Once upon a time I moved to Los Angeles to pursue an acting career. 
A friend asked me, "If you weren't an actor, what else would you want to be? " 
My (immediate, as if it was a thing) answer:
"A traveling philosopher."
 ◆
Years later, while working as an actor and venting to a friend 
about how unfulfilled I felt ​in my chosen career, she asked, 
"Well, what do you REALLY want to do? "
My (surprising at the time) answer:
"I want to inspire people. I want to wake them up and remind them of who they really are."
◆
A couple of spiritually expansive years after that, a first date inquired,
"What do you spend most of your time doing?"
My (totally honest) answer:
"Going on long walks and taking photos of flowers. Writing down what comes to me."
◆
In recent times, when a new acquaintance asks the inevitable,
"So what do you do? "
My (super excited to answer) answer:
"I'm an intuitive."
"A what? "
"A spiritual coach who reads and perceives energy.
I work with people who feel stuck or confused about some aspect of their lives. 
I remind them of their personal power. 
​I reconnect them to their own intuitive knowing. 
​I help them find clarity."
"Oh. Cool."
