Colin Bray’s story is not what most people expect when they hear the words healing medium.
In this open and often hilarious conversation, Colin shares the extraordinary path that took him from a working-class upbringing in Rotherham, through life as a stripper performing across the UK and even in Japan, to finding a deeper calling in healing and mediumship.
But this is not just a story about transformation. It is about hardship, ego, addiction, bankruptcy, feeling emotionally shut down, and the slow process of learning empathy, peace, and self-understanding.
Colin opens up about why mediumship did not come easily to him, what he feels is missing from parts of modern Spiritualism, and how spirit helped inspire his memoir, The Memoirs of a Stripper’s Journey to a Healing Medium.
This is a conversation about the unexpected roads life can take us down — and how even the darkest chapters can become part of the person we are here to become.
