Foreword by Mark Pucci
Decorated NYPD Detective (Ret) and the founder of The National Institute for Law and Justice
Spending most of my adult life as a detective, private investigator, or investigation supervisor, both in public service as a detective in the NYPD and in the private sector working cases nationwide, I unconsciously developed a sixth sense--an implicit intuition--for reading people and uncovering the truth. While most of the police detectives and professional investigators I know and have worked with will not openly admit to using their intuition to solve cases, it’s succinctly presumed that following our gut feelings often makes the difference in discovering hidden evidence to solve a case. In certain extreme circumstances, intuition may even prove to be the factor that inevitably saves your life or the life of your partner.... |
What Makes Kiersten Unique or Special?
- Unlike most authors of spiritual memoirs, Kiersten is not a professional psychic medium who grew up knowing she had mediumship abilities, nor did she endure a near death experience. She’s a normal person thrown into a supernatural experience for personal and global reasons that weren’t clear in the beginning of her intuitive awakening. Kiersten has gone on to earn the respect of decorated law enforcement officers across the US.
- Kiersten is no stranger to media. As a writer, Shark Tank winner, and speaker, she understands how to effectively communicate her story in a authentic, down-to-earth yet captivating way.
- Kiersten's wit and easy-going personality shine through during interviews and podcasts. Despite the fact that she spotlights tough subjects like childhood sexual abuse, domestic violence, and communicating with the dead, Kiersten has a way of bringing grace and ease to every conversation. She's endured all of the above yet continues to look on the bright side of life.

Short Bio
Kiersten Parsons Hathcock, author of Little Voices: How Kids in Spirit Helped a Reluctant Medium Escape and Heal from Abuse is an award-winning self-taught carpenter/furniture designer, and founder of Mod Mom Furniture, a kids’ furniture company featured on ABC's Shark Tank. She’s also a TEDx speaker and an intuitive medium who works for the National Institute for Law and Justice helping detectives and families uncover truth in missing persons and homicide cases. In her previous work life, Kiersten was a staff writer for Northern Arizona University and TV marketing executive for A&E TV Network and The History Channel. An Ohio native, she now resides in Phoenix, Arizona with her husband, Scott, daughters, Natalie and Grace, and pup, Scout.
Longer Bio
Kiersten Parsons Hathcock is a former TV marketing executive turned self-taught furniture designer/carpenter and late-in-life volunteer psychic medium.
In 2007, she followed her intuition which led her to start Mod Mom Furniture. For three and a half years, Kiersten built everything in her four hundred square foot garage until 2011 when she outsourced manufacturing here in the US. Over the years, Mod Mom Furniture has not only partnered with Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation but has also been featured in magazines, TV shows like Shark Tank and The Nate Berkus Show, and modern design books, but is being purchased by celebrities like Christina Applegate and Matthew McConaughey and wife Camilla, as well and tastemakers like Rachel Zoe.
Two years after founding Mod Mom Furniture, Kiersten realized that she had a gift for mediumship. In addition to running Mod Mom, she quietly founded and ran a 501c3 non-profit called The Little Light Project. She was able to put her gifts to work by volunteering as a medium to help parents connect with their children in spirit while she also helped guide highly intuitive children (and their parents) who were having a hard time understanding intuition. In addition, Kiersten formed life-long partnerships with law enforcement officers across the country. Today, she continues to volunteer her time with detectives, grieving parents, and kids struggling to understand their intuition.
In addition to furniture design and mediumship, Kiersten has written articles for trade magazines and is currently mentoring entrepreneurs and speaking nationally on Using Intuition in Business, Healing from Hidden Abuse, and Building a Brand.
On a more personal note, in November 2018, Kiersten delivered a TEDx Talk about healing and surviving abuse using intuition entitled, "Become the Carpenter of Your Life." Unfortunately, her TEDx talk was censored by TED headquarters, cutting out all parts related to intuition. Her uncensored TEDx talk is featured on her website.
As of November 2021, Kiersten has also teamed up with Mark Pucci, the detective with whom she works and who wrote the foreword for her book, to help families (free of charge) who are searching for answers and missing loved ones. Mark founded The National Institute for Law and Justice (a 501c3 nonprofit) and asked Kiersten to become a founding member. NILJ.ORG
Kiersten landed a book deal for her spiritual memoir, Little Voices, in December of 2021. Post Hill Press will publish Little Voices on September 20, 2022 (Distributed by Simon and Schuster).
Today, Kiersten lives in the Phoenix area with her husband, Scott, two daughters, Natalie and Grace, and pup Scout.

Little Voices Foreword
Written by NYPD (Ret) Detective Mark Pucci
"Spending most of my adult life as a detective, private investigator, or investigation supervisor, both in public service as a Detective in the NYPD and in the private sector working cases nationwide, I unconsciously developed a sixth sense, or implicit intuition, for reading people and uncovering the truth. While most police detectives and professional investigators I know and have worked with will not openly speak admit using their intuition to solve cases, it’s succinctly presumed by all that following our gut-feelings often makes the difference in discovering hidden evidence to solve a case, or in certain extreme circumstances, may even prove to be the decision that will inevitably save your life or that of your partner.
I strongly believe that developing the ability to listen, understand, trust, and then follow my intuition has definitively made me a better detective, and quite possibly resulted in many of my greatest successes and accomplishments as a police detective, and more recently as a private investigator.
Thinking back to before we had the opportunity to speak on the phone, I remember asking myself, “What is this furniture company CEO from Arizona doing volunteering to assist on a high-profile missing persons case in Long Island, New York?” That being said, when I finally had the chance to speak to Kiersten on the phone for the first time, my intuition kicked into full gear. Much to my surprise, not long into our conversation, I realized that she was unlike any other intuitive medium I had spoken to through the years. She explained to me that she recently discovered that she possessed certain abilities that might assist investigators in finding missing persons, and that she was simply looking to volunteer her time because she cared. I eventually came to understand, as time went on, and I got to know Kiersten personally, that she had truly been given a gift for helping others in this way . . . especially kids.
More precisely, what I love about Kiersten, as is illustrated in her book, is that she’s just a regular person thrown into supernatural experiences that unbeknownst to her at that time, had meaning far beyond what she could see. The belief in what we can’t see, especially as a detective looking for quantifiable, tangible evidence, is extremely difficult. However, Kiersten makes it easy to believe. In her moving story and journey, we can see that she is just like most of us; she is extremely logical and fact driven. The most amazing part of her journey is that she wasn’t looking for any of what has happened to her . . . it simply found her.
Thankfully, in writing this book, Kiersten was brave enough to share her undercover life as a reluctant medium, and her amazing journey of survival and healing from abuse. After reading her book, I hope you find the same strength and fearlessness, and you learn to trust your own intuition. What Kiersten reveals to all of us is a hands-on roadmap for life, and as it has proven to be in my personal experience, for truth and justice as well."
