Julie Sheehan spent 30 years in the New Age movement. While living the high life as a journalist for some of Australia’s biggest publications, Julie became trapped in what she calls “spiritual darkness and deception”. She led psychic readings, was an astrologer and delved into numerous self-help guides and practices to rid her of a deep feeling of brokenness and trauma.
