Rachel White returns to A Psychic’s Story — this time exploring something people may be quietly struggling with behind the scenes — the business side of spirituality.

While more people than ever feel called toward intuitive work, healing work, and spiritual entrepreneurship, far fewer openly talk about what it actually takes to build a sustainable spiritual business while staying aligned, authentic, and grounded.

In Part 1 of this two-part conversation, Nichole and Rachel explore Rachel’s early psychic experiences, the period where she pushed spirituality away, and the experiences that ultimately brought her back into intuitive work. They also discuss healing, burnout, perspective, and how spiritual work changes the way you move through life.

In this episode, Rachel shares:

How childhood psychic experiences evolved into professional intuitive work.
The moment she realized spirituality could become her life’s work.
How an illness heightened her clairsentience and energetic sensitivity.
The connection between healing, intuition, and spiritual awakening.
What really shifts when you leave traditional corporate life behind.
Why perspective becomes one of the greatest gifts of spiritual work.

Rachel also opens up about skepticism, trauma, spiritual experiences that changed her worldview, and what it actually feels like to navigate modern spirituality while remaining grounded.
