In this powerful coaching session, Christine supports Tessa, a psychic medium navigating the challenges of fully owning her intuitive gifts after leaving a successful engineering career. While her spiritual sensitivity has deepened, she still struggles with confidence, financial consistency, and the fear of stepping fully into her calling.

Christine helps Tessa uncover how early life choices for safety and belonging influenced her path, why money is a sacred energetic exchange, and how to embrace confidence without falling into imposter syndrome. This session is especially resonant for anyone who has felt torn between a “practical” career and their true soul path—or who has struggled with feeling “too sensitive” in a world that doesn’t always honor intuitive gifts.

If you’ve ever wrestled with worthiness, worried about what others think, or hesitated to fully embody your calling, this episode will encourage you to claim your gifts with reverence, confidence, and joy.

Consider / Ask Yourself:

Do you minimize your intuitive or spiritual gifts out of fear of judgment?
Were you rewarded as a child more for achievement than creativity or sensitivity?
Do you toggle between wanting safety (financial or social) and wanting to live your truth?
Is your sensitivity something you see as a liability rather than a blessing?

Key Insights and A-HAs:

True confidence is radical self-acceptance, not arrogance.
Sensitivity is not a liability—it’s a sacred strength when embraced.
Financial abundance can flow through spiritual work when we claim it as valid and worthy.
Belonging and validation from old systems (titles, achievements) can hold us back from owning our deeper callings.
Spiritual gifts don’t have to come with a cost—you don’t need to “pay penance” for being gifted.

How to Deepen the Work:

Reflect on any early decisions you made to “fit in” and how they may still shape your choices.
Reframe your sensitivity as spiritual hygiene, not a burden.
Write and repeat affirmations claiming your gifts as part of your life’s is-ness (e.g., “I make an abundant living through my spiritual gifts”).
Notice when imposter syndrome shows up and remind yourself that reverence and humility are different from self-doubt.
Normalize taking breaks, grounding, and nervous system care without making it a “big deal.”

Upcoming Events:
Christine’s Women’s Retreat is happening October 17–19, 2025. This immersive experience is designed to help you step out of your head, into your body, and reclaim your intuitive power. By the end of the retreat, women report profound clarity, spiritual awakenings, and a deep reconnection to their inner wisdom.
