8
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Thank you so much, Jill. It's an absolute pleasure to be here.
9
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Alright, so what's the most significant thing, in your opinion, as individuals we can do to make an impact on how the world is going?
10
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: It's probably the most significant thing that I feel that we do, and it's certainly something I live by, is the power of prayer.
11
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And I mean pure prayer, intentional prayer. I'm not going to tell you how to pray, I think that's an individual thing, but I do truly believe
12
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: when we take a moment to intentionally send prayer out to understand that we are a spiritual being, that we are part of the One Spirit, the Great Spirit, whatever you want to call it.
13
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: that… that little intention that may seem insignificant for us has a ripple effect that often is unbeknown. So, I do say to everyone, take a moment, pause, and set an intention through prayer.
14
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I love that. And I know firsthand how powerful setting intentions are. I've got stories upon stories of how intentions have
15
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: directed intentions can have healing effects that are just, like, those have been documented in a lot of cases, the power of prayer. So, we're gonna talk about mediumship and
16
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: understanding the gifts that… I believe we all have gifts, and we are all capable of being mediums and connecting with the spirit world, because we are actually spirit beings.
17
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: having a human experience. So how do you… how do you help people, and how do you…
18
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Help them, like, tune in to what these gifts are.
19
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: I love that question as well, Jill, but I want to just preempt it before the answer is.
20
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: I believe the gift is in the healing that goes about once that mediumship connection is established and made. The… I believe, like you, that everyone has ability, we do. I do believe it's in part of our human DNA, it is part of us
21
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: As spiritual beings at mediumship, which is truly a connection of, through spirit.
22
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: it's a spiritual connection, so I always say it comes from spirit.
23
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: through spirit, which is the medium, which is the channel, to spirit, which is the person that you're providing the information to. And we can use it in many different ways. So, one of the ways that I help people is first identify their ability. There's three pillars to mediumship, so everyone's familiar with the messages.
24
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: that they might have seen a medium on stage, or they might have come to see a medium in a private sitting. But mediumship goes beyond that. It's also healing, literally hands-on healing using the spirit healers.
25
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And inviting that work to be done through either a healing medium, or to actually sit in intentional prayer with yourself, and have your own team around you. And the third aspect of mediumship is what I call the philosophy, or words of wisdom, the inspired words
26
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: That people, are…
27
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: placed around in our communities, whether they're formal or informal, that leave an impression on the whole body, like the whole, not just an individual message, something that all of us can relate to. So one of the first things that I do is conduct what's called a spiritual assessment.
28
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: where I have the, ability to be able to ascertain where you are naturally developed, because we all have natural ability, and where there is ability that hasn't been nurtured and bought out.
29
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And secondly, because of my engineering background, I have this very, beautiful, systemized way
30
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: in other words, putting a framework around spirit, which can be nebulous at times, can't it? It can be free-flowing, and be able to give that six-step process in a way that makes sense.
31
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And then I move out of the way and allow you to become your natural medium, because I'm all about nurturing the natural talent.
32
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And not turning carbon copies of a particular formula out.
33
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: I'm… go for me.
34
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I find it so fascinating. Go ahead.
35
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Yeah, and Jill, so ways that I've set that up, just to let you know, and also the listening audience, is, I have created my online mediumship school, which is called Ignition.
36
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And within it, I have three levels that, so those that are curious or want to really understand that six-step process and understand whether it applies to them or not, it's level one called the Emerging Medium, and it's about understanding your abilities, understanding the process.
37
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: putting a language and a context around what is happening to you. A lot of people do that first level and go, oh, now I know why I was getting that, or what was happening there.
38
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And for those that are already on the path, that already have basic understanding, Level 2 is the evidential medium, because for us, it's also about providing information that makes sense.
39
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And it's not airy-fairy, it needs to land, it needs to be, real specific information, whether that's coming in through the healing, or whether it's developing that philosophical voice, or actually passing on the messages of our past loved ones.
40
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And then the third missing component, which a lot of spiritual teachers around the world don't teach, is
41
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: now that I've developed this ability, and I want to bring it out to the world, how do I do that? I have a very strong business background. I was in corporate in my engineering. My last role was a general manager over the Australian sales division of an automotive company, so quite senior.
42
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: corporate, so I was able to provide those practical skills.
43
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And give people a guideline and a framework on how to put it into practice so that they are showing up in the world.
44
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And able to just do their… what they do without having to worry about, well, what are all the steps? How do I get my vision out there? How do I define my products? What is my brand voice? All those sorts of things, you know, even right down to what do I charge for my services, and how do I deliver them?
45
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I love that. It sounds… I'd have to say it this way. It sounds kind of… odd.
46
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: That we would have…
47
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: To have, like, training for mediums, but we really do need training for mediums, because otherwise you end up with, you know, people
48
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: make fun of people who… who are mediums. I mean, mediumship is a thing, and…
49
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: The thing is…
50
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: We all get messages all the time, but most people are just, like, too afraid to… to stand up and say, well, you know.
51
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: it happened. I… I experienced this. I know what's going on. And instead of, like, the… the…
52
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: The way it's made fun of, and it really is made fun of in most, secular…
53
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: experiences. And it… when you… even if you look at, like, the Bible, I don't… I can't speak for other,
54
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: religious texts, but I know for a fact the Bible talks about mediumship all over the place, and while witchcraft, which was inserted in later by King James.
55
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: it never was a thing back before. So… so we've got all of this, like.
56
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: mismatch of stuff that makes people afraid of something that naturally occurs within us, because it's our connection to… to the greater creation. We're just a small aspect of a bigger…
57
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I hesitate to say entity, but
58
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: for lack of a better word, I'll use that.
59
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And we're all connected to each other.
60
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Yeah, I do use the word… I do use the word God, but my understanding of God, I feel everyone's understanding of God is deeply personal.
61
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And God, for me, is the oneness, the one, you know, the great architect, whatever you want to call it. I don't personify God. God is an energy for me. However.
62
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: It took me a long time to come to terms with that word, but I do feel the power of the word and the energy behind it. You could call it Great Spirit, whatever you want to call it, but it is a oneness, and not to deviate from what I want to talk about today, but I did have a minor
63
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: A near-death experience about 14, 15 years ago, and being in the presence
64
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Of that energy, just absolutely changed my whole outlook on
65
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: the whole continuum of life. The science hat, if I wear the science hat, energy we know is neither created or destroyed, it's transformed, and we know that consciousness moves on beyond the physical.
66
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: What happens is, fear-based thinking will create fear-based experiences. So, words like entity are loaded, words like ghosts are loaded, and witchcraft and spellcraft and all those sorts of words are very loaded, and they're not words that I would normally use, because I feel…
67
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Intentionally speaking in a way that where you are elevated is the way to go, and a lot of those words have energy that isn't as elevated as it needs to be.
68
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And… but people… it's also misinformation, and this is why I'm deeply passionate about raising the standards in teaching, and to demystify it too, to give people an opportunity to question it. See, I love skeptics. I don't like it when people are completely shut down from.
69
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: they've decided that they're not going to listen, their point of view is the right view for them, and they have every right to do that. You know, I'm not here to change people's minds.
70
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: But I don't mind people questioning, and I think it's right to question. We need to evaluate it, we need to understand it, and we need to question it for ourselves. So I encourage that.
71
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And I also feel very strongly that, you know, I know mediumship is real, and I know for me, until I fully owned it and embraced it within myself.
72
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: I found that everyone around me was highlighting my fear of it, you know, am I going to be…
73
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: you know, considered someone who's lost their marbles, you know, is a little bit loony. You know, those sorts of things. But the more you dig into it, the more you find that it's not too far removed
74
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: from science. So I do believe that spirituality is the opposite side of the same coin to science.
75
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And it just means science has to catch up with setting up the right experiments for it.
76
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And evaluating it. So, for us as a medium, you know, it is important that we give information that can be validated, and that is not generalized.
77
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And I've seen people who think they're mediums and they're not. They're actually very good psychics, because for me, mediumship is you need to be able to feel the presence of spirit, and the person needs to,
78
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: understand beyond any doubt that that life lives on, and it's the love that draws these people close to us. We love our families, we love our friends.
79
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And everything in between where we don't.
80
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: We, you know, we won't have those people come across into our experience. It just won't happen that way. You know, people are frightened and say, well, this relative was horrible and abusive. I don't want to connect with them, for example. And I do believe that the spirit world is a loving world. It's not about…
81
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: causing more harm. So you won't come across that
82
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: that family member if they caused you harm. But I also believe the soul evolves, grows, heals, even on the other side, and therefore, I've been witness to, over the 20…
83
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: four years, of mediumship that I've been doing, I've seen the sorries, and I've seen the changes, and sometimes it's just a simple word. I'm sorry. Just that simple word. Other times, there's more to it, and it's a huge release.
84
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And so, it's really changed my perspective on human nature. It's also changed my perspective on how I show up, and how I run my day-to-day. So, one of the things that I say in my intentional prayer in the morning is.
85
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: take me to the greatest need, and how may I best serve today? And I say that not just for the students and the clients that I'm working with, but for everyone that I come across.
86
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: In my day-to-day. And it becomes…
87
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: something that I witness the miracle of healing in so many different ways, where I let go, I don't overthink it, and I just allow
88
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: myself to be of service to spirit in the way that is needed in that moment.
89
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: So beautiful. Can I ask you a couple questions in there? One is, you… you mentioned psychics and mediums were different. You want to…
90
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: step into that a little more, because I think a lot of people do conflate the two.
91
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: They do, absolutely. So the simple, definition that I use is, a psychic, will connect with an embodied spirit, so in other words, a human, a person, who… and they… their job is to
92
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: I believe is to give you two or three pieces of information that happened in your past to establish trust and credibility, to give you what's going around you currently, in terms of the energies.
93
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And then, and this is the critical bit, give you the outcome that is the highest probable path
94
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: based on
95
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: what that person has already subconsciously decided. That is where psychic really happens, and people get confused because they put all the power with the psychic, and, you know, it's almost like they think the psychic is going to tell them what life is, and therefore it's going to be there, and it's not. A really good psychic reads the auric field, the electromagnetic field of the person.
96
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: and clarifies for them what is that highest path. And often, in my psychic readings, when people are making huge decisions.
97
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: An example might be, do I leave my spouse or don't I? I don't believe it's the psychic's job to say, yes, you need to leave that spouse, or no, you don't. So, in my reading, I always say, let's look and see what your path would be like if you left.
98
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And let's look and see what your path would be like if you stayed, right? And because I'm a healing medium as well, I would then add an extra layer to that reading and say, what is it that you both need to do now that's going to assist in this situation? And I believe the highest outcome
99
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: is always going to land, whether that means living… leaving, so some people will be, yes, the highest outcome is to leave, and others it isn't. Whereas mediumship, the job of a medium is to give voice to a spirit person, and they are a person, not a ghost.
100
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: that does not have a physical body. And that, for me, means that it is not predictive, we don't predict the future. You know, I have people that do get confused, and they say, oh, what does Dad say? Should I sell my house? And I pause, I always smile, and I pause, and I say, if you…
101
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: if your dad was a super guru real estate agent, and he had all that knowledge, I said I'd be very happy to ask your dad what he thinks. But just know…
102
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: You know, it's his opinion, and…
103
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Based on whatever his life experiences are. It's still an opinion. So it's not the highest guidance around it. And then people kind of go, oh, because they think that if you go to the spirit world, suddenly you become… their loved ones become amazing guides with incredible insight. And I just say to them, if you were going to ask Dad living what to do with your house, and you would accept his opinion.
104
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: then I'm more than happy to ask that question. So see how that works as well. And it's just those little differences
105
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: that do create confusion, for people. And then, of course, there's all the terms, because then, you know, people market themselves as, I'm a clairvoyant medium, and people think, oh, what does that mean? And really, that's just one of their abilities. Clairvoyance, clear seeing, but at the end of the day, they are a medium, and a medium is literally a channel for spirit.
106
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Yeah, I… I love the clarity that you're… you're giving on these different…
107
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Terms that we tend to just, like.
108
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Throw them the one putt, and…
109
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: then we… then we're surprised when we don't… you know, the crystal ball doesn't tell us what our future's gonna be without us having to do anything. It's just suddenly going to be, like, this magic thing, and…
110
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: This realm doesn't work that way.
111
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: It does not. And I'm pretty sure the other realm doesn't work that way either.
112
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And it doesn't. And, you know, we're co-creators, aren't we? And that's why I call… I don't call them guides, I call them my spirit team, because I'm a team member as well. And in this
113
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: incarnation I have. They happen to be on the other side assisting. In another time, I might be on the other side assisting on someone else's team, so we don't give our power away.
114
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: But we do consult.
115
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I love that, and I… from my understanding.
116
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: We come here with a plan.
117
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: We often forget that plan, or we have decided that the plan is going to go in such a way.
118
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And we're going to be traumatized, okay? That just is, like, that's the setup for how we're going to get to where we want to go. And we are co-creators in that setup.
119
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: So, the… the complaining about going through trauma and being stuck in trauma, not to minimize people's trauma, because I recognize that, you know, sometimes you decide this horrible, horrible experience that you had in your life.
120
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: What's going to happen to you before you came here?
121
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And the person that put Put that on you.
122
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Also agreed to do that in a space where you are total love.
123
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: out of love, they agreed to be this adversary for you, because you can't have an experience without friction in there. It just… there's no… there's no existence in the lack of
124
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: in the nothingness. It happens when…
125
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: dynamics are… are thrown into the mix. And so.
126
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Yeah. When… when you're… when you're talking to the people on the other side, they're…
127
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And people that have been in this existence with you, but have moved on to the other side.
128
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: It's, like… Yeah, they can say they're sorry, but… really…
129
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: They did what they said they were gonna do.
130
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Yep.
131
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: They… but it's okay to hear the sorry. The human part of us needs it. You know, I always say to people, and it's challenging, and it's not spiritual bypassing, because I think we have to own that trauma is trauma, it does affect us. We live in a dual world, no matter, you know, we can add terms like 3D and 5D and everything else, but at the end of the day, once we are in a biology.
132
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And we are on this dimension. We are in a duality. There's no two ways about it. We're probably in a multiple duality, not just a duality, but at the very least, in terms of our awareness.
133
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And I often say, and it takes a lot of, insight and a lot of courage to say, why is this happening for me? And if you allow the human part of us just to step back and the soul mind to rise up.
134
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: You will get your answer with that. And, you know, we've all gone through trauma. I've gone through trauma, everyone does.
135
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And I got that lesson very early, in my spiritual development, and when my marriage broke down, for example, I got, just in meditation, it came out of the blue, I heard, he really
136
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Really loves you as a soul.
137
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: for this to have played out the way that it did, alright? And that was confronting for me at the time, because… but I anchored that truth, because I know when we get truth, everyone has a reaction somewhere. It could be like.
138
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Goosebumps. It could be a cold energy going down your spine, or a knowing and expansion of your energy. And, it made me realize, for them to play that role, which gives you maximum soul growth.
139
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: They… they've got… there's got to be a love there. And that's hard for people to take, because when we look at it on…
140
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: this level, which is, you know, I was wronged, I was hurt, I was… you know, we've seen people suffer horrendous murders and all sorts of things. We kind of go, what gives, right? But, if we pull back into the soul.
141
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And where the soul has the… I call it the blueprint of what your life was going to do. We're ticking the boxes, whether we like it or not. And we know growth always comes with an element of pain.
142
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: You know, we look at the birthing process, where as women, we go through pain to bring new life into the world, and then there's joy, isn't there? You know, there's this happiness, we've got this new baby, but we don't stop and think what's happening to the other side. They're losing that soul, so there's…
143
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: upset, and of course, they're happy for the soul to go in and have that experience in the human body, but they are now not with that soul in the way that they knew it, right? And then the opposite happens. We're grieving when we lose our loved ones, no matter what age they are, but there's a rebirth and a reunion back on the other side.
144
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And so that duality is always going to exist, and I do believe it contributes to continuous expansion of the one soul.
145
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And when you are able to…
146
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: navigate that and find out what your purpose is. And not everyone's lucky to find that out, but when you can, it puts it into context. And there's times, as I'm sure you and other listeners would know, there's times when we think, wow, this really sucks, and
147
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Why is that happening? And we're allowed to have that, too. We're allowed to feel sorry for ourselves. We're allowed to grieve. We're allowed to, you know, think about life being unfair and unjust at times.
148
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: But I do believe once we get through it, we sort of go, wow, look how far I've come. And that bit, sadly, is lacking, because very few of us stop.
149
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: and just reflect, and say, wow, look where I've come. Look where I've come. And that's why I'm a big believer in, journaling, whether that's, you know, voice-to-text, whether you're recording your voice, or whether you're just inspired writing through your soul.
150
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: I'm… I always… when I teach that aspect of it, I don't… I say don't make it religious. In other words, don't set a timer every day, you know, such and such a time, and I'm going to write for 20 minutes.
151
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: I just feel you should write when your soul feels inspired, but just to give yourself the access to that. So have a journal floating around in your bedroom, one in your office, you know, in your kitchen. Have many and multiple, and if you feel inspired.
152
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Capture it, because when you do go back to read them, gosh, you can see the difference in where you've been.
153
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And how far you've come.
154
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And it makes your life so much richer.
155
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: to… to get confirmation that things are changing. They're not the same.
156
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And the stories that you've told yourself in the past, have changed?
157
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: and… Yeah, I think it's a great idea, journaling.
158
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Yeah. Truly is, it truly is. And, you know, I feel it gives the soul a chance, because we are on a continuum as a soul, so it gives us a chance
159
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Just to, understand and look for the patterns, you know, the themes that are rich in our life, and… and you are right, we do tell stories. We're all guilty of it, you know, we… and we have to listen to what we're telling ourselves.
160
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: I know from a science perspective, every word we speak, the resonance of that carries on for eternity.
161
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: So there's a lot of words floating out there, and we're in word soup, essentially. We may not physically hear it with our ears anymore. So what are we telling ourselves, and what can we take charge of in our own environment?
162
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And,
163
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And I do believe that's the difference between people that are very resilient, and we see that in some of the elderly, and even some young people too, because children, you know, they fall over, or they… their friend doesn't play with them today, half an hour later, they've brushed it off and they've moved on. It's just over time, we start to tell ourselves.
164
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: oh, I'm not the best friend, or no one likes me, or whatever the story is, and often we inherit
165
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: stories, and there are a lot of people in our sort of community that are the circuit breakers that have stopped, you know, stopped that story, and that's… that's pretty tough too. But guess what? You wouldn't be up for it if your soul wasn't ready for it, so know that as well.
166
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Yeah. There's so much of that happening now, where people are starting to recognize that
167
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: We don't have to keep telling ourselves these old stories, and people… Have given us stories
168
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: that we keep telling. It's like…
169
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: There's… there's freedom in just, like, You can just…
170
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: you can just accept the moment for what the moment is, and you don't have to give meaning to everything that happens to you, or has happened to you, or might happen to you. It could just have happened, and we can just, like.
171
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Embrace it for what it was.
172
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Hmm, let it go.
173
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And it had purpose and function at that time, and often it's survival. You know, these stories are passed on through survival experiences, but we don't live in the same set of conditions, generally. Some do, there's generational poverty, for example, but
174
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Generally, we don't, and in our part of the world, we're lucky for that. And, you know, so sometimes we just have to take stock and say, is that still valid for me? Does it still hold? Is it even mine?
175
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And if it's not mine, what conscious choice can I make right now, in this now moment, that will change that for me?
176
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: and bring Maine in more,
177
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Purposeful alignment with what my soul's here to do.
178
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And I feel that's where the real empowerment happens. And it's not about having the perfect world, we know that, right? Although, if we take a step back, we are in the perfect world, perfectly disorganized chaos is giving us exactly what we need.
179
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: But what we need to do is say that we do, you know, we forget we're co-creators, and we need to have an element of that part of us that says.
180
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: how have I contributed to this? What can I do, afterwards? And there may be nothing that you can do, and that's okay, but there's an acknowledgement in that as well. And then we can grieve it fully and openly, and let it wash through us, instead of holding onto it, and adding it to our story.
181
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Yeah. And how does all of this tie into the Developing a mediumship
182
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Practice, and… and what kind of people would… Would hear this and say, Yeah!
183
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I gotta go… check out Yoano, what she's doing, because I… I want to create
184
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: a business around sharing my gifts with others.
185
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Yeah, and the beauty about mediumship, I believe, is, anyone that understands that they are a spiritual being inside a human template
186
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: can benefit from mediumship. So, you know, like I said earlier, it's not… not everyone has to give readings and be a medium that sits on stage or has private sittings.
187
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Mediumship comes into every aspect of life.
188
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: So when I sit down and do other type of life, I know in my spirit team that I have, if it exists here on Earth, it exists there, and vice versa. So I can channel or, call people in.
189
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: to assist. So, if I'm doing marketing, I do often, through intentional prayer, say, I really would love a marketing expert from the other side to blend with me, to inspire me, so that I can do this
190
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: next little bit of my physical work. Anyone that relies on creativity and intuition, and it can be from forensics, you know, from military, from police.
191
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: From the judicial system, scientists, it can be parents, even. Just, you know, understanding your children and being connected more deeply to your children. Anyone of any sector of the community, mediumship can apply to.
192
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Other than, of course, the obvious ones, which is to be the healer.
193
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: be the inspired speaker, so taking the stage and speaking, whether it's in your local community or broader, or even globally. And, I do believe the inspired speaking, which is something that I also teach, is a fabulous way. It's liberated how I show up.
194
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: To conduct a speech. Now, I used to have all my little notes and, you know, everything written out, and I'd rehearse it and rehearse it. Now, if someone said to me, could you speak for the next 5 hours on, you know, an inspired topic, I'm not gonna lie, the first few minutes of getting up on stage, I will be slightly
195
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: probably more than slightly nervous, but once I've attuned and expanded and connected to my team, I let go and just allow those words to flow. And there's a real empowerment in that as well, because when I speak that way, whenever I've done speaking opportunities, I always…
196
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: trust that whatever comes out of my mouth is going to touch the audience members specifically, because there is an intelligence on the other side. They know what words to use, what phrases to use, which stories to share.
197
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Out of my whole life experience. And more often than not, people will come up afterwards and say, I felt like you were speaking directly to me when you said this little thing, or when you shared that story, that was my, you know, story as well. And I love that too, because that's the power of spirit. That's
198
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Where, if we can be an instrument for spirit in that way, we know that we're going to do it for the highest benefit.
199
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Yeah, I…
200
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I think a lot of times we do end up channeling, we just aren't aware that we are channeling.
201
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Death? It… When you slow down and you realize that
202
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I don't know where that came from.
203
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Came out of my mouth!
204
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Or you've used words and phrases and think, I don't even know what that means, and it's come out of your mouth, and then you know, truly, that you're channeling. I've often used words and phrases that I've gone, I need to look that up later to see what that actual phrase means.
205
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And it's… that's when you know, and it's always so appropriate. And if you can get out of your fear-based thinking, because it's the leap of faith, that's why we call it the leap of faith, it's the trust.
206
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And I trust my team 100%, and a good teacher of mediumship will hold space until their students can trust.
207
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: You know, so I have little techniques as well, where one of them is where people always say, oh, I always think, what if it's mean, it's just my head, and I'm making it up. And I always say, assume you don't, and let spirit prove yourself wrong.
208
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: So the way that you approach it changes, and it liberates them immediately. You know, the worst thing for a demonstrating medium, and I demonstrate as well, is when you've got a live audience, you give a piece of information, and your recipient says, no, they can't understand it, or they don't take it.
209
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Right. It's the worst thing for developing mediums. It freezes them, it stops their flow, their power, their energy.
210
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And I always say, well, no for me stands for New Opportunity to Get Clarity around the evidence given. So, I actually don't mind if I get a no, I just pause, because there's a real power and beauty when you can go back to spirit and say, they're not… it's not landing this way, give it to me in another way.
211
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And once you add one extra piece of information to it, suddenly the person goes, oh, yes, yes!
212
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And, you know, there's a huge,
213
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: yeah, it's a moment that can captivate an entire audience when that happens. So, for me, it doesn't matter now if I get it or no, I'm happy to get a no. I just pause and go, okay, my language or the way I've delivered it, you know, and it's subjective. Like, I might say.
214
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Oh, gee, your uncle was very quiet, because that's the word I use in my day-to-day.
215
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And you might go, no, he wasn't quiet, he chatted quite a bit at home. Now, I might have…
216
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: A more accurate word might have been, your uncle was reserved, right? So, that person would say, no, my uncle wasn't quiet, because I've used the wrong term. But if I go back and say, okay, would you understand, if you don't understand quiet, would you understand he's more reserved in his
217
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: you know, nature, and they might go, oh yes, yes, I would say that. So see how… it doesn't mean you've got it wrong, it just means you might not have used the correct term in the way that the recipient needed to hear it.
218
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Yeah, that's interesting. Do you think that this works not just person to person, but also, like, to organisms and to spirits that are out there? Like, I've had experiences with trees, where I've healed trees. I've asked them to heal themselves, I've asked them to, you know.
219
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: work really hard and live, because I've transplanted them, and… and they do. And I… I one time was out in my backyard, and there were just a few little tiny clouds. I'm like, okay, I want it to rain, and I promise you, it rained right
220
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: over me.
221
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: It was not raining.
222
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And it only was, like, for less than a minute, but it was enough to say, yep.
223
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Sweet. There you go.
224
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: I 100%. You know, we're all part of the oneness, the divine intelligence. I love that you shared the tree story. Trees, we know, science has also proved they have a great communication system.
225
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: I love talking to the trees myself, I must admit. I… if I go through nature, I will look for grandfather tree, grandma tree, and, you know, you find them, you know, they will tell you. They'll tell you…
226
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Yeah, they'll tell you what they need, and I did an experiment with my students in Circle many years ago, and we… I always ask for permission, or most of the time, sometimes I don't, but generally I do. I can't say always, and
227
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: I wanted to demonstrate that they have intelligence, so I had a flower, like a little daisy, like with the yellow and the white petals, and
228
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: I said to my circle, I want you to call it over to you, and this flower literally went round to every single person through energy, and I got it to wave. I literally got the pedals to do that. I got it to wave, and that showed me the intelligence that's there.
229
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: you know, animals, which are a huge love of mine, and you can hear my darling little pup in the background there, he, you know, they communicate. And I'll tell you a true story about this pup, if I may, and one of the… so I lost my soul dog buddy.
230
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Last year, my beautiful Cavedo, old, 12… he died…
231
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: at 4.44 in the morning. And since then, I've seen 444s everywhere, literally 444s, And…
232
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: I said I would never get another dog, because I was just so upset and devastated about, my… my… the passing of my dog.
233
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And all of a sudden, one day, Buddy rocked up with, in my dreams, holding a little pup in his mouth. He put it on my fence.
234
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: and pushed it towards me in the dream, and then I saw…
235
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: this little pup in utero with three others around it, but he was really forward. And I also saw, the name Charmaine. So, when I went and looked for this pup, because I took that as a huge sign, I…
236
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: contacted some breeders, and they said, our girls, so they had two, two females.
237
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: are pregnant, we'll put you on the list, and when you're ready, we're gonna go. And when I got the call when they'd actually birthed their pups, she said, Hazel has had
238
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: 2 boys and five girls, and I went, well, that's… that's not where pup's coming from. And then I heard her say, and Charmaine has had one boy and 3 girls.
239
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And I thought, there's my sign. Now, how does an animal from the other side give you all that information, right? The skeptics would say, wow. And this little being has just been… he's only young, he's just 5 months now, but he's just been…
240
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: such a great little healer to… it's, you know, my heart, but also to everyone around me. And it's been… yeah, it's been a journey, and I look forward to seeing how he unfolds over the years. But there's, you know, there's that communication.
241
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: And one final point, and I'm sure you'd understand that too, even things like crystals…
242
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: have sentience, right? They're not as highly evolved as a human template, but they do, and this is why all these frequencies and information that they hold.
243
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: Has it? And then, of course, we can go beyond, and I'm sure, you know, there's other life forms out there. So, yes, the short answer is, is we can communicate with anything that has sentience.
244
::Ioanna Serpanos CSNU | Medium & Mentor: 100%, and we can send healing out to each and every one of those areas where sentience exists.
245
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I love that. I love that.
246
::Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: You respect how much power we have as individuals, and how it really can impact the whole rest of the world by using it, and that you're training people to use it.
