Lisa and Laurea talk about “counting the cost” when making difficult choices and considering what a decision may affect emotionally, mentally, spiritually, financially, and in relationships. Laurea also reflects on a recent period when she shared personal struggles publicly, including the fear, shame, self-doubt, and mixed reactions that came with being visible online.

They discuss the tension between openness and privacy, and how social media can make internal struggles feel more exposed. Also, they talk about truth-telling, authenticity, and old beliefs about worthiness and shame that can continue to shape how we see ourselves.

Laurea closes by sharing that she's doing better now and relying on support from therapy, friends, and other practitioners and broadens the idea of counting the cost to other major life decisions, including relationships and big moves, and notes that the hardest choice is not always the wrong one.

In this episode, Lisa and Laurea speak with Lynn Blos, Reiki master, hypnotherapist and coach as well as the founder of Healed by the Light.

They begin with a simple question: what is Reiki? Lynn explains it as universal life force energy and describes it as a practice that quiets the mind and supports peace, balance, gratitude, and healing. She also outlines the history of Reiki and says it is both an energy method and a way of living.

They compare Usui Reiki and Angelic Reiki and Lynn describes Usui Reiki as grounding and traditional, with symbols used for stuck energy and distance healing. She explains Angelic Reiki as connecting to angelic energy, and says she often combines both approaches depending on the session and the client.

A major part of the conversation focuses on angels and intuition. Lynn shares that she has worked with angels since childhood and says she learned early to ask for their help. They discuss how she and Lisa use angelic guidance in sessions, how people can feel the presence of that energy, and how calling in help can strengthen trust in intuition.

Also discussed is connecting to the higher self. Lynn describes a daily practice of grounding, meditating, asking questions, and journaling. She says she now spends more of her work helping others connect to their own higher self through hypnosis and guided sessions.

In this episode Lisa and Laurea discuss consent as it relates to energy work, physical touch, and spiritual practices and begin by asking whether energy should ever be sent to someone without permission, and agree that consent is essential.

The ladies talk about examples from yoga, Reiki, and other healing settings, including adjustments or interventions that can feel invasive when they are done without asking. They also share personal experiences of receiving work without consent and how unsettling that felt.

Laurea then extends the conversation to animals, babies, children, and people who cannot consent directly, such as someone in a coma. In those cases, she suggests asking permission from caregivers and from the person’s higher self or subconscious, and both note that they do this before offering any healing or communication.

They also discuss mediumship and spontaneous messages from spirit or animals and say that when information comes through unexpectedly, you still need to be careful about whether and how to share it, and first ask the living person whether they want to receive it.

Another topic is working with someone’s subconscious during energy sessions and checking whether a person actually needs help at that time, and Laurea shares an example where the subconscious indicated that no further work was needed and the body was already processing what it needed to process.

Lisa brings up the topic of using energy in spaces or situations, such as cars, conversations, or yoga classes, to support clear communication or safety and they close by emphasizing personal space and the importance of asking before touching anyone, including in medical settings.
