In this episode, I sit down with Rianne Wolswinkel—Ayurvedic Health Counselor, Yoga Therapist, and regenerative land project steward living in a van in southern Spain.

We talk about:

• Navigating chronic kidney disease through Ayurveda

• Learning to feel instead of just analyze

• Why routine, cooked food, and boundaries are non-negotiables

• Living cyclically with nature and your body

• What she's learned from anxiety, burnout, and healing

  
  

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by your health or disconnected from your body, this episode is for you.
