What Is a Lightworker, Really?

Simply, a lightworker is someone who carries a deep soul purpose to bring love, healing, and higher consciousness to the world.

If you are a lightworker, it means you are here to hold a vibration of love, light and higher perspectives – to counteract the old conflict-driven negativity and suffering in the world…

Most of all, by being yourself!

Lightworkers often feel a strong inner calling to uplift others and create positive change, even if they don’t fully understand why.

But here’s the thing: being a lightworker doesn’t necessarily mean having a spiritual job.

You can embody this purpose in any field or area of life, whether you’re teaching in a classroom, working in a corporate office, or raising a family. It’s the light you bring to the world that matters.

9 Signs You Might Be a Lightworker

If you’ve ever wondered if you’re meant to be a lightworker, here are some common signs:

1) You have felt different from others and often don’t fit into conventional expectations – especially where you grew up/in your family of origin.

2) You have a strong sense of compassion and are deeply affected by the pain or struggles of others.

3) You’re drawn to personal growth, spiritual practices, or healing modalities.

4) You may have experienced challenges, trauma, or adversity that gave you a deep empathy for others.

5) You often feel drained in environments filled with negativity or conflict.

6) You feel a quiet inner knowing that you’re here for a bigger purpose.

7) You sense that your energy positively impacts those around you, even in small ways.

8) You see angel numbers often, especially 144 or variations on this – it’s the number shown to “earth angels” who have volunteered to be here on the planet to help usher in a higher evolution in consciousness.

9) You have “spiritual gifts” – whether it’s being an empath, psychic/intuitive, artistic talents or healing abilities

What So Many People Don’t Realize: Your Light Can Shine Anywhere!

One of the biggest misconceptions about being a lightworker is that it requires a specific role or profession.

It often is, and many lightworkers are in fields that impact a large amount of people.

Examples are: alternative healing, tech, social media, entertainment, healthcare, education, therapy, animal welfare, innovation charities and more…

But the truth is, lightwork can happen anywhere!

Here are some examples:

A teacher who creates a nurturing space for their students, encouraging them to see their own potential.
(And maybe starts mentoring other teachers to embody a new and positive way of approaching education!)

A parent who lovingly raises their children, helping them grow into kind and conscious individuals.
(And maybe starts an online channel to help other parents with this process, sharing tips and positive approaches)

A friend who uplifts others with a kind word or presence during tough times.
(And maybe in turn becomes a “conscious influencer” who offers encouragement and validation to a large audience via the internet).

Even in environments that seem “un-spiritual”, your light has the power to ripple out and positively affect countless lives.

Fear, Self-Doubt, and Holding Back!

Many lightworkers feel blocked from fully stepping into their purpose due to fear or old conditioning.

You might have been told that you’re not capable, that your dreams are unrealistic, or that you don’t have what it takes.

But these limitations are not the truth of who you are.

They are outdated beliefs—often inherited or imposed by others—that can be cleared.

One of the most important steps for lightworkers is to release those blocks so your light can shine freely.

When you let go of fear and self-doubt, your purpose ignites and you can step into the powerful being you came here to be. (For help with this, go here)

Being Different Is Your Superpower!

Many lightworkers struggle with feeling different, like they don’t belong. But here’s the truth: you’re not here to fit in—you’re here to stand out.

You’re here to pave a new path, to be a visionary, and to create a reality that hasn’t existed before.

This requires being different. It’s not called being an outsider—it’s called being a leader.

Every lightworker’s journey is unique, and embracing your individuality is what allows your light to shine brightly.

My Own Journey as a Lightworker

For much of my life, I felt different but didn’t understand why.

I often felt like I didn’t belong, and I never realized there was such a profound spiritual reason for this until my very unexpected awakening as an adult.

That awakening changed everything. It allowed me to connect deeply with my soul purpose, to clear the old blocks holding me back, and to step into my path as a lightworker. 

Since I awakened and began this path, my life has changed for the better, beyond recognition.

If you’d like to read more about my awakening journey, you can find it here and in my book, The Universe Speaks, Are You Listening?.

Your Light Is Needed

If you’ve been feeling the pull to step into your lightwork, now is the time. Trust that you’re here for a reason.

Your light has the power to ripple out and create profound change in ways you may not yet realize.

Take the first step, no matter how small. Whether it’s a smile, a kind gesture, or simply holding a positive intention, you’re making a difference.

And as you clear the blocks and fears that have held you back, your light will only shine brighter!

Embrace Your Purpose

The world needs lightworkers now more than ever. You were born to shine, to uplift, and to bring love into places that need it most. And in turn, it will uplift you more than you probably ever expected.

As you impact the world with your light, it will fuel you with positivity and light in turn.

Remember, being a lightworker isn’t about perfection—it’s about intention and authenticity.

And the key to your personal light path very likely goes through exactly what you struggled with and suffered from the most in life…

Take a moment today to reflect: what does your soul feel called to do?
