About Me
Hi, I'm Annabelle, lovely to meet you!
My life has been a journey of interesting twists, turns and challenges which have all led me right here. Never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined my life to turn out the way it has but everything has been for a reason. It hasn’t been the easiest of journeys but with my own inner healing, it has allowed me to be able to meet my clients in their own healing journey in a depth I would not be able to if it wasn’t for the experiences of my past. I know the phenomenal power which healing and positivity bring as I have applied it to my own growth and development, and as I am applying it to my clients and students development.
Each person and spirit carries with them a unique imprint on their soul, the variety of experience within my life allows me to tap into this with compassion and empathy. For as long as I can remember I have always looked at the people around me and wondered about their life experiences. The challenges they have been faced with and the stories which lie behind their faces. Reflecting upon my own story and healing from this has allowed me the ability to be able to tap into the stories of the clients and students I work with to offer healing and guidance so they are able to move into a more empowered version of themselves. When I look at someone, I see much more than what they present, I see the healing which needs to take place and the potential of their life beyond this.
I am a psychic, medium, healer, teacher and public speaker. My mission is to create a foundation in my clients for their own growth and development.
This is my story.
I was born in Fremantle, WA and grew up in a very broken family. I lived in an environment woven with poverty, abandonment, neglect, emotional abuse, domestic violence, and substance abuse. There are so many missing pieces to my early childhood and it has been a big journey of healing and emotional self discovery for me. I would see spirits walk around my room at night, but I had so much fear inside of me all I could do was hide under the covers and breathe as shallow as possible, hoping they wouldn't see me. Little did I know they were actually there watching over me.
When I was 9 I moved to Byron Bay. Life reinforced more experiences of abandonment and emotional abuse, at this point I was so deeply buried inside myself. The first time I drank alcohol with my school peers, at the age of 12, was the first time I ever felt accepted by anyone. Drinking with friends at night led me to be exposed to sexual abuse and trauma from the age of 12. Not long after I started drinking alcohol I was exposed to other drugs, this opened many more doors for me to escape my own reality and continue to run away from the loneliness I experienced inside myself and started a 23 year long battle with addiction.
Moving to Melbourne I escaped into a world of partying, at the age of 16 I was already going to nightclubs and the idea that the version of me who was accepted was the one who was high on one thing or another was constantly reinforced. I was fun, exciting, adventurous and connected, unless I was sober. I met my husband, Travis, when I was 24. We connected over the party scene and created a deep bond together. Looking back on my life I am so thankful for his anchoring presence in my life and his ability to adapt to the different versions of myself I am discovering. I would still be lost if it wasn't for him in my life.
I started seeing spirit again when I was pregnant with my first child. At the end of the pregnancy I would walk to the bathroom at night time and see the same lady holding a pink birthday cake. This lady was my great grandmother in law - Florence. She came through to let me know I was having a little girl (as we had not found out the sex) and I went into labour on Florence's birthday. We named our little girl after her great, great grandma - Florence.
My teacher and mentor, Benjamin Venes from Spiritual Revolution, entered my life when I was 30. Funny how spirit bring the right people into our lives at the right time and I often wonder what would have become of my life without his gentle, inspiring and guiding presence. Sitting in his development circle from the age of 31 was a major turning point for me. It was 4 years of leaning into the emotional trauma I still held within me, moving past my addiction of running away and understanding I am a medium. If it was not for this development I would still be caught in a loop of generational trauma and would not be the human or mother I am today. Sometimes all it takes is one person to see the truth of who you are to completely reshape and empower a soul.
My mediumship journey has led me to study under the great medium, Paul Jacobs as well as work with the Brunswick Spiritual Lyceum Church. I now understand how my life journey has created within me the ability to empathise with a large variety of souls and I continue to do so through my work at psychic fairs and through my development circle at Spiritual Revolution. I truly am grateful to have the ability to hold space for the healing of others through teaching and my mediumship, and to be able to guide them towards the truth of who they are, just as I was.
On the other side of healing is the ability to see the beauty within all of life experience, to be grateful for all life has to offer and the richness of love which comes with this.
