About your guide
Hi, I’m Lauren!
I’ve been dancing with Spirit for the past 10 years. What started as an interest in ghosts, turned into a full-on passion for all things intuitive, psychic and paranormal. It’s not an overstatement when I say this work has literally changed my life. What was a dream even just 4 years ago is now my reality thanks to the skills and practices you’ll learn in this program.
I recall countless moments as a child where my psychic abilities were strong. I would often have prophetic dreams, and could sense spirits around me. But I pushed these aside until 9 years ago when I was reintroduced to ghost hunts. I still didn’t take this passion seriously until 2018 when my emotional world came crashing down. On and off in my twenties, I suffered from random but bad bouts of anxiety. During these waves I would feel disconnected from society, and from myself. However, the last bout in 2018 became a catalyst of change. The anxiety had impacted my eating, sleeping, relationships, self-image, sanity, and health.
I had lost my sense of self and was stuck in a loop of overthinking. I remember the moment so vividly: one night I woke up – sweating, heart racing, anxiety pulsing through my mind and body. I took a deep breath and thought “this is not who I am, it’s simply something I’m experiencing. It doesn’t define me”. And it was at this time that I felt a strong presence, something that wasn’t of this world, that felt like a warm hug from a friend. And there began my journey into healing and connecting back to my soul. Spirit would often leave my signs and symbols that I was on that right track. It was not an easy process by any means (healing rarely is and everyone’s journey is different), but bit by bit I was able to put myself back together and start feeling like me again. I came out on the other side with a burning desire to work with the spiritual realm in a more serious way. After-all, my connection to the spirit world helped me immensely during this time of healing and Spiritual Awakening.
I truly believe I was meant to experience anxiety so that I could discover this path and serve others. Fast-forward to today and from this work I’ve experienced many deep moments of gratitude, love, joy, inner-peace and fulfillment, and am reminded daily that we are never alone. My strong connection with intuition, soul and spirit has allowed me to open myself up to amazing experiences, people and impact. It has allowed me to build a business that serves the collective while simultaneously allowing abundance to flow into my life. I can honestly say I am the happiest and fulfilled I’ve ever been!
Within the Academy of Psychic Development, you will journey into the wisdom of your soul, illuminate your psychic abilities, and become a strong conduit of guidance for yourself and others.

FAQ:
Do I get immediate access?
Yes! With registration, you get instant access to the Pre-Study and Module One content, as well as the Slack channel. Remaining modules are dripped weekly or bi-monthly. TAPD also includes lifetime access to the program platform & slack channel so you can re-start and dive deeper at any time. Join the waitlist now to be notified when the program opens for enrolment on January 12th, 2024.
When are the group mentorship calls scheduled?
The group mentorship calls are currently scheduled weekly on Tuesdays. The times may vary to accommodate for different time zones (a calendar of month ahead call times will be posted in your portal). These calls will not be recorded. All calls will be held live on Zoom.
How long will I have to commit per week?
This is really up to you. To get the most out of the program, we encourage daily practice but understand life can get busy. Be sure to put aside 3-6 hours per week for the course videos and practice time.
Can I actually connect to the spirit world?
Yes! Everyone has psychic abilities. It is a myth that only a select few have this gift. It is our inherent birthright. This program will teach you how!
Will this program teach me how to connect to friends/family that have passed?
Short answer, no. This course is foundational to any spirit work. You’ll learn how to connect to your spirit guides, ancestors, divine source, the different dimensions, and your soul. We will explore mediumship, but it will not be a comprehensive guide to connecting with friends and family that have passed. I recommend joining an Evidential Mediumship program for this.
Do I have to be an experienced psychic to join?
No! This program is specifically designed for those that are looking to dive deeper into their abilities and/or learn to read for others.
So, I’m enrolling, what happens next?
Yay! Congratulations on embarking on the next stage of your spiritual journey! I am so honoured to guide you and proud of you for making this commitment! Upon enrolment you will receive a welcome email with next steps and a link to access the learning platform.
