📝Episode Summary

This episode is one of the most personal and meaningful conversations I’ve had on the podcast. I’m joined by psychic medium Karen Docherty to talk about the Spirit World—but also about trauma, healing, and the raw, often confusing journey of spiritual awakening.

As someone currently navigating this path myself, I brought my deepest, most honest questions to Karen—many inspired by her appearances on other podcasts (all available on her website, and highly recommended, though not required to follow this episode).

We talk about the emotional and spiritual impact of abusive and controlling relationships, and how they can disconnect us from our intuition, power, and sense of self. We explore why some people are more attuned to the spirit world than others, particularly through the lens of gender, neurodivergence, and trauma.

Karen shares her wisdom on how the spirit world communicates with us—through numbers, signs, synchronicities, dreams, and intuition—and we get honest about how hard it can be to trust those signals, especially when fear, trauma, or self-doubt are present.

We also explore the fine line between intuition and intrusive thoughts, and how to tell the difference. One critical topic we dive into is the harm that can be caused by ungrounded or unethical psychics and mediums, especially to people who are already vulnerable or dealing with mental health challenges—often the very people who seek out spiritual guidance.

We break down some of the myths and misconceptions you’ll often hear—even from professionals—and clarify the differences between angels, guides, guardians, ancestors, and higher selves. We talk about the emotional challenges of walking a spiritual path, including how isolating and scary it can feel when others don’t understand—or even deny—your experiences.

Karen also shares insights from her mentorship program, created for those looking to understand or develop their own spiritual gifts, while respecting that everyone’s journey is unique.

If you’ve ever felt the pull of something more, or struggled to make sense of your intuitive or spiritual experiences—especially after trauma—this conversation is a gentle, validating, and powerful companion.
