If You're Drained After Readings, You're Doing It Wrong
Hi everyone,
I need to tell you something that might upset some people in our field, but it's the truth that could save your career.
If you feel drained after doing readings, you are doing it wrong.
I know that sounds harsh. I know you've probably been told that exhaustion is "part of the job" as a sensitive. But after 20+ years as a professional medium, I have never experienced burnout. Not once.
The Industry Has Taught You Wrong
Most mediums are taught to give from their own energy - what I call magnetic healing. You pour out your mental energy, your emotional energy, your physical energy into every session. Of course you're exhausted. You're literally giving away pieces of yourself.
But real spiritual work should energize you, not drain you.
The Difference Between Amateur and Professional
When you learn to channel spirit energy instead of using your own, everything changes. The energy flows THROUGH you, not FROM you. I often finish a day of readings feeling higher than when I started - like I've been given a gift, not robbed of one.
This is what separates hobbyists from professionals.
You Are the Boss
Here's what they don't teach you: You are in charge. You decide how much energy to spend. You decide when to open that connection and when to shut it down.
I'm quite "cold" when I'm not working - and I don't mean heartless. I mean I'm not a sponge picking up everyone's energy. I separate my work from my human life very clearly. When I'm done, I'm done. The spirit world respects that boundary because I enforce it.
This Changes Everything
I just recorded a video sharing exactly how I've maintained this energy for over two decades. It includes the mindset shifts, the boundary techniques, and the fundamental difference between draining yourself and channeling properly.

Your energy is precious. Protect it like the professional asset it is. The spirit world will thank you for being a clear, strong channel rather than an exhausted one.
P.S. Your presence in this community means the world to me. Thank you for being part of this journey. 💜
