It’s time to let it go. It’s been fun, it’s been a great run, but I’m ready to move on, and it’s ready to let me go. The last year I’ve been grappling with it, letting it go that is. I mean, I paid for it, I own it, I trademarked the name – but I felt like it had started to hold me back. My baby had become my burden. So I thought I’d write about it – and ask you- do you have a baby that’s become a burden? An idea, a job, a skill that has served you but has simply, unquestionably, run its course? Are you still holding onto it as the end all be all? Or are you ready to let it be what it naturally is, a step on a course, a part of your evolution into the next phase of who you are?
When I first started thinking about letting it go the fear washed in. It had become so much a part of me, this organization, it had been my brand, a radio show, an amazing group of people bonded together by this one thing – this…ENTITY…because it really did take on a life of its own. And it was a good life. It was an exciting experience, it gave me the wings to no longer talk about “those experiences” in hushed tones, hoping no one else would hear in a crowded restaurant – but to encourage those conversations, lead them and help others accept them as their own. But after a while, after a wonderful ride, I became less excited, felt pulled to other ideas, theories that built on that foundation, but expanded up and onward. The word Psychic has never felt like the best fit for me personally – but it was a word that people heard and understood, they got it, for the most part. But this little seven letter word, it’s loaded.
What is right has evolved, and the pieces are falling into place, and it’s good. It’s the next step. Some of you already know all about it, and are already a part of it, some have come along from the Original Traveling Psychic Supper Club and are riding the wave into this new thing. Get ready for something new.
And if you feel led to – let me know what’s going on with you too, let’s share in this evolution together.

Dearest Deb, I’m so sorry that Traveling Psychic Supper Club has crossed over. Deep down, you have felt the urges but logic came up with many excuses to hang on. Now, you’re ready. May your next path that you step up lead you to exciting new adventures that advances you on all levels.
By the way, I may move to Houston, TX in the future. Hope to bump into you someday!
Cheers,
RaVen

RaVEn – Thank you for the wonderful note, I hope you are doing well, we need to catch up. Yes, TPSC has crossed over – I was getting overwhelmed with setting up dinners, running it as a “business” and promoting it- I know a lot of people just knows it as the blog, but there were so many moving pieces to it “on the ground” here and it was just me making all the plans, then running the website, coordinating dinners, working with clients has become much more of a priority – there just wasn’t enough time. Kelly came on with me for a while which was awesome – but his life changed and then he moved! And then on top of it, I just don’t feel very drawn to doing dinners in Austin so much anymore. So I was like…what am I doing? And I think more importantly…WHY? It felt like I was dragging a dead horse…and all these other interesting projects started coming in – I just had to let go of the old to make room for the new. And be happy for the experience. I’m still taking appointments and doing some really interesting consulting work, but running dinners and doing all the admin stuff, became too much for me.
I hope you are doing great – Keep me posted on the possible move. 🙂 – D

If you feel it’s time to gently put it to rest, then follow your heart. When I was hanging ornaments on my Christmas tree, I remember you gathered us all at my house with all the materials to make ornaments for those who lost their lives at Sandy Hook. I still have mine and hang them every year and that is just one of the loving , creative ideas you had and put into action! And the group readings we’d give and all the lovely people we met and the sizzle….. Thank you for all those fantastic memories.

Susan, Those were some great times, I still have those ornaments too. We had some great adventures, filming, the dinners, doing the Psyfecta readings…And of course Popping corks in the pool! Some other things are developing…I’ll fill you in – good things are brewing – We’ll talk 😉 XO Can’t wait to see you again
