Today we’d like to introduce you to Sara Whaley.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Sara. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
In 2010, I had an incredible reading with a tarot reader. Prior to this reading, I was a non-believer in “all things psychic”. With Scorpio sun and Aquarius rising placements, not only am I stubborn, I also have a very inquisitive personality and after this reading, I knew that I needed to learn how this woman knew so much about me. It was made transparently clear during this encounter that she was connecting and communicating with parts of me that extended beyond the room and into spiritual realms of information. I was fascinated. As my detective blood started to brew, I made the decision to explore the “esoteric” world and study what had previously been such taboo in my religious upbringing. To the outside world, my journey of self-discovery, looked very strange. Not many understood and many dismissed my findings as I began to make connections that extended beyond this physical existence. Overnight, I was turning into a sounds bowl, crystal-tarot loving “hippie”. But the real change was happening deep inside of me. Internally, I was waking up my intuition and this journey would be far from easy.
That same year my husband and I started our pregnancy journey, I got pregnant immediately, and miscarried almost immediately after that. For those who have been fortunate to not experience such a journey, I will like to explain that a continuous cycle of life and death inside of a woman’s womb feels like the universe is telling you over and over that you are not good enough. This destroyed me – in the inside. On the outside however, I did not allow anyone to see my pain. I didn’t want others to feel uncomfortable and I also didn’t feel like anyone would understand the depths of darkness that I had crawled into.
This pattern continued for six painful years. In the process, I saw friends, family members, co-workers, and even strangers and celebrities on social media have children and move on into their next chapters of life. I however, felt stuck in a confusing parallel of wanting to be a Mother and at the same time learning so much about healing through energy work. By 2014, I had exhausted all my options from a Western Medicine perspective but my stubborn astrology placements would not let me give up. After processing the discouraging words that I could never be a Mom and becoming numb to the continuous roar of the word “infertility” bouncing off my flesh and bones, I decided to start over. I decided to go beyond knowing about crystals and I started to study energy healing and meditation.
For years, I met and had healing sessions with pranic healers, biomagnetic healers, and acupuncturists, I read books, I meditated, I fully immersed myself into whatever I could find that resonated with me. Learning, or what I call “remembering” took me some time to piece together. The big take away for me with regard to my pregnancy journey was that I “lacked” the energetic space to hold life inside of me. It was this understanding that ultimately opened up doors and removed veils of limiting beliefs. And as a result, my quest to become a Mom became so much more meaningful, because in that journey I learned to find myself. I had to release a lot of my old energy to make way for new energy, new life, into my body. On February 12, 2016, I gave birth to my son, Lincoln.
We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
After giving birth, I was diagnosed with post-partum depression. I felt like a freak and a fraud. I had spent years trying to get pregnant and now that I finally had a child in my arms I was depressed and suffering from extreme anxiety. I had done so much healing work on myself only to be left wondering – where did that healing go?
As I continued to slip into another episode of darkness, I could not hide it from the outside world anymore. I needed help. But this time – I needed to handle it differently. I needed to heal for me, for my own self love and not because I wanted something outside of myself to make me happy. In my case, it was a child. I had longed so much for the love of a child thinking that it would make me feel whole and complete. And instead, it pointed out all the healing I still needed to do.
I reached out to my healer’s again and this time I adopted a new mentality – I was going to be honest about my journey to those around me. I was going to honor my feelings and not hide them in order to make those around me comfortable. I was going to speak my truth. I was going to love myself unconditionally. I was going to become my own healer.
Third Eye Metamorphosis – what should we know? What do you guys do best? What sets you apart from the competition?
My intuitive work is centered around empowering people by reminding them that everything they need lives inside of them. I offer spiritual consultations which includes a variety of modalities such tarot readings, channeling, crystal healing, crystal readings, reiki, healing touch, and meditation. I call my personal modality HALO, which stands for Healing Alchemy of Love and Oneness.
I believe my strongest gift is assisting people in accepting different viewpoints by learning to be in observation of their surroundings, rather than being an emotional correspondent to their trauma. There is a lot of power in learning to use emotional intelligence as a way to heal rather than create additional pain. We live in a world where we are conditioned from birth to respond, rather than to observe and listen.
I like to remind people that power is not always strong and loud. Power and strength are also quiet and observant. We are all made up of feminine and masculine energy and in order to be in balance, we must honor all spectrums of who we are.
Has luck played a meaningful role in your life and business?
I believe in divine opportunities which increases when you are in alignment with your highest self. I believe we all have soul missions to accomplish in this lifetime and if we stay grounded and true to our calling, the universe will show up for you in unimaginable ways by creating the most perfect and abundant posibilties. A huge part about being in alignment is believing in yourself and truly trusting that your uniqueness matters in this world. It is also about living in your truth and aspiring to make the world a better place.
