Hi, I’m Karina — an intuitive oracle card reader — and I wanted to take a moment to share a little bit about how I got started on this path, where I am now, and where I hope to go.
The Spark That Started It All
My journey with spirituality began when I was just 17 or 18. At the time, I was taking private art lessons, and my art teacher happened to be a Reiki practitioner. Her studio was filled with spiritual books, and somehow — I don’t even remember exactly how — she lent me a copy of Conversations with God by Neale Donald Walsch.
Reading that book was a life-changing moment. It didn’t feel like I was learning something new; it felt like I was remembering something deep and true. That experience lit a spark in me, one that stayed quietly burning in the background for years.
Life Happens
In my 20s, like many people, I got busy with life. College, jobs, career-building — all the usual milestones. Spirituality took a backseat during that phase, though it was always in the background.
Then, I turned 30 in 2020. Life looked good on the outside: I had a great job, a promotion, a nice apartment. But deep down, I felt empty. I found myself wondering, “Is this it?” I had done all the things I thought I was supposed to do, but something was missing.
Reawakening Through Podcasts
That “something missing” led me to rediscover spirituality — this time, through podcasts I listened to while working. One that made a huge impact on me was Spiritual Shit by Alea Lovely. It was grounded, honest, and resonated with me.
From that point on, I was hooked. All throughout 2022, I was hungry for everything spiritual — books, podcasts, oracle decks, journals, crystals, candles — you name it. I dove deep, and it felt so right.
Putting Myself Out There
By February 2023, I felt ready to start giving oracle readings for others. I offered free readings within spiritual communities I’d joined — safe, welcoming spaces where people were also learning and growing. We exchanged readings, shared insights, and supported each other.
Those communities were everything to me. Without them, I honestly don’t know how I would’ve gained the confidence to start reading for others. Practicing with strangers gave me the space to grow, trust my intuition, and learn how to truly listen.
Where I Am Now
In 2025, I officially launched my intuitive oracle reading business. It’s a passion project, not something I’m trying to turn into a massive empire. I just want to share what I’ve learned and help make spirituality feel approachable, relatable, and — most importantly — normal.
We’re finally getting more comfortable talking about mental health. My hope is that one day, spiritual health will be just as normalized — something we can talk about at the dinner table right alongside physical and mental wellbeing.
Spirituality doesn’t have to be heavy or mysterious. You can go deep, sure, but you don’t have to. Just understanding the basics and learning to trust your intuition is powerful enough.
My Mission
If there’s one message I want to leave you with, it’s this: you are just as intuitive as anyone else. You don’t need to be born with some rare gift. Your intuition is real, and you can use it. My mission is to help empower you to do just that — to trust yourself, to listen inward, and to embrace your own inner guidance.
Thanks for reading, and if you’re curious to explore more, I’d love it if you subscribed to my YouTube channel. It really does help — and I’m so excited to continue sharing this journey with you.
With love,
Karina
