Lecture Series: Boundaries & Embodiment from IGTV
Tuesday Feb 15, 2022
Tuesday Feb 15, 2022
This episode is from the Spirit School Lecture Series that highlights my live teachings in the areas of mediumship, spiritual and personal development, entrepreneurship and quality of life. Today’s episode about creating boundaries and connecting to the wisdom of your body is a compilation of three IGTV videos from the past two years.
Recently, I have been assessing how I can have stronger boundaries around my energy in my business. I’ve always responded directly to every message and request and as my business has expanded, the way that I serve needs to be more sustainable. I have structured my schedule to accommodate a week off every month.
Though being on the receiving end can sometimes feel like rejection, I hope that by setting some personal boundaries, you are empowered to create your own. We are all worthy of a life filled with peace, joy, expansion and love.
Some of the main points from the episode are:
- I took time off to be in my feminine energy through feeling my emotions and connecting with water
- Processing emotions and healing around being safe in my body
- Setting boundaries allows be to show up better for the people in my life
- I created clarity for myself by quitting drinking as a lifestyle choice for awhile
- It wasn’t the alcohol, but drinking to numb my feelings that was a problem for me
- Feeling stuck may be your body asking you to slow down and rest
- If you need to get things done, start with what brings you joy
- I also quit smoking 10 years ago and it was the most difficult thing I’ve done
- I love the life I’ve created and am energized thinking of the changes to come
- My body has changed since quitting smoking and having kids and I feel beautiful!
- Revealed by Meggan Watterson has broken me open and brought my focus to the voice and divinity within
- Many of us experience trauma that makes us feel unsafe in our bodies, making it difficult to sit with ourselves in stillness
- Mediumship is a lifestyle and requires healing work and self-compassion

Find Your Cosmic Calling with Astrologer Natalie Walstein

Find Your Cosmic Calling with Astrologer Natalie Walstein
I am so excited to introduce you to Natalie Walstein, host of the Cosmic Calling podcast! She was one of my first mentors when I went full-time in my business and I’ve been inspired by her podcast for a long time as well.
I was really drawn to her in one of her episodes about the nodes and booked a reading in December 2019. When Natalie said that I would be working with large groups of people, I said there was no way. Her response was, “I guess you’ll have to do it scared.” That changed my life!
As a Career Astrologer at Soulshine Astrology, Natalie Walstein blends ancient astrological wisdom with modern, down-to-earth guidance to help creative souls and spiritual seekers discover their cosmic calling and align their life + career with the cosmos.
Natalie is also the author of Find Your Cosmic Calling: A Guide to Discovering Your Life’s Work with Astrology. This book helps you to decode your own astrology birth chart to uncover your life’s purpose and is the book I would recommend for learning astrology. I couldn’t put it down! Natalie has explained the concepts with beautiful clarity making it easy to grasp.
Some highlights from my conversation with Natalie:
A birth chart covers your soul’s mission, so parts of it may not resonate until later as your life unfolds.
- Astrology is interpreted differently by each astrologer. Find what resonates with you!
- Helping people to leave jobs they hate and transition into doing what they really love is what made Natalie choose career astrology.
- Natalie was introduced to spirituality at an early age but didn’t take it seriously until she had a serious illness and had a spiritual awakening.
- Looking at the symbols, she is able to feel their energy and see visions of what they mean and channel pages of information about them.
- Your birth chart is an accumulation of past lifetimes as well as this lifetime.
- Astrology can help people find what type of work will light them up and to decondition from the mindset of working to survive.
- As you use the book with your chart, check in with yourself and ask if you’re aligned.
- Learning astrology and your own chart is an ongoing process and you can focus on one piece at a time
- Natalie recently had another spiritual awakening while taking an angel messenger course and has been working with angel energy in her life
- Angel messages are about the bigger picture and loving acceptance

February Spirit Messages
Hello Spirit School listeners! January was an intense month for me personally. I got sick leading up to the launch of The Initiation and had to push back my mastermind but at the same time, I was expanding my team by two members.
I’ve been working with Spirit to understand my process of manifestation and the Initiation was an amazing experiment. I desired to have 44 people sign up for it and it did not seem like it was going to happen. I didn’t have the energy to do all of the typical marketing strategies so I leaned into trust and the 44th person signed up 10 minutes before the first live call! It was a really cool lesson for me. I’m choosing to highlight the things that went right even though so much went wrong and I hope you’re able to do the same.
The determination that I needed to harness to persevere is very aligned with the messages I received for our Spirit Messages this month!
The highlights from the February Spirit Messages:
- I don’t have the same commitment to my health that I do in my business
- We all have the inner saboteur archetype and being out of integrity is a confidence killer
- All of the small broken commitments compound to erode your trust in yourself
- I made goals in my human life this year to have more fun and learn to stop on ice skates, so I signed up for lessons to follow through on my word
- Spiritual growth and maturity will come from reflecting on the lessons of your experiences
- Honor the duality in the highs and lows of the month
- I feel it will be a powerful month for manifestation once you have completed a cycle
- New beginnings will follow the completed cycle through your awareness of the lesson
- With new opportunities come new challenges and lessons
The spiritual path can be lonely and I created the Spirit School Collective as a space where you can share your journey with one another. It is incredible to witness others and to be witnessed as you expand!

My Personal Development Journey
Happy New Year! This episode is my first recording of 2022, even though the Spirit Messages episode came out on January 2. After crossing the milestone of my second year of podcasting on December 22, I am excited to continue creating episodes when I am inspired!
I received the inspiration to share my personal development story in December, but it didn’t feel aligned to release it until now. In this episode, I am sharing my own personal development journey as well as some tips that you can use for your own.
Some highlights from the episode are:
- My official awakening was after the birth of my daughter in 2013
- I did not believe the many mediums who told me in readings that I could do this work
- The first reading I did scared me because it was my first experience with deep grief
- I grew up watching John Edwards and reading Sylvia Browne
- My first 3 years of development was in circles with the same mentor, meeting only once per month, making it a slow and steady path
- My devotion outside of that was in meditation, sitting in the power and connecting with my guide Skylar for guidance
- When I released the pressure to work for the public and accepted that my soul would let me know when I was ready, I had opportunities come to me
- After the birth of my son, I went full-time and came out of the spiritual closet
- I continued to develop under mentors, take workshops and do practice readings
- My performance anxiety with paid readings
- Spirit ALWAYS shows up
- My next challenge was that all of my clients wanted psychic readings and my Spirit team gave me an evidential psychic reading bootcamp
- Returning to mediumship showed me that it still works after a break
- I realized that my most profound development was from Spirit in the actual sessions
- Knowing your worth helps you achieve your mediumship goals, not the other way around
- So much of the development path is the inner healing work
- The experiences in our everyday life also help us in our development and mediumship references

Lecture Series: Manifestation Mindset from IGTV
Wednesday Dec 15, 2021
Wednesday Dec 15, 2021
This episode is from the Spirit School Lecture Series that highlights my live teachings in the areas of mediumship, spiritual and personal development, entrepreneurship and quality of life. Today’s episode is a compilation of IGTV clips on the topic of manifestation.
I share how my upbringing and early experiences shaped my relationship to money and dreams and how I was able to shift into a more abundant mindset. I have never studied manifestation, but just like in mediumship, I teach from my own experience and practices. I hope that you are able to take away a few insights to help you feel more abundant in your everyday life!
In this episode, I discuss:
- coming from a lower income family
- how I started out with a broke mindset and recurring debt
- my financially abusive first marriage
- my kind husband has bailed me out and brought a more stable energy
- when my mentor challenged my “I can’t afford it” outlook
- how hiring a cleaner resulted in my income doubling
- healing from my past mistakes and overcoming debt cycles
- spending money on fun and seeing the money come back unexpectedly
- letting go of what doesn’t make you happy
- learning to keep the money I manifested so easily
- how I used to shop to fill the void from my unhappiness at work
- how time freedom is the biggest motivator for me
- shifting out of a worst case scenario outlook to change your vibration
- the importance of recognizing if you have a positive or negative bias
- getting specific on what time freedom or abundance looks like in your life
- making decisions and creating boundaries to support your goals
- how putting a timeline on a manifestation is going to have you tested
- the importance of self acceptance despite external expectations
- replace unhelpful habits with something healthier

Interview With My Mediumship Mentor Dominic Boag
Tuesday Dec 07, 2021
Tuesday Dec 07, 2021
I am so excited to share this episode of my interview with my mediumship mentor Dominic Boag! I have been working with him for the past year as my mediumship changed after losing my cat Bender and experiencing grief for the first time. I love to watch Dominic demonstrate and enjoy his cadence as I am sure you will as well.
Dominic first began developing his mediumship in the Spiritualist Church after the loss of his father when he was fourteen years old and was working as a medium at sixteen. He describes his journey as being fairly natural and has allowed it to unfold with the guidance of Spirit.
In this episode we talked about:
- How he first realized that he was able to connect as a medium
- His experience balancing mediumship development as a student in school
- The confidence that comes from learning at a young age
- How his mother came to learn about his abilities and support him
- The shift in Dominic’s mediumship after his vision loss
- Learning to trust Spirit and to release the fear of being wrong
- How my mediumship improved after giving myself time to grieve
- Knowing that Spirit is beside us when we need to experience the human parts of life
- Allowing your own unique mediumship journey to unfold through Spirit instead of comparison
- Dominic gives his tips for developing mediums including to have fun!
It was incredible to have this conversation with Dominic and to share his voice and philosophies with you. I hope you will feel more confident in your own abilities and connection to Spirit having listened to this episode!

I Desire More - A Discussion With Luscious Hustle
Tuesday Nov 23, 2021
Tuesday Nov 23, 2021
I get to sit with the Luscious Hustle once again and discuss the concept of making decisions from DESIRE. This was a word I didn’t always resonate with, or know what to do with, but over the past year I have seen how valuable the inquiry “do I desire this” has been.
We pose the three questions:
- What comes up for you when you hear “Desire”
- When was a time you followed your desire and it didn’t work out?
- When did you follow your desire and it DID work out?
We share our experiences and talk about our upcoming 3-hour masterclass on December 21st called DESIRE
You can save $111 by registering before December 5th! Use code idesiremore

- Teachings on how your Spirit team (Guides, Angels, Ancestors) support you in achieving your desires.

Tuning into your higher self to reveal what is possible for your highest potential in 2022 - tuning into your desires.
-
Celebrating and integrating the lessons of 2021 to clear energetic space for what’s to come.

Hope to see you in the DESIRE Masterclass !

My Journey to Confidence
Tuesday Nov 16, 2021
Tuesday Nov 16, 2021
In this episode, I am sharing my journey to confidence in my personal life and mediumship development journey - as they are inseparable. In my experience, finding confidence is an inside job.
In addition to stage fright, I had many experiences that contributed to my lack of confidence and self-worth in childhood. I was told by a teacher that I would never become anything but a drug dealer when I was in grade four. I started smoking and spending time with people who were not moving in a positive direction. I was also bullied so severely that I switched high schools and ended up being home-schooled.
Although school was not a positive environment for me, I have always thrived in my career. I was recruited from a daycare job by a man willing to mentor me in his business. He gave me opportunities to grow with the company, and that was my introduction to the motorsports industry, working with men and excelling in my roles. I transitioned into the Indigenous health and wellness space when I planned on having a baby to have a more aligned lifestyle.
My introduction to the corporate world and female leadership was not a positive one. However, after witnessing an Indigenous woman in her power in a meeting, I asked how I could work for her, and she made it happen. Under her leadership, I was able to build my confidence because she gave me every opportunity to have projects with high visibility and leadership roles. Most of my mediumship mentors appeared to have her level of confidence but, at their core, really did not. I used the skills from my corporate career to work through the wounds and not-enoughness that came up in my mediumship development journey.
Though it is helpful to have mentors and teachers, it is ultimately up to us to do the work to heal our wounds and step into our power. Through healing in my human experience, my confidence in mediumship has expanded from the inside out. What I have learned to embrace is that being confident is a choice.
