Hi. I’m Shelly Ebeling I am the mother of two incredible boys, a certified Akashic Record Reader, a Cord-Cutting practitioner, and a Professional Intuitive.
Originally from Seattle, Washington, my husband and I decided to sell everything we owned, pick up our family and move to the beautiful island of Maui, Hawaii. We spent the next year and a half playing on the beach, swimming with the honu (sea turtles) and making lifelong friends who will forever be our Ohana (family). It was also a time for me to grow as an intuitive, connect on a deeper level with my Guides and refine my spiritual practice
When our oldest son went to college, we decided to head back to the Northwest and move to the mountainous and also very beautiful city of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho which is where we made our home for a few years. As life has it, the house we used to rent on Maui came up for sale and in an instant, we were back home on our island.
Before we left Seattle, I was the owner of a successful artisan soap company and thought I was living a very happy (but very busy) life. Although I has happy on some level, I began to feel somewhat disconnected and incredibly ungrounded in that lifestyle. I knew I wasn’t living my true calling, but didn’t know what that calling was...yet!
I had always known I was sensitive to energy and had many experiences as a child and teenager that I chose to write-off as anything significant. I remember being about 4 years old in my childhood home and seeing disembodied heads walking toward me down the hall at night as I crossed to use the bathroom. Trust me when I say I only used the bathroom at night when it was an emergency!
As a teenager, I had several experiences in my sister’s house that I could not explain. My first experience in that house happened as I was sleeping in the upstairs attic area. I dreamt that a deceased great-aunt was about to sit on the edge of my bed. I woke up from that dream to the end of my bed moving and feeling someone (invisible to the naked eye) sit on my feet. Someone was definitely with me.
I had enough experiences in her house that when I would babysit my nephew at night I would wear my sister’s cross around my neck and pray for protection, even though I was far from religious.
As I got older, I also began to notice that I was sensitive to other people’s moods. I would suddenly become grumpy or sad or irritated based on how the people around me were feeling. I also suddenly became extremely claustrophobic. Crowded places would give me panic attacks. It was hard to understand then, but I have a name for those feelings now. I am an Emotional Empath.
In my mid-30’s, I had an event that would change my life forever and set me on the path I am on today.
My husband, two boys and I moved into a rental home in a little town called Issaquah in Washington State. The leasing agent failed to disclose to us that the previous owner had passed away in the home just three weeks prior to us moving in. As soon as we moved in, I started experiencing the worst depression I had ever felt in my life. I was literally crying from the moment I woke up to the minute I went to sleep. I was seeing mists float through the house, the bricks on the fireplace would start to shake, and I was having conversations with my family that I did not remember. My thoughts and actions were also not my own.
I discovered that when I was away from the house for about 10 minutes or so, the weight I was feeling in my body would lift and I would become myself again. This was a very scary time for our entire family. I began spending every day out of that house with my then 11-month old, simply walking the streets of Issaquah, or sitting in a restaurant with him for hours on end. Anything to get away from that house.
We had moved in, unpacked, decorated, and then moved out of that house with two kids in under 5 week’s time. If you have ever moved a family of four anywhere, you know it must have been bad for us to leave so quickly! It was a terrible strain on us financially and emotionally. Here is where you can learn more about that terrible time.
Within a year after moving out of that house, I started to experience physical ailments that couldn’t be explained: electric volts shooting through my entire body, shaky hands, sudden and unexplained bouts of anxiety and chronic pain that seemed to be coming out of nowhere. I realized (after watching a famous Medium discuss some of the same symptoms on television) that I could not ignore my gifts any longer and it was Spirit literally shaking me to get me to wake up. You can read more about that here.
What a surprise!
Fortunately, I had an extremely supportive husband and children who wholeheartedly understood and embraced my new journey. After seeing how that house had affected me, they had no doubt that this was my calling! Once I acknowledged my gifts and began to learn about (and then practice) intuitive development, my ailments all but disappeared. My life changed forever. I was set on a track of spiritual awakening, not only for myself, but eventually for my clients as well.
I started taking courses on how to tap into Spirit to give intuitive readings and became certified as an Akashic Record Reader through my mentor and well known psychic, Anna Sayce. Much to my surprise, Anna herself asked me to become the resident Akashic Record Reader for her clients while she focused on other aspects of her business. Eventually, she personally trained me in how to do Energetic Cord-Cutting and Empath Aura Cleansing.
I went from slinging soap at a Farmer's Market to professional intuitive and healer in only a few years of dedicated, hard work!
Today, I am grateful to be able to connect with Guides, Spirit, and humans on a level that bridges a gap for some and allows them to live their lives as their souls were meant to live. Reading the Akashic Records, providing intuitive guidance, and facilitating healing through Energetic Cord-Cutting for my clients allows me to do that.
Trust me, I am still a down-to-earth, football watching, beer-drinking girl, but now I also get to align my grounded personality with my spiritual side to hopefully help others find a sense of balance and clarity themselves.
Warmly,
