Can you describe your journey into becoming a spiritual medium? What experiences or events led you to embrace this path?
My journey began at four years old when I first started seeing spirit. When I was younger, I couldn’t tell the difference between the living and people who had passed over. With having such a hard childhood, I found great comfort in actually trusting spirit more than I trusted the living.
It has been a bit of a lifelong journey understanding Mediumship.
When I was 16, I ended up in the last stages of cancer and had a cerebral thrombosis on the main artery in my brain. They pretty much told me that I was going to pass away, but I knew that I wasn’t going to. I was probably the only one who knew this, including the other side.
Over that period, I spent a lot of time on the other side, coming back and forth. They would teach me about the other side and life, how it works, the cycle, how we come back again, and how we can watch over each other.
The other side works totally differently than here. They explained everything to me, and I was greeted by my gold angel, who actually healed me. Also greeted by my guide. And two of my past lives that have all been quite significant throughout my lifetime.
When I came back from being on death’s door, they still can’t explain today how I was healed and had no scar tissue where the blood clot was. The blood clot was the size of a grown man’s thumb, and the cancer pretty much dissolved and went away quite fast, with very little scarring as well.
I was the only person known of my treatment to be able to have children with no assistance – I had 3.
From there, life has been quite tough, but what spirit has showed me over the years is that the harder life is for many of us mediums, the more we have to give because we gain more understanding and guidance to offer people. A better understanding of life usually comes from experiencing a really hard life and understanding so many different things.
My life has probably been a little bit harder than it should have been because after passing away or being so close to it at 16, I wanted to try everything, do everything, have fun, and I’ve had a really good life, but a hard one as well.
How do you differentiate between intuition and messages from the spiritual realm during your readings?
For me, it’s quite easy how I use them both in a reading. I’ll get a feeling or intuition about certain things, and then I simply ask the spirit to explain it to me to back it up.
I work very closely with my loved ones, others loved ones and my guides.
I have a lot of loved ones on the other side, and sometimes I feel like I’ve come in contact with them in my living, So when they passed on the other side, they would help me as well. Intuition and messages from the other side work very well together. Sometimes, spirit might give me information, and then I use my intuition to interpret what they’re telling me, as well as to confirm that I am conveying the information correctly. They both work very well together, and they kind of need to work together.
What type of services do you offer?
I’m about to go on a tour around Australia, doing shows with some amazing music people. Shazza Leigh & Peggy. We are all great friends with Spirit putting us together. Our show is called ‘Music with Messages,’ our tour begins in October 2023.
I will be delivering messages of love and guidance from people’s loved ones, their guides, their angels, whoever’s around them.
Whoever comes through, that person can take the information from.
I also do readings and attend many expos, especially Living Wellness Expos. We also travel around and participate in various expos.
Additionally, we sell tea. My beautiful partner, Matt, is known as ‘the tea man.’ He creates teas that I have channeled to help with people’s health, including my own.
Matt is a constant tea drinker, and these teas are infused with crystal essence.
All the blends have been channeled, and you can find them on our website called ‘ET Energy Tea.’
I also teach Spirit Club, which happens every Monday on Zoom except during school holidays (I’m currently on holiday).
I created Spirit Club to bring like-minded people together and provide a safe space for people to practice, support each other, and learn. When I teach, I teach directly from spirit, just like in my readings. I also learn a lot through my classes because I channel everything that comes through.
I also support people with their personal growth and businesses, helping them step out and find their way. There are many amazing individuals who haven’t yet taken that step or lacked the support to do so. I travel around, and next year, we’re planning to travel even more extensively, doing service work for spirit. We’ve finally reached a point where we can do this.
I also offer energy healing, though most of my healing comes from the messages I receive.
Occasionally, I conduct workshops, so keep an eye out for those, they are very popular and book out very fast.. They are all part of Spirit Club, workshops are day long that include lunch and everything you need.
What methods or rituals do you use to prepare yourself for a mediumship session? How do you ensure you’re in the right mindset and energy?
I don’t engage in any kind of rituals; I simply switch on and switch off.
I’m very busy, so what I do is transition from one task to another seamlessly.
It’s effortless, and the only ritual I perform before a reading to invite spirit in is at the beginning when I talk.
During the initial part of the reading, I deliver a brief introduction so people know what to expect, what they’re going to receive, and how I work.
As I’m speaking, that’s when the spirit starts to communicate with me. Sometimes, they can interrupt my introduction, causing me to repeat myself because I forget what I’ve already said due to their presence.
Similar to what I teach in Spirit Club, it’s crucial that we take care of ourselves and engage in constant self-improvement. This, too, can be considered a kind of ritual because if we are not okay ourselves, we won’t be able to assist others effectively. Also always remembering what we believe is what we will experience.
How do you balance the emotional weight of dealing with grief and intense emotions while providing comfort and insights to your clients?
It’s really important when we do readings and when we are readers to step aside. I’m very much out of the picture when I do my readings. I do feel the emotions and I do sense things that come from the other side, especially how they passed. Handling that comes with experience. Over the years, you encounter various situations, and nothing is really scary or overly stressful on your body once you understand what’s happening. It becomes challenging when you don’t understand what’s happening.
Over the years, I’ve come to understand what’s happening. I know where the information is coming from, and I’m aware it’s not mine. This understanding makes things a lot easier.
As a spiritual medium, what advice would you give to someone who wants to develop their own intuitive and mediumistic abilities? Are there exercises or practices that can help them tap into their potential?
The most important advice would be to trust. Until you trust yourself, you can’t trust spirit, or anything else for that matter.
So, the most crucial thing is to work on yourself, learn to trust yourself, and trust the information you receive. Just stay aware, observe what’s happening during every reading and life in general.
What I teach is that we’re only as good as our last reading. I may not remember my readings, but spirit will show me what I need to learn from one reading to another. Additionally, trusting the information is paramount. Doing inner work on yourself and listening to feedback are also important. Feedback can help gauge if you’re doing a good job, especially if it leads to recommendations.
Surrounding yourself with the right people is crucial. Seek support from those who don’t have a big ego and genuinely want the best for you.
This is why I created Spirit Club, so people can have a constant support system, regardless of their level of development.
Being part of groups and immersing yourself in positive energy is another essential exercise for your development. Setting intentions and communicating with your team, which includes your guides and loved ones on the other side, is vital. After every reading, if I feel I could have done better, I have a chat with my team and discuss how to improve. Trust and having a healthy belief system is crucial, and the only time I mess up a reading these days is when I don’t trust the information I receive or fail to deliver what they’re telling me. Sometimes, I may have received the same information in multiple readings, hesitated, and then realized later that I should have shared that information. So, trust is key.
Belief is also most important, for example – if you believe you can see spirit then you have more of a chance you will.
If you believe you won’t get messages in a reading then you quite possibly won’t.. I have never had this problem because I know spirit would never let me down
If I don’t get messages- I am not listening.
