18: The Joys of Magical Mentoring With Heather Hanson

Heather Hanson is an intuitive, healer, Magical Mentor, creativity junkie, and creator/owner of the Creative Sage Cottage, a healing destination in Union Pier, Michigan. Heather shares with us how she didn’t come from a fairytale background or grow up with affirming messages and for many years, wore masks of her survival self until she hit a very difficult time in 2017. Following this period of darkness, she emerged stronger than ever, with more commitment to share her gifts, talents and healing abilities with the world. Heather’s work includes serving you as a “Magical Mentor”, tarot card reader, Hebrew Aleph-bes expert, and leader of workshops, amongst many other things! Heather supports humans in untangling what has held them back and illuminates light on the shadows to create new possibilities in their lives. Heather continuously asks playful questions and comes to this life with a “Why not?” attitude! She is incredibly inspiring and her energy is contagious! Listen in and let me know what you love! Um, everything!EPISODE TAKEAWAYS (what you’ll learn):What if this was all true?

The Cottage is one part store and one part Magical Mentoring space. A few of my favorite and most consistent hats to wear are that of an intuitive, Magical Mentor, mixed media artist, spiritual interpreter, Magi-crafting facilitator, creativity junkie, writer, teacher, student, wife and mother to Sammy our “Pitador” Rescue pooch. For the last 25 years or so I have extensively studied and taken more classes than I can count in Theology, Religion, Alternative Healing, Jewish Mysticism, Kabbalah, herbalism, psychology, crystal therapy, Tarot as it relates to healing and the Hebrew Alef-bes, Astrology and energy healing. I am an intuitive since long before I took my first breath. I am also a perpetual student and teacher of life and spirituality. Heather founded Creative Sage Cottage, and finally at age 53, I am living from a place of authenticity and truth. During all that darkness I found my way into a deeper relationships with a few old loves; Tarot, the Hebrew Alef-Bes, Jewish mysticism and several other tools that I had always relied on to help me feel closer to God. As I was allowing myself to heal and slowly putting myself and my marriage back together, I fell very intentionally down a deep and magical rabbit hole where I wound up meeting my most authentic self…she was way down there at rock bottom. And that is how my ascent began…I ripped off every band-aid, took off every mask, fought like hell to silence every internal nay-sayer and for the first time in my life, I invited my truest self to rise up out of the ashes. I leaned in whole-heartedly and decided it was time to honor my SELF by using the burdens I had carried as a sort of spiritual healing elixir for others. This is the path of the wounded healer; and it is why my company; Creative Sage Cottage was born. I have an intimate relationship with the darkest night of the soul and it has lead me to know that my souls greatest calling is to remind you of your divine origin, to introduce you to your soul again. I now rely on my intuition in partnership with our Creator to assist you on your journey back to your most authentic self. I am a work in progress holding space for healing and the cultivation of divine memory and magic.See full story here: http://creativesagecottage.com/aboutme.htmlwww.creativesage.comFollow Heather on:InstagramFacebookAbout the Host:Maureen Spielman is the Founder of Mystical Sisterhood, a podcast dedicated to bringing more joy, healing and expansion to the world.
