I cannot stress how much this episode is needed in the world. Alexa's story of witchcraft being the catalyst to discovering and connecting to her own culture and ancestral heritage is unfortunately not an uncommon one. Many BIPOC, colonized, and demonized cultures were forced to hide, erase, and assimilate their rich and beautiful culture away. People like Alexa and I are now consciously choosing to take up the mantle of reconnecting to our cultures despite feeling like an outsider. Through sharing her story, Alexa, talks about her modern brujeria practice and her decision to take on the title of the High Priestess of Mother Nature in her business, The Bruja's Tomb.
Alexa Branco is an intuitive Earth witch and High Priestess of Mother Nature. Heavily influenced by her Latinx background, Alexa’s shop The Bruja’s Tomb is a vessel for her magic. Here she offers witches, femmes, and outcasts the knowledge and tools they need to live fulfilled, connected lives. Through her strong connection to Mother Nature, Alexa creates powerful products and readings to guide you to truth and transformation.

My intention for this episode to was to talk about my personal experience with setting boundaries to better navigate complicated familial relationships with the holiday season approaching us. BUT it really became an episode about learning to listen to your body to create more safety and love in your life through setting boundaries. I heavily focus on setting boundaries with family members that are toxic, abusive, or unwilling to meet you half way. A lot of my family history has been with emotionally, mentally, and physically abusive people and I wanted to create this episode as a living resource for you to begin listening to your body and finding your best path to safety.
Setting boundaries with family members who may be toxic or abusive can be harder than with an ex that we can completely cut out of our life and are therefore more nuanced and life long. Be gentle with yourself as you navigate this journey and know that you don't need to do anything to deserve love, safety, and happiness. You deserve it now and always will.
The last 15 mins are dedicated to the witchy ways we can set smaller boundaries with family members that can be applied to abusive, or non-abusive and just uncomfortable situations.
Patrons will receive a downloadable PDF to help them navigate setting boundaries as shadow work!

This episode I am joined by Celebrity Occultists, Mediums, and Séance Hosts Kat and Dan Eckhart! Together we chatted about their journeys from regular people to literal dark academia embodied, their most haunting seance stories, and their vision for the future of occult. Kat and Dan's revolutionary vision for approaching all that lies beyond the veil through mediumship and studying ancient occult practices makes me so excited because I love when people want to empower others to feel safe enough to explore the beyond! They are truly the next iteration of Ed and Lorraine Warren, but 1000x better!
