Client Love

"I knew for a long time that there was a book I wanted to write and publish, but life kept getting in the way. I am so grateful I connected with Christy and her studio! Her book coaching program was exactly what I needed. We built out my storyline and she supported me through the whole writing process. I was able to write my novel on a much quicker timeline and it was so nice to have her coaching expertise anytime the words weren't flowing.
I am so proud of this book. Christy truly inspired me to be the best writer I could be and if you're also considering writing a book, my advice is to do it!! Don't wait! Christy has exactly what you need and I could not recommend her offers more!"

- Kaitlyn Evans, Author of The Blind Switch

Something interesting happened with this one. I went into it thinking I was painting one image and it transformed on the canvas as something entirely different.

The Northern Lights and a very specific waterfront location for this client, emerged.

And then, after she received it, she sent me the most amazing photo of the colourful lights she witnessed in the sky in that exact spot. 🤯

These paintings are powerful. And I’d love to create your own version for you!

2016, I remember you like a summer day you don’t want to end. You were the year I published Heartsand, my first novel, had my very first book signing, and experienced what it was like to share my story with the world beyond just the secret document on my laptop. Launching a new book this year, this all feels fitting.

I think we all had the same version of that hat, but despite all the awk posed photos, there’s a softness to that time I hope we can get back.

Have you noticed specific *coincidental* patterns in your life lately?

When we are on the path to our highest timeline, our world speaks to us in synchronicities and the more aligned we are, the more detailed and specific they become. This is how we know.

They move from just repeated numbers and familiar references to patterns that relate directly to you and your life. Like someone mentioning a random date but it happens to be your birthday. Hearing a reference to an old song you’ve been listening to twice in one day from unconnected places. Seeing a painting that used to hang in your grandmother’s house in a place where a new opportunity awaits you.

When you learn to spot these happenings, these ohhmyggg coincidences, more and more appear, guiding you exactly where you need to go, like your own personalized map.

Okay so all this said, let me know all your most intriguing synchronicities below. I can’t get enough of these stories.

If you know, in your bones, you will write and publish your book, 2026 is wide open for this to become your reality. If you believe it can happen next year, it certainly can.

But it all follows this step:

You must take aligned action. Momentum always follows action.

The action step could be starting the document draft, mapping out your story, writing for the afternoon, learning about hooks and tropes. Whatever you’re being pulled towards, take that step. That’s your launching point, the action that puts out the signal: Yes this is happening. Yes I’m doing this for real. Yes this will be my reality.

And, to help you with that starting step, I have my intuitive book writing bundle on sale right now.
💓You’ll get my whole “Start Your Book” passive course and my book writing guide that outlines just how intuitives writes books differently.
All for just $40.
💓Comment “Book” and I’ll send you the link!

The Stars Hollow Edition 🍂☕️

The Stars Hollow Edition 🍂☕️

A painting that can change the energy of the room. Because it’s infused with your intention. Because it’s so completely personalized to you.

That when you walk in, you feel it first and then there it is, on your wall, radiating your largest desires back to you.

As proof it all gets to be yours.

Sometimes we need this physical reminder, that we can see and feel right on the wall in our homes, to help bring in exactly what we do want.

Spirit Art is encoded with your own subliminal message/intention and then I paint what I see for you. And share everything else that came through for you in the process.

Regular and minis are currently open for booking! I’d love to create one for you too.

Embodying it so she can fully BE it. A reminder that she IS love.

This painting was all about feeling over detailed visuals which was a huge lesson in trust for me. Getting the colours right, knowing when to step away. A message that came up for the client too.

It also ignited clairalience as I kept picking up on her signature scent that will become a pivotal part of her business. One of my fav parts of this experience!

The most WILD thing happened in my latest Spirit Art painting as I took a few pics of the final product. The sun began shining down on it in the most intriguing ways, beaming right into the sky I created, creating ripples I could feel bouncing off the canvas.

All I kept thinking was this portal (to this client’s wildest dreams) is now ACTIVATED.

I can’t stop looking at those light beams.

These kinds of paintings are potent. Ready for yours too?🌟

This kind of painting is the key to what you’ve been trying to manifest.

It’s the visual of your desires, the energy of what you’re calling in. There, on display for you to look at and FEEL each day. This, as we know, is what brings manifestations into your reality - feeling them as though they’ve already arrived.

So, a painting like this could change everything for you.

Showing you what’s real & possible right before it becomes your reality.

It’s already happening for previous painting clients and it’s truly THE best feeling hearing how these art pieces are working their magic.😍

If you’ve been sitting with your unfinished book doc, avoiding it in full procrast-mode, 😅 while also dreaming of the book you know you’re meant to write - there’s a reason it’s still not written.

Intuitive girlies write books differently. 👀❤️‍🔥

We’re not meant to push through with the goal to just get words down on the page.

We’re not meant to exhaust ourselves with the process.

Where’s the fun in that, anyway?!

The old way is definitely obsolete. And will make book writing feel daunting.

Because we’re meant to FLOW with it. To tune in, to connect directly to our channel where the best words flow from. In a way that lights up our whole body.

Mixing channeling with structure.

Where you’re absolutely excited to dive back into what you’re writing every time you step away.

It’s the NEW era of storytelling and bringing books to life.

And if you’re an intuitive, in-tune, in-her-embodiment-era girlie, this is the exact way to write your devour-worthy book.

Introducing - Spirit Art *minis* 💓

These are the exact same intuitive, intention-inspired channeled paintings as the OG spirit art, just in a smaller size.

You send me your intention/desire/what you’re calling into your life and I channel that into a painting, downloading the frequency of it. So you have a physical representation to hang on your wall + feel the energy of each day.

Each painting comes with a reading of everything that came through for you in the process!

While I intuitively choose canvases for each client, the mini painting option is around an 8x10 instead of a full sized canvas, with a mini reading to go along with it!

Drop ART in the comments and I’ll save one of these for you. ❤️‍🔥

Some of the recent Spirit Art paintings I’ve created have been scenes depicting nature and locations that are being called in - but sometimes it’s a person that comes in.

In this case, a guide/ reflection of their most radiant self. The energy of HER.

And it’s been the most fun painting portrait style, too.

Want your own intuitive painting + allll the downloaded messages that come with it?

I’d love to create one for you in one of my last summer openings.

I’ve been leaning into creating art with intention infused right into it.

And what I’ve noticed and come to see is that these paintings will create big shifts in your life.

Positive change. What you want, manifesting into your reality. Sooner, more aligned, better than expected.

Because they are representations of your desire, the frequency of that, hanging on your wall to help you align with that energy.⚡️

So that it can come to BE in your life and reality.

All the ones I’ve done so far, the clients have shared how things have shifted, almost immediately from receiving their painting and I’m blown away by this and also not surprised. Because intention + frequency + art is a potent combination.

Want to experience this for yourself? So your desire can come to BE so much quicker? So you can display a lovely new art piece in your space?DM me or link in bio to claim a Spirit Art opening!

My latest Spirit Art painting was meant to be a circular canvas from the start and focused on two unique intentions flowing together.

One around her heartspace.
One around feeling FREE in a home by the water.

With three pages of personalized, channeled messages to go along with it, she now has the painting to remind her of all that’s possible/headed her way (aka the physical representation of the energy of her desires).

This is my actual fav thing to do - creating these for you!

Featuring my latest Spirit Art intuitive painting, now hanging on the client’s wall, acting as a beautiful manifestation of their intention/desire, so they can connect into it everyday.❤️‍🔥

This one focused on the energy of PLAY and attracting in abundance from slipping into this creative state, and I was surprised how it came through as the most soothing inner calm with fiery cracks of passion woven in. Not all excitement - it’s truly grounded balance.

The scene was very much connected to their ancestral land, presenting an invitation into the wisdom there.

They now have their artwork and all the guidance that flowed through with it.

I am obsessed with creating art in this way and each painting is so different and unique to the recipient. Would you love your own piece? I have a few slots left for summer! ☀️DM me or checkout the form in my bio!

I’m celebrating our SIXTH issue of Calla Mag & our writers by sharing a fun little snippet from each piece. To read more, order your issue (print or digital) or follow each author for more.

“I heard your voice, you told me that this is the path and onward is the way. This isn’t a sad story but a sacred one.” - @witchleyrose

“I was able to reconcile with him across the veil, to get the answers, the clarity I needed to forgive him, and ultimately alchemize the energy of the bomb explosion into an atomic pack of power and purpose that would catalyze me into new levels of growth, awareness and creative direction.” - @marstonfries

“So, sing your song, even if you don’t know the lyrics yet!” - @opichi.photography

“Before I realised I needed to be nice, before I was told I must be kissed awake, before I was taught to stay in the tower, my heroines were of bared teeth, myth and magic, misty battle, gritty knowledge, blazing conviction.”- @nathaliejamespoet

“The dream space is crucial for understanding how to connect with our feminine divine essence. It is not only where we are safe, but also where we thrive, co-create and listen to the messages flowing through our blood and consciousness.” - @corinacrysler

“I became a guide through the deaths and rebirths we all face. A space-holder. A witness. A reminder that the fire we walk through doesn’t destroy us but that it instead remakes us.” - @innerlightintuitive

“Sisterhood looks different for everyone - but when it’s real, you feel it in your soul.” - @stucklesshealingco

“She hoped this song would provide anyone else hearing it, the courage to keep walking forwards, to feel all that arises with great strength and grace, and to keep sharing their own stories.” - @withopenwings

“We didn’t know what we were running from only that the running felt holy.” - @_innerradiancecollective

“We just stood there, two women holding the ghosts of the girls we used to be.” - @thewriterwithrednails

“We were an old folklore tale, a mere story from the depths of the woods.” - @tamaracw39

“Colly Halloway felt like a girl ready to be noticed. It was like an invisible force how she was drawn to all the places he was.” - The CL

When a painting becomes the physical representation of your intention or desire, something you can anchor into, right there in front of you.

With a reading of messages, sent to you after, with your painting, holding all that came through for you in the painting creation process.

Each painting is entirely tailored to you and the images and scenes are each unique and varying. Featured, in the meantime, is another beach sky as I reveal the latest paintings to the clients first. But you’ll get a glimpse of them all so soon and I cannot wait to share what I’ve been creating!

Want one of your own? I have limited space this next month but I’d love to create one for you!

I said to a friend recently, “I wish I could show you what I’m seeing for you. That you could see what I’m seeing. It’s so so beautiful.”

It was a glimpse of somewhere she was headed, a scene playing out that took my breath away. I described it to her. I told her what it felt like and was a little sad I couldn’t just transfer this image right to her, so she could see it too, so she could FEEL it exactly as I did.

And then I realized.

OF COURSE.

I could paint it for her.

So she COULD see it too.

And FEEL it.

And there it was, one of the first pings of what Spirit Art could be.

I’m obsessed with this process and can’t wait to channel this through for you, too.

In the process of painting again, I began painting for other people, tuning into an intention or desire for them and creating a painting to become the physical representation of it.

Calling in the energy so that the painting holds the frequency of that desire, as a tangle visual of what’s possible for them.

Sharing all that came through for them afterwards, with their pretty new painting. 🖼️

This one here was for a client seeking her next home and all the magic she’ll be creating in her business in this new chapter, with next steps on how to get there.

I’m booking in these Spirit Art slots for the next month and then will reopen them later in the summer. So if you want one, perfectly tailored to you, DM me!

🔹Book Review🔹

I just finished Dinner For Vampires by Bethany Joy Lenz and it was equal mix nostalgia, charm and heartwrenching feels. As an avid One Tree Hill fan back in the day (and okay, in a few recent rewatches) and her podcast, I was so intrigued by the behind-the-scenes story of her life during the time she acted on the show.

Joy is pure class as she describes the years of manipulation she underwent in a cult that took advantage of her belief systems. She stresses that cults are not always matching clothing and kool-aid but also normal-seeming places that prey on vulnerability and people’s desire for family and community. Treacherous, I know.

There was a moment at the start of the book where she has an experience in a diner in NYC where she feels an energy sit down next to her and state, ‘Never doubt that I’m real’ and a full circle moment at the end where she feels that same voice tell her, “I needed you to believe I was real then, for this moment right now.” (This is not directly quoted) And I just keep thinking about it. I’ve been thinking about it since.

I’m biased with this one because I already adore her and am a fan girl 💁‍♀️ but Joy’s story is courage for others who have had their voice silenced and made to feel small when they were always meant to stand on the stage and be a 🌟 .

Her story moves beyond that of a cult and toward every woman who has been made to feel guilty for following her dreams. I just want to go back and hug her tight. But her strength now is everything. Completely recommend!
