I met Lola Adams because I went to her store on Magnolia Blvd, hoping to find a book or something to distract myself with, as I was having a nasty fight with my ex. I'd had readings done before and know how to compose myself so that they can't "read your fortune" by reading you. She offered to give me a full reading, which included energy, tarot, and Palm readings. I know the gist of Palm and tarot reading myself and have done energy work such as Qi Gong and reiki. The first thing she did was tell me that I had a very strong psychic presence and that I had a powerful energy "shaman" that stands on the right side of me and that this entity was someone I had known in life but had died. Well, I'm in my early twenties- there's a pretty good chance they I know someone who has died. However, she started describing an event that happened 9 years before where a lot of people were crying and she gave me a physical description of an aunt who had committed suicide around that time. As I had just met her and there was no way she could have known about this, I was freaked out and sold that she actually had some ability. She must have picked up on this because then she went on to tell me that there was some sort of bad karma-like curse on the women in my mom's family and offered to help me. This would include guided meditation, meditating at home at specific times of the day, and coming in for chakra cleansings. The total fee was $200 and she swore that that was all I'd have to pay her for the duration of time that she would work with me. Considering what some reiki masters charge, this seemed pretty reasonable. I left her shop feeling uplifted and way better than I had when I went in.
After the third session I had with her, she told me that she needed to enlist the help of an organization of psychics and healers that she worked with because my energy was so messed up that she couldn't clean house on her own. The original price that her "team" requires was $4600 but she had done me a "favor" by knocking the price down to $3300. I balled because while I had enough to pay her in my savings account, I was not in a position to be spending that amount of cash on anything. I told her that I couldn't do it and she scared me into thinking that if I did not pay, my life would continue to get worse and worse. She told me that my energy had been tainted by my aunt's suicide, that I had been frozen at that energy state for the past cycle of nine years and that if I didn't fix things now, I would have another 18 years of this type of life. She told me that the man I was with, though he was increasingly becoming more and more abusive, was my soulmate and that I had to "let him go through what he has to go through" so he and I could be together. I was stupidly and desperately head over heels in love with this man and she knew that all she had to do was play on those fears I had. I paid her the money and then she again promised that I would not have to pay her another dime.
Two weeks later, I got into a fight with my mother over the phone. As soon as I got off the phone with my mom, Lola called me asking what had happened. I told her and she then insisted that I needed to pay her another $3300 because my mother was poisoning my life with "her negativity".
In total, I stupidly ended up paying this woman $6k. She is supposedly giving me $1800 back because her "psychic association received enough money from a charity to cover that much money from the sum (I) payed". I will know on Monday whether this is another scam when I recieve the cashier's check. I'm trying to press charges and get the rest of the $6k back, though Lola is insisting that she and her "team" fixed my life and that I just have to let "nature take its course" to see the results.
This woman is a very brilliant scam artist. She has a very sweet, grandmotherly disposition and she knows how to reel people in. She may have some genuine psychic ability, but she uses this to take advantage of her clients. Do not even stop in for her $18 tarot card special. Again, she has two shops (that I know of): one on Magnolia Blvd and her main shop on W Olive Ave.
