From Pain to Purpose
Many have been wondering how I got to where I am today, especially how I became a psychic medium seemingly out of the blue, or rather at a “ mature” age (lol). I thought I would write the coles note version of my story below.
Today I live with a level of peace, authenticity, and self-awareness I never knew was possible.
If you had met me many years ago, you probably would have thought I had a wonderful life, and at that time, I would have agreed with you. I was living the life I believed I was supposed to.
I had a good job, the marriage with 3 amazing kids, I was deeply engaged in my community, and lived a very active and healthy lifestyle.
However, what I couldn’t see then was how years of suppressing emotions, avoiding myself, and living without genuine self-worth were quietly shaping my inner world — manifesting not only as emotional suffering, but eventually within my physical body as well.
So when I turned 40 years old, my life turned upside down. My body began suffering greatly with chronic and unexplained health issues.
My quality of life tanked quickly.
At the time, I FELT BROKEN and believed my body was failing me. I was miserable.
For 10 long years, I dedicated my time, effort and resources to my health, searching for answers. Trying everything with no results. I was deeply unhappy, but like most, I pushed through and carried on with a smile on my face. Inside I was screaming, crying and hurting.
What I know now was that it was me that was failing my body, not the other way around. My body was trying to get me to acknowledge all the parts of me that I had silenced for years.
To make a long story short, I hit rock bottom. I was living my crisis moment, the one you hear others have that shakes them up, that makes them change and do things differently. This was mine.
Around the age of 49 I for some reason started to pay attention (without knowing it mind you) to the signs and synchronicities before me, not knowing where it was going to lead me. At 50 years old I discovered that I could communicate with the beautiful souls of the unseen.
Who knew? Because it certainly wasn’t me.
Never in my wildest dreams would I have believed that about myself.
Looking back at my life, there were definite signs and experiences that should have clued me in, but, it never was on my radar to see myself any different than those around me. I was in the habit of dismissing and ignoring myself.
My newfound awareness of my gifts initiated my healing journey. Spirit taught me how to heal. I know now, that I needed these beautiful soul gifts of communication with Spirit, for Spirit to teach me.
On this journey, I realized I had drifted away from who I truly was, I unknowingly succumbed to generational patterns, societal pressures, and past conditioning that slowly pulled me out of alignment with myself.
For the first time, I began listening to that inner voice I had spent years ignoring, dismissing, and distrusting.
As I continued developing my abilities, I became more aware of myself. I learned how to truly love myself. I learned my INHERENT value and my self-worth.
I learned to take personal responsibility for my thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors.
I learned to recognize and release the past conditioning, those limiting beliefs, and negative inner narratives that influenced my choices. I worked through past life influences, karmic patterns and so much more.
Today, I have the privilege of working with others on their journeys.
Not only do I feel the honour of providing messages from their loved ones in spirit, but by guiding individuals to become aware of their truth, take their personal responsibility and heal to break these generational cycles.
It was my own pain, healing, transformation, and lived experience that taught me how to guide people. Because I know what it feels like to lose yourself, to live on auto pilot and not even know you are doing it… and I know what it takes to become yourself again.
My healing journey transformed my pain into purpose.
A purpose rooted in helping others reconnect with themselves, heal, and live more authentically.
If there is one thing I hope you take away from my story, it is this:
No matter your age, or how disconnected, lost, stuck or unhappy you may feel, it is never too late to reconnect with yourselves, to clear your past, to heal your present, and to create a life that is fulfilling, joyful and deeply peaceful.
