Whether you’re looking for soul-aligned health tips or yearning for inspiring stories from women who have risen above life’s challenges, this show is for you. I see you, Sister. You’ve walked through the fire of loss, burnout, awakening, or deep transformation, and you’re no longer who you were. You’ve done the inner work, made the shifts, and remembered your truth.

Through many rebirths after my Dark Night of the Soul, I emerged with a deep reverence for the body, the revelation of my spiritual gifts, and an unshakable belief in the power of divine feminine embodiment in leadership, motherhood, and business. And now, I’m sharing all I’ve learned along the way with you. This show isn’t just about periods or goddess work, though you’ll learn about both. It’s about shedding the world’s expectations so you remember who the fuck you are… and fall in love with the woman rising through it all.  Each new episode is intentionally released on the New, Full, and Quarter Moons, to anchor our cyclical nature in everyday life.

Welcome to The Phoenix Perspective Podcast, for women who’ve walked through the fire and are ready to rise into their Vibrant Lives.

  1. Where Our Energy Really Comes From: The Phoenix Unscripted

    Where Our Energy Really Comes From: The Phoenix Unscripted

    In this Phoenix Unscripted reflection, I sit beside the fire and explore a question that’s been on my mind lately: where does our energy actually come from? We often hear spiritual teachings that say energy is infinite and doesn’t come from the physical world. But as someone who works closely with the body, I’ve been reflecting on the truth that our energy is more complex than that. We are both earth and spirit. Our bodies generate energy from the food we eat, the air we breathe, and the sunlight stored in the plants that nourish us. But we also have another kind of energy — the spark that comes from creativity, purpose, excitement, and connection to something larger than ourselves. In this reflection, I share a recent experience that reminded me how powerful that energetic spark can be… and why a truly vibrant life requires caring for both sources of energy. This isn’t a teaching episode. It’s simply a reflection on what it means to feel alive. In this conversation beside the fire, we explore: • Why energy is such an essential part of living a vibrant life • The difference between the body’s physical energy and our energetic spark • Why denying the body cuts us off from an important source of vitality • How creativity, joy, and connection can awaken another kind of energy • Why both the physical and energetic sides of ourselves deserve care If you’ve ever noticed that certain experiences leave you feeling completely alive — even when you’re tired — this reflection might resonate. So take a breath, settle in, and join me beside the fire. If you enjoyed this episode, you'll love what's happening inside the Red Tent Society. This is a space where women gather to rest, reconnect, and rise as Cyclical Beings. Check out the Red Tent Society HERE. Season 2: Rising in Real Life starts on the New Moon on May 16!  This season, we’ll explore how women live, work, and lead once they stop abandoning their bodies and start waking up to their feminine power.

  2. Remembering the Wild Feminine: The Phoenix Unscripted

    Remembering the Wild Feminine: The Phoenix Unscripted

    In this Phoenix Unscripted reflection, I sit beside the fire and follow a thread that has been quietly weaving through my life for decades. It starts with my motorcycle named Lilith… and leads me into childhood memories of watching bats at dusk, filling notebooks with observations, and falling in love with creatures the world taught us to fear. As I explore the mythology of Lilith and the dark feminine, I begin to notice something fascinating: the symbols, stories, and fascinations that shaped me as a child may have been breadcrumbs all along—little clues pointing me back toward who I truly am. This episode isn’t a lesson or a teaching. It’s an invitation to pause and reflect. Because sometimes the things that captured our imagination when we were young weren’t random at all. They were reminders. In this reflection, we explore: • How childhood fascinations can hold clues about our deeper nature • Why the “dark feminine” is often misunderstood and pushed into shadow • The idea that our lives leave breadcrumbs guiding us back to ourselves • The cycles of awakening and integration on a spiritual path • A gentle question to help you reflect on the symbols and stories that shaped you If you’ve ever felt drawn to certain stories, animals, myths, or archetypes without fully understanding why… this conversation might help you see those threads in a new way. So settle in, take a breath, and join me beside the fire. If you enjoyed this episode, you'll love what's happening inside the Red Tent Society.

    Healing the Masculine Abandonment Wound: The Phoenix Unscripted

    In this Phoenix Unscripted episode, I’m sitting beside the fire with you—unpolished, unplanned, and deeply honest. What began as a quiet early-morning meditation turned into an unexpected conversation with my 12-year-old self and a layer of wounding I didn’t realize was still asking to be seen. This reflection explores the moment many girls experience but rarely name: when the body changes, affection shifts, and something in the masculine—fathers, God, authority, safety—feels like it disappears. I share how puberty, religion, and the sexualization of women’s bodies shaped an abandonment wound that echoed through my relationships, my spirituality, and my sense of self. We talk about healing as a spiral, not a straight line. About reclaiming the body as sacred. About integrating—not rejecting—the divine masculine. And about the quiet power of inner child work, cyclical living, and compassionate self-witnessing. This isn’t a teaching episode. It’s a remembering. If you’ve ever felt abandoned by men, disconnected from the divine, or unsure where your belonging went—come sit by the fire with me. You are not alone. If you enjoyed this episode, you'll love what's happening inside the Red Tent Society. This is a space where women gather to rest, reconnect, and rise as Cyclical Beings.

  4. What My Menstrual Cycle Has Been Teaching Me: The Phoenix Unscripted

    1 APR

    What My Menstrual Cycle Has Been Teaching Me: The Phoenix Unscripted

    In this Phoenix Unscripted episode, Kori Rae Kovacs shares a personal reflection on cycle mindfulness, intentional living, and why honoring your menstrual cycle starts with awareness—not perfection. What if the real beginning of hormone healing isn’t doing everything “right,” but simply paying attention? In this episode, Kori explores the difference between cycle syncing and what she calls cycle mindfulness: bringing your cycle back to the forefront of your awareness each day and learning to respond to your body with presence, boundaries, and self-trust. She shares how protecting her bleed phase became the doorway into deeper healing, how “Baby Bunny Day” revealed a repeating pattern of tenderness in her cycle, and why intentional support on sensitive days can change everything. Inside this reflection: Why cycle mindfulness can be more powerful than trying to do cycle syncing perfectly How protecting your menstrual phase helps prevent burnout The importance of boundaries around your bleed What “Baby Bunny Day” is and how tracking patterns creates self-trust How intention brings your presence back into your daily life Why paying attention to your cycle is a form of healthcare This is not a rigid how-to episode. It’s a gentle reminder that your cycle is always speaking—and when you listen, you begin to care for yourself differently. If you’ve been feeling burned out, disconnected from your body, or unsure where to begin with cyclical living, this conversation offers a softer starting point. If you enjoyed this episode, you'll love what's happening inside the Red Tent Society. This is a space where women gather to rest, reconnect, and rise as Cyclical Beings.

    Witnessing the Beauty of Being Human: The Phoenix Unscripted

    In this Phoenix Unscripted transmission, Kori Rae Kovacs reflects on purpose, presence, and what it truly means to be human. Recorded during a quiet November sunrise, this deeply personal episode explores a simple but powerful question: What if our purpose isn’t to hustle harder or achieve more… but to witness the miracle of being alive? From the stillness of what she calls the “womb portal” — a reflective, inward season before her menstrual cycle begins — Kori shares an unfiltered reflection on slowing down, reconnecting to awe, and remembering why we’re here. Inside this episode: The spiritual meaning of presenceFinding purpose beyond productivitySlowing down in a hustle-driven cultureThe connection between nature, nervous system regulation, and peaceGaia, gratitude, and humanity’s role as witnesses of beautyBeing vs. doing This is not a teaching episode. It’s a reflection. A transmission. A moment beside the fire. If you’ve been questioning your purpose, feeling disconnected, or overwhelmed by modern life, this conversation invites you back to something simpler: presence, appreciation, and the quiet magic of being human. Listen while walking, journaling, or watching a sunrise. And if this resonates, share it with someone who needs permission to slow down and remember why they’re here.

    Ep15: When Life Doesn’t Go as Planned — Reclaiming Joy After Infertility (with Lindsey Hastings)

    What happens when life doesn’t go the way you planned? In this episode of The Phoenix Perspective Podcast, Kori Rae Kovacs talks with her longtime friend Lindsey Hastings about infertility grief, the emotional aftermath of ending fertility treatments, and how to rebuild self-trust when a deeply held dream changes. Lindsey shares what it was like to live with the pressure of “one outcome,” how the language of success vs. failure in fertility care impacted her mental health, and the moment the grief became real—when the fertility medications left the fridge and the nursery plan had to change. Together, Kori and Lindsey explore the connection between body shame, perfectionism (hello, eldest daughter energy), and how women learn to blame their bodies—especially after pregnancy loss or years of trying. This conversation is for the woman who feels exhausted, disappointed, or alone in her fertility story—and wants a more compassionate way forward. Lindsey also shares the practice that helped her reconnect with herself: reclaiming joy through movement, dance, and daily choices rooted in love. In this episode, you’ll learn:• How to cope emotionally when fertility treatments don’t lead to a baby • How to move through infertility grief and the “life you thought you’d have” • Why your body isn’t broken—and how to change the inner dialogue • The hidden toll of perfectionism and chronic “mom mode” on women’s health • How joy, movement, and creativity can support healing after infertility If this episode resonates, share it with a friend who’s navigating infertility, fertility grief, or pregnancy loss—and leave a review to help more women find this conversation.

    Ep14: Why Your Inner Critic Gets Loud Before Your Period (And What She’s Really Trying to Do)

    Have you ever noticed that a few days before your period, your self-talk turns sharp? You question your work. Your body. Your relationships. Your worth. In this solo episode, I share a vulnerable look into my own luteal phase — including recent cycle changes at 41, the possibility of early perimenopause, and a day when my inner critic was especially loud. But here’s the reframe: What if your inner critic isn’t here to destroy you? What if she’s actually trying to protect you? We explore the energetics of the luteal phase (your inner autumn), why self-criticism tends to peak before your period, and how boundary work — not silencing — may be the medicine. I also walk you through the two-pen journaling practice I use to have real conversations with my inner critic instead of letting her run my life. This isn’t about becoming perfectly positive. It’s about building self-trust, strengthening your inner boundaries, and creating a relationship with every part of yourself — even the sharp ones. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why the inner critic gets louder in the luteal phaseHow cycle tracking helps you understand emotional shiftsThe difference between destructive self-talk and protective awarenessA practical journaling technique to contain and work with your criticHow self-acceptance — not suppression — creates real magic Your inner critic may have wisdom. She just needs a container.
