Confessions of a Former Medium: 25 Years Talking to the Dead

Jenn Nizza spent 25 years as a psychic medium, tarot card reader, and teacher of New Age practices before leaving it all behind at age 36. She describes her former life not as a harmless spiritual exploration but as a systematic opening of doors to demonic oppression that nearly destroyed her. Her story traces how what begins as curiosity about the supernatural can become an inescapable trap.

The Gateway: Tarot Cards as a Child

Nizza's entry point came at age 13, when her mother—a beautician who "had no idea there was anything wrong with this"—allowed her and her sister to receive tarot card readings from a woman at the beauty supply store. The reader treated the cards with reverence, laying them on a velvety cloth, and said things about Nizza's past that she could not have known. "That was the hook for me," Nizza says. "How could she have known A, B, C, and D?"

She and her sister bought their own decks and began doing "consultations" at family gatherings, asking the cards about everything from life decisions to who they would marry. Nizza emphasizes that this looked nothing like gothic or Satanic imagery. "It looks safe. It looks even godly, because a lot of people will use the name of God, use the name of Jesus when they're doing readings. They'll call themselves Christian psychics or Christian witches."

Show Notes

For twenty-five years, Jenn Nizza speaks to the dead. Tarot, mediumship, law of attraction, crystals, astrology. She thinks it is a gift. She thinks it is love and light. What she does not see is the army of familiar spirits standing behind every reading, feeding her names and dates and secrets no stranger should know.
Jenn joins Luke and Nate to expose what really happens on the other side of a psychic reading. She reveals how the New Age recruits, why the church is quietly importing the same practices through the word of faith, and how Jesus reached her at the end of herself. This is not a debate about whether the supernatural is real. Jenn already knows it is. This is the story of how she got out.
