Hey there!

Welcome! I'm Francesca, the owner of Cesca Lee Creative LLC. â€‹

My Story

Cesca Lee Creative is a small business of one (for now) that encompasses all avenues in the creative arts. My business allows me to work under a name that has multiple roads throughout the creative industry.

 

I began my love for the arts from a young age, enjoying art classes and taking up ballet seriously. I obtained my BFA in Dance from Montclair State University in 2010 and entered the auditioning world strictly after that. As I began freelance dancing for a few companies after graduation, I also grew an interest to learn photography. I jumped right into an internship with one of the best wedding photography companies in the tri-state area, starting at the bottom and moving up. I began as an assistant on jobs, learning editing programs for not only editing photos, but also for graphic design, which later led me to design wedding albums with the company. Over the years I moved up and became a photographer with them. Learning photography as a trade would help give me the flexibility to freelance once I had children. However, once I had children, I left the industry entirely for a little bit to stay home and be my children's primary caregiver. 

​

After having children, I fortunately struggled with postpartum depression to the point of wanting to end my life. Yes, you read that correctly, I fortunately struggled. Everything happens for a reason, no matter how perceived. Sometimes we can't see the light through the dark, but we must hold faith in our hearts that through the difficult, we can and will prevail into something positive. This is what I like to call, a rebirth period. One day, my depression became so deep that my plan to end my life came to an abrupt halt, thanks to divine intervention. Is your head spinning yet? Just wait, there's more! 

​

Through this dark time, I sought out professional help and journaled through my depression, as per my therapist's suggestion. I sobered up, got healthy in all the ways I could, and I wrote. The clearer my mind became is when a spiritual awakening would unlock. I'd learn to understand that I am a medium, or communicator between the spirit realm and earth side. After six years of writing through what was even happening to me, I completed my first book. It is a memoir, a unique story of how at the lowest point of my life, I found a faith I never knew existed. 

 

Now, I am feeling called to share my story with the world. I began the steps necessary to open my small business of one, Cesca Lee Creative LLC in July of 2024. I opened my business so that I can publish my memoir to share with the world, and to finally encompass all of the creative channels I've been working through after all of these years, including but not limited to photography, writing and inspirational support groups.  

​

Sometimes we must follow our intuition, even if the next few steps past that are unclear. Sometimes we must take a risk that feels right, and follow a calling that makes our hearts flutter in order to have that next stage in our lives unravel. 

​

So, this is where I'm at now. A failed dancer, once suicidal postpartum, to a practicing medium, and now first time published author. Who'd have thought?

​

I'm glad you're here.

Welcome to my journey!

“If you've ever been "through it" in the fourth trimester or in general, this book is for you. The author really brings you inside her head during a dark time in her life and you can really FEEL what she is going through. Her path to healing is quite the journey and the story of how her mediumship abilities manifest and unravel through time is fascinating. A JOURNEY WITH SPIRIT touches on so many interesting topics regarding "the other side.” If you have any interest in hearing a first hand story of mediumship and the like, I highly recommend it!”
- A.S.

“Reading A JOURNEY WITH SPIRIT was like sitting with an old friend who you hadn't seen in ages and catching up. I immediately felt like I'd known the author forever, and as her story unfolded, I felt the entire spectrum of emotions. I laughed and I cried, sometimes both on the same page. The way it is written is so real, so relatable. Francesca's story is empowering and inspiring. She is the friend every woman needs.” 
- A.D.
“A JOURNEY WITH SPIRIT was an honest take on a young woman’s journey towards peace and grace through various transitions in her life. While reading it, I felt like I was sitting next to a friend and listening to her heartfelt story. She was honest, and though it may have been difficult to hear, it is the raw truth that many have felt at one or many points in their lives. I am sure that many can relate to the authors experiences, especially women in the postpartum stage of their lives. Sometimes the answers are in the most uncomfortable places, and Francesca ‘s book encourages us to believe, trust and have faith especially when we are at our lowest.”

“A JOURNEY WITH SPIRIT truly takes the reader on a vivid journey through the mind of a mother who is navigating through life while trying to juggle all of the puzzle pieces that make her whole.

This book is enlightening for all audiences and forces the reader to question the norm. Francesca takes you through the everyday human burdens and introduces the reader to a world beyond our own. A JOURNEY WITH SPIRIT helps you dig deep to find the tools to build yourself back up and teaches the reader how to break through to a life of fulfillment.”
