#31 Lean into the Astrology

How can constellations in the night sky help you to move through life with more ease? In this episode I share how I have used astrology to move through challenges, my life in general and this world with more ease and understanding for myself and others. I share my view on why astrology is important, how to cultivate a healthy relationship to it and explain how it is so much more than your sun/star sign. If you are curious with astrology this really is the episode for you!

Love in abundance,

#30 Mastering the Void

The place between the new and the old, the unknown, the space of creation, there are many names to the same void but it remains the most important space to get familiar with, accept and cherish, through your journey here on earth if you want something else for yourself than what you are currently experiencing. In today’s episode I speak on the challenges and resistance of staying here, why it’s so important and how we can practically practice getting acquainted with this space and how it can guide us. Warm welcome to the magical space of creation!

#29 Changing thoughts, emotions and beliefs

In the midst of a changing world we need to focus on our inner transformations and the changes in our own lives. As you change, so does this world, but it is usually difficult to just change our old ways of thinking, feeling and behaving. In this episode I explain in a simple way why changing is so challenging, what is actually holding you back from living a life that is not defined by your past and what you can practically do to make changes, both internally and externally, easier for you. Welcome to a new way of living!

#28 Celibacy

The keywords for 2025 for me are ruthlessness, authenticity and love, so what better way to start this year than to talk about celibacy. What is actually the role of celibacy on a heart-centred path? In this episode I share my personal experiences and talk about the benefits of the highly misunderstood act of celibacy. Wether you are single and want to attract a safe & high value partner, or want a safer and more loving relationship to your current partner, this episode opens up a new perspective on sexual relations and how we can use this potent energy to our advantage on our journeys.

#26 Identity and Ideologies on a Heart Centered path

How can our identities and ideologies help us, or hold us back, on our self-development journey? Having awareness around how your identity and ideologies play into your suffering and capacity for change can be extremely helpful in big transformations and transitions in life. In the light of current social and astrological events I decided to dedicate a full episode to how this affects our ego and journey, and how we can use this to make our lives easier and more enjoyable, instead of being the victim of our past beliefs. Open your heart and come join me for an episode that will get your mind spinning!

Sending you love in abundance,

#22 Pleasure

I’m going to issue a trigger warning regarding this episode since there are mentions of sexual trauma. This is the second episode on feminine energy and how to increase and embrace the feeling of pleasure, enjoyment and playfulness. A controversial topic with a lot of misconceptions and stigma, so of course I had to make an entire episode about it. What is healthy pleasure? How do we create more of it in our everyday life? I cover it all in this juicy episode, warm welcome!

#21 The Essence of Feminine Energy

Today I’m diving into one of the most requested topics for the podcast, feminine energy, why it is just as important for men as for women, and how we can transform a wounded feminine energy to an empowered and healthy feminine energy. The feminine energy is probably the most needed in this world, not only in individuals, but collectively. So, by embodying more of the healthy feminine within yourself and celebrate it in others, the brighter the future will be for this planet.

#19 Worry & Anxiety 10 min meditation

Right now I see a lot people experiencing big changes and fast-forward motion in their lives and with that it is common for feelings of worry and anxiety to arise. Or maybe your mind easily slips into worry and anxiety on an every-day basis, just like mine did before. Either way, I wanted to provide you with a guided mediation instead of talking about these strong feelings and emotions from a theoretical perspective today. So find yourself a comfortable seated position and join me for a 10 minute meditation to ease worry and anxiety. The meditation starts at 03.50 and finishes at 14.10.

Love in abundance,
Johanna Rizzo

#18 Controversial topic – Psychedelics

I thought it was time for me to enter the discussion on the controversial topic of psychedelics, as its healing effects are more and more brought into light. In this episode I talk about my own opinions and experiences around psychedelics as well as recent studies from both a “positive” and “negative” perspective in hopes to open up more nuanced discussions about this in the future. Also, if you have been curious about psychedelics, I share some guidance on how to relate to this type of medicine. Welcome to another episode on controversial topics from a holistic perspective!

Love in abundance,
Johanna

#14 Nervous System Regulation 101

It doesn’t matter if you are new to self-development and holistic health or if you have been on it for years, the healing and heart-centered path always comes back to one thing, nervous system regulation. It’s the main key to enable yourself to feel safe through all changes and shifts you undergo, willingly or unwillingly, in this human experience.

In this first episode on nervous system regulation I talk about the main factor for succeeding in the changes you want to make in you life, how you can make you body feel safe in easy accessible ways and how to make life more enjoyable for yourself. Count on a lot more on this subject throughout the year, I want you to succeed too!

#12 Controversial topic – A Dysfunctional System

I felt like it was about time to start to address some very important, but controversial, topics in this podcast, apart from all the self-healing work that I talk about. A big part of the heart-centered path is to start to think for ourselves, and create our own perception about the world we live in, as we navigate our unique journeys. Therefore I wanted to talk about the dysfunction of the society we are all a part of, in one way or another, as it is one of the reasons why I am so passionate about the work that I do.

As we are faced with a lot of darkness, collectively, it is easy to get caught up in the misery of this world, or to just look away, feeling like there is nothing we can do. How can we possibly heal and thrive in a world like this? Let me give you a new perspective on this, open your mind and join me in today’s episode as I show you my inner rebel.

Welcome to my most controversial episode yet, that you will want to listen to in its entirety, just make sure you breathe your way through it!

#11 How to stay Physically Healthy

In the Northern hemisphere the darkness is rolling in and so are illnesses and seasonal depression.

What is the secret to staying healthy throughout the winter, but also throughout life?

In today’s episode I give you the secret on how I have improved my health immensely these past six years and how you can start to improve yours!

Welcome to another episode of Heart Centered by Rizzo Holistic!

#10 You need to fail

Why is “failing” and falling into old patterns so important? Coming from a recovering perfectionist it’s almost outrageous to even think about “making mistakes” or “failing” and it took a while for me to realise why it plays a major part in our evolution. In today’s episode I talk about perfectionism, how life is like a meditation, the current collective energies, why we are being challenged so heavily right now and how this applies to the heart-centered path and our evolution as a society. Especially tune in today if you are going through a tough time right now and need some encuragement!

#9 Feminine & Masculine energies

As this is becoming a very hot topic, I thought I might just add my flavour to this discussion from a holistic health and healing perspective.

I’ve been postponing to record this episode for over a month, I waited for the inspiration to find me so I could explain this beautiful dynamic that is found in our inner union, but most evidently in our relationships, and last weekend it hit me. Therefore, in this episode, I explain, from a very visual perspective (as always), what feminine and masculine energies are, how they show up in our romantic relationships and my personal stories of what happened when I embodied wounded masculine and feminine energies.

The post I talk about in the beginning of the episode is found pinned on my profile https://www.instagram.com/rizzoholistic/

Please share your thoughts and questions in the comment section!

#8 The Dark Night of the Soul

Is it depression? Is it a mid-life crisis? Or is it “just” The Dark Night of the Soul? As this world is going through a collective Dark Night of the Soul and many are going through awakenings, this episode is a beacon of light in these dark times.

In today’s episode I paint you a mental picture of what the dark night of the soul is and give you some guidance on how to meet yourself and life during this process (or if you have someone close to you going through this, hopefully this episode will help you understand them better).

How many Dark Night of the Soul will we have? What happens during this process? And what is the role of your ego in all of this? Tune in to find out!

With love,
Johanna Rizzo

#7 The normalization of overstimulation

Healthy and normal are two different things, especially in today’s society.

In this episode I shine a light on one of many unhealthy standards in society today, overstimulation and how it keeps us numb, disconnected from ourselves and makes it impossible to create happiness from the inside, because we have no idea of how we actually feel and who we are without all the “doing”.

I share my personal stories of how I have used stimulation to run away from myself and the most important practise of your life.

Tune in for a somewhat controversial and rebellious episode!

#6 Healthy boundaries

Why are boundaries so important? And what do I mean when I say that boundaries are the highest form of self love?

In this episode I talk about how we set healthy boundaries, and in the contrary what unhealthy boundaries ​are and how we can avoid using them, so that we can help all the relationships in our lives to grow stronger with more love!

#5 An experiment in presence

Last week I did a little experiment and removed all stimulation (phone, books, watch etc) for 24 hours. In this episode I explain why I did this (and need to do similar things regularly), the psychology behind it, what happened and how this worked out for me.

As a holistic coach it’s important for me to continue to keep showing up for myself, every day, in all layers and processes, so that I can show up for all my clients, yogis, followers and listeners. I hope by sharing this little presence experiment, that I can inspire you to show up for yourself on new levels as well.

Happy listening!

#4 How to stop identifying with past experiences

How we relate to our past determines our future.

In this episode I talk about the different stages of how we can heal from our past experiences, allow our pasts to be our best teacher and find inner-power in processes that were once painful.

Know that these are only suggestions based on my experience and expertise, the process is, and should always be, individual and unique. Take what resonates with you and leave the rest for someone else!

#3 Triggers – The beauty you see in me is a reflection of you

Triggers are a tricky topic and it tend to tigger a lot of people only talking about it (as it should). In today’s episode I dive deeper into what triggers are, how they show up in our lives and how we can move past them to live a freer life.

I share examples of what I have encountered this past week and how to not take other people’s reactions personally, while also taking radical responsibility for your own life and growth!

Thank you for pressing play and for your continued growth to move past the uncomfortable and inviting more love into your life!

#2 Fears – How to overcome them

Fears, we all have them, big or small, they are there to keep us where we are “safe” and they have served their purpose in the human evolution. However, many of the fears that we have are inherited and doesn’t serve us anymore, rather limit our capacity of living our life to the fullest. In this episode I explain what fears I have been facing lately and how you can overcome yours. Thank you for pressing play today!

Episode 10 – How Would You Like To Get Naked For Me?

In our most RATED R episode yet we had the honor to interview nudity photographer and health coach Savannah Wishart diving into a conversation about nudity, BDSM, shibari (kinky knitting) and how to get comfortable naked. What is the difference between sexuality and sensuality? Why is nude art censored on social media? But most importantly – how can I love my body?
Do you dare to listen..?

Episode 9 – Change

This episode is all about CHANGE! Why is change so frightening at times? Why do we stay in toxic relationships and situations even though we logically know it is better to leave or change? How does Johanna make progress while sitting on the couch doing nothing? How do we even go with the flow of life? As always, so many questions!

As Alice is walking around in a hospital mindblown and Johanna is sitting by herself in total silence we’re both thinking about things that we take for granted in life, how? Tune in to find out!

Episode 7 – Forgiveness

This is a juicy epiode about how we moved on from breakups, the roller coaster of healing, how to turn anger into gratitude, revenge (since Alice is a scorp we had to throw that in there too haha), but most importantly, episode 7 talks about FORGIVENESS! How do we forgive someone who hurt us? How do you get back from that? And above that, why on earth does Johanna need a sponsorship of men´s underware?? Enjoy the ride!

Episode 6 – Keep on Grindin’ with Max Pisano

Episode 6 is here with our first guest, Mr Fearless and Limitless himself, former “Elitstyrkans Hemligheter” (SAS: Who Dares Wins) participant Max Pisano! We got the opportunity for this exclusive interview talking about Baby Max, Messiah-complex, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and what Max´s instagram would be named if he lost his toe. So dive deep into your fears and ride with us! Like Max would say: Let´s get it, Let’s go!

Episode 5 – Communicate to Listen

We’re wishing everyone a happy holiday with episode 5 and this is all about how we communicate and connect deeper to people around us! Agreeing to disagree, being thankful for waiting, talking from an “I” perspective and then sprinkled with some spiritual ego, freedom and the veil of illusion! Happy end of 2021 and to a more loving 2022!
