Listen to the Episode
Carl’s Spiritual Awakening Began During Trauma
Carl explains that his mediumship journey began around ten years ago while struggling with severe PTSD, flashbacks and unresolved trauma.

overwhelming psychic awareness
The episode explores:

PTSD and spirituality
trauma healing
psychic sensitivity
spirit communication
emotional recovery
What began as traumatic flashbacks slowly evolved into something very different: a profound spiritual opening.
It’s a fascinating and deeply personal account of awakening through crisis.
The Reading That Changed Everything
Although Carl considered himself sceptical at the time, his partner eventually booked him a mediumship reading.
The medium brought through evidence that Carl felt was impossible to explain logically.
From that moment, everything accelerated.
The episode explores:
evidential mediumship
signs from spirit

Soon afterwards, Carl began experiencing:
orbs
shadows
spirit encounters

The Astral Experience That Changed His Life
One of the most extraordinary parts of the episode centres around Carl’s spontaneous out-of-body experience during the height of his awakening.
After seeing a giant angelic figure in his garden, Carl describes suddenly feeling ejected from his body and pulled through what he describes as:
the astral realm
bands of coloured energy
multidimensional space
energetic frequencies
spiritual dimensions
The episode explores:
astral projection
out-of-body experiences
spirit guides
consciousness
energetic realms
spiritual awakening symptoms
During the experience, Carl encountered:
his brother and sister in spirit
a huge golden bridge
a white coliseum
a guide named Theseus
who told him:
“You don’t realise how powerful you are.”
It’s genuinely one of the wildest awakening stories ever shared on the podcast.
Grey Wolf and Spirit Guides
Carl explains that “Grey Wolf” is the name of one of his spirit guides — a Native American medicine man who supports his healing and evidential work.
The episode explores:
spirit guides
healing mediumship
medical intuition
psychic senses
energetic guidance
evidential readings
Carl believes Grey Wolf particularly assists him with:
body scanning
energetic awareness
emotional healing
sensing physical issues
intuitive insight
It’s a really interesting conversation about the different ways mediums experience guidance from spirit.
From Window Cleaner to Platform Medium
One of the loveliest parts of the episode is hearing how quickly mediumship accelerated once Carl finally trusted what he was experiencing.
Before mediumship, Carl worked:
in catering
as a window cleaner
in everyday jobs completely unrelated to spirituality
Within months of attending his first spiritualist church development circle, he was already demonstrating mediumship publicly.
The episode explores:
development circles
evidential mediumship
trusting intuition
platform mediumship
spiritual growth
mediumship confidence
Carl explains that once he realised:
“All I had to do was say what I saw.”
everything suddenly clicked into place.
It’s such a relatable breakthrough for developing mediums.
Trauma, Healing and Why Spirit Saved His Life

The episode explores:
healing trauma
PTSD recovery
emotional resilience
spiritual healing
mediumship and mental health
divine intervention

enormous anger
emotional pain
resentment
unresolved trauma
Spirit communication eventually helped him:
understand his past
process emotional wounds
reconnect with purpose
rebuild his life
It’s a really moving conversation about healing through spirituality.
Forgiveness and Breaking Generational Trauma
Towards the end of the episode, Carl shares one of the most powerful spiritual lessons he has received from spirit: forgiveness frees the soul.
The episode explores:
forgiveness
generational trauma
healing family wounds
emotional freedom
spiritual growth
compassion
Through meditation, Carl says spirit encouraged him to understand:
his parents’ pain
their own childhood trauma
the emotional wounds they carried
This helped him release long-held resentment and view his family history differently.
Honestly, it’s one of the most emotionally mature conversations in the entire episode.

Why Boundaries Matter in Mediumship

The episode explores:
psychic overwhelm
