Since 2013, Danielle Searancke, the Squamish Medium, has been doing the real work: mediumship readings, spiritual development, and building one of the most trusted communities in the field from the ground up.
As an Indigenous woman, mountain mama, and practicing medium, Danielle brings an honest and unfiltered look at what this path actually looks like. The highs. The hard lessons. The moments where spirit shows up and changes everything.
Spirit School has grown from kitchen table readings to a thriving global school for developing psychics, mediums, healers, and workers of the light. This podcast is where that teaching comes alive.
Expect real conversations, practical tools, and the kind of soul-deep reflection that reminds you why you started.
Grab a cup of tea. Spirit has something for you today

In this episode of the Spirit School Podcast, I welcome my long-time friend and fellow spiritual practitioner, Jessica Meils. This insightful conversation delves into Jessica's multifaceted journey as an international spiritual medium, intuitive healer, and death doula. They explore the serendipitous events and transformative experiences that led Jessica to her spiritual path, from her initial awakening after childbirth to her profound development under the mentorship of renowned medium Mavis Pittilla. The discussion also touches on the challenges and rewards of balancing a spiritual practice with family life, the importance of self-care in maintaining one's health while serving others, and the deep trust in spirit that guides their work. Join Danielle and Jessica as they share personal stories, spiritual wisdom, and a heartfelt exploration of what it means to live a life led by spirit.

Today’s episode is brought to you by one of our Spirit School Mentors, Payton Scroggins. He was inspired by recent conversations in the Spirit School Collective and the previous Spirit School episode to share how he was experiencing similar feelings of spiritual melancholy and loneliness. After a recent trip to Greece, Payton was inspired to share a new perspective he was given as a tool to help support managing these feelings. He hopes by sharing it will help bring light to others in a similar space.
Connect with Payton in the free Spirit School Community on Sunday, May 26 for his session, "Channeling with the Divine" or in the Collective for a monthly practice circle!

"I feel pretty lonely on this path these days - most of my friends don't understand me it seems, and lots of my previous friendships are changing and I even had one ghost me... I feel amazing when I'm in my work, but my human self feels quite lonely in the day to day and I'm super lucky to have a very supportive partner. What is your experience?
This was a comment left in the chat of the Spirit School Collective Chat last week and this episode can hopefully serve as a resource for anyone who feels lonely on the spiritual development path.

"Having a non-spiritual Life Partner deepened my connection to my Inner Spiritual World"
This is what I wrote on my recent Reel that landed with so many of you!
So many questions were asked about how I manage life being married to a non-spiritual, non-believer of all things spiritual!
You asked, and I answered, almost 2 hours of sharing the dynamics, the growth, the coping, the lessons, the gratitude I have for my husband holding so much love for me while I went on my own Spiritual Quest, grounding us in constant reality while I chased the stars in my quest for a mystical life. Loving me and sticking by me throughout.
