Why Your Intuition Speaks Before Your Mind — And Why We Ignore It
Season 3 · Episode 1
Thursday, March 5, 2026 • Duration 14:29
Your intuition often speaks before your mind — but many people have been conditioned not to trust it.
In this episode of Connecting to Spirit, I explore the powerful relationship between intuition and personal responsibility, and why learning to trust your inner guidance can transform your life.
I begin by sharing one of the first lessons I learned during my early Reiki training — a simple but profound teaching about emotional responsibility and the stories we choose to hold onto.
From there, we explore what intuition actually is. Not something mystical or vague, but a powerful biological early-warning system designed to guide and protect us.
I also share a deeply personal story about my daughter that became a defining moment in my own journey of learning to trust intuition fully and follow it with courage.
If you’ve ever second-guessed your inner knowing, felt the tension between intuition and logic, or wondered how to develop stronger intuitive awareness, this episode will help you reconnect with the guidance that already lives within you.
In this episode you'll discover
• The Reiki teaching that changed how I take responsibility for my emotions • Why intuition often arrives before logic • How your nervous system processes intuitive signals instantly • Why we override our inner knowing • How Intuitive Reiki can help develop intuition and spiritual awareness
Learning to listen to your intuition may be one of the most important skills you ever develop — because the guidance you’re searching for has always been within you.

The Signs You’re Ready to Step Into Your Spiritual Calling
Season 2 · Episode 16
Saturday, December 20, 2025 • Duration 06:24
Are you truly ready to step into your spiritual calling — or is something quietly holding you back?
What if the nudge you’ve been feeling isn’t doubt… but an invitation?
In this Season Two finale of Connecting to Spirit, I share the real signs that tell us we’re ready to expand our spiritual work — whether that’s offering your first session, saying yes to a leadership opportunity, or finally trusting yourself as a teacher and guide.
This episode is for you if: • You learned Reiki or intuitive work for personal growth and now feel called to share it • You’re craving clarity around your next step as a spiritual entrepreneur • You feel ready to grow, but fear or self-doubt keeps slowing you down • You want your spiritual work to feel aligned, grounded, and authentic — not forced
In this episode, I explore: ✨ The subtle signs that show you’re ready to step into your calling ✨ Simple, grounded action steps you can take this week ✨ A powerful student story about confidence, courage, and saying yes ✨ Why readiness doesn’t come before action — it comes because of it
This isn’t about building something louder or busier. It’s about building something that resonates as truth.
Thank you for being part of Season Two. I’m so grateful you’re here, and I can’t wait to continue this journey with you in 2026.
With love, Lisa ✨

Say Yes to Service: Trusting Your Path and Letting Your Light Lead
Season 2 · Episode 7
Thursday, September 18, 2025 • Duration 10:45
Have you ever been invited into something that felt bigger than you — and your heart whispered “say yes” even though you didn’t feel ready?
In this episode, I share the story of my very first Reiki teaching opportunity — a moment of divine timing that opened the door to everything that followed in my journey. You’ll hear how saying yes to service, even when I felt unsure, became the turning point that shaped my path.
We’ll explore: 💫 The magic of opportunities that arise when you lead with service. 💫 Why you don’t need to have it all figured out to make a difference. 💫 How Spirit responds when you follow the quiet nudge of your heart. 💫 A channeled message from my guide, Anya, on the beauty of being of service.
Whether you’re a healer, lightworker, or someone hearing that inner call to step forward, this episode will remind you that saying yes from the heart is always enough.
🌟 Next Step If this episode stirred something within you, I’d love to invite you to join me in my Connecting to Spirit Bootcamp or a Live Channelling Masterclass. These spaces are designed to help you deepen your connection to Spirit and trust your intuitive gifts in a safe, supported way.
