THRIVE Podcast by Carina Greweling
Welcome to the THRIVE Podcast — the sacred space for women who are ready to stop shrinking, start listening to their bodies, and live in deep alignment with their inner wisdom.
I’m your host, Carina Greweling — Gut & Hormone Coach, modern medicine woman, and guide for women reclaiming their vitality, sensuality, and voice.
Here, we blend Modern Ayurveda, functional medicine, and Eastern psychology with real talk about hormones, digestion, burnout, sexuality, and the nervous system. But this isn’t just another wellness podcast. This is about embodiment, not perfection. It’s about rewriting the story you’ve been told about your body — especially when it comes to energy, intimacy, and pleasure.
