We recently connected with Shawna Allard and have shared our conversation below.
Shawna, looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. We’d love to hear about how you went about setting up your own practice and if you have any advice for professionals who might be considering starting their own?
I wasn’t aware that my psychic abilities are unique until the age of nine. When my psychic medium talents became fully activated I shared my insights with friends and family and instead of charging a fee for my psychic reading sessions; I asked for feedback as to the value each person experienced. After a year, it was clear for me that the intuitive information coming through me was accurate and of great help to others. In my mid-thirties, I worked as an accountant and it was extremely challenging juggling single motherhood, a full-time job, and my calling as a psychic medium. Therefore, I had to decide on how to spend my working hours and support my children, so I took a massive leap of faith and quit my job, relying only on my intuition and my other talents. By the end of the first week of my self-employment, my income had doubled!
Over three decades later, I am still working with the Divine Guidance that manifests through me to help others find their path toward a fulfilling life.
I would have done nothing differently, and my advice for young professionals who might consider starting their practice is to follow their intuition, their gut feeling when pursuing their dreams and use their talents to make those dreams come true.
Shawna, 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?
I have been serving as a psychic medium and intuitive channel for over three decades now. I founded the Divine Knowing Institute to help as many people as possible to learn how to develop and use their intuition. As a book author, a spiritual life coach and a public speaker, I am grateful for being able to reach so many people and guide them on their path toward a fulfilling, harmonious life and spiritual awakening.
At the Divine Knowing Institute, I teach classes on different subjects such as awakening and using intuition, awakening the feminine power within, hands-on energy healing, protection techniques and energy awareness.
I offer a wide array of services including: intuitive reading sessions, hands-on energy healing, intuitive life coaching, spiritual counseling, Feng-Shui consultation, and house clearing. I am also a licensed clinical hypnotherapist and a certified past life regressionist. My greatest reward is supporting others to overcome their obstacles and guiding them toward achieving their dreams.
If you could go back, would you choose the same profession, specialty, etc.?
Yes, I would do the same, I would follow my calling and live my dream of working with the Divine Guidance that manifests through me to guide and help others. I love what I do.
Putting training and knowledge aside, what else do you think really matters in terms of succeeding in your field?
Due to my interest in advancing my studies and practice, I have obtained degrees in clinical hypnotherapy, past life regression, Reiki, and Feng Shui. My journey of becoming an accomplished psychic medium, life coach, public speaker, and award-winning author involved, besides study, daily spiritual practice, such as introspection, meditation,and prayer.
