MY STORY
Born in England to an Indonesian mother and an British/Irish father I was always daydreaming. It was completely normal for me to be in two worlds at the same time and this awareness of my spiritual nature led me to search for anything and everything that would further connect me to the unseen. I was always buying crystals, creating little rituals and using tarot cards, much to the dismay of my parents. Brought up Catholic this was not accepted and it soon became my little secret.
It was only when I was 17 and in boarding school in Melbourne that I really started to use my gifts. What started out as a game ended with me connecting with spirits on a regular basis and holding spirit circles as I called them. I was hooked and would skip class to connect to the other side. Being a medium came so naturally to me, as I connected to the dead, angelic beings and universal love direct from source.
However it was only years later when I was 35 and living in Bali that I reconnected to my gifts as my time in Australia had long been forgotten and I had entered a “normal” existence. I had started meditating regularly and I started to feel surges of energy moving from my toes to my head.
Desperate to understand what was going on I went to a “Managing The Energetic Body Workshop” run by a local yoga center. Unfortunately the workshop didn’t give me the answers I was looking for but I decided to approach the practitioner’s wife who was a psychic and energy healer. I asked her what was going on with me and she looked at me and simply told me I was a medium. I was shocked which is funny now looking back as I had been doing it effortlessly 18 years ago. But it didn’t fit in with the life I had created for myself. I was a makeup artist that had a bridal hair and make up business. Yes I dabbled in the esoteric topics but a medium? This felt like a far stretch and to be honest I didn’t really want to speak to dead people.
I started to look at all the different ways I could strengthen and understand my abilities and even took a course in Reiki but I realized I already knew how to channel energy through my hands. I felt frustrated that I wasn’t getting anywhere.
I then attended an Akashic records circle run by my now wonderful friend Daniela Gills. As I watched her pray and connect to the records I thought, this is it, this is what I am meant to do. I decided to train with her and on my last day of training I opened up my own channel and was hit by the most intense energy that blasted through my crown chakra. I literally thought I must be glowing as I felt these volts of electricity surge through my body. It continued most of the day and I had no idea what happened only that I was changed. I knew that without a doubt God existed, that I would follow a spiritual path and that I would be guided. I believe now that more of my soul joined me that day, to strengthen my channel and my ability to hold a higher frequency.
I would like to say from that day onwards I flowed effortlessly into my new path but alas no. I still took my time to accept this timeline. My ability to connect to energies and translate them strenghtened over time and I could connect to the dead, angels, guides, the Akashic records, God, basically any energy I chose. I could translate the energy of water, wind, fire, all I had to do was calm the mind and drop into my channel. However I was still hiding from the world and it was revealed to me that I was afraid of my power. I had abused it in many lifetimes and with great power comes great responsibility.
I would not let myself be seen until I was anchored in humility and knew what was my truth and the word of God; that I would not be swayed easily and be anchored deeply in my heart. I needed to understand that I was here on earth to open hearts and help on others reclaim their gifts.
And here I am today. Ready to do this, just as I know you are too.
