Busy, Gritty, Inked, and Witchy Podcast

This week Morgan is diving into working with Freya, the Norse goddess of love, war, and magick, but not in the way you'd expect. This episode skips her correspondences and mythology (you can find those linked below) and goes straight into her energy: five specific ways Freya can show up in your life and your practice.

Morgan breaks down how Freya's duality gives you permission to hold contradictions instead of picking a side, why her connection to Seiðr makes her a goddess of reclaiming witchcraft itself, and how her role riding into battle alongside Odin ties directly to boundary setting and warrior energy. She also gets into why Freya treats grief as sacred rather than weak, and how sensuality and self-worth tie into real personal power, including a story from Morgan's own life that ended up connecting back to Freya in a way she didn't expect.

Morgan closes the episode with signs Freya might be reaching out to you, plus a very true story about her backyard full of feral cats.

This week, Morgan is joined by Annwyn Avalon, water priestess, author, and someone who has spent the last 16 years walking the priestess path in Glastonbury, the real-life Avalon.

The two connected in the wildest way (through a Morgan Le Fay post, of all things), and this conversation ends up going so much further than water. They talk about what priestessing really means at its core, the vision that led Annwyn to leave her life in the States behind, the ley lines running through Glastonbury, and what it actually looks like to live a devoted, sacred life day to day.

For anyone who has ever felt the pull of Avalon, this one is for you.

Annwyn is the author of Water Witchcraft, The Way of the Water Priestess, The Celtic Goddess Grimoire, and more. Find her at annwynavalon.com and waterpriestess.com.

After 231 episodes, Morgan is finally tackling a topic she gets asked about constantly: how to actually run a witchy business. Thirteen years of Inked Goddess Creations, a brick-and-mortar store before that, and more lessons learned the hard way than she can count, all poured into one very honest episode.

Morgan covers when to start (hint: the timing you're waiting for doesn't exist), how to research your competition without losing yourself to it, and who you actually need to hire versus what you can DIY. Then she gets into her pet peeves, the stuff that makes her want to bang her head against a wall when she sees other witchy businesses doing it. Photos, ingredients, sizing, word salad marketing, and one grammar mistake in particular that drives her up the wall.

She also breaks down the four business pricing models every shop owner falls into, whether they realize it or not, gives her real take on social media and why followers are not the flex people think they are, and shares two customer stories that taught her the hard way that the customer is not always right.

This one runs long because Morgan had a lot to say. If you've ever thought about starting a spiritual or witchy business, or you're in the middle of running one and wondering if you're doing it right, this episode is for you.

Bast is our goddess of the month at Inked Goddess Creations, and she's so much more than the cutesy cat-in-jewelry image most people know. This episode digs into her fierce side, her connection to Sekhmet, and how to actually work with her energy.

Have you ever looked at another witch's altar, practice, or social media and thought: am I even a real witch? You're not alone. Imposter syndrome is incredibly common in the witchcraft community, and in this episode, Morgan breaks down exactly how it shows up and what you can do about it.

This topic came straight from a question inside the Inked Spirit Coven, and Morgan knew immediately it needed its own episode.

In this episode, Morgan covers:

• What imposter syndrome actually is, and why it hits witches so hard
• 7 specific ways imposter syndrome shows up in your witchcraft practice
• The imposter syndrome antidotes: practical things you can do or ask yourself when that gremlin voice shows up
• Why the comparison trap is at the root of so much of what we feel as witches
• Why your practice being different from everyone else's is the whole point
• How imposter syndrome can be a powerful doorway into shadow work
• How to find evidence that you ARE a real witch, no matter how small

The truth is, imposter syndrome doesn't mean you're a fake. It means your practice matters to you. And that? That's very witch of you.

Patreon Bonus Content: Morgan is sharing some of her biggest personal imposter syndrome stories over on Patreon. The bottom tier at $5/month gets you access to all podcast bonus content.

Sometimes the most powerful thing a witch can do is pause.

In this short but honest episode, Morgan shares a real-time update on what's been happening behind the scenes at Inked Goddess Creations- big doors opening, a liminal season unfolding, and puzzle pieces that are just starting to come together.

Did you know that the words "spell" and "curse"- two things deeply tied to witches- both have origins rooted in speaking and words? In this episode, Morgan dives into why she believes the witch's voice is one of the most powerful tools in your practice, and why speaking your spells out loud is a magical upgrade you might be sleeping on.

Morgan covers:

• The historical and etymological connection between witches and the words "spell" and "curse", and why it matters for your magick
• Why she believes witches' words carry more power than the average person's
• The role of thoughts, writing, and speaking in the progression from intention to manifestation
• Why sound waves are energy, and how speaking adds sensation and vibration to your spells
• 5 reasons witches should speak their spells and intentions out loud: claiming what's yours, adding energy, providing clarity, inspiring action, and setting boundaries
• A real personal example of how speaking a shift out loud led to multiple opportunities within 24–48 hours
• Her updated take on spell phrasing, and why emotion matters more than "perfect" wording
• Why affirmations work for some people and not others (and what to do instead)
• Magical correspondences for the throat chakra: gemstones, herbs, tools, and the element of air

In this episode of Busy, Gritty, Inked & Witchy, Morgan goes off-script to share her deeply personal journey with Morgan Le Fay, one of her main matron goddesses and the Goddess of the Month for June at Inked Goddess Creations.

This isn't your typical goddess history lesson. Morgan dives into:

• How a yard full of ravens in Tucson started everything
• Why she initially connected with the Morrigan, and what that goddess revealed in meditation
• The villainization of Morgan Le Fay through history, and the modern reclamation of her story
• What it means to work with Morgan Le Fay as a goddess of transformation, sovereignty, dark feminine energy, and feminine mysteries
• How Morgan Le Fay led Morgan to claim the title of Avalon Priestess
• A full walkthrough of her Morgan Le Fay altar; statues, gemstones, offerings, and daily devotion practice
• The correspondences, herbs, oils, and colors she personally uses in her practice

If you've ever felt drawn to Morgan Le Fay, the Avalonian tradition, or reclaiming your own dark feminine power, this episode is for you.

What happens when a podcast soundbite goes viral and hundreds of strangers decide they have opinions about it?

In this follow-up to last week's episode, Morgan shares the behind-the-scenes story of what happened after a clip from "Are You Practicing Witchcraft... or Just Consuming It?" took off on social media and sparked more than 200 comments. Some people agreed. Some people were inspired. Some people were angry. And some people accused her of being everything from a gatekeeper to a mean girl.

But this episode isn't about defending the original message.

It's about what happened next.

Morgan takes listeners inside her nervous system's immediate reaction, the temptation to take the post down, the decision not to abandon herself, and the surprising realization that emerged from the experience. Along the way, she explores projection, perception, identity, personal power, and what it means to stand firmly in your truth even when not everyone agrees with you.

This episode is a candid conversation about awakening, self-trust, and the role that discomfort often plays in growth. It's also a reminder that every person experiences the world through their own lens, and that sometimes the reactions we receive say more about the listener than the message itself.

In this episode:

• The viral soundbite that sparked hundreds of comments • Why Morgan intentionally chose to share that clip • The nervous system response that almost made her delete it • What projection looks like in spiritual spaces • How perception shapes every experience we have • Why standing in your truth matters more than pleasing everyone • The realization that solidified Morgan's purpose moving forward • The connection between witchcraft, empowerment, and personal awakening

If you've ever worried about speaking your truth, being misunderstood, or taking up more space in your life and practice, this episode is for you.
