    Curated Holiday Gift List: www.jennyshanks.com/shop

    Jenny was terrified of death as a little girl. The unknown of it sat heavy underneath everything. Then she discovered she could actually talk to the people on the other side of it. And everything changed. This episode is about what death actually is, what fear of it costs you while you are still alive, and what Spirit keeps telling Jenny in reading after reading about how to arrive at the end of your chapter feeling complete.

    What You Will Learn:

    • Why Jenny was afraid of death as a child and the specific shift that dissolved that fear entirely
    • The fan analogy that reframes what death actually is in a way that sticks
    • The story of a 101-year-old grandmother who transitioned feeling completely at peace and what she brought through in her reading
    • The story of a husband who spent a year planning retirement trips in a camper he never got to take, and what he came through to say about it
    • What "complete" actually means and why it has nothing to do with a perfect life
    • Why intuition is the navigation system that gets you to the end of your chapter without regret
    • What Spirit consistently says to the people it leaves behind

  • Does Spirit See Good And Evil? A Listener’s Question About Duality

    Text me or Drop a Voice Note Here!

    A listener asked Jenny how Spirit sees good and evil from a state of pure oneness. So Jenny did what she always does with a question too big to answer alone. She took it to Spirit. She sat in meditation, opened the channel, and asked directly. This episode is what came through.

    What You Will Learn:

    • What Spirit actually says about good and evil and why the label does not translate the way we think it does
    • How alcohol, drugs, and certain medications affect a soul’s true path and what Spirit wants us to understand about that
    • Why lessons keep repeating until they are received and what it looks like when a pattern is still waiting to land
    • The difference between 3D and 5D and why 5D is a way of being, not a destination
    • Why love and gratitude are the two frequencies closest to the portal Spirit communicates through
    • What it actually looks like to choose oneness on a regular Tuesday when the world is pulling you toward separation

  • Seven Things Grief Taught Me About Spirit"

    Text me or Drop a Voice Note Here!

    Four and a half years ago Jenny Shanks lost her aunt unexpectedly. She was the first person Jenny had lost since really stepping into her role as a Spiritual Medium. And when she passed, everything Jenny teaches and everything she believes was put to the test in the most personal way possible.

    In this episode Jenny shares seven things that grief taught her, written in the early months after her aunt passed and reflected on four and a half years later. Raw, personal, and full of practical advice for anyone who is in the middle of their own grief right now.

    The Seven Things Covered In This Episode

    1. Grief is not just emotional
    2. There is no right or wrong way to grieve
    3. When the dust settles we are often just beginning
    4. Even as a medium grief is still painful
    5. The dime and the penny
    6. Your grief is unique and cannot be compared
    7. Brighter days are allowed

  • Stop Telling Grieving People To Let It Go

    Text me or Drop a Voice Note Here!

    Every so often a client sits across from me and tells me that someone in their life said you just need to let it go. You need to move on. You need to get over it.

    And every single time I hear that I feel the same quiet frustration on behalf of every grieving person who has ever been handed that sentence like it is a solution.

    You do not need to let go. You need to learn how to hold the relationship differently.

    In this episode, I’ll share the reframe that changes everything about how we think about grief, connection, and what it actually means to heal after loss.

    What You Will Learn In This Episode

    • Why telling a grieving person to let it go is not just unhelpful but asking them to do something that is actually impossible
    • What a human spirit relationship looks like in practice and how to start building one
    • Why your intuition is the portal to connecting with your loved one in Spirit and where to start
    • The most powerful reframe in this episode: what if a memory is not something from the past but Spirit reaching through to you right now
    • Why the relationship with your loved one did not end when they passed and what healing actually looks like

  • The Spiritual Industry Doesn't Want You To Trust Yourself

    Text me or Drop a Voice Note Here!

    A medium once told me I was about to take off and that she saw a ring on my finger. I have been married for years. That one vague message is the perfect example of what keeps people coming back to readers for answers they already carry inside them. This episode names the patterns in the spiritual industry that keep you dependent, afraid, and spending, so you can spot them and take your power back. A good medium, teacher, or coach should be working to make themselves less necessary to you, not more.

    In this episode:

    • What happened at Lily Dale when Spirit came through with real evidence, then the message landed on "take off" and "ring"
    • Why vague messages are placeholders and not messages, and what a real message from Spirit sounds like
    • The difference between a medium who is a bridge and a medium who acts as the gatekeeper
    • The question to ask before you invest in any spiritual course: are you getting tools or paying for a TED talk?
    • The story of the woman who was told something terrible would happen to her brother unless she reached out, and the paid healing session that was offered right after
    • Why you are not responsible for anyone else's journey, and why Spirit does not operate in fear
    • The biggest lie in the industry: that intuition is a rare gift. You were born intuitive. You were taught out of it.
    • How logic buried your quiet knowing, and the pathway back to what was always yours

  • When fear overrides Intuition: What My Dog's Emergency Surgery Taught Me About Control

    Text me or Drop a Voice Note Here!

    When something goes sideways, where do you go first? Fear and ego will always get to the front of the line before your intuition does. I learned that the hard way when my dog Lily screamed at the top of the stairs and I walked into an emergency vet running on pure fear. It took over four hours in a waiting room before my intuition had enough quiet to speak, and what it said was simple. This episode is about what happens when we react from ego and fear instead of intuition, and how to catch it sooner than I did.

  • This Client Asked Me the Same Question for Three Years. Then She Stopped.

    Text me or Drop a Voice Note Here!

    You leave the reading feeling clear. Then a few days pass and the doubt creeps back in and you are already thinking about booking the next one. Jenny used to live inside that exact loop. Years in medical sales, seventy plus hour weeks, standing at every crossroads and handing her questions to someone else because she had stopped trusting what she already knew. In this episode Jenny breaks down the real reason one reading is never enough, walks through the three patterns keeping so many women stuck, and shares three client stories that show what happens the moment you finally trust the sign instead of chasing the next confirmation.

  • Six Moments My Intuition Spoke Before My Brain Could Catch Up

    Text me or Drop a Voice Note Here!

    Over the last few months Jenny Shanks has been doing something a little different.

    Every time her intuition spoke before her brain had a chance to catch up she pressed record. Right in the moment. Raw. Unscripted. No editing. No polish.

    Six clips. Six moments where Spirit was communicating in the middle of a regular ordinary day.

    And every single one of them is in this episode.

    This is not about intuition in theory. This is what it actually looks like when Spirit is communicating and you are paying attention enough to catch it.

    /

    Awakening Your Path - Live This November

    This episode is proof that intuition is already speaking. Awakening Your Path is where you learn to trust it.

    Jenny is teaching her three part course live this November. Reclaim your intuition and allow Spirit to be your guide. Waitlist members get an exclusive discount when enrollment opens on September 26th.

    Join the waitlist today at jennyshanks.com/ayp.

  • What Happened When I Finally Let Myself Be: My Experience At Lily Dale

    Text me or Drop a Voice Note Here!

    Something happened this year at Lily Dale that I’ve been trying to find the words for ever since I got home.

    Lily Dale is a Spiritualist community in upstate New York founded in the 1800s. Some people call it the witchy community. Others are deeply curious. And most people who walk through those gates for the first time have no idea what is actually waiting for them there.

    In this episode I share everything. The Healing Temple and the healer who I continued to receive from. The vulnerability of having someone tap into my energetic field without permission and what happened when I asked for protection. The Stump in the middle of the woods where over two hundred people gathered and Spirit spoke. Church service where my uncle came through on his birthday. And the package that arrived from my cousin days later that nobody planned.

    Plus the dreams that started the first night I got home. And why for days after Lily Dale she could barely get out of bed.

    This episode is a reminder of what becomes possible when you finally create space to receive. If you are ready to do that work in your own life, Awakening Your Path is for you.

    Awakening Your Path is Jenny's three part course designed to help you reclaim your intuition and allow Spirit to be your guide. The November Jenny will be teaching this cohort live (virtually) and the waitlist is now open. Join here.
