What is 2026 trying to show you right now? Have you been missing it?

In this mid-year check-in, we’re revisiting the 2026 Universal 1 Year numerology predictions and looking at how these themes are already showing up in real time, in the world around us and in your personal life.

This is not a vague energy update. We’re looking at real-world examples of the themes I predicted at the beginning of the year, plus how to look for those same themes showing up in your own day-to-day life.

Throughout the episode, I’ll guide you through powerful introspective questions to help you notice the signs, shadows, nudges, opportunities, and patterns that may already be working in your life right now.

You’ll learn:

• How the 2026 Universal 1 Year themes are already playing out in the world
• What the light and shadow of this energy can look like in your own life
• Why discomfort, endings, boundaries, and new beginnings may all be part of the same invitation
• Powerful questions to help you understand what 2026 is trying to show you now

And great news, the second half of 2026 is still wide open. Let’s use this energy consciously so you can create the life you want and deserve.

The celebrations keep coming — but this week the energy is also asking you to check in with yourself in a bigger way.

The cards are highlighting:

• Why the "stuck" feeling you might have right now is an illusion — and how to walk out of it
  
  
• More gatherings, celebrations, and togetherness on the way — with a familiar caution
  
  
• The balance between your spiritual life and your earthly life that this week is calling for
  
  
• A check-in on how you're stewarding your time, energy, and abundance
  
  
• The one practice that unlocks everything else you've been wanting to manifest
  
  

You came here with intuition already built in. This week is asking you to actually use it.

We’re bringing back one of the most important episodes for understanding the energy of this year: 2026 Numerology Predictions: 11 Themes for a Universal 1 Year.

And now we are deep in it: In numerology, 2026 is a Universal 1 Year, the beginning of a brand-new nine-year cycle. After the release, reflection, and completion energy of 2025, this year invites us into fresh starts, identity shifts, courageous choices, self-leadership, and aligned action.

I always love to revisit these yearly energy themes and notice what has already shown up in real life, both personally and collectively. We’ll be doing a half-year check-in on these 2026 themes later this summer, so this “Best Of” episode is the perfect one to revisit now to hear the original predictions and notice what has been unfolding so far in your world.

We're almost at the midpoint of the year and the energy is asking you to take stock, step up, and start planting some serious seeds.

The cards are highlighting:

• A midyear check-in your soul is asking you to take seriously
• Why collaboration is your fastest path to abundance right now
• A reminder not to get discouraged if things feel slower than you'd like
• A resounding YES energy that's about to light up your week
• The master manifestor in you that's ready to come out and play

You have the power. The question is — what are you putting it behind?

This week we're bringing back the energy of those classic 90s magazine quizzes — but with a spiritual growth twist. I've created a five-type people pleasing quiz specifically for sensitives and empaths, because most conversations about this topic don't account for how differently these patterns show up when you can actually feel other people's emotions.

People pleasing doesn't always look like people pleasing — and if you're a sensitive or an empath, it can be especially hard to spot in yourself.

In this episode:

• The five sneaky people pleasing types that hide in plain sight — especially for empaths
• Why your gift of sensitivity can make people pleasing feel like kindness instead of self-abandonment
• How to score yourself as we go — and what your total score actually means
• Why this isn't about never being flexible or never showing up for others
• The moment of recognition that changes everything

Grab something to write with and play along — you'll have your score by the end.

The celebration energy from last week isn't over — but this week adds a layer you're going to want to know about.

The cards are highlighting:

• Why some information still hasn't fully come to light yet — and how to navigate that
• The most emotionally evolved version of you that this week is calling forward
• More celebrations, gatherings, and invitations — with one important heads up
• Someone in your orbit who may be more guarded than they're letting on
• A decision coming that requires you to be neutral, grounded, and really honest with yourself

Your intuition is your superpower this week. The question is — are you listening to it?

Part 8 of the Ask a Medium Anything series is here — You asked, I answered, and this one goes deep.

In this episode:

• How to spot a fake medium — and the red flags to look for before you book
• What mediumship actually is (and what it definitely is not)
• Why your loved one may not have come through in a reading — and what it actually means
• Can you connect with your own loved ones without a medium?
• Do pets communicate from the other side?
• What happens to those who pass through suicide, overdose, or tragedy — from the spirit world's perspective (**TW)

No fear-mongering, no gatekeeping — just honest, grounded answers from over 15 years of experience working with the spirit world.

Summer vibes are here and the energy this week is fun, exciting, and full of new possibilities — but your head needs to stay as engaged as your heart.

The cards are highlighting:

• A wave of exciting energy, opportunities, and invitations coming your way

• A powerful reminder of who you are and what you're actually capable of creating
• A celebration energy that's practically begging you to say yes

You are the alchemist of your life. This week just might be the proof.
