More about me:
Who are you?
Well now, there's a question with an ever-changing answer!
I'm Kayla, a 30-something with a love for personal growth & inner transformation. A girl with a passion for her own healing & self-discovery. I'm someone that finds great satisfaction in self reflection & in expanding my own awareness as I learn to meet myself on a deeper level.
I come from a controlling offshoot of traditional Christianity that did not allow me to explore or question my beliefs. At 25, I left the religion & set out on a unique journey of deconstructing my belief systems & learning to let myself explore my own relationship to spirituality.
What got you started in the world of energy?
It all started in 2018 when I took my first level of Usui Reiki through a local teacher. I had experienced receiving reiki & was curious to learn more. The class taught me about energy which was something I knew nothing about. I learnt about my own energy & the importance of keeping it clear as some of us tend to naturally absorb or carry energies from other people. This struck a chord deep within me.
For as long as I could remember, I had had intense anxiety. The countless times I'd need to leave work early, the social engagements I'd left or couldn't make it to, the trips to the bathroom to sob, shake & resist panic... only to panic more. Every day of my life, every part of my life, felt completely controlled by anxiety.
For years, I was on medication, sometimes trying a new one in hopes that it would have less side effects or make things easier for me. I tried counselling with multiple therapists but never seemed to get further than just scratching the surface. I felt completely hopeless & pretty much decided that this was just my life & I was not able to enjoy the same things as other people.
But hearing that some are hyper sensitive to this thing called energy, well that just hit me differently. What if I was experiencing constant overload from every part of life because I was actually more sensitive than most people? What if I could learn to clear away the energy that I was absorbing & even find a shred of relief?
I was hooked. For years after that first class, I'd find myself researching words like "energy" & "chakra" just soaking in every bit of information I could find. I'd be blessed with insights from strangers that became friends & mentors, teaching me how to make spiritual & emotional boundaries. And I'd practice over & over again.
Things did not change quickly or easily. This part of my healing was very gradual & in fact it has only been in reflection that I have seen the incredible progress. And it's not that learning about energy "fixed" everything. There's been a great deal of effort placed into transforming my internal world: my beliefs & thought patterns. But focusing on my energy opened a huge doorway for me & was enough to help me get the space & clarity needed to go deeper into my healing.
Have you always been intuitive?
Unknowingly, yes.
Looking back on my life I can remember many instances where I would have a feeling that something was going to happen & it would happen, or I'd sense something about someone & then find out I was correct. But my religious background told me that psychic abilities were very wrong & satanic, so I never thought any more of my experiences than pure coincidence.
Again in reflection I can see that I've had many spiritual & "supernatural" experiences throughout my life, I just didn't have the freedom to see them that way.
Nurturing my intuition has been more about learning to trust myself than anything else. We're all intuitive - it's human nature - but most of us have been taught to question & doubt ourselves so trust takes practice.
Was it your dream to have this kind of business?
Oh, I never would've guessed that I'd be doing this! Starting a business to facilitate healing sessions for others was definitely not on my radar, nevermind discovering my intuitive gifts & offering readings for people!
But once I saw the incredible changes within myself, I felt compelled to help other people. It started with friends & acquaintances, then went to hosting sessions for actual clients out of my home. It didn't take long for someone to suggest sharing an office together & the rest just unfolded into where I'm at now!
This may not have been what I imagined for myself but it is everything I never knew I wanted. I had no idea that I could be a helping hand to so many people & I will always be overwhelmingly grateful for the chance to help others change their lives.
What's one thing you want most for your clients?
I want my clients to feel empowered.
Actually, I want people in general to feel empowered, to learn to trust themselves, to know that the answers exist within them & they are capable of so much more than they realize!
I want people to have the chance to feel their own intuition guiding them, to feel true clarity in their life & to still feel safe when things are completely unknown. I want people to see their courage, their fire, their beauty & their potential.
And if I can in any way help them to get there, I know our paths will cross.
Thank you for being here & for taking the time to read my story. Whatever it is that brought you to a website like mine, you can trust that you will be guided to exactly what you're needing.
With love,
Kayla
