Kathy Rivera
Founder & CEO
Kathy Rivera (she/her/they) is a first-generation, trauma-informed, queer energy worker, a Mom, and an intuitive creatrix who has an extensive background in healthcare and wellness. She’s a Virgo Sun, Capricorn Rising, and Moon Pisces, so she’s a deeply grounded Earthy being with huge feels and dreams.
Born to immigrant parents who sacrificed their dreams for the “American dream”, she grew up with the pressures of being the eldest daughter, and the first to graduate high school and college. Kathy followed suit to what’s deeply rooted in society and throughout school, and also to make her parents proud—She joined Corporate America and worked tirelessly to prove herself worthy in a system that was never built for her.
Finally, after several burnouts and one life-changing mental breakdown, she left Corporate America to pursue her dreams. Kathy’s a certified Yoga Teacher, Breathwork Guide, Behavior Change Specialist, and Usui Reiki Practitioner, who’s taught a variety of dynamic classes and inclusive, transformational events throughout Florida and Virginia. Her speaking experiences include Virtual Mom Collective–The Body During Motherhood Webinar, Women For Success Virtual Conference, and Witches + Bitches Summit. She’s developed her own unique approach to creating potent experiences that are accessible, dynamic, and much more than asanas (poses).
Kathy creates intentional, seasonal practices that nourish and support her students through every season of Great Nature. She also designs sacred spaces, using energy work as a pathway for somatic release, healing, and transformation. Her passion for mental health awareness has paved the way for helping people understand the power of the breath. This assists in awakening their own healing journey and learning how to celebrate themselves so they can navigate life better on and off the mat.
