In this raw, collaborative conversation, I sit down with Tracy Searight - a Reiki & yoga teacher, energy behind Ready Set Reiki podcast & owner of Feather Sister, to explore what actually matters when choosing a Reiki training and teacher – whether you are one, or seek one.

We don't hold back.

From red flags in unethical training (one-hour "master" certifications, attunements, training without client consent) to the real cost of bad training on your soul, we dig into the questions you should be asking but might not know to ask.

What makes this different?

This isn't a lecture. It's two practitioners having a genuine conversation about:

-Why credentials alone don't guarantee safety or alignment

-How to trust your intuition when something feels off

-Why Spiritual guidance is often over looked and misunderstood

-The gift of being rejected by gatekeeping communities (and how it redirects you toward your real work)

-Reciprocity, bartering, and the ethics of charging for Reiki

-Building your own community instead of waiting for permission from mainstream structures

-How the universe meets you when you move with a pure heart and intention of service, without hanging yourself at the altar of giving freely

The throughline: When you prioritise alignment over authority, connection over hierarchy, and discernment over credentials - everything changes.

For aspiring and qualified practitioners: This conversation is permission to trust yourself, ask the uncomfortable questions, and build Reiki practice on your own terms - not the terms of gatekeepers or hierarchies.
