then it it comes, they go, Well, how what do I do next? So I'm gonna have to say, Well, you can go away and I can give you a few little pointers and then work on it, and then come and see me again in like six months, and we can have a look and see if anything's changed if you want to, or come and work with me either one-to-one, or I can do a group, like can I just do group coaching? Come and work with me. But on my 12-week, I've got a 12-week like signature course, which is Peep with Michelle, and we work through everything. But what the joy of it is like normal with normal everyday coaching, what people were classed as coaching, you have to normally work for a month to even start to try and even get to the start point of where the problems are. You do that to me, you give me a palm print, I automatically know where your problem where where the issues are, and I can go, okay, we've pinpointed this, this, and this. What do you want to work on first? So it kind of eradicates about a month's worth of talking, basically, because I see you, but the joy of it is I also see you just as you are.

SPEAKER_02 36:26

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 36:26

So you haven't got to get through those layers of need to go, and actually, and it's not always about having to go back and rehashing the same thing over and over and over and over again. It's actually dealing with what you have dealt with and not parking it because you don't, but actually it becomes part, it's intrinsic to you, it's making you who you are. So it's like an acceptance, acknowledgement, and then using that to then move on to that next step. So we go through like the whole process of what is peep. So it's like we go to a medication, empowerment, all of that sort of stuff. You then get physical proof on the hands of a subconscious mindset shift. So you will physically see yourself changing, becoming whoever you want to be in real time.

SPEAKER_01 37:04

So people can find you on Instagram at Michelle McKinley. Yep, that's it. Yep. At Michelle McKinley. I'll put the your link into the show notes below the episode. Yeah. Is there anything else you want to? Is there anything else that you thought I must tell people this about Palmistry? Oh god, that's fun.

SPEAKER_00 37:28

I just what do I want to tell people? I just want to tell people that you know, don't believe what everybody else says. Listen to yourselves, look at your hands. Like literally look at them and go, Oh my god, my life is in here. This is me. So why am I not listening to me? So I want people to realize how wonderful they are, how powerful they are, and how brilliant life can be if you truly, truly listen to yourself and lead yourself. And you can do that through the palm of your hands when they say your life is in your hands, it is so trust it.

SPEAKER_01 38:01

So cool. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. It's blown my brain. Blown my brain. And when you have somebody who works in the world of energy that gets their brain blown every day, that's hard to do. That is hard to do. It's so, so cool. So thank you so much, Michelle. I would suggest that everybody who listens to this goes over to Instagram and and follows Michelle. Your links for being able to book a session are on your Instagram.

SPEAKER_00 38:26

Yeah, there is one there. But if as I said at the moment, I'm literally in the process of doing a whole new website. So they've only got one basic link. But if it's anything, just message me and then we can go from there as well.

SPEAKER_01 38:36

So I imagine that there's going to be quite a few people who listen to
