How I see spirit in the Olympics
Feb 09, 2026
Hello lovey,
I’ve been watching the Olympics this past week and it got me thinking about how spirit moves through us in different ways.
Now I’m not going to share any spoilers (so if you haven’t watched anything yet, breathe easy), but I wanted to talk about the magic of humans coming together.
I grew up as an athlete. I was a competitive synchronized swimmer (now called artistic swimming) for most of my childhood and then I played club water polo and club rugby in college.
I was—BY NO MEANS—an Olympic caliber athlete.
But I remember the feeling of being in a competition and the exhilarating energy in that space, especially when we were winning or when the competition was close.
Watching the Olympics brings me right back to that feeling.
Now that I’m older I realize that that feeling is spirit vibrating through that competitive space.
I believe we can all feel it—specifically in global games like the Olympics where the world is watching athletes experience excellence and success through intense determination, perseverance and, often, hardship.
This form of global unity makes me think of the crown chakra.
The crown chakra is located at the top of the head and it is the gateway to divine connection.
When that chakra is blocked, our sense of connectedness is diminished.
Cynicism, isolation, depression, individualism and skepticism can run high.
However, when the crown chakra is open, spinning beautifully, and balanced, then you experience a sense of wonder, joy, and oneness.
When this chakra is balanced, you understand that we are all connected: humans, animals, plants, oceans… everything.
When I watch the Olympics, this big global community with all our beautiful differences starts to meld together into one big family for me.
When I see athletes triumph in a skill they’ve been mastering for YEARS, when I see their teammates and coaches and families and friends JUMP up and down in celebration of them and what they’ve accomplished, I empathically feel it.
Can you feel it?
I truly believe that that’s spirit.
It doesn’t matter who wins to me—it really doesn’t.
It’s in the process of coming together that you can feel the energy of belief, support, encouragement, care, kindness, gratitude, appreciation, love and wonder that fills these games.
And it’s these feelings that remind me that spirit is everywhere.
I hope you get a chance to watch these athletes do incredible and seemingly impossible things, not only to feel that sense that spirit is connecting all of us, but to be in the energy of watching others fully live out their dreams and potential.
If you’ve been waiting to live out your relationship dreams, I’m doing a 1:1 Flash Sale this Wednesday and Thursday.
You can do a 1:1 session with me for $95 (normally $195) where I’ll do a psychic reading into the most pressing issue for you, an Emotion Code® clearing, and an advanced technique that I only use with my VIP clients.
Last fall when I did a flash sale they went like hotcakes and we sold out fast.
Set an alarm now to get your session this Wednesday.
The sale starts online at 8am PST. (You’ll get an email from me.)
Now I’m off to watch the Olympics. š
