Spirits Beside Us

You think you can deal with it later… but that’s how it gets worse—and by the time you realize it, it’s too late.

In this episode, we explore the hidden cost of avoidance—why delaying things that feel manageable in the moment can lead to bigger consequences in your health, relationships, and decision-making.
You’ll learn how the pattern of “I’ll deal with it later” shows up in everyday life, why ignoring early signals creates long-term problems, and how to recognize these moments before they turn into regret.

You’ll recognize this if:
• you’ve ever thought “I’ll handle it later”
• you’ve ignored something that felt off physically or emotionally
• you’ve delayed a conversation you knew you needed to have
• someone close to you has said “I’m worried”… and you brushed it off

What You’ll Learn:
• Why delaying action creates bigger consequences over time
• The hidden pattern behind “I’ve got it” and self-reliance
• What people consistently realize too late after they pass
• How subtle avoidance shows up in everyday moments
• The question that can interrupt this pattern in real time

You don’t say how you feel… not because you don’t care—but because you’re afraid of what might happen if you do.
If you’ve ever felt something deeply… but hesitated to say it…this might change how you see it. In this episode, I share a real story from a mediumship reading that reveals one of the most common patterns I’ve seen:

People don’t hold back because they don’t care. They hold back because it feels safer not to say it. But over time… that silence creates distance. Not all at once. Not dramatically. Just slowly—through the things left unsaid. This isn’t about becoming more emotional. It’s about understanding:
what actually stops you from expressing what you feel
why “they already know” is often wrong
and what it may cost if nothing changes
Because across thousands of readings, one thing comes through again and again. It’s not what people did that stays with them. It’s what they never expressed.

If someone came to mind while you were reading this…there may be something here for you.

What You’ll Learn
Why we assume people “already know” how we feel
The real fear behind emotional silence
How unspoken words create distance in relationships
Why expressing something small can change everything
The pattern that leads to regret—and how to interrupt it

What’s something you’ve been meaning to say… but haven’t?

Booked out but still underpaid? Many intuitive practitioners have full calendars yet unstable income. The problem isn’t more clients—it’s hidden business leaks.

If your intuitive business looks successful but financial stability still feels fragile, the issue usually isn’t demand. It’s structure.

Many intuitive practitioners—energy healers, mediums, coaches, Reiki practitioners, yoga teachers, and spiritual guides—build businesses that generate revenue but quietly drain profit through poor pricing strategy, emotional labor overload, and structural business leaks.

Chris Lippincott—CFA, MBA, former Wall Street financial analyst, and longtime intuitive practitioner—breaks down why so many spiritual businesses stay busy but financially unstable.
Instead of chasing more clients, you’ll learn how to rethink your entrepreneurial mindset, repair hidden business leaks, and build a business structure that actually supports your life.

You’ll learn:
• Why being booked out doesn’t guarantee financial stability
• The hidden business leaks draining income from intuitive practices
• How emotional labor quietly destroys profitability
• Why most intuitive practitioners struggle with pricing strategy
• The difference between revenue growth and true business stability
• The mindset shifts required to build a sustainable spiritual business
• How better business structure increases income without more clients

If you’re an intuitive practitioner trying to stabilize your income while doing meaningful work, this discussion will help you rethink how your business actually operates.

Booked out but not paid enough? If your intuitive business is busy but your income still feels tight, this is why.

If you’re a Reiki practitioner, medium, energy healer, spiritual coach, or intuitive entrepreneur generating real revenue but still feeling financially stretched, this episode will hit home.
Most intuitive business owners don’t have a marketing problem. They have a structural problem.

Being fully booked does not automatically mean:
• Strong profit margins
• Predictable income
• Stable take-home pay
• Financial freedom

In this conversation, we break down how to increase your take-home income 20–40% without adding more clients, more marketing, or more working hours.
This isn’t hustle advice. This is business model repair.

What You’ll Learn
• Why raising prices is about unit economics — not ego
• How to increase Customer Lifetime Value (LTV) using frequency, retention, and order value
• How memberships and structured offers stabilize revenue
• How digital products and leveraged income reduce time-for-money pressure
• Why recurring revenue and prepaid containers calm income volatility

If your calendar is full but your income feels unstable, this episode will show you exactly where the leak is — and how to fix it.

This show is evolving. If you’re serving Spirit but your business feels unstable, this next chapter was built for you.

For years, this podcast focused on spiritual discernment, intuition, and connecting with Spirit. That foundation remains — but it’s expanding.

In this episode, I explain why this show is evolving and what that evolution means for intuitive entrepreneurs.
If you’re a coach, healer, medium, Reiki practitioner, or spiritual service provider generating revenue yet still feeling financial pressure, profit leaks, or burnout from being the bottleneck — this conversation is for you. We’re moving from personal discernment to applied discernment in business.

You’ll hear:
• Why revenue can look strong and still feel unstable
• Why repeatedly changing your offer is often structural, not branding
• How emotional pricing quietly erodes margin
• Why intuitive businesses feel fragile under financial pressure
• What it means to design a model that supports your life instead of consuming it

My background is unusual in this space. Before becoming an international medium, I spent 30 years in high-stakes financial environments analyzing businesses, assessing structure, and separating signal from noise — yet I also spent over a decade teaching disciplined spiritual discernment and evidential mediumship.
Now those two worlds converge.

This next chapter focuses on helping intuitive entrepreneurs build calm, profitable, structurally sound businesses so they can serve at a higher level — without financial stress undermining their calling.
If serving Spirit shouldn’t feel financially unstable, you’re in the right place.
