Retrospective Paths Podcast
Podcast Description
Welcome to your sanctuary for the every day, the unhinged, the confused, the neurotic, the healed, the addicted, the traumatized—basically, all the authentic souls navigating this messy thing called life. Hosted by yours truly, Zania, this space is where real-life experiences, emotions, and journeys of healing collide with raw, unmasked conversation.Here, we get uncomfortable, dive deep into spiritual and cultural truths, we sprinkle in some darkness and light, and shake things up with a little bit of unhinged energy. It’s not about having it all figured out— and as the great Kurt Cobain said, come as you are, no matter how complex, no matter how how long or far you've been down, whether you're broken, whole, or somewhere in between, Retrospective Paths is where like-minded (and not-so-like-minded) souls come together to navigate, challenge, and heal. Let’s get real, messy, and alchemize.

Welcome to Retrospective Paths. A sanctuary for the real, the raw, and the becoming.
Hosted by Zania, this space holds honest conversations about the human experience; healing, spirituality, creativity, mental health, addiction, relationships, and everything in between.
Here, we explore the messy, beautiful complexity of life. We get uncomfortable, we reflect, we laugh, we break things open, and we look at what it means to grow through it all.
It’s not about having it figured out. As Kurt Cobain said, come as you are.
Retrospective Paths is where stories are shared, truth is spoken, and transformation is always on the table. Let’s get real, messy, and alchemize.

In Episode 1 of Season 2 of the Retrospective Paths Podcast, I sit down with Chantal Spanicciati, Somatic Healer, to talk about why we feel stuck, overthink everything, and get that tight chest feeling out of nowhere. Like… am I crazy? Is it motherhood in a chaotic world? Perimenopause? Or is it something deeper?
We dive into somatic healing, nervous system regulation, and how stress and trauma actually live in the body, and why certain patterns keep showing up no matter how much therapy you’ve done, how many affirmations you’ve said, or how self-aware you are.
Listen in as Chantal breaks down what’s really going on, and shares her somatic healing approach to gently guide us back into the body.
It’s real, a little spiritual, and a reminder that you’re not crazy, your nervous system just needs support.
