We had the good fortune of connecting with Emily the Mystic and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Emily, is there something that you feel is most responsible for your success?
The most important factor behind my success and the success of my brand is AUTHENTICITY. I choose to show up on my social media accounts as my 100% true authentic self. I am very passionate about sharing my story, my spiritual journey, and my process of starting a spiritual business including all of the ups and downs, the wins and the tough moments. I believe it is SO important that I share my journey of being a real person and a real “human” with my community, because they can relate to me and see that I go through the same struggles that they do. Being in the spiritual space, it can be easy to meditate all day, float around in the clouds, and not want to come back down to earth. It can also be easy to hide behind a mask on social media and not be willing to speak your truth, share your voice, and speak to what you’re passionate about. But what really creates community, and what has been at the heart of my success, is sharing the real me and showing up exactly as I am.

What should our readers know about your business?

My business and brand, Emily the Mystic, helps my clients to squeeze as much juice, joy, and excitement out of life as possible so that they can really enjoy every moment of their time here on earth! I do this with different spiritual modalities, everything from: Akashic Records Coaching & Mentoring (accessing my client’s record of their soul by using my psychic senses and connecting them to their soul’s wisdom), Mediumship (to speak with loved ones on the other side), Energy Healing (to balance and align the chakras), and Psychic Development Coaching (to teach them how to tap into their own intuitive gifts).

When I was a child, I absolutely loved all things mystical and magical. I would read every book I could get my hands on about spiritual topics, and I would spend hours chatting with my “imaginary” friends and writing letters to the fairies. My love for spirituality continued in college and later in life as I developed a passion for yoga, astrology, tarot cards, and other spiritual outlets. I never considered that it could be a full-time career…

Fast-forward to building my business. My business and career did not start out this way! My career started as a buyer for a major Fortune 500 Retail company. I used to buy home decor items for retail shopping! I worked for this company for over 5 years, before I realized that something was missing, and it didn’t feel like I was on the right path anymore. At the beginning of 2020 (pre-pandemic), I was passionate about holistic health coaching and began studying for a personal training certification. On the side of my corporate job, I began coaching clients to take care of their physical body. Along the way, I began using my psychic and intuitive gifts to help my health coaching clients. I took a variety of courses and classes to learn about mediumship, and all things spiritual. As I infused my own personal learning and experience in my business, it took off! I quit my corporate job at the beginning of 2021 and transitioned my business to focus on spiritual healing.

It has been all about following the breadcrumbs for me on my journey! As I look back, I realize that all of the puzzle pieces for me were there very early on in childhood. It has been the coolest process on my spiritual journey to be led back to who I am at a soul level. And to see that I can use my spiritual gifts to help others has been the absolute most rewarding thing in the world!

I excel at helping my clients discover and re-connect to who they are at a soul level, while opening and unlocking their soul’s divine gifts. Through working with me, my clients discover that they have all the answers that they need within themselves, and they feel empowered to make decisions in life while being fully supported by the universe. By unlocking their own intuitive gifts, my clients feel inspired to make major changes and shifts in life, so that they can feel fully aligned with who they are and who they are meant to be.


Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I live in Philadelphia, PA and I am obsessed with this city! It’s the perfect mix of historical charm, arts and culture galore, hip up-and-coming neighborhoods, tons of amazing food, and a thriving music scene. Our day would start with a walking tour of Old City, to honor the historical traditions and energy of the city. Next, we would head to Reading Terminal Market for lunch. After that, we would wander around the Art Museum and enjoy beautiful views of Boathouse Row. Next, we would head to a local brewery to sample some delish drinks at happy hour. Finally, we would end the day in Fishtown at a super cool restaurant and then head to see live music at a local venue.


Who else deserves some credit and recognition?

I have so many incredible people in my life that I would like to give recognition to:

1.) My family members for supporting me, believing in me, and loving me even when becoming an entrepreneur didn’t always make the most logical sense.

2.) Jack, my partner of 6 years, for being my #1 cheerleader every step of the way.

3.) My Incredible mentors (you know who you are!) who have helped to shape this journey, guide me, teach me, and pave the way for my success.

4.) My superstar clients, who are always encouraging me to grown, to learn more, and to evolve as a mentor.
