Navigating the Complex Losses & Grief
The Contemporary Medium
This episode takes an in-depth look at how to navigate complex loss and grief. It’s important to recognize that each individual will grieve differently after a loss. A loss could be anything. It’s not necessarily losing a loved one from the physical world to the spiritual world. With every loss there is a opportunity for personal growth. However, not everybody sees a loss as a positive catalyst in their life and we must honor that if it’s someone else’s story. It’s critical that you remember your experience through your own perception and don’t let anybody else dictate what that...

Creating more harmony in your life and strengthening your intuition go hand-in-hand. When you're working on strengthening your intuition, you have to clear up your energetic space.

85. Mediumship Series: Fear and Doubt with Mediumship and Everyday Life
The Contemporary Medium
As a medium, fear and doubt are two crucial things that you must learn to face and work with to prosper. But we all know these limitations affect all of us in everyday life as well. Fear and doubt never fully go away but there are ways to learn to push through them. We all handle certain situations differently, but by just showing up, pushing through, and doing your best, fear becomes not so powerful. You are going to have challenges, but those challenges don’t define your abilities or your self worth. Doubt and fear present themselves with family, relationships and in work life. Remember...

The Contemporary Medium
During a time of intense soul searching, learning to make the most of the present moment and doing the work for yourself is of the essence.
