A few years ago, I healed myself from a debilitating chronic illness. Now I am committed to helping others reclaim their power, meet goals, and optimize wellness.
About Me
Background
Hello everyone! For those who do not know me personally, I’m Samantha. I’m a Tennessee native and intuitive healer who, after years of pursuing a military career, starting a family, and overcoming chronic illness, is finally pursuing my passion. Though I was born with extrasensory perceptions, I did not fully understand them until my twenties. From being highly empathic (especially with animals), to seeing energy fields and seeing/smelling/feeling spirit, some of my experiences were difficult to cope with and understand. Like many, I learned to disregard or ignore these experiences to properly fit in. Instead, I focused on normal teenager things like sports and college applications. I’d always felt called to serve, so I ultimately decided to join the military after high school. I was fortunate to attend the United States Military Academy and commission as a Military Intelligence Officer in 2017. I served overseas and lived in 4 different states over the course of 5 years.
Getting Sick
While on Active Duty in 2021, I contracted a mysterious illness that no one fully understood. What began as fatigue, eventually became severe muscle weakness, brain fog, tremors, migraines, and chronic pain. I also developed multiple chemical sensitivities, which caused physical reactions to nearly all artificial scents. Within 6 months, I went from running several miles a day to being nearly bedridden. By 2022, I was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and medically retired from the military.
Turning Things Around
As a mom of 2 under 2, I refused to accept this version of my life. I was tired of chasing symptoms and dealing with all the medication side-effects. When I finally realized that traditional medicine could not provide the answers I needed, I began reading every book I could find on toxin overload and healing the fight or flight response. It was at my lowest point that I made this promise to God:
If I can heal myself from this, I will help others to do the same.
After learning about neuroplasticity and committing myself to rewiring my brain, I saved my own life in less than a year.
Sick to Psychic
Though I had pursued healing from a strictly physiological perspective, rather than a spiritual one, I became fascinated by the body’s ability to heal against all odds. I was introduced to Reiki through a friend, and found the principles very similar to the ones that healed me. I knew I wanted to experience it, but I had no idea how much it would change my life. Within 3 months of my first session, I had effectively reopened (and amplified) every extrasensory perception that I had abandoned as a kid. This time, I welcomed it as a natural extension of personal healing, meditation, and mindfulness. It was finally time to remember.
I was fortunate to find an incredible community of healers in Nashville who welcomed me with open arms and encouraged me to fulfill the original promise I made while sick. Today, I am a practicing energy healer and spiritual channel with a deep passion for sharing everything I learned from my own journey. I am also a military veteran, graduate student, and toddler mom committed to destigmatizing psychic abilities. Everyone has them! Yes, even you. I love reminding people that we are spiritual beings having a human experience and that we are intended to use our intuition and extrasensory perceptions. You really can be a “normal” human AND talk to spirit. Turns out there is room for both, and I look forward to helping others bridge these worlds too. So that’s me. I look forward to meeting you!
