The Debbie Nigro Show

As heard on The Debbie Nigro Show Sometimes it really helps to just talk to other caring people about whatever you’re going through. Now there’s a place where you can. I had a talk with Scott Kelsey, the incredibly resilient Founder & CEO of Shareapy—about his groundbreaking wellness platform born from personal tragedy and built to foster connection, healing, and personal growth. After a life-altering fall down a staircase left him with a traumatic brain injury, Scott found himself forced to hit pause—and reflect. "I had to isolate, be in a dark room, and let my brain...

As heard on The Debbie Nigro Show There's a hot new real estate migration trend picking up steam among Northeasterners and former Floridians: they’re becoming “Halfbacks”—people who moved to Florida, found it a little too much (too hot, too humid, too everything), and are now settling halfway back up the East Coast. Their happy medium? Coastal North Carolina. On The Debbie Nigro Show, I got the inside scoop from Jason Faulkner, General Manager of Kingfish Bay Development in Calabash, NC—one of the fastest-growing destinations for these lifestyle-minded movers that's just minutes...

I’ve had some very interesting experiences with psychics and psychic mediums throughout my life.

I’m always open-minded and do believe that some on this planet can see farther than the eye can see.

On more than one occasion, I’ve had a psychic contact me out of the blue for one reason or another. (vs me asking them to contact someone. LOL)

I probably haven’t seen Francine Tesler in over 20 years.

She’s a psychic medium and medical intuitive, best known as the psychic, for people who don't usually go to psychics. She’s been making psychic predictions since she was 6 years old. She would see those that had passed on and shock everyone with her accuracy.

 Something recently came into her head to call ME. So naturally she got in touch.

I was happy to hear from her as I remember having great affection for her. I Invited her to stop by the radio show to speak to a story I just read on Medium.com (which is not a site for Mediums rather a medium for writers to share their work with 100 million readers).

The story “Predictions for 2024 By Celebrity Psychics” said…” The year 2024 will be a time of awakening and alignment as more people will tune into their intuition and follow their soul’s purpose. This will create a positive ripple effect in the world, as people will be more authentic, compassionate, and creative.”

I’m all for anything positive on this planet and I have in fact noticed more people lately trying to find their true purpose.

So Francine came to the studio and I asked her one of my  signature questions I often ask guests on my show.

“How Does Your Head Work Inside?”.

Francine said, “I'm originally an artist by trade and I get images that like a slideshow and fragments and I hear things in my head. Yeah, but this week, my hair stands up on my arms. And it was like, you have to call Debbie. And I'm like, you know, reach out to her and I didn't have your number. And that's why I sent you the email and blah, blah, blah.”

"Why do you think you thought of me?", I asked her.

“I think we're meant to be connected again”.

I myself have been noticing a trend picking up since Covid, where people are now wanting to reconnect more. Are you seeing a trend in that I asked her? 

“Yes. More happening with each month that passes this year”.

“More spirituality. People are starting to listen. I'm teaching. When I do my readings or when I do my message circles or my open galleries, I do teach and explain to people that they have to listen to their voice because everyone is psychic to some point.”

 

Being a psychic ain’t easy...

“You know I actually didn't know I was a medium until I had already been doing this probably for at least 10 years because I didn't know the word for it  all those years ago. I've been doing this now full-time 40 years. When I first started, it wasn't acceptable and people used to call me Madame Zaza or Grandma Strega, you know, Grandma Witch, and it was a really difficult time.”

“But you know what? I'm an artist. I found my own thing and I knew that I was getting these images and hearing things and seeing things and there was a reason. So I always gave people the messages. Now as I'm older, I deliver them a little bit more tactfully and make them more edible because I have a good sense of humor.”

“Everyone calls it the psychic Tourette's. I go into the grocery store and I will walk over to people and say, look, I don't want to bother you. I'm a psychic medium, blah, blah, blah. I got an impression. I'm told to tell you this. And then they look around for cameras. But I try to help people and give a message.”

 

I've always noticed people are a little weird when they're around psychics. All they want to know is, what a psychic knows about them? They always want to talk about it. But most people don’t want to hear any bad stuff. I wondered how that has affected Francine’s personal life. 

“Do you have a personal life?”, I asked her.

“Not really. As far as my personal life goes, most guys are scared of it. They don't even want to shake my hands believe it or not and you know either they come in and they try to challenge me to see what I know. You know I'm saying. but it's hard when it comes to yourself. It's hard to be objective. You know you know it is what it is.”

BUT, professionally men aren’t scared of Francine at all. She has a lot of male clients that come to her for business consultations. Mostly by phone and Zoom.

“Are you a business psychic?” I asked her, because I often joke that I'm a business psychic. LOL. I'm just highly intuitive when it comes to business. I know where the matches are. I know what people should do. I'm like, what do you mean you haven't thought of that? I see opportunities for people, and I have some fun with that skill as a consultant.

Yes, Francine does help many businesses with her skills as a psychic. She’s also a medium, and a medical intuitive. She’s currently re-branding herself and her website.

It’s probably why she thought of me. She knows I love helping people re-think new opportunities for themselves.

Call Francine if you need her. Or who knows, she might call you. LOL

Meet Francine here on the podcast of our live conversation from The Debbie Nigro Show.
