Messages from the Beyond, An Angel Told Me So - Michael McAdams

In this heartfelt and spiritually rich episode of Soul Elevation, I’m joined by Michael McAdams, spiritual seeker and author of An Angel Told Me So. Together we explore how each of us can receive authentic spirit messages and how those messages can guide, protect, and evolve us on our soul path.
Michael’s work is deeply inspired by his mother, Wilma Jean Jones, who received over 22 years of transmissions from spirit teachers—profound messages filled with love, wisdom, and actionable insight. In our conversation, we talk about the difference between thoughts and true spiritual downloads, how to test and discern the source of guidance, and why these teachings feel universally personal for every reader.
What You'll Discover in This Episode
ποΈ How to distinguish between your own thoughts and incoming spirit guidance
π Real channeled messages from spirit teachers—full of love, clarity, and deep spiritual truth
π How to invite and receive direction from angels or spiritual teachers (even if you don’t think you’re intuitive)
π The remarkable story of Michael’s mother, Wilma, who took dictation from spirit using an electric typewriter over two decades
π Why free will plays a pivotal role in your spiritual communication—and how to consciously choose to receive more
π A channeled response Michael received when asking what makes his material unique—straight from spirit
The Power of Spirit Teachers
Michael shares that what some call angels, others might call spirit guides or teachers. It’s not about the label—it’s about the frequency of wisdom that arrives.
“We are here for you—as close as your heartbeat.”
Whether you call them angels or guides, these spiritual beings are ready to support you in real time. The teachings that Wilma received were not automatic writing or trance channeling; they were received word by word, with full consciousness, typed as divine dictation. Some messages are signed “Your Loving Guide,” others “Your Spiritual Teacher,” or “Your Spirit Brothers.”
These aren’t vague affirmations. They are deep transmissions that stir the soul and seem written just for you.

You Are Receiving Spirit Messages—Here’s How to Notice
π¬οΈ Learn the feel of incoming spirit guidance vs. self-generated thoughts
π§π½ Establish a mental sanctuary—call in protection and set the intention to receive only guidance in the highest light
π§© Start with small things: that inner voice nudging you to slow down or take a different route
π Ask questions and stay curious: “Who are the others here?” can open up an entire new dimension of connection
π Journal or type out what flows in—especially when it feels wiser or more loving than your own current mindset
“Test the spirits—they don’t mind taking a quiz.”
A Soul Map for the Hungry Seeker
Michael reminds us that if your soul is hungry, you will be fed. Spirit meets your openness with loving, precise guidance. If you are a sincere seeker, teachers will appear—sometimes through books, podcasts, synchronicities, or even messages from loved ones who have crossed over.
The book An Angel Told Me So is not just a collection of messages, it’s a mirror. Michael invites you to read each one twice: once as written to his mother or himself, and again as if it’s being addressed directly to you. Every reader reports feeling seen and supported.
