At the beginning of April, I faced an unexpected and challenging turn of events—I was laid off from my job. This sudden loss led me into a state of sadness, uncertainty, and a deep questioning of my self-worth. The reality of my situation weighed heavily on me: both of my kids were under my insurance. I was the primary earner in our household, which led to accumulating debt. My unhappiness with the situation was profound, and I found myself unsure of the way forward.
In the midst of this turmoil, I began to take practical steps to regain control. I reached out to my network for job opportunities, updated my resume and LinkedIn profile, and initiated the unemployment process. Yet, despite these efforts, I found myself walking around in an unemployment daze, knowing that if I didn’t pull myself out of this funk, I wouldn’t succeed. My kids needed me to be strong and present.
In what might sound like a twist from a novel, about a month ago, I had booked an appointment with a medium. The appointment was scheduled just a few days after my layoff. Initially, I considered canceling it, thinking I shouldn’t spend money on something like this. However, something inside me urged me to go through with it. I had always been curious about mediums and believed that this experience might help me in ways I couldn’t yet understand.
Despite my lifelong skepticism and guarded nature, I decided to keep the appointment. A family member had referred me to this medium, and I trusted their judgment. Little did I know that this encounter would profoundly shift my mindset and offer me clarity about my path forward.
The session, conducted over Zoom, was nothing short of wild. Without giving her any information, the medium was able to connect with my grandparents, great-grandmother, my lost pet Brady, and a young woman who chose not to be named. She accurately described how my grandparents passed away and what happened to Brady. I was blown away by her accuracy.
She then proceeded to read my cards, and to my amazement, there wasn’t a single bad card. The main reading assured me that I would be financially stable and that money would not be a problem. When I told her about my layoff, she laughed and said my grandfather (Papa) was saying, “You’re welcome!” Confused, I asked for clarification. She explained that my grandfather believed I was unhappy in my job and would have stayed out of a sense of obligation. His message was clear: “You were unhappy with that job to begin with and would have stayed because you thought you had to. So, you’re welcome.”
The relief that washed over me was indescribable. For the first time, I felt a profound sense of peace and understanding. It was as if my family and spiritual guides were assuring me that this layoff was not a setback but a necessary step toward something greater. Papa revealed that I would be starting a business related to herbs, tea, or healing—a prospect that intrigued me deeply.
The medium advised me to stay attuned to signs and assured me that things would start to unfold within 6-8 months, possibly sooner if I could learn to get out of my own way. She emphasized the importance of making peace with losing my job and recognizing that the conventional path was no longer serving me. It was time for me to wake up and embrace this new direction.
In the weeks following the reading, I’ve felt more hopeful and motivated. I’ve started exploring ideas for my future business and paying attention to the signs around me. This journey is just beginning, and I’m excited to see where it leads. For anyone reading this, know that sometimes the most unexpected turns can lead to the most profound transformations. Trust in the process and be open to the guidance that comes your way.
As soon as the veil was lifted, a light switch flipped in my mind. I went from feeling sad and lost to feeling an overwhelming sense of relief and happiness. The sadness that had gripped me for three days vanished, replaced by an unparalleled sense of hope and excitement about the possibilities ahead.
I had never felt so optimistic about the future. This new path, as uncertain as it was, felt right. It was as if a heavy burden had been lifted from my shoulders, allowing me to breathe freely and look forward with anticipation. The layoff, which had initially seemed like a devastating blow, now appeared to be a blessing in disguise—a necessary step toward a brighter, more fulfilling future.
The medium’s reading and the messages from my spiritual guides had ignited a fire within me. I felt empowered to embrace the changes and pursue the new opportunities unfolding. The idea of starting a business related to herbs, tea, or healing resonated deeply with me, and I was eager to explore this new venture.
Every day since then, I’ve felt a renewed sense of purpose and direction. I’ve been researching, planning, and dreaming about what my future business could look like. The fear and uncertainty that once clouded my vision have been replaced with clarity and confidence. I know this journey won’t be easy, but I am ready to face the challenges head-on, guided by the assurance that I am on the right path.
This experience has taught me the incredible power of perspective and the importance of being open to the unexpected. Sometimes, what seems like an end is just the beginning of something wonderful. And with my family's guidance and my newfound determination, I am ready to make this new chapter of my life the best one yet.
