Coming Home to Your True Self: Reiki, Breathwork & Healing with Siri Baruc Thornton

Transformation often begins with a whisper—a subtle nudge from within that calls us to slow down, listen, and remember who we truly are. For high-achieving professionals caught in the endless cycle of doing, this whisper often gets drowned out by deadlines, expectations, and the relentless pursuit of more. In today's episode, I have the absolute joy of speaking with the luminous Siri Baruc Thornton, a Reiki Master of Masters, Akashic Records teacher, transformational breathwork facilitator, and founder of Sage + Blush Wellness. With over 26 years of experience, Siri is a gifted space holder who guides women, creatives, and soul-led leaders in deepening their spiritual gifts and reconnecting with their truth. Her retreats, certifications, and podcast, The Authentic Creative, have reached hearts across the globe—and her energy is as grounding as it is expansive. In our conversation, Siri shares:The power of Reiki as a vibrational and energetic healing toolHow breathwork becomes a conduit for deep emotional release and reconnectionWhy retreats are sacred portals for transformationWhat it means to hold space for others while honoring your own growthHer journey from childhood in a yoga ashram to Hollywood to leading spiritual retreats Siri also speaks beautifully about creating "a blanket of love" through intentional healing, and the magic that unfolds when women gather in nature to set down their roles and reconnect with their souls. If you've ever felt the pull to explore energy work, deepen your healing gifts, or receive nurturing support, you'll want to listen in.
