ABOUT

I think that my life has been what most would deem as "normal". I grew up with a loving family on a farm in a small town rural area. I did well in school, graduated high school, moved into the city and was married less than a year later to my high school sweetheart. We have endured all of the ups and downs, joys and sorrows and life challenges and victories that most families do. We have two wonderful children who are grown and have moved away from home. Sounds pretty normal!​

I have always been a quiet and shy person. I have always felt nervous and awkward in crowds or with people I don’t know well. I became quite good at putting on a show to make it seem that I was comfortable, when inside I was screaming and just wanted to escape and run away. Most times I even felt awkward and alone at family functions. I never knew why, but I would always sink into the background and only speak when asked something. I just listened and felt the feelings that everyone else was feeling. I knew that somehow I was different, but what I didn’t know, was that my "different" was being aware and being an empath.

​Empaths automatically sense any feelings (stress, tenseness, sadness, anger, happiness, frustration, etc.) that others around them are having. I personally, feel them very intensely. It is not just me knowing that someone is having a bad day; it’s me, feeling their bad day alongside them. This intense amount of feeling others' emotions contributed to and resulted in a period of much anxiety and unrest for me, several years ago. I went to counselling to help myself work through it, and continue to use techniques that I learned there whenever I need them even today. 

I am a hidden lake. Many may not know this about me, but I am extremely sensitive and cry during TV commercials, telethons, and any TV show or movie where even a tiny bit of emotional pain or joy shows itself. I cry when the book I read is happy or sad. I cry when heartfelt songs play on the radio or, when someone is truly singing from their heart, first I get the shivers and then the tears begin. Hidden lake for sure!!  If I see someone get hit, fall or experience some sort of accident, I feel the jolt of impact in my own body. I feel everyone’s pain so much that when I sense it, my stomach will churn and my breathing will change. I have lived with this “awareness” for so long that I didn’t know that these weren’t my own feelings, but that they belonged to others. I was always left to wonder what I was worrying about, yet never managed to figure it out. This often resulted in my sitting away from others or being out of the conversations because I was trying to deal with the rolling storms that were happening inside of me, caused by my empathy for others. I knew and felt people misinterpreting this distance I kept. 

Many people who are empaths have this same story, where they feel as though they don’t belong and that they feel everything around them. Many empaths are opening up to awareness even though they are unaware of what is going on. Many never realize that there is something going on and that the feelings they experience are not their own. Many of these people have severe anxiety and use medication to control their nerves and feelings because they are so overcome with the stresses of these feelings, that they can’t function in the world anymore. It makes them feel worse when they are in the outside world where everyone else is experiencing all of the emotions that the empath will eventually take on. 

And so life begins to change and we get older. Children grow and move away. I have more time alone for thinking and am able to pay more attention to things I never paid attention to before. I began my journey to awareness by beginning to open the door (by just a crack!) – even though I didn’t know it! My eyes were opened when a friend posted on social media about an energy healing modality that she was interested in. Being the curious person that I am, I looked it up online and found information on this different way of thinking and living.  The new ideas intrigued me as I knew – I ABSOLUTELY KNEW that there had to be “something more” to life, more than what I had already experienced and accomplished. I did my due diligence and researched as much as possible to find out what the deal was on this new way of thinking. As with anything online, I found the negative comments about it, but the positive comments overtook them by far. This was “something more” for me! I found a practitioner and had a session not expecting a whole lot to happen. It was amazing, and the practitioner unknowingly opened doors for me that I had no idea were even there. This was the beginning of my journey, with the excitement and newness of my true and authentic self, being Created on the Horizon! 

I began researching and reading books and taking classes! I learned as much as I could! I met amazing people as teachers and other students, each one a catalyst for me on this journey!  My search for more kept propelling me forward!  There were times that I felt that I was moving in reverse, as though I was losing ground on my journey, only to have a lesson put forth for me to learn before I could proceed. I still have much to learn, but the journey is wonderful and is often the lesson! I know that there will always be more things coming for me to continue with my own learning and growth.

The future waiting before me is a Divine Path with bumps and potholes and beautiful horizons and I will travel this path until completion. Learning and studying will be with me forever as learning is the key to making life what you want it to be. I will guide and mentor others who are working their way along their own Divine Path and will always be grateful for any knowledge that I gain from clients, as while I am helping them, they are also helping me on my path. 

You may wonder why I have laid out my story like this for the world, but you see, I am finished hiding. I used to be the shy person in the corner by myself. My former self was not being who I wanted to be and not doing what I truly wanted to do. I have realized that I am worthy of being ME, and worthy of being comfortable in this big beautiful world BEING me. I can only begin to serve, heal and guide others if I am being my own TRUE and AUTHENTIC self.

So here I am…looking forward to many more days of standing up and Creating New Horizons!

Peace and Love!  ♥ P.
