How to Access Your Inner Blueprint and Unlock The Extraordinary Potential Within, According To Austin Authors Candace B. Patridge and Michael Partridge
The new book, Corridor of Destiny, by Candace B. Partridge and Michael Partridge, is the true story of a young woman finding her own power, learning to see herself as she truly is rather than what others want her to be. Her heroic journey proves intuition and coincidence are not accidents but rather a compass to endless possibility and a world beyond our wildest dreams.
In her quest, she tests the physical, mental, and emotional limits of human resilience. After surviving a near-death experience at age five and persistent violence and sexual abuse from her father, she rises, refusing to be defined as a victim of her childhood trauma. Instead, she chooses to say, “yes to Life” and being her best, embarking on a four-decade global adventure, running a horse ranch and raising three daughters, living and working as an expatriate in East Asia, and immersing herself in over thirty-five countries.
Her journey is one of both profound physical trials and multidimensional ordeals:
• A vision of a female “mentor” appears at age twelve while watching a dying rose magically bloom while in her hands.
• She communicates with the deceased and receives a home exorcism from the Taiwan President’s “palace pastor”.
• She battles and heals both cervical and breast cancer.
• After decades of visionary premonitions, she finally meets the man she had foreseen for so long, her destined partner and future husband, and twenty-seven years younger than herself.
• Her quest for truth culminates inside the Great Sphinx of Giza, where she encounters ancient wisdom that leads to a profound and permanent “lightning flash” awakening, revealing the “mentor” seen at twelve was her future self.
Her life story invites us to see the world with new eyes, showing the universe is interconnected, alive with meaning, purpose, and power by design, waiting to unfold. Uniting science and spirituality, Corridor of Destiny is an invitation to listen to and follow the faint whispers of intuition, to remember who we are and why we are here.
Here’s one review: “The Partridge’s debut work is as multidimensional and compelling as their own lives. Weaving together Candace’s courageous account of a challenging childhood, her transformative near-death experience, and a rich, multicultural journey across the globe, this book is a heartfelt chronicle of persisting and flourishing. Together with Michael’s clear, insightful, scientific explanations, this work becomes a profound, one-of-a-kind roadmap for healing, awakening, and understanding. Beautifully written, it is a rare book that makes you cry, awakens your spirit, and inspires the mind. A must-read for anyone yearning to connect deeply with themselves, the universe, and the mysteries beyond.”
– Scarlett Heinbuch, PhD, Author of We Met On the Other Side
Corridor of Destiny ushers in a fundamental new way of thinking: We are all multidimensional beings, interconnected by a grand design. It is both a true account and an intriguing adventure story of the timeless quest to fulfill one’s destiny and claim the life of our dreams. Merging spirituality and scientific research together, this book weaves the compelling account of a woman’s traumatic childhood in California, her life-changing near-death experience at five, and how she finds herself caught between two worlds—the physical and the spiritual, the mortal and immortal. As time goes by, she raises three daughters and acquires many different life perspectives from her international travels to over thirty-five countries. She learns to face the unknown, heal trauma, and navigate between the material world and the multidimensional world to find meaning and purpose. Ultimately, she discovers a hidden, limitless power inside that transcends her fear and fulfills her destiny.
Proven by recent scientific research, readers learn how to recognize intuition, and how super-perceptions can guide us to our destiny when we radically listen, engage, and act with discretion and knowledge. Vibrant, inspiring, and deeply humane, Corridor of Destiny is an eternal testament to the transformative power of dreams and the importance of listening to our hearts. The book inspires but also provides keys, tools, and scientific insights to help us navigate life’s challenges with grace and resilience, to find clarity, and to develop and trust our own inner wisdom. Then, maybe, just maybe, we each will exceed our wildest dreams.
Through mindful awareness and acceptance of these extraordinary and transcendent super-perception experiences, Corridor of Destiny teaches to move beyond our current beliefs and conditioning to foster clarity, health, and sovereignty. The authors demonstrate how puzzling multidimensional experiences are a natural progression of our human development, and incorporate:
- Intuition, interoception, and our 39+ senses for clarity
- Brain neuroplasticity for accelerated adaptability
- Global cultural immersion for new perspectives
- Rapture in nature for connection
- Superhuman or extra-perception phenomena for wisdom
- NDEs, premonitions, precognition, after-death communication, clairvoyance, and past lives
- The fundamental state of being aware pervading all existence (consciousness) for truth
- Coincidences and synchronicities as nature’s signs and symbols of direction for guidance
This book is for anyone yearning to connect deeply with themselves, the universe, and the mysteries beyond. It provides a science-backed roadmap for living more authentically, healing your body and mind, awakening your spirit, and fulfilling your destiny—scientific spirituality.
Here’s an exclusive excerpt of Corridor of Destiny:
Visionary Premonitions of Destiny Appear
For twenty-two years, I had recurring visions of an unknown, charming young man. It began while living in Pleasanton, a small community outside of San Francisco. Early one afternoon, driving home with the kids from a pediatrician appointment along a nine-mile stretch of a two-lane county road, I was tired after the long day. My mind was calm, just daydreaming, as I stared at the road ahead. Suddenly, my entire line of sight was blocked by a vision, and I couldn’t see the cars in front of me. All I could see was the torso of a striking, self-assured man blocking the windshield. He was there, from about the shoulders up, a man about my age with brown hair pulled back into a ponytail. And just as suddenly as he appeared, he vanished. I brushed it off and ignored it—another unexplainable experience. But why?
Three years later, again my mind was calm and daydreaming in a zone of stillness while driving our horses to a horse show where Kristen and Stacy were in dressage and barrel-racing competitions. The same exact vision of the same man looking the same way in the same clothing appeared again in the windshield, blocking my view. No! Not again! Why me? I can’t see the road! This is dangerous! I’ve got kids and horses. I don’t understand why. I felt angry and afraid.The vision vanished as quickly as it came. Relieved it was over, I brushed it off as coincidence.
Four years later, I was traveling by bullet train while living in Japan, staring out the window, heading toward Kyoto for the weekend. Daydreaming, looking out at the scenery, my mind was clear and still without thought. Again, the same vision instantly appeared, blocking my view. The same man appeared that I had seen before in Pleasanton and in Santa Cruz. It was the identical vision; he was self-assured, in his mid-twenties, with long brown hair and blue eyes.
Now I was curious, a little frightened, and annoyed. I couldn’t understand what was happening or why. After our move to the Far East, I had forgotten all about the visions, dismissing them as momentary imaginative illusions, but this was becoming more serious. Was it a sign? Was it a warning? Was I in danger? What was life trying to tell me? I was excited about living in Tokyo, and the extraordinary vision made no sense. I was comfortable in Japan with good friends, in good health, and actively involved in the international community. Why a vision?
Four years later, once more the same vision appeared in Hong Kong while driving on the dangerous, narrow, and winding Old Peak Road. Three years later, the vision returned in New York, while driving between Saratoga Springs and my home in Albany along a forty-mile stretch on Interstate 87. The vision in New York was more vivid than ever before.
Teaching Clairvoyance in Sedona, Arizona
After Albany, I moved to Sedona, Arizona, in 1992 and became a faculty member at the School of Energy Mastery, founded by Dr. Robert Jaffe, MD. I taught psychotherapy and clairvoyance to around 130 students and taught introductory courses across the United States and Europe. We referred to this introductory course as “The Basic,” but it was anything but basic! It was three grueling, fifteen-hour intensive days beginning at 5 a.m. with Kundalini meditations and ending at 8 p.m. with a Vipassana group meditation. In between, the curriculum was filled with immersive experiences that involved learning clairvoyance and identifying subtle energies in and around the body to diagnose physical, mental, and emotional illness. Clairvoyance was followed by group psychotherapy and healing sessions. It was a safe, encouraging environment to support and inspire vulnerability and accelerated emotional growth with the students.
In Sedona, I had created a private practice with clients, but something was still missing. I had not yet found my mentor—the woman of my vision at twelve—nor the love and happiness I had so longed for. I’d upheld my allegiance with my old friend,life,to follow where it led, but there was something more. In need of new insight and a new direction, I took a risk and visited the best astrologer in the Southwest.
What they shared was completely unexpected and changed my mindset, offering a new hope.
“You have one of the most remarkable charts we’ve ever seen,” they said. “You have gone through great experiential trials, great health ordeal—and have lived! You are still experiencing upheaval, and profound challenges await you. Yet there is something else extraordinary going on. If you can just hold on a little bit longer, very soon you will have all you’ve ever wanted—more than you ever dreamed of. Your chart is clear. The reward is here now, imminent. Get ready!”
Proof of Destiny
“It’s choice, not chance that determines our destiny.”
—Aristotle, ancient Greek philosopher
“The oldest and strongest emotion of humankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown.”
—H.P. Lovecraft, American writer
It was around 5 p.m. the first day of The Basic program held in Sedona, with about seventy-five students in attendance in total, and we had just divided out into groups of ten to twelve students each, led by a teacher. There, in my group, sitting in front of me, unmistakably, undeniably, unbelievably, was the young man of my visions! It was him, and I knew it. He looked exactly like all the previous visions—in his twenties, with blue eyes and long brown hair pulled back in a ponytail.
I could feel the sky falling. No! This cannot be happening! I thought to myself.
I was terrified. I got up without saying a word to the group and left to locate Dr. Jaffe. “I need you to immediately remove that young man from my group,” I said. “I can’t teach him. I can’t have him in my class.”
“Candace, what are you talking about? What has he done? I don’t understand. What’s wrong?” Dr. Jaffe was confused but also saw the fear in my eyes.
Was this my moment of destiny? What would you do if destiny knocked on your door?
Had the visions been ominous warnings foretelling my death? For many years, I had a feeling that my life would end before I turned fifty-two. I had escaped many close calls with death before, including two cancers. I thought my end had finally come. All I could think about was how to run from him. I just need to get through the class, one more hour, I told myself. He didn’t seem to recognize me, but I was on hyper alert. I walked back to the group and kept my distance.
The next day, the man was nearby again. This time I was less in a panic and more curious. He turned out to be humorous, kind, vulnerable, and handsome. Despite his age, he was one of the leaders of the session and had a high aptitude for clairvoyance. I learned he had risked so much to come here on his own and sold his possessions to pay for the tuition. He was all in—nothing held back with this one.
Destiny Returns
There is a deeper design, a plan (destiny) for our lives. Free will is the manner in which we follow our design. Destiny and free will are intertwined, working hand in hand. Not either/or but AND.
Destiny whispers to the warrior,
“You cannot withstand the tiger.”
The warrior whispers back,
“I am the tiger.”
—unknown
The basic session ended, and the students returned home. A week passed, and I found myself reflecting on the man. He didn’t seem dangerous. Had I overreacted? Then a week later, he appeared at my front doorstep with a bouquet of flowers, meekly asking if he could come in and speak with me. I was charmed but apprehensive. It had been many years since any man had brought me flowers. I let him in, but I had two roommates. They could protect me if I needed help.
The man with flowers, the man I let into my home, was Michael. The love of my life. My future husband.
