Curious With Sonia is a long-form exploration of the human experience.
Hosted by Sonia Houria Rivas, integrative inner-work guide and cultural bridge between ancestral wisdom and modern life, the podcast brings together thinkers, healers, creators, athletes, and everyday people with extraordinary stories to explore how humans grow, adapt, connect, and heal.
Each episode dives into the deeper layers of mind, body, emotion, culture, and nature - the places where meaning, resilience, and identity are shaped.
We explore themes such as:
• emotional resilience and nervous-system intelligence
• breathwork, embodiment, and movement practices
• cultural identity, belonging, and ancestral wisdom
• nature connection and its impact on wellbeing
• spirituality, creativity, fear, and purpose
• relationships, community, and collective healing
The mission:
To help listeners understand themselves more deeply and navigate life with groundedness, clarity, and compassion.
This podcast invites you to remember your true nature; to reconnect with your inner intelligence, honour cultural and ecological wisdom, and rediscover the courage already alive within you.
No quick fixes.
Just honest, spacious conversations that honour complexity and inspire transformation.
If you’re seeking meaningful dialogue that reflects the depth of being human, Curious With Sonia is your place to slow down, listen, and explore what truly shapes us.

What does it really mean to be human, and how do we live a life that feels like ours?
In this opening episode of Curious With Sonia, host Sonia Houria Rivas shares why this podcast exists and the questions at its heart.
Born from years of working with thoughtful, capable people who still feel disconnected, overwhelmed, or stuck, this podcast explores the inner and outer tools we often forget we have as humans.
Through long-form conversations, Curious With Sonia examines the human experience through inner intelligence, nature intelligence, and relational intelligence, supporting deeper clarity, resilience, belonging, and connection.
This is not a podcast of quick fixes, but an invitation to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with yourself and the world around you.
