My name is Lindsay Getz. I am 39 years old and live in Vermont with my husband and two young sons, Griffin and Sullivan. A few years ago I was told by a psychic that I would some day be able to channel spirits if I wanted to. I was 100% sure she was wrong, but I was also curious what that even meant. And so began my spiritual journey.
At the time I was working full-time as the Chief Operating Officer for my family's real estate development company, juggling life's demands (not especially well), and feeling like being busy was a norm I would never see the end of. I was an achiever, always holding the highest standards for myself and those around me. I loved my job. It was fulfilling and making me more and more money.
About a year before my experience with the psychic, I had begun to feel the pangs of living, as I know now, unconsciously. I didn't have the word for it then, but I had begun noticing that I was doing things and not feeling good about them. They were things I had always done, in ways that were completely normal to me, but I could no longer ignore the feeling that I didn't like myself when I acted like that. I felt self-loathing, confusion, stuck-ness, anger, and shame.
I was eager to understand myself and how I showed up in the world. I had never questioned this before and really just followed along with the way my parents had done things. But between work and two young kids, I never had time. Still, I knew something had to give.
I began experimenting with meditation and shortly after stumbled onto spiritual leader, Eckhart Tolle on Oprah's SuperSoul podcast (see my podcast list here). He opened my mind to the concept of our thoughts not always being true. Then I had the session with the psychic and everything I once thought about myself came into question. Big, difficult questions like "who am I?" and "who do I want to be?" and "what is the point of all of this?"
From there, I plunged myself into the world of spirituality, with a million questions and not enough time to read. What is Buddhism? What is a medium? Why do we suffer? What is Reiki? What are spirit guides? Do past lives really exist? What is intuition? How do I trust it? Who was Jesus? What is my ego? What is all of this for anyway??
For the past few years I have pondered these questions and discovered so much about myself and who I am. What I know so far is that I am a creative at heart. I love helping people. I see the beauty in my surroundings. I am able to communicate with spirits, including my Guides and passed away loved ones. I am curious about people's stories and struggles. I believe in the power of our thoughts. I am hard on myself. I believe the universe will always give us what we need. I have the ability, as we all do, to change. I am still discovering and will always be a seeker. I am so grateful for where I have been and where I am headed.
Most importantly, I discovered that I want to share what I've learned with others who feel stuck, like I once did. With with the help and encouragement of my Guides, I launched Spirit Love in 2021. I invite you to walk with me on this new, exciting, and scary journey!
