    Mythology of the Sámi

    This episode, Shannon and Laura speak with Nina Mielipäivä, a Sami heritage holder and author of Mythology of the Sámi - Minorities Within Minorities, to explore what Sámi culture means today and why reclaiming stories matters. Together, they unpack what the word “witch” can mean in Indigenous and marginalized contexts and what drew Nina to write a book centered on minority voices within minority communities. The episode offers a clear, accessible introduction to who the Sámi are, their history, and the nuanced ways identity and sovereignty unfold across communities. The discussion dives into how the Arctic landscape shapes Sámi spirituality, myth, and storytelling, reflections on deities, the animal world, and sacred beings. They explore shamanic practices and drum traditions with care, underscoring the respect and responsibility required when approaching these traditions in modern spaces. Tying it together with a note of hope, the conversation turns to language revival, cultural reclamation, and the resilience that sustains Sámi culture. If you’re curious about Indigenous spirituality and minority histories, this episode invites you to listen with curiosity, care, and a sense of shared wonder.   Support Nina- Buy the Book -Mythology of the Sami Nina suggests the following places are a great place to start learning more:  Vaietut Juuret - Silenced Roots by Nina Maaninka https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0a5x78VQ62M   Be or Not To Be A Sámi by Hervé Magnin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFNffAHjgrU   Support Turns Out She’s a Witch- over on Patreon, click below I want in!- The Patreon Coven!   Book a session with Shannon, and get yourself something magical @⁠⁠AshaMoon⁠⁠ Visit Of Earth and Ether Oracle ⁠⁠Get in touch, we would love to hear your questions and stories Email infobloom@bigpond.com Follow us, and DM on Instagram ⁠⁠@turnsout_shesawitch⁠⁠ Produced & Presented by Shannon Cotterill & Laura Turner.

    The Magic of Music- with Cass Campbell.

    Turns Out She's a Witch welcomes Cass Campbell, musician and sound journey artist, and founder of Music for the MindTM. In this episode we delve into Cass’s early love of music, working as a detective, and the winding path that brought her to founding Music for the MindTM, a journey where sound becomes a compass... We look at how sound and rhythm can shape wellbeing, and forge a sense of togetherness within groups - the subtle dynamics that emerge when people gather to listen and play as one. We delve into both the science and the lived experience of healing with sound and frequency, sharing how auditory patterns can nudge the body towards equilibrium and move the spirit. The conversation turns to breath, voice, chanting and drum rhythms, and their tangible effects on the body - in particular the vagus nerve. We consider tempo’s powerful grip on mood and its unexpected roles in cinema and ritual, unpacking how pace can tilt perception and emotion in surprising ways. And through it all, Cass offers glimpses of her creative vision: a favourite quote that speaks to her, a Divine Tool of the Week that listeners can try, and a look ahead at the projects she’s weaving for the near future!
