The Rivvly Podcast

Slava.Art Mission:

Slava.Art champions democracy and social justice by showcasing the richness of Ukraine's art and culture. We amplify creative voices, connecting the global audience to Ukraine's artistic spirit. 

Through art, we nurture appreciation, cultivate independence, and aspire to a united vision of cultural pride and empowerment.

Sasha Fishilevich is a co‑founder of Slava.Art. Though born in the U.S., Sasha’s earliest memories—first words in Russian and Ukrainian traditions—rooted her in the culture of Ukraine. Guided by a commitment to democracy, human rights, and the well‑being of Ukrainians, Sasha and her mother launched Slava.Art in 2023. Her mission is to empower artists from war‑torn regions, amplify authentic Ukrainian voices through art, and foster global solidarity.

Lisa Mostovoy is a Ukrainian-American and co-founder of Slava.Art, a nonprofit dedicated to uplifting Ukrainian artists and preserving cultural identity through creative expression and international collaboration. Her work bridges art and activism, amplifying voices from war-affected regions and connecting them to global audiences. With a background in social impact and strategic partnerships, Lisa brings a thoughtful, mission-driven approach to building global community through the arts.

Meditation and other self-care practices are important to the Rivvly Team. Working remotely is such a gift and also comes with its own challenges.

We meditated together, as a team, for the first time last month and the results were magical.

This meditation is gentle and for anyone, at any level!

We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
