Renowned spiritual medium Maureen Hancock talks psychic ability

A new Style Network documentary special, "Psychic in Suburbia," follows the out-of-this-world life of nationally renowned spirit medium Maureen Hancock, a wife and mother from Boston who also speaks to the dead.

Hancock's mission is to help as many lives as she can by spiritually communicating with the departed, helping to bring closure and clarity to grieving individuals.

The special is part of the "Style Exposed" initiative, which introduces inspiring, compelling and thought-provoking documentaries that explore some of the most talked about topics and trends.

Hancock is on set today with Kiran Chetry to talk about when she realized she had psychic ability, how she "reads" someone, and how she deals with people who are skeptical of her capabilities.
