Learning to trust Spirit can be challenging for so many people. Mediumship rarely begins with fireworks. Many of us expect voices, visions, or bold messages right away, and when that doesn’t happen, we fear we are doing something wrong. I understand that feeling well. In my early development, I did not work like most mediums. I did not see or hear Spirit clearly. My intuition whispered instead of shouted. I had to learn how to recognize it, trust it, and strengthen it.
Everything changed when I found the right teacher. Before that, I kept searching and pushing. Something inside me knew I was close, but not quite home. When I trusted that guidance and stepped back, the right mentor appeared. Suddenly things made sense. Spirit communication felt natural, and I began to grow in ways I never imagined.
Practice also deepened my awareness. With time, I began to understand how Spirit blended with my thoughts and memory. I noticed what intuition felt like in my body. I saw how information arrived as impressions, feelings, symbols, and memories. Each session taught me something new. No single moment created mastery. Progress came like sunrise—soft, steady, expanding day by day.
Journaling became my turning point. On the days I felt stuck, I could read past entries and see growth. It reminded me that we often miss progress while we’re in it. Like learning to drive a stick shift, there’s a sweet spot you search for. You grind gears at first. You stall. Then one day your hands move without thought, and you realize you found it.
My biggest struggle was overthinking. I questioned everything I received. I wanted it to make sense before speaking it, and that slowed my growth. Then one reading changed everything. I saw two kangaroos bouncing on a trampoline. It made no sense to me, and I begged Spirit for something else. The image refused to go away. A voice inside nudged, just give what you get. So I did. The woman burst into tears and told me her gymnastics coach called her and her best friend “my kangaroos” because she could never get them off the trampoline.
I had heard “trust what you receive” many times, but that was the moment I understood it. Trust grows when we stop trying to control how messages arrive. It deepens when we offer what we receive, even when it feels odd or incomplete. We don’t learn confidence first. We learn courage first. Confidence follows later.
Trust in mediumship rarely arrives with fireworks. It grows in quiet moments when we choose courage over doubt. We learn by showing up, giving what we get, and letting Spirit finish the sentence. You don’t need to have it all figured out. You only need to take the next small step with faith in your connection, and in time, you’ll look back and see just how far you’ve come.
