HOW MY JOURNEY BEGAN

Hello, I am Jennifer Ledermann, the owner of Rising Above the Darkness, LLC.  

I was born an empath and possess strong intuitive and clairvoyant abilities. My mother reminds me often that when I was little I would approach strangers offering my assistance.  People called me a knower, healer, and helper.

I began telepathically communicating with my paternal grandparents that had passed around the age of 5. I saw my first apparition, my grandfather, when I was 8 or 9 years old.  Friends, while growing up, were often freaked out about my premonitions and things I just "knew".  I have been working with oracles and runes for over 30 years and have read countless spiritual and New Age books.

I married my best friend in 2001, and was blessed with two beautiful daughters.  Unfortunately, in 2016, the marriage ended.  It was then, at my darkest moment, I found solace in reconnecting to spiritual energy. I began training with Vickie Evans from Old World Wisdom and became a Reiki Master.  My growth and interest in energy work opened the invitation to train in Peruvian Andes and Celtic Shamanism.  

These experiences have helped me to heal childhood trauma and wounds from past relationships.  I am able to create a journey of health and vitality that will guide me into my future.  I'm hoping my wisdom and experiences can help others begin living an authentic life and transmute their darkness into light.
