11. The Psychic Psychologist: When Neuroscience Meets Mediumship with Dr Courtney

She was walking on the beach, crying, asking her life to make sense. A Doctor of Clinical Neuropsychology with her own clinic, who was also hearing spirit and knowing what clients would say before they said it. Then a voice answered her: it's not meant to make sense.

Dr Courtney is a Magnificent Mediumship graduate, one of Victoria's 1:1 clients, and the woman who wrote the foreword to Victoria's book, Everyone Is a Medium. She calls herself a neuropsychologist gone rogue. Victoria calls her the psychic psychologist.

In this episode:

The beach moment that ended her need to fit in one box
How 2022 cracked her open, and why she needed a higher vantage point to hold it
Why psychology and mediumship are two sides of the same coin
What she brought home from Magnificent Mediumship, including the line her boys now say every day
Why a psychic reading is only ever a snapshot of one moment, and what happens when you treat it as fixed
How she decides how far to take a client, and why it always starts with the body
Victoria on her early days clearing everyone in sight, and why just because you can doesn't mean you should
Why the parts of you that were suppressed as a child are so often the gift
Why Dr Courtney says Everyone Is a Medium transcends mediumship
