Ready Set Reiki

Two hundred episodes doesn’t happen by accident. It happens when you keep showing up, especially after grief, fear, and the moments where you wonder if you can even speak with confidence again. I’m Tracy Seawright, and this anniversary reflection pulls back the curtain on why Ready Set Reiki exists, how it grew, and what I’ve learned from building a Reiki and energy healing podcast rooted in service rather than sales.

I share the surprising push that started it all, including a “pay-to-play” media pitch that didn’t sit right, and why I chose to create a free platform where Reiki practitioners can share their stories at no cost. Along the way, I talk about my own Reiki journey, from early exposure to Reiki, to returning during the pandemic, to moving through deep grief and rebuilding confidence through daily self-Reiki, prayer, and consistency. If you’ve ever felt called to help others while still healing yourself, you’ll recognize that path.

We also get practical. I break down what Reiki is (universal life force energy), why it’s a stress-reducing complementary therapy, and how to start in a way that feels safe and clear. We talk about choosing between in-person and online Reiki sessions, finding an ethical Reiki practitioner, asking what a session includes, and exploring Reiki training options like Usui Reiki and Holy Fire Reiki. I also name common misconceptions, explain intuitive vs systematic styles, and remind you that Reiki respects free will.

If this resonates, listen through, share it with someone who needs calm, and then subscribe and leave a review so more people can find Reiki, self-healing tools, and supportive community. What part of your journey needs more consistency right now?

Your home can look fine on the outside and still feel wrong in your body. If you’ve ever walked into your own space and felt your shoulders tighten, your energy drop, or your mind start racing, you’re not imagining it. I sit down with Lisa Morton, a feng shui master teacher, holistic interior designer, and Reiki master, to talk about what “aligned at home” really means when real life is messy, stressful, and loud. 

Lisa shares her journey from designing luxury private jet interiors to finding energy healing through Reiki during a period of burnout, anxiety, and perfectionism. We talk about the moment Reiki finally made her feel lighter, why that experience pushed her to train, and how she began experimenting with Reiki in houses before going deeper into feng shui and distance space clearing. Along the way, we explore what to look for in a Reiki practitioner or teacher, and why genuine connection matters more than doing everything “the right way.” 

From there we get practical. Lisa breaks down instinctive feng shui, how a bagua map can overlay your floor plan like an energetic compass, and why virtual feng shui consultations can be surprisingly powerful with nothing more than a conversation and a simple layout. We also answer listener questions about her Intuitive Home Method, a 30-day transformation that helps you look past décor and into what your body and family actually need. And yes, we go there: cacti, poison arrows, and how sharp shapes can subtly stress your nervous system over time. 
Lisa Morton is a designer, Feng Shui master teacher, and the creator of the Intuitive Home Method. For 20+ years she's transformed homes, businesses, and even luxury private aircraft interiors. Her superpower is blending grounded design with distance space clearings and Feng Shui so your home supports your health, momentum, and joy. Lisa works with clients worldwide, is the host of the Feng Shui Living Podcast and the author of Aligned at Home, a book on creating deeply aligned, high-vibe homes.

Your body can spot the truth long before your mind can explain it, and that might be the missing piece in your Reiki journey. I sit down with Jen T Peterson, a self-trust igniter and shamanic Reiki master teacher, to talk about what happens when “strategy” is not the problem and the real issue is internal noise, fear, and energy that is not even yours to carry. 

We get honest about one of the biggest Reiki misconceptions: the idea that a practitioner is “doing Reiki” to someone. Jen breaks down how Reiki healing really works when we focus on being a clear channel for source energy, and why forcing outcomes can create more stress, more burnout, and more confusion. From visibility and leadership to decision making and momentum, we explore how self-trust becomes practical when you learn to read clear body signals like expansion and contraction. 

We also go deep on boundaries for empaths, coaches, and healers. We talk about how overgiving knocks your energy out of balance, why “feel the fear and do it anyway” can backfire, and what it looks like to release fear first so you can be seen without self-abandonment. Plus, Jen shares unforgettable stories from equine-assisted coaching at a horse rescue, including moments where horses seem to identify energy blocks faster than the humans in the room. 
Jenn T Peterson is the Self-Trust Igniter™ who works with women when internal noise disrupts clarity, decisions, and momentum. She’s brought in when strategy isn’t the issue, something beneath it is interfering with visibility, boundaries,s or leadership. Jenn defines visibility as being seen and leadership as staying true once you are. Her work restores clarity so decisions hold and women move forward without force or self-abandonment.

Reiki can sound mysterious until you hear what it looks like in real life: a teenager with a headache, a mother places her hands, tingling starts, sleep takes over, and the pain is gone. I’m Tracy C. Wright, and I’m joined by Archit Shivastov, a Mumbai-based multimodality healer with a foundation in Reiki, to unpack how energy healing becomes practical, repeatable, and deeply personal even for people raised in science-minded environments.

We talk openly about Reiki skepticism and the biggest misconception I hear from listeners: that you must feel energy right away for Reiki to “count.” Archit shares how he meets doubt with compassion, why Reiki is showing up more in hospitals and schools, and what matters most when choosing a Reiki practitioner: respect for free will, no grand promises, and a space where you can speak without judgment. If you’re navigating a spiritual awakening, we also dig into divine timing, intuition, and why comparing your gifts to someone else’s path can shut your own growth down.

Archit also explains how he blends Reiki with Bach flower remedies, sound healing, and graphology (handwriting and signature analysis) to customize support for the whole person. One story stands out: using Bach flower remedies to address emotional roots after Reiki progress stalls, leading to major improvement for a child with eczema. We close with somatic healing, nervous system care, Reiki for senior pets, and a powerful reminder that human connection still matters in the age of AI. 
Archit Srivastav is a multi-modality healer with a foundation in Reiki,
integrating Bach Flower Remedies to support physical, mental and
emotional well-being. With over 5 years of experience, he has helped
clients worldwide find lasting relief from pain, stress, and chronic
conditions. His approach combines compassionate guidance with
practical tools, creating space for deep healing and balance

Feeling stretched thin and strangely numb at the same time? We sit down with nurse, coach, and Reiki practitioner Kathleen Ahern to explore what happens when caregiving collides with chronic stress—and how a return to caring science and somatic awareness can reset the system. Kathleen shares how burnout showed up as literal pain, why a five-minute Reiki tune-up changed her trajectory, and what trusting herself did for her work, relationships, and daily calm.

We dig into myths around Reiki with plain talk, using the wind as a metaphor for unseen but obvious effects, and spotlight the role of intention in shaping outcomes. Kathleen walks us through her search for the right teacher and why nervous system safety matters more than credentials alone. From distance attunements that opened unexpected imagery to a clinical encounter that taught her what not to accept, her stories underline a core lesson: the container is the practice. You will also hear a clear, accessible toolkit for high-stress moments—temperature shifts, brief movement, paced breathing, and progressive muscle relaxation—plus how she blends Reiki, tarot, and lifestyle medicine for tailored support.

Listener questions push us further: why modern work keeps us keyed up, how to build an “emergency calm plan,” and why self-trust moves us from fear to love. Kathleen shares tiered self-care for green, yellow, and red days so rest becomes doable, not aspirational. Along the way, we swap book recommendations, talk boundaries, and reframe progress as compassionate consistency. If you’re craving grounded spirituality, practical mental health tools, and a warm reminder that you’re not a human doing, this conversation is your pause button.

Join us, then share the practice you’ll try today. If the episode resonates, follow the show, leave a review, and pass it to a friend who needs a gentler way to begin again.
Kathleen Ahern helps overthinking, stressed out adults from all walks of life to come home to themselves through somatic practices, energy work, and writing—offering tools to build inner trust, create joy, and roll with the punches.
