Spirit & Soul Healing Podcast

Be a Featured Guest for a Reading or Healing Session on the Podcast

Hi! Thank you for your interest in receiving an energy healing session or reading on the Spirit & Soul Healing Podcast.

By sharing our experience with other healers, lightworkers and those actively healing, you are offering a gift to humanity. Such experiences inspire awareness and provide insights into authentic healing moments. They also share a view into what to expect in a remote healing session.

This opportunity is for a 45-60 minute session offered at a reduced fee. The exchange financially supports the podcast’s production costs while giving guests an opportunity for a special experience at a discounted rate.

The exchange for a reading / healing session on the podcast is $144. Standard sessions and rates can be found here. Podcast healing and reading sessions are offered at a discounted rate and in an exchange for a review on Apple Podcast, Amazon Music or Audible.

Examples of past sessions can be found here. Below are some key details and information. Please review and submit the requested information if you resonate with this opportunity.

Sessions are filmed in advance through Zoom video and may be released at any time in the future through video and audio formats.

Guests are requested to sit in camera view during the conversation portion and sit, recline, or lay down in view of the camera during the healing portion.

Our intention is to work with energy therapy modalities in your session. However, messages that flow through will also be shared.

Sessions can be a deeply private experience. In the case that exceptionally personal or deeply private information is revealed, your session may be edited by the discretion of the podcast team to omit certain details.

Please know that by volunteering you give permission for Amy Sikarskie, Spirit & Soul Healing Podcast & Spirit School, LLC to share your audio and video in free public and paid settings.

Steps To Apply For Your Session

Prepare Your Sound and Video Equipment

Sound and video quality are important. To verify that our connection and filming environments are conducive to a session, I am requesting a sample video using the same equipment that you plan on using, in the same environment, with the same lighting.

Zoom: I use Zoom to record both audio and video with podcast guests. Please create a free account at http://zoom.com/ download any software and practice using it one or two times.

Strong WIFI: A strong signal will make all of the difference. Zoom recommends a speed of

3.8Mbps/3.0Mbps (up/down) or greater for our 1:1 call. You can test your speed at www.speedtest.net

Other tips to enhance your connection are to:

• Close out of background programs like web pages and your email

• Disconnecting unused devices from the wifi.

Sound Quality The sound quality is especially important for podcasts. The following tips will help ensure quality sound.

Zoom Settings: Zoom has different audio settings that will help filter out sounds like your A/C and distant noises. Please check your audio and video by doing a test video.

Mic & Headphones: The computer speakers and mic are not optimal. To optimize your audio the best connection is through your computer, using an external microphone and headphones. Earbuds with a mic will work. If using a corded microphone, please pin it to your shirt to avoid rubbing noises and keep long hair pulled back off of the mic. If you will be using a plug in mic and headphones, you can take them off during the healing portion if you lay down and they don't reach.

Phone Settings: If you’ll be using your phone, the speaker setting for the mic and speaker works well if you are sitting closer to the device to avoid echoing.

Video Space: Please be sure you have a comfortable and quiet space that does not echo or have background noise.

Lighting: Fancy lighting like ring lights are nice, but not necessary. And those of us sensitive to light find them challenging to use for an hour. If possible, the best lighting is facing an opened window. Please play around and check your lighting. You may also find some settings on Zoom.

Phone Settings: We will be filming in landscape mode. If using a phone or tablet, pleas have an adjustable stand that allows for landscape recording.

Background: A background with minimal objects is recommended. Clear items off of tables and dressers that may be behind you. Be mindful that lamps and bed posts aren't popping out of the top of your head, lol.. you get the idea.

Film a Sample Video

Even with the best intentions and testing of mic, wifi and video, there can be unexpected hiccups. Let’s work those out.

Please test, review and then send over a one minute sample video filmed in the room with the lighting and mic that you’ll be using.

Zoom can lag between speakers and have audio issues with pausing. Test your mic by sharing your name, pausing, and then telling me something about your day.

An example of what you can say

•“Hi I’m _______

•Pause 5 second

•"Today is ____

•Pause 5 second

•“ And … fill in the blank here …

Edits / Perfection? When working with Spirit, we set the space for a heart-centered experience. As your host, it's my intention and desire to help you feel at ease and have a deeply healing session. There will be no script. It is all real, raw and natural. This is what makes shared healing experience so special and provides an authentic, rich experience for those watching and listening to the replay.
