As a child, I was able to see ghosts and spirits, energies, auras, and even feel other people’s thoughts and emotions. I had a deep understanding of how vibrational frequencies affected me and others. But being raised in a Catholic family, navigating these abilities was difficult.

The kids at school didn’t help. They made fun of me when I told them I was talking to things they couldn’t see. I was told that I was lying about what I was seeing to get attention – I still hear this from people, even to this day.
It wasn’t easy to be a young person with these poorly understood abilities. I was too sensitive to everyone’s energy and was unable to go out to restaurants and other crowded environments.

Confusion from my Catholic upbringing and feeling out of place in this world combined to create a deep confusion and restlessness.

So at the age of 10, I shut off my abilities. I realized that all the popular kids did sports to gain friends, so I followed suit. Take about going from a very non-physical to a very physical reality. I started to make friends and fit in. I finally felt like I belonged.
