Chris Nielsen on Tchaikovsky, Creativity, and the Search for Meaning
Interview on the Just Enamoured podcast with Justin Magsino
Chris Nielsen joins Justin Magsino on Just Enamoured for a thought-provoking conversation about identity, purpose, creativity, regression therapy, and the search for meaning.
Drawing on the extraordinary journey behind Being Pyotr Ilyich, Chris shares how years of current- and past-life regression led her to discover a previous life as composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and to explore how experiences from that life continued to resonate in her present one. She discusses how this discovery helped her reinterpret lifelong connections with ballet and music, as well as deeper emotional patterns, relationships, and seemingly inexplicable experiences.
The conversation also explores why healing matters more than simply uncovering a past-life story, the vulnerability of sharing such deeply personal experiences publicly, and the six-year journey of bringing Being Pyotr Ilyich into the world. At its heart, the episode examines the deeper questions that drive us to search for meaning — and how understanding the hidden patterns of our lives can transform the way we see ourselves.

Chris Nielsen on Living in Truth, Past-Life Healing, and Tchaikovsky
Interview on the Moving to Oneness podcast with Meilin Ehlke
Chris Nielsen joins Meilin Ehlke on Moving to Oneness for an intimate conversation about past-life regression, healing, creativity, identity, and the courage to live in alignment with one’s inner truth.
Drawing on the extraordinary journey behind Being Pyotr Ilyich, Chris explains how approximately 100 hours of regression work connected with her life as Tchaikovsky became both a profound personal healing process and the foundation of the book. She explores her “equation of healing” — understanding, acceptance, forgiveness, and healing — and discusses how unresolved experiences may continue to influence our emotional lives across time.
The conversation also moves into creativity, cultural conditioning, emotional education, and the ways we unconsciously reproduce patterns inherited from family and society. Chris shares a simple practical exercise for recognizing how much of everyday life genuinely reflects who we are — and how much is lived on autopilot.
Deeply moved by the book, Meilin describes it as a work filled with “gems” of wisdom that reaches beyond Tchaikovsky’s story to illuminate universal questions of sensitivity, belonging, self-expression, love, and purpose.

Chris Nielsen on Tchaikovsky, Parallel Lives, and Healing Beyond Time
Interview on the acclaimed Closer to Venus podcast with Johnny Burke
Chris Nielsen was recently featured on Closer to Venus, recognized among the 30 Best Metaphysical Podcasts and previously selected as one of the Top 5 Reincarnation Podcasts You Must Follow.
In this deeply personal conversation, Chris reveals how a single footnote in a spiritual book led her to study hypnosis and past-life regression, eventually uncovering more than thirty lives shaped by two recurring paths: art and spiritual devotion.
She also explains why Tchaikovsky became the central figure of her book, describing him as an extraordinarily sensitive being, “like a being without skin,” whose life offered a powerful case study for exploring the fear of abandonment, suffering, depression, karma, love, life purpose, etc.
The episode moves beyond conventional discussions of reincarnation into the healing potential of life-between-lives regression, where understanding, acceptance, and forgiveness become essential stages of transformation. Chris also shares striking experiences involving parallel lives, real-time spiritual “downloads,” mediumship, earthbound spirits, and the emotional bond that kept Tchaikovsky close to Earth after death.

Chris Nielsen on Past Lives, Healing Trauma, and the Spiritual Journey of the Soul
Interview on the Spiritual Infinity podcast with Zenzi Sewaah
Chris Nielsen was recently featured on Spiritual Infinity, the podcast hosted by Zenzi Sewaah, in a deeply reflective conversation about past-life regression, trauma healing, soul memory, and the spiritual journey behind human experience.
In the episode, Chris speaks about the personal awakening that began through unexplained physical illness and gradually led her to Reiki, energy healing, regression therapy, and a deeper understanding of the links between emotional blockages, physical symptoms, and unresolved trauma carried across lifetimes.
The conversation also explores the discovery of her past identity as Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and how this revelation became, not a question of fame, but a profound doorway into healing, creativity, abandonment wounds, forgiveness, and the evolution of the soul — themes at the heart of her book, Being Pyotr Ilyich – Tchaikovsky’s Inner Life, Revealed by Himself 130 Years Later.
Together, Zenzi and Chris discuss karma, relationships, self-forgiveness, collective awakening, and the importance of recognizing that the soul transcends nationality, gender, religion, culture, and the temporary identities we wear from one lifetime to another.

Interview on Boots, Shoes, and Fashion, as part of the Blog Tour dedicated to Being Pyotr Ilyich – Tchaikovsky’s Inner Life, Revealed by Himself 130 Years Later
Chris Nielsen was recently featured on Boots, Shoes, and Fashion in an in-depth interview published as part of the blog tour dedicated to her book, Being Pyotr Ilyich – Tchaikovsky’s Inner Life, Revealed by Himself 130 Years Later.
In this wide-ranging conversation, Chris speaks about the inner fire that led her to transform her past-life regression sessions into a spiritual memoir, and about the profound revelations received during the healing process that shaped the book. The interview explores how trauma, emotional blockages, self-love, karma, the Higher Self, and the relationship with the Divine became central to understanding not only her former life as Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, but also the deeper continuity between lives.
The conversation also offers a more personal portrait of Chris as an author, therapist, podcast host, and lifelong seeker — from her artistic and cultural background to her work with Time Traveling – A Spiritual Journey of Healing podcast, her love of books on spirituality and consciousness, and even the subtle ways in which past lives may echo through present-day tastes, affinities, and personal style. At its heart, the interview invites readers to see Being Pyotr Ilyich not simply as a book about the past, but as a doorway into the long, complex, and fascinating journey of the soul.

When a Book Is More Told Than Written
Interview by Nicole Pyles for WOW – Women on Writing, opening the Blog Tour dedicated to Being Pyotr Ilyich – Tchaikovsky’s Inner Life, Revealed by Himself 130 Years Later
Chris Nielsen was recently featured on WOW – Women on Writing in an interview conducted by Nicole Pyles, marking the opening of the blog tour dedicated to her book, Being Pyotr Ilyich – Tchaikovsky’s Inner Life, Revealed by Himself 130 Years Later.
In this in-depth conversation, Chris reflects on the profoundly unusual way the book came into being: from more than twenty regression therapy sessions, nearly one hundred hours of trance work, and a process she describes as being, in a very intimate sense, “more told than written.” What emerges is not a conventional account of Tchaikovsky’s life, but a rare form of spiritual testimony — one that moves between soul memory, healing, direct inner experience, and dialogue with the Divine.
The interview also explores the larger journey behind the book: how past-life regression entered Chris’s life through a chain of synchronicities; how her own healing process became a form of research into the history of the spirit; and how Being Pyotr Ilyich later gave birth to her podcast, Time Traveling – A Spiritual Journey of Healing. At its heart, the conversation points toward one of the central messages of Chris’s work: that existence has meaning, nothing is random, and living more consciously may begin with the courage to “live in truth.”

Interview on the Going North podcast with Dom Brightmon
Chris Nielsen was recently featured on Going North, a Top 10 Self-Help Podcast from 2018 to 2020 hosted by Dom Brightmon, in a lively and meaningful conversation about authorship, healing, creativity, and the deeper purpose behind our human experiences.

Their conversation explores how emotional blockages may originate far beyond the present life, how relationships and soul groups can continue across incarnations, and why writing, composing, painting, or any act of creation may also become a profound process of self-discovery and inner healing.
Chris also reflects on the importance of living with presence, questioning inherited patterns, trusting oneself more deeply, and approaching life with meaning, courage, and openness.

In Episode 111 – Use Creativity to Transform into Spiritual Elegance, Chris reflects on a theme central both to the conversation and to her book, Being Pyotr Ilyich – Tchaikovsky’s Inner Life, Revealed by Himself 130 Years Later: that art is often born from pain, and that one of the deepest spiritual tasks is to transform suffering into beauty, meaning, and inner elegance.
The episode explores how authentic creativity does not begin in perfection or performance, but in inner truth — and how, through the honest expression of what we have lived, pain can gradually be refined into wisdom, presence, strength, and a more conscious way of being.

Selected Reader & Influencer Reviews
“Being Pyotr Ilyich felt like reading someone’s secret letter to the world: intimate, raw, and quietly overwhelming. This book reads less like a biography and more like a guided descent into a brilliant, tortured inner life, where music, longing, and a sense of exile shape every line. It’s the kind of book that asks you to feel, not just understand.”
