Join Sandra for a deep and inspiring conversation with Athena Monet, a spiritual teacher, intuitive guide, and the founder of the Seaside Shaman™. Her journey began in a corporate career in architecture, but a lifetime of unexplained illnesses and sensitivities eventually led her to a profound realization: she is a powerful empath. This understanding became the key to her own healing and set her on a soul-led path to help others. The true catalyst for her awakening was the sudden loss of her mother on Christmas Day, an event that plunged her into deep grief and a mysterious, chronic illness that doctors could not diagnose. At her breaking point, she was guided to a local shaman, where a miraculous healing experience reawakened her dormant, ancestral gifts of clairvoyance and clairsentience. Athena shares how writing a letter to her mother in Spirit was the final step that led to her instantaneous and complete physical healing. Discover the world of a modern-day shaman and how they act as an intermediary, journeying between worlds to bring back wisdom and healing for others. Athena explains how our prayers are like a "911 dispatch" to the spirit world, and how our team of angels, guides, and loved ones respond. She provides practical tools for anyone grieving, including how to ask for and recognize signs from loved ones, and explains that our suffering often serves the sacred purpose of moving us toward our true path. Athena is a mother, writer, teacher and practicing shaman in the quaint beach town of Lewes, Delaware, who enjoys playing, dancing, laughing and living in nature. Athena infuses lightness into her mission of supporting clients through some of life's heaviest and darkest transitions by bringing them closer to complete alignment and a true embodiment of their higher Self. She works through her writing, private client work, group sessions, workshops and teacher training. As a medium and intermediary, Athena works to connect us with many of our helpers from the Spirit realms, angels, guides, masters, and our own Higher Self.
