Are you an empath who feels deeply, absorbs energy easily, and sometimes struggles with boundaries and protection? You are not alone—and you are not meant to navigate this journey without support.In this episode, we're diving into the powerful role of angels in an empath's life. You'll discover how the angelic realm offers guidance, healing, and protection, and how you can connect with Archangels Metatron, Gabriel, and Michael to embrace your sensitivity as a gift, strengthen your boundaries, and shield your energy.✨ Plus, I'll be sharing an exciting invitation to my free 3-day masterclass, "A Journey into Angelic Guidance & Protection," where you'll experience direct support from these Archangels through powerful activations and EFT Tapping.If you're ready to feel more grounded, empowered, and divinely supported, this episode is for you!

The Full Moon in Virgo, paired with a powerful Lunar Eclipse, is activating a profound Portal of Change—a cosmic gateway for deep healing, release, and transformation. Eclipses bring destined shifts, guiding us to surrender, trust, and realign with our soul's highest path.In this episode, we connect with Archangel Metatron, the divine guide and protector of empaths and sensitive souls, to receive wisdom and support during this time of transition.Whether you're feeling called to step into a new chapter, let go of old patterns, or embrace clarity and purpose, this energy is here to help you evolve.

Have you ever wondered if being an empath is something that can be diagnosed? In this episode, we explore the common belief that being an empath is caused by childhood trauma or dysfunction. While this is a popular opinion, I share a different perspective—what if being an empath is actually a sacred gift rather than something to be "explained away" or "fixed"?We'll also dive into:✨ Why mainstream psychology doesn't recognize "empath" as a diagnosis—and why that might be a good thing.✨ The truth about trauma—while being an empath doesn't come from trauma, your sensitivity can make you more susceptible to it.✨ A powerful exercise to help you feel into which belief resonates with you most.This episode is all about shifting the narrative around sensitivity, so you can own your empathic gifts with confidence. Tune in and reclaim your power as an embodied empath!Click below and share with me which belief or opinion aligned with you.Angel Blessings,NicoleP.S Interested in seeing the drawing of my spirit guide, head over to my blog.Get in touch!
