Connecting to Spirit with Lisa Brandis | Intuition, Channelling & Spiritual Development

A spiritual business rarely begins with more clients.

It doesn’t start with another qualification, a better website, or finally feeling confident enough.

More often, it begins with a decision.

The moment you stop treating your work like something you do quietly on the side… and start taking yourself seriously as a practitioner.

In this episode, I’m sharing one of the biggest crossroads in my own journey — a tim...

There's a reason so many gifted, sensitive, heart-centred women stay invisible in their work — and it's not the one most people assume.

It's not fear of judgment. It's not worrying about what family will think. The real reason goes deeper than that, and once you understand it, everything changes.

In this episode I'm sharing what I've witnessed after teaching thousands of intuitive practitioners over 23 years — the hidden ...

There’s a question I’ve been sitting with recently… and it might change the way you think about channeling completely.

In this episode, I explore one of the most important (and often misunderstood) aspects of intuitive work:

👉 Are we accessing higher guidance… or subtly giving our power away?

We dive into:

•  The difference between channeling and inner wisdom 
•  Why discernment matters more tha...

Have you ever received something, a feeling, a message, a sense, and immediately thought, I’m just making this up?  Because what if that’s not what’s happening at all?

What if you’re already channeling… and the only thing getting in the way is that you don’t trust it yet?

In this episode, I’m speaking to the experience of receiving something subtle and dismissing it before it’s ev...

Channeling is not what you think it is. You are not being taken over.  You are not losing control and you’re definitely not opening yourself up to something dark.

In this episode, I’m breaking down what channeling actually is — not the version you’ve seen in movies, and not the fear-based stories people often believe, but the real, grounded human experience of it.

I’m sharing my own journey into tra...

You’re not lacking intuition — you’re just not recognising it.
The more you notice it, the stronger it becomes.

Once you begin recognising your intuition, the next step is learning how to strengthen it.

In this episode, I share simple, practical ways to deepen your connection to intuition and start trusting it in your everyday life.

Rather than something mysterious or out of reach, intuition is already present &md...

What if you've never lacked intuition — you've just been misreading it?

In this episode, I'm sharing the framework I've refined over more than 20 years of doing this work: the Three Voices. True inspired guidance, fear, and your own thinking mind. Each one shows up when you tune in. Knowing which is which is where real trust begins.

Through my own stories — including a moment of embarrassment on tour with my business coac...

Have you ever had a moment where something inside you just knew — not because you had the evidence, not because it made logical sense, but because something deeper within you simply said yes… or no?

In this episode of Connecting to Spirit, I explore how intuition often appears quietly in everyday moments. It might be a sudden impulse to answer a phone call, an instant sense of connection with someone new, or a small inn...

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 emot...

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...

In this deeply moving episode, I sit down with intuitive healer Karen Churchill, who bravely shares her journey from an unexpected cancer diagnosis to discovering her own healing power through Reiki and spiritual connection.

Karen opens her heart as she recounts the i...

What if the thing you fear most… never actually happens?

This week I go deep and share a very personal story — the moment my husband was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia and my whole world collapsed in an instant. I was pregnant, caring for a toddler, and suddenly facing the unthinkable. My mind went straight into worst-case scenarios. That moment led to a profound shift in perspective — one that ultimately e...
