In this episode of the Wild Wonder Podcast, Jill Dresser from French Quartour Kids Tours joins hostess Kristen Llorca from New Orleans to dive into New Orleans ghost stories.

Learn what these stories can tell us about the people who passed them down, where there can be found, and who these ghosts are. Ghost stories also reveal a lot about power and privilege, stereotypes around women, children, and different races.

Stories and superstitions also allow us to understand people's fears of the time- strange illnesses, new leaders, and social tensions. Plus, they're primary sources! We can use these fascinating stories to have kids engage in primary sources, visualize life in the olden days, and gain perspective on past events.

In this conversation with journalist Luca Signorelli, we dissect the role of the artist, genius vs. mental distortion, the human need to be seen, and the perils of social media before the creation of social media.

De Maria's cult-classic "20 Days of Turin" was written shortly after the student uprisings of 1968, when The University of Turin was a hotbed of dissent and rebellion, and the city of Turin itself was under siege. At the time of this book's writing, De Maria would have been living through one of his country's biggest revolutions and deadliest years - the Years of Lead (Anni di piombo).

On this episode of the Wild Wonder Podcast, host Kristen Llorca speaks with channeler, explorer of The Akasha, and conduit Sophia Hornyak on what it means to tune into your frequency, trust your own channel, and be spiritually sovereign.

As part of Sophia's newest curriculum, she guides students in harmonizing one's own frequency to Self, trusting their own channel, learning the language of Spirit and of their own nature or spiritual ecosystem. Sophia believes language is our greatest barrier, and that in learning to communicate and trust one's Self (rather than looking to others' definitions) we align closer to our own divine nature. To learn more about Sophia's work, visit www.divinevoidsophia.com.

On this episode of the Wild Wonder Podcast, host Kristen Llorca welcomes evolutionary astrologer and author of the American Renaissance Tarot Thea Wirsching. Together, they dive into the lessons of the Venus archetype, which ask -

What do you love?

What do you crave?

What feeds your senses?

Filmed during Venus Retrograde, Thea explores the Tarot's Two of Swords and its association to the dynamic relationship between the mind and heart. This episode invites us to elevate our ideas around the love of the other and self-love - how sometimes a journey of a thousand miles leads us right back to ourselves.
