We had the good fortune of connecting with MaryAnna Clemons and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi MaryAnna, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I wanted to know if it was real. Before starting down this path, I’d never had a tarot reading or a mediumship reading! I started with Tarot for fun. I’d always been interested in learning but the idea of learning 78 definitions and then 78 more reversed definitions always stopped me.
This time, I said what the heck, let’s do it. Once I started, I couldn’t stop.
At the time, I had also finally left a relationship I should have left decades prior, and it was as if the Universe was holding onto all this information for me and just handed it over, piece by piece.
Now, I teach it all – Tarot, psychic, evidential mediumship and animal communication! And without reversed cards or a lot of they hype, I might add.
Today, I am one of the more fairly priced readers out there and I combine psychic with evidential mediumship and animal communication, as well as non-verbal communication (think autism or coma). I charge for my time, so you can mix-and-match your reading and talk to a passed over animal or a passed over grandma, ask questions about your life today or even have a facilitated conversation for a non-verbal person. I don’t charge extra for using your time, your way! I also don’t charge more for having more than one person in the room.
But, having said all of that, I also still work my 9-5 and I keep that job because this niche can be incredibly feast or famine and if you take anything away today, I would advise you to jump in with both feet, but keep your day job also!
Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I help others heal, laugh, cry and get closure. That could be with animal mediumship or people mediumship. As an animal communicator, I offer evidence before we get into the owner’s questions. I do my best to let you know I’m actually talking to the person, animal or spirit that I say I’m talking to.
I’m very different than most mediums in that I have a potty mouth for days and I bring through people (spirit) that are often hard to bring through. I think one reason for that is that I’m always available to fail.
We are not robots – mediums and animal communicators – we can have off days or bad connections and when that happens, I give a refund, thank the customer for booking and we both move on. If I have someone to refer them to, I will, otherwise, it just didn’t work for us at that moment and frankly it isn’t their fault or mine. That attitude of gratitude, but being aware of being human, I believe sets me apart from many who claim they never fail. Of course they do, we all do from time to time. It’s the ability to be honest about it that separates readers.
I’m also very down to earth and probably one of the least woo-woo mediums and animal communicators that you’ll meet. If you want to talk about twin flames or past lives, I’m not your best bet, but if you just want to connect and have an amazing experience with evidence, I’m your reader.
Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I live down in the Colorado Springs area, east of the mountains. I love the history of Southern Colorado. Did you realize that the Arkansas River used to be the border between Mexico and the United States? I know this may give my historical intelligence a solid dent, but I did not realize that. I worked in Pueblo for a time and came to love the history of the area, but I have to say, realizing that Pueblo was basically where all the outlaws were running to as they escaped the law in my old western books, was a both a let down (they didn’t travel as far as I thought) and amazing at the same time. I was standing, metaphorically and literally, in the shadow of so many great people who came before me.
Pueblo is also an amazing place for women’s history. The https://www.theheritagecenter.us/ museum is small. Very small. And they have an amazing display of women who changed the history of their area in an era when women were generally ignored and looked down on. In fact, in order to get this info right, I called the museum and Emily Wilson grave me an example of Josephine Prior who worked the telephone systems, along with other women, during the 1921 Pueblo flood. These women stayed on the phones, as the water rose, and continued to call and warn others downriver of the danger! They played records to keep their spirits in tact as they climbed to the third floor of their building, away from the rising water, and kept calling.
Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My mom, who was a covert narcissist. That sounds terribly counter-intuitive, right? But, regardless of who she was in life, I loved her, with all my poor, pitiful empath heart. I thought that woman hung the moon and even though I can see her faults now (she passed in 1995), I have empathy for who she was and how hard she had to work to get by.
It was my mom that I wanted to talk to, as soon as I got into my mediumship circles. I prayed she would come through – and she did – multiple times. She also gave me apologies through mediums that (in part) healed parts of my heart that needed healing.
Today, she is my biggest supporter from the other side and she is one of my Spirit Teachers for students. Hearing students talk to my mom and having her show up to help me now has been sense of closure to a fractured relationship from decades past.
