Welcome to 2026!

I started this episode with a recap of what has been going on in my world. I wanted to discuss the beginning of this podcast, the beginning of my journey, and why I ended up where I am today.

From spirituality to collegiate education, and building the bridge of both worlds.

Holistic healing has saved me, and led me back to myself. Its not the easiest path, but its the most rewarding. Sharing my journey has been a healing process for me, and I hope to inspire you all to find your own way.

I ended the episode with Spirit Messages and a tarot card pull.

Page of Pentacles:

Planting seeds for the future. This is your time to make new plans. The beginning of a new daily practice. This is a time to create willingness to take the first step. Sitting down and looking at what you want to accomplish this year.

Two of Wands:

Ready to travel into the future. The momentum calling to understand where you sit. Leaving your comfort zone to adventure into the unknown. Calling back your power. Embrace your bravery to take the next step.

Three of Wands:

Fire horse energy picks up and carries us towards our goals. Trust in divine timing. Letting go of the when, how, what, and embracing the DIVINE timing of how nature works. Trust that small synchronicities and signs are being shown to you daily, and look for them!

High Priestess:

All about your inner knowing. Your intuition and inner truth is your compass this year. This is when you navigate your life you do with through meditation, prayer, and your higher self. Understanding your frequency and how it feeds to world around you. Be mindful of your energy and connect to it daily.

I pulled the Intuition card from my oracle deck that I read and it was beautiful way to close out this reading.

I can't express the amount of gratitude I have not only for my podcast audience, but for the things I have accomplished thus far. I feel proud, grateful, and excited for this new year.

Until next time!

Happy New Year!

How are we in August?!

This year has definitely flown by but let look at our August Spirit Messages:

4 of Wands is an honoring of how far we have come. A beautiful alignment with home life, creativity, and moments of celebration. Recognize your growth. Celebrate the small wins.

5 of Pentacles brings in the duality. This is healing wounds around lack and scarcity. Even in the midst of blessings we can find old patterns arise within us. Don't isolate. Ask for guidance. Don't sit in the lack. This is a struggle card, the shift, the hard stuff that makes you grow. Self-worth is the key. Those trigger moments will test you. The human experience is meant to test us for growth. Calm your nervous system. Self investigate. What is the lesson here?

The King of Swords is stepping into this wisdom and discernment. Clear communication comes in and a new trust in yourself. A good month to gain clarity. What does your inner dialogue look like? Use your wise mind this month. The energy is supportive of that discernment. Give yourself space to have mental clarity moments. Meditate. Organize your thoughts. Free of judgement.

6 of Cups is a return to nostalgia, inner child work, being childlike, an reconnecting with that part of yourself. August seems to bring in those childhood memories, and finding healing in them. There is a remembrance. Ancestral healing. Play medicine. DO THINGS YOU ENJOY DOING FROM YOUR CHILDHOOD.

Oracle Cards: Courage & Change

August feels like a month of Phoenix energy. Burn to be reborn. Sit in the change. Celebrate your progress. Trust your voice. Heal what feels needs healing. Reclaim joy through nostalgia and always remember who you are. Pray. You got this.

Thank you! Please like and share the podcast, and if you feel called, to review I would deeply appreciate it.

How is it June?! We skipped May but life goes on and we all survived. In todays episode I decided to make it short and sweet and use my Tarot deck to pull us some cards.

6 of Cups: This is nostalgia, childhood, and looking back and seeing what we will keep from our childhood and what we will not take forward into our growth.

8 of Cups: Emotionally detaching from what doesn't work for moving forward. Going inward to reflect on what needs to improve or be left behind.

7 of Swords: Facing the shadow parts of yourself that needs to be worked on in order to let go.

8 of Pentacles: Dedication and mastery of skills, work, and finding what lights you up.

Judgement: A wake up call and new clarity that allows you to step fully into your authentic self.

Growth is big this month! Embrace it all!

Please share if this resonated with you and if you know someone in your world needs to hear it.

Thanks to all of you!
