My name is Susanne Wilson. I am known as the Carefree Medium mainly because I live and work in Carefree, Arizona. I believe that no matter what happens, any of us has the potential to feel carefree. This is because the peace that surpasses understanding is always available, when we make inner peace our priority.
I am often asked “When did you first know that you are a medium?” I knew I was different as soon as I started school at age five in the Head Start program. Head Start is a federally funded program to help promote school readiness for low income children. My five-year-old self was terrified during those first weeks at school. I saw spirit lights, colors and faces around the teacher and my classmates. One day before school started, I hid in the back of the classroom behind a big rocking chair toy that was turned upside down and leaned against the back wall. The teacher marked me as being absent that day, until I emerged from my hiding place at snack time. I must have been hungry.
My grandfather was a Protestant minister and mediumistic himself. He often talked with me in a comforting way about spirit. Eventually I stopped being afraid. I learned it was better to hide my abilities. When I was 14 years old, my grandfather’s spirit visited me immediately after he passed. No one in our home had yet been notified of his passing. It was late and I was in bed. My grandfather awakened me. Smiling, he held out his hands and we danced elegantly as we had many times. He explained that God had called him home. He told me, “You are going to be all right.” Then he disappeared and I cried. A moment later I heard the phone in the kitchen ring several times, followed by my mother answering it and then sobbing. She had just been told on the phone that her father (my grandfather) had passed unexpectedly at age 56.
As an adult I spent many years focused on living a so-called normal life. I built a successful career and made a good living. I earned my bachelor’s and master’s degrees from traditional universities, found my life partner, Carl whom I married in 1987. From the early 1990s, I was secretly studying psychic development and doing mini readings for friends and acquaintances.
I often say that mediumship is a calling, not a choice. I did not choose to work as a professional medium. In 2007 the universe gave me a wake-up call that literally took my breath away. I had an allergic reaction known as anaphylaxis. I was surrounded by white light. I heard beautiful spirit music that washed waves of peace through me. I felt the arms of my grandfather enfolding me. I heard a voice say that I had to go back and start my work. My near death experience was the one minute that changed my life. I found my calling.
I provide readings and teach Reiki and intuition development classes and private lessons. Clients always want to meet their spirit guides during an intuition lesson, and thus I developed and fine tuned a meditation designed for meeting your spirit guide. While conducting these meditations, I found to my surprise that more than guides were showing up for my clients. They were also connecting with their loved ones in the afterlife. The first few times this happened during my guided meditation, I thought it was because loved ones can sometimes act as helper guides. They show up in our lives at just the right time. But it started happening over and over until finally I realized: Spirit wants me to teach people how to make their own direct connection with the afterlife. Today I teach visualizations and methods to “make a date” to connect with your loved one in the afterlife. I feel that all people have the potential to make this direct connection.

Children in the Afterlife
My name is Elizabeth Veney Boisson. I am a wife, mother of three children and formerly a university lecturer. I am also president and co-founder of an international grief support organization, Helping Parents Heal.
On October 20, 2009, my son Morgan died at the Base Camp of Mount Everest in Tibet. It was the most devastating day of my life but at the same time it was the moment that I realized that love never dies.
I was able to speak to his roommate by cell phone and asked him to put the phone to Morgan’s ear. He had stopped breathing and was undergoing CPR. I told him that we loved him, not to be afraid, and that we were very proud of him. At the exact instant that Morgan stopped breathing, I felt him with me, hugging me from the inside. It was a warm, calming feeling that washed through me. I realized that he was comforting me and that he wanted me to know that he would always be with me. Before Morgan died, I did not believe that it would be possible to carry on without one of my children. However, I realized in an instant that I had to carry on, not only for my two daughters who needed me, but more importantly for Morgan, whose only wish is to see us happy. I knew we had to live and thrive for him.
My strongest desire after his death was to somehow communicate with him. I didn’t know how this would be possible—I had never been to a psychic medium. Morgan took matters into his own hands. I had been practicing yoga at a studio for years, and Morgan had sometimes gone with me. Angie, the owner of the studio, decided in January 2010 to interview a psychic medium who had recently moved to the area and was looking for rental space. Angie’s way of evaluating the psychic medium, Susanne Wilson, was to ask Susanne to “read“ a photo of my kids included in our annual Christmas card. She provided no other information to Susanne.
Susanne connected with my son, communicating his personality and mannerisms. Susanne gave Angie numerous validations—including details that were not public knowledge and not known to Angie (who diligently wrote everything down). I will share a few highlights. Susanne said a young man showed her a big teddy bear and bottle of Captain Morgan. My son’s name is Morgan and we affectionately call him Big Bear. We have a dog named Captain, Morgan’s second nickname. Susanne saw Morgan shouting through a megaphone that he was OKAY—very significant because Morgan was a cheerleader at the University of Arizona and his megaphone was at his service. Susanne saw him on a mountain, lying on his back. She saw a black box at his ear; that he had listened intently but had been unable to speak. He told Susanne to say, “Mom, I heard everything you said and I love you back.” I was comforted to know Morgan had heard me when the phone was held to his ear.
Susanne further told Angie that my son and his two roommates were a “band of three“; that they were like brothers. Although Morgan was close to all the students who helplessly watched him die that morning, his two roommates were especially important to him. Colin and Matt accompanied Morgan’s body to Lhasa and waited with him until my husband was able to finally get a visa to enter Tibet six days later. Perhaps most stunning—Susanne told Angie that we would receive a special rock from the place that Morgan died and she sketched the rock. We made no mention of this detail to anyone. Several months later Colin delivered Morgan’s Rock upon his return from China, exactly as Susanne had said.
Within a month after Morgan died I founded a local parents’ support group and an Internet site to honor our children. A few months later I had my own reading with Susanne in which more validations came through, including that Morgan and I would work together to help parents connect with their deceased children in the Afterlife. I later met Mark Ireland through Susanne and two years later with the help of several other bereaved parents, we co-founded Helping Parents Heal (HPH), which currently has 15 chapters in the US and one in Canada.
Susanne has spoken at our HPH Scottsdale meetings on three occasions. The most recent occasion was last October. Susanne talked about the methods that anyone could use to make his own direct connection to a loved one in the afterlife. She then gently led our group through a 20-minute guided meditation to make the connection. Afterwards many attendees reported excellent results, as they were able to see their children and feel their presence. Unfortunately I was preoccupied that day and found myself frustrated as I was unable to meditate.
Recently Susanne invited me to experience a one-on-one guided meditation with her. I am overjoyed to say that I easily connected with my son, Morgan. Susanne led me through the steps to meet with Morgan at our favorite place; on our boat in the middle of Bartlett Lake. I could feel myself sink down into the seat on the boat as I was seated directly across from Morgan. I could feel the heat of the Arizona summer sun and smell suntan lotion and marshy water. The boat quietly bobbed as we were anchored in the ‘no-wake’ zone. I could feel Morgan hug me from the inside and I could clearly see his laughing eyes. He is doing so well and participates with us in every aspect of our lives. The meditation brought tears of joy to my eyes. I was sad to leave Morgan but I now know that it is possible to connect with him whenever I want to using Susanne’s method.
I know in my heart that Morgan is working diligently in the afterlife to help children get messages through to their parents. I am incredibly proud of him.
Finding My Soul Mate Again
My name is Danielle. My journey led to Susanne’s office in October 2012, eight months after my husband died by suicide. Before he died we had separated to work on our marital issues, and he took his life six months later. Early in our relationship he had asked me what I thought about suicide, and he even made comments that if I ever left him he would “die.” He denied being suicidal or that he would die by suicide, but his life was reckless, as to die accidentally.
When he died I felt at peace that he was no longer suffering, but I could smell him strongly and had several vivid dream visits. There were many “signs” that I hoped were signs, but I also worried they were only wishful thinking. I searched for a connection and finally found Susanne’s website. When I saw her photograph I felt that I knew her, and on my first visit to her office she asked if we had met before.
Thomas came through with vigor, strength, a touch of arrogance, and his awesome sense of humor, just as he would enter any room while on the Earthly plane. His validation through Susanne could not have been more clear with specific information that no one, especially Susanne would have ever known about the two of us. There was a specific name he called himself privately, there were his family members in spirit with him, there were comments about things I have done, privately, that he relayed to Susanne, he answered questions I had for him, he provided family information, and he spoke of memories of our dogs. He validated the signs I had received and now we use them to communicate. My Thomas is very much still alive!
Susanne has guided me into deep meditations and has provided the knowledge and practice of the tools I needed to communicate with spirit, and specifically with my Thomas. I have invited him to dreams, but I admit I struggle to remember the details of dreams. Therefore, I have gone on several “dates” with my husband in meditation. Some have been in the presence of Susanne so that I could receive immediate validation, but several have been done alone in the privacy of my home. It is an amazing experience to travel and spend time with the love of my life. The memories of my meditative journeys are as alive in my memory as any Earthly interaction I have encountered, but filled with unconditional love and acceptance. Thank you, Susanne. You have made an enormous difference in my life, and I believe that joy cascades down the river of my spirit to touch and nourish those around me. As a nurse, I have become more spiritual in my care. As a mother of two beautiful sons, I am gentle and loving with their needs. Through Thomas, I have gained more insight into what happens when we “die” and am no longer fear life. My children have seen a change in my approach to life, and they are doing the same. My youngest son struggled the most with the loss of his step-father, and through a reading with Susanne, he was reunited with Thomas and his grandparents.
As I work with Susanne to develop my intuitive abilities, Thomas usually makes a visit and offers insight. He loves to answer questions, and most importantly, he kisses my cheek while teasing me the way he always did. I miss him dearly, yet we have a bond beyond anything I could have imagined. Since there is no death, there cannot be “til death do us part.”
