Friends

This page contains links and information on the people and organizations that I have found to be deeply in concert with the material in Conversations with God, and that I wish to pass on to you.

The data on this page may change from time to time, so if you see something you want to make a note of, it may be best to do so the first time you see it.

I am so grateful that there are so many truly wonderful people now doing the work of helping to transform the lives of people everywhere, and of changing our planet. I invite you to take a look at what these messengers and workers are up to, and see if it feels good to support them, and even to participate with them, in their efforts.

Blessed be,

Neale Donald Walsch

In today's fast-paced, high-tech world it's all too easy to lose personal connections with those we care about or to lose interest in creating new connections - and even at times - to lose touch with our own feelings.

Tara-jenelle Walsch, daughter of Neale Donald Walsch, is the founder and spirit behind Soulebrate, an organization that encourages emotional awareness and deeper, authentic connections with others. She is also an original founder and co-developer of the successful self-help and spiritual Internet company, ConsciousOne.com.

Soulebrate Greeting Cards step up to support expression, healing, growing and celebrating the all of life: the ups and the downs, the achievements and the disappointments, the love and the pain.

The company is environmentally conscious as well as emotionally, and prints all cards in the USA with recycled paper and soy-based ink.

Through her commitment to helping others find freedom through voicing their heart, Tara-jenelle is the writer and designer behind Soulebrate greeting cards, as well as other inspiring products that offer us an opportunity to be and express who we truly are inside.

Originally from Annapolis, Maryland, she earned a Communications degree in 1991 at Towson State University in Baltimore and has since found herself creating uniquely, untraditional ways for humanity to express and experience itself. Tara-jenelle currently lives in Southern California with her dog, Sascha.

"None of the cards today say anything heart-felt, brave or true... and just as I thought the greeting card industry had lost its soul, I found Soulebrate." - Vision Magazine

Annie Sims is a wonderful country and western recording artist who has written many terrific songs, including some based on the messages of Conversations with God.

I am always so grateful when anyone places these messages before the public in another form, and so I, of course, wanted to let you know about Annie's wonderful music. Below is her bio, and a link to her own website. She wrote a song, based on the statement in CwG that says, "If you don't go within, you go without"...

Annie Sims has released two country CDs, "Half the Moon" and "Annie", on Nashville's Aspirion Records label. She received Music Row Magazine's "DisCovery Award" for her single "Eighty Acres of Stars", prompting critic Robert K. Oermann's review: "Her sweet, languid and crystal-clear vocal is perfect for this tuneful romance. Very, very pretty".

Annie has done numerous European tours, performing extensively in the U.K, Ireland, and Scandinavia. She has been the opening act for such notables as Country Music Hall of Fame artists Don Williams and Conway Twitty, and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Gene Pitney, performing in such hallowed halls as the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall, Dublin National Concert Hall and the legendary London Palladium.

The fulfillment and connection that Annie finds in writing and performing songs based on the wisdom found in Conversations With God has led her to focus her energies in the burgeoning Positive/New Thought music genre. In late 2008 Annie founded the first city chapter of the Positive Music Association in Nashville. Their intent is to add to the great works of authors and speakers such as Neale Donald Walsch in helping bring about positive change in the world through their music.

Nancy was my wife when I experienced my Conversations with God more than 30 years ago and when I wrote a book by that title. A co-founder of the CWG foundation and a guiding force behind the earliest meditation sessions at the CWG retreats, her contributions during that period were filled with profound learning and deep connections within the CWG community. Following our eventual separation, Nancy has remained a good friend.

Nancy embarked on a new path after our divorce which led her to becoming a certified hypnotherapist. She says she feels doubly blessed in this second chapter of her life by marrying Robert, a tech wizard. Together, Nancy, with her deep empathic insights and inner work training, and Robert, with his technical expertise and his own spiritual work, are dedicated to helping spiritual coaches confidently use video to share their transformative messages with the world.

If you are a spiritual coach looking to share your message more effectively, but may feel held back by your reluctance to appear on video (even though you probably know it's a powerful tool to spread your message), it may help you to know that these are the challenges that Nancy has not only faced, but now helps others to overcome.

Nancy has created the Inner Light Video Confidence Meditation—a free resource designed to help you shine your inner light on camera. This 15-minute practice is intended to align your energy and foster genuine connections through video, empowering you to convey your message effectively and authentically. There's more info at

Many of the profoundly insightful songs written and performed in recent years by Alanis Morrissette speak right from the heart of Goddess/God. I am so inspired by the way in which Alanis has used her extraordinary gift to expand the consciousness of a planet.

When "Conversations with God for Teens" was ready to be recorded as an audio book, Alanis agreed to read the voice of God. She also wrote the Foreword to the book. I am grateful to her forever for bringing her energies and her support to the wonderful message of CwG.

Since emerging in 1995, Alanis Morissette has become one of the premiere singer/songwriters in contemporary music. Her deeply expressive music and performances have earned the seven-time Grammy Award winner vast critical praise and a dedicated fan base that extends throughout the world.

Alanis' groundbreaking 1995 debut "Jagged Little Pill" created a heavy impact on listeners, revealing a talented young artist with a powerful voice and challenging vision.

In 1998, Alanis returned with the release of "Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie". Upon the album's completion, she said: "I see every recording I've done as a snapshot of that time in my life. I feel fulfilled when I feel the songs were inspired and representative of myself in the moment." "Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie" was a worldwide success, reflecting Alanis' expanded musical artistry.

On October 14th, Morissette released a cover of the 1991 Seal song "Crazy" as the first single from her greatest hits album, "Alanis Morissette: The Collection". "The Collection" was released on November 15, 2005.

Morissette contributed a song entitled "Wunderkind" to the soundtrack of the film The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. The song was nominated for a Golden Globe award for Best Original Song.

In addition to her musical accomplishments, Alanis has also expanded her career by directing videos and acting. At the same time, Alanis has remained at the forefront of humanitarian issues, Internet technology, and music artists' rights.

Allow me to introduce you to a singer-composer named Muriel. She performs under that single name, and a synchronistic meeting with master flautist Tim Wheater produced a connection with me. Tim has performed at a number of my appearances in the United Kingdom, and when I heard Muriel sing I invited her to tour the U.K and Ireland with me in 2007. This gifted singer and musician's music flows from the purest intention. As Muriel says, her songs are "born of a prayer" and I have observed that audiences are nourished by her music, to which they invariably respond with deep emotion, joy, and celebration.

Her trademark song, Sacred, captures the central message of Conversations with God through the musical asking of a stunning question. Muriel has told me that this song became a turning point that defined and refined her intention and capacity to bring forth inspired music to an international audience base. You can hear this beautiful signature piece here.

Muriel now being recognized around the world as an extraordinary emerging talent. She recently completed a second tour of the U.K. and Germany with me, and sang at the premier of the film The Cosmic Ordering Service based upon the book by Barbel Mohr. Barbel described Muriel's music as "simply uplifting and magical." I agree. In my own words...

"The music of Muriel is magic for the Soul. Her lyrics speak of deep and wonderful truth. Her melodies carry us on wings of joy. I have been honored to share the same stage with her, and would be so greatly honored to do so again. Here is a blessing in our midst; a bit of Heaven on Earth."
