I first met with Rachel back in September for my first ever tarot reading. Three months later, now approaching the new year, I never thought I'd be in the place where I'm at right now, and I can be nothing else but grateful. TOTEM isn't just a one-time tarot card reading. This is something way more, way deeper, of course, only if you allow yourself to go deeper. I started off here in an insecure place. I moved across the country back home to Chicago, had gotten out of a 3.5 year relationship, an had no f'ing idea who I was anymore, or really, what my value was anymore. I wanted to find comfort and change, as I'm sure we all are to an extent. Found TOTEM on Yelp & scheduled a meeting with Rachel. I've gone to psychics in the past so I had a notion of what I'd be walking into. Rachel exceeded those expectations. She's totally normal and is pretty hilarious. Not only did her reading give me guidance for what was to come, but I especially appreciate the fact that you can email her at ANY time, with any question or crazy yet beautiful life things you need to share with someone. Now, if you truly want to dig deeper, even the least bit (and I'm sure you all do if you're reading this already), I strongly recommend for all of you to take part in TOTEM's Shamanic Journeying workshops hosted at Sat Nam Yoga in Chicago. This, my friends, is the difference between TOTEM and any other typical psychic/medium/astrology etc. work. TOTEM provides the constant support & foundation to grow wherever you are at in your spiritual journey. Each workshop series has a different theme/focus. For example, October's was a past life reconnection, December was focused on healing, and this upcoming one in January which I'm SO excited for is to channel your inner divine goddess/god. And I promise you do not need any previous experience or even need to know what the f to do walking in, because I sure didn't. You are welcomed by Rachel, Sat Nam, and the beautiful community this place and these workshops attract. Such a diverse crowd from all walks of life, coming together to experience your individual journeys together. There is only so much I can say. You really just need to experience this for yourself. Long story short (but not really), the more one & whole you are with yourself spiritually, the more the universe will provide. I've been able to heal the deepest of wounds I've repressed for the longest, I've excelled my spiritual journey, not only found stability but am kicking ass at life--I've been promoted at work, I'm meeting amazing people and creating loving & genuine friendships and relationships, and every single day I am constantly finding out more things about myself. This is all in just three months, friends. Allow yourself to receive what you deserve. Hope this helps. :) Thank you Rachel, TOTEM, Sat Nam, & community. read more

I first encountered Rachel during an episode of Nichole Bigley's podcast "A Psychic's Story." Her interview about the world of woo, dragon guides and flower essences resonated with me, hard. So, I did what any sane person would and binged ALL the episodes of her podcast "The Skeptical Shaman." Additionally, I ordered her flower essences and immediately noticed results. Next, I scheduled a tarot session with her, which was incredibly accurate. Afterward, I joined her guided group shamanic journey to meet my spirit animals. It was an incredible experience. I was hooked. If Rachel was making Kool-Aid, I was going to drink it. I felt drawn to her coaching program. Compelled. This was something I absolutely NEEDED to do for myself. This feeling of resonance with her humor, intellect, and skeptical approach began during that first podcast. However, during the program, I realized why I had resonated so much with her from the beginning. She is a scholar, a shaman, and a spiritual seeker - all things I admire and attempt to embody myself. Rachel intuitively guides your program. She has a talent for helping you uncover your latent talents and psychic gifts. She allows you to embody your true self and ultimately lets you determine the direction of the program. With Rachel's vast knowledge of corporate branding and a spiritual database of information, I was able to rebrand a business I had attempted to launch years earlier myself. Her encouragement and actionable goals allowed me to develop a brand and business model that I can be proud of - one that can grow as I grow on my spiritual journey. I am incredibly grateful for the insight she brought into the business aspect of my coaching program. Additionally, she provided a complete step-by-step strategy for trademarking my brand, which is something I never would have thought to do on my own. At the end of my 3-month program, I realized why I had felt compelled to work with Rachel. I was indeed spiritually transformed. I had evolved in several ways with Rachel's encouragement and assistance. I have made great strides forward in my spiritual life and reached some amazing milestones for my business. One of my favorite things that materialized during the program was daily meditation practice. This seemed to develop organically during the program, almost like a spiritual transformation side effect. Spiritual Transformation Coaching will look different for everybody, so I can't tell you what to expect during your program. But I highly recommend Rachel be your guide, mentor, spiritual wingman or coach on your journey toward your true self. If you want to level up in your life and empower yourself, sign up for her program. I look forward to taking the coaching program again in the future and can't wait for her next podcast! All my love Rachel, you are the best! read more

I started going to see Rachel back in March 2016. The first workshop I went to was a Totem Animal workshop. I knew nothing about totem animals or Rachel, but I love learning new things and I knew it had something to do with meditation so I figured what the heck. I was a little nervous since I didn't know anyone, but as soon as I walked in the energy was so calming and welcoming. Rachel took time to explain everything and provided a handout (she is such a wealth of knowledge) which was so helpful, and we began the workshop. Everyone's experience is different during Shamanic Journeying Meditation, but everyone felt comfortable and safe and had a positive experience. Time was built into the workshop to debrief after the meditation if you wanted to share, and I have to say it was fascinating. I enjoyed it so much, I have been to many workshops since that first time. She has a variety of different workshops and I still haven't been to all of them. The one on crystals is amazing too. She even gives you a crystal to take at the end of the workshop! I have also seen Rachel for private readings and Tarot readings several times. Rachel has helped me through some very difficult moments in my life. I trust her and everything she has said has been so accurate. She doesn't just tell you "what you want to hear"....she tells you what you need to know. She truly has a gift. She has also recently introduced me to Restorative Yoga that she does in her studio. During these unsettling times it's nice to have a safe space to go to. Rachel takes all of the necessary precautions with Covid19 and provides mats etc. and everything is sanitized. She also only allows a limited amount of people to ensure everyone is safe. So make sure to sign up early to get your spot! One of the things I love most about Rachel is that she truly wants to help people and teach people. If you're looking for someone who is going to tell you that you have a black aura and you just need to book sessions with them to the tune of $1500....(someone actually said that to me....and no, I did not do it. I know better) Rachel is NOT that gal! Rachel is the Shaman that after a workshop, private reading, or restorative yoga class, you can email and ask questions or tell her about an experience you may have had. She has always responded to every email I have sent, and usually provides guidance and references. If you are still reading this, you can obviously tell I think the world of Rachel. I would highly recommend that you give her a try. You won't be disappointed and you're welcome in advance! read more

I went to Rachel's recent shamanic journeying workshops at Sat Nam Yoga Center, and had such an amazing experience. Not only am I new to shamanic journeying, I am also new to meditating in general, so I was more than a little nervous. Rachel is so warm, funny and NICE, however, that I was immediately put at ease. Good news: you get to lay down for this meditation practice! I've always been turned off by the idea of sitting on the floor for long periods of time -- that doesn't seem very healthy to me at all -- so I was happy that we could lie down, and make ourselves comfortable for these workshops. They began with Rachel providing information about what we were doing, and what we might experience. And let me just say this -- Rachel is hilarious! I consider her to be the Amy Schumer of shamanic practitioners. She is also very professional, and makes an effort to be prompt, and to make every single person feel welcome and important. If you don't get a chance to share your experience with the class at the end of the workshop, Rachel asks that you email her to get her feedback (at no charge!). She is a gem. As for the actual experience -- it's so enlightening and interesting. As Rachel says, "You may wonder if you're just making this stuff up -- and so what if you are?" Exactly. Whether you take the experience literally, or just use it to gain deeper insight into your subconscious self -- you will definitely get something positive out of attending her workshops. Highly recommend checking her next workshop out, or going to see her for a tarot reading. She is a very talented, bright, and insightful young woman, and you will be happy you met her. I know I am! read more

Rachel is amazing! I started seeing her in 2015 when my life was less than ideal. She did a tarot reading that was incredibly spot-on and that I continued to look back on and say, "Wow! She said this would happen, unbelievable!" After that first appointment, I started to join her shamanic journeying workshops where I traveled to the stars, was greeted by spirit guides, ran into (and sometimes from) totem animals, and woke up feeling energized and carrying more knowledge than I did when I entered. Rachel has also done mediumship readings for me where I was able to connect to family members long passed. I even verified some of these members with my parents afterwards and they were stunned that they made an appearance! Over the summer, I was able to get some remote energy work done during this Quarantine which was much-needed! She was able to tap into some current struggles I was having and, most importantly, provide resources that would be able to assist me further in my healing process. This reading, along with the previous ones, helped me gain further clarity on my life. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a way to further delve into their spirituality, to answer any pressing questions or heck, just to have someone kindly and humorously guide you to the next chapter in your life. She will live up to your expectations! read more

Legitimate. She is the one you are looking for!!!!! She has got it. I have had the pleasure of doing both the Tarot card readings (twice now) and this Totem reading with my sister. First, Rachel, knew nothing about me or my sister (she had no names no information to look up), and when she read our cards...she was hitting both of our personalities...spot on! We could not stop laughing...she was reading us to the "t" and we both knew it! She accurately described our current life situations and gave some huge insights that have already happened. Rachel's personal connection with Spirit leaves you secretly excited in eager anticipation of the future. Her straight forward personal quips will leave you in tears...laughing! You will leave there begging to go out to coffee with her due to her innate sense of humor and perfect comedic timing. Her delivery is second to none. Rachel has the gift. I no longer need to look for anyone else...she is a legitimate psychic with a number of unique talents in this field. Also, if you can read aura's you can actively see her glowing a clear powerful golden light...I have never seen it before I met her...but you can see it on her! Go see her...your search will be over. read more

Earlier today I had a phone reading with Rachel; to be more specific, it's called 'Shamanic Soul Part Consultation'. Honestly, I had no idea what this was but I am so glad I went for it! I went into this reading looking for answers, hoping to clarify and bring resolution to things I have been struggling with. Her accuracy amazed me. I have had many phone and in-person readings before, but she has been the only one to pin point exactly what the root of a lot of my problems are. But most importantly, the information she brought up enabled me to look at everything entirely different. She made me realize that a lot of my worries are in my control and by simply having a new perspective, I could change where things were heading. She also recommended many different things to try that would work specifically to help my weaker chakras and situations in my life. She even encourages you to keep in contact after the reading and email her questions whenever you have any. As much as I'm complimenting her work, none of these words are able to truly describe how empowered I feel after this reading. It's like a weight has been lifted off of me. If you need in depth clarification and soul work, I highly recommend Rachel! read more

I just recently had a tarot reading with Rachel and was extremely impressed. I know other people who already had readings with her and had been amazed how accurate she is and helpful her readings have been for them. I found her to be very informative and insightful. I not only had my cards read, but I also was shown the significance of each card and their placement. There was much information she went over, and was very calm and patient when I had any questions. She gave great suggestions for me to fully embrace my future path. I was able to learn what events are likely on the way and I now have more patience to let it unfold! I had also taken a shamanic journey class about a year ago with Rachel. She was very professional and an excellent facilitator of the event. She created a safe environment for us and explained how to approach the shamanic journey. I didn't know what to expect before we started, but did find myself transported on an alternative dimensional level to a place of healing with her guidance. It was quite an amazing journey wiith visions I still reflect about today. The after effects were immediately very healing and I continued improve even many months afterwards. read more

I recently had my first tarot reading with Rachel and was absolutely blown away by her kindness, generosity, and very grounded approach. I've had other readings in the past that were pretty esoteric and "out there," but literally everything Rachel shared with me was incredibly accurate, practical, and rooted in the real world. I was so impressed with her honesty and integrity, as she told me my reading was good for an entire year and that when the reading is done correctly I shouldn't need to be going back for frequent readings. Her prices are incredibly reasonable given the depth and high quality of her reading. I also loved all the recommendations she gave me at the end of my reading like specific crystals to help my situation, particular flower essences, and salt baths to cleanse my energy field. I will definitely be going back for her other services as she is clearly the real deal and such a gem! I'm so glad I found her! read more

Speaking with Rachel was such a vivid and uplifting experience for me. I did my first reading with her back in August of 2014, where she said the next 6 months would be a dramatic change opposed to what I was used to. She said if I was open to what she said, I would gain the most out of the coming opportunities. It turned out that EVERYTHING she said came into fruition. She mentioned that I would be experiencing a very noticeable change in my environment and social image (just two significant examples I remember) and I ended up moving to college where I met an astounding array of magical people. I actually intended to do a past life reading at first, but Rachel felt it would be more relevant for me to do a present and future reading. Looking back now, I am really grateful that she did the reading for me and I would definitely recommend getting in touch with her if you're seeking some clarity because she's like an angel ^_^ read more

Rachel is an extraordinarily gifted and insightful tarot reader. She has given me three distinct tarot readings remotely over the phone. In one case, events that she had described to me in the reading began transpiring within hours. Her readings are very accurate and each time her insights have given me a greater perspective into what is transpiring in my life on many levels - physical, emotional and spiritual. Rachel has also provided guidance and healing to me through meditation and shamanic journeying. She is able to easily move into the world of spirit and connect with spirit and animal guides. She has relayed messages to me from spirit guides that have helped me to move through challenges and have energetically healed me. I am amazed at the level of detail she picks up and relays to me through meditation and shamanic journeying - she is very gifted! I highly recommend her services! read more

For someone with such strong etheric sight, Rachel (TOTEM) is incredibly down-to-earth and personable, sharing information in a relatable way which makes the concepts accessible and easy to grasp. In just a quick tarot past-life overview and one shamanic journeying workshop, Rachel has guided me to discover deep insight into various aspects of myself and the events of my life. Through the new spiritual tools and information she has shared with me, I have found myself much more comfortable in my own skin and able to flow more comfortably with my Self and the events of my life. The workshop I attended was equally fun and insightful, with very effective lessons on how to connect with one's totem animals and guides in order to accept and incorporate their lessons and medicines into one's life. My experiences with TOTEM have been so positive and helpful, I am excited to work with her more. read more

I first have to say that it's not easy to find and connect with TRUE spiritual practicioners that you can trust. There are many people out there that say they have supernatural, spiritual powers but whether or not they use those powers to actually SERVE your highest good is questionable. Rachel is THE REAL DEAL! A friend of mine recommended Rachel to me a few years ago. Well, that tarot reading was more informative than many things had been in my life to that point. I have continued to see Rachel, for a past life reading, energy work and am always amazed and impressed by her wisdom, knowledge and access to the other dimensions. If you are interested in this kind of work and raising your vibration, Rachel is a must to experience! read more

I have had two one-on-one sessions with Rachel - a shamanic energy healing and a channelling session. Both were extremely helpful and healing, and gave me clarity and confirmation of my inner knowing. I also bought Rachel's two tarot decks and a LOT of flower essences - all are helping me a lot in my healing and practice. I love Rachel's no-nonsense approach, she is very clear and direct in the way she explains things, and I really appreciate her honesty and integrity. Those traits matter so much in this space because I need to feel comfortable and allow myself to be vulnerable for the most effective results. Thank you, Rachel, for holding the necessary space and for being so meticulous and authentic. read more

I've had the opportunity and blessing to have worked with Rachel as my "spiritual coach" on two separate occasions and am so grateful for her down to earth clarity and depth of wisdom. If you are ready to do the deep work to look beyond the veil and walk your spiritual path then Rachel is the shaman you want by your side and on your team. Rachel will provides clear resources, roadmaps and supports in a caring and direct manner. I recommend starting with a tarot reading or channeling session as an introduction to Rachel or check out her amazing podcast "The Skeptical Shaman" on Apple, Spotify and Substack, you will not be disappointed! read more

I saw Rachel for the first time in 2018, after reading glowing reviews about her process, honesty, and commitment to the energetic process. After that first session, she'd told me I wouldn't need to return for awhile. Fast forward to 2021: I wanted to come back, and I'm just as grateful and impressed as I was in 2018. Even with a remote session (as TOTEM has moved to Austin), Rachel is not only talented, but her pragmatic approach, compassion and thoroughness are noteworthy. I would recommend her to anyone, anytime. You will come away with a deep sense of gratitude, and very clear information. -Samantha G., Chicago, IL read more

My reading was better than I even hoped it would be. I didn't tell her anything about why I wanted to have a reading but within the first 5 minutes, she knew exactly why I was there. Rachel was extremely accurate and knew things that were going on in my life. She is an extremely talented person who has a wonderful way of putting things into perspective. She offered a new outlook on old problems. I left there feeling refreshed and like I had just sat there with an old friend. I highly recommend her and I am looking forward to attending the upcoming TOTEM workshops. read more

In the spiritual enlightenment space, seemingly intoxicated by love and light, Rachel White is the bad ass antidote: inordinately brilliant, wildly creative, exceptionally curious. Hers is a no-nonsense approach whether she's channeling or partnering with nature to create her extraordinarily powerful flower essences. Rachel's deep commitment to her work, her craft and her art, serve as invitation and catalyst for one's own deep exploration of cellular bad ass knowing. And right now, the planet needs a little more bad ass on her love and light. read more

Rachel is incredible. I recently had my first Tarot reading with her, and was amazed at what a powerful, helpful, insightful yet practical session it was. Rachel is warm, kind, funny, honest, and actually says real things (no statements that are so vague to the point of being insipid.) I was new to Tarot, so I appreciated her ability to explain everything in layman's terms and help me understand how it applied to me. I walked away with a strong sense of what next steps I should take to best serve the goals and concerns I came to her with. read more
