Getting Personal: My Story, My Healing & Why I Walked Away From Everything

Getting Personal: My Story, My Healing & Why I Walked Away From Everything

I don't talk about this enough. But today, I'm getting personal — because I think someone out there needs to hear this.

Ten Years of Giving My Life Force Away

For ten years, I was in a career that was slowly, quietly sucking the life out of me. And I kept telling myself the same thing so many of us do: if I just keep going, if I just move up, it will get better.

It didn't get better. It got worse. Because no matter how high I climbed, I was still climbing the wrong mountain. I wasn't doing what my soul's path was calling me to do — and my body, my energy, my spirit knew it, even when my mind refused to listen.

I made it to the top of that career. Ten years in. And then one day, I walked in and put in my two weeks notice.

What finally pushed me over the edge? A single oracle card draw.

Everything that doesn't align must go.

That was it. That was the message I had been waiting for — or maybe the one I had been avoiding. That's when I really started listening to my guides and to Source.

The Courage I Didn't Know I Had

Here's the thing — during those ten miserable years, I hadn't been completely lost. I had started my crystal healing journey. I had been quietly building something. But I didn't have the courage to trust it. To trust myself.

I was so deeply programmed — like so many of us are — to believe that being a good daughter, a good citizen, a good person meant trading your time, your energy, and your life force for a paycheck. Go to school. Get a degree. Get a career that pays well. Spend 30 years giving your life force to something that gives nothing back. And then retire, and maybe — maybe — get 10 or 20 years to actually live.

But by then, most people are so drained they don't even get to enjoy it.

I knew there was something more. I could feel it. Something was calling me, and I knew I could make a difference. I just had to be brave enough to answer.

What Happened After I Quit

After I put in my notice, life moved fast — and beautifully.

One week after I quit, I married my husband in a stunning ceremony in a rose garden, surrounded by only our closest family. It was intimate, it was magical, and it was everything. It was one of the things I had been putting off for so long because I was too consumed by a life that wasn't mine.

After our wedding I turned my attention to healing myself. And the first thing that called to me was meditation- I was craving silence after so many years of constant noise. Meditation taught me to quiet my mind and decipher between my thoughts and those that were programmed or some one else's. 

Meditation led me to my chakras. My body's energy centers. Which needed some major healing. I had some chakras that were completely closed due to ignoring and hiding emotions for so long and the chakras that were open some of those werent even in correct alignment. And I always wondered why I felt so out of whack! Healing my chakras and coming back into alignment with my original blueprint made it so that universal energy flowed to me and thru me with no blocks. So instead of using and creating my own energy source was providing it for me.

I then went on to heal my past life trauma and karma in order to stop carrying the baggage from other life times that was holding me back in this lifetime. I broke old contracts and vows and reclaimed my authority and soul fragments that were left else where waiting for me to remember them. This also helped open some of my chakras.

Then I turned my full attention to what I had been quietly building for the last two years: 3 Sisters Co. Crystals & Oddities.

I had been doing little vendor fairs on the side, little by little, while still working my corporate job. But once I had the time — the real, devoted, soul-aligned time — it started growing exponentially. Now we have a website that reaches millions of people. We're in three stores in Newcastle, Indiana. I have my home store. And we still do vendor events a couple of times a month.

None of that happened while I was playing it safe. All of it happened when I finally chose myself.

My Healing Journey

My healing started as a way of coming back to my authentic self after ten years of being someone I didn't recognize.

It started with crystals. Then oracle cards and tarot. Then my dowsing rods. Then channeling my guides through telepathy. And woven through all of it, from the very beginning — nature. Grounding. Gaia. Source. Synchronicities. Messages in music. Signs the universe kept placing in front of me.

I saw them sometimes back then. Now that I'm open, authentic, and healing — I see them everywhere, all the time.

What started as healing myself turned into: let me see if this can help heal my loved ones. So started the healing i did on my family lineage. Living and non-living family i went thru as many as i could forgiving and releasing and thanking them for shaping my family and me into who we were meant to be for each other.

 I did this with my friends. Then complete strangers. And then something even bigger — healing land, houses, energetic ley lines and grid lines, and Gaia herself.

I've always loved to travel. I've always needed to go somewhere every couple of months. And once I connected the dots — that my traveling was meant to heal — it all made sense. Helping others heal their land and their spaces and themselves was actually part of my soul contract. Because we are all one. When one heals, we all heal.

The Message I Want to Leave You With

You never know where you'll be one month from now. One year from now. Five years from now.

I couldn't have predicted any of this. But I followed the pull. I listened to my body, my guides, my intuition — and everything that felt like a quiet, persistent yes.

So if you take nothing else from this post today, take this:

Pay attention to your intuition. Pay attention to how you feel. Notice what actually calls to you — what wakes you up, what pulls you out of the matrix, what makes you remember why you came here.

That feeling isn't random. That pull isn't a distraction. It's your soul's GPS, and it has never been wrong.

You don't have to wait until you're at the top of the wrong mountain to make a change. You just have to be willing to listen.

With love and light,
