Celebrating 100 Episodes! My Journey into Podcasting, Mediumship & Tarot 🎉

Hi everyone, I’m Maria Gonçalves, a professional Evidential Psychic Medium, Mediumship and Tarot teacher, Speaker, Author—and now officially 100 episodes into this podcast journey!

This special solo episode is raw, real, and straight from the heart. I'm taking you behind the scenes of how this podcast began—from my back injury that opened the door to mediumship, to the fear I had meeting my first mediums, to the incredible guests and deeply personal stories shared over the last year and a half.

💫 In This Episode, You'll Hear About:

  • The spiritual awakening that started with a back injury
  • Why the psychic fair was just something to do on a bored Sunday
  • How fear and misinformation slowed my mediumship journey
  • My first time pressing "record" and why I couldn’t go solo at first
  • Funny behind-the-scenes podcast mishaps (including mic fails & vanishing episodes)
  • The magic of community and the courage it takes to tell your story
  • Grieving moms who shared signs from Spirit—and why their voices matter
  • My journey creating the Euro Tarot Deck—coming Fall 2025
  • Why every card has a deeply personal story behind it
  • What it really takes to follow your intuitive calling (even if you're scared!)


  • Tools I use to create each episode: Descript, ATR2100x USB Mic, Zoom, Buzzsprout, Audacity, Canva and lots of courage!

🎤 Thinking of starting your own podcast or intuitive journey? This one’s for you. I share it all: the doubts, the signs from Spirit, and the power of just saying YES—even when you're scared.
