The healing power of fitness goes far beyond physical benefits—for today’s guest, it’s a form of self-expression and a celebration of what the body can do. In this episode, host Nora McInerny sits down with fitness personality Ivylis Rivera, who shares her deeply personal journey of navigating life with Chronic Migraine while holding onto her passion for movement. Ivylis opens up about the struggle of staying active while facing the fear of triggering a headache or migraine attack and the resilience it takes to keep pushing forward—a resilience that carried her through the challenging journey of finding a Chronic Migraine treatment plan that worked for her. Join Nora and Ivylis as they explore the concept of “soft living,” a philosophy Ivylis embraces—staying active, listening to your body, and building trust in oneself.

A Quarter Century of Quests: Reliving the Magic with Our Top 25 RPGs Remember those late nights, long after we should have gone to bed, controller in hand, exploring fantastical worlds, forging lifelong relationships (even if they were just with pixels on a screen), and saving the world from destruction? That feeling, that immersion, that pure escapism – that's the magic of a great RPG. And for the past 25 years, we've been blessed with an incredible bounty of them. Join us on the latest episode of The Thirsty Mage as we embark on a nostalgic journey through the very best that the world of role-playing games has offered. We're counting down our definitive Top 25 RPGs of the last 25 years, a celebration of the titles that defined a generation and shaped the landscape of interactive storytelling. From sprawling open worlds to tightly-knit narratives, from turn-based tactical combat to action-packed real-time battles, we've explored every corner of the RPG genre to bring you this carefully curated list. This isn't just a list; it's a conversation. It's a chance to reminisce about the games that stole our hearts, the characters we grew to love (and sometimes hate), and the moments that are etched into our gaming memories. Think back to the first time you cast Firaga, the thrill of leveling up, the agonizing choice between two equally powerful pieces of loot. These are the experiences that bind RPG fans together, a shared history of adventure and imagination. Our Top 25 RPGs list reflects that shared history, highlighting the games that pushed boundaries, innovated gameplay mechanics, and crafted stories that resonated with millions. This episode isn't just about nostalgia, though. It's also about rediscovering classics. Perhaps you missed a few gems along the way, or maybe you're looking for a new (old) obsession. Our countdown is the perfect guide for anyone looking to delve into the rich history of RPGs. We discuss what made each game special, its impact on the genre, and why it deserves a spot on our prestigious list of the Top RPGs of the last 25 years. Did your favorites make the cut? Prepare for some tough choices, passionate debates, and maybe even a few surprises. We've done our best to represent the diverse landscape of role-playing games, So, settle in, and join us as we celebrate a quarter century of incredible role-playing experiences. This is more than just a podcast episode; it's a time machine, a portal back to the worlds that shaped us. Tune in now to The Thirsty Mage and relive the magic of the Top 25 RPGs of the last 25 years. (3:30) First 16 RPGs of the Top 25 Games of the past 25 Years…
