Types of Empaths

Did you know there are several different types of empaths?

In my work as a therapist over the years, I can recall picking up on emotions from clients - in various settings, namely my work on crisis units. Until I discovered I was an empath though, I would always wonder why I was so incredibly stressed or drained after work, when my other colleagues weren’t affected that badly. It lead to a slew of bad decisions, mostly lots of drinking to “blow off steam”.

I began to wonder if it was me. Was I just super sensitive? Or were my cases just really heavy & intense. At that time, I hadn’t come across the term empath yet and had no idea I was one.

One client in particular was a young teenager. She was struggling with severe anxiety and her parents accepting that she felt like she was in the wrong body. I held a family conference in my office with her and her parents, who were very religious. Over the course of the meeting things began to grow in intensity. 

I could physically feel her pain. Her anxiety. Her feeling like she wanted to crawl into a hole or better yet, run away. I’m feeling all of those emotions again even typing this, along with a migraine trying to come on - that’s how strong our gifts are. I remember the terrified look on her face as she began to shut down. She felt hopeless.

Thankfully, when by the time I encountered this particular client, I already knew of my gifts, and because of that, I was able to help her feel less alone. We are always sent those who need us or those we can learn from - in ways they couldn’t from others.

You have unique, special gifts. Being an empath is a gift. 💜

A Huge Leap of Faith

A week ago I took a huge leap of faith

I quit my job. 

I’m saying goodbye to my full time job as a social worker.

But this time is far different than those times before. This time things are far more in alignment with my soul’s mission. I’m 100% in alignment with the life I’m meant to live here on Earth. As an Empath, Reiki Energy Healer & Starseed. 

My light assignment/soul contract as a social worker at my last place of employment is over. So how did I know this?

Have you ever walked into a room and felt something was off? You could feel the energy of the room and it made you feel incredibly uncomfortable? Well that’s exactly how I felt when I would walk into the building I used to work in.

Not only was it a toxic environment due to the nature of the work itself, but there was evidence of black mold, and management had become so corrupt in how they treated their employees. I held out for as long as I physically could.

My health had started to suffer this last year and a half. I started to have migraines more frequently that lasted longer, in fact, there were times when I had them weekly. I started showing signs of adrenal fatigue and would arrive home at 5:30pm and be asleep by 6:30pm. I had to start taking medications to assist my thyroid in functioning better, as I had brain fog, low energy, felt depressed, no motivation and I was cold all the time.

I reached out to other healers and intuitives and asked for guidance. And they all said the same thing, that my soul mission was done there. And I was terrified. At first.

I asked the Universe for guidance and a plan began to develop. I know some may not understand at all, scratch their head and tell me I’ve lost it, but I’ve had countless signs and confirmation from the Universe telling me, it’s time. 

So I decided wholeheartedly to follow my intuition, my clairsentience, my clairaudience & my clairvoyance. To trust deeply in my abilities and know without a shadow of a doubt that the Universe has my back, and that by taking this leap, the Universe will reward me for listening to my intuition and taking that giant scary leap.

It is now time time to pursue my soul’s mission. And I honestly feel relieved. I’m not scared at all, because this time, I have complete faith in myself, in my abilities and in the Universe and my mission. I know exactly what I came here to do and just how to do it.

I am now calling in all of those who resonate with my story to let you know, I have much more availability to work 1:1 with those who feel called to have distance or in person energy healing session, who want to discover their soul’s mission and come up with a plan to pursue it, and will be rolling out my long overdue Empath ebook and Starseed course.

My testimony is evident in this picture; I am much more lighter than I’ve been since I can remember.

It’s time to shine your light, no longer playing small and dimming your light to fit in with society’s standards. 2020 is here, the only question is, are you ready to take the leap with me? 

Taking My Power Back

Longboat Key, FL Feb 2017

Taking my power back ✨

In Feb 2017 I was incredibly lost.

I had just had a major falling out with a friend, was invested in online dating because I craved a partner to feel worthy, and I was struggling to make ends meet only working a PRN job as a social worker. 

I was in desparate need of guidance and direction.

I felt anxious and depressed and at times had thoughts of “why am I here?” and wanting to no longer be on this planet. My anxiety was so bad at times that I would just sit there and shake, feeling incredibly paralyzed.

A friend suggested I try Reiki, to see if that would give me the insights I was looking for. I had never heard of it and was skeptical, but I was so desparate for any sort of help, that I found and connected with a beautiful soul and Reiki Master. It was also around that time that I discovered I was an Empath.

I had my first session with her and the visions that I had during my session were so incredible. I saw my higher self in a beam of starlight transcend down into my body to be reconnected.

I saw a swirling white light above my left eye, which is where I always get migraines. She later told me it was to cut out a sea urchin that had planted itself in my eye.

Sounds unreal right? 

But since being introduced to Reiki, my anxiety is gone. I became a Reiki Master myself and do self healing treatments for my migraines, adrenals & thyroid. To heal chakra issues, especially root, sacral and solar plexus chakras, related to not feeling safe, stable or good enough, feeling insecure, ungrounded, and absorbing everyone else’s energy all the time because I’m an Empath. And the list goes on.

There is much more to this story of mine, as you can probably imagine. But I share a piece of me to let you know, you’re not alone. That anxiety and depression and suicidal thoughts aren’t meant for you. That there is healing for you. That you are worthy of everything you desire. That you’re not crazy, you just feel everything so deeply and that is ok. 

I may not be exactly where I want to be, but I no longer struggle with anxiety, depression and feeling unworthy. Everything flows easily to me now. I know my worth and believe in myself and have faith that the Universe always has my back. And that is a win in my book.

And I am here for you…ready when you are

Longing For Home

Mintaka, Orion’s Belt

Longing for home 💜✨

My origins as a starseed, I discovered in a reiki session about a year ago, began on Mintaka, the furthest star on the right-hand side of Orion’s belt. I have however, been on many planets, incarnated many times, and was apart of both Atlantis & Lemuria. All of these lifetimes & experiences make up who I am, but I will share the other pieces to my story soon.

Mintakans are from a watery planet and we’re the first star beings to travel to Earth. We are the original Lightworkers. 

The water was so pure there you could see through it for miles, which is probably why I chose to be near Siesta Key. I feel most at peace and at home near or when in crystal-clear water. 

Part of my mission here is to help empower & heal others and teach others to see the potential in everything & the light in all beings.

I have always longed for ‘home’ and have always looked for Orion in the stars. I have often struggled with feeling like I don’t belong. This is because it is presumed that my home planet is no longer in existence, that we are just seeing the remaining light that’s left.

I share this part of my story, in the hopes that this resonates with even one soul, so that you may know you belong and you are not alone.

I will share more about my starseed origins soon.

Much love & light 💜🌌✨

Starseed Characteristics

I’ve been so incredibly hesitant to talk about this for so long, out of fear of judgment. 

In fact, I have tears even as I start to post this on my personal page. I can hide behind my Instagram and my Empath/jewelry page. Funny how complete strangers will accept and support you, no questions asked. But when it comes to those who know you in person, “friends”, family or coworkers, they look at you like you have 3 heads...like you’re literally from another galaxy. Well...I’m definitely not an Earthseed.

So, in an effort to use my voice, #starttospeak and be a guide & wayshower for those who need me...I’m no longer remaining silent. And if this doesn’t resonate with you or you think I’m crazy and want to judge me...there’s the unfriendly button conveniently located for you. My mission is far too important to worry about what others think of me...for once.
