Ep 5: MEDIUM Fail 

In this conversation, Sarah and Jane discuss the terrifying possibility that a reading won’t be successful. What to do? How to recover? What tools can help in those moments?

Join the intrepid mediums as they journey through the scariest part; when spirit can’t be heard and there is a human expecting a reading. Is the mic on? Maybe not! They share a personal experience of a failure that turned into a win and emphasize the importance of being kind to oneself in the face of challenges.

In this episode, they discuss:

  • Uncle Bob’s reading and Jane’s insecurity about airing it
  • What does an ideal reading look like?
  • The pressure and responsibility of mediumship
  • Failure! How to deal - how to recover
  • Overcoming doubt and building confidence
  • A fail turned into a win
  • WWLGD ? How do we be super kind to ourselves in these moments? We ask ourselves, What Would Liz Gilbert Do?

Memorable Quotes:

“It's the medium's responsibility to open up a link, listen for folks on the other side, and then get a bunch of information in to clarify who we're talking to.”-Jane

“All of those beautiful things start to come through once the connection gets strong. And that's the beauty and the magic of a good reading. But they don't always go like that, do they?”-Sarah

“ Spirit's on the job! And as long as I get the hell out of the way, we're going to get somewhere good..”- Jane
