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? 

Flow

Flow 🌊

Do you know which energy state you spend most of your in? Feminine or masculine?

The creative flow of the feminine. Intuitive. Dynamic. One who doesn’t follow rules other than from her own heart. That magnetizing nature. Nothing can resist it. Knowing.

Or

The stable and predictable manner. Willpower. Focused. Requiring structure. The master of planning, full of logic. Knowledge.

Or are you able to integrate the two? Calling in the power of each when needed. 

For an Empath, who embodies a more feminine energy, it can be challenging to call in that masculine energy. Me personally, I happen to have 6 masculine planets/traits & 4 feminine in my natal chart, 5 fire signs, with my moon in Cancer. A Cancer moon is full of feminine energy and intuition.

What this means, is that I naturally have a strong balance between the two. It was only recently though, that I’ve learned my masculine side has stifled my feminine and become overprotective of her. It’s hindered my intuition, something that I allow to guide me without a shadow of a doubt.

Having the awareness and knowing which energetic state you’re in and which one you need to be in at any given moment is crucial to living your best, authentic life. And there are ways you can call in the energy that you need. For example, when I need to call in the masculine energy, I tend to grab a coffee so I can sit down and focus on getting structured tasks done, or exercise to bring myself back into my body. For the feminine, I put on some music and move my body, or meditate, create jewelry, take an epsom salt bath or give myself a Reiki healing treatment and those all seem to get my creative juices flowing.

Having the awareness is the first step in making positive changes. To understand when you’re in a particular energetic state and then knowing what it is that will put you in the energy you need to flourish.

And this is me, calling in the energies that I need, when I need them.
