Why Your Mediumship Feels Stuck (And How to Finally Trust Spirit Without Overthinking It)

If you're doing all the "right" things — sitting in the power, reading the books, showing up for class — but your mediumship still feels stuck, you're not broken. You're battling something way deeper than technique: your mind. In this soul-to-soul episode of The Connected Spirit Podcast, Courtney Dawson reveals the hidden reason Spirit feels distant — and exactly how to rebuild the trust you've been craving. Inside, you’ll learn: ✨ Why Spirit can only meet you where you’re willing to be met (not where you’re trying to force yourself to go) ✨ How self-judgment and perfectionism silently block your clearest connections ✨ The missing link between “understanding” mediumship and truly trusting Spirit ✨ Why your most powerful mediumship is born in lived experience, not polished performances ✨ How surrender, compassion, and grace open the doorway to a deeper spirit relationship If you’ve ever whispered to yourself, "Maybe I’m not good enough to do this..." — this conversation will show you the truth: You already are. You just have to trust it.

What happens when everything cracks open your health, your plans, your sense of safety— and Spirit suddenly feels… silent? That’s what I’m talking about in this raw, real episode. Because just a few days ago, I was on the floor in pain. Ambulance called. ER visit. And a diagnosis I wasn’t prepared for. This wasn’t a moment where I could “stay high vibe.” This was a moment that tested everything I teach. And it brought me back to the one thing I’ve learned over and over again: You don’t need to be okay to be connected. You just need to come back to the sacred—even when it’s messy. 💡 In this episode, you’ll walk away with: → A behind-the-scenes look at how I navigated fear, pain, and spiritual silence → The truth about what real trust in Spirit looks like (especially when life hurts) → 3 grounded spiritual tools to help you stay connected when you feel like shutting down → A powerful reframe if you’ve been wondering, “Have I lost my gift?”   If your mediumship feels quiet right now… If you’ve been scared to admit you feel disconnected… If your life’s been pulling you into survival mode instead of surrender… This episode is for you. You're not behind. You're not broken. You're in a moment that asks for more trust—not perfection. 🎧 Tune in now on Apple, Spotify, or your favorite podcast app. 🔮 Ready for clarity and connection again?

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?
