A safe, compassionate space to receive guidance, clarity, and meaningful spiritual connection.

My name is Lara aka Friendly Ghost. I offer intuitive readings that help you feel seen, understood, and supported. My sessions provide guidance, reflections on your life challenges, and at times, messages may come through from loved ones who have passed. Many clients leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more confident.

Each reading is personalised and held in a compassionate, safe space. Whether you’re navigating grief, life changes, or simply seeking clarity, my goal is to offer grounded, heart-centred support and meaningful insight.

With Love

Friendly Ghost.

FEEDBACK

“I had a beautiful session with Lara that left me feeling uplifted and empowered. A dear friend who’s passed came through with such love, reminding me that I’m a bright light - kind, generous, and always giving. The message was clear: stop doubting myself and start putting myself first. I was reminded that he hears me, he’s always there, and I can talk to him anytime. I’m so grateful for the clarity and strength this session gave me.”

My Story

My Name is Lara Goggins & I had a pretty easy and fun upbringing but hated school and going to sleep (because of friendly ghosts). I loved soccer, gymnastics, snowboarding, & art.

I had strange experiences growing up & would watch “Casper The Friendly Ghost” on repeat. That movie always made me feel normal because in my reality I was struggling to comprehend why I was seeing, hearing & feeling dead people. I eventually buried that part of me and it would occasionally emerge in my teens when drinking or late night when I was alone.

I got my first job in a nursing home working in the Kitchen, I then progressed to a carer role at 17. I got exposed to death and dying fast in that role. I loved being there for individuals in their final moments providing them comfort & dignity. I felt natural in that environment, I was drawn to listening to my resident’s life tribulations, lessons, regrets, fears, achievements, and much more.

I was 21 and enjoying time in Canada snowboarding when my whole world got fractured. My beautiful Sis Jenna was diagnosed with a rare cancer and required emergency surgery. I was on my way back from Canada and made it in time however she ultimately died in 2012. I became a very ugly, angry, time-bomb after she died. I was into my second year studying Nursing but my grief took control and I started failing. I dropped out and threw myself into partying and drinking the pain away.

Thankfully my Sis sent me a healing man. I will never forget the first date we shared, it was one sign after another from her. My partner Jake and I ended up moving to Brisbane and shortly after we got gifted our son. This gave me light again.

I did a Beauty Therapy course while I had my little boy, but it never felt right. It was during COVID my abilities started to slap me in the face. I told Jake I thought I was a psychic medium or just crazy??? He was quick to test me and soon became a believer as I was connecting with his very special Nana Hannah and relatives on the other side.

Fast forward to today, with all my life experiences and obstacles, I am passionate in sharing my abilities and providing others with the opportunity to communicate spiritually. I strongly believe without this connection, I would not be here. I am grateful to Jenna & my special guides for providing me perspective to move forward with my grief.
