What if the key to more joy, connection, and beauty in your life isn't doing more—but doing it differently?

In this week’s episode of Find Your Feminine Fire, I’m joined by award-winning author, poet, and spiritual teacher Judith Valente for a conversation that feels like a deep exhale. We explore what it means to live with intention, reverence, and presence in a culture that glorifies speed and productivity.

Judith’s newest book, The Italian Soul, is a love letter to the Italian way of being—and a gentle invitation to slow down and savor your life.

✨ What Italians can teach us about beauty, rhythm, and slowing down ✨ How to resist the pressure of overachieving and reclaim rest ✨ The healing power of shared meals, sacred pauses, and daily rituals ✨ Why joy and reverence are not luxuries—but necessities ✨ Small shifts to bring more sacredness into your everyday life

🎧 Listen now and feel yourself soften, reconnect, and remember what really matters.
