Pets in Heaven, from a medium’s perspective. Will you see them again? Are they okay? Can they send signs? Are they alone? Today we’re talking pets in heaven, what I actually sense when animals come through, what they want you to know, and the signs they use to say “I’m still here.” We’ll also gently address guilt around their passing and bring comfort to any parts of you that may still wonder if you did the right thing. Because love doesn’t stop at the edge of this world.  Join me Live on Zoom for my Free Monthly Community Healing session!

Feeling stuck… but you can’t explain why? These 7 invisible energetic agreements may be running your life (even if you never consciously chose them).

This is about reclaiming choice. In this episode, you’ll learn: • What energetic agreements are (and how they quietly shape your choices) • Why these patterns are often protective, not “wrong” • The 7 most common agreements that keep people stuck: The agreement to stay smallThe agreement to trust logic over intuitionAllegiance to the underdog withinThe agreement to do it all aloneThe agreement to be the martyrThe agreement to give your power awayThe agreement to be spiritually responsible for everyone else • How to spot these agreements in real time (behavior + inner self-talk clues) • Simple ways to start shifting them through awareness, compassion, and new choices🌟Which of the 7 are showing up most in your life right now? 💜✨ Plus, I shared an invitation to a free workshop where you’ll learn how to create your own intuitive roadmap for 2026.  Save YOUR spot now: https://www.joyfulmedium.com/take-charge-2026-with-intuitive-edge Join me Live on Zoom for my Free Monthly Community Healing session!

Intuition isn’t something you’re meant to develop someday — it’s already guiding you. But in a world full of noise, urgency, and constant overstimulation, many people feel disconnected from their inner knowing and unsure how to trust themselves. In this episode of Spirit Speakeasy, we explore why intuition feels harder to access right now, how fear and overthinking cloud inner guidance, and why intuition rarely shows up the way most people expect it to. I share a personal story about a time I couldn’t hear my own intuition clearly — even while doing intuitive work — and what helped me reconnect. You’ll learn how intuition actually communicates, how to tell the difference between fear and inner knowing, and why intuition offers next steps, not full roadmaps. ✨ Plus, I shared an invitation to a free workshop where you’ll learn how to create your own intuitive roadmap for 2026.  Save YOUR spot now: https://www.joyfulmedium.com/take-charge-2026-with-intuitive-edge If you’ve been feeling stuck, uncertain, or overwhelmed, this episode will help you reconnect with the guidance you already have.

In this episode Joy shares what’s really going on when the veil feels thin: why this season heightens awareness, why your loved ones in Spirit are always available (not just on Halloween), and how to tune in without fear.
