Katie's experience reveals how personal tragedies can redefine one's notion of success and lead to a life of purpose and healing.“I didn't have time, in my opinion, to research this thing.... anything. So thankfully that friend told me: Seimei and I went that night to check it out. I walked into the room and I had this inner knowing I was home, and I felt enveloped in love in the room and I was like, wow, what is this?” - Katie FascianoSome takeaways:-Learn to lean on your network. Katie shared that her life changed when her young daughter, Elizabeth, was diagnosed with cancer. Katie had always been self-reliant, paying her way through college, and at times working both a full AND part-time job. As a result of her daughter’s diagnosis, she became a full-time caregiver and had to learn to reach out to her network for both emotional as well as financial help.-When you are researching new ideas, notice your inner knowing in addition to your outer knowing. After her daughter’s cancer came back a third time, Katie decided to see if there was something else out there that could complement the traditional medicine her daughter was receiving. She attended an open night to learn about Seimei, and immediately felt an inner knowing, a feeling of being enveloped by love upon walking into the room.-Notice the parallels between roles you’ve played, and new roles you’re considering. Katie had been a CPA professionally for many years. She noted the parallel between the level of detail required for that role, and the level of detail required to be a Seimei practitioner. She also mentioned the similarities between Roman Catholicism, the religion she practices, and some rituals of Seimei, which is a Japanese way of healing.About the Guest: Katie is a trained Level IV Seimei practitioner.
