The seasons where your life no longer fits who you used to be, but you don’t fully know who you’re becoming yet either.

Hosted by Katya Sieker, these conversations explore identity shifts, nervous system healing, conscious living, motherhood, grief, beauty, burnout, and returning to yourself.

Not from the perspective of having it all figured out, but from inside the becoming itself. <br/><br/><a href="https://sunriseritual.substack.com?utm_medium=podcast">sunriseritual.substack.com</a>]]></description><link>https://sunriseritual.substack.com/podcast</link><generator>Substack</generator><lastBuildDate>Sat, 18 Jul 2026 12:10:59 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link href="https://api.substack.com/feed/podcast/9081789.rss" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/><author><![CDATA[Sunrise Ritual]]></author><copyright><![CDATA[Sunrise Ritual]]></copyright><language><![CDATA[en]]></language><webMaster><![CDATA[sunriseritual@substack.com]]></webMaster><itunes:new-feed-url>https://api.substack.com/feed/podcast/9081789.rss</itunes:new-feed-url><itunes:author>Sunrise Ritual</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>I wake before the sun and talk about becoming and returning to who you were before you learned to shrink.</itunes:subtitle><itunes:type>episodic</itunes:type><itunes:owner><itunes:name>Sunrise Ritual</itunes:name><itunes:email>sunriseritual@substack.com</itunes:email></itunes:owner><itunes:explicit>No</itunes:explicit><itunes:category text="Society &amp; Culture"/><itunes:category text="Society &amp; Culture"><itunes:category text="Personal Journals"/></itunes:category><itunes:image href="https://substackcdn.com/feed/podcast/9081789/ce3a357d7303329aed84f664a6e80d05.jpg"/><item><title><![CDATA[The Unknown Was Never the Problem ]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>Last year, everything went dark. I couldn’t see. And at the time, if you’d asked me what I was feeling, I’d have said one word: scared.</p><p>But scared turned out to be the lid on something I didn’t have language for yet.</p><p>In this episode I get into where our need for certainty actually comes from, why so much of the certainty we cling to isn’t even ours, and the small experiment that changed how I think about not knowing. Plus the one thing I had to lean on when someone handed me a version of my future I hadn’t agreed to.</p><p>Read the companion piece, "I almost didn't say it out loud" at <a target="_blank" href="https://sunriseritual.substack.com/p/the-unknown-was-never-the-problem">https://sunriseritual.substack.com/p/the-unknown-was-never-the-problem</a></p><p>Intro music: “Gold Flow (Sol Rising Remix)” by DJ Taz Rashid, used with permission.</p> <br/><br/>Get full access to Sunrise Ritual at <a href="https://sunriseritual.substack.com/subscribe?utm_medium=podcast&#38;utm_campaign=CTA_4">sunriseritual.substack.com/subscribe</a>]]></description><link>https://sunriseritual.substack.com/p/the-unknown-was-never-the-problem</link><guid isPermaLink="false">substack:post:206749739</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Architecture, made in the dark]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 12 Jul 2026 21:52:13 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://api.substack.com/feed/podcast/206749739/ee408ff0a446d4d724da81313559d81f.mp3" length="9721535" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>Architecture, made in the dark</itunes:author><itunes:explicit>No</itunes:explicit><itunes:duration>486</itunes:duration><itunes:image href="https://substackcdn.com/feed/podcast/9081789/post/206749739/d13215a136db3fe544912ac63c38abc4.jpg"/><itunes:episode>5</itunes:episode><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title><![CDATA[I Deleted Her ]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>This episode is about the moment I realized I wasn’t struggling to post a video.
