Part 2 of my conversation with Mimi Young, a witch, a shamanic intuitive, spirit communicator, and founder of Ceremonie, an esoteric brand focusing on education, Shamanic Readings, and plant medicines for skin and aura. Mimi's purpose is to help people connect with their spirits. She does this by integrating core shamanism, plant spirit healing, dream symbol interpretation, and Chinese esoterics in a deeply healing way.
Though possessing psychic gifts her whole life, Mimi stepped into this work when she had a profound shamanic experience while on bedrest for 5 months during her pregnancy with her second child. She sees her experience as a way to bridge modern living with ancestral living, to be in full relationship with the seen and unseen worlds, and to break the stale moulds of existing structures that no longer serve us.
