Tell us about your business.
I am the owner-operator of Sacred Whispers. I offer private mediumship and psychic readings, as well as Reiki sessions. I offer group reading events and classes. I teach locally and online. I also offer private mentoring both in person and virtually. I’ll be adding online classes this coming summer. Having been a teacher for the Westfield Public Schools, I love helping people discover and enhance their natural psychic abilities while helping to create a community of like-minded individuals. As a medium, I really love being one small part of beautiful family reunions! My services are open for everyone!
What one thing have you learned as a small business owner that has served you well over the years?
Word of mouth referrals are so important to continue to grow one’s audience. Because my work isn’t considered typical in some circles, those referrals mean even more! I’ve been blessed that satisfied clients have shared their experiences with me. In the beginning, this work was more of a hobby, then it became part-time, and now it’s almost full-time. Along the way, I also learned the importance of community. I have been privileged to have the Women Business Owners Alliance to support me and my business
What do you do for fun/relaxation?
I run, and I walk in nature regularly. I love to chat with friends! I’m starting a garden this year. Binge-watching shows is great some days, too. I love a good massage or floating in a salt water tank. I also co-host a podcast called Wicked Spiritual with two girlfriends and we belly laugh through every recording session.
What is the number one business goal you plan to accomplish over the next year?
I plan to grow the business so that I can leave the “day job” behind and focus solely on this, my soul’s work. While I enjoy having two separate and distinct work worlds, my goal is to be able to do the “soul work” exclusively. It is truly what makes my soul sing! Isn’t that what life is all about?
