Spirit Talk

Psychic Shielding: What Actually Protects You?

One of the most common pieces of advice given to developing psychics is, "Never open yourself without protection." But is that really the foundation of spiritual safety?

In this episode of Spirit Talk, I share how my perspective on psychic shielding has evolved over the years. We explore the difference between energetic protection rooted in fear versus protection rooted in self-trust, presence, and a deep relationship with your own energy.

We'll also talk about unconscious energetic shields created through trauma, why discernment is more important than defense, and why grounding may be the most overlooked part of psychic development.

If you've ever worried about negative energy, questioned whether you're picking up someone else's emotions, or wondered how to strengthen your intuition without becoming fearful of the unseen, this episode is for you.

In this episode, we explore:

• What a psychic shield actually is

• Why trauma can create unconscious energetic barriers

• Why fear—not lack of protection—is often the real vulnerability

• The relationship between frequency, belief, and spiritual safety

• Why shielding can sometimes limit intuitive perception

• How to recognize your own energetic signature

• Discernment vs. protection

• Why grounding is essential for intuitive development

• What leaves us energetically vulnerable

• Simple shielding techniques that support rather than isolate your energy

June Energy Update

In this episode, I share a spontaneous mini energy reading for June 2026 after the original topic shifted as I sat down to record. June arrives with a clear, grounded frequency that feels like truth being revealed and life becoming easier to see for what it really is.

This month carries themes of clarity, truth, and alignment through honesty rather than effort. There’s a natural invitation to stop looking outside yourself for answers and instead listen more deeply to your inner knowing. As old beliefs and patterns fall away, June supports a quiet release of what no longer fits.

I also share a personal reflection on time feeling faster this year, and how a slow, restorative day helped me feel the subtle deceleration in June’s energy.

The episode includes an intuitive look at:

• The energetic tone of June 2026
• The shift away from hustle culture into presence
• The scent of June (jasmine after rain) and its symbolic meaning
• The colours of June: sky blue and soft pink
• A channelled message on gratitude as a daily grounding practice

The guidance for this month is simple but powerful: presence is alignment. A daily gratitude practice is offered as an anchor to help return to yourself and the present moment.

On this episode of Spirit Talk, Andrea and I dive into one of those conversations that feels like you’re sitting in on two friends talking honestly about life, healing, spirituality, and becoming more yourself.

We actually begin the episode halfway through a hilarious discussion about whether or not we’re going to swear in this episode… and from there, the conversation unfolds naturally into something both deeply meaningful and incredibly human.

Andrea opens up vulnerably about her recent breast cancer journey and what it has been like standing on the other side of that experience. We talk about the shifts that happen when life cracks you open — the way challenges can deepen your relationship with yourself, your body, your intuition, and what truly matters.

Together, we explore self-compassion, people-pleasing, nervous system healing, authenticity, spirituality, and the lifelong process of learning to come home to yourself.

There is laughter in this episode. There is depth. There are moments of tenderness, honesty, and reflection. It’s a conversation about healing, but also about living fully while we’re here.

Topics we explore:

• Andrea’s breast cancer journey and healing
• Self-compassion and authenticity
• Nervous system regulation
• People-pleasing and perfectionism
• Spirituality and personal growth
• Learning to reconnect with yourself
• Finding joy and humour through difficult seasons

Hello Spirit Talkers ✨
In this episode, we’re diving into a topic that almost everyone has wondered about at some point… soulmates.

But not in the way you were taught growing up.

---

💫 In This Episode:

• Why the traditional idea of “one soulmate” is only a small piece of the truth.
• What a soul group really is—and how souls travel together across lifetimes.
• The different forms soulmates can take:
  • romantic partners
  • family members
  • friends
  • brief but powerful connections
• Why time doesn’t define the depth of a soul connection.
• The deeper purpose of soulmate relationships:
  • growth
  • healing
  • awakening
  • remembering who you truly are

---

🔮 A Personal Share

For the first time, I open up about a deeply meaningful experience—
a dream (or something beyond a dream) where I was shown my soul group.

This moment shifted how I understand connection, belonging, and the evolution of the soul… and it felt important to share it with you now.

---

🌱 Key Takeaway

Soulmates aren’t here to complete you—they’re here to activate you.

Some will feel easy and loving.
Others may feel intense or even challenging.
But all are part of your soul’s expansion.

---

💭 Reflection Question

Instead of asking “Have I met my soulmate?”
Try asking:

“Which soulmates are in my life right now—and what are they here to show me?”

🎙️ Spirit Talk — What’s in a Name? + April Energy Update

Hello Spirit Talkers ✨
In today’s episode, we’re diving into two powerful themes: a mini energy update for the second half of April and a deep, soulful exploration of the meaning and magic of names.

---

🔮 Mini April Energy Update (Mid–Late Month)

The energy this month is activated, fast-moving, and full of momentum.

• There’s a strong “go get it” energy available right now
• Action is supported—but intentional action is key
• Without direction, this energy can feel chaotic or scattered
• Even the smallest aligned steps are building something meaningful

✨ If you’re noticing synchronicities everywhere, you’re in alignment—keep going.
✨ If not, you’re not behind—pause and ask: what am I being called to begin?

This is a time of:

• New beginnings 🌱
• Following intuitive nudges (“breadcrumbs”)
• Building momentum toward something that can fully bloom this season

Important:
With all this activation, emotions may rise to the surface—especially old pain.

• This isn’t a setback—it’s transformation
• Feel it, move it, release it
• Your body is asking to clear space for what’s next

---

🎨 Energetic Colours for April

These colours may show up as signs, support, or themes:

• Pink
• Orange
• Yellow (and yellow-based tones like green)
• Red
• Lavender (a very specific, almost angelic message—this may be a synchronicity for you)

---

🌼 Oracle Message

Pulled from Messages from the Spirit of Nature Oracle by Dr. Steven D. Farmer:

Dandelion

---

💫 What’s in a Name?

Names are more than labels—they are energetic signatures.

In this episode, we explore:

• How names carry vibration, meaning, and identity
• The idea that names are not random, but part of a deeper soul blueprint
• How we grow into our names, and they grow into us
• The emotional and personal journey of embracing your own name

You’ll also hear reflections on:

• Naming children and the weight and responsibility it holds
• The energetic difference between full names, nicknames, and spoken resonance
• The possibility that names are chosen or agreed upon at a soul level

---

🔮 Names in Mediumship

Names are often seen as the “gold standard” in readings—but are they really?

We explore:

• Why names can be one of the hardest things to receive intuitively
• How spirit communicates through images, feelings, and symbolism—not language
• The difference between validation vs. true connection

✨ A powerful story is shared about receiving the name Ursula through the image of an octopus—showing how spirit uses personal symbolism and memory to communicate.

---

🧠 Key Takeaways

• Names carry energy, but they are not everything
• Essence is louder than language
• Not receiving a name is not a failure—it’s often a different form of communication
• Spirit meets you where you are and uses what you understand

The deeper question becomes:

Can you feel the essence behind the name?

There are moments in life where something has been quietly building… and then one day, you realize it’s time.

In this episode, I share something that has been on my heart for years — something I’ve been guided toward, resisted at times, and ultimately learned to trust.

This isn’t about being “the most intuitive” or having it all figured out.
It’s about following the pull.
It’s about listening when something deeper keeps nudging you forward.

I talk about:

• The journey that led me here (including a full circle moment from 4 years ago 👀)
• How my own intuitive development has unfolded over time
• The role of self-doubt, comparison, and learning to trust your own path
• What my astrology, numerology, and human design reflect back to me about this work
• The realization that I’ve been preparing for this for years — even when I didn’t see it

And… I’m finally sharing something I’ve been sitting on for a long time:

✨ The Spirit Talk Intuitive Development Circle is open.

This is a 6-week small group experience designed for those who feel called to deepen their intuition in a grounded, supportive, and real way.

Inside the circle, we’ll explore:

• Psychic abilities + how they uniquely show up for you
• Mediumship + connecting with spirit
• Working with your spirit guides
• Energy work + awareness
• Meditation practices
• Practice readings (in a safe, supportive space)
• Group discussion, Q&A, and real-time guidance

This space is not about doing it “right.”
It’s about discovering your way.

If you’ve been feeling the pull…
If you’re curious…
If you’ve ever been told you’re intuitive and didn’t know what to do with that…

You are so welcome here.

If this episode resonated, feel free to share it with someone who might need to hear it 🤍

In this powerful and expansive episode of Spirit Talk, I sit down with “cosmic throat singer” Matthew Kocel for a conversation that feels just as multidimensional as his music.

Matthew shares the deeply personal and spiritual journey that led him to embody this unique path. What begins as a story rooted in traditional music twists and unfolds into something far greater—guided by surrender, synchronicity, and a calling he couldn’t ignore.

Once pursuing a more conventional path in the music world, Matthew experienced a profound shift when everything he thought he wanted fell away. In that space, something new emerged—an unexpected reconnection to sound as a healing force and a gateway to higher consciousness.

We talk about:

• The turning points that led him from rock musician to sound healer

• The moment he discovered the power of his voice and throat singing

• How synchronicities guided him into alignment with his purpose

• What it really means to channel sound as a bridge between worlds

• The role of vibration in healing, transformation, and awakening

Matthew’s work blends throat singing, overtone chanting, and intuitive sound to create what many describe as a deeply transformative, almost otherworldly experience—often compared to entering altered states of consciousness through sound alone.

His music has reached audiences around the world and is even featured in meditation work by Joe Dispenza, where it’s used to help open the heart and deepen inner awareness.

At the heart of it all, Matthew’s mission is simple yet profound: to awaken the human heart and reconnect us to the deeper truth that everything—literally everything—is vibration.

🌿 Final Thoughts

This conversation is a reminder that sometimes the path isn’t linear, it’s mystical.

When we surrender what we think we’re here to do, we make space for what we’re actually here to become.

In this episode of Spirit Talk, Brandee shares personal updates, energetic insights, and reflections on spiritual growth. From celebrating the end of daylight savings time to discussing collective awakening energy, this episode moves through real life, healing, and soul wisdom.

In This Episode

Finally Saying Goodbye to Daylight Savings
The clocks have officially stopped changing where I live and I could not be happier. When I read the news I literally started dancing and ran to tell my kids. They were… significantly less excited than I was. But for me this feels like a small but meaningful victory for our daily rhythm and well-being.

A Sweet Memory: Grandma’s Lipstick
A quick story and reflection inspired by a memory connected to my grandmother and lipstick. Here's the nudge to have your loved ones in spirit help you pick a symbol that represents them.

A Magical Evening of Sound and Energy
I attended a beautiful event at a wellness centre called Solidago. The space is incredible and the energy there is something special. The founder left a long career in education to build a spiritual wellness community and it shows in every detail of the space.

The evening included a powerful sound experience that went far beyond a typical sound bath. The throat singer who performed created a deeply moving experience and I’ll actually be featuring him on an upcoming episode of the podcast.

Upcoming Speaking Event
I’ll be speaking at the Modern Medium Social in Pitt Meadows, BC on May 30th. I’m really excited to be part of this event and connect with the spiritual community there.

Energy Update for March
January and February felt strange energetically, but March feels different. There is a rising energy right now. Many people are feeling activated, like a fire has been lit under them.

Another wave of spiritual awakening is happening. Some people are experiencing their first awakening, while others who woke up years ago are feeling another layer of activation. With awakening can come shock, anger, or frustration as people begin seeing corruption or dysfunction in systems they once trusted. That reaction is part of the process.

What I’m really loving right now is the activation energy. People are waking up, stepping into awareness, and feeling called to move.

Coming Soon: The Spirit Circle
I’m currently developing something I’m incredibly excited about called the Spirit Circle. It will be a space where people can practice and develop their spiritual abilities together in a supportive environment. If you’ve been wanting a place to explore your intuitive gifts, this will be for you. Booking details will be available soon and I’ll share more in an upcoming episode.

Collective Card Pull
For this episode I pulled Shape Shifter from the Angels and Ancestors deck by Kyle Gray. This card may actually be becoming a “stalker card” for the Spirit Talk collective. Its message is about transformation, adaptability, and the ability to move between energetic states as you evolve.

Old Soul Wisdom
We end the episode by talking about the idea of “old souls.”

The term can easily be misunderstood. Being an old soul doesn’t necessarily mean someone who has lived the most lifetimes. It really refers more to spiritual advancement and depth of experience.

Some souls develop wisdom gradually across many lives. Others may gain profound growth in fewer incarnations through intense or accelerated experiences. Neither path is better than the other. Every soul has its own journey.

Souls grow “old” through experience, not time.

Before incarnating, souls often plan experiences that will help them learn what they still need to learn. Sometimes a soul may want to take on an extremely difficult life to grow quickly. Guides may caution them, but ultimately the journey belongs to the soul.

If you feel like an old soul, your wisdom may have come from gradual growth, from hardship, or from a combination of both. However the path unfolded, awareness comes through lived experience.

Thank you for listening to Spirit Talk.

It’s been a minute… and in this episode, I’m catching you up, sharing a powerful personal spirit story, and diving into a rapid-fire list of 23 things I’ve learned over the years as an energy reader.

This one is layered. Personal. Practical. A little mystical. A little grounded. Just the way we like it.

🌅 A Message from Spirit: “Face the Sun”

I share a beautiful synchronicity that happened at work involving a woman named Gladys, a bus ride to East Hastings, a mention of Philip Avenue… and how it became a clear hello from my grandparents in Spirit.

In a season that has felt heavy and chaotic, that moment shifted everything for me.

Spirit’s message was simple:
Share your light. Face the sun. Shine anyway.

We talk about:

• Living in the world after spiritual awakening

• Navigating melancholy and collective heaviness

• The healing power of signs from loved ones

• Why people seek mediums

• And the reminder that you can be your own medium

The more you believe, the more you receive.

---

🌿 Coming Soon: Spirit Talk Development Circle

If you’ve been wanting to develop your intuitive gifts in a safe, supportive space, I’m working on something special.

An online Spirit Talk Development Circle is in the works.

This will be:

• A place to strengthen intuition

• A community of like-hearted people

• A space for energetic growth and accountability

⚡ 23 Things I’ve Learned as an Energy Reader

Rapid-fire style. No particular order. Just lived experience, observation, and intuitive knowing.

Here are some highlights:

1. Cats are multidimensional guardians. Dogs protect the physical. Cats guard the energetic.

2. Coincidences don’t exist.

3. Stretching and fascia health support intuitive development.

4. The Universe speaks in synchronicities.

5. Babies see auras and spirits.

6. Some people are soul-linked from other incarnations.

7. Reincarnation is not rigid. Loved ones can return in overlapping timelines.

8. A soul can live more than one life at once.

9. Sensitives need serious energetic maintenance. (Salt baths, nature, washing hands, movement.)

10. Love is the ultimate healer.

11. Clear your corners. Energy collects there.

12. Plants communicate and uplift a home’s frequency.

13. Water clears and conducts energy. (Float tanks, showers, intentional use.)

14. Selenite is the mother crystal. It clears, charges, and supports spaces.

15. Repeating animal symbols carry messages.

16. Loved ones in Spirit “meddle” more than guides do.

17. Advanced guides often indicate advanced or accelerating souls.

18. Friday the 13th shows how collective belief creates energetic outcomes.

19. Linear time exists for the human experience.

20. Souls may incarnate as trees, animals, rocks, elements.

21. Sunlight on the eyes supports intuitive clarity.

22. Be mindful of mirror placement, especially in bedrooms.

23. Your interests are purposeful. They may be your light pathway.

I also share a fascinating personal experience with a coppernite worry stone unexpectedly triggering past-life recall during my son’s lacrosse game.

---

🔎 Past Life Clarification

I revisit my past life regression episode with Karen Hible and clarify something important.

After learning that slavery in the United States ended in 1865, I realized the life I described (which felt post-1900) would not have been one of enslavement but more likely sharecropping on former plantation land.

The emotional truth of that life still stands. But accuracy matters. And I felt called to correct it.

---

💚 A Final Reminder

The world may feel turbulent. Heavy. Chaotic.

But Spirit’s guidance remains steady:

Face the sun.
Share your light.
Shine anyway.
