From Imagination to Intuition
Amy Utsman’s journey into mediumship began long before she knew what to call it. Raised in a Catholic family with roots in the U.S. and Caribbean, Amy always sensed something “more.” As a child, her vivid experiences felt like imagination—but they were actually the early signs of a powerful connection with Spirit. While others may have dismissed these moments, Amy carried them quietly, unaware they were the foundation of her life’s work.
The Unexpected Path
Amy studied psychology in college but discovered her first career love in the heat of a bustling kitchen. She graduated from an acclaimed culinary school and climbed the ranks from cooking on the line to leading massive kitchen teams serving up to 5,000 guests at a time. Amid the steam and sizzle, however, her intuitive gifts continued to simmer beneath the surface, growing stronger and more insistent.
It wasn’t just an “overactive imagination.” It was insight, connection, and sensitivity — abilities that made her realize she was not just witnessing energy shifts and Spirit communication … she was meant to use them.
Answering the Call
Once Amy embraced her calling, there was no turning back. She dedicated herself to mastering her mediumship, seeking to serve both Spirit and the living with integrity, precision, and heart. As a reader, she quickly became known for her accuracy, compassion, sensitivity and humor. Since 2008, she’s given thousands of readings to people across the globe — offering comfort, clarity, and deep healing.
Teaching with Heart, Humor and High Standards
In 2019, Amy co-founded Whole Medium Academy® with her spouse, Nancy Scheel. The Academy was born from a shared mission: to raise the standards of psychic mediumship and provide a welcoming, high-vibe learning environment for students at all levels. As a teacher, Amy is grounded, wise and approachable, always nurturing her students’ potential.
Both new and seasoned students alike find Amy’s teaching style refreshingly honest, deeply skilled, and often delightfully funny. She creates a safe, open-hearted space where students stretch beyond their comfort zones — and discover what they’re truly capable of!
The Journey Continues …
Amy’s connection to Spirit continues to evolve. To this day, she continues her drive to keep refining her mediumship — and she brings that passion into every class and reading. Primarily Spirit-trained, she has also studied closely with the revered “medium’s medium” Mavis Pittilla. As well, she’s a certified medium with the Forever Family Foundation and Mark Ireland, and a Lisa Williams Certified Master Teacher.
Amy also volunteers with Helping Parents Heal, and regularly shares free teachings through her free webinars and YouTube videos.
