227: Your Are The Collective
Meredyth with a Why: Wisdom, Truth, Soul Guided Spirituality
In this episode, I’m talking about something I believe we’re all feeling right now, whether we want to admit it or not, the collective. That sense that something is off in the world, even when your personal life might look fine on the outside. We are energy. We’re affected by what’s happening around us. And there’s no opting out of that. I dive into why the heaviness, fear, anger, and confusion so many of us are experiencing isn’t random. It’s collective energy. And the real question becomes: what do we do with it? How do we stay grounded, human, and empowered when fear is being...

226: The War Of Spirit
Meredyth with a Why: Wisdom, Truth, Soul Guided Spirituality
In today’s episode, I’m talking about something that’s been weighing heavily on me this week. What we are seeing play out in the world right now only makes sense when you look at it through one lens, the War of Spirit. This isn’t just about politics, borders, governments, or power. It’s about fear versus love. Legalism versus humanity. The God of rules and punishment versus the Father that Jesus spoke of when he said, simply, “Love one another. Period.” In this episode, I share what I believe is happening beneath the surface of current events and why so much of the chaos, fear,...

225: Barbra Banner: Next level Soul Medium
Meredyth with a Why: Wisdom, Truth, Soul Guided Spirituality
In this episode, I sit down with psychic medium and certified healer Barbra Banner for a deep, honest conversation about mediumship, soul growth, grief, and what it really means to trust the unseen. Barbara’s journey into this work didn’t begin in childhood. It unfolded later in life, and when spirit showed up, it showed up loudly. We talk openly about what mediumship really looks like beyond the stereotypes and social media clips, and how spiritual work can be both deeply healing and very human. In this conversation, we explore: - Barbara’s late-in-life spiritual awakening and how...

224: 'PUNISHMENT" Is The Spiritual Protection
Meredyth with a Why: Wisdom, Truth, Soul Guided Spirituality
What if the hardest moments of your life weren’t punishment, but spiritual correction trying to wake you up? If you keep attracting the same painful patterns, relationships, or emotional challenges, this episode of Meredyth with a Why offers a perspective that can completely change how you see your life. In this episode, I discuss one of the most misunderstood concepts in spirituality and personal growth: the belief that suffering is punishment. I share a personal realization about working to be loved, and how it revealed why we repeat emotional patterns and attract the same relationships...

223: You Are Psychic, Period
Meredyth with a Why: Wisdom, Truth, Soul Guided Spirituality
In this episode of Meredith with a Why, host Meredyth Willits delivers a powerful, no-nonsense reminder that challenges everything we have been taught about intuition, spirituality, and self-trust. Her message is simple and unapologetic: you are psychic, period. This episode is not about becoming something new. It is about remembering who you already are. Meredyth breaks down the idea that psychic ability is not rare, special, or reserved for a select few. It is part of being human. From gut instincts and red flags to sudden thoughts, emotional reactions, and physical symptoms, she explains...

222: Waste and Want Are Spiritually Imperative
Meredyth with a Why: Wisdom, Truth, Soul Guided Spirituality
In this deeply honest episode, I’m inviting you to rethink one of the most familiar life lessons we’ve all heard: “waste not, want not.” Instead of treating “waste” as something shameful, I’m sharing how letting go, clearing space, and releasing what no longer serves us is spiritually necessary if we ever want to experience true growth, joy, expansion, and alignment with who we really are. If you’ve ever felt guilty for throwing things away… guilty for not finishing what’s on your plate… guilty for stepping away from friendships, jobs, traditions, or expectations that...

221: Lauren Meadowsweet: Quantum Enthusiast
Meredyth with a Why: Wisdom, Truth, Soul Guided Spirituality
In this episode of Meredyth with a Why, I sit down with Lauren Meadowsweet, a quantum enthusiast and the voice behind My Future Healed Self, for a conversation that truly made me pause, reflect, and see things differently. We talk about how our thoughts, emotions, and subconscious programming don’t just influence our mindset, they shape our health, relationships, nervous system, and the reality we’re creating every single day. This isn’t a surface-level conversation. It’s thoughtful, honest, and grounded in lived experience, curiosity, and deep awareness. In this episode, I share a...

220: Psychic, Medium, Channel Lorenda Carr
Meredyth with a Why: Wisdom, Truth, Soul Guided Spirituality
In this episode, I sit down with the incredible crowned medium and multidimensional healer, Lorenda Carr, for a deep, funny, and very real conversation about what it actually means to live as a psychic medium, channel, and spiritual teacher in everyday life.

219: Everything is You: Faith | Wisdom | Light
Meredyth with a Why: Wisdom, Truth, Soul Guided Spirituality
In this episode, I am opening the doors wide and taking you with me into one of the biggest turning points of my life. “Everything Is You” is raw, honest, and straight from the deepest place inside me. After 220 episodes, a full emotional breakdown, 10 days alone in a condo, and one interview that shattered my silence for good, I finally understood something I had been ignoring for far too long. Everything in your life is a reflection of you. Your relationships, your health, your triggers, your happiness. All of it. This episode is where I finally step back into my truth. You will...

218: Pastor Jackson Lahmeyer: Faith | Politics | Power
Meredyth with a Why: Wisdom, Truth, Soul Guided Spirituality
In this episode, I had a deep and honest conversation with Pastor Jackson Lahmeyer that pushes beyond comfort, challenges assumptions, and invites every listener to explore what they truly believe. Jackson is a member of the White House Faith Council, founder of Pastors for Trump, and one of the most outspoken voices at the intersection of faith, politics, and national leadership. I chose to have this episode because I believe real growth happens when we are willing to sit with perspectives that stretch us, activate us, or help us clarify our own truth. Whether you agree, disagree, or sit...
info_outlineIn this inspiring episode of Meredyth with the Why, I sit down with the creators of the C.U.D.D.L. Pouch, Natalie Doherty and Amy Seratt, to talk about healing, recovery, and the importance of community when life takes unexpected turns.
Natalie and Amy’s journey began with friendship, but it was transformed by survival, resilience, and the invention of a product designed to make post-surgical healing safer and more comfortable. From managing surgical drains after cancer treatments to finding purpose in creating tools that truly help patients, their story is one of courage, innovation, and compassion.
Here’s what you’ll hear in this episode:
- The Birth of the C.U.D.D.L. Pouch: How Amy’s breast cancer journey and drain complications inspired Natalie to take action
- Life Beyond the Hospital: Why healing doesn’t end with discharge instructions, and how patients often struggle alone at home.
- Community & Connection: The power of friends, neighbors, and even strangers rallying to support patients in their toughest moments.
- Hopeful Purpose: How Natalie and Amy turned pain into purpose, building not just a product but a supportive community for anyone facing surgery or serious illness.
- Lessons in Strength & Love: Amy’s reflections as a 3-time cancer survivor and how her experiences shaped her belief in living fully and asking for help without shame.
This is more than a conversation about recovery… It’s about resilience, worthiness, and creating a better way forward for anyone walking through healing. Tune in now.
