Episode 49 - Tarot as a Mirror: Exploring Self-Reflection with Jenni Evans
In this episode, I sit down with Jenni for a grounded and insightful conversation about tarot—beyond predictions and mystique, and into its power as a tool for self-reflection. We explore how tarot can spark curiosity, deepen personal insight, and help us connect with our emotions and inner wisdom in a way that truly supports mental health and personal growth.
Jenni shares how she approaches tarot in her own practice, what the cards can reveal about patterns, coping, and intuition, and why so many people find the imagery and symbolism so validating. We talk about using tarot as a gentle check-in with yourself, a prompt for reflection, or simply an invitation to slow down and tune in.
And to wrap up the episode, Jenni gives me a mini reading—offering a real-time look at how tarot can open the door to clarity and meaningful conversation.
