/Powered by RedCircle
On the Live The Width of Your Life podcast, we explore what it means to not only live the length of our life but instead the breadth, depth, and purpose of each day.
She shares her personal story of creating balance in her life by aligning her daily choices to life values, strategies to redefine success, and creating space for a bit of magic and synchronicity.
It's never too late to change! We don't need to have it all figured out to begin; we can take action daily, show up imperfectly, and be amazed and inspired by how beautiful life can be.

More about Sofia:
Sofia Risberg, Ph.D., is a former historian who started learning BodyTalk in 2020. After taking courses, she has been intuitively guided to use that modality as a basis to work primarily with animals to help them find assistance with anxiety, trauma, ancestral patterns, and other issues that affect them.
Sofia’s been on a deep spiritual journey since 2009, when her father died (including adopting her spiritual name), to uncover the programs and beliefs that she took on that kept her from knowing and embodying her divinity (which we all carry within us). When she’s not helping animals, she dives deep into nutrition and explores frequency devices, supplements, and ways to support her body to allow her connection to consciousness to flow more fluidly through her.
