Spirit Messages: December 2022

In the Spirit School Collective, my monthly membership, we will be doing our FIRST online Psychic Fair on December 10th! You will be able to register for a reading very soon. I had so much fun doing these in my development, and I can’t wait! In addition to my practice circles, Stacee Magee (Spirit Fluent) who you met in a recent episode, will be teaching a Medical Intuition workshop in the Collective as a guest mentor in December. One of my clients, Alesha, will be teaching about the feminine this month too! As if that isn’t enough, the Spirit School Collective members will also have a five day giveaway in December!

The messages for December are focused on returning to the love within yourself, and I hope you are able to take some time to connect this month.

Story Time: Spirit School is Expanding

In 2014 I was daydreaming about what could be possible for me as a medium. At this time, I was in my first two years of development under a mentor I adored who had a cute ocean-front studio - and I wondered, “could this even be possible for me?”

Medical Intuition with Stacee Magee, Spirit Fluent

This week’s guest, Stacee Magee, is TikTok famous for her incredible medical intuitive abilities. She has shared herself authentically on the platform and attracted many spiritual humans to follow her journey. I have been following her for quite awhile and we have become good friends. I’ve had three sessions with Stacee and am amazed by her accuracy! She will be teaching a medical intuitive intensive next year, so be sure to follow her if you’re interested in learning.

Stacy has many talents and abilities, so we only scratched the surface in this interview. From medical intuition to tattoo placements, the conversations we could have are endless! Stacee will be back on Spirit School to talk about her book on birthmarks next, in another episode.

Spirit Messages: November 2022

I’ve been under the weather this week, so the November spirit messages may feel a bit different than the past few months that were more channeled. I want to thank you for your solidarity in response to my last episode on the shadowy side of spiritual business. I received so many messages, including people who had a similar experience with the same podcaster, and others who agreed it was time to bring these issues to light. Scorpio season was perfect timing and I want to thank you for complimenting my vulnerability. If you are drawn to that aspect of my work, there is probably part of you who desires to show up in a similar way.

November is going to be an exciting month in Spirit School! In the Collective, we will have practice circles and a Q&A on death doula work with me. Sara Rose will also be teaching about Human Design in the membership, and there will be weekly opportunities to practice as always. In the free Spirit School space, we will be doing a five-day experience, The Confident Lightworker, that you are welcome to join whether you are practicing or not! This will take place the week of November 21st.

The Shadow Side of this Biz

We are in Scorpio season, which I love! Today’s episode will touch on the shadow side of being a spiritual entrepreneur. It is based on a question I received in the Spirit School Collective, my monthly membership, for a Business Q&A session.

Most of what I share about my business is the exciting parts of the journey. There are metrics to show that my business is successful. but I am also nine years into my journey. In addition to the magic that happens, there are parts of it that are not so positive. I’ve been thinking a lot about the dichotomy we experience where we are thriving in one part of life, while consistently struggling in another. In this episode, I am sharing some of the challenging and painful experiences on my entrepreneurship path to give a more balanced perspective on what it has entailed.

The question asked was, “I consider you successful as a business sister. You speak and do a lot of things that are very generous, and I know deeply you are a giving soul. How has that generosity of yourself healing sister wounds by supporting other women in their businesses impacted you? And what is the return of spiritual energy for you?”

The Spirit School Lecture Series: Spirit School September Q&A

The Spirit School Lecture Series highlights my live teachings in the areas of mediumship, spiritual and personal development, entrepreneurship, and quality of life. Today’s episode was adapted from a monthly Q&A session in my free Spirit School space in September. I have really enjoyed doing my live conversations in that community in place of Instagram! As I have said many times, I teach from my own experiences, and I am flexible in my beliefs. I invite you to take what resonates and leave what doesn’t.

This conversation covered topics such as receiving more messages in mediumship readings, open versus closed eyes, and being an indirect messenger.

Declarations to Spirit - They Do Respond

This episode is based on a philosophy that I received from Spirit a couple rounds ago in The Initiation. I remember the world of Spirit coming through so strong and saying, “You need to remind them that we respond to their declarations.” So much of this work is about declarations, and it was an impactful message to deliver.

This kind of inspired speaking feels so much more powerful than a mediumship link to me. There's just something about my spirit waking up when I speak about certain things, even in classes and mentorship sessions. The physical sensations and the emotional sensations that I get to experience every time I teach or record a podcast are so beautiful that I hope everyone in their lives gets to experience it at some point.

I can definitely feel my spirit lifting and raising and expanding every time I speak something that I feel like my soul and my spirit really needs to speak. I believe that sometimes it is a combination of my spirit helpers on the other side inspiring me. In this episode, I share some recent experiences that demonstrate these philosophies.

Spirit Messages: October 2022

September has been a big month for Spirit School! We are two weeks into The Initiation, which was my biggest launch so far. In the Spirit School Collective, my trauma-informed business coach joined us to have conversations around holding space for grief and managing our energy as lightworkers. We also restructured to allow weekly classes with me to combine teachings, practice and Q+A sessions. They have been very expansive and a reflection of the month of creation I had in September.

Lecture Series: Consistency & Values IGTV

The Spirit School Lecture Series highlights my live teachings in the areas of mediumship, spiritual and personal development, entrepreneurship, and quality of life. Today’s episode is about consistency, values and recognizing the contraction before expansion in my business. This conversation was originally an Instagram Live video. Instead of doing these on Instagram, I will be going live in my free Spirit School community to answer questions live going forward!

Books on Spiritual Expansion and Mediumship Development

I've been asked many times for book recommendations and I finally had time to put together a list. These have impacted my mediumship development, quenched my thirst in my nerdiness around mediumship and historical mediumship, or cracked my heart open.

The Emotion Code with Lynn Tucknies

I have been wanting to share one of my personal healers, Lynn Tucknies of Inner Hero Healing, with you for a long time. I was referred to Lynn through a friend and had sessions for 10 months. I will be resuming weekly sessions and having Lynn work with my son again too! We were waiting until she went full-time into her healing career to do this interview, and the time has come! Since teaching a class on the Emotion Code in the Spirit School Collective, many of my students have had amazing experiences working with Lynn. I am so happy to share her with you through the podcast!

Spirit Messages: September 2022

I always start the spirit messages with the intention that the spirit world knows who will be tuning in and that I bring at least a phrase or message that resonates with each of those people. For September, the first word that came through was clarity. This ended up being a common thread throughout the whole episode. Themes of identity, awareness and connection will be strong for this month, but it all relies on us finding clarity in what we need to change, and what we desire for the rest of 2022.

Embracing Your Full Self with Christian Bradley West, The Country Clairvoyant

I am so excited to share Christian Bradley West, The Country Clairvoyant, with you today! I have been a long-time follower and fan of their memes. However, after having a “Clear Expressive Blocks” session, I knew I had to have them on Spirit School!

In this episode, we talk about embracing your authentic self and different forms of expression. Christian is an artist and writer in addition to being an intuitive. Tactile art mediums like textiles, photography and sculpture have influenced their work. Memes are a way of incorporating poetry and art to remix existing content.

“When we gain the words of description, we also gain access to expression.” - Christian Bradley West

Creating Space for Your Development

I felt that creating space for development would be a fun topic to cover on the podcast. In my free Spirit School community, I posted the question, “For those that are focusing on development while parenting children and/or in full-time careers, what do you do to carve out time and space to commit to your development?” The responses were overwhelming. Over 40 people shared their experiences and advice, and now I’m sharing with you!

Releasing Discouraging Myths in Mediumship

For this episode, I will be talking about myths around mediumship. I wanted to premise this by saying that most of the myths actually came from my Instagram audience. Two weeks ago, I posted the question, "What are some of the myths around mediumship that maybe you once believed, or you still believe, that you just don't feel 100% sure about?" in my stories.

Spirit Messages: August 2022

For the August Spirit Messages, the phrase spirit has been bringing me is, “It’s time to look up friends.” We have been looking down for so long to survive, but it’s time to start seeing the beauty around us. Darkness has had its time, but it’s time to bring back the light. If you focus on nothing else other than how you perceive the world around you, from the space and lens of the soul space and heart, that is enough. I wish you the absolute most divine, a most harmonious month ahead.

Fear of Success

When I first heard this phrase, Fear of Success, it was a lightbulb moment for me. A lot of what you hear today is my personal lived experiences because I teach through experiential storytelling. I find that those who are drawn to listen to specific episodes will hear something through my experiences that really resonates and lands. Hopefully, that will spark and ignite change in your lives. That's why I do what I do.

Spirit Messages: July 2022

Thank you for the positive feedback from the June Spirit Messages. I learned last month that there is power in showing up with the vulnerability of my PMDD. Although I’m experiencing it again this month, I knew there was a need for me to be in this space. When I surrendered to Spirit for the June Spirit Messages, they resonated more than ever and I’ve done the same for this month.
