Episode 33: Grieving What Was Never Spoken: Adoption, Identity & Sacred Healing with Saidi Bess
In this episode of The Empowered Grief Journey Podcast, I sit down with Saidie Bess energy healer, sacred sexual guide, and founder of Sacred Sensual Alchemy for a raw and soul-expanding conversation about non-death grief, adoption trauma, and the spiritual path to reclaiming our most authentic selves.
Sadie shares how her grief journey began at birth, navigating the profound and often invisible losses of adoption the loss of biological connection, early emotional bonds, and identity. Her lived experience sheds light on a kind of grief we rarely talk about but that so many carry.
Together, we explore:
-
What it means to grieve a life you never got to live
-
The emotional and spiritual weight of adoption
-
Healing inherited and unacknowledged trauma
-
How reconnecting to sensuality and spiritual power can be a path to reclamation and joy
-
“People think adoption is a happy story. But for the baby, it begins with loss.”
This is a deeply moving episode about honoring unspoken grief and finding the courage to rise from what was never acknowledged.
