Have you ever felt a presence, had a knowing that came out of nowhere, or experienced something you couldn't explain — and then spent the rest of the day convincing yourself it was just a coincidence? If that sounds familiar, this episode of The Connected Spirit Podcast is going to hit differently.

Courtney shares the story of the very first spirit message she ever gave — in a parking lot, at night, before she had a single class under her belt. A man in Spirit wouldn't leave her alone until she delivered his message to his daughter and granddaughter. She gave his physical description, how he passed, the whole thing. Both women could take all of it. And in that moment, everything changed.

If you've been quietly sitting on experiences like this and brushing them off, this episode gives you real, grounded answers.

In this episode you'll learn:

• The 5 real signs you're receiving spirit communication — not just intuition
• Why mediumship development is different from psychic work and why that distinction matters
• Why you don't have to have been aware of Spirit since childhood to be a developing medium
• What evidential mediumship actually looks like and why the evidence is always the medium's job
• Why formal mediumship training removes doubt, builds consistency, and changes everything
• The right reasons to pursue this path — and why it's sacred, not a shortcut

If after listening you find yourself nodding along thinking yeah, I've had that... that's not your imagination. That's Spirit.

If your mediumship development feels inconsistent no matter how hard you practise, this episode of The Connected Spirit Podcast is going to hit differently.

This week I sat down with Sunny Dawn Johnston, globally recognised spiritual teacher, author, and CEO of the School of Light. With 42 years in the spiritual field and 26 years of professional experience, Sunny brings a level of grounded wisdom that is rare in this industry. She has appeared on Lifetime, Gaia, Fox, and Coast to Coast AM and has helped tens of thousands of people reconnect with their soul, their intuition, and their spiritual gifts.

And what she shared in this conversation stopped me mid-sentence.

Most developing mediums are taught how to connect with Spirit. What almost nobody teaches is how to be present enough to actually receive what Spirit is sending. Sunny unpacks why scattered energy is the number one block to clear and consistent spirit communication, and what to do about it starting today.

This is not a conversation about doing more. It is a conversation about coming back to yourself so Spirit can actually reach you.

In this episode we cover:

• Why energetic presence is the real foundation of evidential mediumship
• How scattered energy blocks spirit communication more than ability ever could
• Why sensitive people burn out and how to build longevity as a psychic medium
• Sunny's personal five-step morning presence practice
• How to manage and maintain your energy before every reading
• The message the angels have been delivering consistently since the pandemic
• Why staying in your body is one of the most important things a developing medium can do
• The difference between spiritual escapism and genuine spirit communication

In this solo episode, Courtney Dawson explores one of the most common challenges in mediumship development: inconsistency. If you have ever had one strong, evidence-filled reading followed by another where the connection felt unclear or difficult to maintain, this episode explains why that happens.

Courtney shares why inconsistent spirit communication is often not about lack of ability, but about missing structure, technical foundation, and repeatable process. She talks about the gap in much of today's mediumship training, where developing mediums are often taught fragments of technique without learning how to consistently build, hold, and re-establish a link with the spirit world.

Drawing on her experience as a professional psychic medium, years of development circle work, and training at Arthur Findlay College, Courtney explains what supports stronger, more reliable evidential mediumship. She also shares how better training helped her move from hoping a connection would work to knowing how to work with Spirit in a clear and consistent way.

This episode is for developing and professional mediums who want stronger foundations, more confidence, and a more repeatable approach to mediumship.

• Why mediumship inconsistency is usually a training issue, not an ability issue
• What is often missing from mediumship education
• How a repeatable process supports stronger spirit communication
• What to do when you lose the link with a spirit communicator during a reading
• Why technical foundation matters in evidential mediumship
• How structured practice can support growth, confidence, and accuracy

If your manifestations keep stalling no matter how hard you try, the problem isn't your practice — it's the 95% of your mind running silently in the background. Spiritual hypnotherapist Lynnsey Robinson joins Courtney Dawson to expose exactly what is blocking your goals at the subconscious level, why most affirmations are working against you, and how to finally reprogram the beliefs that have been quietly running your life since childhood. This is the conversation that changes how you see manifestation, your spiritual gifts, and your own power to create.

WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER:

• Why visualizing and affirming only engages 5% of your mind — and what controls the other 95%
• How your subconscious was programmed before age nine and why that blueprint is still determining what you can and cannot manifest today
• The real reason your excitement around a new goal always fades — and what is actually happening in your mind when it does
• Why half the population is doing affirmations completely wrong and how to fix yours so your subconscious actually receives them
• How spiritual hypnotherapy goes beyond habit change to access past lives, spirit guides, and genuine soul-level transformation

In this sacred and thought-provoking conversation, Courtney Dawson sits down with psychic medium Nicole Newman to explore what's been quietly lost in modern mediumship — and how bringing the God-force, or divine Source, back into the work transforms everything. Together, they discuss how performance culture has overshadowed reverence, how ego subtly replaces service, and why true mediumship begins and ends with humility.

Nicole shares how reconnecting to the sacred enhances accuracy, healing, and authenticity in readings, and how mediums can anchor into divine partnership without dogma or religion.

If you've ever felt that something "holy" has gone missing in spiritual work, this episode will remind you what mediumship is really about — love, presence, and service.

In this episode of The Connected Spirit Podcast™, Courtney sits down with psychic medium and spiritual guide Tamara to explore the sensitive and powerful world of missing person mediumship.

With nearly two decades of experience in evidential mediumship and intuitive development, Tamara shares how her early search for identity shaped her spiritual gifts — and how she now supports families through ethical mediumship, grounded spirit communication, and investigative intuitive work.

Together, they discuss:

• What happens behind the scenes of a missing person case • How psychic mediums receive and interpret intuitive guidance • The emotional reality of working between the physical and spirit world • The importance of grounding, discernment, and spiritual responsibility

Tamara also offers guidance for developing mediums who feel called to investigative work, emphasizing integrity, evidence-based practice, and mediumship confidence.

This conversation is compassionate, educational, and deeply insightful for anyone interested in mediumship development, ethical mediumship, spirit communication, or the real-life application of Spirit-led guidance.

What if silence isn't an absence — but a gateway to Spirit?

In this intimate and inspiring conversation, Courtney sits down with Sue Hind, a Spiritual Medium, Teacher, and Bestselling Author of Born to Hear Spirit.

Born with a severe hearing impairment, Sue discovered early on that while the world's sounds were faint, Spirit's voice was clear. Her journey is one of courage, surrender, and learning to trust a form of communication that goes beyond words.

Together, they explore how to:

• Hear and sense Spirit in nontraditional ways

• Transform perceived limitations into spiritual gifts

• Navigate grief, doubt, and faith along the medium's path

• Stay grounded while working with energy and emotion

• Embrace ethical, evidential mediumship with heart

This episode is for anyone who's ever felt "different" — or wondered how Spirit might already be speaking through their own unique sensitivities.
