Marisa Difrisco (she/her) has had an interest in tarot since she was a kid. She’s spent endless subway commutes quizzing herself on the meanings of the cards, but her true learning really started when she began to read for others. Her public tarot practice began in the summer of 2020 during the coronavirus pandemic. As a New Yorker under strict quarantine, she had a lot of extra time but lacked a sense of purpose. She felt helpless as she watched front line and essential workers risk their lives every day while she sat at home in her sweatpants scrolling through the news. While the Brooklyn Mental Wealth Instagram was born out of a need to preserve Marisa’s own mental health, it quickly grew into a platform where she could use her tarot learnings to help others with their own goals and challenges. She now reads for people daily and donates 25% of all her profits to The Black Emotional and Mental Health Collective (BEAM).
