Empowered Empaths

Join Kristin and Martha on this episode of Empowered Empaths as we welcome recovery
specialist Joe Mitsch to discuss the idea that our greatest challenges can be our most valuable
tools for our spiritual growth and evolution. When we observe life from a cosmic perspective,
we realize that we are here by our own choice, having the experiences that our souls know will
serve our growth and awareness. That realization, plus the fact that we are equipped with all
the tools we need to be successful, allows us to abandon the idea that we are victims of a
cruel and random universe. Our lives have meaning and purpose beyond the day to day
actions we perform by rote and Kristin, Martha and Joe discuss how this perspective impacts
their lives.

On this edition of Empowered Empaths, Kristin and Martha welcome Spiritual Intuitive, Medium
and Healer Deborah Hendrickson. She gives us a close up look into her journey to becoming
an intuitive counselor and medium and one of the most sought after readers around. As a
believer that we all have abilities, Deborah seeks to educate people and guide them to discover
their own inherent power and be their own healer and guide. We also discuss the practice of
mediumship and how it can provide peace and closure for those who have lost loved ones. We
talk about how it works and that not all mediums, and psychics for that matter, are created
equal.

Deborah Hendrickson, born in Baltimore, MD, grew up in Chattanooga, TN, and now resides in the beautiful and magical mountains of Western North Carolina. Deborah hails from a lineage of psychics, mediums, and healers. 

After growing up working to suppress her abilities, and trying to live a 'normal life,'  Deborah couldn't ignore what was truly her purpose in life. After many years working in Mental Health, Deborah was guided to use her abilities in the service of others, full time. Deborah believes she is merely a channel in which Spirit chooses to communicate and energy and love flows.  Today, Deborah's practice is based in the Light and Love of Source Energy (God) and Deborah understands her purpose is to utilize her abilities to be of service to others.

Join Martha and Kristin for a powerful show about being a mirror and how to ask questions without resentment.

How do you record a show when you have nothing to give? We don't know any empaths that aren't saying, "WTF" right now. Join Kristin and Martha for a show about validating how we feel with a big pick me up at the end.

I have been asked repeatedly by friends and clients when all this drama is going to end. Everyone seems to be exhausted on a level that is unprecedented in our human experience. Many of us have struggled to remain optimistic in the face of so much darkness and then feel guilty that we occasionally succumb to our fears. Now is the time to be easy with ourselves, to understand that it’s ok to feel human emotions and fears, after all, we signed up for this assignment and are equipped to pass through the storm with our light intact. Join Kristin and I as we share our experiences and the how we’ve managed to find our way back to sanity and serenity. Yes, it is possible! Love Martha

Does it feel as though your last nerve has been trampled on or that breathless anxiety is
waiting to jump you? Are you trying to remember the sensation of serenity? Do you feel like a
failure when “everything” finally gets to you and you collapse into fear and anger? If any of this
is relatable, please know that you are part of a very large club called Empaths on Overload. We
have experienced so much shock, trauma, and uncertainty over the past few years that it
sometimes feels mentally and emotionally suffocating. Spiritually, we may be tempted to feel as
though we’ve been abandoned and powerless as though darkness has the upper hand in the
world. The truth is that we are in the process of creating a new reality, one that reflects our
highest and best selves rather than our lowest inclinations. Big job for sure but we all agreed to
incarnate at this time, to contribute our unique talents and gifts to this process. We are not,
however, immune to the chaos and fear that accompanies any paradigm shift but we can
manage it with some proactive behaviors and changes in thoughts. Join Kristin and Martha as
they share their strategies for remaining hopeful and helpful. We can do this, friends. We are
built for this and are here at this time by design!

In this week’s edition of Empowered Empaths, Kristin and Martha had the pleasure of
interviewing Joseph Mitsch, a recovered addict and recovery facilitator. In this powerful and
enlightening discussion, Joe shares some of the experiences that helped shape his path as an
addict and how being sensitive may have contributed to his difficulties. He also talks about
how coming to terms with and learning to accept who he is, helped him to overcome his
“demons”. Being a male Empath can be a tough road to traverse unless met with kindness,
understanding, and mentoring. While our society is more accepting of a female Empath, men
may feel at odds with this identity and many suffer from addiction, depression, and other types
of psychological dysfunction. In this episode, Joe speaks with honesty and compassion, and
hope.

all of this? Can we find a small space of serenity inside ourselves? Are we really able to find joy

This week Kristin and Martha discuss the idea that the constructs and how we interpret them,
have affected our lives in a subtle but impactful way. Constructs are values, beliefs, opinions, and personal orientations about a particular, non-measurable event. Examples are love, fear,
depression. These things cannot be measured or quantified but are identified by behaviors.
There are many agreed-upon behaviors that will indicate that a person is “loving” or
“depressed” or “afraid” but the accumulation of behaviors do not and cannot give us a
concrete, one size fits all definition of a particular construct but the inferred behavior evokes
the belief that a person is kind or loving. We make sense of our world by identifying behavior in
ways that we can measure and this week’s discussion asks whether we can and should.

Come join Kristin Walker, Martha Juchnowski, and Ryan McCormick as they share their
thoughts, observations, and perceptions of current events and energies that are prevalent in
today’s world. Ryan McCormick is the host of Outer Limits of Inner Truth here on Mental Health
NewsRadio and shares his thoughtful insights with our audience. They also discuss how to not
just cope, but how to thrive without fear in this sometimes overwhelming world. Join us for a
lively and thought-provoking stroll through the collective consciousness of fear and into the
land of empowerment and hope. And yes, there is hope!
