Philosophy & Story

Intuition lives in every room you've ever walked into.

"The boardroom and the tarot table require the same skill: the courage to trust what you're reading in the room."

My name is David. Before this work, I spent over a decade in corporate sales, talent management, and consulting — helping businesses grow and leaders find their edge. I was good at it. And I often felt something was missing.

That changed with a tarot reading at Cosmic Tea in Denver. What started as curiosity became a path I couldn't ignore. I realized that the skills I'd built in corporate environments — reading people, sensing energy in a room, knowing when something was off before anyone said it — were the same skills that made me a gifted tarot reader.

Intuition isn't a spiritual concept exclusive to candle-lit rooms. It's the thing that made you hesitate before signing that contract. The signal you dismissed in that meeting. The knowing you couldn't explain. My work is about helping you stop dismissing it.

Whether we work through coaching, a tarot reading, or you're learning to read yourself — the invitation is the same: live aligned.
