From Doubts to Bestsellers: Two Spiritual Authors Share Their Publishing Journey

What happens when two spiritual practitioners overcome their fears and self-doubt to publish channeled books? In this honest conversation, Christine Bush (author of "Understanding Your Soul: The Channeled Wisdom of Jesus") and Joanna Alexopoulos (author of "Awaken To Your Truth: The Time Is Now") share their raw, real journeys from manuscript to published bestseller.

Both authors started with the same doubts: "Who am I to write a book?" "Will people think I'm crazy?" "I'm not tech-savvy enough." Yet both pushed through to create award-winning books that are transforming lives worldwide.

You'll discover the behind-the-scenes reality of spiritual book publishing - the unexpected paths, the costly mistakes, and the breakthrough moments that changed everything. Whether you're considering writing your first book or struggling with imposter syndrome, this conversation offers practical wisdom and genuine encouragement.

Key Topics:

✨ Overcoming Self-Doubt & Fear

✨ The Publishing Reality Check

✨ The Business Impact

✨ Practical Publishing Advice

✨ Wisdom for Aspiring Authors


This episode proves that you don't need to be a tech expert, marketing guru, or fearless entrepreneur to share your spiritual message with the world. Sometimes you just need to trust the process and take the first step.

About the Podcast

The Orykl Podcast
Real conversations about spiritual awakening, building a practice that serves others, and leading with authenticity in the conscious community.

Three Core Areas
Spiritual Stories:
Personal accounts of transformation and awakening. Guests share genuine experiences - near-death encounters, unexpected spiritual openings, channeling, healing journeys, and how life's challenges often reveal our deepest gifts. These aren't polished testimonials; they're honest stories from people who've walked through profound change.

Spiritual Entrepreneurship:
Practical guidance for building spiritual practices or businesses. Learn from practitioners who've figured out how to serve authentically while creating sustainable income. We cover marketing without manipulation, finding your people, pricing your work, and balancing spiritual calling with real-world needs.

Spiritual Leadership:
For those ready to step into leadership roles within the spiritual community. We explore what it means to guide others responsibly, create platforms that truly support practitioners, and build something meaningful that lasts. Leading from service, not ego.

Why This Podcast Exists:
The spiritual world is full of surface-level content and empty promises. We're interested in the real stuff - what actually works, what doesn't, and why. Our guests aren't perfect; they're human beings who've done the work and have something valuable to share.

If you're seeking genuine spiritual wisdom, building a practice to help others, or called to create positive change in this space, these conversations will give you both inspiration and practical tools.

Who We Serve:
Seekers exploring their spiritual path and looking for authentic guidance
Practitioners building businesses around their gifts and healing abilities
Leaders ready to create meaningful impact in the conscious community

We're part of Orykl, a platform connecting people with verified spiritual practitioners. This podcast reflects our commitment to supporting genuine spiritual growth and sustainable practice development.

Huenu Solsona

Huenu Solsona is the heart behind The Orykl Podcast and the visionary founder of Orykl. Born in Argentina and now rooted in South Africa, Huenu’s journey has been anything but ordinary—former ski champion, helicopter pilot, entrepreneur, and world traveler. But it was the sudden loss of her brother that propelled her into a deeper spiritual path—one that led her to discover her intuitive gifts and a calling to support others on their own journeys.

In 2020, during meditation, the idea for Orykl came through a divine download that became a global platform for authentic, vetted spiritual practitioners to connect with seekers around the world.

Now, through this podcast, Huenu brings her grounded wisdom, intuitive insight, and unwavering belief in human potential to the mic—sharing real conversations, stories, and tools to support your spiritual evolution.
