Walking the Edge: My Journey as an Empath Learning to Protect, Heal, and Shine

By The Artful Woman
For as long as I can remember, I’ve sensed things others couldn’t. Energies, presences, whispers from another realm—all mixed into the fabric of my everyday life. It wasn’t until much later that I understood why: I’m an empath. Being an empath means I absorb emotions and energies around me, sometimes to the point where it feels overwhelming. Negative energies, draining people—what I call “energy vampires” or “soul snatchers”—can knock me off balance if I’m not careful. For a long time, this sensitivity felt like a curse. But now, I see it as a gift—a calling. Encounters Beyond the Veil Throughout my life, I’ve had moments that defy logic. One night driving past a cemetery, I saw a pink orb-like form linger around my car. It felt playful and curious, not frightening—a gentle energy reaching out across the veil. But it wasn’t one of my guardian angels. I’ve felt their presence in other ways, and this orb was something else—something that just passed through, maybe just drawn to my l...

Holistic Healing for Chronic Migraines: How Stress, Mindfulness, and Energy Work Can Help

By The Artful Woman

Chronic migraines can be debilitating, affecting every aspect of life. If you've experienced persistent pain on the side of your head and have exhausted medical options with no clear answers, you’re not alone. While modern medicine provides diagnostic tools and medications, many people, including myself, seek holistic solutions that address the root causes beyond physical symptoms. Through my personal journey of overcoming chronic migraines, I’ve discovered the profound connection between stress, emotional energy, and pain—and how mindfulness, meditation, and energy healing can provide lasting relief.

The Link Between Stress and Chronic Migraines: If medical tests have ruled out serious conditions, stress may be a significant underlying factor in your migraines. Stress impacts the nervous system, increasing nerve sensitivity and muscle tension, particularly in the neck, shoulders, and scalp. These physical responses can compress nerves and restrict blood flow, triggering or worsening migraines. Chronic stress also elevates pain perception, making existing headaches feel even more intense.

The Role of Energy and Emotional Blockages: In holistic healing traditions, it’s believed that unresolved emotions and energy imbalances contribute to physical ailments. The head is closely associated with mental overwhelm, overthinking, and emotional pressure. If you're constantly carrying stress, your body might be manifesting it as chronic pain. Practices such as energy healing, breathwork, and meditation help release stored emotional tension, restoring balance and reducing migraine frequency.

Holistic Approaches for Migraine Relief:

  1. Meditation & Mindfulness – Mindfulness helps calm an overactive nervous system, reducing migraine triggers. Meditation promotes relaxation and retrains the brain to respond differently to stress.

  2. Energy Healing & Chakra Balancing – Techniques like Reiki and acupuncture can help remove blockages and restore energetic balance, easing pain and promoting relaxation.

  3. Breathwork & Deep Relaxation – Conscious breathing techniques can improve oxygen flow, reduce muscle tension, and relieve migraine pressure.

  4. Lifestyle Adjustments – Managing triggers like caffeine, sleep deprivation, and poor posture can support overall well-being and lessen the frequency of migraines.

 Transform Your Relationship with Pain You don’t have to suffer in silence or rely solely on medications.

Walking Away to Save Myself: Breaking the Chains of a Toxic Family

By The Artful Woman
  For years, I lived with trauma so deep it tried to silence me—but instead of breaking me, it made me defiant. Everything my mother said to tear me down, I resisted. I became everything she said I couldn’t be. My mother—the person who should have protected me—was instead the source of fear, pain, and rejection. She never offered love, safety, or validation. Instead, I lived in constant anxiety and terror. The beatings were daily. And when she wasn’t hitting me herself, she had trained my middle sister to take over. The abuse was relentless. Inescapable. This was my childhood: a house ruled by violence, fear, and control. What made it even darker was her involvement in witchcraft and black magic. She used it as a weapon—threatening me with curses, wishing me dead, and vowing she would outlive her children just to watch our lives unravel. I grew up under the heavy fear that I had been cursed by the one person who was supposed to nurture me. Her cruelty didn’t stop there. She often ...

Beauty, Brains & Boundaries

By The Artful Woman
    Why Worthy Women Are Done Apologizing for Wanting More As a young girl, I was an international model—traveling the world, young, beautiful, and financially independent. I was naturally drawn to powerful, intelligent, and successful men—not because I needed anything from them, but because I admired ambition. I respected men who could build something for themselves, because I was already building something for myself. But because I was beautiful, I was labeled. Assumed. Dismissed. "Gold digger" that type of judgment made me stay away from the very type of man I was genuinely aligned with. I didn’t want to be misunderstood. So I shrunk my desires and played it safe. And for that, I paid the price. As I got older, that stigma stuck. I found myself in a pattern of relationships with users, losers, and opportunists—men who took and took and gave nothing back. Men who drained my spirit, my finances, my peace. And I let it happen, because somewhere deep down, I still felt like I ...

When Nothing Is Happening, Make Shit Happen!

By The Artful Woman
June was slow. Like, dead quiet slow. No business. No momentum. It felt like everything was stuck. So I did something totally ordinary—but energetically powerful. I had a yard sale. Not just to make money (though that helped). I needed to MOVE energy. To release things. To stir the pot. To show the Universe that I wasn’t just going to sit there waiting. I was going to make shit happen . And guess what? I went from zero bookings to FIVE bookings this month. Coincidence? I don’t think so. Money is energy. Movement is energy. Letting go is an invitation for more. Sometimes we think we have to wait until the “right thing” comes along, or until we “feel ready.” But the truth is, energy responds to action. When you move—even in a small way—you signal the Universe that you’re open, available, and in the flow . So if you’re in a lull, don’t panic. Clean your space. Sell stuff. Shake things up. Move your body. Make a call. Say yes to something random. Create momentum from where...
