Since I was a young child, I knew I could telepathically communicate with animals. My first experience was with my dachshund, Ripple. I was about 7 years old and already knew I had a stronger than average bond to animals. Ripple was expecting her first litter of puppies after getting out of our yard on accident. I was concerned for her safety because some of my friends and I were playing ball in the yard and she kept getting in the middle. I remember sitting on the ground with her, looking in her eyes and thinking in my head, “I’m afraid you and your babies are going to get hurt. Please go lay in your dog house until we are done playing.” To my astonishment, she turned around, walked back to her dog house and laid down. I was in shock but didn’t think much of it. I was only 7 years old and had no idea it was even possible to talk to animals at that point.
Shortly after that first experience, I began having more and more instances like this as well as visions of the future and just knowing things that there was no reasonable explanation as to how I could knew them. When I was 9 years old my mom became pregnant with her second child. One morning I was on my way home to my mom after spending the night at my grandparents house, when all of a sudden I just "KNEW" my mom had a miscarriage. I honestly didn't even know what a miscarriage was. I just knew my mom had one and I wouldn't be getting a sibling just yet. When I walked into the house my mom was sitting at the kitchen table, asked me to sit down and told me she had something she needed to talk to me about. Before she could say more I responded, "You lost the baby, didn't you?" She never asked how I knew that. Maybe she assumed my grandma told me.

I continued having experiences like those throughout my childhood. I knew when our dogs was sick or when an earthquake was coming. I even had prediction dreams including one about a big fire behind my home that happened about a year after I had the very vivid dream. I still never considered myself psychic. Probably because when I thought about what makes someone a psychic, I always thought it meant they knew everything and could read minds, which is for sure not the case.
I accidentally stumbled upon the answer to what was happening to me in my late teens, early 20s, when a family member started talking about this Animal Communicator she met a few years prior. This pet psychic had put out a series of instructional cassette tapes that this family member actually purchased. She loaned me the tapes and after listening to them all I began practicing more and more on animals until I was confident enough to start charging for my services in 2002.
The story of how I learned I am also a medium, goes back to 2004 when my world crumbled after the sudden death of my mother. I have never felt that kind of emotional pain before or since. I fell into a very deep depression. I tried everything to help pull myself out of it... grief support groups, church groups, antidepressants, therapy...you name it, I tried it. Nothing helped me...until Highlan. Highlan was a psychic medium I had a reading from in 2002. I hadn’t spoken with her since that reading, but out of the blue in November 2005, Highlan phoned me to let me know she was available for readings. There she was just when I needed someone most. A couple of days later we met at her house and she connected to my mom almost instantly. Her reading did everything for me that none of those other things could... I was able to finally get closer after my moms death. Through Highlan my mom and I were both able to say what we needed to say and put some closure on things. Everything changed for me after that day. I felt alive again. I felt like I could accept what had happened and move on finally. And Highlan did that for me with her special gift. I have never been so grateful in my life. After that day I felt an even stronger bond with my mom. I learned to recognize the signs she was sending me and how to interpret them as messages.
Over the next decade or so, my mom and her divine intervention, played a huge role in my life. I went through a painstaking divorce, moved back to my home state, spent 7 years caring for my grandmother, got remarried and started whole new life with my new husband, Danny. Throughout this time I always knew my mom was right there beside me each step of the way. In 2017, I was helping a very sweet woman named Maureen with her sick cat by giving him Sub Q fluids and medication that she just couldn’t administer herself. On my second visit, as I was walking out the door, she asked if my mom or grandma had passed. I told her both and she responded with “They want you to know they are here with you and not to worry because you’re going to be ok!” I was going through a lot at that point in my life and I really needed to hear that. Over the next several days when I would visit to care for her cat, we would talk and she would tell me messages from my mom, amongst other things she felt. She knew my mom had brought us together for a reason and boy was she right!! One of things my mom told Maureen was that I have the gift to talk to the other side and that if I put it to use it could be very beneficial for me, as well as others that I could help with my gift. I really had no idea where to start so I did some research and found a few Facebook groups dedicated to helping people like me learn how to use their gifts. This helped me a lot but I still felt like I wasn’t totally connecting. Then one night, I started looking through some of my husbands photo albums and started hearing things from people in the pictures that had crossed over. Over the next 4 hours, I communicated with every family member and friend that we could think of on the other side. Something changed in both my husband and myself after that night.

Now that the door to the spirit world was opening for me, I wanted to learn as much as possible about my new found gifts. I became obsessed with talking to as many spirits on the other side as possible. I joined a bunch of free reading pages on Facebook and did probably a couple hundred readings in less than a week. I think I was trying to prove to myself that this was actually happening to me. And I can proudly say in-fact it really was. The term spiritual awakening was not something I had heard of before that night. I had no idea at first but that’s exactly what I was experiencing and it changed my life forever.
Since that night in 2018, I have done thousands of readings for people all over the world. I have learned so much about myself, the spirit world and how to use the abilities and gifts I have been given. I absolutely love my new life as a psychic medium and being able to share what I've learned with so many people. My goal is to change the world with what I see and know. That may seem impossible but for me with every person, animal or spirit I help, gets me closer to that goal.
PEACE AND LOVE!
