What happens when intuition collides with everyday life? Kathryn Brewer’s memoir, Not Your Mother’s Mystic, invites readers into the messy, miraculous journey of awakening that doesn’t fit inside the neat categories we’re handed.

Part personal story, part cultural shake-up, and part invitation to rethink what’s possible, her book blends sharp honesty with moments of the mystical that can’t be ignored.

At its core, Not Your Mother’s Mystic is about breaking free from the hand-me-down narratives of who you’re “supposed” to be. She writes with wild conviction, pulling back the curtain on experiences that range from uncanny synchronicities to evidential mediumship.

But this isn’t a tale of floating above reality; it’s about grounding those experiences in the grit and humor of daily life.

Come curious, and leave with your sense of the possible stretched a little wider.
