We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Zamira Soza a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Zamira , thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Can you open up about a risk you’ve taken – what it was like taking that risk, why you took the risk and how it turned out?
Everyday I’m met with my 17 year old self. Shaken, scared, angry, and insecure. She was created that way by her environment after being physically, emotionally, and verbally abused up until her 18th birthday. On August 11th, she decided to gift herself freedom simply because there wasn’t another choice. She left with nothing but a bag of dirty clothes and went to live with her best friend’s family until she got herself into college shortly after. No ID, no spare change, no bank account, no car, not signed up for college. Just dirty clothes and an ssn, because yes, it was that bad. This was the first risk and leap of faith I ever took, but it wouldn’t be the last.
With my newfound freedom came unpacking all the shit from my teens. It wasn’t easy managing my CPTSD, but I found myself becoming more connected with myself more than I ever was after getting into a healing journey and getting into therapy. Eventually I got back on my bullshit. Witch shit.
Even as a single digit old, I was using divination with my mother in the form of using pencils as rods, drawn up ouija boards, and tarot. Astrology, candle spells, gris gris bags, voodoo dolls, pendulums, the paranormal, and manifestation was my obsession. So much so that I felt the only support I had was from talking to my guides outside jumping up at the moon to take me back because this shit sucked.
Fast forward to 2024, I got a degree, a job, the most supportive + loving partner anyone could ever ask for, and some mentorships/courses under my belt to develop my psychic abilities. Heyurpsychic has been open since 2022 and for a long time I was struggling with building a following and finding ways to become a full-time psychic even though I knew I was good.
June of 2024, came my second huge risk. I quit my job not really sure what I was going to do, but I knew that my soul was reaching out to this work as a psychic intuitive even though I found only small successes up until that point.
The day after my 26th birthday, I started a mentorship with Linda O’neal at Austin Tarot Therapy to help get my business off the ground. Since then, I’ve been successfully offering my services at markets all around Austin, TX looking forward to help people find the way to their highest timelines and facilitate their greatness utilizing my abilities and connection with my spirit team.
17 year old me was ballsy, courageous, and wasn’t afraid to trust in her desires. It’s not easy and some people will never see your vision and that’s okay. What matters is that we follow our instincts of what’s right for us. Sometimes this is taking risks and a leap of faith into God’s arms. At this moment, he paves you the way.
Zamira , 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?
Started off as a paranormal and occult junkie as a child! As someone who is in love with constant learning, I decided to jump into this field as a challenge. I initially thought I was doomed to be in corporate, but instead I wanted to show myself I could do “crazy impossible” things and that I could live a life where I was doing things I enjoy.
Now, I’m a clairvoyant psychic intuitive who emphasizes psychic protection to ensure I’m talking to spirits that want the highest good for everyone I’m giving a reading to. I provide readings on www.heyurpsychic.com, offer bookings for parties/events, and give readings at markets in Austin, TX.
It’s in my personal beliefs that when we heal ourselves individually, the world itself begins to heal itself as we are a microcosm in a macrocosm. Part of the healing journey is finding our way back to ourselves and our desires–being unafraid to act on them in our lives. My readings allow you to get in contact with divine-led clarity and facilitate your greatness!
I provide collective readings, juicy information, and updates on my socials. My podcast, “dusk” helps psychics and witches learn more about about their journey, providing in-depth content on how they can heal, protect, and evolve themselves + their psychic abilities (along with some taboo/8th house topics that a lot of the spiritual community doesn’t speak about).
Any resources you can share with us that might be helpful to other creatives?
Any creative, artist, or unconventional person who wants to kick-start their business, go on instagram and apply to markets to vend at!! If I knew I could do this sooner I would. The most important thing you can do is to find other people who are like you to help you prepare for this next stage of you. Go find them!
Find a way to do your passion in real life, not just showcasing it virtually.
Do you think there is something that non-creatives might struggle to understand about your journey as a creative? Maybe you can shed some light?
I think non-creatives look down on creatives who don’t give up on their passions even when it’s not turning out. They tend to look at things from a transactional perspective. “If you don’t get something out of it, then why do it?”. Creatives can’t live that way.
They do what they do whether or not it’s “successful” because if not they miss out on truly living their life. Without their passions, they may feel drained or even depressed. From a psychic’s perspective, the reason for this is because when we do what we love and are aligned in our life, we are channeling energy from divine. This can power can help heal us, make us happier, and more energetic. Sometimes an unconventional path is the best path to take for some people, even if that means surrendering stability and security for a while.
