Ready Set Reiki

A special Ready Set Reiki as I circle back around to past guests to find out what they up to now? What if the dream you manifested finally arrives—and the person you are now no longer wants it? We open up about divine timing, the courage to pivot, and choosing alignment over obligation. With Rose: teacher, energy alchemist, podcaster, and breast cancer warrior—we explore practical ways to reclaim your throne: a grounded physical sanctuary and an inner seat of intuitive power that guides every yes and no.

We dive into seasons of life and the tools that keep you centered through each one. Journaling becomes a compass for foggy months, revealing patterns you miss in the rush of parenting, caregiving, and career shifts. We talk about adding timelines to intentions, blessing them with Reiki, and still practicing discernment when they land. Burnout gets honest airtime too: stepping back after big projects, ignoring comparison culture, and building offers that feel organic—like workshops before long programs—so the work stays joyful and sustainable.

Teaching emerges as a surprising calling for many practitioners. You may start with sessions and discover your deepest impact is training others, amplifying healing across communities. We share stories of transformation, the value of retaking trainings with new teachers, and why collaboration beats competition—especially among women lifting one another’s work. Expect grounded takeaways: protect your pace, laugh often, write things down, and let adventure find you, whether that’s a new workshop or a month living in London. If you’re navigating a pivot or seeking your next step in Reiki, this conversation offers clarity, courage, and gentle direction.

A Journey of Self-Discovery and Healing

Rose's path to becoming an Energy Alchemist was shaped by life's challenges and triumphs. Before embracing her spiritual calling, she built a successful career in the corporate world, managing multi-million-dollar projects for Fortune 500 companies. However, it was during this time that she began her spiritual journey, turning to yoga, meditation, and Reiki to navigate personal struggles, including the loss of her mother.
A pivotal moment in Rose's life came during a Reiki session when she received a prophetic vision of having twins—a vision that materialized eight years later with the birth of her identical twin boys. This powerful experience not only gave her hope and guidance but also deepened her commitment to energy work and healing. 
Rose's dedication to energy healing deepened when her twin sons were diagnosed with a medical condition. Drawing on her skills as a Reiki Master & Teacher, she used energy work to support their healing process. This experience solidified her belief in the transformative power of Reiki and energy work, inspiring her to share her knowledge with others.
Empowering Others

What if healing could be simpler, kinder, and closer to the bedside than we think? Tracy sits down with Teresa Morris a registered nurse, midwife, hospice caregiver, and longtime Reiki teacher—to map a path from conventional care to energy work that feels practical, ethical, and deeply human. Teresa shares how meditation led her to the Reiki symbols, why she shifted from Healing Touch to Reiki’s non-directive intelligence, and how quiet intention can ease a hospital room without calling attention to itself.

The heart of the conversation is grief and growth. After losing her mother, Teresa turned to the chakra system to understand pain at its source, pairing Reiki with clear questions that help clients locate beliefs, patterns, and relief. She walks through accessible tools with journaling before and after meditation, using lavender to calm the limbic system, grounding with crystaland offers clinicians discreet ways to support patients: holding a hand with intention, blessing medication, sending distant Reiki after a shift. No theatrics, no gatekeeping, just compassion with structure.

We also cover what makes a good psychic or teacher; communication, integrity, and the courage to empower rather than upsel. 
. If you’re considering a pivot into spiritual work, Teresa’s roadmap is clear: ask why, meditate, journal, research, trust your gut, and move at your own pace. Energy follows attention; when we choose kindness, rooms change. Listen, learn, and bring one simple practice into your day. If this conversation resonates, subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review to help more listeners find the show and consider booking a session with Teresa.

What if your calm isn’t missing—it’s trapped under old emotions that your nervous system is ready to release? We sit down with Michelle Ward, a certified self-sabotage and Emotion Code practitioner, to unpack how stored emotional energy shapes habits, health, and the stories we live by. From early conditioning and religious taboos to quantum-informed perspectives, we explore the real-world shifts that happen when protection patterns melt, and your heart feels safe again.

We trace Michelle’s evolution from nutrition coaching into energy work and talk candidly about the moment thinking harder stopped helping. She explains why belief isn’t required for results, how muscle testing can identify emotions ready to move, and what a “heart wall” is—and why dismantling it can transform connection, purpose, and self-worth. You’ll hear how this work complements therapy and medicine, and why subtle wins—less reactivity, softer self-talk, steadier boundaries—signalbigp change. For women over 45 navigating hormone shifts, identity transitions, and people-pleasing, Michelle offers practical ways to reprogram self-sabotage, including mirror work and gentle daily practices that build nervous system safety.

We also share reading recs like The Emotion Code, The Untethered Soul, Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself, and Women Who Run with the Wolves, plus how to find an aligned practitioner by feeling for resonance rather than chasing credentials. Michelle outlines her virtual services—from single Emotion Code sessions to heart wall releases and three-month coaching—designed to move you from talking about problems to releasing the energy that sustains them.

Ready to feel the difference between coping and clearing? Press play, then share your biggest takeaway and the one pattern you’re most ready to shift. If the conversation supports you, follow, rate, and review so more listeners can find their way here.
Michelle Ward is a testament to the transformative power of holistic health, embodying the deep,
personal journey of mind, body, and spirit renewal. As a Certified Holistic Health Coach, Certified Self
Sabotage Coach, Certified Emotion Code® Practitioner, wife, and mother of two daughters, her
wellness journey began in 1999 amid fertility challenges. Traditional treatments fell short, prompting
Michelle to embrace nutrition and lifestyle changes that not only resolved her issues but also sparked
a profound realization about the impact of nutrition on overall well-being.
Her personal breakthroughs led Michelle to earn a degree in nutrition and a Master of Science in
Coaching and Applied Nutrition. She started her coaching career in 2010, initially focusing on dietary
and lifestyle changes. However, she soon noticed a troubling pattern: clients were relapsing, unable
to maintain their new healthy lifestyles. This observation led to a pivotal shift in 2016, where Michelle
began to delve into the power of mindset, trapped emotional energy, and subconscious influences on
behavior.
Michelle’s own battles with self-sabotage—a struggle with alcohol, weight gain, and marital discord—
became the catalyst for a profound personal and professional transformation. By embracing and
mastering subconscious reprogramming techniques, including The Emotion Code®—a method used
to identify and release trapped emotions that influence behavior—Michelle not only reclaimed her
health, losing 25 pounds, and dramatically cutting body fat, but she also competed in a fitness competition

What happens when you strip Reiki down to what actually works? We sit with Nicholas Pearson—award-winning author, teacher, and lifelong student—to explore how simplicity, scholarship, and sincere practice can transform both our sessions and ourselves. Nicholas shares how “one Reiki” expresses through many systems without losing its center, why the precepts are more than nice words on a wall, and how surrender often invites the most profound change.

We dig into the living history of Reiki with new research that traces transnational roots and dispels narrow myths. Nicholas shows how a flexible, evidence-informed approach strengthens tradition rather than weakens it, and he offers clear criteria for choosing teachers who practice what they preach. We also step into Let Animals Lead, a mindful, consent-driven way to support animals that subtly reshapes how we show up for people too—less fixing, more presence, deeper care.

For practitioners curious about integrating tools, Nicholas outlines an ethical path for using crystals without muddying the work: keep hands-on time clean, disclose add-ons, and let stones support presence instead of becoming the main act. He also previews Reiki Rituals, his forthcoming book on the embodied actions—gassho, precepts, hands-on healing, sacred space—that reliably open the door to non-ordinary awareness. Across lineages, he finds a common heart that invites collaboration over competition.

If you’re ready to refine your practice, unlearn a few myths, and reconnect with the core of Reiki—clarity, humility, and daily devotion—this conversation will meet you where you are. Subscribe, share with a fellow practitioner, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway so we can keep building this thoughtful, heart-centered community.
Nicholar has been pursuing my love of all things related to crystals, rocks, minerals, and gemstones for the past three decades.
Combining my background in mineral science with my love of healing, spirituality, and folklore, I strive to illustrate how and why crystals can change our lives. 
As an avid Reiki practitioner and shihan (師範, “instructor” or “Reiki master”), I’m also passionate about understanding the roots of the system of Reiki so we can better appreciate where Reiki can take us.
My books and classes help bridge the scientific with the spiritual, the philosophical with the practical, the mundane with the mystical. I want to empower you to take your physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being into your own hands, with information you can trust.
Early three decades ago, my childhood love for rocks was transformed when my grandfather gave me my very first proper mineral specimen: quartz from Hot Springs, Arkansas. From that day onward, my love for rocks and minerals crystallized into something special.
I pursued school with academic rigor, diving headfirst into all areas of study. Science emerged as one of my favorite subjects; even as a child,d I read voraciously about natural history, earth science, ecology, and biology. Early on, I found another love in the realm of folklore, mythology, and world religion.
Before long,ong I came to understand that both science and spirituality describe a lot of the same phenomena: one through the tangible and quantifiable, the other through meaning and metaphor. Ever since, I’ve strived to be a bridge between the two, allowing each one to enrich my understanding of the other.
I attended Stetson University on a music scholarship with the intention of being a musi

What if the first step to real healing isn’t hustle or “positive vibes,” but feeling safe enough to hear yourself again? That question threads through our conversation with Carolyn Wood, a certified heart healer, hypnotherapist, and mind coach whose path from early loss to purposeful service will resonate with anyone navigating burnout, grief, or the quiet ache of “not enough.”

We start with Carolyn’s turning point—recognizing a lifetime of anxiety that felt normal until it didn’t—and move into the practices that changed her trajectory: rapid transformational therapy, EFT tapping, Reiki, and heart healing. She breaks down what hypnotherapy actually is (heightened focus, not mind control), why subconscious memories can freeze at the age we first felt an emotion, and how revisiting those moments with compassion frees the adult self to choose differently. Along the way, we tackle the scarcity mindset, the hidden loops steering our decisions, and the body’s role in carrying what the mind avoids.

Carolyn also shares the inspiration behind her High Vibe Besties Book Club and her new Feel Good Academy, designed to start where most programs don’t—creating safety—then exploring core wounds like enoughness, love, worth, acceptance, and trust. We swap practical tools for handling daily triggers, discuss what to look for in a practitioner who honors heart, mind, body, and soul, and highlight books that actually land: The Four Agreements, Anatomy of the Spirit, and The Alchemist. Expect grounded insights, gentle challenges, and takeaways you can use immediately.

If this conversation moves you, tap follow, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a review to help others find the show. What belief are you ready to release today?

Carolyn is a certified HeartHealer️™, Mindset Mentor, Hypnotherapist, Rapid Transformational Therapy️™ practitioner, and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) practitioner.
She offers a unique blend of healing modalities tailored to assist you in breaking through limiting beliefs, releasing and letting go of unhealthy anxieties, stress, and overwhelm; and empowering you to show up as the confident, amazing woman that you desire to be.
