What if the “zone” that athletes and musicians talk about is the same state that lets mediums connect with Spirit? In this solo episode, Sarah dives into flow state—that feeling of being locked in, tuned up, and fully present—and explores how it opens the door to intuition, higher consciousness, and mediumship.
Drawing on her background as a professional musician, Sarah breaks down what flow feels like in the body, why it seems to bend time, and how that sweet spot of focus + ease raises your vibration enough to hear, sense, and feel Spirit more clearly.
In this episode, Sarah unpacks:
What “flow state” actually is (beyond the buzzword)
How being in the zone helps you tune into your intuition and Spirit
Why overthinking kicks you out of flow—and what to do instead
Simple practices to slip into flow more often in everyday life
How to use creativity, play, and presence as a bridge to the other side
If you’ve ever felt “on a roll” creatively, lost track of time doing something you love, or wondered how to quiet your mind enough to connect with Spirit, this episode is your invitation to start treating flow as a doorway—not just a nice feeling.
✨ You don’t have to force your connection with Spirit. You just have to find your way into the zone.
“You have to believe that it’s possible to connect to the other side. You have to believe that you’re feeling energy, that you’re sensing energy.” “We are not meant to be in flow all the time, because then our flow doesn’t change and it doesn’t evolve.”
“Notice when you’re in flow. I guarantee it has something to do with being in the present moment and appreciating how good you are at doing what brings you joy.”
