Julie channels a council of Spirit Supporters referred to as ELI.

I asked her to come back to Spirit School to talk more about channelling and ELI. If you don't know Julie Poole—she is a lightworker on Youtube spreading light through her valuable and highly accurate monthly readings. I have been a long-time viewer! Julie is coming to Spirit School in September to teach manifestation based on her popular book From Hoping to Having!

In this episode, I welcome back my personal mentor and renowned medium, Dominic Boag, for an insightful conversation about his experiences travelling and conducting demonstrations around the world. We discuss various aspects of mediumship, from the thrill of live demonstrations to the profound impact of private readings. Dominic and I also delve into the intricacies of mediumship and the importance of striking a balance between providing evidence and delivering meaningful messages, and much more.

This week’s episode is inspired by a conversation I had with my friend’s father, an avid listener and successful entrepreneur, in which he shared some of his wisdom with me. I went live to talk about the struggles that come with expansion on Instagram and my audience asked me to do a podcast episode on this topic. I’ve received so many comments about how much the live resonated with people, so I hope this episode helps you realize that you aren’t alone. It’s okay to struggle and feel pressure when things are going well.

In this conversation, Sheila talks about her book, Brave, and how you can start being more brave in your everyday life. We both share the philosophy that you can apply your spiritual gifts in your existing career and start opening up to ways you can serve. Join us both for the Bravely Spiritual 2-Day Accelerator at Spirit School in beautiful Squamish, BC! This 2-Day retreat will expand you spiritually and increase your confidence when connecting with spirit.

I polled my Instagram audience to choose the topic for this episode and the choices were either energy, or my trip to Chillingham Castle. Obviously, Chillingham Castle won! I decided to begin with the audio from a TikTok by @historyhit that gives some historical context before I share my experience. I spent years as a documenter for a paranormal investigators group in Vancouver, so visiting the castle was on my bucket list!

I am so excited to be here with your April Spirit messages. I have not felt this energy for a long time. The world of Spirit came through so strong with the message, 'Don't forget you came here to live. You came here to live an expansive life. You came here to live a life that is not meant to be easy. That is not meant to be smooth all the time. Do not forget you came here to live. We did not come here to merely survive.’

For today’s episode, I am sharing a Q+A session from the most recent cohort of The Initiation so that you can get a taste of the types of topics we cover! I will be running this signature program at least one more time, and the waitlist is available below. In addition to the foundations for your first three years of mediumship development, I also tailor the classes and Q+A sessions to the needs of the students in the cohort, making each round of the experience unique!

Jenni has been a student of mine for a while and has done some incredible development over the past few years, including going to the UK. I admire her confidence and how she shows up in the world, and I just think that she is a fantastic human being. Jenni is giving and generous in all the different spaces she occupies, and I thought Spirit School listeners would resonate with her. Our inner world experience is different from how other people experience us, and Jenni shares how astrology can help us to understand the nuances of that.

Today, I am talking to Winter Brook, a psychic and transfiguration medium, reiki master, spiritualist minister, teacher, attorney, and humanitarian. We met through Mavis Pittilla's Advanced Mediumship. I did it two years in a row and we were in a circle together in the cohort we were both in. We didn't have much time to engage with one another there, but we continued to follow each other on Facebook. Getting to know more about Winter and her physical mediumship through that connection is why I wanted to have her on today. This interview also showed how Winter’s love for animals and humanitarian work overlaps with her spiritual work. She is a natural teacher and we are so excited to have her join us in the Spirit School Collective as a guest mentor for the mentors to experience her energy and wisdom.

Welcome to the March 2023 Spirit Messages. This month's overarching themes are about the law of reciprocity, your interactions and knowledge exchanges, and a lot of spirituality and spiritual growth.

It's a very spiritual month. A lot of the things that are coming up are around spirituality. So if you have been feeling disconnected from spirituality or disengaged from your spiritual path, this will be a really exciting month for you to reconnect.

Today, I am talking to Julie Poole, an intuitive psychic, healer, channeller, Reiki Master/Teacher, Professional Hypnotherapist, Coach and Author from the UK. I discovered her through her astrology forecasts on YouTube and resonated with her Virgo forecasts! I also had a reading with her, which was very accurate for what was happening in my life. Her background as a therapist and spiritual teacher are reflected in her grounded and holistic approach to her work.

Today, I am talking to my dear client turned friend, Emily Barnard of The Things That Make You Go Woo podcast, and @emilyandherstars. She is an astrologist, teacher, medium, and Akashic records reader Emily was my very first online mentorship client and we have become very close friends over the past few years. We have a mutual love of history, pop culture, and memes that translates into our passion for sharing information instead of gatekeeping.

This episode was recorded in December, and it was based on some inconvenient truths that came up when I was preparing content about being a confident lightworker. Developing confidence is not an easy path, and it takes a lot of courage to step into this work. If you are not someone who does readings or serves the public, this episode will give you some insight into how vulnerable it is to show up in this way.

Hopefully, you all had a good start to the new year and feel hopeful for 2023. What I have to say around February may bring you some inspiration and bring you hope and clarity on where the world of Spirit sees us moving our attention and energy next.

I know so many of you out there want to be able to share all the things that you know. So, I feel very much that Spirit's encouraging us to give ourselves a bit more space to figure these things out, see where we land, and really get clear on the intention of the ripple effect that we want to create in the future and for our future selves.

One of the benefits of being in the free Spirit School community is that I enjoy going live to connect with you. This episode is from the Mediumship Q&A I did in that space on January 14. Most of the questions were submitted ahead of time and there were some that came up live. Come join us for the next one and enjoy the other free development experiences we have to offer!

In today’s episode, I am sharing a channelled class and philosophy from the last round of The Initiation about mediumship as an art. The live classes in my intimate development experiences are in response to the questions and conversations happening in the community. Part of the reason I’ve taught this mediumship foundations program so many times is that it’s different every round!

I’ve been ready for 2023 to come and I’m excited to bring you the January spirit messages! I say that these are collective messages with a disclaimer that I am not intending to speak on the behalf of 8 billion people on this planet. This is Spirit's way, and my spirit's way, of bringing forward information that I feel will resonate with a lot of people who are regular listeners and who will be drawn to listen to this. I believe Spirit will attract you as a listener to different episodes at different times, and you will hear something that will resonate with you when you need it.

I couldn't wait to record this episode because all month it's just been coming in so, so clear that when we feel into the energy of January, we are being asked to start looking to our future selves. This is very powerful because I know from being in the intuitive mediumship and spiritual development journey, that there's so much healing that has to take place to be able to step fully and confidently into our paths as lightworkers.

This episode ends with a Confident Future Self visualization and I encourage you to journal what you envision for yourself in 2023!

I was asked by a few people for some personal updates, so I decided to record an episode to talk about the major events and challenges in 2022. I’m giving it a 3.5 star review - WHAT the hell was that?! I haven’t recorded the spirit messages yet, but I want to share what Spirit has been inspiring me with for 2023 as well. I now have some clarity on what the focus will be looking towards the future.

I would love to hear your top 3 things from 2022 and your top 3 for heading into 2023! You’re welcome to share them on the post for this episode in Spirit School. I enjoy getting to know you there. The move off of social media was one of my main goals for 2022, and this is one of the benefits! I hope you enjoy hearing my recap and I appreciate you taking the time to listen, and your acceptance of the emotions that come along with it.

This week, I am talking about “sitting with spirit” as part of my personal development practice. I talked about this in the episode about making time for your development, but this episode will be more in-depth. I am going to lead you through a guided visualization experience as an example of one way I sit with spirit. Even though I was aware of mediumship for most of my life, my development path didn’t start until my first mediumship connection. Sitting in the power is a foundational part of the Spiritualist tradition and teachings, but as I’ve mentioned before, it wasn’t sustainable for me. I need more flexibility in my practice, which is how I started sitting with spirit.

This week, I am having a conversation with my dear friend Michael Mayo. He is a medium, the founder of the Oakbridge Institute, and the author of a new book, Spirit Speaks. Michael shares that he wanted his book to have everything someone needs to begin their mediumship development journey. He talked about how mediumship is more about allowing yourself to receive than technique and shared his thoughts on the differences between UK and US mediumship standards. One of the things that came out of this conversation was a shared agreement that we need more genuine sharing and accessibility for mediumship because it can benefit everyone.

I said more than once in the episode how energizing it was to have this conversation about mediumship! This is one of the benefits of being in community while doing this work.
