In this episode we speak briefly on my hiatus and the future of the podcast.

Hi Moonpies!

In the very first episode of the True Altar Podcast Madie offers six different journal prompts to guide you in a Mid-Year reflection.

This episode isn't about advice, but motivation! How can you encourage yourself to strive to better outcomes for the latter half of the year.

Don't be so hard on yourself though if you haven't made substantial progress towards your goals. Change your perspective and look outward instead of in all the time, you may have made more progress this year than you think!

Follow me on Instagram and Youtube for personal updates, witchy offerings, and posting schedule!
