About Shawn

I believe in the power of transformation—and I know from personal experience that it’s possible for anyone to reclaim their confidence, power, and purpose.

Eight years ago, I was at my lowest, feeling trapped in a life that didn’t align with who I was. After moving to New York City to escape my past, I found myself stuck in a toxic relationship with a narcissistic, heroin-addicted partner who emotionally and verbally abused me. It was the moment he confessed his addiction that I made the life-changing decision to rewrite my story.

Through tarot, witchcraft, therapy, and intersectional feminism, I began a deeply transformative journey—one that allowed me to embrace my identity as a neurodivergent, bisexual woman and step into the powerful witch I was always meant to be.

Today, I’ve integrated the art of witchcraft into every facet of my life, and I’ve become the most confident, authentic version of myself. My passion is now to help others on their journeys to personal empowerment, helping them transform their lives through shadow work, tarot, and the occult. I can’t wait to support you in discovering your own power and potential.

Together, we’ll unlock the truest version of you.

Let me help you become your most powerful and authentic self!

As much as I believe in magick, I also believe in grounding. We love the woo woo, but unfortunately in life there is no magick wand. You are the magick, baby! And it takes some chiseling to allow that magick to shine through. 

This is why I employ cognitive behavioral therapy in my shadow work sessions. I give you tools to practically apply the AHA! moments we uncover together. What a power team!

 My emphasis is always on bridging the gap between the practical and the metaphysical

I'm obsessed  with fashion and creating new looks on Instagram



I’m a creative at heart and I LOVE to sing



I’m a sun, moon, AND rising Scorpio! I might have RBF but I am a mushy little goofball at heart.

My insta feed is filled with runway shows! Using astrology and high fashion to guide my glamour magick really helps with duality in shadow work!

Singing has always gotten me through the worst times. Whether it's the Chicago soundtrack, pop music, or big band jazz, that was one thing my shadow never hid. But now that I've lifted my shadow shame, I work singing into my daily practice!

I dove into astrology to try to figure myself out before I created my method, and it has given me so much perspective on myself AND my clients! Even though Scorpio gets a bad wrap, I learned there are no *bad* signs, just shame!
