This is the Good Neighbor Podcast, the place where local businesses and neighbors come together. Here's your host, Denise Taylor.
Speaker 2:Welcome to Mika Allen and Jen Chavez from Sacred Vibes in Virginia Beach. Thanks for being here.
Speaker 3:Here, Tell me tell me how you both came up with this business together, I'll let you take that side. Oh, let's see, tamika and I really just kind of kept running into one another at different places and we were basically we felt like magnets being pulled to one another at different places. Um, and we were basically we felt like magnets being pulled to one another. Um, actually, to make, I'd used to drive a lift and my husband was a lift driver and picked her up, probably what a year or two years ago.
Speaker 3:Yep, oh wow, and she was like you're gonna be seeing me again um?
Speaker 3:and literally a year later like when she and I started running into one another, exactly, um, and really got that magnetic pull to one another. Um, and then we just spent a lot of time together, um, and in that time that we spent together, our ancestors, our spirit guides, source universe, god, just basically gave us the message that we need to be working together to lift the collective. And it was like, okay, but what does that look like? You know, it's like, okay, here's this divine providence, but what do we do with it? Sure, and I want to say like, a couple months later, we were at my parents house and tamika was talking to my mom and I got this divine download from my great grandfather he is my guardian angel. Um, and I was literally in my head thinking, okay, like what do we do? And he said start with soap.
Speaker 4:And so happens, it just so happened. I was actually playing with soap, making soap for maybe about two years, just making it and giving it away. Okay, didn't understand why I I was guided to make it and I'm a very obedient person. I'm a psychic medium, as you know. So, listening to my ancestors and listening to the divine, they were like make soap Ridiculous idea, what do you mean? Make soap? I don't know how. So they taught me, they taught me everything I needed to know.
Speaker 4:I listened, I did it and it came out really well. It came out really well. It came out healing to the body, to the skin. It was all natural. So I was already doing soap. So when Jen mentioned it, I'm like okay, well, let's do this. Let's heal mind, body and spirit, let me heal the collective with you, because we definitely channel messages to heal people. Profoundly clairvoyant, have many gifts and I was already helping people. So it was like let's do this, let's do this as a business and let's share what we know and the knowledge that's being given to us, right? So that's how we started.
Speaker 2:Tamika share what? Because listeners may not know what is a psychic medium, a psychic medium I can tap into.
Speaker 4:we call it the 5D. The plane that we live on is the 3D, so a psychic medium. I the 5D. The plane that we live on is the 3D, so a psychic medium. I am able to tap in and speak to people that have passed away, so our loved ones. I call them our ancestors because they are. They're the ones that came before us, and even younger ones. I am able to tap and bridge the gap between the life, the living and the dead, as you would say. So I'm able to do that, and I also use tarot because it helps to calm my nerves, but it also is beautiful pictures and tells a very great story. So I mean, I'm able to do that, but I'm able to heal the collective.
Speaker 2:What is that? Tarot, tarot.
Speaker 4:It is an ancient thing. It's been around for many centuries. I want to say the first tarot cards were distributed back in the 1700s.
Speaker 3:Yeah 1700s.
Speaker 4:Okay, over in Europe, over in Europe. Tarot is very ancient, but it's a way for us to use a tool to bridge the gap between spirit to speak to us through the cards. There's many tools that you can use in divination pendulums. Some people channel through coffee grounds. Believe it or not, they get their messages through that. I myself being all the clairvoyance, as you may say, I'm able to channel to get a message I'm able to channel to get a message.
Speaker 4:I'm able to see spirit and I'm also able to read tarot, which is amazing. I mean, it's pretty fun.
Speaker 2:So if somebody is also healing. So if somebody does come to you, they can do several things. Or do you do several things?
Speaker 4:OK, it's all about just what you communicate to me, and I'm going to tell you what I'm hearing, because most of us walk around with people that we love and people that we didn't even know, that are our ancestors, that walk with us and guide us in our protecting us. Okay, so immediately, if I come into contact with someone via online or in person, no matter what way it is, even over the phone, I immediately will pick up on whoever's trying to communicate with them and I'm able to give them that message. I'm also able to tell people when they have ailments or aches or pains and what that may be and what it looks like, and how and what steps they need to take to get to the next level, to heal that.
Speaker 2:Ok, and then, Jen, what do you do in terms of services?
Speaker 3:So I connected with. I also connect with my angels and ancestors. Obviously, being with Tamika, my own healing journey has kind of like accelerated because we are divinely guided and our spirit team working together. So it's us working together. But I do a lot of the essential oil blends that we sell and a lot of that started with you know, family members, tamika, like you know just people that were feeling pain but don't want to take over the counter medication. I want to take prescribed medication because of all the stuff that that does to your liver. So I really started researching plants and essential oils and that's how I started creating. I started creating in that vein. But I am also growing in my psychic mediumship so I, like Tamika, can hear, see, feel. We are generally out in public and we can. We run into people and we get this weird shoulder pain that we know we didn't have and so we kind of have to stop and say that out loud or address that to that person.
Speaker 2:So what can people expect if they contact you, like what?
Speaker 4:I want to tell you straight up expect the unexpected, because it's whatever the divine and the universe wants you to know at that time. I'm totally open and honest. I believe my readings can be emotional at times. Most people that come into contact with me have a breakthrough moment and I deal with a lot of people that are ascending, that are gifted but have kept their gifts under wraps or don't even know how to operate in them. So I have a lot of people that come to me for that and I help them with that. I educate them, I help mentor them through and get them to the next level of their next ascension. People that come to me for readings to contact loved ones they leave with a sense of fulfillment and wholeness and healing, because when people leave this earth it hurts us. So we want to know our loved ones are happy and they're healthy and they're fine, even in the spiritual realm. So'm to be able to bridge that gap. That's the ultimate for me.
Speaker 4:So people need to come with an open mind, come with an open mind, come with an open heart, because we lead with love on every angle. Yes, that's the ultimate healer right there and um, just be open to the unexpected, because I can tell you right now, the spiritual realm is very unpredictable, very, very much so unpredictable, and you never know what you're gonna get. But it's always. You leave it with a full heart and always feeling much better than you did when you stepped in.
Speaker 2:Speaking to that, what do you think are some of the misconceptions of your practice?
Speaker 4:The misconceptions I think I hear a lot is we're not real, that what we're doing is mystical, like I'm Harry Potter's little sister. I've heard that before. I've heard that I'm crazy'm not crazy. I come from a family Of very gifted people and it's we are healers and I stand in that power. So I mean, the misconception is that we don't work With God.
Speaker 2:That's the biggest thing, that this is like a devil I definitely work with.
Speaker 4:God.
Speaker 3:Trust me.
Speaker 4:My nickname in the in in virginia beach is tamika the earth angel. That's what everyone calls me. So I mean, I definitely believe wholeheartedly in the power of our angels and our archangels. I work very closely with them and they're the ones that we, they're the ones that we call, they're the ones that we call on, we call on for everything.
Speaker 3:but it's not even just that. When we're creating our products, they're the ones that are telling us what needs to go in. So you think you know two drops of essential oil? Oh no, you need like four drops, okay. So it's that kind of stuff. I mean, we, we live and breathe and exist with our spirit teams, with our gods.
Speaker 4:And yet the product's amazing. We created a new salve that has been very healing, also created some turmeric face masks. Turmeric and raw honey Everything is all natural. So when people read in the Bible that medicine will come from the earth, yes, and raw honey, everything is all natural. So when people read in the Bible that medicine will come from the earth, yes, it will, and we work with that. So it's all about healing the mind, body and spirit in an all natural way.
Speaker 2:So you do have physical products that people can purchase. Oh, yes, most definitely.
Speaker 4:I call it the lab. That's what I call our kitchen.
Speaker 2:You would make recommendations to people after meeting.
Speaker 4:Most definitely Our oatmeal soaps are great for eczema, any type of itchy red skin, any psoriasis, anything like that it's going to heal it. It's going to calm that inflammation down. Heal it. It's going to calm that inflammation down. We have ourselves, like I said, I work with a lot of different healing property flowers and essential oil blends, right down to the herbs that we use in our stuff.
Speaker 4:It's just amazing and to hear people come back and give feedback on oh my God, I had such bad skin and blotches and as soon as I started using your turmeric and honey so all of that cleared up within a seven day period or my son had really bad eczema and now we're not dealing with those flare ups as bad I'm not dealing with. Amazing. And I had a lady tell me I gave her some of our hemp salve for a bruise and she told me the next day she immediately called me extremely happy it is gone. It's gone and I'm like what? Like I'm shocked. I'm I'm immediately shocked because it's like wow, being obedient and listening to what they told me to put in it, this actually works. That's amazing and it's affordable. We don't go at a price that's too high for anybody. We're not here to hurt your pockets. We're here to heal your body.
Speaker 2:Jen, can you share one of the life challenges or hardships that you've rose above and this business has been a part of?
Speaker 3:above, and this business has been a part of. I want to say, obviously every starting business has hiccups along the way and I think with Tamika and I, because of who we're surrounded with, we give ourselves the grace to feel whatever we're feeling through that moment, but to know that all is well, everything is really working out for our highest good. As long as we stay in the positive, you can acknowledge what's negatively going on around you, but I think as long as you are centered and grounded, you yourself are going to be able to get through that. I don't think there's really anything in our lives that we've looked at and gone. I didn't get through that Like. You know what I mean. Like you're on the other side and you got through it.
Speaker 3:So it really is about being grounded, being intentional as well. I know that when I wake up in the morning, sometimes right Like, I've got aches and pains or whatever it is, regardless of what's going on in your life, if you set the intention for yourself that you're going to have a great day, you might have a great day right Like. So why not open yourself up to the positivity of life instead of really focusing on oh, I don't have any money. I don't have enough. I don't have money for Christmas presents or whatever. It is Right Like that, what you go through is how you go through it.
Speaker 2:How you go through it Right. It's the reaction and how we proceed with information or things.
Speaker 4:Right, right. So I want to. I want to attract good. So, no matter what's going on, I'm going to put out good Right.
Speaker 2:I love that. It's a great attitude. What is one thing you wish our listeners would know about your business?
Speaker 4:you wish our listeners would know about your business. The one thing I want them to know is to try us out. Yeah, check us out. Check us out. See what we got to offer you, no matter what it may be a bar of soap, a reading, a healing session. No matter what it may be, try us out, you might be pleasantly surprised.
Speaker 2:Yes, believe you will be typically. How long is this session with you? If they come in to typically most sessions?
Speaker 4:last about 30 minutes to 45 minutes. Okay, it's supposed to be 30, but I let spirit move and move me in a direction. It's not all about the money all the time, right, yeah, so it's what spirit wants me to do. If the message push forward, I'm going to push forward with it.
Speaker 2:And do people meet with you in person or online? Some do.
Speaker 4:When I do the local shows in the area, most people will come out. They'll. They'll follow us on social media and come out and see me there face to face, but most time is FaceTime and our Instagram or Facebook video and our Instagram or Facebook video.
