Raising Lightworkers: Teaching Kids to Protect Their Energy and Heal the World

Raising Lightworkers: Teaching Kids to Protect Their Energy and Heal the World

Author: Will & Karen | Hosts of The Skeptic Metaphysicians - Awakening Seekers of Spiritual Growth & Expanded Consciousness October 20, 2025 Duration: 15:02
Ever wonder what happens when the next generation wakes up before we do? At Spirit Fest USA, we sat down with Kris Owsley, founder of Lightworkers United Training Academy, to talk about how she’s helping kids...and adults...embrace their gifts, manage energetic overload, and step fully into their purpose as healers in a world that desperately needs them.
 
This one hit home for us in a big way. Our own 14-year-old joined us off-camera during the interview, and what unfolded was a powerful, real-time teaching moment about how kids today are feeling everything; the energy, the emotions, the collective chaos, and don’t always know what to do with it. 

Kris broke it all down in a way that’s both practical and profound:
  • How to help kids recognize when the “bad vibes” they’re feeling aren’t theirs.
  • Why our words literally program our reality (and how to stop accidentally affirming what we don’t want).
  • How to protect your energy from “poison darts” being thrown by others.
  • The quick “reset” technique that instantly raises your vibration.
  • And why two simple words—“I AM”—might just be the key to reconnecting with Source itself.

This conversation goes from parenting to planetary healing, from teenage angst to ascension, and it might just reframe the way you think about energy hygiene forever. 

As Kris puts it, “Everyone’s gifts are awakening globally. Our job now is to teach the young ones how to use them.” 

Episode Highlights
  • What happens when kids come in already tuned into higher frequencies
  • How lower vibrational environments affect emotional health
  • Why gratitude is the fastest “vibe shifter” there is
  • The truth about mindset and the energy behind the words “I am…”
  • How Kris is building an international academy to train future healers (with multilingual video translations!)
  • Why healing others starts with mastering your own vibration

This episode is equal parts heart, humor, and healing. Whether you’re raising an empathic teen, learning to protect your own energy, or just trying to figure out why you feel drained after being around certain people, this one’s for you. 

Trust me… after this conversation, you’ll never use the words “I am” the same way again. 

The Skeptic Metaphysicians is a spiritual awakening podcast for open-minded thinkers who refuse to check their critical thinking at the door. Each episode explores consciousness expansion, enlightenment, soul purpose, and soul growth through honest, grounded conversation with leading voices in metaphysics, psychic phenomenon, quantum healing, and beyond.

We dive deep into spiritual awakening, ascension, alignment, and the awakening process without the dogma. From mediumship and spirit guides to Arcturian contact, astrology, and the subconscious mind, we explore it all with curiosity, humor, and zero guru worship.

Whether you're in the middle of your own awakening, questioning reality, or just spiritually curious, this is the podcast for seekers and skeptics...

Ever find yourself curious about the big, mysterious questions of existence but wary of overly simplistic answers or New Age jargon? That’s exactly the space where The Skeptic Metaphysicians lives. Hosts Will and Karen approach topics like spiritual awakening, expanded consciousness, and metaphysical mysteries with a blend of genuine curiosity and grounded pragmatism. They understand that the path to enlightenment is often messy and personal, so they bring both humor and humanity to these profound discussions. This podcast emerged from their own real experiences with existential questioning, making their conversations feel relatable rather than abstract. Each episode feels like a thoughtful, often funny, conversation with friends who aren’t afraid to explore the unknown while keeping one foot firmly on the ground. You’ll hear them delve into ascension, metaphysical concepts, and practical spirituality, always aiming to provide reassurance rather than rigid dogma. For anyone who’s felt both a pull toward spiritual growth and a healthy dose of skepticism, this show offers a welcoming and intelligent companion for the journey. Tune in to The Skeptic Metaphysicians for a guide that honors the mystery while valuing a sensible, down-to-earth perspective.
