In this episode, we have special guests Kelly Jean Badgley and Christopher Driscoll joining us. We talk about their spiritual journey, Kelly’s website, Peace Room Love and how they combine Reiki and ASMR.  Kelly Jean Badgley is a voiceover artist, Reiki Practitioner, and online content creator. A second-generation Reiki Master, her Reiki training began in Boise, Idaho with her mother Jenny Stinson of The Peace Room where Kelly Jean received Reiki I & II training. After experiencing the profound, life-changing effects of Reiki for herself and others, Kelly Jean continued her training, which now include her receiving Holy Fire® III Reiki Master, Holy Fire® III Karuna® Master, Animal Reiki Master, Medical Reiki Master, and Reiki Drumming. Kelly Jean’s reiki practice and classes are informed by a lifelong curiosity and appreciation for health and wellness, including hatha yoga training and certifications, spiritual practices such as Nichiren Buddhism and meditation, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) Tapping, and more recently, remote viewing. Outside of Reiki, Kelly Jean’s voiceover work includes animation, commercials, audiobooks, online corporate trainings, IVRs and voicemail greetings, podcasts, meditations, etc. Some of Kelly’s clients include Netflix, Nickelodeon, Pandora/Sirius XM, etc.  She also voices and produces the podcast 5 mins of Peace. Most recently, Kelly Jean has blended her experience with Reiki and voiceover to produce  This ASMR Reiki Life, a YouTube based Reiki Channel that brings together Reiki healing experiences with the phenomenon known as ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response). Combining the two modalities into a single experience is an obvious, albeit challenging and rewarding new avenue for Kelly Jean and she is enjoying learning more about the online format and how to leverage it for her Reiki practice.  Website:https: //www.thepeaceroom.love/about-kelly-jean Website:https: //www.kellyjeanbadgley.com/ YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/@ThisASMRReikiLife  Christopher Driscoll is associate professor of religion studies at Lehigh University in Bethlehem, PA. His books and teaching take place at the intersections of religion and spirituality, race and social identity, and the power of belief and disbelief. He is the author of numerous books on topics such as race and religion, hip hop culture, and mountaineering religions; and, he has lectured extensively across the U.S. and internationally in universities, religious and spiritual communities, and various corporate settings. Having spent the first half of his adult life believing himself a skeptic and an atheist, a single distance reiki session several years ago transformed his life. Driscoll had spent many years using the tools of scholarship to try and convince others that belief in God or forces we cannot see was dangerous and should be avoided. He is now in the process of unlearning and relearning how to use those tools in order to empower others both inside and outside of academia. His collaboration with Kelly Jean Badgley, This ASMR Reiki Life, is one example of this process unfolding, and he is exploring film and online video for the presentation of his work. His latest book, White Devils, Black Gods: Race, Masculinity, and Religious Codependency (Bloomsbury, 2022), chronicles much of his recent personal transformation that took place alongside his research into a little known black American spiritual community called the Nation of Gods and Earths. While the book began as a way to tell the peculiar story of how race and gender and history impact this community’s belief that the white man is the devil, it evolved to include a deeply vulnerable account of Driscoll’s own personal growth made possible by an unflinching confrontation with the devil within.  Website: https://www.christopherdriscollphd.com The Reiki Lifestyle® Podcast: The podcast where we talk about all things Reiki!
