Laura Tempest Zakroff joins us for a conversation about what it means to inhabit your practice, not just perform it. We talk about energy flow, bodily autonomy, and sovereignty in witchcraft: how your body is the first territory you claim, how consent applies to magical work, and why embodiment isn't optional if you're serious about the craft.

Laura's books Anatomy of a Witch and Weave the Liminal are required reading for every student on the Tempering Path, and for good reason. Her work taught us how to ground our witchcraft in the body, how to navigate liminal spaces with integrity, and how to stop treating magic like something that happens outside of us.

This episode is us anchoring our own teachings back to the source, the work that shaped how we understand energy, boundaries, and what it means to be sovereign in your practice. If you've ever felt disconnected from your body in ritual, struggled with energetic boundaries, or wondered how consent shows up in magical spaces, this conversation is for you.

This path isn’t about perfection; it’s about presence. Let’s begin.
