  1. Absolutely true. You know, I spent 20 years as a high school English teacher, and I know that my soul is here as a teacher. I happen to be a psychic medium and I felt called. I knew this was my calling now to open people's minds and hearts to this teaching. But all I want to teach them is that that doorway to all of that. That connection, it's in each and every one of us. You can just do it by setting that intention, saying, okay, I'm all in, I'm ready to receive your guidance. Send me the sign, send me the messages, send me the knowings, guide me onto my highest path. You know, I always love to say to my team of light, use me as a vehicle of the love and healing in this world, however I can best be used. And we can all say that because we're also all part of each other's journeys.

  2. Oh, that it's real and that it's accessible to all of us at all times that no one ever needs to go to a psychic medium to connect with that light.

  3. Absolutely I think pets can even communicate with us better than humans initially sometimes because I think our animal companions never got stuck in the language, right? The English language or whatever language. And so they're really good at manipulating things to get us signs right away to let us know they're still around and loving. If we can feel their presence, that's so beautiful. I've also found if we have other pets. We might find that after, let's say we have a dog here and a dog that crossed, we might find that our dog here all sudden starts looking at something that we can't see and barking and getting all excited. Why? Animals can sense and see spirit in a way that I think we're a little limited

  4. Pay for some of these ice cream with the intention of this is to celebrate my love for that person on the other side. They're a team of light with us. They get their energy gets to experience that along with us. It's one of the most beautiful things we can do. So I want to commend you so much for being open to this new language because as you said before, that's not your norm, but your love for each other is what helped open you. And I think go forward into this world. Talk about her, celebrate her, and do acts in your own life that celebrate that joy and that love in whatever way feels right.

  5. Absolutely. You know, one thing I would like to share too is that we can receive these signs and we know that they're present, but they also are rooting for us to live vibrant and engaged, meaningful lives where we are being loving. So one of the things that those who have crossed on the other side will share with me consistently is that when any person here does something in their name, whether it's run a race, contribute to something, tell a story about them,

  6. When I connect with people on the other side of Cross, they all say the same thing to me. And it's this, the highest way that we can honor receiving a sign from them is to share it, that story, share the story with others. So I just want to let you know that you and he worked as a team of light together by you sharing that online and now here with everybody who's tuning in, they could learn about that beautiful connection of love and know that they too are connected to those they love on the other side.

    2025-11-18 · The Oprah Podcast · How Loved Ones Communicate After Death - Oprah Speaks With Medium Laura Lynne Jackson · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  7. I first want to start by saying I'm so sorry for your physical loss. It's so hard for us to ever try to make sense about a child's crossing. It can't to us logically. I can only share what they tell me from the other side. And what they tell me is that it's all about love in some way, that they have taken that love with them and are still connected to the people they love here. I think it's so beautiful that you were open to trusting that voice you heard that said, go buy that giraffe because that's what our loved ones do. They want so badly for us to know they are present with us still. And the joy that that brought in knowing he was still present with you to his soul, to your family while you were on vacation for that is really.

    2025-11-18 · The Oprah Podcast · How Loved Ones Communicate After Death - Oprah Speaks With Medium Laura Lynne Jackson · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  8. And you should ask for a song and a phrase as well. And now you created four ways that the other side can do. Yeah, I had a friend who was.

    2025-11-18 · The Oprah Podcast · How Loved Ones Communicate After Death - Oprah Speaks With Medium Laura Lynne Jackson · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  9. Yeah, so one of the things that our loved ones on the other side are And also, you know what? Make it as unique as possible. So let's say you think of an elephant. I want an elephant from a sign from my dad on the other side. Now let's change it a little. Let's make it a purple elephant. Or let's ask for a dolphin and change it, make it a pink dolphin. But it should extend beyond that. Because just like when you learn a foreign language and every new word you learn, you have a new way to communicate. That's our language with those we love on the other side. They don't have voice boxes to say things. They don't have arms to hug us, but they are looking for all ways to communicate with us. I always encourage people to also pick a number sequence that they want to receive from their loved ones. It could be one that you just think of or it could be one that's meaningful.

  10. They love manipulating electrical devices to do this. Could it be autocorrect sometimes? Maybe, but. It's a really big little flag to pay attention if that happens to say, am I feeling somebody's presence? And what did that word change to me?

    2025-11-18 · The Oprah Podcast · How Loved Ones Communicate After Death - Oprah Speaks With Medium Laura Lynne Jackson · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  11. Putting coins in the person's path, pennies, dimes, and nickels. And I always say pick it up if you're feeling that and look at the date. There might be a second sign. And I think why are they doing that? And I think maybe it's because we return to light energy. And so it's easy to manipulate small metallic objects into our path. They also love messing with electrical devices. So flickering the lights, TV on and off, but now that we have cell phones. Oh, they like having phone calls come in on special days with a number you can't call back. They love changing the words when you're texting people and usually pay attention when that happens what that word changes to that might have special meaning to you.

    2025-11-18 · The Oprah Podcast · How Loved Ones Communicate After Death - Oprah Speaks With Medium Laura Lynne Jackson · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  12. Yeah, I always try to help people see the signs that they've already gotten from their team of light and their loved ones on the other side. I call them default signs. And so typically what happens is when somebody crosses one of the main things they want to do is let their loved ones know they're still very much present. And that they're not in pain and that that love that they have for each other hasn't gone anywhere, in fact, can get stronger. And so they like to send what I call default signs. And default signs are.

  13. So I've come to understand this through my own experiences with my guides, with my feelings of connection to God, and with the way that I read and what I see on this inner screen when I read.

    2025-11-18 · The Oprah Podcast · How Loved Ones Communicate After Death - Oprah Speaks With Medium Laura Lynne Jackson · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  14. We don't know them this lifetime. They're usually before we come here to earth, we contract with them. Now that doesn't mean that we can't call upon people who have lived on earth and asked them to guide us who we certainly can, but they're really more the angelic realm. And then we have loved ones who have crossed. That's the third part of our team of light. pets included, as well as our ancestors we might not have met, and they guide us as well 100%. They are our angels as well. I call them loved ones that who have crossed.

    2025-11-18 · The Oprah Podcast · How Loved Ones Communicate After Death - Oprah Speaks With Medium Laura Lynne Jackson · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  15. So I've come to understand that from my own experiences and all the readings I've done, each and every one of us has what I call a team of light. It's made up of three parts. The first part I see as God energy, just this force of love that is part of us, inherent in us, connects us, leads us and guides us every day on our highest path. The second part of our team of light, and this might sound a little woo-woo, is what I call spirit guides. Throughout time and history, a lot of religions were referred to them as guardian angels. This angelic realm with specific guides that each and every one of us have that have been helping us since the moment our souls came here to earth school. They're nobody who knew this lifetime. They're just advanced angelic beings that we contracted with spiritual.

  16. Guidance, if we open up our minds and hearts to that guidance and that connection with our teams of light on the other side, it can transform not only our lives, but the lives of those around us.

  17. And reaccess that spiritual part of ourself. And I really do feel like that's part of my mission here on earth is to just reintroduce people to their spiritual self to reaccess that because what your frontal lobe does is it tells you I'm separate from you. We're having separate experiences. I'm my own person when in truth we all belong to each other. We're all having this collective experience in life.

    2025-11-18 · The Oprah Podcast · How Loved Ones Communicate After Death - Oprah Speaks With Medium Laura Lynne Jackson · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  18. What's different about me that scientists have looked at and that I find interesting for everybody listening is that when I am in normal talking mode, my brain looks pretty similar. They've done EEGs of my brain. And I'm using mostly my frontal lobe. But the moment I go into psychic mode or mediumship, it looks like I go into a coma because the brainwave silence and different parts of my brain light up. And so, what they've told me is we all have a switch in our brains that we can switch off this frontal logical, what meditation teacher call the monkey mind chat chatter, right?

    2025-11-18 · The Oprah Podcast · How Loved Ones Communicate After Death - Oprah Speaks With Medium Laura Lynne Jackson · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  19. Yeah, that's such a careful point. And I think what happens, what you were describing when children start formal schooling, usually kindergarten, first grade, second grade. They turn off that ability to connect with unseen energy, to feel each other's energy. Why is that? Well, what ends up happening to us is we get very much trained to use only the frontal lobes of our brain. That part of our brain's in charge of analytical thinking, critical thinking, math skills, language, all the day-to-day stuff we need. So from age five to seven, daily, we're being retrained to not perceive energy, but to get very focused on that frontal lobe. Do you know that most of us have 98% of our brainwave activities taking place just in our frontal lobe during waking hours?

    2025-11-18 · The Oprah Podcast · How Loved Ones Communicate After Death - Oprah Speaks With Medium Laura Lynne Jackson · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  20. Yes. All that magic around them, right? So I work actually a lot with scientists because I know that this is a truth for me and I know that I've been really wanting to explore it to understand how does it work in me? How come I can access it? Because it's truly a gift that we all have. I know this. And so what I've come to understand is that

    2025-11-18 · The Oprah Podcast · How Loved Ones Communicate After Death - Oprah Speaks With Medium Laura Lynne Jackson · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  21. Doing that's how we operate, and that's why children too can sometimes recognize people from their family that they never met in the here and now as spirits that they're familiar with. It's very beautiful, but

    2025-11-18 · The Oprah Podcast · How Loved Ones Communicate After Death - Oprah Speaks With Medium Laura Lynne Jackson · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  22. That is an absolute truth. We all come here to our school. Learn a collective lesson in love, and really our only rules are to give love and receive love. It's so simple. But the way that we arrive here is through reading unseen energy all around us. So when we're young, we're reading that love energy, we're reading that connection.

  23. When you're young, you come in with it. That's exactly what you're doing. When you're born, you come in with it. I say you come in trailing the breath of the angels. I don't know where I got that from. It just occurred to me. I have experienced so many stories where children are trying to tell their parents, but about five or six, they no longer have.

    2025-11-18 · The Oprah Podcast · How Loved Ones Communicate After Death - Oprah Speaks With Medium Laura Lynne Jackson · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  24. Was so confused. I mean, I think it would be scary too. It would. Yeah. It was scary. I was fearful of always having that responsibility of delivering the messages right. And I was fearful about people thinking I was crazy, including myself. It was just so out there for me that it took me a number of years to really own that truth and also see it as beautiful and comforting. I can see why that would happen. I mean, I have discussed, and a lot of people are going to say we're very woo-woo for even having this conversation. But I've been talking about it for so long. And I remember specifically doing a show on the spiritual life of children and talking to parents who had experienced this in young children because I have come to realize that young children come in.

  25. All sorts of things like her shoe size, the fact that she had just bought a new purse, and saying, Oh, there's love and beautiful messages for her. And I actually stopped myself and I apologized and I said, I'm so sorry. I don't understand what's really going on here. I'm getting all this information from someone named Chris. And it's really focusing on Amy. Our whole reading's focusing now on Amy. And he stopped me and he said, it's okay. Chris and Amy used to be boyfriend and girlfriend. Chris died in a car accident that Amy was in the car and survived. That's her ex-boyfriend. And he's like, and these messages are beautiful. Wow. And I didn't think woo-woo because I'm going to tell you, this sounds woo-woo. Let me tell you, I thought woo-woo so much that I stopped doing this. I shut down. I said, I can't handle that responsibility. And I also.

  26. I didn't really have an awareness of being a medium. A medium means you can connect with the consciousness of somebody who's no longer in their physical body. I just thought I was psychic because I would know things about people and I could feel their energy and I could see things about their past, their present and future. And I remember doing this one reading for a young man named Paul. He was in his late 20s. In the reading. I had this very different experience that happened than I was talking about his path and his life, and all of a sudden I felt this energy come from my like behind me on the right and started giving me all this information about Paul's girlfriend Amy

  27. And my mom waited for me to get out. I went to visit him, and I had the most magical day with him. It's just the two of us. We laughed, we talked. And when it was time to say goodbye, I just hugged him. I told him how much I loved him. And that was the last time I ever saw him alive. He got diagnosed with leukemia two days later. And back then, if you weren't 16 years or older, you couldn't go to the hospital. So none of my siblings or I got to go see him and he crossed within two weeks. And shortly after that, I had a dream where I connected with his spirit and he showed me where he was on the other side and that that was our true home. And I thought, that's really beautiful. But I'll tell you, it wasn't until I was 23. Okay. So this happened at 11 that you had the dream about your grandfather and you connected to him from the other side. Yeah. And then you were 23. So when I was 23, I had come into understanding that I had these different abilities and I had decided I was going to try to use them to help some people.

  28. I think that there is a path to an illuminated life and that most people are shut down to it. So we're going to be taking some questions from you, our podcast listeners in a little bit. But I just want to talk about what you have come to know to be true for yourself and your experiences with working with other people. When did you know, Laura, that you had the gift of communicating with souls who had passed on to the other side? How did that first show up for you? Well, I think I first understood there was something different about me and the way that I was perceiving the world around me from a very young age. I used to see people in color. I used to feel what other people were feeling. But when I was very young, I thought that's just how the world worked. And then when I was 11 years old, I had this sudden knowing while I was in the swimming pool one August day that I needed to go see my grandfather that day. It was a sense of panic.

  29. The other side that everybody who passes is still there for you in some way. I've always felt that and have since that in my own life. And with me here in the tea house is a psychic medium and author of two New York Times bestsellers, The Light Between Us is one of them, and the other is signs. Many of you have read both of those books. And she is now out with her newest book. It's called Guided, Guided, the Secret Path to an Illuminated Life. Welcome, Laura Lynn Jackson. Thank you so much for having me here. I'm so honored to be in the light of you. Well, thank you for that. Saying that, I love that phrase. I'll be using it now.

  30. My sister, or my husband, whoever has passed. So just one more so I could tell them what I didn't while they were here. Well, my guest today believes that we actually all have that opportunity and that we all have the capability to hear from our loved ones. Have passed on now. I have always felt, believed, and there is a knowingness inside of me that is assured that when you lose a loved one, that means you have an angel watching out or a spirit guide, whatever you choose to name it. It doesn't matter.

  31. Wow. Sounds like this out of Loreland's book, really. Wow. Hello, it's my pleasure to be with you on the Oprah podcast. I know you all have a lot of demands on your time, so I am truly grateful that you chose to spend some of this time here with me. And my hope is that these conversations that we're having can serve to move you, to inspire you, or connect you to an idea you may be hearing about for the first time or one that you've thought about and went, oh, yes, had an aha, something that could enhance your life. I know so many people struggle after experiencing the loss of somebody you love. And one of the hardest things to bear or to accept is not being able to talk to them anymore. We often hear friends say, maybe you've said yourself, I wish I could have had just one more conversation with my mother.
