Even the Gifted Feel: Navigating the Weight of Human Emotion
As an intuitive, it’s often assumed that I walk through life untouched by the very emotions I help others understand and heal. Yes, I see the bigger picture. I understand energy, soul contracts, karmic patterns, and the deeper reasons behind human behavior. I know how things work on a spiritual level.
But here’s the truth: I’m human too.
Even as someone who is deeply connected to Spirit and Universal Source Energy, I still feel. I still experience. I still process the waves of emotion that come with living in a physical body. There are moments when the emotional tides rise higher than expected, and I, too, feel like I’m being pulled under.
One of the most challenging experiences for me personally has been witnessing the raw selfishness that humans can exhibit. The way some act without thought for others, disconnected from empathy or awareness—it can be jarring. Sometimes, it makes my energy spiral. Not because I don’t understand the deeper reasons behind it, but because I do… and it still hurts.
My Spirit often wonders: Is this a life lesson in disguise? A test of resilience? A mirror for my own boundaries?
Perhaps it’s all of that and more.
Even those of us who guide others, who channel wisdom from higher realms, are still navigating the journey of being human. We aren’t immune to frustration, heartbreak, or moments of soul-deep exhaustion. We simply meet these emotions differently—with awareness, with reflection, and with a willingness to transmute them into something more purposeful.
So yes, I feel. I get driven to the edge by the complexities of emotion. And in that truth, I remind you: we are all here to learn. We are all evolving. And even in moments of disillusionment, there is growth.
Let’s not bypass the rawness of the human experience. Let’s embrace it. Let’s honor it as part of the sacred path.
Ghost Stories Continued…
Ready for a few more ghostly tales?
As many of you know by now, energies find their way to me no matter where I am or what I’m doing. When I first stepped into my gifts, fully embracing them and learning how I could help others with my abilities, I would have ghosts upon ghosts, energies stuck on this earthly plane, coming in and out of my house, needing my attention at all hours of the day. Because I still had to operate as a functioning human, I knew I needed boundaries, I knew I couldn’t live with such constant disruptions. It wasn’t helping anyone if I was overwhelmed every second of the day, you know? I have now created ‘office hours’ so to speak, where there are certain times and places that energies can interact with me.
It’s all a reminder that you have the power and you CAN absolutely tell a spirit to leave if they are disrespecting you in any way.
Sometimes, they still find their way through to me, anyway. Often, I would sit down on the couch and notice as a ghost energy would sit down next to me. One time I was watching a cooking show and then all of the sudden I’m smelling food that was not even in my house. It was quite interesting! The energy beside me was helping me experience new recipes that they themselves had likely once loved.
Another time, a man would peek around the corner at me as I turned on the TV, just watching, wanting my attention. He would disappear every time I would move from my seat so I left him there until one day he didn’t return again.
Another time I was upstairs getting ready and when I came down the stairs to make lunches for my girls, there was a friendly ghost woman already in my kitchen, ready to help out with the task. I was curious as to why she was so eager to help but she just assured me that assisting with these lunches would bring her great satisfaction.
Another morning, not long after, I was doing my hair in the bathroom after my shower and a woman appeared behind me in the mirror. While that could startle anyone, this woman, who boasted a lovely accent from the Bronx, was quite pleasant and began assisting me with my hair. I had to find a way to tell her I was just fine doing it myself…
It can be hard to know how to react when you encounter ghost energy. Now they hardly ever enter my home because I don’t allow it. There came a time when the disruptions became too much. This was after one of my Halloween parties where they would cause quite the ruckus to rile people up. Think loud noises, crashes, lights flickering, things moving etc. - all things I was used to, but some of my friends were definitely not. My friends from my neighbourhood and friends from my inner circle would come to enjoy the occasion with me and some would leave scared. Others were not so scared, knowing what was really going on – but either way I knew I had to implement some boundaries for my own peace of mind. And I really never wanted anyone to feel fearful in my home.
It took some time to get these boundaries firmly in place with spirit. I still had encounters from time to time.
There was one experience that I think about often as it was the first time my family got a glimpse inside what it’s like to be me on the daily. We were watching a movie as a family, with the girls gathered with us along with our dog, Jessie. Now Jessie usually did this thing where she sits patiently with her paw in the air, ready for a treat. As we watched the movie, Jessie ran over to the other side of the room and proceeded to sit for her treat. We all looked over and I could clearly see the ghost standing there right next to our dog. Jessie looked up at the ghost, waiting, and my whole family looked over and witnessed this, knowing there was an energy there, interacting with her. While Jessie soon realized and ran back, avoiding that corner of the room from that day forward, it was the first time my family got to see this in real time, like a glimpse into my world.
There have been many other instances of ghost energy interacting with me but these are the most notable ones as I write to you today. A few takeaways from my experiences are to not let fear get the better of you (these were simply people who once lived and had families etc.), to create boundaries to protect your own peace of mind, and to be intentional on what kinds of energies you do want to interact with in the moments that you do. You can say no thank you to anything negative.
If you have any questions about these kinds of experiences, send me a message or book a session with me. If you have any of your own ghostly tales to share, I’d love to hear them in the comments!
Happy October!

Let Me Tell You a Ghost Story...
I’m starting off my Ghost Stories series by sharing a story I often tell my psychic mentorship clients since there are some key lessons present in this experience. It’s so interesting, isn’t it? How every ghostly experience arrives to teach us more about ourselves and the world we live in?
Let’s dive in!
This story begins on a property I was doing a clearing and protection for. While home clearings can be done remotely in a process where I connect into the energy of the space, in this instance I was drawn to the physical property. Whenever I do anything along these lines, I ensure I am grounded, connected and protected as you just never know what you’ll encounter on a property, I had done all of this before arriving yet the moment I stepped foot on the land–I just felt weird.
It didn’t take me long to realize that there was a young girl trapped there on the property. As I learned her story, I soon uncovered that her family’s belief systems were keeping her there. She had lived over two centuries ago as part of a pioneer group coming to this land, and was a very gifted seer. As you can imagine, living in the time period she did, these kinds of gifts were not openly embraced. In fact, they were dreaded and feared and this poor girl was told she was the work of the devil. Ugh. There I was, taking in this girl’s story, learning that her parents tried to ‘wash her gifts’ out of her. They tried to ‘kill the demon in her’ by making her drink poison, leaving her behind, alone on the land, which all ultimately ended in her demise. Her fear and confusion in her ghost form was overwhelming and I didn’t doubt that the people currently inhabiting this property felt her emotions as well. The poor thing was just so confused, thinking the worst of herself, utterly terrified.
And I was confused, due to the fact that I had every protection in place and this girl still found her way through to me and my energy. When I left the property, she had entered my energy. I was so sick. I won’t get into all the details of the physical affect she had on me, but it wasn’t pretty. Stepping out of the shower, trying to regain my composure, I saw her there, staring back at me through the steamy mirrored glass, gazing right at me with her wide, pleading eyes.
That look has stayed with me long after that moment. As unpleasant of an experience as it was to be energetically attached to this girl, I realized that she needed a safe host to help her leave the land she was stuck on. She needed me, someone she could trust to finally give her the help she so longed for. As I helped her cross over to finally find peace and understanding, I knew I had protected every inch of my body–except my feet when I walked onto that property that day. That is how she attached to me.
This now comes up as a lesson for me and my students. There can be no gaps left exposed when you’re doing this kind of work or when you’re in an area where you feel you need to protect yourself energetically.
While I’m so happy I was able to help this poor sweet girl, freeing her from such sadness and confusion, I am also mindful of my body, doing all I can to never fall ill from energy attachments if it can be avoided.
This story is steeped in tragedy for a girl that was horribly abused, dying before her time, in an era that did not understand her beautiful gifts. But she’s now at peace, the land is free of her pain and I learned a lesson I can pass down to all my sensitives here.
Ghosts can be alluring and exciting but they were once people and deserve the respect, compassion and understanding as you would give anyone else. There is always so much more to their story than we ever first imagine.
Stay tuned for my next instalment in my Ghost Stories series and as always, I’d love to hear your own experiences! Leave them in the comments below.
Happy October,

The Perspective Shift You Need This Week
With so many thoughts and opinions and ideas floating around the online space, it’s hard to know which ones to listen to, which ones to truly integrate into your own life. While I always encourage you to take from my content what resonates with you, and leave the rest – this is one perspective shift I know will benefit you right now.
Read along and see if you agree.
We live in a fast-paced, go-go-go society, where caffeine fuels us and we’re rushing from one task to the next before we’re even fully awake. Sound familiar? If you’re sighing, knowing you’re not loving the hectic energy your lifestyle presents, consider this:
What if relaxing and disconnecting was the priority?
What if taking time for yourself was at the TOP of the to-do list and not shoved to the bottom when there aren’t any more hours left in the day?
What if you created space and time for yourself, planning that right into your day and made it just as important as everything else?
Imagine this. A morning where you could move slowly, intentionally, noticing nature out your window, noticing your own thoughts and feelings, noticing the calm that fills your body instead of the chaos?
Good right? So freaking good. I’m sitting here, gazing out into my backyard, at the fields before me, the sounds of the birds, the peacefulness that surrounds me and I can tell you, it can be that good. To pause and soak in the beauty all around you. Even if your window overlooks a busy city with no nature in sight, there is still beauty in that, there is always time to notice the little things.
Don’t get me wrong, we all have obligations, things we need to get done, places to be, tasks to accomplish. That is life. But maybe you are making the wrong things the priority? Maybe you’re giving too much of your precious time and attention to what truly doesn’t matter as much? This week, make yourself the priority. Create that time for yourself to just BE, to disconnect, to unwind, to breathe deeply. At the end of the day, your health and wellbeing ARE what matters most, because without them, you can’t truly live.
I encourage you to make this perspective shift this week. To make time for slow mornings, mindful reflection, gazing into nature, relaxing and unwinding, sipping your tea in an aura of peacefulness your priority. What do you think? You may just find that all the other areas of your life flow better too.
It’s amazing how it’s all interconnected. By taking care of you FIRST, you can show up better for everything else.
Sending so much love, light and angelic blessings your way,
Annmarie
When the Past Reappears - What Now?
As humans, we’re linear beings. We go through situations or experiences, good or unpleasant, and then the world tugs us along, encouraging us to keep putting one foot in front of the other, moving forward, onto the next. Time pushes us ahead. New things come into our lives. We move forward, forward, forward.
Sometimes, with this continual forward motion, we forget to truly process the past. We forget to look at an experience, to look at it fully, to feel what comes with it, to process the lessons or the impact it had on us. If an experience isn’t properly processed, we may see remnants of it reappear - and usually when we least expect it.
There’s no need to cringe in fear, my friend. It may feel terrible to think about reliving some aspects or experiences from your past, but I assure you, it’s coming back up for your greatest good, to release you from anything that doesn’t serve you, so you can truly move on from it.
I’ve experienced this recently. So have many of my clients. There is a lot that is re-emerging and rising to the surface, for a lot of people right now. Have you experienced this too? It can be confusing. Why now after all this time? What are the chances you would run into that long-lost childhood friend at the grocery store, the one you haven’t seen in decades, the one who doesn’t even live near you? What are the chances??
Well, the odds are not high you would run into them and yet there they are. Right in front of you. Similarly, there was nothing that triggered a memory from an old situation from years ago and yet there you are, dreaming of it, thinking of it, confused by its sudden reappearance in your mind.
So why is the past reappearing so intensely for many of us right now? I wish I had solid, concrete answers for you. But, what I do know is there’s a big release happening. We are being asked to let go of what is holding us back. We are being asked to purge the deep drawers of our beings, like the back of the closet type outfits we know we’ll never wear again as they take up precious space.
There are some things we are not meant to carry with us any longer. It’s time to look at these things, really stare them in the face and then Let. Them. Go. Can you feel the lightness that flows in as you think of that? The burden off your shoulders? Whatever is reappearing for you, sit with it (if you need a professional to explore it with you, book a session with me and I’ll hold the safe space for you) and then decide it’s okay to be done with it.
I can assure you, such beautiful things await you when you’ve cleared out the old and made space for the new.
We’re all evolving, at a faster rate now. And while we could push things to the back of the closet before, we cannot do that now. So embrace the surprise reappearances, tune-in to the messages there and know that you’re always being guided to all the best things.
Love and Light and Angelic Blessings,
Annmarie
What Does it Truly Mean to be Self-Aware?
As humans, we love to label things. We feel comfort when things are placed in categories, in groups, in ways that we can understand. When it comes to being ‘self-aware’, there are guidelines in place that often determine whether we are or we aren’t. While I recognize that many people hold onto these categories to make sense of their world, I’m here to remind you and let you know that you truly don’t need to subscribe to them. You don’t need to put yourself in any box. You can be self-aware without placing yourself in a stereotypical category.
Many people put pressure on themselves to be the most awake version of themselves, thinking they must do x, y and z for it to be so. If they are going to be self-aware, then they must meditate a certain way, say things a certain way, and only associate with groups that are also doing things this way. While I’m all for practices that help you feel connected and balanced, like meditation and journaling, and a supportive community of like-minded others, you also don’t need to keep yourself small and place limitations on your life to create this self-awareness. Do you see the irony?
You’re kind of missing the point when this is how you go about it - thinking you need to fit in when really you need to just be you. Being self-aware is about living your most authentic genuine life, even if that moves you right outside of any category or box. It’s about being aware of what you love to do. Maybe that’s sitting in a field watching the dandelions blow in the breeze. Maybe it’s singing loudly in your kitchen or dancing with your full body and soul.
Self-awareness is not blindly subscribing to spiritual practices because you think that’s what you should be doing.
It’s finding what brings light into your life, what makes you smile, what fills your heart and then doing more of that. It’s being aware of what you love. It’s noticing what feelings these things evoke. That, that right there is self-awareness.
Take a moment and think of your own idea of self-awareness. Have you placed yourself too far into one category or are you allowing yourself to be your most free, eccentric self? Because there is absolute beauty in letting yourself be exactly who you are – as messy and quirky and weird as that may be. Embrace it!
It’s time to let yourself be so happy in your own energy, without the labels, without the need to follow the spiritual mainstream. Living your passions will always lead you where you need to go.
If you want to further explore what your passions may be and create an aligned life around them, book a reading or session with me for tailored guidance to help you in your journey.
Love, Light & Angelic Blessings,
Annmarie
Is Spiritual Mentorship Right for You?
As many of you know, I am a Spiritual Psychic Medium. I use my gifts to provide insight, clarity, messages and the guidance you need to hear in that moment, for your greatest and highest good, for the place you’re at on your path. Most of you have likely had a reading from me, using the knowledge you received to further create a life that fits you best, finding peace and closure from passed over loved ones.
I offer these readings to clients – but did you know I am a spiritual teacher and mentor as well? While readings provide you with the guidance you’re needing that day, spiritual mentorship goes beyond that, helping you integrate tools and apply new practices to your life so you can be as empowered as possible in your day-to-day. Spiritual mentorship focuses in on your specific gifts and habits and guides you towards developing them in healthy ways.
So how do you know if spiritual mentorship is right for you? If readings feel like a good fit for you, that is more than okay. I am happy to provide this kind of guidance in our session together. But if you are feeling the inner nudge to go deeper, to uncover more, to truly tap into who are meant to become, learning all about your gifts and how you interpret spirit and energy – than mentorship is calling you my friend! And I can’t wait to begin with you.
In a spiritual mentorship program with me, you’ll learn about the most relevant topics, concepts that meet you where you’re at, like shielding, past lives, chakras and energy. You’ll practice using tools, creating your own arsenal of resources to help you become completely in-tune with spirit and the spiritual world around you.
There are a few ways you can work with me in a spiritual mentorship capacity. The first one is through my course, Light Wisdom which is a self-study, go at your own pace program. This is a great one for those looking to work when they can, are curious about prevalent topics and enjoy learning in this way. The next options are: Evolve, which is a set of one-on-one sessions, and Align, a 12 week program, and both offer direct access to me as your coach, helping you work through specific patterns coming up for you, helping you create empowered habits and release what isn’t serving you. The next way is my most in-depth mentorship container and that is Reawaken, my 6 month one-on-one program that gives you a complete deep-dive into spiritual learning and development. You’ll come out of this one completely connected in with who you’ve always desired to be.
If you’re feeling the tug within you to discover spiritual mentorship and are ready to uncover who you are called to be, living a life that fits you so well – come join me!
Send me a message to chat about any of my mentorship offerings. I look forward to walking this empowered path together, sharing all my expertise, knowledge and experience with you!
It truly will be life-changing.
Love, Light & Angelic Blessings,

What is Your Relationship with Change?
A client came to me recently and noted that I had not changed in the years since we had last seen each other. Life had taken her in a few directions and she found her way back to me in a wonderful reunion but she couldn’t get over the fact that I had remained the same to her. I, of course, had changed in a few ways over that span of time because change is inevitable, but I agreed in the sense that nothing was drastically different in my life. And it got me thinking – why do we constantly feel the need to change ourselves, to evolve, to keep turning into something else, something new? So that when we see someone who hasn’t, it strikes us as odd.
I am all for growth. I, after all, teach on spiritual growth. I mentor on learning and developing on your path in this lifetime and change does come with that. But I’m talking more about this impulsive need to keep becoming something different as though the thought of staying the same is terrifying. We live in a self-improvement culture, yes. Self-improvement is a good thing. But it is valuable to look at what is driving your need to improve yourself. If it is coming from a desire to release baggage, work through traumas and adopt healthier habits, then I am a heck yes to that. But if it’s driven from an anxious need to chase something you can’t quite reach, it’s time to spend a little more time there and look at that.
On the other hand, some people have harder times accepting changes. They like the comfort and familiarity of something remaining the same. This can be tied to a pattern of not being able to let go or release ties with things that are not meant to be here forever. If this resonates with you, I would invite you to look at this patterning a little closer.
However change feels to you, I know that for me, change is meant to happen in small spurts, not in big dramatic leaps. I’m meant to remain in a more neutral state without swaying too far in different directions so that I can be that foundation and reliable sounding board for my clients. Often times, my clients are experiencing great moments of change, growth, upheaval, and emotional bumps in the road and I can serve them well by being this steady, certain anchor for them. I am the sturdy safe space they come to feel held and heard in.
You’re allowed to change at the rate that feels right for you. I invite you to look past the pressure of our world to keep becoming new and improved versions of you or changing before that feels right. Keep working on yourself, yes, but that doesn’t need to happen at rapid speed. You’re allowed to take your time, to feel into your body, to slowly integrate the lessons of this world.
Take a look at your own relationship with change. It will provide you with a lot of insight around your own behaviours, actions and responses.
And, as always, if you need that sturdy, safe space support as you navigate this, I am just a few clicks away. My readings are open for booking, with times open for mid-September.
Love and light and angelic blessings,

Are You Living the Life You Truly Desire?
Let me ask you a loaded question: Are you living a life you truly desire?
Or are you following a path based on other people’s expectations – a life you think you should lead? It’s a lot to consider. Or maybe it’s quite simple and you know exactly the life you want to be leading, but aren’t. Either way, I was guided to dive into this topic because I see it coming up a lot for my clients and others in my orbit.
The world has a lot to say when it comes to our lives. From a young age, many of us are steered in certain directions, based on pressures from our parents, family members, society, our friend groups. It can feel like a lot, that kind of pressure. It can be so ingrained in us from ancestral patterns and cultural expectations. Often, parents project their own dreams onto their offspring as a way to live through their experience – as misguided as that is, it’s a pattern that is very common.
All of the above can feel hard, especially if you have an internal nudge, prodding from deep within you, telling you you are meant for something else, something very different. You either push it down and try to ignore it (to the point that you finally have to listen) or you follow it but without a roadmap of what the path ahead even looks like. Both can leave you feeling a little lost.
Which is why I’m here to remind you:
The life you truly desire is not always an easy route, but let me tell you, it is so very worth it for the feeling of deep fulfillment and joy it offers.
I’m writing this today to stress this point: It’s time to be the leader you were meant to be and not the follower that leaves you feeling lost and empty. Pursue your dreams. Go after them, anyway, despite all the reasons the world tries to stop you. Because even if you go off the beaten path and end up falling right on your face, those mistakes, those hurdles, those challenges that arise are there for your greatest good, to help you grow and evolve as a spiritual being. Bumps and bruises along the way are all part of it and nothing to fear. This kind of journey is worth every challenge because you have what it takes to surpass them.
If you haven’t taken the time to sit with all of this, to uncover what it is that truly lights you up and ignites that passion deep within you – this is your sign to do just that. Too many people blindly stumble along a life that someone else chose for them, wondering why things feel misaligned, wondering why they can’t seem to get a true grip on happiness. It truly doesn’t matter what you do with your life, as long as you actively choose a path that brings you peace and fulfillment. No one else gets a say in what makes YOU happy. Take your power back and your freedom and say YES to what was truly meant for you!
If you need guidance in uncovering what it is you do LOVE for your life, book a reading or session with me and we’ll bring forth clarity around these important questions.
Love, light and angelic blessings,
Annmarie
