how I got here
A few years ago, someone told me that if I wanted to, I could communicate with spirits. I knew absolutely nothing about what that meant and thought they definitely had the wrong person. But, the idea intrigued me and I was really really curious. So I dove head first into the world of psychics and mediums and connecting to spirits and ghosts. I read a lot of books, took a bunch of classes online and in person, had conversations with others doing this work, and listened to a gazillion podcasts about the world of spirituality. I soon discovered that indeed I could communicate with those on the other side, beginning with some of my own loved ones.
Over the course of a few years, I developed a strong connection to that side of myself by setting aside my own thoughts and learning to tune into a different frequency. I dabbled in all sorts of ways to connect with spirit in an attempt to figure out where this newfound discovery about myself was taking me. I tried mediumship, energy healing, intuition training, meditation, chakra healing, mediumship circles, energy paintings, dream work, and much more. Many things intrigued me, but nothing felt like a perfect fit and often I would find the need to move on to something new. I spent many days and nights wondering what exactly I was meant to do with this seemingly special gift I had. I knew I had something to share with the world, but I just couldn’t quite figure out how.
After many years of starting and stopping, wavering and floundering, I found myself standing on the top of the Eiffel Tower on my 40th birthday. I was reflecting on my life and where it had taken me in the last few years- a lot of places I never imagined, a completely new life path, but also down a path of persistent yet hidden, fear and uncertainty. I was saddened by the fact that I had let fear stand in the way of pursuing my passion of working with spirit to serve others, and though I said I wanted it, I was always half-in, always able to pull out if things got to tough or I sensed failure. In that moment (selfie below), over-looking the city of Paris, on the 40th day of my life, I made a promise to myself. I promised myself that I would stop worrying about what others thought, stop being fearful of the work of a medium, stop being fearful of getting out of balance or not being there for my kids, stop being half-in. I made a promise to myself that I was going *all in* on using my spiritual gifts to be of service to others.
“And that has made all the difference,” according to Robert Frost.
Previous to this work, I grew up in Vermont, pursued the sport of ski racing at Green Mtn Valley School, attended Middlebury College and graduated with a degree in Economics, then lived in Jackson Hole working as a waitress and a Real Estate agent, and finally worked my way to the COO of my family’s real estate development company over 10 years. I’ve always been a creative, an artist, a seeker, but it wasn’t until after having two rambunctious little boys and discovering my spiritual gifts, that I decided it was time to leave my conventional life and pursue this alternative path.
This website combines both parts of me- the human part {the bee} and the spirit side {the butterfly}. I continue to share stories from my life and wisdom from spirit on my blog, as well as offering psychic readings for groups and individuals, in the hopes that others can benefit from the messages that come through me from spirit.
Thanks for coming along on the journey with me!
With love, Lindsay
