We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Nijayah Jones a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Alright, Nijayah thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. We’d love to hear the backstory behind a risk you’ve taken – whether big or small, walk us through what it was like and how it ultimately turned out.
Honestly I feel all my life I had to take risks but I will say leaving the medical field I was a home health aide /caregiver for over 11 years . I loved helping my clients which consist of the elder or disabled but it lack progress and finical staibilty, I remember within the 8 year mark I was becoming drained , unhappy I knew it was my soul telling me it was time to move on ,fast foward into the summer of 2020 right before I even knew the pandemic will hit I was losing clients and it was putting a damper on my pockets . I remember sitting on the edge of the bed praying and saying I can’t do this I have to leave of course fear creeped in fear to me is a illusion state to keep you stuck with being uncomfortable. So immediately I started thinking of all the worst case scenarios thinking about kids , my bills but I decide to walk away , I didn’t renew my license. I was scared as heck but something magically happened my spiritual awakening (I always had spiritual gifts but never tapped into them fully ) I found myself being led to start my platforms dive into tarot, Oracle readings & spiritual guidance too help others .Even fast forwarding too now I may still face some challenges along the way but will I do it again YES IN A HEARTBEAT.
Nijayah, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
I’m 39 years of age and single mom of two I like to call myself a empath , I feel everything and have a open mind and heart to help others , I feel this is connected to all the pain & trauma I endure in my lifetime and always feeling alone I don’t want others too feel this way I want others to find their voice & power . The name I go by is Empathdivine I like to call myself divine in my own healing journey self love is the key above everything else . I’m deeply rooted into spirituality honestly I always have gifts of channeling without using any divination when helping others but as I got older all that was put on hold to further follow my own path of healing . I started my spiritual awakening and immediately I was guided to help others all while I was healing myself , I started with Oracle card readings on my Instagram page then my spiritual team lead me to YouTube which honestly I was scared as heck asking myself what if no one’s pay attention ? Being nervous to show my face or use my voice but I knew deep down inside I always had this rage of fire in my soul that was here on earth to uplift others . I also have a platform on Tiktok we’re I uplift others . My services include tarot sessions , Oracle sessions working with helping others with their money , career , finances , love , even self love and empowerment. I always dive into deeper spiritual messages from the clients own soul & spiritual team that’s trying to help them . I also possess certificates in life coaching , spiritual coaching , self love, rewriting the higher subconscious state of mind (which btw I love to the core ) I will also say I’m a motivational coach . What makes me happy is seeing my clients prosper , seeing my clients find their voice and step in their power , seeing my clients find their fears , face their fears and challenge themselves. My one channel on YouTube is called “You Matter “ and that’s my slogan about any client I’m helping privately or even with my videos . My main mission is to learn and grow , continue to heal and Continue to be of service and help of those who truly need it and feel guided towards me . I also love to give advice on mental subconscious state and how to rewrite it , manifesting tips honestly I’m learning and growing and introducing new ideas and concepts every step of the way
We’d love to hear a story of resilience from your journey.
No matter my trials and tribulations I’m facing I always put “temporary “ in front of them I get knocked down , discouraged but I won’t give up , I also learned too work through my feelings and not suppress them this is something I also try my best to stress with others . Being honest I’m not exactly we’re I want too be but at the same time I’m we’re I need to be , having patience and faith gets hard but I know it’s the right way and under all my challenges my blessings are their . Even at the moment I will say I’m not a official business owner but I’m a business owner I been putting in the work staying consistent and being open to change .
Learning and unlearning are both critical parts of growth – can you share a story of a time when you had to unlearn a lesson?
I will say when I became awakened I had to face my traumas one of them was feeling unloved going through abuse from my mom and not feeling loved by my father all while helping to raise my brothers and sister . My mom passed away when I was 11 for years I held pain ,anger but I still loved her I had to learn to forgive in order to live also being on this journey I learned my mom wasn’t in a happy place herself . Even with my father which is still alive I learned to forgive but protect my peace and that’s okay . I also had to unlearn that trauma was not my fault even being sexually assaulted a few times by someone I thought was a friend was not my fault , loving myself & knowing my worth empowers me too keep going , keep pushing and keep living
