QUICK SUMMARY

Laura spoke to Olivia Scott, an energy healer and coach and they had a super fun conversation (from inside the van!).

They chat about her journey from The Raw Kitchen to reiki energy healing and business coaching, and so much more.

Laura has had two sessions of reiki with Olivia and it's such an incredible healing modality that she wanted to learn more about it. Olivia pairs energy healing alongside intuitive readings so it’s an avenue to try especially if you’re at a crossroads in life.

Have you ever wondered how energy healing works? Laura ask Olivia in this interview and she breaks it down for us. Laura loved Olivia’s answer in particular to her question about how she connects authentically with other people. She has found that the key is to get to know yourself first. When you are coming from a place of knowing yourself, being vulnerable allows you to create a safe space within your relationships for deep, authentic connection.

Topics they cover:

  • How reiki was a natural progression of raw cooking, moving from working with the energetics of food to working with the energies of people. The original influence into spirituality for Olivia came from her Grandmother who lived off grid on Rakino Island.

  • We talk about staying away from labelling your eating, and allowing yourself the freedom to eat what you want, to follow the intuitive guidance from your body!

  • I ask Olivia how reiki actually works!

  • Olivia is passionate about creating beautiful products that can help us become more purposeful with our daily practices and connect deeply to our body.

  • Olivia loves alone time to process emotions and thoughts when she’s scattered.

  • The key to connecting really authentically with others around you is get to know yourself first. When you are coming from a place of knowing yourself and being vulnerable allows you to create a safe space within your relationships for deep, authentic connection.

  • Gratitude for the food we eat, growing your own herbs and veggies and preparing it with love as a way to connect to the earth.

  • We talk about lessons from relationships - sometimes we can learn through love, and sometimes we can learn through pain. Olivia tells us about a recent relationship that helped her expand and encouraged her to contemplate who she is (we’re asking the big questions around here!).
