7: Unveiling the Psychic Gifts with Lisa Williams

[: 00:00:38

[00:01:32] Lisa Williams: My name is Lisa Williams. I'm a psychic medium. So for the last, oh gosh, now I sound really old, but for the last 30 years, I've been working as a psychic medium. But when people say to me, what do you do? I'm like a psychic medium. They go, oh, you're a psychic on the street. And I'm like, no, so I've been doing this work for a long time, and now I teach and I go around the world. I've written several books, had TV shows and everything else. So it's been really my life's lesson of connecting with people, their energy just so many different things.

[: 00:02:06

[00:02:12] Cherie Lindberg: Beautiful. So How did you trust and embrace your gifts and maybe share a story about how some of those gifts like you're saying.

[: 00:02:20

[00:02:29] So when I was growing up, it was not uncommon for my grandmother to have a deck of tarot cards on her mantelpiece and for people to be lining up and trying to get a reading and her phone ringing off the hook So, going into my grandmother's house, ironically I wasn't really close to her.

[: 00:02:47

[00:02:59] And I'm like yeah, don't speak to dead people. And she said, no, you will. You'll be in America. You'll be famous. And I was like, not really. And then obviously. it all transpired, when a psychic tells you these things, you expect it to be immediate, but it doesn't actually happen that way.

[: 00:03:16

[00:03:34] were frustrated. my grandmother said, give her some leeway because She has got this gift it really does need some honing. But I was very young,

[: 00:03:44

[00:04:05] it's remarkable. I mean, there's so many stories I could tell you. it's just incredible,

[: 00:04:10

[00:04:19] Lisa Williams: I totally remember.

[: 00:04:21

[00:04:34] And probably about a week beforehand, this girl said to me, she said, I'm a medium. And I went, okay, my grandmother does that. And she said, and you can too. And I'm like, yeah, no, no, no, no, no. so anyway, she was selling timeshare with me, and her name was Amanda. Sorry if I'm calling her out, but she was amazing.

[: 00:04:51

[00:05:04] she said, well, let's see if you can do this. I'm like, yeah, right. I don't know about this. So. I went, and I, thought I was making up. I said, there's a man standing at the end of the bed. She said, who? And I said, I don't know.

[: 00:05:19

[00:05:31] And I went, no, oh my god, of course we'd had something to drink and I was literally just having a moment and freaking out. But that was the first time, I ever tried to do it. what was interesting about this is I've been playing around with it for a very long time.

[: 00:05:50

[00:06:05] Cherie Lindberg: So after that, did it take you some time to trust or did you just start practicing or just started to naturally open up?

[: 00:06:14

[00:06:21] I bought myself a pendulum. you go out and buy all of these tools of the trade, And so, at that point. I started to mess around I've done a few little connections for friends of mine, but it wasn't really anything serious.

[: 00:06:37

[00:06:52] It was so bizarre because I was engaged to him. And it was so intriguing to be able to have an insight into it. but I started to practice and play around and it was within six months that I ended up having my first client.

[: 00:07:07

[00:07:10] Cherie Lindberg: Well, you and I met because of your spiritual, entrepreneurship group. And you agreed to have a brain spotting session with me.

[: 00:07:19

[00:07:21] Cherie Lindberg: I'd love to hear your thoughts and feelings about that

[: 00:07:25

[00:07:41] And I am very much into the mind into the science behind things because, doing this work as a psychic medium you're going to encounter skeptics I call them the septic skeptics You really need to have some science behind it.

[: 00:07:53

[00:08:00] I was away. And there was a point that I really was intrigued. And so I started to look at it. And a lot of the time, whenever I talk to people in this industry is that I can't charge this amount of money, or I can't, and it's always around money. So I decided to choose money,

[: 00:08:18

[00:08:41] There was a circumstance that somebody said, okay, we need to raise some money for something. it wasn't a personal thing. It was for somebody else. and in my head, I went, okay, where's that fee? So I went back into that Friday night when the guy John used to come around and I went, Oh, so you're just going back into that fear again Lisa.

[: 00:09:00

[00:09:22] And it was the day I was having dental surgery, which is my two biggest fears, a tornado, and then dental surgery, that happened on the same day. And so we then lost power the day after and half of the following day I live on the internet.

[: 00:09:36

[00:09:59] And I'm not kidding you. As soon as the internet went on and I'm like, okay. Trust Lisa. I have to say everybody needs brain spotting session.

[: 00:10:07

[00:10:09] Lisa Williams: You didn't. But if you are listening to this, it's amazing.

[: 00:10:13

[00:10:24] Cherie Lindberg: Well, I just wanna say, Lisa, that your brain caught on very quickly. And so you recognize the patterns and triggers then you're going back to where it originated and also soothing the younger part of you that held that old information. Be able to come into the new mindset, the new perspective and release any scarcity or fear around that. So that is that is unusual for some folks. But I know you've done a lot of personal work.

[: 00:10:53

[00:11:09] Lisa Williams: absolutely. It was really interesting. how it all opened up, how it all sort of became this big aha moment. I think that was probably the right thing to say. It became this massive aha moment. This, oh, that's interesting. Wow. Huh. Interest. And so all of those things came about it was incredible how it triggered, I didn't use it per se, but I kind of worked with it because obviously learning neuroscience, you talk about the, the eye accessing cues and everything else.

[: 00:11:43

[00:12:03] There's so many different avenues and, techniques that I've worked with. Wow. Wow, everybody needs to do it. Everybody needs to understand it. Because I think they, once they work through it, and I can see the resistance why people would find it hard, because I know in my work, people are so in their head.

[: 00:12:22

[00:12:31] But I can understand why it'd be so hard for some people who I call heady, when they're so overthinking, they're in that head space, but I like to work on The ancient medicine wheel where we are, there's four different directions, when we're so in our head, we have to drop into our heart when we're so into spirit, we have to drop into our body, opposite and complimentary, we could go completely this round the medicine wheel.

[: 00:12:56

[00:13:01] Cherie Lindberg: Absolutely. I mean, I think folks have their own readiness for healing We all say we want to heal, but it's like, do you really? What does that mean? Leaving a relationship or leaving a job or leaving a friendship?

[: 00:13:13

[00:13:31] Lisa Williams: Yeah, it really was. And all of a sudden, you went, Are you good?

[: 00:13:34

[00:13:38] Cherie Lindberg: Thank you. So share with me in your career or in your life, because it sounds like your, your mission is to be, to be a psychic, to help people, comfort folks, help with healing, to facilitate healing.

[: 00:13:51

[00:13:56] Lisa Williams: I think there's always been a challenge. this work has always become easy for me. the challenge for me has been very much, in the recent years, where I have been cornered so much into mediumship.

[: 00:14:08

[00:14:29] And so I've been doing this work for a very long time. my hardest challenge has been to be accepted outside of the world of psychic mediums. I'm recognized for It just to be pure energy work. And what's interesting is I feel that the psychic, the medium, the healing, the helping people transition into spirit all come as one because it is a healing modality in all sorts.

[: 00:14:56

[00:15:14] But it's so funny I think we're always the problem. I am always the problem. if I can't connect, I'm the problem. what's happening with my energy? If I can't connect to source, I am the problem. If spirit is not connected, it's always me. so, I have to look at it and say, before I do anything, am I in the right position to do it?

[: 00:15:37

[00:15:53] Cherie Lindberg: I'm hearing almost like, not just connected to self and spirit, but like in a flow space.

[: 00:15:59

[00:16:17] And so in this work. It's now become very acceptable, the work that we're doing has started to replace certain techniques and therapy modalities, with the amount of work that I have done, I have Got the experience to step into the work.

[: 00:16:35

[00:16:50] And I think it's very valuable that we start to treat ourselves as seriously that we do have a place in the world.

[: 00:16:57

[00:17:00] Lisa Williams: So one of the things I've always been passionate about is healing. I had a journey, my own little dance with cancer many years ago. And I read the book, You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay, which was very transformative. then the more I started to step into healing, the more I started to see people healing their life.

[: 00:17:19

[00:17:39] And so now I have done a deep dive into ancient healing techniques. And I actually understood this from doing, a plant medicine journey. I'm not ashamed to say I very much open into it, but I did a plant medicine journey I was shown that I needed to heal, but it was more than being a psychic medium.

[: 00:18:01

[00:18:18] We're always going to have death and taxes. Two things we can't escape, okay? And then when we also have this other part of it. is I'm going to help you heal from either ancestral trauma, lineage, childhood trauma, whatever it might be, emotions, anything that is holding into your body. And then if I can't, I want to help you pass over.

[: 00:18:40

[00:19:19] And I was talking about this doctor and someone overheard me he said that that guy saved my life. So we're bringing forward these, powerful people who are going to actually share, not just let's put our hands on people, but these deep techniques to come into full body alignment so that we can get the best out of our health while we're living the life that we want to live.

[: 00:19:43

[00:19:49] Lisa Williams: Fabulous. Thank you.

[: 00:19:50

[00:20:14] Lisa Williams: Yeah, I, I think it's amazing.

[: 00:20:16

[00:20:38] And when we sit with the plants, it's amazing what wisdom they give you, and I truly probably could have still be sitting here as a psychic medium in the same old little routine if I hadn't have done the opportunity to have this awareness and this experience to know, hey, it's okay to change my life and I'm going to be okay.

[: 00:21:00

[00:21:03] Cherie Lindberg: Well, it sounds like you're evolving.

[: 00:21:05

[00:21:07] The seasons change. You don't think the trees. evolve as well. They're always growing stronger and moving. it's a powerful thing, especially if we look at nature, all we do is mimic nature.

[: 00:21:18

[00:21:25] So just thank you so much for being here, Lisa.
