Is communicating with animals a special gift?
I believe all of us can communicate intuitively with animals.
I believe we can create a deeper, more respectful understanding between ourselves and our animal companions.
They communicate to us every day. We simply need to learn how to listen.
I believe this because I communicated with animals for over twenty years, and I have taught people from around the world ways to communicate with their animals. I have been a bridge who connects humans and their animal companions by interpreting and relaying messages about each animal’s feelings, thoughts, and wishes and by teaching others to do the same.
The truth is, my ability isn’t all that unique. I have held a variety of live events here and abroad to help others develop their intuitive skills and to manage their personal energy fields.
How did you learn this?
I figured out early on that I could understand the messages animals communicate.
As a child, animals were my confidants, my best friends. I have never been without an animal companion in my life. Yet, in spite of my kinship with animals, as an adult I pushed my ability deep into myself so I could pursue more “adult” matters.
In 1998, I rediscovered my ability to communicate with the animals during a workshop with Professional Animal Communicator, Asia Voight. She helped me honor my abilities and eventually, invited me to help her with clients.
I was surprised at first because I had never imagined I would do this work professionally. Eventually, I realized animal communication was part of my soul’s path. I took a daring leap and left a career in business to work for the animals full-time. It was time to get reacquainted with a part of myself I had almost forgotten.
With a degree in education and a life-long passion for teaching, it was only natural that I began teaching others how to tap into their own abilities to form deeper, more meaningful bonds with their animals and with themselves.
What does communicating with animals have to do with being a Highly Sensitive Empath or experiencing childhood trauma?
I realized that my childhood experiences of trauma acted as a catalyst to my ability to communicate with animals and other spirits. I learned at a very early age how to sense energy which added to my energetic sensitivities and my intuitive abilities.
I became aware that many intuitively gifted and energetically sensitive people had also experienced childhood trauma. As I embraced my own sensitivity, I developed techniques to manage my energy field, which resulted in much more ease and grace in my life.
Today, I share these techniques with other highly sensitive people through my book: The Fractured Phoenix, Gifts From a Broken Childhood (available through Amazon and Barnes and Noble) and live events.
How do I know if I am a highly sensitive empath or if I am energetically sensitive?
If you answer yes to most of these questions, you are likely a Highly Sensitive Empath.
Do you ever feel overwhelmed by emotions that seem to come out of nowhere?
Do you feel “drained” after being with certain people?
Do you find being in large crowds difficult?
Do you “feel” others physical or emotional pain?
Are you sensitive to loud noise?
