Expanded x Ep. 379 - Mediumship, Manifestation, and Unlocking Your Intuitive Gifts with Medium Karen McGowan
Clear your field, trust your truth, and let your soul’s unique frequency shine.
What if you stopped doubting your gifts and started letting them lead?
If you’ve ever felt a message come through a dream, sensed a shift when you walked into a room, or just *knew* something you “shouldn’t,” your intuition might be stronger than you think.
In this episode, Lacy and Jessica sit down with medium and energetic clearer Karen McGowan (aka Lacy’s mom!) for a no-gatekeeping conversation on what it really means to live with spiritual gifts. Karen shares it all — from her first spirit visit as a child to the symbols she’s learned to trust and the way she clears heavy energy from people and spaces. You’ll learn how she protects her energy, stays grounded while tapping into her psychic abilities, and bridges the spiritual with the practical.
As the veil thins ahead of Halloween, we explore the magic of Samhain, ancestral connection, and the power of spiritual sovereignty. This episode is your reminder to trust what you feel, set energetic boundaries like a badass, and stop second-guessing your gifts.
Trigger warning: Loss of a child and profound grief from 44:44 through 50:00
