Since 2013, Danielle Searancke, the Squamish Medium, has been doing the real work: mediumship readings, spiritual development, and building one of the most trusted communities in the field from the ground up.

As an Indigenous woman, mountain mama, and practicing medium, Danielle brings an honest and unfiltered look at what this path actually looks like. The highs. The hard lessons. The moments where spirit shows up and changes everything.

Cycles and Schedules - The Birth of Goddess Week

Episode 156

Thursday, April 21, 2022 • Duration 36:36

Cycles and Schedules - The Birth of Goddess Week

I have been wanting to talk more about spiritual entrepreneurship on the podcast for the past year, but I had a lot of healing and deconditioning to do first before I could do so openly. As I mentioned in the previous episode, there are not a lot of spiritual mentors treating their practice as a business and teaching about that side of it. This episode intertwines my journey with PMDD and how I have structured my business to allow for one week off every month to honour my feminine energy. Your cycles as a lightworker are important and I even have a module for members of the collective that goes more in depth about why.

Topics covered in this episode:

Instead of being upset, my clients appreciated me showing them that it was possible to take time off in their business
A minimum of 2 weeks off per year is not conducive to work/life balance
I hired a coach who talked about having a week off per month because that was a goal of mine when I went full-time in my practice in 2020
My therapist recognized that the times of extreme reaction and rage were because I was suffering with PMDD
I was able to track my cycle with the Stardust App
I had a thought that this rage was related to me not honouring my feminine
My desire for a week off per month and not being able to work during my PMDD “hell week” were aligning and Goddess week was born
Entrepreneurship is creative, not prescriptive
Goddess week is for preservation and I learned a lot in the first two months
In January, I was forced to rest when I got COVID and in February, I did not honour my break from social media and was triggered by a DM
I had a peaceful week in March that allowed me to put my family first
In April, I was able to take my family on vacation without needing to reschedule anything and my PMDD symptoms were nonexistent
Goddess Week may be a new norm for spiritual entrepreneurship and it is an act of self love
Think about what days and what time you enjoy doing your readings
Track these cycles and test out different schedules to get clarity

The Transition to Charging for Spiritual Services

Episode 155

Thursday, April 14, 2022 • Duration 47:16

I haven’t covered this topic on the podcast before now, but my program The Calling is all about how to make the leap into charging for spiritual services as an entrepreneur. I had to teach myself because no one was really talking about it! My first mentor told me that I should not be considering my work as a medium to be a business, which really made the transition to paid readings a difficult one for me. A lot of shame came up around money and spirituality that I've had to walk through.

I want to share my journey with you and also some signs that you might be ready to start charging for your spiritual services or raise your prices. I know these signs well because in addition to my own experience, many of my clients come to me when they are ready to take the leap! Almost immediately after going full-time in my practice, people were hiring me to help with creating structures for their businesses so that they could focus on the work they love.

Some topics I cover in this episode:

Wanting to understand my gift deeply before considering practice readings for the public
I set a goal for myself of 150 free readings before I would begin charging
My first paid readings were at an event held by a friend for $20 per person, then referrals
Increasing prices as expenses for my online business increased
Paying for my development with the money from my readings
Figuring out pricing to replace my corporate salary
The connection between pricing and how I felt about myself
Some healing is intergenerational in the spiritual space
The first story we carry is the belief that we shouldn’t charge for our gifts
The second story is, “How can I charge $X for a specified amount of time?”
The third story is worrying that people won’t be able to afford your price
The final story is, “I am not good enough yet”
As I develop and invest my time, the price needs to reflect that
There is a lot of healing that comes up as a human on this path
This is a lifetime path, so there is no rush to get to the next destination

Teaching about entrepreneurship is a passion of mine and I can’t wait for the next round of The Calling, a 3 month experience, which starts on May 18!

April Spirit Messages

Episode 154

Friday, April 1, 2022 • Duration 28:26

Hello Spirit School Listeners! I’m so happy to be back with the April Spirit Messages. If you follow me on Instagram, you know that I had to step away from my business and my practice for three weeks in March due to a family emergency. It feels like yesterday that I recorded the last spirit messages and I feel like I’m not the only one who felt personally attacked by March!

I am starting a 12 month series of masterclasses that will begin in April with Discover Your Personal Session style. It is for anyone - whether you’re already serving the public or you’re aspiring to do so one day! No matter what your modality, you will learn about what your magic is that sets you apart. This course will be free for anyone in the Spirit School Collective and there will be a 90 minute Q&A in the community as well! You can also choose to just attend the masterclass.

April will be an exciting month in the collective as we have a few more classes and events! Our guest mentor Lynn Tucknies is my Emotion Code practitioner and her sessions have been life changing for my family. We will also have classes on Chakras 101, Manifesting with Synchronicity and Clearing Low Vibrational Energies by members of the collective.

We are going to be moving to a new platform this summer and I am so excited for the expansion and changes I have planned for the Spirit School Collective!

Highlights from the April Spirit Messages

In March, I learned that in times of chaos, we learn a lot about ourselves and our priorities
I learned that I am a family first person even though I love working
Some of you may be the opposite, shifting your energy from being all about your family to find what lights you up
When we aren’t making necessary shifts, chaos comes and we are fundamentally changed on the other side of it
We are surrounded with multiple conflicting truths at once and we get to choose ours
As a person with a positive bias, I am able to see beauty in the darker experiences
We have it backwards when we try to control things we can’t and are apathetic to the things we can
A lot of people feel stuck in jobs and situations that they could choose to change

Lecture Series: Inspiration & Worthiness IGTV

Episode 153

Tuesday, March 22, 2022 • Duration 27:03

This episode is from the Spirit School Lecture Series that highlights my live teachings in the areas of mediumship, spiritual and personal development, entrepreneurship and quality of life.

In this episode, I share how I surround myself with people who inspire me by embodying the qualities that I admire. What we see as possible helps us to expand and dream bigger. I also talk about how important mindset and self-talk are to your overall health and quality of life. Worthiness is not something we can receive elsewhere, but rather something that we need to claim for ourselves.

Some of the main points from the episode are:

- Staying small because we aren’t inspired

- I am always inspired and seeing what is possible so dreaming big is easy

- Find people who have qualities that you admire

- I share my struggles to show what is on the other side of fear

- Looking to others from a place of inspiration instead of comparison

- You can go back to what you’re comfortable doing after taking a leap

- Shifting from a mindset of negativity or worry to seeing more positivity

- Your quality of life starts with how you look at the world

- History repeats itself and there is beauty even in difficult times

- It is important that my children learn to receive love and compliments

- Self talk impacts our physical well-being

- Worthiness is not given, it’s claimed

I love my Instagram audience and our live conversations! If you want to get in on the conversation next time, follow me @squamishmedium on Instagram.

Lecture Series: Personal Power & Your Dream Life from IGTV

Episode 152

Tuesday, March 8, 2022 • Duration 35:00

This episode is from the Spirit School Lecture Series that highlights my live teachings in the areas of mediumship, spiritual and personal development, entrepreneurship and quality of life. Today’s episode is about manifesting your dream life and cultivating personal power. It is from a few IGTV videos and I hope it inspires you to call in the schedule and life you love.

Recently, I decided to outsource my weekly laundry and that made me feel so abundant! Time freedom has always been a focus for my dream life and I love finding more ways to manifest it.

In this episode, I share how I called in my dream weekly schedule as an entrepreneur by allowing myself to dream big. I share about the shift from staying small to expanding so that I can inspire others by shining brightly. Have a journal handy to follow along with my exercise to manifest your dream week!

Some of the main points from the episode are:

My love for the creativity of entrepreneurship
Women pursuing their dreams despite limiting beliefs
Being clear and specific with our words when manifesting
The uncertainty when you take the leap as an entrepreneur
Speak from the heart and show up authentically
Realizing your power inspires others so there is no need to dim your light
Doing what scares you offers invaluable growth
Having boundaries around your cycles and time
How to manifest your dream week
Manifesting from feelings and emotions
Devotion and following your intuition leads to downloads
Learning how to find balance in your routines to optimize your own energy
Cultivating self love and personal power without external validation

I love my Instagram audience and our live conversations! If you want to get in on the conversation next time, follow me @squamishmedium on Instagram.

March Spirit Messages

Episode 151

Tuesday, March 1, 2022 • Duration 32:25

As always, the world of Spirit inspires the monthly Spirit Messages through my own life and experiences. I have been going through a dark night of the soul since November and was feeling the loneliness that often comes with these times. I shared an inspired post on Instagram and it resonated with hundreds of people, reminding us all that we are not alone when we are doing our deep inner work.

We tend to focus on the light but the shadows stay in our body and will come up eventually. I am often thanked for being vulnerable on the podcast and in classes. Vulnerability must come naturally for me because I feel like it is part of sharing authentically. I know it can feel unsafe and like it is only for our close circle, but what if we expanded beyond that so that more people could feel seen in the world? Imagine if we were to process and share these things as they come up to release them instead of carrying them around.

I have been struggling emotionally and was feeling bad because my life is so beautiful. After feeling this way for a couple of weeks, I decided to join a breathwork session that was offered through a course I am in. I have avoided breathwork because of its vulnerability but this ended up being one of the most powerful experiences I’ve ever had in my life. It broke me open and there were sounds that came out of me from a version of myself that I didn’t know existed. It’s often in these moments of crumbling that we are brought back into devotion. When we feel like we are spiraling and don’t have control, the answer is to take a seat and tune within.

This path means surrendering to something greater than ourselves and the unpredictability of these cycles. I don’t believe in consistency as a goal because we are not the same person every day. We need to honour the ebbs and flows and allow ourselves space to rest when we need it. The momentum created will sustain us when we take a break.

Another thing to remember is that we all have blind spots, which is why we hire mentors and coaches. Sometimes emotions and patterns that we carry are not even our own. Working with healers and mentors allows me to hold space for the people who are looking to me and tapping into my energy. Don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it. If we want to have it all, we cannot do it alone.

Celebrating Historical Black Mediums

Episode 150

Tuesday, February 22, 2022 • Duration 48:11

In honour of Black History Month, this episode highlights Black mediums in history, Sojourner Truth and Le Cercle Harmonique. Unlike my usual episodes where I riff on an inspiration or idea, I did a lot of research and prepared notes to ensure I was sharing accurate information about these amazing historical mediums.

Although I have an appreciation for the structure and awareness that spiritualism has brought to mediumship, my guides have ensured that my approach to mediumship has been through the lens of my Indigenous culture. I consider myself lucky to have had the opportunity to learn from elders at my corporate position in Indigenous health and wellness. I reconnected to my culture through this experience since residential schools prevented me from being immersed in it growing up. It is important to remember that mediumship and spirit communication has existed as long as we have been here on earth. We have always communicated with our ancestors and I invite you to learn about your own culture’s history with mediumship.

As I reflected on my research for this episode and the impacts on society that these people had, I have been considering what I will leave behind as my own legacy through my work as a medium and inspirational speaker. Take some time to think about what you share of your beliefs and opinions and how you want to be remembered from your imprint on the world.

Sojourner Truth highlights:

Sojourner was born into slavery as Isabella Baumfree in New York state in 1797
Isabella was the first Black woman to sue a white man and win in court when she fought for custody of her son
In 1843, Isabella changed her name to Sojourner Truth, declaring that she would travel to preach truth and work against injustice
Around 1856, she moved to Harmonica, Michigan where her spiritualism journey began
Anne Braude, a lecturer at Harvard Divinity School talks about how Spiritualism in America was informed by the traditions of enslaved African people in North America
Many abolitionists and feminists had a connection to spiritualism and most working mediums were women
At the time of her passing in 1883, Sojourner Truth had never learned to read or write, but her lectures changed the cultural fabric of the United States
