Listen Later

What if grief could become the gateway to your greatest strength? In this deeply human episode of INHABIT with Alessia Citro, Alessia sits down with Nicole Sciacca—a yoga and mobility teacher to A-list celebrities and founder of Sweat and Stillness—to explore how movement, meditation, and meaning can turn heartbreak into healing. Nicole opens up about losing both her partner and ex-husband within a single year and shares how she transmuted profound grief into grounded purpose through mindful movement, spiritual connection, and community support.

From the mysterious rash that symbolized her continued soul connection with her late partner to the creation of Sweat and Stillness, Nicole blends grief recovery, somatic healing, and spiritual growth with practical guidance for listeners. She demystifies mobility training, functional range conditioning, and bioidentical hormone therapy, offering tools to move better, feel ageless, and reconnect with your body at any age.

Whether you’re a high-achieving woman navigating transition or simply craving peace in a chaotic world, this episode reminds you that healing isn’t about moving on—it’s about moving through. Tune in to rediscover your resilience, reclaim your strength, and inhabit your life fully.
