Hi There! I’m Maia Skye, a single mom, spiritual seeker, and writer on a mission to live my most authentic life. If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably had moments when you looked in the mirror and wondered, “Who am I really, and how did I get here?” For me, those questions have been at the heart of my journey.
My spiritual side and journey truly began to come alive after reading John Edward’s book Infinite Quest in 2019. At the time, my relationship was struggling, but I held onto it because of my children. Growing up, I internalized the belief that I couldn’t let my son grow up with separated parents. My bonus daughter, whose mother has been absent from her life, added another layer of complexity. She was only nine years old when I started to realize my relationship with her father wasn’t working. The thought of leaving her was heartbreaking because I wasn’t her legal parent, and I feared losing her—which is exactly what happened. But that’s a story for another time.
During that period, I convinced myself that my happiness wasn’t important. I told myself that sticking it out for the kids was the right thing to do. I’ve always been curious about life after death and enjoyed astrology, but growing up in a household without spiritual beliefs, I hadn’t explored my own feelings deeply. Infinite Quest changed that. It opened my eyes to new possibilities and sparked a hunger for understanding. From there, I dove into meditation, lucid dreaming, and learning about spirituality wherever I could.
Then came 2020 and the coronavirus pandemic. You might think being stuck at home would give me more time to focus on self-discovery, but it only amplified the disconnect in my relationship. By then, I’d been sleeping on the couch for nearly a year. We barely spoke and disagreed on almost everything. It became clear that my children—witnessing the sadness, tension, and lack of joy in our household—were growing up in an environment far from what I wanted for them. I didn’t want them to think our relationship was what love should look like.
After months of soul-searching and internal conflict, I made the decision to leave. It wasn’t easy, and for a while, I fell off my spiritual journey. But in 2022, I returned to it with renewed determination.
This blog is the result of that journey. It’s a space where I'll share my thoughts on personal growth, spiritual practices, and navigating the challenges of motherhood. Here, you can expect to find reflections on my spiritual awakening, the ups and downs of single parenting, and practical advice for integrating mindfulness into daily life. I’ll also explore topics like astrology, journaling, and self-discovery—all tools that have helped me reclaim my happiness and purpose.
Whether you’re here to explore your own journey, find inspiration, or connect with someone who gets it, I’m so glad you’re here. Together, we’ll delve into what it means to live authentically and pursue the life we truly want. Let’s walk this path together, one step at a time.
