Are You Always Trying to "Get Something" from Spirit?

What if no signs ever appeared again? What if your spiritual gifts never increased from where they are right now? Would you still sit in meditation? Would you still choose connection? Would you still walk on this path, if you there were no fireworks calling for you in a particular direction? What if all it was - was presence? Some of the deepest moments with Spirit are not always the loudest.  Sometimes they are the quiet moments where nothing happens...  except your heart opens. Erika Anderson is an evidential medium, teacher and forever spiritual seeker.

When Are You Ready to Be a Professional Medium (Or Healer or Teacher, etc) and Everything No One Tells You

In this episode, Erika explores one of the most common- and most complicated- questions in the spiritual space.... When are you actually ready to become a professional medium? (This can also go for healer, intuitive, channeler, teacher etc.) Moving beyond the idea of natural ability, she dives into the deeper layers of readiness, including emotional maturity, integrity, and the responsibility of holding space for others.  Erika shares honest reflections of what it really looks like to pursue mediumship full time, the very real experience of burnout, and the pressure that can come with turning a spiritual calling into a career. She also opens up about the beauty and challenges of the mediumship community- where connection and support coexist with comparison, competition and confusion.  Erika is an evidential medium and psychic. She also mentors others on their journey and teaches classes, workshops and provides readings!

Can You Be a Medium without Being Spiritual?

Do we over-spiritualize mediumship? Or not enough? In a world where mediumship is often framed as a deeply spiritual path (at least by me!) what happens if that doesn't resonate with you? In this episode, I break down the difference between mediumship as an ability and spirituality as a framework- and why the two don't necessarily go hand in hand.  I also share my own experience of how mediumship became a gateway into something sacred, while honoring that there are powerful mediums who don't identify as spiritual at all.  I wanted to create this conversation to open the door to a bigger question of: How do you feel as a medium, and is there a pressure to try to fit into someone else's version of mediumship or have you found your own.....? Erika Anderson is an evidential psychic medium. She is a mentor for others on their journey. She teaches classes, workshops and hosts events for developmental growth for mediums and psychics and channeling. She also offers soul readings, mediumship readings and group events/readings.  To learn more: www.spiritualmediumerika.com [http://www.spiritualmediumerika.com] and on IG@mediumerikaanderson [IG@mediumerikaanderson]   Much love to you beautiful people!

Humility in Mediumship: When it Stops Being about YOU

One of the hardest aspect for EVERY developing medium (no escape here, folks!) is releasing the ego and understanding the true responsibility of this work.  Mediumship is not about performance, validation, or being right. It is a sacred exchange between spirit and the sitter- and the role of the medium is to become a clear, humble vessel for that communication.  In this episode I dive into what ego really looks like in mediumship (and it is not always what you think). Why making the reading about you (the medium) disrupts the connection an the difference between the mind and soul in the reading.  Over interpreting distorts clear evidence, why do we do that? I also talk about one very important stage in mediumship- when the student knows enough to be aware, but just enough to be DANGEROUS.  This episode is a teaching and a reminder: true mediumship is rooted in service, humility and integrity.  Thanks for listening!
