Reading the Room: Energy and Astrology with Jaclyn Carmen
Artist, astrologer, and Ahai Energy Healer Jaclyn Carmen joins me for a conversation on burnout, intuition, and the energy we carry into every room we enter. After spending more than a decade in the corporate world in New York City, Jaclyn found herself deeply exhausted and living in a space that worked against her well-being. Burnout became the turning point that pushed her toward a completely new path.
Today she blends art, healing, and astrology to help people understand their own energy and create environments that support them. This episode explores the connection between our surroundings, our intuition, and the emotional cues we often ignore.
What We Cover
From Corporate Burnout to Creative Healing
Jaclyn shares how her life looked successful from the outside yet felt misaligned underneath. Her move from a windowless NYC apartment to a high-vibe life in Miami gave her the clarity she needed to start over.
What Ahai Energy Healing Really Is
She explains what happens in a session, why it is both meditative and conversational, and how energy work became the catalyst for her own transformation.
How to Read the Room
Jaclyn breaks down how she learned to read the energy of a space during her corporate years and how anyone can do this in everyday life. She explains how to recognize whether an emotion is yours or something you are picking up from others.
Designing Your Space with Intention
We talk about scent, sound, light, and the little shifts that change the way a room feels. She shares how she prepares her environment for painting, healing sessions, and intuitive work.
Astrology as an Energetic Roadmap
Jaclyn explains why your chart is far more than your sun sign, how astrology validated the parts of herself she once downplayed, and how she uses it as an energetic “weather report” for decision making.
How Astrology Can Inform Your Home
One of the most fascinating parts of our conversation: the connection between your birth chart and the style, mood, and energy you naturally crave in your home.
Listen to the Episode
This conversation is a powerful reminder that your energy and your environment are always in dialogue. When you learn to read the room, you learn to read yourself.
