The Comparison Trap on the Spiritual Path (And How to Break Free)

When Spirit calls you, it rarely makes sense to anyone else. Whether you’re just beginning to embrace your gifts or stepping more fully into your role as a medium, one thing is certain: not everyone will understand your path—and that can feel lonely. In this heartfelt solo episode, I’m speaking to the moments we all face as developing or working mediums... when others question our calling, doubt our direction, or simply can’t see what we see. If you’ve ever felt like shrinking, second-guessing, or hiding your connection to Spirit just to make others comfortable—this one’s for you.   In this episode, I share: Why feeling misunderstood is part of your path as a psychic medium How to trust your connection—even when others don’t How to recognize when someone is projecting their own fear onto you Ways to stay anchored in your truth without explaining or defending it A loving reminder that you don’t need validation to walk in alignment   This episode is for you if: You’re a developing or working medium who feels misunderstood You’re walking a spiritual path that not everyone in your life supports You’re ready to stop shrinking and start owning your sacred work   💛 Links & Resources: → Book a private reading or mediumship session → Join the April Mediumship Development Open Circles → Register for Hello From Heaven – April 16, 2025 (Online Mediumship Event) → Attend The Spirit-Led Path In-Person Workshop – September 2–4, 2025 → Join the waitlist for The Mediumship Mastery Circle (Sept 2025 – May 2026) → DM me on Instagram @mediumcourtneydawson   🕊️ Loved this episode?

What happens when you’re doing everything right—showing up, trusting Spirit, following your path—only to watch someone else thrive in the exact way you’ve been praying for? That gut-punch moment where your chest tightens, your energy drops, and suddenly, all your confidence is gone. ✨ Why her and not me? ✨ What am I missing? ✨ Maybe I’m not as gifted as I thought… Comparison is one of the sneakiest blocks on the spiritual path. But what if I told you that comparison isn’t proof that you’re behind—it’s proof that you’re being called forward?   In this episode, I break down: 💫 Why comparison sneaks in (even when you “know better”) 💫 How to shift jealousy into expansion instead of shame 💫 How to trust your divine timeline when doubt creeps in 💫 A powerful guided process to help you shift out of comparison and into confidence   It’s time to let go of self-doubt and step fully into your own path.
