We recently connected with Sara Wong and have shared our conversation below.

Sara , thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. It’s always helpful to hear about times when someone’s had to take a risk – how did they think through the decision, why did they take the risk, and what ended up happening. We’d love to hear about a risk you’ve taken.

I left my 15-year career to open a store that was all about supporting people in understanding their energy and offering tools/services to support their energy needs. When the pandemic started, the store had been open for almost 2 years, and to avoid rent issues, we decided to move out. Transitioning online led to a drop in revenue, as our income heavily relied on in-person services and events which were no longer possible. I had to make changes, like trying out classes and creating new products. Initially, these changes worked, but over time I felt lost and unnoticed in the online world. The results weren’t the same, and I was working all the time.

I had to rethink my business, a process I’m still undergoing. I explored various options like subscriptions, retreats, online classes, services, and products. I had to acknowledge that everything had changed – even I had become a mother during this time. Seeking stability and structure, I decided to return to my previous line of work, even though it meant risking the business I had built over 5 years. This step was necessary for me.

Once settled into my new job, I discovered that I could still share my gifts and energy-healing skills, even in a business environment. I offered a sound bath experience for the employees, which was wonderful. I know my business will continue evolving, and now I can spend time with my daughter and figure out what’s next for me, all while serving in areas I’m passionate about. Taking risks truly gave me back my freedom in more ways than I could have imagined.

Sara , before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?

For 12 years I have been learning all about energy and how the universe works.. I became a reiki master and have support thousands of people with their personal spiritual journey and energy healing. I have cultivated a deep relationship with my intuition and gifts. In this I have dedicated my practice to teaching other to do the same. I used to do readings and healings, while I will probably always do this, my main focus is really creating tools and resources so everyone can access their own gifts.

We often hear about learning lessons – but just as important is unlearning lessons. Have you ever had to unlearn a lesson?

When I started my spiritual journey I thought it was just for me. I didn’t think anyone else would trust me because who was I to have these gifts and support others. I didn’t have my PHD and I am not a doctor. But yet I felt called to explore this side. My friends mostly didn’t really understand my choices either. They felt I was different and I was. I had to let go of what others thought and honor my call. Because of this i have witnessed miracles, in-imaginable healing experiences, and a community I could have never met if I didn’t allow myself to follow my hearts calling.

Training and knowledge matter of course, but beyond that what do you think matters most in terms of succeeding in your field?

For anyone who lives in the present you will understand this best, everything is a choice. If you don’t like your job or home environment, change is required. Which doesn’t always mean you need to make dramatic changes but it will require a new approach which could take some time to figure out. Nothing needs to happen over night. The more you can learn to enjoy the unknown the more the journey becomes a soul legacy. There really is not end point. We can decide to change our life each day we are alive.
