In this episode, I talk with Hadas Knox about her new book and oracle deck, and what it's like being both self-published and traditionally published. We talk about the creative process, including her experiences with burnout, and how she moves through insecurities or doubts. She also shares a life-changing encounter she had with plant medicine and how that experience has opened her up spiritually and creatively. I hope this conversation inspires you!

Hadas is a New York-based writer drawn to the wild threads of history, folklore, mythology, motherhood, and magic. Her debut Victorian romance novel, Dove in an Iron Cauldron, was released in Spring 2025 and is available in hardcover, paperback, ebook, and on Kindle Unlimited. Her first oracle deck, Folklore Oracle, was published earlier this month by Rockpool Publishing. Stay tuned for her next book, a selkie-inspired romance fantasy set in the Middle Ages, coming Spring 2026, and a new oracle deck arriving in Autumn 2026.
