Meet Lori
I’m Lori — a truth-digger, intuitive guide, and maker of intentional things. Not simply because I read it in a book, though I’ve always loved books, but because I’ve lived the unraveling, the remembering, and the return.
For decades, I built a life within the corporate world — one shaped by resilience, leadership, structure, and responsibility. I’m deeply grateful for those years. They taught me what I could carry, how to lead, how to adapt, and how to provide for the people I love. That chapter gave me belonging in a world that values achievement and certainty.
But eventually, something shifted.
My family stood on their own. The pressure to fit neatly into expectation softened. And in that space, I found myself asking deeper questions — not about success, but about meaning.
That was the turning point.
I began listening more carefully: to intuition, to inherited stories, to grief, to beauty, to the quiet truths beneath the surface. I turned toward the lessons — not to escape hardship, but to alchemize it into something useful. Something honest. Something that could support both myself and others on the journey back to themselves.
Over time, this philosophy evolved into what I now call the Intention Journey — a reflection of the emotional and energetic states we naturally move through in life. Grounding. Protection. Calm. Joy. Clarity. Transformation. Awakening. Not as rigid steps, but as a living cycle of reclamation.
Today, I work, respectfully, with what the earth offers: crystals, herbs, oils, driftwood, flame, symbolism, and story.
I create the kinds of tools I once needed myself — offerings rooted in reflection, intention, and lived experience.
As a Tarot reader and intuitive guide, I hold space for people to meet themselves honestly. My readings blend symbolism with grounded insight, always rooted in the present moment and the reality of being human.
The Alchemical Muse is the space I’ve carved at the water’s edge — a reflection of what I’ve reclaimed. A place where shadow becomes teacher, where grief can soften into grace, and where transformation is approached not as perfection, but as practice.
This isn’t about becoming someone new.
It’s about remembering who you are — and daring to live like it.
With grit and grace,
Lori
