How to Move Forward When Losing Someone As a Medium
Hi everyone!
The Question That Breaks My Heart Every Time
"How do I move on when I lost someone to the spirit world?"
This comes up in nearly every session I do. Whether it's a best friend, a partner, a beloved child, or parents - the devastation is real. The life-changing grief is overwhelming.
My mom died on December 29th last year. We had our ups and downs, but I'm grateful for those four precious days at the hospital with her. No words were needed - we both knew we loved each other, even though we could be like "dogs and cats" sometimes because we were so alike.
Why I Believe This Work Matters
As mediums, our job is to prove that life goes on after death. That's it. That's our primary purpose.
I've spoken with parents who lost their children - and I honestly don't know how they get up every morning. The pain must be incomprehensible. But the ones who find strength? They hold onto the belief that they'll be reunited again. They recognize the little signs that their loved ones are still around them.
The Physical is Gone, But the Spirit Lives On
The comfort doesn't take away the sadness or the loss. But knowing you'll see them again, knowing they're still around you even without the physical presence you miss so tremendously - that makes the difference between surviving and thriving.
Mediums: Stop Beating Yourself Up
Here's something I want every medium to understand: You will always feel like you haven't done enough. After 30 years of this work, I still feel this way after every single reading - whether it's intuitive or evidential.
But you know what? That's actually a good thing. It means you're striving to become better all the time.
The biggest change in my work happened when I learned to stop punishing myself so hard. Instead of thinking "Oh, I missed that," I started asking "What did I learn from this situation?"
This is something I constantly remind my students: You're doing the best you can at every given moment. Learn from it instead of beating yourself up.
Why Different Mediums Give Different Evidence
Remember, every medium works from their own life experience and knowledge. If you go to different mediums, you might get different information - not because your loved one isn't there, but because we can only interpret what we understand and recognize.
Everything goes through the medium's mind. We use our imagination and life experience to unfold the energy and messages they're trying to deliver.
This Work Changes You
Being a medium isn't just about giving evidence - it's about being a good human being. It's about being kind even when others aren't kind to you. It's about personal and spiritual development.
Don't forget your personal development if you're doing this work. It won't only change you - it'll change your work for the better.
