Beyond Behavior? Exploring the Unseen

What happens when behavior science meets mediumship? In this thought-provoking episode of the ABA Mom Podcast, I sit down with psychic medium Sean Michael Rutherford to explore the intersection of psychology, belief systems, spirituality, grief, and human behavior. As a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), I approach this conversation through the lens of applied behavior analysis (ABA), critical thinking, and curiosity — asking how reinforcement history, perception, learning, and lived experience shape what we believe and how we behave. We discuss: Mediumship and personal spiritual experiences Behavior science and belief formation Grief, coping, and meaning-making How environment and reinforcement shape perception Science vs spirituality — can they coexist? Whether you’re a behavior analyst, ABA professional, autism parent, psychology student, spiritually curious listener, or simply love deep conversations, this episode invites respectful dialogue and open-minded exploration. ⚠️ Disclaimer: This episode is for entertainment and discussion purposes only.
