In this episode, I'm joined by Emily Flood, founder of Fitness Witchcraft, who discusses with me how she helps witches feel great in their bodies by tapping into their magic. She combines depth psychology and ritual to create deep intrinsic change and release triggers that lead to unhealthy habits and patterns. Emily shares how working with spirit guides and deities can support physical and emotional healing, and how she incorporates these practices into her coaching. We talked about the importance of aligning your health journey with your ideal future self and creating energetic safety within the body.

In this episode, I'm joined by George Lizos, an author, psychic healer, and Hellenistic priest. George shares his journey of working with the gods and goddesses in Greek religion and becoming a priest in Cyprus. He explains that the gods are not just archetypes, but mirrors of the universe and reflections of universal laws and functions. George also talks about the Greek Wheel of the Year, which honors all 12 major gods and goddesses, and the practice of setting up personal altars to establish a connection with the gods. We discussed the power of connecting with ancestral spirituality and finding a sense of home in our practices.

In this episode, we are exploring the dark divine feminine, which is an aspect that can be found in all of us, regardless of gender. Dark goddesses can be found in almost every culture, pantheon, and mythology as an essential aspect of humanity and working with them as deities or archetypes can be deeply healing to our shadow selves.

We are talking about the myths of Lilith, Inanna, Persephone, Eris, and Melusina, as well as a little insight from the love goddess, Venus, too. I'll be delving much deeper into these goddesses and the shadows and aspects of us they represent during my presentation on dark goddess asteroids during the summit! If you upgrade your free summit ticket to the All-Access Pass, you'll also get instant access to my Heal the Witch Within quiz and course to help you determine which dark goddess will be most supportive for you.

In this episode, I'm joined by Adama Sesay, author of Black Moon Lilith Rising & Cosmic Alchemy Oracle. We are discussing the power of the dark divine feminine and the importance of healing the wounded feminine. Adama shares her journey into astrology and working with Lilith, emphasizing the need for a different lens in interpreting Lilith that includes the experiences of black women. She explores the transformative potential of Lilith and the role of shadow work in astrology, which she will be sharing more of during the 5th annual Empowered Modern Witches Summit from Sept. 23-27, 2024.

This was a fascinating conversation that went to a lot of of powerful places! We talked about how championing the once-demonized aspects of the feminine within all of us is key to healing and saving humanity. (Very Pluto in Aquarius!)

So many of us feel deep fear or shame around being a witch, even though we know we are meant for a magickal life. These are called witch wounds - wounds that have been passed down to us from our collective ancestors during the time of the European Witch Trials, a time when it was unsafe to be known as a witch or even to arouse suspicion of such a thing.

Many of us still carry these wounds that keep us ashamed of the power within and afraid of others finding out about our spiritual, magickal, and witchy inclinations. In this season-opening episode, I'm exploring how this fear and shame can show up in our lives and ways to release them so we can live more authentically.

Here are the key steps to releasing these shadows around your inner witch:

In this episode, I'm joined by Julie Anne Stratton, who is a musician, witch, author, and priestess of the goddess.

We discussed her fascinating journey as a witch and her novel, 'The Witches of Riegersburg', about the witch trials and Burning Times in Austria, the repercussions of which are still felt today in the form of pervasive witch wounds for so many of us.

Julie shared how she discovered her spiritual path while studying music abroad in Europe and how much of her practice is about reclaiming the divine feminine and the interconnectedness of all peoples.

In this episode, I'm joined by Karen Gargiso, an accountant and financial empowerment coach, (and our very own witchy accountant here at Lupine Hollow!) She is a money witch and founder and CEO of Sacred Money, Inc.

Karen and I discussed the integration of practical money management with the emotional, energetic, somatic, and psychological aspects of money. Karen is all about emphasizing the role of pleasure in living a magickal life and how pleasure and sensuality can tranform your relationship with your finances.

I also asked Karen about how astrology can help us understand our financial wounds heal our money mindset.

In this episode, I'm joined by my friend, Kara Harms, the CEO of Whimsy Soul, a lifestyle and travel website. Kara lives local to me in the Bay Area and I've been writing spiritual articles and horoscopes for her site for three years now!

We chatted about the origins of Whimsy Soul and the importance of bringing a little magic and whimsy into your daily life. We also talked about the power of travel and some of the most spiritual and magical destinations we've been to - for Kara, that includes Sedona, Joshua Tree, and Hawaii.

I was excited to have Kara on because she considers herself to be "witchy-ish" but doesn't necessarily identify as a witch and it's always helpful to hear about different spiritual practices and beliefs!
