Unveiling The Psychic Medium: April DeMille In The Hot Seat

Unveiling The Psychic Medium: April DeMille In The Hot Seat

On the Own Your Essence podcast, guest host Stephanie Ann Webb interviews April DeMille, a psychic medium, grief coach, and trauma and toxic-relationship recovery specialist. April describes realizing her abilities in childhood, hiding them until age 38 due to fear, family reactions, and religious shaming, and later gaining confidence in owning her role. She says her intuition expanded most after her daughter’s death and explains how mediumship overlaps with grief and trauma work, attracting both traumatized humans and spirits. April emphasizes that grief is sacred, requires “sitting in the discomfort,” and is often avoided, contributing to addiction and illness; she encourages talking openly about loved ones and discusses how phrases like “everything happens for a reason” depend on a person’s stage of grief. She defines toxic relationships as dynamics involving mistreatment and loss of self, explains covert abuse and why leaving can be dangerous, critiques toxic positivity and spiritual bypassing, shares grounding practices like barefoot walking or baths, and invites listeners to book readings or discovery calls.

Journey Through The Dreamscape: Decoding Soul Messages With Claire Falcon

***This is part two of our conversation with Claire Falcon. If you missed part one, be sure to check out last week’s episode.*** Host April DeMille welcomes psychic medium and intuition teacher Claire Falcon to Own Your Essence and shares her services for psychic readings and coaching. Claire demonstrates her dream-interpretation framework using April’s recorded dreams, emphasizing identifying the dream’s overarching emotion, then analyzing symbols and people as aspects of the dreamer, especially within family “soul group” dynamics. They discuss a dream involving family members, a Holy Bible with a family tree, betrayal, addiction, pornography, sex-work themes in the family, and a Frankenstein-like attacker repelled with wasp spray, interpreting it as emotional/psychological processing, boundaries, vulnerability, and breaking ancestral cycles, reflected in April’s son Brayden and cousin Carrie. They connect a separate “missing a flight” dream to relationship themes, Aries season, and astrology, and note a lighter Easter/engagement-ring dream as transition and rebirth.  Claire Falcon is a psychic medium and teacher of intuition based between Berlin and Pennsylvania. Rooted in Jungian dream interpretation and astrological wisdom, Claire specializes in guiding seekers to reclaim their birthright: intuition as celestial beings having a human experience. She's known for teaching clients to distinguish anxiety from intuition, decode dreams for soul guidance, and reconnect with the mystical in everyday life. If you want to start tonight with your dream studies, grab her free workshop, where she'll also show you how your dreams are delivering guidance you might be missing. It's one of the fastest ways to start living from your intuition.  → Just click Free Class here: https://www.clairefalcon.com/new-page-3 clairefalcon.com [http://clairefalcon.com/] contact@clairefalcon.com [contact@clairefalcon.com] Instagram: @penn_falcon ✨ Work with April 1:1 If you’re looking to work with April privately, here are the booking links: 30-Minute Intuitive Breakthrough Reading https://calendly.com/ownyouressencepodcast/intuitive-breakthrough-reading-with-april-demille [https://calendly.com/ownyouressencepodcast/intuitive-breakthrough-reading-with-april-demille] 45-Minute Intuitive Breakthrough Reading  https://calendly.com/ownyouressencepodcast/intuitive-breakthrough-reading [https://calendly.com/ownyouressencepodcast/intuitive-breakthrough-reading] 15-Minute Discovery Call https://calendly.com/ownyouressencepodcast/breakthrough-discovery-call-15-minute [https://calendly.com/ownyouressencepodcast/breakthrough-discovery-call-15-minute] Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2464867/fan_mail/new] Working with April 1:1

Unlocking Intuition: Dreams, Astrology, And Mediumship With Claire Falcon

***This is part one of our conversation with Claire Falcon. Be sure to come back next week for part two.*** Host April DeMille welcomes guest Claire Falcon, a psychic medium and intuition teacher who uses dream interpretation and Western astrology.

Fun, Raw, And Unpredictable: Random Questions with April And Steph

Unhinged Q&A: Toxic Traits, Discernment, Manifesting, and Embarrassing Moments Host April DeMille and co-host Stephanie Webb do a lighter, “unhinged” episode of Own Your Essence, asking each other surprise questions. April names over-explaining as a defended toxic trait tied to people-pleasing and needing to justify herself, and both discuss autonomy, discernment vs. judgment, and trusting intuition. April describes a rare mediumship experience where a famous spirit seemed to seek permission to move on, challenging her beliefs about crossing over. Stephanie shares leaving a black-and-white, evangelical upbringing and embracing manifestation teachings despite fear of hell. They talk about instantly judging someone and being proven right, whose thoughts they’d read (Stephanie says the president), outgrowing seeing others’ “potential,” misophonia rage, beliefs they now cringe at (curses; reiki/psychics as evil), what they’d be arrested for, self-competition, useless talents, roasting themselves, embarrassing moments, and their “enter a room” theme songs. 00:00 Welcome and Setup 01:33 Toxic Trait Overexplaining 05:04 Afterlife Belief Challenged 10:24 Manifesting and Leaving Religion 12:57 Judgment vs Discernment 16:55 Reading Thoughts and Power 18:19 Outgrowing Potential Guilt 22:38 Energy Reading and Misophonia 25:31 Cringe Past Beliefs 25:38 Garage Psychics Curses 27:31 Deconstructing Church Fear 29:11 Trusting Inner Authority 30:14 Arrested No Explanation 32:20 Secret Competition 35:37 Useless Talents Tongues 36:59 Roasting Yourself 40:33 Embarrassing Moments 43:26 Parents You'll Miss 46:40 Theme Songs Goodbye ✨ Work with April 1:1  If you’re looking to work with April privately, here are the booking links: 🔗 30-Minute Intuitive Breakthrough Reading https://calendly.com/ownyouressencepodcast/intuitive-breakthrough-reading-with-april-demille 🔗 45-Minute Intuitive Breakthrough Reading  https://calendly.com/ownyouressencepodcast/intuitive-breakthrough-reading 🔗 15-Minute Discovery Call https://calendly.com/ownyouressencepodcast/breakthrough-discovery-call-15-minute Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2464867/fan_mail/new] Working with April 1:1

Breaking The Chains: Brandon Marshall's Path To Self-Discovery

Host April DeMille interviews magazine photographer and author Brandon Marshall on Own Your Essence. Brandon reflects on turning 40, earning his GED, attending two semesters of school, and publishing his third book (having written six). He discusses quitting alcohol three times and deciding on December 11th to stop for good, while still using marijuana and periodic mushrooms for spiritual grounding. Brandon recounts childhood abuse, being malnourished by his stepmother, and drinking to numb hunger and gain courage, leading to violence, juvenile hall, jail, and two prison terms. A later incarceration in Arizona became a catalyst for change and future goals. He describes two years of celibacy, simplifying life, disconnecting from TV, spirituality, and his book “My Life as Soul Foods,” which shares real stories of trauma, growth, and awareness, alongside his photography as an identity anchor after prison. Born in Los Angeles, Brandon Marshall experienced significant instability early in life. After his parents separated when he was five years old, he moved back and forth between Los Angeles and the rural area of Valley Springs. During his childhood, he witnessed domestic violence and suffered abuse. Brandon began drinking at the age of 11 and was in juvenile hall by 17. Over the years, he spent time in six county jails and, by age 25, served his first prison term. He completed his last prison sentence at 30. Since then, Brandon has worked hard to rebuild his life and create a new path forward. Today, he shares his story of resilience, healing, and transformation. https://artbp13.com/professional-portfolio https://bookstore.dorrancepublishing.com/products/my-life-as-soul-food artbyphotography13@gmail.com ✨ Work with April 1:1 If you’re looking to work with April privately, here are the booking links: 30-Minute Intuitive Breakthrough Reading https://calendly.com/ownyouressencepodcast/intuitive-breakthrough-reading-with-april-demille [https://calendly.com/ownyouressencepodcast/intuitive-breakthrough-reading-with-april-demille] 45-Minute Intuitive Breakthrough Reading  https://calendly.com/ownyouressencepodcast/intuitive-breakthrough-reading [https://calendly.com/ownyouressencepodcast/intuitive-breakthrough-reading] 15-Minute Discovery Call https://calendly.com/ownyouressencepodcast/breakthrough-discovery-call-15-minute [https://calendly.com/ownyouressencepodcast/breakthrough-discovery-call-15-minute]   Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2464867/fan_mail/new] Working with April 1:1
