You Don't Have to Explain Someone Else's Pain

Why are we so uncomfortable sitting with someone else's pain?

In this episode, I'm reflecting on a beautiful email from a listener, sharing why I almost didn't release a recent podcast, and exploring something I see all the time in spiritual spaces...

Our need to explain.

To interpret.

To find the lesson.

To make everything happen for a reason.

We explore:

Why speaking honestly creates space for others to healThe difference between supporting someone and explaining their experienceWhy "everything happens for a reason" isn't always helpfulThe importance of consent when offering spiritual interpretationsAnd why sometimes the most powerful thing we can say is:"I don't know... but you don't have to go through it alone."

Because perhaps the greatest gift we offer isn't our wisdom.

Perhaps it's our presence.

I'm starting a circle, and you're invited.

Most people developing their mediumship are doing it on their own. From September I'm running a monthly development circle inside Spirit Social, where you practise with other people instead of just reading about it. Over 12 monthly live events, alongside daily card readings and live demonstrations.
