You’ll hear stories and guidance for those moments when you pause and catch yourself thinking things like: “I used to have such a big imagination as a kid — what happened?” Or when you wonder, “Can I really trust myself?” Maybe you notice how often you’ve been silencing yourself just to fit in, or feel that surge of inspiration but don’t know where to begin.
Each episode meets you in those moments of doubt and “where do I even start?” feelings, helping you reconnect with your spark, trust yourself, and take simple, practical steps to express who you really are.

Intro to Crystal Reiki with My Go-To Crystal Expert
Have you ever wondered:
✨ What do I even need to know about crystals?
✨ How can a little stone help me heal?
✨ What’s the difference between Reiki and Crystal Reiki?
✨ How do I know what crystal is right for me?
You’re not alone — and today’s episode is going to give you some clarity, insight, and a little sparkle ✨
I’m sitting down with my go-to crystal expert, Monica Stout, a certified Crystal Reiki Master whose own healing journey began after the pandemic. What started as an intuitive reiki session turned into a deep calling to work with energy and the earth's natural gifts. Now, she helps clients heal through remote and in-person sessions and offers beautiful custom crystal packages.
We talk about:
- Her personal journey with awakening, energy work, and healing
- How crystals can support physical, emotional, and spiritual alignment
- What Crystal Reiki is (and how it differs from traditional Reiki)
- Practical tips for choosing your first (or next) crystal
- Why crystals are like “quiet little friends” on your healing journey 💎
Whether you're crystal-curious or already building your collection, this episode will ground you, inspire you, and maybe even open up your energy a bit more.
👉 Grab your journal and your favorite stone — you’re going to want to take notes for this one.
