Written steps for this tutorial:
1. Select the background. You can select the background directly, or select the foreground and then invert your selection, as we did in this video.
2. Apply a Gaussian blur filter. Remember to turn on "preserve alpha".
3. Add a lighting filter if you so desire. I like to change the ambient light, and change the color to a light orange.
4. To add a soft light effect, duplicate your picture, and then change the blend mode to soft light.

Never understood why so many youtube photo, camera reviewers alway got so hung up on background bokeh when this looks better and can save you a lot of money for that full frame camera.

Thanks. It is a little hard to hear you with music in the background. Perhaps make it softer?

This is helpful but I do not know how to make sure the mask layer is selected so I can change the background and also change the subject independently. Do you have any tips for that?

Sorry for replying late For this case, there is no need to use masks as your blurring the background You just need to make a selection of the person/object/subject in the photo and then select the inverse by pressing Crt/Command + shift + I and then apply Gaussian blur filter to the inverse selection made
