Ever wondered what it's like to chat with ghosts for a living? Join me as I sit down with Jenny Tomkins, the fascinating mind behind Sorrento Ghost Tours, who stumbled into the world of the paranormal quite by accident. What started as a way to stay awake for late-night mum taxi duties has turned into a 14-year journey of discovery, scepticism, and ultimately, belief.
Jenny shares how she's developed her own sensitivities over the years. She recounts incredible experiences, from ghostly encounters in haunted houses to the surprising ways spirits communicate through modern technology. But it's not all spooks and spectres - Jenny's tours have also unveiled forgotten histories, including poignant stories of Indigenous spirits still making their presence felt.
This episode is a deep dive into the world of ghost tours, clairvoyance, and the thin veil between our world and the next. Jenny's journey from non-believer to ghost whisperer will challenge your perceptions and maybe, just maybe, make you question what lies beyond our everyday reality. Whether you're a sceptic or a true believer, Jenny's stories will leave you with a newfound curiosity about the unseen world around us.
Key points from our discussion:
- The accidental birth of Sorrento Ghost Tours - from mum taxi to ghost guide
- Jenny's personal journey from sceptic to believer
- The role of clairvoyants in developing ghost tour routes

Remember; You may not be ready to die, but at least you can be prepared.
Take care,
Catherine
