In this special Q&A episode, we're answering your most burning questions, from stepping into your teacher era to running a business with a squiggly brain. We chat about what it actually feels like to start teaching before you feel “ready,” how to infuse your writing with ritual and intention, and simple ways to make your garden a living altar (yes, even if the squirrels eat your seedlings).

We also get real about what it’s like to run a business with ADHD, why structure can be a double-edged sword, the power of accountability, and the importance of outsourcing the stuff that drains your magic. Whether you’re navigating fear, planting new intentions (literally or figuratively), or trying to find the flow in your creative practice, this episode is here to remind you: it’s okay to do it scared.

We’re diving headfirst into spring cleaning, witchy style! This episode is all about harnessing that fresh seasonal energy to clear your space and renew your spirit.

From tackling chaotic closets and cable nests to turning humble dryer lint into spellwork and calling on the fae to help you mop, we’re blending practical to-dos with a healthy dose of magic. Molly shares how spring cleaning aligns with the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) view of renewal, while Madison explores the emotional weight of those grimy shower curtain liners and dusty altars.

We’re also talking about the power of figurines, the mysteries of lawn witchery, and offering you a little sneak peek at Molly’s upcoming book. So, whether you’re elbow-deep in decluttering or still in denial about that dryer vent, grab your broom, this episode is your invitation to infuse a little magic into your cleaning ritual.

In this heartwarming and hilarious episode, we’re joined by a VERY special guest, Madison’s mom and co-conspirator in both life and business, Christy Howard! Known lovingly as “the mom in Florida” to many, Christy shares her deeply personal spiritual journey, from a midlife panic attack to discovering her calling and opening The Healing Hedgewitch.

We dive into what it’s really like to parent a witchy kid, why your spiritual practice doesn’t need to be flashy to be powerful, and how menopause has shaped her relationship with intuition, ritual, and cronehood. Christy also reflects on raising Madison with openness, humour, and a deep respect for her autonomy and shares some surprising psychic stories from Madison’s childhood.

Whether you're navigating a spiritual awakening, embracing the crone era, or just want to hear a truly magical story about four rescued kittens, this episode is a must-listen.

In this chaotic Q&A episode we take a detour from our usual structure to answer your submitted questions! From feeling disconnected from your spirituality to spell fails and Sims-based candle magic (yes, really), we dive into how everyday routines can spark magic moments.

We share our current favourite tarot decks and cards, how to imbue emojis and objects with intention, and the messy magic of starting to read professionally. Plus tune in to hear more about spirit guides and a heartwarming chat about grief, growth, and giving ourselves grace.

What happens when magic meets meaningful action? In this episode, we talk with Gina Luker, a generational witch, soft life mentor, and founder of Illumine Magazine, about how she blends witchcraft, activism, and community care.

Gina shares her journey from DIY blogger to politically engaged practitioner, and how her family's folk magic traditions shaped the path she's on today. We explore the role of collective action, sustainable activism, and the power of using your voice, whether through spellwork or her political letter-writing campaign, Project Maelstrom.

This conversation is a grounded and inspiring look at how spiritual practice can be a force for resistance, joy, and real change.

What does it really mean to connect with the spirit element, and how can it guide us through change and growth? In this episode, we celebrate the end of a meaningful chapter and dive into the energy of spirit, or ether.

We also explore the spirit element through the lens of traditional Chinese medicine, focusing on the wood element and its connection to the liver, gallbladder, vision, and personal growth. Tune in for a grounded, honest conversation about how spirit shows up in real life, and how you can start noticing it in yours.
