Hi, I'm Bri
And I talk to the dead.
Ok, ok, let me put that more eloquently - I connect to our loved ones in spirit who are in the afterlife. I know a lot of folks avoid the word dead, and death, but it is the very thing that shows me the meaning of life. It's our one guarantee, and it's the lens through which I view life.
These "about me" things are so hard to write; I never know what to say. I think this is the part where I'm supposed to tell you how wildly talented I am?! But in all honesty, I'm just a person writing this in my pajamas on my comfy couch with one of my cats screaming at me because it's their dinner time.
I really had no idea I was going to become a medium. Now I do it as my full-time job?! 6 years ago, my job was as a regular schmegular government employee. I spent my day wondering which sushi I would get for lunch, not talking to strangers and wondering which of their dead relatives I'd be talking to?!
While this twist of fate was surprising, it also really wasn't. I've always been a lil' weirdo, too sensitive, talking too much, a theatre kid, stopping to smell every flower I pass, talking some more... I even told everyone I was a fairy when I was growing up.
The day I was born, I nearly died! Hours after being born, I said "SEE YA!" to earth and went on my way, having my near-death experience the very day I got here. My mom heard a voice in spirit tell her to go check on me, its a crazy story, and I tell it in full detail in a video below if you want to check out how I got to be, well, me! So no, not totally surprising. But like most of us, I fell into the trap of becoming who I thought I was supposed to be, and not who I truly am. But all along, I knew I was meant for something else. I had a deep yearning to help others and went on the journey of a lifetime to find and realize my full self. I wish I could say there was one snap of the fingers, a wave of a magical wand moment that made me realize this. But it wasn't. It was like waking up slowly from a long slumber, and remembering parts of me that I had tucked away safely.
That's how mediumship felt to me the first time I did it. It was like remembering a sacred language inside of my self that I didn't know I knew. I think people want to hear a really crazy story of this happening, but in all honesty, mediumship to me feels as easy as breathing. It's what I'm meant to do, and it's what I love to do.
(OK here's the part where I brag)
It's been 6 years since I figured this all out about myself, and since then I have done over 3,000 medium readings all across the world. I have connected with folks at home here in Canada, the USA, Australia, Singapore, Spain, England, Italy, and beyond!
I've hosted over 50 group readings across Canada in Collingwood, Kitchener, Waterloo, Guelph, Hamilton, Peterborough, Halifax, Saint John, Calgary, Banff, and Paris (Paris, Ontario lol BUT MAYBE ONE DAY THE REAL THING!).
I'm a BIG lover of local. Our local spots are fuelled by folks who turn the ordinary into magic. Small businesses are the heartbeat of our communities, and heart is at the centre of everything I do. You'll find my group medium readings at your local coffee shop, restaurant, boutique, bookstore, flower field, you name it - I'm there. It starts with an invitation from someone with a big heart and ends with us all passing around tissues after a touching group medium reading.
I'll do this work until there is no longer air in my lungs. It's my gift that I get to bring to the world, and I am so lucky to get to do it. Anyway, I hope that helps you get a better picture of who I am. I'm nothing without you folks who trust me to bring your loved ones to life through what feels like sheer magic & miracles. -Bri
Everyone talks about how draining this work is. I couldn't disagree more. My work is like being injected with soul-life-rocket-fuel! Sitting in a windowless office doing work that didn't light me up, now that was exhausting. I get to meet the most incredible people (living and dead!), I get to see and feel all the love that exists between two beings while I act as your telephone to the afterlife, and I get to truly understand what it means to live a good life. Plus, I get to wear sequins to work and no one questions it.
Speaking of a good life. It turns out, once I started digging around the closet of "who am I?", I figured out mediumship wasn't the only thing in there! I'm a proud member of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community. I have an incredible partner named Sarah. She's my other reason for being here. Her, and our 4 cats (how lesbian of us right?!) Being a queer person, I think I bring a special rainbow coloured lens to readings that benefits my fellow queer folks.
