Episode: Living an Illuminated Life: Signs, Angels, God & The Universe Guiding You with Laura Lynne Jackson Pt 2

Date: December 23, 2025
Host: Jamie Kern Lima
Guest: Laura Lynne Jackson

Overview

This episode is a deep, inspiring exploration of how to notice, trust, and work with signs from loved ones, the universe, God, and your "team of light.” Jamie and acclaimed psychic medium and author Laura Lynne Jackson discuss practical strategies for receiving guidance, overcoming self-doubt, and living a purpose-driven, love-filled, “illuminated life.” Warm, accessible, and rich with personal stories, the conversation encourages listeners—whether believers or skeptics—to open themselves to the idea that they are never truly alone and can learn to create a personal language of signs for guidance and reassurance.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

The Reality and Language of Signs

• Everyone can receive signs from the universe or loved ones on the other side—no one is ever ignored. (07:07, 16:13)
• Signs can take many forms: flickering lights, electronic glitches, coins, animals (especially those that sense electromagnetic fields), songs, repeated numbers, phrases, or even “lookalike” strangers crossing your path. (07:07–08:39)
• Practical method to ask for signs:
  • Write down the exact sign you request and who it’s from (creature, number sequence, song, or phrase). Make signs specific (e.g., "purple elephant" instead of just "elephant"). (08:39–12:01)
  • Repeat requests if needed, and the “monkey mind” will often demand additional validations—trust grows with experience. (12:01–12:18)

“When you learn to trust in the signs, when you create that language, you are now open to this beautiful path of illuminated guidedness.” — Laura Lynne Jackson, [01:02]

Dealing with Doubt—Yours and Others'

• Self-doubt is natural: Doubting guidance or signs is natural, but asking for repeated confirmation is okay and part of building trust. (12:01–12:18, 34:51)
• Share stories to build community: Sharing your experiences helps others open up—what begins with vulnerability turns into a “chain of light.” (12:18–13:48)
• Faith and signs are complementary: Exploring signs need not conflict with faith. All religious paths are “vehicles to understand God and the love that God is." Fear limits us, so choose love and curiosity. (02:46–03:08, 51:17–52:48)

"Every decision we ever make here is either a path of fear or love.” — Laura Lynne Jackson, [02:55]

Signs from Pets and Ancestors

• Pets send signs too, often more overtly than humans. (19:01–19:52)
• Your “team of light” is vast: Everyone has 10,000+ ancestors ("grandmothers") who can be sources of guidance—even if you had no close relationship with any one person. (02:02, 32:29–34:51)
• We are welcomed by loved ones and a team of light when we cross over; the only thing we take is love. (02:35, 44:56)

"Nobody crosses alone. That's absolutely true. We're all greeted by a team of light on the other side. And what I've learned is the only thing we take with us is the love." — Laura Lynne Jackson, [02:35]

The 21-Day Challenge: Building the Habit of Connection

• 21 days to new openness: For the next 21 days, actively ask for signs, record each moment of spiritual connection, and share them to quiet your doubts and strengthen trust. (35:25–37:09)

“By the end of 21 days, your monkey mind is gonna sit down and shut up. That’s what’s gonna happen. And then you’re on a guided path.” — Laura Lynne Jackson, [37:09]

Energy, Auras, and Protecting Your Space

• Everyone has an aura (biofield), affected by your thoughts, environment, and those around you. Setting positive intentions influences your personal energy. (38:28–40:51)
• Protect yourself with “white lighting”: Visualize a lake of sparkling white light coming down over your body, forming a protective, clearing force field. Breathwork helps anchor spiritual energy in your body. (46:04–48:13)
• Be mindful of your thoughts: Every thought is energy—consciously choose to put more light into the world. (46:04–48:13)

“Every thought we have either puts more light into the world or adds darkness.” — Laura Lynne Jackson, [46:04]

Trusting Your Own Guidance and Intuition

• Everyone has these intuitive abilities: Whether you identify as a psychic or not, everyone can tune in and build this “language” with practice. (57:36, 65:16)
• Trust your “gut knowing” even when it goes against what others think. Pursuing your inner guidance may seem unconventional, but it’s often how destinies are fulfilled. (57:36–61:21)

"There are so many things in my life that never would have happened if I would have done what everyone else around me was doing... If you feel it, try it in your life." — Jamie Kern Lima, [57:36]

Guidance is for Everyone—No Special Access Required

• Laura’s journey: She shifted from secret psychic medium to national teacher due to a series of “guided” real-world experiences and help from the people (and signs) placed in her life. (61:21–65:15)
• No one needs a “specialist” to connect to loved ones or guidance—everyone can develop this direct relationship. (65:42–66:16)

“I really look at myself like a teacher still, I’m just teaching people to access this, right? But nobody ever really needs me.” — Laura Lynne Jackson, [65:42]
