How My Mediumship Student Became Confident as a Pro Medium in only 6 Months of Mentorship

The Connected Spirit Podcast

In this episode of The Connected Spirit Podcast, I sit down with my student Julia DeGroat — a naturally intuitive woman who always felt Spirit but didn’t know how to fully trust what she was receiving. After a spiritual reawakening during pregnancy, followed by a powerful sitting-in-the-power experience that both opened and overwhelmed her, Julia decided it was time to stop developing alone.

She joined one of my circles. Showed up. Practiced. And in just six months? She gave her first professional evidential reading — confidently.

Her story is going to remind you that your timeline is sacred. And you don’t have to do it alone.

🎧 Inside this episode, you’ll hear:

02:10 – Julia’s early signs of sensitivity (and how pregnancy reawakened her mediumship) 06:34 – The sitting-in-the-power experience that cracked her open 09:50 – What it was like to move from self-study into a guided mentorship circle 12:10 – Building confidence through practice, support, and surrender 17:25 – How she moved through fear, imposter syndrome, and energetic vulnerability 22:12 – The power of community when you're tired of figuring it out alone 26:40 – What surprised her most about giving public readings for strangers 30:50 – Why it’s not about being “born gifted”—it’s about trust, practice, and support 35:15 – Julia’s message to anyone afraid they’re not good enough to do this work

✨ This episode is for the psychic medium who:

• Feels isolated or unsure how to move forward

• Has been reading books, listening to podcasts, but still second-guesses Spirit

• Craves community, guidance, and a space to grow without ego or pressure

• Wants to feel confident, clear, and connected — in their gifts and themselves

You’re not behind. You’re not broken. And you’re definitely not making it up. You're unfolding — just like Julia. Just like every real-deal medium who said yes to Spirit before they felt “ready.”
