Hi everyone!
It’s been a while since I posted and, honestly, it was partly because I didn’t know how to tell my story. The more I tried, the further away I drifted until I decided to stop, even as I opened my books up. Instead, I gave myself time and space to recharge. I want to use this platform to be transparent about my process, including the messy parts. I feel refreshed and ready to share more about my journey and vision for my business.
First and foremost, I want to help others. To use my gifts and knowledge as a light worker in service of others.
When I reflect on my path, it’s amazing to see how each obstacle and detour led me to where I needed to be. For example, I planned on going to med school, even as late as my sophomore year in college, but untreated diabetes and ADHD made it hard to even stay awake in class. I switched my major to psychology and laid a foundation for what I do today.
I learned how to understand and address trauma, build up my self-esteem, and develop healthy communication habits. I began meditating to help ground myself. All while struggling with my own spirituality. After graduating with a psych degree, I went back to school and earned my MSM. At work, I was promoted to manager. And yet, I still felt unsure. So when the pandemic hit, I went searching for guidance in the cards.
For the first time in my life, I felt like myself. The deeper I dove in, the stronger I became. I was unlocking something that’s been inside me since childhood. My whole journey — my upbringing, degrees, health, relationships, interests — prepared me for this awakening as Lona. With the help and support of loved ones who allowed me to practice my card reading, I launched my business. It’s challenging, satisfying, tiring, and energizing all at once. I’m still figuring it out and sometimes I stumble, but I know this is what I’m meant to do.
I want to share my energy with those who may need it. To create a space of healing and kindness. To build community, connecting and being creative with others. To teach and learn. To bring light into darkness.
Thank you to everyone that has helped me and I’m so excited for the future ♥️
