In this week’s episode, we attune to the Waxing Moon — the phase associated with the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle, the season of spring, and the wood element. With the start of the holiday season adding pressure, urgency, and overwhelm, this is the perfect moment to explore the art of pacing.

As a recovering workaholic and chronic do-er, Riva shares how the speed of modern life impacts women’s healing, and why slowing down is essential for nervous system regulation, trauma recovery, and intentional living. Through nature metaphors, somatic wisdom, and cyclical guidance, she invites you into a gentler rhythm that honors your energy, your timing, and your inner process.

If you’re someone who rushes your healing, pushes through your days, or feels urgency around “becoming the next version” of yourself, this episode will help you breathe deeper, soften your pace, and reconnect with the wisdom of your body.
