Hi, I'm Emma.

I believe the most meaningful life you'll ever create is the one that grows from trusting yourself.

Through my writing and one-on-one tarot readings, I create spaces for unconventional women to slow down, pay attention, and take the next intentional step toward greater freedom and joy.

If you've always felt a little different, I have a feeling you're one of my people.

For most of my adult life, I've been fascinated by one question:

How do we learn to trust ourselves?

This question is deeply personal to me.

I've always been a little unconventional. Curious. Creative. I saw the world differently from the family, religion, and school I grew up in, and no matter how hard I tried, I never quite fit into the molds I was given.

I didn't receive much encouragement to be myself. Instead, I learned to look outside myself for answers and to question my own instincts. Like so many unconventional women, I slowly became disconnected from my own inner wisdom.

My healing journey began in my late twenties, when I realized that trusting other people's voices more than my own was leading me into relationships, careers, and situations that weren't healthy for me—and sometimes were outright dangerous.

So I began the slow work of finding my way back to myself.

I read books about intuition and self-empowerment. I became a life coach. I discovered tarot, mythology, meditation, cacao rituals, creativity, and the practice of paying attention. More than anything, I began to understand that healing wasn't about becoming someone different.

It was about becoming more fully myself.

I'm so grateful I chose that path. When I began this journey, my soul was withering in work and relationships that weren't right for me. Twenty years later, I can honestly say my soul feels nourished by the life I've created.

Of course, life still brings new challenges, but today, I trust myself enough to meet those challenges with curiosity instead of fear, knowing there's always a path forward.

That's why I'm so passionate about helping unconventional women trust themselves, follow their intuition, and create lives of greater freedom and joy.

A few things you should know about me...

I always have a book in my hands. Reading isn't just a hobby for me—it's one of the ways I make sense of the world. That's why I created the Wondrous Liminal Reading Room, where we read slowly, reflect deeply, and let good books change us.

I'm a writer. Sunday mornings are for the Wondrous Liminal Dispatch, where I share stories from my own journey toward greater self-trust. And somewhere in the background, I'm almost always thinking about a novel that's asking to be written.

I'm a tarot reader. I don't believe the cards tell us what to do. I believe they help us hear ourselves more clearly. Every reading is an invitation to pause, pay attention, and discover the next intentional step.

I'm an American living in Portugal. I fell in love with the tiled streets, the ocean, and the slower rhythm of life. I'm also slowly learning Portuguese. Bom dia! Obrigada!

I'm endlessly curious about the mystical side of life. Tarot, intuition, mythology, ritual—I follow my curiosity wherever it leads, always asking the same question: Does this help us trust ourselves more deeply?

If that question stirs something in you, I have a feeling you're one of my people.

Welcome.

“Emma’s made the healing journey we walk through so much fun. She brings love, light, play, and joy to the process.”

—Kim Hamblin

“Do you know the phrase - when the student is ready, the teacher appears? Well that has been a key theme throughout my life. As I’ve sojourned my way through my life, at each stop along the way I’ve found a great mentor, teacher, guide, supporter. Emma has been that for me for several years, more intensely these past three as I’ve been a member of her weekly seasonally themed self exploration community - the Soul Nourishment Circle. Emma is such a wonderful guide - she knows the path and has set a course for us to journey.  She creates an incredibly safe space and weaves her own personal love of oracle cards, astrology, plant medicine and so much more into our weekly soul nourishment endeavor. And one of the great things is that she goes on the journey too. It’s a great way to learn, seeing your mentor and teacher do the work herself. Our Soul Nourishment Circle has become a tight knit, incredibly supportive community and that is because of Emma’s intuitive and kind leadership.”

—Kendall Lankford

“I’ve been journeying seasonally with Emma Veritas in her Soul Nourishment Circle since Spring 2024. Emma is a deeply intuitive guide with immense integrity who creates a safe, grounded, and expansive space for mystical exploration and integration. She weaves her connection with the sacred plant medicine cacao into these ten-week intensives, blending it beautifully with her oracle wisdom, love of writing and reflection, and skillful meditation practices. Emma’s clear energetic and psychic boundaries allow participants to fully surrender and explore their inner realms, trusting that a highly skilled facilitator is tending the circle with care and intention. I wholeheartedly recommend Emma Veritas and her transformative offerings.”
