In this episode Karen Kay, Fairy and Mermaid Whisperer and bestselling Hay House Author, and I chat about her lifelong journey and connection with fairies, fairies as Guardians of nature and magical manifestors, tips for connecting with Fairies, and the power of gatherings and standing for what you know to be true. What a fun and inspiring conversation! Listen all the way to the end for an Oracle pull from Karen’s new Manifesting with the Fairies deck! It’s a perfect one for the new year :)

Karen Kay, Fairy and Mermaid Whisperer and bestselling Hay House Author, also known as the Fairy Lady, is a dedicated advocate for the enchanting realms of fairies and mermaids. Her work revolves around her love for the elemental world, and she's celebrated as an international bestselling author with Hay House. With two captivating oracle decks, Messages from the Mermaids and Oracle of the Fairies, plus her upcoming release, Manifesting with the Fairies (released on December 5th 2023), Karen is a respected guide and ambassador to these mystical domains.

Karen's enduring connection to the elemental realms allows her to channel ancient wisdom from fairies, mermaids, and unicorns into our human world. As a fervent nature lover, her affinity with mermaids began when she relocated to Cornwall in the late 1980s, where she felt a profound sense of belonging and a magnetic pull to the ocean, inspiring her to sketch mermaids and mermen. Her journey with the fairies dates back to her childhood, nurtured in her grandmother's garden, where she used to gather fallen rose petals to make perfume for the flower fairies.

Rachel takes a largely education based approach in order to help patients engage with their bodies and their health in ways that transform their relationship to healing -- in order to both meet their short term goals, and to help set them up for long term success.
