The Space Between with Alyson Rixner

In this first episode of Season 3, Alyson shares the story that changed the direction of The Space Between.

Following an unexpected experience inside Notre Dame during a trip to Paris, she began exploring the symbolism of the fleur-de-lis, the return of the feminine, and what it means to reclaim our power in uncertain times.

As institutions crumble and the collective feels increasingly dysregulated, this conversation invites listeners to consider a different path forward—one rooted in self-trust, embodiment, and coming home to ourselves.

Season 3 of The Space Between will explore power, relationships, spirituality, systems, and the role we each play in creating what comes next.

• The Paris experience that shaped Season 3
• The symbolism of the fleur-de-lis and the feminine
• How chaos disconnects us from ourselves
• Why the body is central to taking our power back
• The intention behind Season 3 of The Space Between

• Power is not something we acquire externally.
• The body offers wisdom when the world feels uncertain.
• We cannot live entirely inside the collapse of old systems.
• Regulation helps us find our footing during change.
• Coming home to ourselves is the invitation of this season.

"What happens when we're outside of ourselves? We lose our power."

"The goal of this season of The Space Between is to help everyone find that center, find that power, and find that footing."

"The way to move beyond the mind is through the body."
