Top 10 ‘Most’ Frequently Asked Questions…
Hello Delightful Souls!
Here is a list of the TOP 10 FAQ’s…
So, here we go… I’ve answered the questions to the best of my current ability…
10. What channel is the show on?
The show is on my YouTube Channel www.youtube.com/user/TheSelinaRayShow as well as here at http://www.theselinarayshow.com and several other places on the internet. It can be watched world-wide 24/7.
9. Can I see the show in my country?
YES! Of course. If you have internet access you can watch the show anywhere/anytime. So please… enjoy!
8. What is a web series?
As per Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_series
A web series is a series of episodes released on the Internet or also by mobile or cellular phone, and part of the newly emerging medium called web television. A single instance of a web series program is called an episode or webisode.
7. Do you need assistance with filming?
Always! Are you offering your services? Send me an email and let me know what skills you have! selina@theselinarayshow.com
6. How do you find your guests?
Today, finding my guests has become much easier. We find each other, through networking and sometimes I ‘cold call’ or contact prospective guests via email. I share about what the show is about and ask if they’d like to be on it. Sometimes, I surprise myself.
Let me know if YOU are interested… Always looking for entertaining and knowledgable guests!
5. How can “I” be on the show?
Easy! Just shoot me an email at selina@theselinarayshow.com or call me at 626.755.6779
4. Are you going to do ‘virtual’ shows?
You mean like through ‘Skype’? or on ‘Live Stream’? I hope so… I’m looking into what equipment I’ll need and when I can get the technical part down (no problem), there will be an announcement. Looking forward to having conversations with people all over the world! The idea really gets me excited!
3. What has been your favorite topic to date?
This is the most difficult to answer, because every topic and guest has been hand-picked by me. I am passionate and excited to present them all! The Astrology show with Divine Harmony stands out… I’ve always had a deep fascination with Astrology and the Shadow. Divine’s expertise really inspires me. Hopefully, we will see her this season too!
I’m giving a shout out to all my guests!
Lorinda Rainwater, Reinaldo Robinson, Alicia Gargaro-Magaña, Dr. Ray Doktor, Joanne Cohen, Indira Parsons, Divine Harmony, Joyce Schwarz, Dot Todman, Jsu Garcia, Corey Jenkins… THANK YOU!
2. Why don’t you film on a set?
The show was set up to be mobile, ‘on the fly’ ‘gorilla style’… One shot with minimal editing. With the challenges that I have encountered over the past year with sound, camera issues, filming locations (which I don’t see until I get to the shoot) and lighting… I’d love to evolve to a more stability in filming and editing. Will shall see. I’d like to have it remain organic, so who knows…
The #1 Most Frequently Asked Question is….
How do you make money doing your show?
The answer is… I Don’t. Not yet anyway… The show has been a passion of mine over the past year, an offshoot of my “Wayshower” Blog, coaching practice and a natural (albeit challenging) evolution of my personal growth.
As the show has evolved and requests come in with the desire for a more polished look, I am seeing how important it is to find a way to monetize the production… to pay for itself. My camera is on loan from the father of my beautiful son – he creates shows for television. I’m editing on my small Macbook and have taught myself the technical aspects.
Last week I added a PayPal Donation button on my websites and on my posts… For those compelled to donate towards the show’s production. I’m looking to offer advertising packages soon to also assist in the funding for the show. If you have any ideas that you’d like to share, I’d love to hear them!
Thank You For Your LOVE Donation…
Thank you all for your interest and support… I enjoy and appreciate the feedback, comments and questions! As I’m writing this post, I’ve begun the edit of an incredible show for May and can’t wait to ‘tease’ it – hopefully by the middle of next week!
Blessings to you all!

‘After the Show’ Season 2 Ep. 2: ‘Finding Your Voice’ with Dot Todman
The topic of ‘Finding Your Voice’ holds a huge significance for me… this is perhaps the reason for pursuing the likes of Dot Todman. Dot is truly an Empowering and Inspirational Coach, as I discovered in having her on the show.
Dot's Chakras
For me personally, I had an epiphany regarding my own voice – un-empowered. It wasn’t until my early 30′s that I even had an inkling that I hadn’t been speaking my truth. Hiding behind the family that I was born into… filled with fabulous singers and strong personalities – effective communicators, I denied myself of expression. Choosing, instead to declare that I was meant to live ‘behind the scenes’… Afraid of my own voice.
Well, obviously – I was able to move through this with years of inner work and guidance from many Spiritual Teachers. Knowing that I was not unique in the challenge of discovering my VOICE – it was my intention to share what’s possible when we are Vocally Empowered and how this empowerment transforms lives on so many levels.
Dot’s C.O.R.E. Vocal Power Technique, as she shared with us, is just that tool to provide self-discovery in empowered expression. Thank you Dot! It was a great honor to sit down with you and have you share your work (love) and talent with us.
As promised here are Dot’s Links and Information about her upcoming Workshop in March!

‘Selina Ray Show’ – Season 2 Episode 2: ‘Finding Your Voice’ with Dot Todman – Celebrity Vocal Empowerment Coach
TONIGHT! Watch ‘The Selina Ray Show’… “Finding Your Voice” with Dot Todman
PREMIERING TONIGHT! Tuesday, February 7th @ 7PM (PT)
What’s next for the show’s 2nd Episode?
When deciding on my guest for February, I reached way back to a time when I consciously embarked on my Spiritual Journey. One of my “Teachers” at the time, spoke of the importance of ‘finding your voice’. I didn’t quite understand what that meant or how to actually do it and it took me some time to realize that our ‘voice’ is our individual soul expression. For me, it would have been wonderful to have discovered someone who really understood the Mind – Soul – Voice Connection.
I recently found this “someone” through a Facebook friend who ‘sang’ her praises!

Enjoy this wonderful Poem on ‘Finding Your Voice’ by Mary Oliver
The Journey by Mary Oliver
One day you finally knew
what you had to do, and began,
though the voices around you
kept shouting
their bad advice –
though the whole house
began to tremble
and you felt the old tug
at your ankles.
“Mend my life!”
each voice cried.
But you didn’t stop.
You knew what you had to do,
though the wind pried
with its stiff fingers
at the very foundations,
though their melancholy
was terrible.
It was already late
enough, and a wild night,
and the road full of fallen
branches and stones.
But little by little,
as you left their voices behind,
the stars began to burn
through the sheets of clouds,
and there was a new voice
which you slowly
recognized as your own,
that kept you company
as you strode deeper and deeper
into the world,
determined to do
the only thing you could do –
determined to save
the only life you could save.
Namasteॐ Love
