What Happens When a Medium Looks at Your Energy Field? - Erlinda Inniss

Erlinda Inniss is a spiritual guide, manifesting coach, and medium with over 15 years of experience in energy reading and mediumship, whose gifts trace back to a lineage of Filipino medicine women through her grandmother. In this conversation with host Claudiu Murgan on the Spiritually Inspired podcast, Erlinda shares how a racial attack on her metaphysical shop became a turning point that led her into financial services, how meditation is her anchor for managing the emotional weight of thousands of readings, and why she sees spirituality and wealth as deeply connected rather than opposed. She also unpacks the most common misconception about manifestation — that affirmations alone are enough — and offers practical wisdom on distinguishing divine timing from fear-based waiting.

Hello everyone, welcome back to a new episode of the Speech Inspired uh podcast. I am your host, uh Claudio Morgan. For previous episodes, please uh visit or our network, speech toinspired.ca, or our uh YouTube channel. My uh guest is Erlinda Enes, and today we are going to talk about uh energy readings, manifestation, entrepreneurship, and the force that drives us to the things we do in life. So, Erlinda, thank you for joining me today.

SPEAKER_01 0:42

Absolutely, absolutely, thank you for having me.

SPEAKER_02 0:46

And uh, you describe yourself as a spiritual guide, manifesting coach, and medium, and you've recently transitioned into the financial industry. How do you bridge those two wars? Do you see spirituality and financial freedom as naturally connected?

SPEAKER_01 1:04

I do actually, it's interesting because I was talking to a friend um about this a few weeks ago, and I we were discussing how I think when it comes to spirituality, a lot of people think, oh, if I'm super spiritual, that means I can't enjoy money or have money, you know, um, which I I personally think that's kind of odd, but I feel like it is something that's super common um thought process in the spiritual community, at least that I I have been around and interacted with. Um, but I definitely think there's a huge connection there. I definitely believe that we are supposed to be um wealthy, we're supposed to have what we want to have. And I think the more that you have, the more you're in service to others, you know, and so I definitely think that those two things are combined for sure.

SPEAKER_02 2:00

Oh yes, I agree, and we are or others, uh we are proponents of uh being uh financial um independent, being sovereign, and we encourage people to invest in uh gold and silver for sure, because that's a way to preserve uh one's health, uh wealth.

SPEAKER_00 2:18

Yeah, for sure, for sure.

SPEAKER_02 2:21

You've been doing um tarot and energy reading for over 15 years. Uh, what was the moment you realized this was more than a gift? That was your life purpose.

SPEAKER_01 2:32

Um okay, so my grandmother actually um she's from the Philippines, and um the line of women um of my family there were like medicine women, very gifted um women. My grandmother kind of explained to me that these gifts kind of um skipped skipped generations like every other generation or so. And so that kind of hit with me. And um, so I always had these abilities since I was a kid. Um when my grand grandmother passed, it was when I was 12, 13 years old. Um, things really intensified um for me in the sense of my gifts and things. Now I do want to be clear that I am somebody um I do not need tarot or things like that to do a reading. You know what I mean? Um, because I think with the new age stuff that's coming, it's like crystals, tarot, this, that, which is great. You know, those are great tools, but I also think there's a double-edged sword there um as well. Um, I definitely thought that, hey, my gift, um, the biggest thing I'm known for is just energy reading or, you know, at the time mediumship. Um I definitely thought, like, hey, this is this is my path. I'm helping so many people and I'm doing this here. I totally thought that was uh my path. And then I kind of had a situation happen that totally took me in a complete opposite direction. Um, I did open up a metaphysical shop and wellness center um in the midst of this in like 2020, 2019, 2020. Um, and that business was racially vandalized and it was this really big thing. And I guess you could say that was kind of an um upheaval in my next spiritual development, I guess you could say. Um, with that, that led me to what I'm doing now and financial services. I still coach and things like that. Um, but it definitely is a gift I've always had. I still apply it in my life and everything that I do. I think it was just navigating on what sat right with me and how I was connecting with that and being in alignment with that in my life.

SPEAKER_02 4:58

I want to go back for a second to your uh Filipino roots because I know how rich that area is in spirituality, shamanism, energy healing. So have you worked um with your grandmother before she passed to enrich your capabilities and get or learn about these gifts that your ancestors uh developed over the uh hundreds of years?

SPEAKER_01 5:27

Yeah, so yeah, I want to say yes and no, because it's like in that age, past when I was 12, 13, it's like, oh, there's so much more that I could have learned from her, but it was definitely something she was aware of within me for you know, as long as I can remember, and she would, you know, teach me things along the way. Um, and I felt like I had control over that because I can I can see energy, I guess you could say. So that is very different. So how I view things is not the same as everybody else. Um, so that is very different, and learning to navigate that, which was very difficult. Um, and I think while she was here, I was grounded in what I knew and and she had taught me a lot, but I will say that after she had passed was definitely um an enhancement times a hundred is all I can say with that. And so I I had a lot of meditation, um, huge meditation, I'm huge in meditation. I really believe meditation is the key to everything and connecting in that way, um, where I was able to connect with, you know, guides and things like that. Um, for me, that helped me after her passing.

SPEAKER_02 6:42

Interesting. And do you go back there to, you know, learn more? Have you done that over the years, or you are not interested in in that aspect of your life and you just stay with what you have right now?

SPEAKER_01 6:56

Yeah, I I have not been, which is crazy to think that I haven't, but it's interesting because I have had um people that would pop up in my life and and guides, physical guides, I guess you could say, that would pop up that would literally have things from the Philippines for this to get to give to me or share with me. So it was very interesting that I never got to physically go there. I definitely want to plan to, but it was really interesting how it all found me along the way here.

SPEAKER_02 7:27

Yes, and I think you are going to, or you have to spend at least uh a month there to go deeper, immerse yourself into what those people are doing. And uh, I know from other guests that they found a lot of uh knowledge and wisdom and uh energy healers who really brought relief in into their life.

SPEAKER_01 7:48

Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

SPEAKER_02 7:51

You mentioned that uh mediumship uh plays a huge role in helping people who are stuck in grief after losing loved ones. How do you hold space for that level of uh emotional um weight without carrying the home with you?

[Ad] Come Home to Yourself

SPEAKER_01 8:45

Um meditation is definitely key again. Um, but I

(Cont.) What Happens When a Medium Looks at Your Energy Field? - Erlinda Inniss

SPEAKER_01 8:54

would definitely there was a time in my life where I think one year I did over a thousand readings one year. Um that was a lot, way too much. I definitely had to learn to open my container of what I can carry and what I what I can't, but also like I'm definitely in a in a time in my life right now where I do it when I want to or feel really guided to, you know. Um, I'm just in a different time in my life, so I I'm able to definitely be in more balance with that. But that definitely is a big thing because mediumship takes a lot of energy. Um and it depends everybody's different too. So the level of energy that's taking for someone to connect or whatever, depending on what's going on, you know, there's different levels to that. So just always being grounded in myself and meditation. Like I said, I'm I'm a huge meditator, so that's huge.

SPEAKER_02 9:54

And do you follow a specific uh path for meditation or anything uh you developed uh on your own?

SPEAKER_01 10:02

Um I I guess I could I could probably say I have my own path of meditation, um, because I've never went into like a class or to get certified or something like that. You know, I I truly believe, you know, they have all these certifications, stuff like that, and I'm not bashing that at all. I think that's great that people want to do that, but like I think really connecting with source within yourself and with your own energy, you can't get a certification for that. So, because you're always learning somebody else's way, you know, of how to do something, and everybody's unique in how they how they do that. So um I learned meditation from my um guides and things like that, um, and how to get me into a meditation state um really quick and what works for me.

SPEAKER_02 10:54

So yeah, interesting. And do you work with uh you know a lot of um people in the spiritual community they work with uh you know uh extraterrestrial uh entities or you know certain uh saints? Um do you draw your ideas, your energy, your inspiration from someone in particular?

SPEAKER_01 11:18

I mean God, God, Jesus, that is that is definitely um my source right there, you know, 100%. And I know some people um feel some type of way about that. Sometimes, you know, everybody's different, but for me, that's Jesus and God, and that that is 100% where um my source is.

SPEAKER_02 11:40

Beautiful. And would you describe that this source is the same force, the higher force that guided you through your uh entrepreneurial uh journey as well?

SPEAKER_01 11:50

Absolutely, absolutely, yes, absolutely, because you know, as you go and you start to become so aware and you notice the synchronicities, you notice the signs, and I think when you start paying attention to that, you know, source is talking to us all the time. It's just whether we're gonna hear it and see it and listen to it. A lot of us hear it and we listen to it, but we don't do it, you know. So um, yeah, uh definitely.

SPEAKER_02 12:21

And uh what would you advise those who want to connect with their higher self to do? How what's the approach that will be of less resistance?

SPEAKER_01 12:33

Meditation. I know, I you know, I think people get so irritated when I say meditation because it's like, oh, well, I hear people say a lot, I just can't meditate because I can't stop thinking. And I think people have the wrong idea of what meditation is. So for me, meditation is I we're never gonna stop thinking. Like, I mean, we're always gonna be thinking, and if anything, we're we're overthinking, right? And I think the idea of meditation is not to stop thinking, it's to slow down so that way you can receive everything that's coming to you and learning to open your energy container, you know, because then when you can slow it down and you can hear this and see this and process that, it's it's a lot different in how you can be regulated. I think that's why you come across people like, I have anxiety and I have this, and it's just it's pent-up energy that is not regulated and and flowing right. So um, I know people hate when I say meditation because it's work that you have to do. We can't dodge the work, there's no simple, you know, um switch for it, other than hey, meditate, get connected with yourself in that. Um, and I think that's a hard thing to do though for people too, because I I actually had someone that said they were scared to meditate because they're scared to the fear of dealing with themselves.

SPEAKER_02 14:08

Yes, I agree with that.

SPEAKER_01 14:09

And that that is a huge thing, and um, I think if if people can overcome that fear and realize, like, hey, like these comments, they're sometimes they are hard conversations, you know, but you still gotta do it, you gotta do the work, you know, and and that all starts with meditation.

SPEAKER_02 14:26

Yeah, so my suggestion is for your next interview, just write meditation of on a piece of paper. When you'll be asked a question, you just lift that piece of paper.

SPEAKER_00 14:36

I know I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Oh my goodness. I'm just being honest though.

SPEAKER_02 14:43

No problem. So uh Erlinda, we are going through a very transformative period on earth, you know, in the spiritual community and outside, but overall we are one community, you know, humanity. How do you see this uh let's say chaos, this um uh tag of war? Do you find that your life, spiritual life, is much harder and you have to put more effort into staying grounded and balanced, or is the same as before? And how do you see us coming out of this uh turbulent uh period?

SPEAKER_01 15:26

Um gosh, that is a that is like a packed question. Let's see, you would can we divide that up into like two questions? Re-ask that in a different way because I feel like I have 50 answers that just came at that.

SPEAKER_02 15:41

How do you stay grounded during this turbulent time? Yeah, and does it take you more effort to do it, or is business as usual for you?

SPEAKER_01 15:52

So for me, I think right now it's it's it's easier. Um, I think that a lot of what has come um for me and kind of my journey and how it led me was to prepare me, um, me individually for this time and being able to deal with everything because I I have noticed that um a lot of people are very like, oh my gosh, and the remote. And I'm like, yeah. You know, I'm very calm with it. Um, so I would say I know meditation is key for sure. Um, but also I think for me, I've been doing a lot of um putting myself in the position of understanding in this time right now. Um, because I think a lot of the turbulence that you're speaking of and the energy going on is because people are operating in fear, they're operating in lack, they're operating in a lot of lower vibrational um emotions and energies, um, where if we simply put ourselves in a state of understanding, not not uh listening to react, but listening to understand, I think people would really react differently to everything that's going on, you know, because life, the world is perspective, and everybody's on their own individual journey. And we have to remember that yes, we are a collective, but we also are on our own individual journeys as well. And so when we can reach somebody in the state of understanding, it's like, oh, I'm understanding this this person's journey. How is that how is that leading them to me? What are they learning from me, or what am I learning from them? You know, and I I think when you can respond in that way, it helps all people, you know, in in a conversation or you know, in a group setting. You know, you'll see the energy be completely different when when you're doing that.

SPEAKER_02 18:04

Thank you. And now the second part of the question was about what you're feeling on how we are coming out of these turbulent times when you put in the balance what we perceive of dark and light. Are we way ahead on the light side? Because the whole uh, let's say, matrix or the whole um uh construction is starting to to crack, uh, and people can see the corruption, they see that the wars are being uh started to cover up other uh big items. So um what's what's your take on that?

SPEAKER_01 18:43

Um I think that the dark has to be exposed in order for anything to get better, you know, and in order when dark gets exposed, shit is gonna happen, you know, and so it's like we want, I think people again have to go on the understanding of we want better, we want more light, we want this to happen, but we have to go through the darkness to get it, and so I think right now we're going through the darkness, we're dealing with it, it's being exposed, it's ridding itself. So people have to understand like there there is a light at the end of the tunnel, but we gotta go through it to get to the end of it, you know, and so um that's really my stance on that. I again go into the state of understanding when it comes to a lot of different situations going on in the world right now, and and if you could just put yourself in that state, I think it's easier to I don't want to say deal, but deal with the darkness that we have to go through to get there.

SPEAKER_02 19:53

Yes, interesting. Yes. What do you think is the most um common uh misconception about the process of manifestation people usually have?

SPEAKER_01 20:05

Overthinking. I oh man, that's uh I feel like I can go on and on about that one, but I think the misconception too is like if I just say the word or the sentence 20 times, it's gonna pop up, you know, and which does positive affirmation work absolutely, you know, but there also has to be action behind there, there has to be um the awareness to see the opportunities and things that will align you with what you want as well, and taking that action towards it. I think in my experience, that has been the biggest thing is just like, well, I wrote it down 50 times and nothing happened, you know? It's just like okay, you know, we there's more work behind that, and it is an inner thing because when you're just operating from that deservingness and things like that, energy flow is a lot easier.

SPEAKER_02 21:05

Yes, yeah, thank you. And as a young entrepreneur, what uh will be an advice for those who want to start a business at a young age and kind of shield them from some mishaps that happen to you?

SPEAKER_01 21:21

Yeah, I would definitely say having a tight circle of those people that you know can pour into you and vice versa. I'm very big on who I'm surrounding myself with, um, how do they talk? Um, what are they doing? Are they, you know, sometimes uh people come across like jealous friends or you know, things like that. And I just think even if your circle is super small, two, three people, just make sure it's the right people. Or if there is somebody, find somebody that you want to be like and go attached to that person, you know, and and learn those habits and things like that. Because I think my biggest thing was um I didn't really have I don't have a big family, I don't have family, I don't have, you know, um these people that I could really look to. So I had to, I had to find it, you know, and when you don't have that around you right away, that limiting belief is created around you of like, does that even exist? Is that real? You know, but the second I got in contact with the right people, it's like, oh, you know, so I think it's a it's a perspective shift for sure. So I would say if I could have learned that a lot sooner. too on the company I keep that would help.

SPEAKER_02 22:42

Yeah, it's a good answer. Thank you. And this leads me to the next question, which is related to uh you know divine timing and uh synchronicity. So how do you teach clients to distinguish between divine timing and simply waiting out of fear?

SPEAKER_01 22:58

Um so uh one of my mentors um Shane Rudman he is somebody that helped me with that tremendously actually just within the last three years and um any any feeling that is nervousness, fear, confusion is not of higher source. Those are not higher source energies. And I think and that sounds like to me when he said it and maybe was this the timing in my life of when he said it that it really clicked in my head of like oh well duh like duh you know and then so the second I started get confused about something I was like well God does not provide confusion just doesn't you know it provides clarity. So I mean I think when you can start to distinguish and tell yourself though like not saying that fear doesn't exist in the sense of oh maybe like I'm starting something new I'm a little nervous but nervousness is different than fear you know um I think a lot of time too when I've come across people you know the difference between fear and nervousness let's say because fear I've you'll see people straight up spiral out of fear you know nervousness is like okay I'll do it you know but fear is like no and they get very defensive and and you know so the energy is very different. So I think the more you learn yourself um and start divide to divide up what feeling comes from my heart what feeling for me it's between my stomach and and my heart or a lot of people is their head and their stomach you know um there the sooner the sooner you can distinguish that the better you know for yourself and everyone's kind of different though that I've learned in where they feel those feelings so thank you a lot of those feelings are actually I I've come to learn attached to um it can be attached to someone's childhood trauma you know when they get nervous maybe they they start to do something with their arm you know or if they're scared you know so it shows up differently in people yes indeed and Erlinda if you have to summarize all the services you are doing and how people can can reach you can you please do that for us? Yeah so um obviously from financial services I do coaching um we do marketing um as well so it really depends I know those are totally three totally different areas but um for me it's all an alignment because I like to learn people's energy and then we align those things with their energy you know um but people can find me on Facebook um and Instagram um or linda.inis is my Instagram um as well as TikTok and for the uh spiritual side of those you are meeting with are you still doing um readings and help them to go through their uh spiritual um hurdles yeah so right now um anything as far as my spiritual stuff um just shoot me a message i work with people kind of based on if i if i feel to or not right now perfect we're at the end of this wonderful conversation any final words um no just thank you for having me i'm happy to share this information i loved it thank you thank you very much for everything you do thank you and to my viewers thank you for watching share it leave a comment and until next time love and gratitude
