Listen to the Episode
When Grief Opens the Spiritual Door
Laura shares how the death of her grandmother at a young age became a defining moment in her spiritual journey.
Like many people who experience significant grief early in life, it sparked deeper questions around spirit, connection, and what happens after we die.
Her first experience attending a spiritualist evening as a teenager left a lasting impression, especially when a medium connected with her grandmother and referenced deeply personal details about her family and creative path.
That moment stayed with Laura for years and became one of the many threads quietly guiding her towards spiritual development.
Counselling, Samaritans and Holding Space for Others
Before fully embracing spiritual work, Laura spent years training and working as a counsellor, including extensive voluntary work with Samaritans.
In this episode, she speaks openly about:
supporting people through emotional crisis
learning communication and listening skills
holding compassionate space for others
balancing empathy with boundaries
the emotional impact of counselling work
Laura explains how counselling became both a career and a foundation for understanding healing on a deeper level.
Spiritual Art, Creativity and Intuitive Expression
One of the most fascinating parts of this conversation is Laura’s lifelong connection with art.
As a teenager, she created a spiritual art project exploring angels, auras, expressionism and energy, unknowingly planting the seeds for the intuitive art readings she now offers today.
Laura reflects on how creativity has repeatedly returned throughout her life, even during periods where she tried to move away from it.
Now, through aura art and intuitive drawings, she combines spirituality and creativity in a way that feels deeply aligned with her path.
Angelic Reiki and Past Life Healing
Laura also shares a powerful experience with Angelic Reiki that transformed her healing journey.
After years of carrying intense emotional energy she couldn’t fully explain, she describes experiencing a profound energetic release during a healing session that completely shifted something she had carried since childhood.
The episode explores:
energetic healing
emotional release
spiritual awakening
past life themes
intuitive healing experiences
reconnecting with yourself through spiritual work
It’s an incredibly honest conversation about how healing can happen in unexpected ways.
Aura Readings, Intuitive Art and Trusting Spirit
More recently, Laura has begun offering intuitive aura art readings, allowing spirit and energy to guide the creative process.
She describes how music, colour, symbolism and intuition naturally weave together during sessions, creating deeply personal artwork for clients.
One of the strongest themes throughout this episode is learning to trust the small nudges from spirit rather than waiting to feel completely ready.
As Laura explains, the more she follows those quiet intuitive hints, the more aligned her life becomes.
