Meet Gillian Grant | Intuitive Tarot & Healer

We had the good fortune of connecting with Gillian Grant and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Gillian, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I have long been drawn to healing and helping support others on the journey to living their best damn life. I started my career as a health educator with teens in a high school clinic, which was the start of me really investing in myself and others. My journey started from a toxic place of people pleasing, but changed into a more grounded space of sharing my learnings with others. I love working with people and seeing them grow into self love and belief. I have always been drawn to spirituality and intuition, and finally was brave to step fully in to “this world” and my power. I’ve done a lot of therapy, have many amazing mentors, and finally believe I’m amazing. I want everyone to get here also and believe they’re amazing. I am an intuitive tarot reader, healer, and self love fan of everyone. I believe all of us are powerful and magical and I want to support others who’ve been through hell and back like me to believe in themselves.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
Trauma warnings. Abuse. Alcohol.
I had an autoimmune disease in high school that threw my confidence and understanding of my body into a tailspin. I started disassociating and was really pissed that my body stopped working the way I wanted it to or it had been for my whole life until that point.

I am an oldest daughter whose worth was stressed by good grades and a “steady job” and that I’m a role model
for my sibling. I’ve had to work had to unravel perfectionism and people pleasing that arose from these expectations.

I continued to disassociate with alcohol for most of my 20s and 30s until I couldn’t take being sick, hungover, and hating myself anymore. After going to therapy in 2020 for work frustrations and working on healing myself, I found myself at a spiritual shop getting a tarot reading that changed my life and had me move forward with healing. One thing led to another and I found myself taking classes and practicing often to be more connected to my intuition and spirit guides.

I LOVE what I do and I LOVE supporting others who are new or experienced in the spiritual world. I am a self love fan of others as I have been through hell and back to learn to love myself and found peace within. I am still a work in progress, as we all are, and so excited to be here in space with you all.
