In this episode of Diary of a Medium – Stories from the Spirit World, Em opens her heart about the week each year that holds both her birthday (2 September) and the anniversary of her dad’s passing (2017).

She names the void—that strange, in-between space where celebration and grief coexist—and shares how the body remembers, how Spirit supports, and how we can move through remembrance without being pulled under. If you’ve ever faced anniversaries, “what-ifs,” or the ache of missing someone on a special day, this episode will meet you exactly where you are.

What You’ll Learn

• The Void, named: Why the days between celebration and loss feel so intense—and how the body “keeps score.”

• Feeling to heal: Letting emotions move through without letting them anchor you down.

• Mediumship as healing: How evidential connection can soften the void for the living.

• Body-led decisions: Using your felt “yes/no” to navigate grief choices (ash scattering, memorials, marking anniversaries).
