What happens when psychic readings become a crutch?

In this deeply honest conversation, returning guest Rory Walkhom—a spiritual teacher, channel, and mentor with The Medium School—shares the kind of truth that stops you mid-scroll. You’ll hear us unpack a very real and often uncomfortable dynamic in the psychic and spiritual world: how repeated readings, while well-intentioned, can slowly disempower the very people they aim to help.

Together, we name what’s not working, but more importantly, we talk about how to do it better. For clients, for practitioners, and for the integrity of the sacred work.

This episode isn’t about calling people out. It’s about calling us all in—to a way of showing up in this work that actually roots us deeper into our own soul wisdom.

You’ll hear Rory talk about:

• What a psychic reading is truly meant for

• Why discomfort in the unknown doesn’t need immediate fixing

• How to reconnect with your own inner expansion

• What ethical boundaries look like—for both the reader and the client

• How to choose a practitioner from a place of alignment, not panic

Whether you’re a practicing intuitive or someone who turns to readings when life feels uncertain, this one will meet you right where you are.

"If we’re doing readings again and again for people, we are disempowering them from connecting to their own intuition. That’s not healing. That’s dependency."- Rory Walkhom

Heather Bierner didn’t come to mediumship empty-handed. She brought years of spiritual seeking, a Christian upbringing she’d long outgrown, and intuitive experiences that hinted at something deeper. She even went to India in search of soul truth.

But nothing prepared her for the moment when spirit asked her to let go of everything she thought she needed—and just trust. In this intimate conversation, Heather opens up about her journey inside the Mediumship Mastery Circle: from resisting the unfamiliar to becoming the very tool spirit could work through.

What began with photos, structure, and “doing it right” transformed into something far more sacred—real connection, raw trust, and wild moments of evidence that cracked her open. (Yes, “just say ducks” is now a whole thing.)

If you’ve ever doubted your gifts or wondered if you’re doing it “right,” this episode is your permission to drop the script, soften into your own rhythm, and trust what spirit already knows about you. You’re not behind. You’re becoming.

If your soul is craving a safe, supportive space to deepen your connection with Spirit, my fall Mediumship Mastery Circles are now open for enrollment.

There’s a moment in every medium’s journey when Spirit steps in so clearly, so undeniably, that you can’t go back to who you were before. For me, it was a warm June night outside a little Spiritualist church—a chance meeting with a man in Spirit that cracked my world wide open.

But here’s what I learned in the years after: your mediumship doesn’t grow in a vacuum. It needs a safe, soul-aligned space to breathe. The wrong circle will leave you doubting yourself. The right one will see you first—before your evidence, before your “performance”—and hold you steady while your gifts find their rhythm.

In this episode, I share the story of that first undeniable connection, the hard seasons that followed, and why the right mentor and community are the difference between burnout and deep, joyful connection with the Spirit world. If you’ve been wondering why your mediumship feels stuck—or why it flowed so effortlessly before you “tried so hard”—this one’s for you.

“Mediumship isn’t something you chase. It’s already within you—and the right community will help you remember that.” ~ Courtney Dawson

If your soul is craving a safe, supportive space to deepen your connection with Spirit, my fall Mediumship Mastery Circles are now open for enrollment.

She didn’t grow up seeing spirits. She didn’t spend years in training. But on her very first try, Tosha Link brought through a piece of evidence so specific—a toaster—that it left no doubt spirit was speaking through her.

In this heartfelt conversation, Tosha shares how she went from curious beginner to confident evidential medium in just eight months inside the Connected Spirit Circle. We explore the exact moments that shifted everything for her—why surrender matters, how mentorship and community accelerate growth, and why you don’t need years of training to bring through accurate evidence from spirit.

If you’ve ever wondered if you’re “gifted enough” to be a medium, this episode will remind you that connection isn’t just for a chosen few—it’s for anyone willing to show up, practice, and trust the process.

She was a nurse in the ICU, raised Baptist, mothering, wife-ing, surviving—until Spirit began whispering louder. Through grief and gut-truths, ancestral dreams and a deep church awakening, Ermi listened. And when she finally said yes, everything changed.

In this raw, magnetic episode, Ermi shares her journey from a strict Christian upbringing to becoming a deeply Spirit-led psychic medium. Her story weaves through unchurching, ancestral reclamation, and breaking stereotypes as a Black woman in the spiritual space.

We talk about hearing Spirit in the hospital, reconciling faith with mediumship, and why representation isn't just powerful—it's necessary.

This conversation is an offering for anyone trying to hold God and intuition in the same hand.

Ermi: "Whoever controls your mind, controls you."

[00:29] – Ermi's multidimensional identity: mother, nurse, medium, Leo

[01:56] – Human design and the sacred art of balance

[04:11] – What life looked like before Spirit became center

[06:36] – A Pentecostal church visit that cracked her open

[10:18] – Divine whispers, grief dreams, and spiritual awakening

[18:12] – Reconciling Christian faith with intuition and gifts

[24:45] – Letting go of religious fear and reclaiming God

[32:52] – How Spirit trained her through practice, not classes

[40:19] – Ethical mediumship and building your own vocabulary

[52:26] – Why Ermi shows up as a Black medium—and what she’s reclaiming

If you're wrestling with faith, gifts, or a calling that doesn’t fit inside the old boxes—this is your permission to listen deeper. Let Spirit show you what’s possible when you stop choosing between God and your truth. You can hold both.

There’s a moment most of us don’t talk about—the quiet, gritty middle of the spiritual path. The part where everything feels heavy, not magical. Where we wonder, “Am I really meant for this?” In today’s episode, Courtney shares her raw experience of navigating these shadows: losing friendships, leaving the church, and questioning her path—yet always finding her way back to spirit’s quiet power.

If you’ve been feeling weary, unsure, or disconnected, this conversation is your gentle reminder: the waves may feel overwhelming, but the shore is always there. You’re not losing the plot. You’re just in the middle.

As a teenager, Kelly Brickell couldn’t sleep. Her body was wired, her mind racing, her spirit trying to be heard. What doctors dismissed, she later recognized as the first signs of energetic sensitivity—an invitation into a world of spirit she hadn’t yet named.

In this soul-deep episode, Kelly opens up about how chronic insomnia cracked open her path into psychic mediumship and numerology.

She shares how ancestral gifts were hidden in plain sight, how numbers became her unexpected allies, and why knowing your own energy is the foundation of any true spiritual work.

This isn’t a how-to—it’s a heart-level remembering. You’ll leave feeling more connected to your sensitivity, your lineage, and the codes that have been speaking to you all along.

"You have to know what’s yours and what’s not. That’s the real starting point of any spiritual work." - Kelly Brickel
