TXT us your feedback!! <3 your fayce! Things got weird. And not just "spooky story time" weird. It was full-on haunted podcast chaos this week as Riva and her daughter hit record, thirty episodes in, and tonight was the first time the tech itself decided to get possessed. Microphones glitching, machines coming alive, random interference everywhere. Is that just October vibes or was something actually in the room with us? You won't believe what we caught in post edit!!! In this special Hall...

Spooky Special: The History of Tarot

The Ritual Nurse ·

2025/10/24

TXT us your feedback!! <3 your fayce! This week, we’re taking a journey through time and trust me, it’s wilder than any Halloween story you’ve heard. Tarot didn’t begin in the dark corners of an occult bookstore or a dusty Romani caravan (yep, we’re busting that myth). It started in Renaissance Italy as a card game for nobles who probably had more coin than conscience. So how did those gilded game cards become the magical, psychological, and spiritual tool we use today? We’ll trace the tra...

The Ritual Nurse ·

2025/09/22

TXT us your feedback!! <3 your fayce! Walking into HR can feel like stepping into the unknown. For many nurses, it is a place of fear, frustration, and unanswered questions. What does HR really do?

In this episode of The Ritual Nurse Podcast, Riva sits down with her friend Brynnen, an HR professional who shares what it looks like from the other side of the door. Together, they break d...

In this episode of The Ritual Nurse, Riva dives straight into the heart of toxic workplace culture and its devastating impact on nurses’ mental health, resilience, and retention. This conversation isn’t about “having thicker skin” It’s about calling out the mean girl culture that’s been allowed to fester for too long. WE'RE DONE.

The Four Agreements of Nursing

The Ritual Nurse ·

2025/06/18

TXT us your feedback!! <3 your fayce! The Four Agreements of Nursing — This week, Riva dives into a deceptively simple book with a surprisingly deep message for nurses everywhere: The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz. But this isn’t a book club. It’s a reckoning. Because when nurses are expected to carry entire systems on their backs, absorb everyone’s trauma, and do it all with a charting pen in hand… how the hell do we stay whole? Turns out, The Four Agreements might be the answe...
