Becoming a Spiritual Baddie (With God Leading the Way)
Thereās a version of me that has always been drawn to magic.
Even as a little girl, I was curious about witches, energy, and the unseen. It wasnāt something I talked about muchābut it was always there, quietly pulling at me.
My Godmom, Sherri, saw that curiosity early on. And she tried to protect me from it.
She would warn me about Ouija boards, about opening doors you canāt close. I remember her even making me watch The Skeleton Keyāas if to say, this is not something to play with. She made me promise I would never use a Ouija board.
And I kept that promise.
She passed away not long after, and of course⦠the thought crossed my mind. That tiny voice that wonders, what if I could talk to her again?
But deep down, I knewāthat wouldnāt be her. And Iāve always trusted that feeling.
But hereās the thingā¦
Even with those warnings, even with that fearāI never lost my connection to the spiritual side of myself.
It just⦠evolved.
Becoming a spiritual baddie isnāt about having all the answersāitās about creating a routine that feels aligned with your faith, your energy, and your intention. Whether youāre exploring tarot for beginners, building a spiritual routine, or learning how to balance faith and spirituality, this journey looks different for everyone. For me, itās about staying grounded in God while also embracing mindfulness, reflection, and intentional living.
Now, my relationship with spirituality feels grounded, intentional, and safe. I donāt seek controlāI seek understanding. I donāt chase powerāI lean into purpose.
These days, my practices are simple but meaningful:
- Pulling one card daily from my Wisdom of the Buddha Mindfulness Deck by Matthew Smith
- Pulling one from my Legendary Ladies Goddess Deck by Ann Shen
- Lighting incense (Iāll link a few of my favorites here)
- Cleansing with sage
- Working with crystals
- Setting intentions for the day ahead
⨠Iāve linked the two decks I use, along with a few of my favorite incense options, in case you feel drawn to explore them as well.
And yesā¦
I use the cutest little fairy incense holderāshe has soft green wings and this whole earthy, forest vibe that makes the entire ritual feel so much more intentional.
Itās the kind of detail that turns a simple moment into something that feels a little magical.

Every morning, I ask for guidance:
What do I need to know today? What will help me move through this day with peace, clarity, and purpose?
And I listen.
Now let me be clear about something that matters deeply to me:
I believe in God. I am a Christian.
And at the same time, I also believe in Buddhist principlesāmindfulness, presence, compassion. I believe that Buddha understood he was not God, but that his teachings align beautifully with living a righteous, intentional lifeāone that reflects the kind of life the Bible calls us to live.
To me, these beliefs donāt conflictāthey complement.
I believe God created this world with intention⦠and that includes the tools we find within it.
Crystals. Energy. Stillness. Reflection.
I donāt see them as replacements for faithāI see them as extensions of it.
And above everything elseā¦
I believe in intention.
I am very intentional about what I put out into the world. I donāt move with negativity, because I believe that energy returns. Call it karma, call it consequence, call it spiritual lawāitās real to me.
So I choose kindness. I choose growth. I choose to align myself with light.
Not perfectly. Not every day. But intentionally.
For a long time, I kept this part of myself quiet.
Because people didnāt understand it.
Because I knew it might be judged.
Because I didnāt want to have to explain something that felt so personal.
But Iām in a different place now.
Iām learning how to be fully myselfāwithout shrinking, without filtering, without needing approval.
And if Iām being honest⦠it feels freeing.
If youāve made it this farāhi š¤
Maybe you understand this feeling. Maybe youāve also felt caught between worldsāfaith and curiosity, structure and intuition.
Maybe youāve been quiet about it too.
And if thatās the case⦠just know youāre not alone.
Not anymore.
This is just the beginning of this part of my story.
I want to create a space here for these conversationsāfor exploring spirituality, intention, faith, and everything in between.
So if this resonates with you, stay tuned.
And if thereās something you want to talk about, explore, or askā¦
