What does it mean to truly reinvent yourself at any age? In this episode of the Awakened Heart Podcast, Phyllis Okun shares her remarkable journey from teacher to entrepreneur, bestselling author, and now professional medium.

Known to many as Carole P. Roman and Brit Lunden, Phyllis has written over 83 books, including the Amazon bestseller The Big Book of Silly Jokes for Kids and the young adult fantasy Grady Whill and the Templeton Codex, which has been optioned for a screenplay.

After co-founding and growing BLS Limo with her late husband into an international company, Phyllis faced the deep loss of his passing. That profound grief opened the doorway to her natural abilities in mediumship-work that has since been endorsed by Thomas John, the “Seatbelt Psychic.”

Today, she is known as Lady Phyllis, guiding a devoted clientele and teaching courses that demystify mediumship for new generations.

In our conversation, we explore: ✨ How loss can open the path to spiritual gifts ✨ The power of family and intuition in transformation ✨ Common misconceptions about mediumship ✨ Why reinvention is always possible, no matter your age

This is a story of courage, creativity, and living with an awakened heart.
