Black Sheep, Misfits, and Magic-Makers
You’re in the right place!
Ever felt like you don’t quite belong?
Like you see the world differently than those around you?
Being the black sheep isn’t a curse; it’s a calling. A sign that you’re here to break patterns, forge your own path, and reclaim the magic that’s always been yours.
I see you. I’ve been where you are. And I’m here to help you step fully into your power, trust your intuition, and create a life that feels like home.
If I could beam myself back to my younger self and tell them:
“Guess what! You’re going to become a professional witch—giving readings, connecting with the beyond, and playing with cards.”
I’m not sure I would have believed it.
When I was growing up, I was the tallest kid in class, with glasses and braces earlier than everybody else. I always felt ugly and different.
I spent my 20s and 30s thinking there was something absolutely wrong with me. I had a terrible self-image and always felt like I should stay invisible.
I used to feel like I was running on autopilot. Work, home, sleep, repeat. No options, no external life, no real interests, nothing to make me excited. I felt insecure, anxious, and sad. I kept thinking, “Is this all there is? Is this what I’ll be for the rest of my life?” I was afraid of the future, afraid to do new things, and scared of meeting new people. When I did get into relationships with men, they always critiqued me negatively and made me feel less than.
I had forgotten who I was but I didn’t realize that yet.
I was the cliche of always being the bridesmaid, never the bride.
I wore a lot of really ugly dresses!
I thought, I’m going to be single with my cat, and I’m going to be one of those people who dies, and nobody will know until my smell drifts into the hallway!
I eventually got married at 38, after spending decades believing it wasn’t in the cards for me.
It took me reaching my 40s to even begin to realize I had more control over the direction of my life than I was giving myself credit for.
Everything started to shift after experiencing my first Reiki session as a client.
I laid down on the table feeling pretty skeptical, stressed and in a bad mood and walked out of absolutely astounded by the results!
My brain felt like it was spinning out of control before my session, but as this woman was working on me, I could feel my brain slowing down slower and slower and slower until all I was aware of was just being present in the moment, with the woman moving around me.
My brain was calmer than I’ve ever been in my entire life.
And after the session, I felt awesome for the rest of the day. The kind of stuff that would have ordinarily really pissed me off for the rest of the day didn’t bother me.
So I thought, okay, I need to learn how to do this!
I ended up becoming a Certified Reiki Master.
It was almost like my life flipped right way up again.
Not only did I get back in touch with my witchy side, but I was also baking more and learning how to drive a boat. I was doing the things I always wanted to do, which took me outside my comfort zone and helped me remember who I was deep down again.
Over time, my mediumship gifts emerged.
It started when my husband and I were adopting a cat whose owner had recently died. We met her neighbor at the house, who only referred to her as “the owner,” never saying her name.
While trying to wrangle the cat in the bedroom, I felt bad for invading her space and wondered what her name was. Instantly, a woman’s voice in my head said, “Janice.” I brushed it off as a coincidence as my boss at the time was named Janet. As we were leaving, I spotted a framed certificate on the shelf. It had her name on it. Janice.
The moment we got to the parking lot, I turned to my husband and said, “I have to tell you what just happened!” He was just as stunned. We replayed the conversation, searching for any moment the neighbour might have said her name. She hadn’t. Janice had introduced herself. If it hadn’t happened to me, I wouldn’t have believed it.
Fast-forward to today and I finally feel like me.
Without needing to change myself, pretend I’m someone I’m not, or strive for please others at the expense of my own authenticity.
But I wish it hadn’t taken me so long to get there and I don’t think it has to for you. I wish I’d had someone to turn to for a different perspective. Someone in my corner who could have offered an unconventional, magical way of seeing the world and myself.
I wish I’d had a witchy aunt who would have sat me down with a cup of tea and told me:
“You’re going to be okay. The people and experiences that made you feel like shit were never a reflection of your worth. It wasn’t you—it was them.”
My energy had been begging me to see that all along, and I know YOURS is too.
I see it as a great privilege to support people just like you on your journey of figuring yourself out and remembering who you really are.
The credibility that guides my craft.

Little known truths about me
I never got a driver’s license.
I can drive a boat, but not a car. I’m from New York City where there’s public transportation everywhere, so I never felt the need to get a license.
I love to bake.
Cats bring me joy.
I used to be a historian.
My degrees are in history, and for about 10 years I worked as a researcher and writer for historical museum exhibitions. Now I build family trees for fun!
