STANDING YOUR OWN SACRED GROUND

There comes times in life when you must decide to stand your ground; at work, maybe with your friendships, in your relationship... You must decide if you are going to, as Brené Brown says, “Shrink down, puff up or stand your own sacred ground.” But what happens when you don’t? What happens when a person allows themselves to be invalidated on a regular basis? What happens when you choose to shrink down to fit the people around you? Let’s talk about this today.

Spirit guides can be kinda pushy.

A shoulder injury inspires a new job. And the new work place is HAUNTED AS F*@#!! This experience has me once again, questioning my mental health. But, like a weird blind date that turns into true love, I am divinely guided to my first spirit guide. It’s quite a story!!

Empathy, Energy Work, Intuition & Mental Disorders...is there a common thread? Let’s chat & find out

Many people are finding themselves to be empathetic, but often that leads to feeling overwhelmed by all the feels and thoughts. This episode talks about the beginning stages of intuition, psychic ability, empathy and possible mental disorders associated with “waking up” in this way. You’re not crazy. You’re not alone. And yes, it does get easier and better. Fallow me! I know the path!!

My Brain Injured Mom and Our Shared Paranormal Experiences

Join me for a little time travel as I introduce my mom, Rainbow who passed away several years ago but is now back and as bold as ever in a starring role in my family of spirit guides! A tragic car accident and resulting traumatic brain injury set the stage for the trials and magic that are the foundation of my current life journey. Peyoté trips, talking trees and haunted houses are the norm in my young life, setting the stage for me to question my mental health as an adult. The calling of the non-ordinary realms after my mother’s suicide and eventual initiation into shamanism, have brought my life full circle...at least for now. Is the walk around the medicine wheel ever really complete? My guess is, no; not even when we step off the Good Red Road into the Blue.

Hello, world!! May I introduce myself?

In the beginning was the word and that word was CRAZY!! Marital issues, my mother’s suicide, questionable mental health and a shaman change my life. Just another day in my world...
