In this episode, we pull back the curtain on Reiki. What actually happens in a session? How does energy communicate? Why do some sessions feel deeply emotional while others create profound shifts in direction, purpose, and healing? I shares stories from real sessions that have stayed with me over the years, explore the role of free will in energy work, and explain why Reiki is less about being "read" and more about remembering how to listen to yourself again. This is a conversation about healing, intuition, grief, love, trust, and the limitless potential of reconnecting with your own energy.

In this episode:

• What Reiki actually is (and what it isn't)
• Why energy workers often don't remember sessions afterward
• The difference between "doing healing" and facilitating healing
• Why participation and integration matter in energy work
• Reiki, chakras, auras, and energetic communication
• The role of free will in intuitive and mediumship work
• Ethical boundaries in energy work and spiritual practice
• How spirit communication can support healing when invited
• The importance of approaching energy work with humility, reverence, and curiosity

Summit takeaway:
"Your guides can only lead you where you're willing to go." Reiki isn't about someone else having your answers. It's about clearing enough noise that you can hear your own.
