Daily Inspiration: Meet Nathaniel & Kelly Epting

Today we’d like to introduce you to Nathaniel & Kelly Epting.

Hi Nathaniel & Kelly, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
Long before we got married (or even dated for that matter) we were friends who shared a common interest in spirituality and self discovery.

We were two wayfarers navigating their way through the world looking for grounded and open-minded practices, that also taught you how to learn the really cool stuff like: mediumship, channeling, out-of-body experiences, and energy work. And along the way, we fell in love.

After 15+ years of seeking, learning, practicing, and navigating some really whacky waters all around the world, (Oh yeah! We also got married.) we’ve paved a clear path forward from all that knowledge and experience, and hope to share it with like-minded people!

Throughout it all, we’ve always been a packaged deal. So we figured… why stop now? Hence, Modern Monks was born.

Looking back, one of the wildest themes we’ve seen in our lives has been how we balance and support each other in a way that makes spiritual development more possible. Even when we were just friends out of college, we’ve always been aimed in the same direction, yet approached things from different angles…and usually opposite ones at that!

With spirituality, Kelly has always come from a place of natural talents and instincts. She’s always been incredibly empathetic and sensitive to energies. Experiences unfolded for her whether she liked it or not. What she lacked in control, she made up for with talent.

On the other hand, Nathaniel has always been in search of methods that deliver on their ability to provide consistent access to spiritual experiences. His thirst for knowledge opened many doors for him. What he lacked in raw potential, he made up for with research, knowledge, and determination.

So by the time we met, it was like the perfect storm. His knowledge grounded her gifts, and her gifts provided new opportunities and perspectives for him to learn. We found that our growth exponentially increased when we worked as a team, and doors began opening for us! And not just spiritually, but personally as well.

In time, growing in these intimate and personable ways with each other definitely sparked an attraction that brought us even closer together. And the closer we got, the more our spiritual growth became the shared focus of our lives. Now happily married, that’s truer now than ever before.

I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
We found that there has always been a balance between spiritual growth, intentional practice, and self discovery that leads to further potential. Too often, we collectively tend to neglect one for the others, but it’s really the blend of them all that leads to success!

It wasn’t enough to just focus on our spiritual and intuitive skills, we had to focus on whatever life lesson was showing up as well. And in the process of working with that life lesson, the skill itself would develop more.

“You” are the consistent element in all spiritual practices, so you can’t separate yourself from them.

As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
Kelly is a trained trance channeler with over 15 years of experience, and a lifetime of talking to Spirit. She’s passionate about channeling her two master guides for others, so they can bring guidance and healing directly to you as if you were talking to a wise friend. She currently offers private trance channeling sessions, as well as a series of free online workshops that are taught entirely by her two guides.

Although Kelly has also extensively studied other spiritual practices like qigong, mediumship, tarot reading, etc. and has a huge interest in altered states through meditation, Monroe focus states, and formal Buddhist practices, she’s truly found her calling with trance channeling. It’s why she continue to hone her trance abilities with mentorship programs with the likes of Tony Stockwell, Andrej Djordjevitch, and other teachers at Arthur Findlay College.

Being able to connect people to the greater wisdom that comes directly from Spirit has been the greatest joy of her life!

Nathaniel is a meditation coach for developing mediums who are struggling to get out of their heads and trust themselves. Having been on his spiritual journey for over 15 years, he’s passionate about using meditation techniques to help practitioners learn how to cultivate spiritual abilities. He teaches the FLOW Method, which combines meditation, mindfulness, and flow states to get you out of your head, trust yourself, and improve your connection to Spirit.

He’s deeply fascinated by the mystic arts. He’s sat over 70 days in formal meditation retreats, is a graduate of the Monroe Institutes Gateway Voyage program, become a certified reiki master, is an advanced qigong practitioner, and continues to develop his intuition, mediumship, and ability to astral travel. He loves to empower others seeking spiritual growth to connect with the greater reality, so they can have their own “Aha!” moments that bring lasting insight, transformation, and well-being.

We’d love to hear about how you think about risk taking?
Honestly, I think one of the biggest risks we ever made was choosing to go into a non-physical field like this professionally!

There’s nothing we do that reflects your average 9-5 daily grind.

We love traveling to new places to learn about different cultures and their spiritual practices, we meditate regularly and are always looking for new retreat opportunities to learn and grow, and in the meanwhile, have to run and market a functional business!

Every day is a risk and an adventure for us, but the joy and alignment we feel doing this is worth all the “unknowns.” To us, taking a risk is what moves you outside of your comfort zone and allows for magical opportunities to happen.
