As Above, So Below;
As Within, So Without
Tammy
Tammy is a wife and mother, who just happens to talk to spirits. She has been with her husband for over 26 years, and together they have three sons. She lives intuitively and will often be seen renovating or refreshing her home to reflect that. Highly sensitive to her surroundings, a home where she and her family are safe and comforted, is her priority. She follows her own guidance, knowing that it is possible to live from the vantage point of spirit, while being grounded in this earth.
​
Tammy was very intuitive and psychic as a child, and she began seeing spirits, in what she calls “3D,” over 25 years ago, which then led her to start her own home based business, “Feathers and Smudge.” Having been thrown into the deep end of mediumship, without any training, her first intentional connection to spirit was with a woman who had been murdered. From there, she began connecting to spirits who met their deaths in difficult situations. In the earlier years, Tammy thought she would work for Missing Persons, or help solve criminal cases, but now she prefers to teach mediumship, while offering channeled messages from the group she calls “Unity.” Her work with animals began through animal mediumship, and then continued to where it is today. She is often asked for help with missing animals, due to her ability to discern if an animal is alive or has passed away. She has many working horses as clients, and is most content chatting with animals, both here and in the spirit world.
​
Tammy also connects to Beings from other times and places, works with her main guide Tan regularly, as well as her dragon Ella. She is a writer and has published two of her own books and is always working on another. Tammy also enjoys interior design, decorating, gardening and anything witchy.
​
After many years of solo work, she has become passionate about teaching others, bringing messages from spirits, to guide others to live from intuition, faith and curiosity. Tammy offers a blend of earthly and high vibrational messages, bridging the mystical with the mundane.
​
Tammy has completed the inaugural offering of Oracle Card Personal Mastery/Colette Baron Reid, is part of the alumni/membership with Spirit Talker Tribe-Shawn Leonard, a former member of Miraculous Mediumship, a group based in Scotland with HayHouse author Lauren Robertson, and former certified facilitator/teacher for medium, Carmel Joy Baird of Mom’s A Medium, and has professional experience as an interior designer/decorator.

A NOTE TO OUR ANATOMY OF INTUITION GRADUATES
Dear Anatomy of Intuition Graduates, this is not a continuation of the Maiden/Mother certification. Instead, it is a separate slumber party retreat and no prerequisites are required. We will be sending out a note in the New Year regarding the continuation of our Anatomy of Intuition Certification.
This weekend is an investment in yourself, a profoundly magickal and soul-enriching experience filled with opportunities for deep self-discovery.

Nestled in a private forested setting, the Folk Tree Lodge offers beautiful artisan-crafted cabins and natural beauty. Located just 5 minutes from the eclectic shopping and dining of Bragg Creek, our 30 acres of paradise will make for a truly magickal stay!
SHARED BEDS

This is going to be like a true Slumber Party - some beds will be shared - pillows make wonderful barriers! Earplugs will be provided for those seeking a more introspective experience. ;-)
-
Tammy and Gillian will assign rooms on a first-come, first-served basis. If you have a preferred roommate, please let us know. Final room assignments will be shared two weeks before our weekend together in our email reminder.

Tammy and Gillian are pleased to offer you the option of attending the weekend retreat without staying overnight. This is only if you live close, or prefer to go home at night and return in the morning. There is a $200 discount for day attendance. This is completely voluntary as we will have space for everyone up to the bed limits.
​
NO ALCOHOL
When inviting spirits in and weaving spells, it is best to practice abstinence from alcohol. Alcohol is a depressant afterall, and we will want to be holding our vibrations high, raising spirits of another sort.
