Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
It's now time for your weekly detox with Tom Schwartz. Hello. What's up, everybody? Today on the show, we got something special. Max Boyens from VPR. You think you know, but you have no idea. This is The True Life, the first psychic reading from Max Boyens. You remember that iconic phrase? No? MTV Diaries, early 2000s. That was good stuff. Go watch the Christina Aguilera one on YouTube.
Anyways, he was kind enough to bear a little piece of his soul today. And you're coming with us. Have you guys ever had a psychic reading? Can you dig it? We're going to go to a renowned psychic on the Venice Beach boardwalk for a little spiritual check-in with Maximus. See how he's doing. He's surfing right now, which is like his church, his favorite meditation. You know, pure energy.
He's a soul surfer. Hope you stick with it. Surfing's the source. Change your life. Swear to God.
Chapter 2: What insights does the psychic provide for Max Boyens?
Yeah, not for me. Because I'm terrified of the ocean. And sharks. They say the odds of getting bit by a great white are like 1 in 12 million. For me, it's like 50-50. I also believe I'm going to win the lottery every time I play, so I unfortunately have to apply that same logic to get eaten alive by a shark. So I'll probably never be a soul surfer. At least not in the ocean.
Also, if you're listening to this, it's St. Paddy's Day, and you might be a little buzzed. So in your honor, afterwards, we're going to go have a few cold ones, a little decompression session, post-psychic reading, and just check in with Maximus on the Venice Boardwalk. which is iconic, teeming with interesting characters, colorful humans from all around the world. It's electric, strange.
It's vibrant. It's a vibe. Vibrations. Good vibrations. Yeah. Okay, next stop, the Venice Boardwalk. Max's first psychic reading. Here we go. Welcome in. We're here today at Venice Beach. You're at the original Venice Beach Psychic. We've been here since 1978. And today we're going to do a psychic reading for you. Amazing. I've got Max here. How are you doing, everybody? Good. Season 8 has been.
Just kidding, just kidding. Max, what are you looking to get out of this session today? Just maybe some clarity. You know, life's been a little weird these past couple years, you know, and I've gone through a lot of different jobs. I don't want you to go too much into any. Okay. And then afterwards, you could say what you was looking for and what we answered and what we did. Perfect, I love that.
That actually sounds great. Because I don't want to know too much.

Chapter 3: What are Max's feelings about his past relationships?
Okay, cool, cool, cool. Just for someone who's never gotten a psychic reading, can you explain what it is? Yeah, so a psychic reading is going to be with our tarot card ratings. It's also going to give you a crystal that you're going to be holding that I feel is adjusted to your energy. It's going to tell you about your past, present, future.
It might come up with past lives, if you had any past lives. It's going to talk about your aura, your chakra, your energy. It's going to talk about love, family, career. It's going to talk about your future and where you're meant to be and what the universe is telling you to focus on as of now. I love that. That sounds amazing. I'm a little nervous, but I'm excited at the same time.
Max, is this your first psychic reading? It is my first. All this. I've got my chakras aligned before, but I've never done this. So you can hold this crystal. Before we start, I want to take two deep breaths in. And one more, just like that. And then I want you to think of your subjects. If you're thinking about anybody, think about them while I mix. And you're going to tell me when to stop.
You can stop. And you're going to pick the deck you want. Your date of birth. April 6th. And subjects or go with the flow? Whatever I see, tell you. I think whatever you see, tell me. Perfect. So, first of all, energy-wise, it says this is meant to be a celebration year. New beginnings, new chapters. Energy just says you had to release a lot before next month.
It said you had to release a lot and let go.

Chapter 4: How does Max plan to focus on his career and business?
The last two years feels like...
you're taking one step forward two steps backwards one step forward two steps backwards it's like you keep getting close to where you need to be at but then there's some blocks in the way energy that stops you and you kind of get side distracted it's like energy wise you get distracted in life you know what you need to do but you're so stubborn you go against your own self and it's like energy wise you kind of hold on to people longer than you should have yeah
So it says last year and this year was all about releasing and letting go. So last year we had the snake energy and it felt like you did a lot of shedding, release and letting go and kind of focus on yourself and what you need to be at and what's your next steps in life. Yeah, just for clarity, everyone listening, the Venice boardwalk is a wild time. Highly suggest coming here.
So energy wise, it says that getting out of two different situations at the moment, are you coming out of a relationship? Yeah, like as of January. Yeah. So it's coming out of two different situations. It says one is a relationship, but also one is a new opening for career. So transition into your career base. Yeah.
It says you're meant to be in higher positions, meant to be giving orders, not taking orders. People are supposed to know who you are, your name and your face, but being more creative, meant to have two businesses of your own. What are you doing? I'm working on starting my own business right now.
It's just been really difficult raising money and getting everything started, getting the right people involved. It's hard. And so it says there's meant to be celebrations for that and says you had to kind of disconnect from relationships to focus on your business, to focus on your career pace and where you're going.
Like I said, it was time to kind of release and shed some energy so you could focus. I don't feel like you was ready for it six months ago. So it says your energy is fully ready for this new beginning, a new chapter. And I do feel like you're meant to meet somebody within this next eight weeks that says good. That's going to be helping you grow in the job and the career. But confidence is key.
So when you're talking about it, you need to have faith in yourself, confidence in yourself. Because sometimes when you're talking about it, it's like you're kind of really in it. And then you kind of stop and you take a step back. Yeah. I think I get a little discouraged sometimes. And this is what it says.
It's like when they ask you certain questions, you get discouraged, but says staying confident. If you're confident and believe in it, other people believe in it as well. But you have to be the first one to believe in it. And just says sleep also got better lately. Sleep hasn't been good for February. March feels better. I was just sleeping.

Chapter 5: What does the psychic say about Max's future love life?
Every day and I never do that But this month I've been sleeping pretty well. Yeah, I felt like last month energy was up Yeah, very very up like kind of like heart beating fast all the time. It was very odd Yeah, it says there was a little bit of anxiety a little stress and this month was a lot calmer things are happening but says manifesting It's time to start manifesting.
It's time to really put your energy out there and ask the universe for what you want. But it also says energy-wise, it says it's time to get back to spiritual energy. So when you're surfing, meditate. Be out there, meditate, talk to the universe. It says you have a spiritual side to you. Yeah. And it feels like you see things happening before it happens. You know when something's going to happen.
So listen to those intuitions and trust it. But patience. The universe is telling you have patience. Things might not have happened on your timing, but it's going to happen in the right timing. So trust where the universe is taking you. Trust where the energy is taking you. The devil card is there. There was a little bit of envy and jealousy. So keep things private.
Everyone don't need to know everything going on. Sometimes when you share too much, it goes backwards. So be careful what you share. Right now it says keeping things private. Taking back a chance of enjoying life, having fun, and getting out. Don't become a hermit. And it says there's meant to be a couple trips coming in this year that says good for you spiritually and career-wise.
That energy says good. So do you have anything planned? Not this year, no. I've discussed trips, but I haven't booked nothing in the works, no. Kind of just focusing on work right now. It shows me setting with work, having some trips planned for work that's going to be good. But this shows me more towards August and November, the two trips that I'm seeing.
So more towards the end of the year, but energy feels good around that, feels more positive. Definitely being by the water is good for your energy. The energy in the home is feeling a little heavy, though. Like when you're out of the home, you're good. When you're in the home, the energy feels a little tense, heavy.

Chapter 6: What challenges does Max face in his personal life?
So kind of removing things out of the home that don't need to be there, decluttering energy. But also says Seijin, clearing the space. It says you're a strong person, independent, strong-minded, a little stubborn and hard-headed. Yeah, absolutely. Which isn't a bad thing, it's a good thing. Because if you wasn't so stubborn, you wouldn't get where you need to be yet. But again, patience.
You have an old soul, young energy. Yeah. So you think you know everything, but there's still a lot more learning, a lot more growing. And it feels like you had a couple of past lives. Energy wise, though, it says you're definitely always a helper in every life, including this one. You're a good person. You get the shirt off your back when someone needs it. And you're always a helper.
You're always giving back to others, taking care of others. And right now, energy-wise, the last two months, it says silence. Focus on your work, focus on your career, but learn to say no to some people and say yes to yourself more, taking care of you. Yeah. It's about listen to your body, listen to your energy, listen to where you're going.
But it's like energy-wise, the relationship doesn't fully fall over yet. It says it needed time. Both of you needed time to kind of grow and mature where you needed to be at. Mm-hmm. And it doesn't feel like it's 100% over. I feel like there could be a reconnection or communication coming back in. I don't feel like there was full closure. Yeah.
Do you feel like you got full closure or they got full closure? I think it was just frustration and just like came to an agreeance that it was over. Yeah. So it says, it feels like both of your life started to start moving and energy wise, it just feels like both of you was being upset for different reasons in the relationship.
And there was a lot of lack of communications on both sides, not on one or the other, but both of yous with communications was a little bit lacking. And it's like, you're, it's hard for you to speak a lot emotionally. You hold in a lot. Yeah. That was one of our biggest issues actually is kind of interesting. You don't like to share. You don't like to talk.
You hold in, hold in, hold in, and then you explode.

Chapter 7: How does Max reflect on his experiences at the Venice Boardwalk?
So it says energy-wise, communication, emotionally, you need to learn to be more open. But since you've been about 14, you've been very shut off emotionally. It's like you don't like to share a lot. And definitely says your throat chakra definitely needs to open. I've been told that before. Because you have so much to share, but the words don't come out the way you need them to.
But energy-wise, the universe needed to close this chapter so you could focus on the business, so you could focus on the work. Because you were putting too much on your plate. And energy-wise, you couldn't give everything that they needed, and they couldn't give you everything you needed at the moment. Because it says both of your guys' careers was in two different places.
Energy's was all over the place. And when you guys came back to each other, it was like... A punching bag for each other. Yeah. And it felt like physically, emotionally, mentally draining on both sides. And it says, energy-wise, I do see a future of communication being there, of just speaking to each other, clearing energy. And there's room for friendship. Now, is this a soulmate energy?
I'm not picking up a soulmate connection. That doesn't feel like a soulmate. Marriage don't show me till after 32. How old are you now? 34. Turning 34. 34. Yeah, so marriage showed after 32. It said, energy-wise, they'll be before 38. So you have some time. Okay. And it says, energy-wise, you want to know someone for two years before jumping into a marriage. And there's meant to be two kids.
Any more than that, you're not going to have patience for. But kids, it will be up to you. Energy-wise transformation. That card is there. It says new beginnings, new chapters, transformation coming in. But again, it's about believing in yourself and having faith in yourself and not second guessing. So it says your sacral could be a little bit more open in the chakras.
Your throat could be more open, and energy says crown could be more open. Third eye as well, because you have such a strong spiritual side, but you shut yourself down.

Chapter 8: What are Max's thoughts on his time in Texas?
You don't allow yourself to fully be open and present with it. It's like you question it or doubt it. And it says energy-wise, the universe wants you to be back open to the spiritual side, to listen to that intuition and to trust it more. Yeah. So it says right now, this year says you shouldn't be in relationships.
Dating, having fun is up to you, but you shouldn't start anything until after June. This next couple of months, it's all about focus on your career, focus on your spiritual energy and focus on yourself. After June, you start dating, putting your energy out there, putting yourself out there. But it says relationships feel like more towards February of next year.
Stronger chances of growth in the relationship area. But it says different background or nationality. Yeah. Not meant to be going for the same type of energy. Changing it up. This says you're meant to be someone different background, different nationality, energy wise. It does say someone career driven, focused on their career, more independent. Not someone that you have to take care of.
Not someone that you have to emotionally take care of or that's too needy. Because you're meant to be busy in your work life and you need someone that's going to work on yourself to be a whole and you need someone that's going to be a whole. That's going to be there and take care of what they need to take care of so you guys could grow a foundation, have a foundation.
energy says you are meant to meet this person more in person not online not over the internet but in person and feels like you can know them for two months three months four months just talking and enjoying each other before it gets anything serious she says don't be a fool and lose yourself
So yes, the last two years have been difficult, but the Wheel of Fortune is meant to turn back around and things are meant to come more clear to you. Happiness loves success. It says the universe is on your side and the universe is meant to give back to you. But you have to be willing to accept and take it and not say, oh, that's two months, three months, six months. I'm not ready yet.
It says you have to be ready to accept it. You have to be ready to take on what's coming in. And it says, energy wise, you're going to get busy. And once you get busy, it's going to continue going. There's not a lot of stops for it. It's going to continue. The horse energy is going to move with you. So it says, energy wise, this year there's meant to be celebrations.
Within this next two months, it says celebrations coming in in your work and business adventures, putting your name out there, putting your brand out there more, bringing it into life, not just in your mind, but bringing it into life, talking to the right people. So I do see you meeting up with a couple of people. from now to the next two months that's going to believe in you and get this going.
And investments coming in and savings coming in to help you. Making money ain't a problem. Saving it becomes a little bit of a challenge. So you got to learn to save and invest in the right areas. But it says energy-wise, a peace of mind coming in. Your mind's meant to be at peace. Your energy's meant to be at peace.
