The Frequency of Empowerment: Rising Into Alignment with Kelly Keefe
In this deeply soulful edition of the Women on the Rise segment of the BFF Empowerment Podcast, host Blaque Diamond welcomes Kelly Keefe—a transformational coach, author, speaker, and Reiki master—who radiates wisdom, energy, and purpose. Together, they explore what it truly means to live in alignment with your divine mission, rise above fear, and embrace your authentic frequency.
A Journey Chosen by the Divine
Kelly’s path didn’t begin with a five-year plan—it began with a spiritual awakening. After a powerful meditation experience in 2012, she heard a calling: “Look up healing modalities. You are a healer.” That moment sparked a life-altering chain of events, including a chance encounter with a Reiki master in a New Jersey bookstore. From that serendipitous meeting, Kelly embarked on a journey into energy work, spiritual leadership, and coaching—eventually founding The Heart Space and later expanding into what she now calls the Frequency Field.
“Sometimes we don’t choose the path,” she says. “It chooses us.”
Overcoming Fear by Befriending It
A major theme of the conversation was fear—not as an enemy to destroy, but as a teacher to understand. Kelly emphasizes the importance of looking at fear as a member of your inner team, not the CEO of your life. Fear, she says, often shows up when we are on the brink of growth, when we’re stepping into the unknown, or when we’re being called to shed a version of ourselves that no longer fits.
Blaque Diamond shares her own empowering acronym for fear:
F.E.A.R. – Faith Encompasses Awesome Rewards.
Together, they remind us that fear isn’t something to suppress, but a cue to lean in, listen, and evolve.
The Power of Divine Timing
Both women reflect on how divine timing has shaped their lives—from Kelly’s upcoming novel SHE (years in the making and launching globally August 28), to Blaque Diamond’s award-winning memoir Stolen Innocence: a Survivor’s Journey to Freedom, which she finally completed and released after years of hesitation. Since publishing it, doors have opened for new speaking engagements, pageant opportunities, and renewed recognition for her entire literary catalog.
“Delays aren’t denials,” Blaque Diamond shares. “They’re just preparation for what’s truly aligned.”
Writing as Healing and Spiritual Channeling
Both authors agree—writing is more than just storytelling. It’s spiritual work. Kelly describes her experience as “not writing the book, but letting the book write me.” For Blaque Diamond, who has written 14 books (and counting), the writing process has always been about flow, not structure.
Their mutual belief: writing is not about perfection—it's about surrender.
Spirituality, Frequency & Reiki Healing
Kelly also shares insights into her work as a Reiki Master, breaking down what a session looks like and how healing takes place through energy alignment and chakra balancing. The conversation expands into spiritual practices like meditation, frequency work, and the science-backed power of vibration.
“We are all radio signals,” she explains. “The frequency you’re tuned into will shape the reality you experience.”
From Trauma to Triumph
Blaque Diamond’s own journey from surviving child abuse and blindness at 15 to becoming a multi-award-winning author, speaker, and coach is the very embodiment of rising from adversity. As she prepares to release her next children's book, Braille’s Superpower, and continues to build the No Limits Girl Empowerment App, her mission remains clear: to help others see what's possible, no matter the circumstance.
Final Reflections: You Already Have It
Kelly reminds us that the mission isn’t to become something new—it’s to remember who we’ve always been.
“You are already powerful. You are already aligned. It’s just about retuning yourself to that frequency.”
Whether you're just beginning your healing journey or already walking in your power, this conversation is a beautiful reminder that empowerment is not a destination—it’s a frequency you can choose to tune into every day.
