Diary of a Medium - Stories from the Spirit World

Em Stawicki - Your Soul Guide

Ever wondered if you’re psychic… or even a Medium? I believe Mediumship isn’t just for the “gifted.” It’s within all of us. Including YOU. Welcome to my Podcast Diary where I share the "weird", wonderful journey of discovering you’re a Medium. I’ll be sharing my own real-life stories and experiences that led me to stop second-guessing myself and fully trust in my connection. You’ll also hear soulful interviews with others who’ve uncovered their own mediumship abilities, often by accident and decided to follow the nudge to explore the possibilities that lie within them. Much Love Em x

    Ep15 The Unexpected Midwife - A Spirit's Support During Birth: Diary Entry 2

    In this deeply personal diary entry, Em shares a powerful and unexpected experience from the birth of her first daughter. What began as a challenging and traumatic labour became a moment of profound spiritual support when a calm, compassionate midwife appeared at her side, offering reassurance exactly when it was needed most.Years later, Em reflects on this experience through the lens of mediumship, trauma, intuition, and trust, exploring how spirit often shows up quietly, lovingly, and in forms we don’t always recognise at the time. This episode gently opens a conversation around birth trauma, spiritual awakening through life-altering events, and learning to trust what you experience even when others can’t validate it.What You’ll Hear• Em’s second diary entry and the moment spirit re-entered her life in a profound way• A vulnerable account of birth trauma and feeling unseen during labour• The appearance of a calming midwife named Hazel and the support she offered• The moment Em realised no one else had seen or experienced this nurse• How spiritual experiences are often rationalised away by others• The link between trauma, vulnerability, and spiritual awakening• Post-birth experiences with spirit communication and heightened sensitivity• How fear, overwhelm, and outside voices can silence intuition• Why trusting yourself is the foundation of spiritual connection• How spirit often communicates through subtle, loving signs rather than dramatic momentsWho This Episode Is ForThis episode is for you if• You’ve experienced something you couldn’t explain but knew was real• You’ve felt supported by an unseen presence during a difficult moment• You’ve gone through birth trauma, loss, or a life-altering event• You’ve questioned your intuition because others didn’t understand• You’re curious about spirit communication but unsure how to trust it• You want reassurance that you’re not “making it up”Resources + Connect With Em🌐 Connect with Emhttps://emstawicki.com/Listener InvitationHave a story from the Spirit World?

    Ep 14: Chatting to Christine Barath from Psychic Insights

    In this episode, I’m sharing a beautiful conversation I had with Christine from Psychic Insights by Christine — yes, she even has her own psychic app, how cool is that?! We dive into my journey of coming into mediumship later in life, the “weird things” that were always happening around me, and the moment everything changed after losing my dad while he was overseas.We talk about why I believe everyone has the capacity to be a medium, what it really means to “remember” your gifts rather than learn them from scratch, and how modern mediumship can be a powerful healing modality — for you and for the people you read for. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re making it up, if Spirit even cares that you’re trying, or if your life experiences have a purpose… this one’s going to land deeply.What You’ll HearThe story of how losing my dad opened the door to my mediumship abilities later in lifeThe “weird things” that followed me through childhood and why they were never randomWhy I see you as the gift — and mediumship as an ability you can remember and refineWhat it really means to communicate soul-to-soul, beyond the human bodyHow trauma, loss, and life experiences often awaken the “cycle breakers” in a family lineageMediumship as a healing modality: going beyond tick-box readings into deep heart healingWhy I teach a modern, non-traditional style of mediumship focused on closure, compassion, and truthThe power of letting Spirit lead the reading and trusting they know exactly what their loved one needsThe link between trusting your intuition in life and trusting your messages in mediumshipHow my students move from years of feeling stuck to offering powerful, professional readings in a shorter time frameWho this episode is for:This episode is for you if you’ve always felt a little “different” or “sensitive,” had strange experiences you can’t quite explain, or you’ve lost someone you love and feel them around you.It’s especially for the cycle breakers, healers, and quiet rebels who sense they’re here to change something in their family line — and are curious whether mediumship might be part of that path.If you’ve ever questioned your intuition, second-guessed your signs, or wondered whether you could actually be a medium… press play. This conversation will help you see your experiences, and yourself, in a whole new light.Resources + Connect With Emhttps://emstawicki.com/Connect with Christine:Connect on Facebook HereWebsite: www.ChristineBarath.comDownload Christine APP Here Subscribe + Review:If this episode lit something up inside you, share it with a friend, leave a review, and hit subscribe.

    Ep13 Becoming the Light I Needed: A Journey Through Inner-Child Healing and Mediumship

    Today I’m joined by the beautiful Catherine Canning—author, inner-child healing mentor, retired teacher of 40 years, and devoted mum through adoption. Cathy opens up about growing up in a turbulent home, the decades-long path that led her to EMDR, somatic work, and Brainspotting, and the moment she realised her “many inner children” needed to be seen, heard, and integrated. We also discuss the twisty path of her spiritual awakening (COVID in 2020 was a catalyst), leaving the church, discovering intuitive tools, and finally saying yes to her abilities inside my Mediumship Academy. This one’s tender, real, and a journey to self dscovery. The early “aha” that talk therapy validated her story but didn’t fully heal it—and what finally did Why we don’t have “one” inner child, and how different ages carry different unmet needs The 40-year teacher who vowed every child in her classroom would be seen and safe Saying yes to motherhood via solo adoption at 40 (and the prayer that called in the right soul) The moment mediumship “switched on” during practice Writing the book(s): bringing decades of personal journals into a voice that helps others name abuse and begin healing Why it’s never too late to start—your lived experience is wisdom someone else needs today If you’re healing a hard childhood, curious about inner-child work, walking through estrangement, exploring adoption (as a parent or adoptee), or you feel your spiritual gifts waking up and want a grounded way to work with them—this conversation is your gentle nudge.

    Ep12 Q&A on Spirit Communication & Protection

    Today I answer your most-asked questions about working with Spirit—protection, intention, boundaries, guides, and building a strong link. This is a practical, heart-centred Q&A to help you feel safe, confident, and in control of your connection. You’ll hear how I set my “on/off” switch, why intention is your best protection, simple ways to meet your guides, and what to do when your Clairs feel quiet. Protection without fear: Why intention sets your frequency (and how fear focuses more fear). The on/off switch: Staying open when you’re working—then closing so you can rest, parent, and live. Light-only intention: How I invite in loved ones “from the highest good” and keep boundaries clear. Meeting your guides: Questions to ask (beyond names and signs) and using guided self-healing time. Consent & connection: When sitters resist, when messages are minimal, and what that still communicates. Quiet phases: “Waiting” vs. training—how to strengthen under-used Clairs like a muscle. Build the link: Circles, purposeful meditation, and knowing your own energy first. Before a reading: My simple clear-set-open routine (why I avoid long rituals and rely on intention). Life balance: Avoiding burnout by choosing when you’re available to Spirit—and when you’re not. Mirror work: If Spirit crosses your boundaries, check where you can tighten boundaries in everyday life. Aspiring and emerging mediums who want clear, practical tools to connect with Spirit safely, confidently, and on their terms—without the drama or hierarchy. 🌐 emstawicki.com ✨ Explore your spiritual gifts with me → Mentoring Have a story from the Spirit World?

    Ep11 After a Life-Changing Encounter with a Medicine Woman, Mark shares his Journey to Embracing his Spiritual Abilities.

    Em sits down with Mark—intuitive energy healer, psychic medium, and founder of Salt, Light & Soul—for a wide-ranging conversation on “letting it in,” unmasking, and building real self-trust. From tower moments and changing environments, to being a straight male in a female-dominated spiritual space, to practical ways to protect your energy and strengthen intuition—this one’s rich. We also chat about Mark’s upcoming Intuitive Mind app and a magical new creek float + sound + energy healing experience he’s piloting. Meeting Mark + origin story: the healing that actually helped, and a decade of quiet study “Letting it in”: moving environments, alignment over approval, and feeling genuinely happy Unmasking & sacred boundaries: sharing your path with the right people, protecting what’s precious Mediumship as healing: closure, reconciliation, and the moment that changes everything Being a man in this space: stereotypes, showing up anyway, and staying “just a normal guy” who meditates Ditching the spiritual costume: authenticity over aesthetics Practical intuition: micro-meditations, walking/shower practices, knowing your energy Energy hygiene: protection, shielding, and why mentors matter How Mark works: inside a Soul Session—reading + energy work + integration New things coming: Intuitive Mind app (journaling + timeline for trust-building) and the creek float experience 🌐 emstawicki.com ✨ Explore your spiritual gifts with me → Mentoring Connect With Mark Salt, Light & Soul — Soul Sessions Website - saltlightnsoul.com.auInsta - @Saltlightnsoul https://www.instagram.com/saltlightnsoul/Facebook - SaltLightnSoul https://www.facebook.com/SaltLightnSoul/ Intuitive Mind app: Coming SoonSimple steps to learn and trust your intuition Creek Float + Sound + Energy Healing: a serene, in-nature session combining energy work + sound bowls while floating https://events.humanitix.com/sacred-flow Have a story from the Spirit World?
