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...

Today, I wanted to talk to you about what it means to be a contemporary medium, and I will also share the answers to the questions that you all submitted on social media and through email.

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...
