Kelsey Hoff's Story

Many of us do our big-picture reflecting at the end or the beginning of the calendar year. We’re settling in for the post-holiday wintertime lull when there are few holidays, events, and distractions. Will this be a year to go full hibernation mode and do some inner work while you let your body rest, or is this a time to take action and set plans in motion for 2024?

Make a donation to &Rise through my fundraiser and get a tarot reading for some “wildcard” insights for your year-end reflections.

Donate at one of these levels and let’s see if we can uncover some insight for your journey:

1 Card Quick Insight - $5

delivered via email

3 Card Past/Present/Future - $25

via email or Zoom

Celtic Cross Spread - $50 

via Zoom

Enter your email address when you make your donation so I can contact you! 

Look for an email from kelsey@womenrisechicago.org and reach out to me with any questions.

Thank you so much, and best wishes for 2024!

Kelsey


Year-End Reflections for 2023

Being a trauma survivor myself, I know how the added stress, mind blocks, and darkness from past experiences can make it hard to see the best path forward. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) skills have been a huge help to me this year, and they can be boiled down to two mega-skills: acceptance and change.

No matter what you want to achieve in life–no matter how much planning and hard work you do–accepting your reality on its own terms and making intentional changes are the two basic tools you have to make things happen. If you're open to it, the divine light inside you can be your guide.

As we close out 2023, I want to invite you to briefly let go of the challenges in front of you at the moment. Set them aside to reflect on what you’ve done over the past year and how you’re feeling about it. Open up to any messages your gut, your heart, your shadow, or the universe might have for you, big or small. Don’t pressure yourself to find specific answers, outline any SMART goals, or even think of this in terms of “productivity.” Seeking your truth is a worthy pursuit in itself.

That said, I’m standing by and ready to consult the cards with you!
