    What a Psychologist Told Me That Ended 17 Years of Anxiety

    What if the thing you fear most… never actually happens? This week I go deep and share a very personal story — the moment my husband was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia and my whole world collapsed in an instant. I was pregnant, caring for a toddler, and suddenly facing the unthinkable. My mind went straight into worst-case scenarios. That moment led to a profound shift in perspective — one that ultimately ended 17 years of anxiety. In this episode, I walk you through the mindset shift that stopped me from “dress rehearsing tragedy” and brought me back into presence, gratitude, and spiritual trust. This insight has guided my healing work for years, and I share it in the hope that it brings comfort and clarity if you’re navigating something hard. If your mind often jumps to “What if?”, this episode is a gentle reminder that you don’t have to live there. 🌟 In this episode, I share: What happened the day we received the diagnosisHow catastrophic thinking takes holdBrené Brown’s concept of “dress rehearsing tragedy”The Reiki principle that interrupts fearHow to return your energy to the present momentThe words my psychologist shared that changed everythingThe outcome of my husband’s cancer journeyA spiritual perspective for anyone facing uncertaintyA closing message thanking listeners and inviting them to discover their psychic gifts through the free 'What's your Intuitive Power Assessment at https://intuitivereiki.online/ Hosted by Lisa Brandis — bestselling author, founder of Intuitive Reiki International®, and intuitive channel for Anya — Connecting to Spirit is a sacred space for intuitive insight, energy healing, and soul-led transformation.

    I Froze on Stage… Then My Spirit Guide Took Over

    That was the moment I remembered I’m not alone... When I was asked to fill an extra 15 minutes on stage at one of the biggest festivals I’d ever spoken at, my heart started pounding.

As I opened to channel her guidance, the energy shifted. My fear melted away, and together we delivered a message that touched the entire audience.  In this weeks episode, I share how trusting my spiritual connection helped me move through fear, express from the heart, and turn a moment of panic into one of divine flow.

    Master Channeling Part 2: Surrender Isn’t Weakness — It’s the Gateway to Intuition

    What if surrender isn’t weakness, but the moment your intuition finally speaks? Discover how letting go can open the door to courage, clarity, and a deeper connection with Spirit. In this episode, I open up about something we all face on the spiritual path — fear, resistance, and the challenge of letting go. You’ll hear the powerful story of my student Kylie, who moved from deep fear of the non-physical world into a moment of surrender that completely transformed her connection with Spirit. I also share my own raw experience of burnout, and how surrendering in that season taught me what true trust really looks like. Together, we’ll explore how curiosity becomes the bridge to channeling, the difference between surrender and giving up, and a simple practice you can try this week to invite Spirit’s guidance into your everyday life. If you’ve ever doubted your intuition, tried to control the outcome, or worried that letting go makes you weak, this episode will remind you: surrender is not the end — it’s the beginning. It’s the gateway to clarity, courage, and deeper connection with Spirit. 🌿 Episode Highlights How fear and resistance show up when you begin channelingKylie’s transformation from fear to trustMy personal story of burnout and surrenderWhy curiosity unlocks deeper guidanceA simple practice to bring Spirit into your daily life🎧 Support the podcast: If this episode inspired you, you can help me keep creating and sharing messages from Spirit: 👉 https://www.buzzsprout.com/2411547/support A closing message thanking listeners and inviting them to discover their psychic gifts through the free 'What's your Intuitive Power Assessment at https://intuitivereiki.online/ Hosted by Lisa Brandis — bestselling author, founder of Intuitive Reiki International®, and intuitive channel for Anya — Connecting to Spirit is a sacred space for intuitive insight, energy healing, and soul-led transformation.
