On this St. Paddy's episode, I'm inviting you to come along with me on a journey to the thin space - from the shores of the Scottish Isles to the Blue Ridge Mountains of NC in the US.
My favorite part of a holiday is sharing the highlights of history, and connecting what we can cherry pick today that works for us. Continuing with traditional celebrations, and making our own new traditions brings us closer to our ancestors of yore and to ourselves and our beloved ones in the here and now.

On this Valentine’s episode, special guest Dani Young, is sharing her "How To Romance Yourself" series with us. We’re going to talk about how to love yourself radically with the food artist herself. Its not all Michelin stars, y’all don’t want to miss out on our Taco Bell secrets!
Dani and I both know the pain of food insecurity. I would like to encourage those of us who are able to love with action on Valentines Day. In addition to romancing ourselves and our loved ones, let’s look up our local food bank and consider a donation. Let’s create and take a meal to someone we know may be in need of it.

Hey Y'all! Grace here. If you, like me, have survived fundamentalism, I welcome you to this wholly irreverent space. A sanctuary of sorts for those of us who have broken free from all kinds of…
Often in the process of deconstruction, we find ourselves left with a void held for the casseroles and the cobblers. You know, the dishes dropped off on our doorstep during challenging times as an expression of care and belonging. As we build this community, I look forward to satisfying that longing by writing new recipes together and gathering each episode to break digital bread.
Wrestling with and reveling in our reconstruction, we explore many perspectives, sharing stories from all walks of life - creating functional beauty and discovering practical magic right in the midst of the messy, the muddled, and the mundane. Join us as we unashamedly and unabashedly cherry-pick ancient and modern practices to find out what works best for you and me in our daily lives.
On this podcast, I invite you to reconsider both mediocrity (and the way it makes the world go ‘round) and spirituality (and the way it works in mysterious ways).
To help others find us and let us know what kind of content you enjoy most, please take a moment to subscribe, follow, rate, and review Mediocre Mystic as you tune in on Apple, Spotify, Substack, YouTube, or wherever you find your podcasts.
Mediocre Mystic is proud to partner with a network of interspiritual and aspiritual practitioners as featured contributors. Mindful Maraschino episodes highlight practices from YOU. These collaborations make for a rich feed to explore practices that are doable and miraculously sustainable for you.
