Lori Spagna LIVE EVENTS at Spirit Fest Sarasota

At Spirit Fest Sarasota, Lori Ann Spagna brings live experiences to Sarasota County Fairgrounds & Robarts Arena. A bestselling author, speaker, spiritual catalyst, intuitive multi-dimensional channel, mentor, animal communicator, energy healer, and visionary, she is known for channeled ascension guidance, intuitive insights, animal communication, sacred energy healing, dormant DNA activations, and divine transmissions that support both people and animals. She channels The Collective, a group of nonphysical beings that includes ascended masters, divine goddesses, angels, teachers, loved ones, animal kingdom collectives, star family races, interstellar beings, and others in the nonphysical realms. A featured two-hour channeling session is open to ages 13 and older. Every attendee requires a ticket. The price is $33 and it does not include admission. There is also a free presentation titled “Meditation and Mindset,” which focuses on connecting with the higher self and a supportive divine team, awakening extrasensory abilities and intuition, receiving clear guidance for oneself and animal companions, healing core wounds and outdated karmic patterns, activating dormant DNA, and using energy to elevate well-being, joy, abundance, health, and even business.
