Creating A Safe Space: Helping Shut-Down Sitters Open Up
Supporting a Sitter Who Feels Emotionally Shut Down Creating a safe space for sitters is not something we often talk about. As mediums, we often meet people at vulnerable moments. Some sitters arrive open and ready. Others show up emotionally guarded, unsure if they can trust the process or even themselves. When this happens, it’s […]
The Fear Is Real — But So Is the Calling
Fear Is Real — But So Is the Calling Right now the fear is real in the country. I believe every soul is sacred. No administrative error, no government decree, no border policy can strip that truth away. I am reminded of the story we tell of the early years of Susan B. Anthony, who […]
The Slow Return: Creativity, Vulnerability, and the Fight to Be Seen
The slow return of to who I am has taken years. I’m not new to writing. In fact, I’m not new to speaking, teaching, or sharing spiritual wisdom. But there’s a big difference between sharing what I know and sharing who I am. That’s what writing—true, vulnerable writing—demands of me. I’d be lying if I said […]
How to Stay Grounded Before, During, and After Readings
How to Stay Grounded Before, During, and After Readings Grounding is essential for mediums. It helps you stay centered, clear, and connected, ensuring that you can deliver messages with focus and confidence.

Staying Spiritually Strong in a World on Fire
I’ll be honest: there are days when it feels like the world is on fire, and I’m right in the middle of the blaze. The outrage is everywhere. People are angry, hurt, and divided. And sometimes, I find myself right there with them, feeling that same heat. It’s a natural reaction, isn’t it? We’re watching […]
Preventing Weaponized Incompetence Before It Starts
Preventing Weaponized Incompetence Before It Starts It’s frustrating to deal with weaponized incompetence, but what if you could stop it before it starts? While you can’t control other people’s behavior, you can set clear expectations, establish boundaries, create accountability, and create an environment where this tactic doesn’t thrive. Setting Clear Expectations from the Start One […]
The Ripple Effect: How Everyday Actions Create Change
The ripple effect of kindness cannot be discounted. In a world that often feels chaotic and divided, it’s easy to wonder if our small actions truly matter. We see injustice, pain, and struggle, and we might feel powerless to create change. But change doesn’t always come from grand gestures or sweeping movements—it often starts with […]
Avoiding Burnout in Mediumship
The Balance Between Self-Care and Service: Avoiding Burnout in Mediumship Avoiding burnout in mediumship is not something that we discuss enough. Many mediums step into service with a deep desire to help others. But in the pursuit of being available for Spirit and those in need, it’s easy to forget one important truth: You can […]
The Cost of Speaking Out and the Strength It Brings
There is a cost to speaking out. I have felt it deeply. When I have taken a stand, people have walked away. Friendships (and family) I thought were solid disappeared, and I found myself questioning whether I had made a mistake. But with time, I realized something profound: if standing by my values makes people […]

Are You Over-Giving? The Spiritual Consequences of Carrying Others’ Burdens We don’t talk about the spiritual consequences of carrying others’ burdens. Giving is at the heart of spiritual work, but is it possible to give too much? Absolutely. There’s a fine balance between offering support and depleting yourself to the point of exhaustion.
