The answer is never quite what people expect. My initial response is less than eloquent, &#8220;I don&#8217;t know. I don&#8217;t know what it&#8217;s like to <em>not<\/em> be psychic.&#8221; <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>I can tell you that I know things that I should have no way of knowing, I see things that other people don&#8217;t, and I hear voices when there is no one else around. I lie about these things on every medical intake form I&#8217;ve ever filled out. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>When I was a kid, I didn&#8217;t realize that I was gifted. I thought everyone was like me. Like most of my life lessons, I learned the hard way that I was different. Fortunately for me, the gift runs in both sides of my family, so I only felt like a semi-freak. I most likely could have saved myself a lot of drama growing up if I had been a little more discerning with the information I received, but I&#8217;ve never been known for keeping my mouth shut!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>When it comes out that I am psychic, (and living in a small town, it always does) the reaction is what I find amusing. Some people think it&#8217;s the coolest thing and want to know more&#8230; others smile, nod, and do their best not to take a step away from me. What never fails are the questions that are about to follow. Everybody wants a reading, has something they just need to know. I&#8217;ve turned more than a few skeptics into believers while in line at a grocery store.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Being a professional psychic is, in my opinion, the toughest but also the best job in the world. I joke around and say, &#8220;I exist, therefore I get paid.&#8221; I wish it were that simple, but like any job, a lot of hard work goes into each day and each call. I pull and exchange a massive amount of energy when I work. I also put a lot of pressure on myself because there is a huge difference between giving readings and giving <em>good<\/em> readings. It is a huge responsibility. There isn&#8217;t a moment that goes by that I am not consciously aware that my words affect someone else&#8217;s life.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>I have met so many incredible people through my work, and since coming to California Psychics, I&#8217;ve been touched by so many more! So, for any of my callers out there who happen to be reading this, I want to thank you. Many of you have thanked me, credited me with helping you, but I don&#8217;t think many of you truly have any idea of what you do for me. <\/p>\n<div style=\"border-top: 1px dotted rgb(201, 217, 217); border-bottom: 1px dotted rgb(201, 217, 217); margin: 10px 0px; padding: 10px 4px; font-weight: bold;\"><!-- ADD COPY BELOW -->Want to tap into the psychic in you?
