✨ Show notes & links: https://mariasaraphina.com/lorimenna ✨ Today I am joined by Lori Menna, the aquarian visionary and stellar soul behind Cosmic Collage©, a sacred fusion of spirit, symbolism, and soul-infused design. With over 25 years of professional experience as a graphic artist and web designer, Lori has cultivated a rich body of work that includes three published oracle decks with Hay House and her own self-published deck, The Energetics of Color. Her creative journey is deeply intertwined with her healing path, rooted in the belief that the act of creation is sacred—an inherently human endeavor meant to be guided by integrity and authenticity. On top of work working with private clients Lori has also opened herself up as a mentor and offers both mentorships, classes and a membership for those called to her work. I'm not exactly sure when, but Lori popped into my instagram feed one day and I was completely enamoured by her incredible work where she channels energetic frequencies into visual form, creating artwork that is both aesthetically captivating and vibrationally healing - and deeply deeply felt if you ask me. Lori views her creative gift as a transmission from the spirit world, one that she honors through intentional artistry and earth-conscious living. Furthermore - guided by a strong inner compass and a passion for restoring harmony in an imbalanced world, Lori brings a sense of purpose and justice into every project. In this Sacred Conversation you'll hear Lori share and us talk about the good, the bad and the ugly of her journey with spirituality which Lori shares openly and honestly. Come sit by the fire Radiant One and allow this powerful transmission to stir your inner waters… Big hug and loads of love. xo, Maria Saraphina CONNECT HERE:  👉🏻 Instagram: https://mariasaraphina.com/insta 👉🏻 LinkedIn: https://mariasaraphina.com/li 👉🏻 Website: https://mariasaraphina.com 👉🏻 YouTube: https://mariasaraphina.com/yt
