Lunar Cycles, Feminine Energy, and Coming Back to Your Rhythm with Christine Marcario

If you’ve been feeling disconnected from your body… if you’ve been trying to force clarity, healing, or momentum… this conversation is your exhale.In this episode, Lindsey is joined by Christine Marcario, Reiki Master, spiritual intuitive life coach, and host of the Aligned and Abundant podcast, for a grounded, honest conversation about feminine rhythm, lunar cycles, and what it looks like to come back home to yourself.Christine shares how her path into Reiki and spiritual coaching unfolded (including a powerful initiation experience), why “action before clarity” is often the missing piece for women who feel stuck, and how lunar phases can support you emotionally, spiritually, and practically, without turning your life into another thing to perfect.You’ll also hear a deeper conversation about intuition vs. fear, boundaries as self-honor, and why authenticity is one of the highest frequencies you can embody. If you’ve been moving through a season of change, shedding, or recalibration, this episode will help you soften back into trust and remember that you’re not broken.
