Reiki Radio Podcast, The Energetic Alchemist
A long-running podcast offering grounded conversations on Reiki and other spiritual practices, focusing on the lived, embodied experience of healing.
Reiki Radio is a space for grounded spiritual conversations that help listeners find language for their energetic experiences. Hosted by veteran practitioner Yolanda Williams, the show blends solo episodes on applying practices like Reiki, Hermeticism, and astrology with long-form interviews with fellow healers and authors. After a period of focusing on interviews, the show has recently returned to its original format of solo episodes, with interviews now conducted live on YouTube. The podcast serves as a doorway for listeners into deeper self-work and transformation.
“With a history stretching back to 2013, the podcast's longevity and the host's deep experience as a practitioner and teacher set it apart. Its distinctive feature is the focus on "living the practice"—how energetic principles manifest in real-life situations, from grief to career pivots.”

What you'll be asked on this show
Yolanda begins interviews by reading a detailed, appreciative biography of her guest, establishing a tone of respect. She builds rapport by sharing her own reactions and personal experiences, framing questions that are both empathetic and probing. Her questions often explore the guest's origin story and the 'how' and 'why' behind their process, focusing on the transition from 'doing' a practice to 'living' it. She skillfully summarizes or reflects on a guest's point to create a natural transition to the next line of inquiry, often closing by asking how listeners can connect with the guest's work.
The host, Yolanda, has a warm, facilitative, and reflective style. Solo episodes are structured like teachings, while interviews feel like supportive conversations. Episodes often open with the signature greeting, "Hello beautiful alchemists," and close with, "Journey in love."
