    Embracing Deep Winter and Working with the Seasons: A Talk with Natalie Rousseau

    Welcome back, friends!! In our second guest interview on the podcast, I am so happy to introduce Natalie Rousseau and talk about seasonal awareness, deep reflection amidst Deep Winter, and how to navigate transitional periods within a new year. Please find a bit more about Natalie via her bio below; and follow her on Instagram here, as well as on her website. I hope this episode - and Natalie's wisdom within - serve youwell as the month of February continues to unfold. Thank you for listening! Until next time, Be well Natalie's Bio: I am a Somatic Inquiry practitioner and mindfulness teacher, guiding others in deepening their relationship with themselves, their bodies, and the living world. My work is rooted in an animist framework, honouring the wisdom of the natural world, the cosmos, and our other-than-human kin—plants, ancestors, and the unseen forces that shape our lives. I come to this work through a 25-year journey as a yoga and meditation teacher, continually drawn to the ways we can cultivate presence, resilience, and connection. I identify as an endless student, constantly exploring new depths of understanding—both within and beyond myself. Off the mat and outside the healing space, I am a mother, an animal lover, and someone who finds solace in the quiet rhythms of the earth. My work is an offering of devotion—to the body, to relationality, and to the ever-unfolding mystery of being alive. Interested in using Riverside for your podcasting needs?

    On Steading Our Pace and Finding Wisdom Within: A Talk With Cindy Stockdale

    Welcome back, friends!! In our first guest interview session, I am bringing back my dear friend, teacher, medicine woman, and all-around badass, Cindy Stockdale - to talk about slowing down long enough to begin the process of observing what comes up. Please find a bit more about Cindy via her bio below; and follow her on Instagram here, as well as on her website. I hope this episode - and Cindy's wisdom within - serve you well as the month of January ends. Thank you for listening! Until next time, Be well Cindy's Bio: Hi, my name is Cindy. My deepest passion is to support you to reclaim your personal power and help you live a fulfilled and satisfied life. I am a certified Quantum Life Coach with degrees in Psychology and Archaeology. I have been teaching yoga, studying Mountain Shamanism and the energetic healing arts for over 20 years, and have been an intuitive and channel my entire life. I grew up in a family that suffered from addiction and mental illness and as a young adult knew that I did not want to continue to weave this trauma into my life story. This spurred me into the life long journey of self-inquiry. Through many modalities including: Quantum Life Coaching, Yoga, Shamanism, and the Expressive Arts, I began to disentangle myself from my conditioning. Using these powerful tools, I have been able to live from my higher self and step into my place of service and highest purpose. My highest purpose is to help people remember they are loved. This is a true homecoming. Homecoming means we get to identify what we believe to be true, not what society has told us we need to be. We learn how to identify and discern our own feelings, beliefs, sensations, and then have the courage to live them outloud in the world. I am here for the wild one, the edge walker, the curse breaker, the life claimer. I am here for those who are ready to transform their lives. I’m talking about real change, to finally turn the page on your story and to say yes to the life that is waiting for you. It is time to answer your call.
