Season 7 – Episode 006 – Spiritual Teacher, Medium - Shelia V - Author "Brave"
My path hasn’t always been about being a Medium. I remember seeing a spirit as a young child and I was inconsolable. These incredible gifts were an inconvenience for me and they were not valued by society, my family or my social groups. These gifts made my life hard, so I denied my spirituality
So I denied these gifts, I hid them from myself and the world. I hid these gifts by denying and discrediting any spiritual experiences that I had. This was the only way I knew to be safe in the world.
Then I spent my whole adult life striving to become successful. I got near perfect high school grades, a Scholarship to University. I became a Chartered Accountant, then I went on to hold an MBA with Distinction. After leaving university, I climbed the corporate ladder to become a Chief Financial Officer of a global publishing house.
When I first started studying my MBA, I just wasn’t coping. My anxiety was off the scale. I knew the only way to heal myself was to explore what spirituality offered. I have been meditating for well over a decade and I have utilised so many different spiritual and mindful techniques in the corporate world. I would ground myself before a Board Meeting. I would remotely clear the energy in the room before important discussions and I learnt to cleanse my auric field after conflict. These practices were not only important but essential tools for a corporate executive who was developing as a psychic medium. Analytical and logical, I knew integration of my two separate lives was needed.
For 12 years I spiritualized my life. I cultivated my skills in Mediumship at the prestigious Arthur Findlay College in London. I studied mindfulness at Esalen with, Dr Shauna Shapiro and immersed myself in the Vedic teachings of Sri Kripalu Maharaj in Mangarh, India. I studied with world renowned Psychic Medium James Van Praagh at the Omega Institute. I started running intuitive workshops and did over a 1,000 client readings, whilst I was still working in the corporate world. During this time I broke through all of my limiting self beliefs and I found the courage to appear in regular Australian Television slots on Psychic TV and All About You, as a professional psychic medium.
On this long journey, I learnt many spiritual tools, but the greatest teaching I received was the innate wisdom that resided within myself. Today, I have left the corporate world behind and I am a Spiritual Teacher, committed to empowering women to honour the truth of who they truly are. I coach women to make the transition into an expanded, authentic and fully lived life. This is not easy and that is why support is so important.
Honouring my path and myself has been the hardest thing that I have done, but there really was no other path. It is the only path. It is your path too.
