Meet Randi Sands
International Psychic Medium, Animal Communicator
You could say Randi Sands has lived a few lifetimes in one. From surviving a near-fatal motorcycle crash at 15 to walking steel beams as a union ironworker, her journey has been anything but ordinary. But it’s in the quiet, soul-deep moments with animals—and the messages she receives from beyond—that Randi found her true calling.
As a child with ADHD and sky-high energy, school just didn’t fit. She failed kindergarten, couldn’t sit still, and didn’t feel like she belonged. Adults didn’t know what to do with her, and frankly, she preferred the company of animals. Animals didn’t judge. They didn’t misunderstand. They just were. And in that, Randi felt peace.
That connection deepened after her motorcycle accident—doctors were sure she wouldn’t survive. Her skull fractured in eight places, her liver and spleen ruptured. They told her parents she’d be gone by morning. But Randi had other plans.
Something changed after that. She went from a struggling student to making straight A’s. At 18, her grandmother took her for a psychic reading, and everything clicked: she didn’t die because she had a purpose. She was here to do God’s work. And now, that’s exactly what she’s doing.
After years in high-risk jobs, Randi eventually followed an inner pull into dog grooming. She studied under one of the world’s top groomers, and while her scissors worked on fur, something else started to stir. She began receiving messages—clear ones. Some dogs didn’t want to go home. Others had stories, trauma, emotions no one was hearing. Especially the ones labeled “aggressive.” Randi knew better. They weren’t bad. They were misunderstood.
That’s when she knew: groomers, of all people, needed to learn this. Animal communication wasn’t just a spiritual gift—it was a tool to make their work safer, more connected, and deeply healing.
Today, Randi is an internationally recognized psychic and animal communicator, teaching workshops from Canada to Australia and speaking at major grooming conventions. She helps pet pros and animal lovers learn how to truly listen—to the animals in their care, to the loved ones they’ve lost, and to the intuition within themselves.
Whether she’s giving a private reading, teaching a group course, or rescuing an abandoned cat like Adonis and finding his forever home, Randi’s mission is the same:
To bring peace, clarity, and compassion to a world that needs it—one message at a time.
