The Reluctant(ish) Medium episodes

  • The Way of Miracles with Dr. Mark Mincolla
    "There's a poll that was taken recently: Eighty percent of Americans believe in miracles. I added that ninety percent don't think they can be the one that generates it. The objective is to take those people who believe in miracles and advance them into the realm of producers, generators. And you don't wanna just say, 'Mother Theresa: Great, Beautiful!' It's you! You came here to produce miracles. You are a miracle. Your life is a miracle. What's not a miracle about you? I mean, everything about you is a miracle."


    I knew I had to speak with Dr. Mincolla when I saw his documentary "The Way of Miracles." I encourage everyone to see it! Here's what we cover in today's episode:
    • The Four Possibilities for Miracles
    • Revolutionizing Medicine
    • Why Your Consciousness is Powerful in Creating Health (or Otherwise)
    • How to Create Miracles
    • A 10-minute Exercise to Create Radical Change in Yourself

  • Your Spirit Baby May Be A Galactic Starseed with Deanne Crewe
    "I also look at [spirit babies] as coming from a higher interdimensional place. As soon as I say 'galactic', people freak out, but it's really this world beyond our earth, and so I deal with a lot of spirit babies and most souls coming in are starseed energy."


    What a total delight to speak with a fellow spirit baby medium! I learned a TON of from Deanne in this episode and can't wait to have her back! Here's what we cover:


    • Spirit Babies as Galactic Starseeds
    • Galactic Events that Can Delay Conception
    • The True Meaning of Karma
    • How to Feel Safe When Sh*t Goes Wrong
    • Deanne's Take on Grieving a Pregnancy Loss

  • Think Astrology Has All the Answers? You Haven't Met Human Design with Megan Blust
    "It's crazy how much human design can tell you...The type of environment you thrive in, how you digest food, how you're meant to interact with others, how others are meant to interact with you, how you're meant to create, how you're meant to dive into things... It's an incredible tool, and it really just, it sees you."


    I was blown away when I had a Human Design reading, and I couldn't wait to cover it in this podcast. Here’s what we cover in today’s episode:


    • The five types of Human Design
    • How do we know when we're not aligned with ourselves?
    • Why do I (Maria) like to do 100 different things all the time? And why am I such a snacker?
    • How to make the right decision every. single. time.

  • From the Practical to the Magical: True Wellness with Tandy Gutierrez
    “I was at that place of witnessing that I hated being a coach in certain ways, because I’m not going to specialize in weight loss. You don’t need to be skinny to be fit. That is not a marker of your wellness or your fitness. That’s not going to make you joyful, happy, anchored, or a whole person.”

    Listen for some real talk with Tandy Gutierrez about true wellness “from the practical to the magical” and everything in between. Here’s what we cover in today’s episode:



    • What is true wellness?
    • Spiritual components of wellness.
    • Living authentically (even if it means others get bent outta shape)
    • Witchy stuff like tarot, altars, and inviting guides to help us with our work
    • Shadow work

  • Surrender Is Scary (And It Works!) with Bailey Sutphin
    "Something came over me that said, 'You need to get help; it's time to recover.' And at this point everything from my spirit was still very much a whisper. It wasn't like it is now where it's like 'Okay this is The Knowing. Surrender a little bit more.'"

    I can't wait until you hear this amazing transformation story from Type A do-all-the-things to surrendering to the Universe's plan and riding the waves. In this episode we cover:




    • Listening to intuitive hits/nudges
    • Surrendering to things that don't make any sense (like when Bailey quit her job!)
    • How to feel the fear and surrender anyway
    Trigger Warning - We speak heavily about addiction, eating disorders, and pregnancy after miscarriage in this episode.



    A list of Bailey's favorite books:
    Transcending Infertility - Maria T. Rothenburger, PhD (yours truly)
    Signs and the Light Between Us - Laura Lynn Jackson
    Everything is Spiritual - Rob Bell
    Falling Upward - Richard Rohr
    How to Do the Work - Dr. Nicole Lepera
    Untamed - Glennon Doyle
    Untethered Soul - Michael Singer
    The Four Agreements - Don Miguel Ruiz

  • Can My Loved One Reincarnate as My Baby?
    "From a quantum physical perspective...all time exists right now. So we are in potentially thousands of bodies, right this very moment..."

    Today's episode comes from an email I received from someone who wonders about her loved one reincarnating into her daughter who's on her way earthside. I chew on the below ideas for a bit:









    • Is reincarnation a thing?
    • Incarnating into multiple bodies at the same time? What?!
    • How can a soul be both my loved one and my baby?
    • How do I talk to my loved one on the other side, if they have already reincarnated?

  • Manifesting Using "Blind Faith" with Karl Gruber

    • Why Karl chose to run 52 marathons in ONE YEAR
