What It Really Means to Be a Medium — Allison DuBois
Podcast: Beyond This.....Published On: Tue Sep 01 2026
Description: Send us Fan MailThis week, Matilda steps away from the usual format for something rawer and more personal. In the middle of a genuinely hard week — watching someone she loves near the end of their life, and her own dog struggling to recover after a procedure — she opens up about a question she's asked constantly: does this work ever make grief easier to carry, even for the medium?Matilda unpacks the myth of the "unshakeable" medium, and why proximity to death and spirit doesn't inoculate anyone against fear or exhaustion — it often does the opposite. She talks candidly about anticipatory grief: the mourning that starts long before a death actually happens, why almost nobody prepares you for it, and how animals in a household often carry that same heaviness in their bodies without a word being said.Midway through, Matilda is joined by fellow medium Allison DuBois for a conversation about the personal cost of this work — how she recovers after emotionally heavy sessions, and what she wishes more people understood about what it takes to hold space for others while carrying your own grief.A more honest, unfiltered episode about what it looks like to keep showing up when you're running on empty.ContactsMatilda's WebsiteMatildas Live Events including in person and Psychic CircleMatilda's Patreon Join her Cold Case Coven HereAllison Dubois ContactsAllisons WebsiteAllisons VodkaLicence for YOUTUBE.
