Members' True Life Stories - by Tammy Bourgogne


Hands reaching up towards a heart-shaped cloud against a clear blue sky, conveying a sense of love and serenity.

A Note from Heather

There is something so deeply comforting about the way life speaks to us — in signs, intuitive nudges, and perfectly timed moments that feel too aligned to be coincidence.


In our community, we honour these signs and synchronicities as sacred connections — reminders that we are supported, guided, and never truly alone.


Today, I’m so grateful to share a beautiful story from Tammy, who reminds us that even in the most ordinary moments, love can reach through in the most extraordinary ways.


Help from My Dearest Friend

By Tammy Bourgogne


There’s something I’ve come to deeply trust in my life — that signs and synchronicities are always present, quietly guiding me in even the smallest of moments.


The more I’ve opened myself to noticing them, the more they seem to show up. It feels almost like having a personal assistant woven into the fabric of life itself — something intuitive, responsive, and always looking out for me.


Recently, I experienced this in a way that made me smile from the inside out.


Earlier this month, I was searching online for poop pickup bags for my dog. It sounds simple enough, but the options were overwhelming. I knew exactly what I wanted — something strong that wouldn’t break, and easy to open quickly. This mattered more than usual because I’d recently had a frustrating experience trying to open a bag in the middle of the night while caring for my unwell dog. In that moment, struggling with something so small felt exhausting.


As I scrolled through endless listings, I started to feel a bit defeated. Nothing was standing out, and I just wanted to make a reliable choice and be done with it.

Then something gently caught my attention.


My eyes were drawn back to the very first item on the list — one I had already glanced over. This time, I noticed something different. The box contained 1,080 bags.


10/8.


That’s my dearest friend’s birthday — someone I lost in 2022.


In that instant, everything softened. I felt her presence so clearly, as if she were right there beside me, nudging me gently and saying, “This one.”


Green box of PET N PET poop bags with cartoon animals. Text: 60 rolls, 1080 bags, unscented. Partial white ceramic cat on right.

I read the description again. It mentioned exactly what I needed — easy to open, sturdy, made from plant-based materials. It was perfect.


I smiled, felt a wave of relief, and quietly said thank you.

Then I placed the order.


Since then, I’ve been so happy with the bags — they’ve worked beautifully, just as I’d hoped. But more than that, the experience left me with something much deeper.


I felt supported.

I felt guided.


And most of all, I felt connected — as though my friend was still with me, still caring, still helping in the most unexpected and loving ways.


It reminded me that these signs don’t have to be grand or dramatic to be meaningful. Sometimes, they show up in the most ordinary moments — like choosing something online — and gently remind us that we’re never truly alone.


And if we’re open to it… love continues to find us, even in the smallest details.


Closing Reflection

Thank you, Tammy, for sharing such a heartfelt and honest glimpse into the quiet magic of everyday life.


Stories like this remind us that signs don’t always arrive in big, life-changing ways — sometimes they meet us right where we are, in the middle of ordinary decisions, gently guiding us forward.


If you’ve ever experienced a moment like this, I invite you to stay open to it… to trust it… and to know that you are always being supported in ways seen and unseen.


Share Your Stories

Moments like these are deeply personal… yet they are also something many of us experience in quiet, profound ways.


  • Have you ever received a sign you couldn’t explain?

  • Experienced a powerful synchronicity that felt too aligned to be coincidence?

  • Felt a message from an animal… or even another person… before it happened in the physical world?


These experiences matter. They remind us that we are connected in ways that go far beyond what we can see.


If you have a story of signs, synchronicities, animal telepathy, or human-to-human telepathic connection, I would love to hear from you.


This space — The Loving Soul Sanctuary — is here to honour those moments.


You are invited to share your experience, and some of the most powerful and heart-opening stories will be selected to be published here on the blog, so others can feel seen, inspired, and reminded of their own connection.


Let’s open the conversation… and bring these beautiful, unseen connections into the light.

Thank you for the cards today Heather. Looking back over this post now tonight the cards pulled mean something even deeper. You pulled “help” and “awakening” for me. The title of this post is “help from my dearest friend”. 😊😇♥️

What I have never mentioned is that in her life she was a life-long supporter of animals and art.
