feeling drained? understanding your energy boundaries
(free course)
Would you like to understand why you feel so drained after being around certain people or places?
Would you like to stop absorbing everyone else’s emotions as if they were your own?
Would you like to know whether it’s “just you”… or if there’s actually something deeper going on with your energy?
If you answered yes, then you’re in the right place.
I have created this short (free) prelude course as a compassionate first step - a way to name what’s been going on with your energy and energy boundaries, and to support you gently in turning towards change.
through this course you shall...
... begin to understand what’s really happening with your energy when you feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or “not yourself”.
... discover the real reasons sensitive, intuitive people like you end up depleted - even when you’re doing your best to be kind, helpful, and strong.
... explore the quiet signs that your energy boundaries are thin, how modern life and conditioning have shaped that, and why none of this is your fault.
... learn one simple shift you can start using right away to protect your energy, without needing complicated tools or long practices.

Hi, I'm vivmcg...
... and I’ve spent years teaching intuitive development, oracle card reading, pendulum dowsing, and self-healing practices to students around the world.
More importantly, though, I’m someone who has lived this. I’m a highly sensitive person and an empath, and for a long time I absorbed everyone else’s emotions, moods, and worries as if they were my own. It left me exhausted, confused, and wondering what was wrong with me.
Learning about energy boundaries, and strengthening my own, has been absolutely vital for my wellbeing, not to mention, my sanity. That’s why I have created this prelude course: to give you the understanding I wish I’d had at the beginning of my journey.
So if you’ve been feeling drained, overwhelmed, or like you’re constantly carrying more than your fair share…
If you’re ready to understand what’s really going on with your energy, in a kind and simple way…
If you’d like a gentle first step before diving deeper into boundary work…
Then this course is for you.
FAQ's
Do I need any prior experience to take this course?
No. This course is designed to be accessible whether you’re new to energy awareness or already consider yourself intuitive or sensitive. Everything is explained gently and clearly, without assuming prior knowledge.
Is this course really free? What’s the catch?
Yes. This prelude course is genuinely free. There’s no catch, no hidden payment, and no obligation to continue further. I created it to help you understand why your energy feels drained and to offer clarity and reassurance if you’ve been struggling.
At the end of the course, I do share an optional next step for those who feel ready to go deeper. However, this is entirely your choice. You’re welcome to take what you learn here and stop there if that feels right for you.
This course is simply offered as a supportive starting point.
Will this overlap with the full Energy Boundaries course?
This prelude course introduces key ideas, including the Power of Pause, to help you begin recognising how your energy is affected in daily life. These are shared at an awareness level, so you can experience a quick sense of clarity and relief.
In the full Energy Boundaries course, these same concepts are explored much more deeply, with practical guidance, examples, scripts, and supportive practices that help you apply them consistently and confidently in real-life situations.
You’re welcome to take this course on its own, and then decide if you’d like to continue further.
