Inconvenient Truths in Mediumship Development

Inconvenient Truths in Mediumship Development This episode was recorded in December, and it was based on some inconvenient truths that came up when I was preparing content about being a confident lightworker. Developing confidence is not an easy path, and it takes a lot of courage to step into this work. If you are not someone who does readings or serves the public, this episode will give you some insight into how vulnerable it is to show up in this way. Most of the inconvenient truths come back to taking action and seeing things from a higher perspective. We are here to have a human experience and that often means moving through discomfort. I hope that the truths I share provide some examples of how to build your own confidence as a lightworker, or as a human.
