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

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 emotional responsibility and the stories we choose to hold onto.
From there, we explore what intuition actually is. Not something mystical or vague, but a powerful biological early-warning system designed to guide and protect us.
I also share a deeply personal story about my daughter that became a defining moment in my own journey of learning to trust intuition fully and follow it with courage.
If you’ve ever second-guessed your inner knowing, felt the tension between intuition and logic, or wondered how to develop stronger intuitive awareness, this episode will help you reconnect with the guidance that already lives within you.
In this episode you'll discover
• The Reiki teaching that changed how I take responsibility for my emotions
• Why intuition often arrives before logic
• How your nervous system processes intuitive signals instantly
• Why we override our inner knowing
• How Intuitive Reiki can help develop intuition and spiritual awareness
Learning to listen to your intuition may be one of the most important skills you ever develop — because the guidance you’re searching for has always been within you.

What if your deepest healing began the moment you decided to trust your intuition?  What if the strength you needed was already inside you, waiting to be awakened?
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 intuitive messages she received, the spiritual awakening that unfolded, and the moment she realised she could partner with her body to heal. Her story is deeply moving, filled with raw honesty, courage, and the kind of wisdom that can only come from lived experience.
Together, we explore:
 🔸 How intuition becomes a compass during life’s hardest moments
 🔸 Messages from spirit and the signs that guided her healing
 🔸 Breakthroughs that changed her perspective — and her health
 🔸 The powerful role of belief and the mind–body connection
 🔸 How to honour medical advice while embracing complementary healing
Karen’s journey is a beautiful reminder that our body holds incredible wisdom, spirit is always speaking, and healing is possible in ways we may never expect.

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 ended 17 years of anxiety.
In this episode, I walk you through the mindset shift that stopped me from “dress rehearsing tragedy” and brought me back into presence, gratitude, and spiritual trust. This insight has guided my healing work for years, and I share it in the hope that it brings comfort and clarity if you’re navigating something hard.
If your mind often jumps to “What if?”, this episode is a gentle reminder that you don’t have to live there.
🌟 In this episode, I share:
What happened the day we received the diagnosis
How catastrophic thinking takes hold
Brené Brown’s concept of “dress rehearsing tragedy”
The Reiki principle that interrupts fear
How to return your energy to the present moment
The words my psychologist shared that changed everything
The outcome of my husband’s cancer journey
A spiritual perspective for anyone facing uncertainty

Discover Deep Soul Love Through Learning Intuitive Reiki
Story Time:  I share one of the most touching moments I’ve ever experienced while teaching Reiki. During a Reiki attunement in one of my workshops, a beautiful soul, a foster parent in his 50s who felt the love of his own soul for the very first time. It was a moment of pure awakening… and it changed both of us.

We’ll explore what Reiki attunement really is, how it opens the heart to deeper connection, and why these moments of spiritual remembering can lead to profound healing, self-worth, and inner peace.
