In this episode, Kristen sits down with Radhika, an integrative wellness mentor, yoga teacher, and meditation guide, to explore how ancient Ayurvedic wisdom and modern neuroscience can work together to help women regulate their nervous systems and come back to themselves.

Radhika shares how growing up in India immersed in yoga philosophy and seasonal living shaped her approach, and how a season of corporate burnout and life transitions led her to this work.

This conversation is a beautiful reminder that true wellbeing isn't about fixing yourself — it's about returning to your own inner wisdom.

Guest Bio: Radhika is an integrative wellness mentor, yoga teacher, and meditation guide whose work blends Ayurvedic wisdom, yoga philosophy, and neuroscience to help women restore balance and reconnect to themselves. She is the author of the forthcoming book Radiant Rituals, due out late 2026.

Key Takeaways:

Rituals differ from habits in that they carry intentionality and signal safety to the nervous system
Morning rituals set the tone for how we show up for ourselves and others throughout the day
Seasonal living is one of the simplest and most powerful ways to restore balance and circadian rhythm
Caring for the physical body — especially digestion — often unlocks deeper emotional and spiritual layers
Small, sustainable shifts ("elevation over perfection") are more powerful than overhauling everything at once
Individual wellbeing has a ripple effect on collective consciousness
