How My Intuitive Consulting Business Got Started!
I’m often asked how I got started in my business. It’s an interesting story involving intuition and Divine synchronicity! Here’s the abbreviated version:
In 1987, I was the Operations Manager of a small software company. I hated being there and dreamed of developing my own business. I had taken classes on developing psychic abilities and found I had a great deal of natural talent in this area. My main concern was “How do I develop a psychic reading business?!” I quipped that if God posted a “Psychic Reader Wanted” ad in the Boston Sunday Globe employment section, I’d apply. Barring that, I wasn’t sure where to begin. I decided to practice my newfound consciousness tools of affirming, visualizing and asking the Universe for help.
About a month into this manifesting process, a friend, who had been sick for a long time, died. As I walked into the room for his funeral service I felt a strong intuitive inclination to sit next to a woman I hadn’t met before. This was followed by what I can only describe as an “inner voice” saying, “SIT THERE!” I briefly questioned my reasons for sitting in the seat being indicated, as there were quite a few people in the room that I both knew and preferred to sit next to for emotional support.
At the end of the service the woman and I started talking and she asked me what I did for a living. Have you ever had one of those times when your brain doesn’t engage with your mouth? Despite the fact that in my current job I was an Operations Manager, I answered, “I’m a psychic.” I was immediately stricken with alarm. “Why had I answered this way?” “What would she think?!” Yes, I did readings for a few friends and friends of friends. But I never defined my career that way! I felt flustered by my answer. To my surprise she was quite open and receptive. She then told me that she was a writer for the Boston Globe and would love to have a reading so she could write about it in her column.
To make a long story short — she wrote the article and over the next several months about 400 people called me to schedule an appointment. Here is the moral of the story from my perspective: The Universe had managed to create a full-time psychic reading business virtually overnight. There was no way that I could have created that if I had taken a step-by-step logical approach. Over the past fifteen years I have seen this process occur over and over again in my life and the lives of my clients. I believe there is a Divine Intelligence that works with each and every one of you to help create a life you love. Do you agree?



Lynn,
I always love hearing or reading this story of yours. It always gives me hope for all of us to embrace who we are even before we have completely defined it ourselves. That unwavering (or scary) belief and a little intuitive hit or two can do wonders.
You have helped make me a believer in my own intuitive skills. And if I ever hear the words “sit there” you know I will be sitting right down.

Lynn,
I love this story. Over the years I have wanted to do the same thing, and each passing year that I do not embrace who I am, it becomes more painful on many levels. Over the last several months, I have been prompted to embrace my gifts once and for all and “just do it.” Your story may just have given me the prompting I needed.
