- Religion & Spirituality
Join Leandra Witchwood and Elyse Welles in discussions on magick, food, herbs, tea, rituals, and more. This is where witches come together to talk about our interests and experiences. Leandra Witchwood is a Modern Witch and small business owner based in South-Central, PA. She founded the Magick Kitchen Blog, which has now evolved into The Magick Kitchen Podcast, co-hosted with Elyse Welles of Seeking Numina. As an esteemed author, she has written four transformative books on Witchcraft and shadow work. Her unwavering passion for crafting sacred spaces is evident in the women's circles, rituals, and workshops she leads at various festivals and events with figures like Silver RavenWolf and Clan an Drumma.
As a Master Herbalist and Reiki Master, Leandra channels ancient energies to heal and elevate others, directly reflected in her tea blends at The Witchwood Teahouse. Leandra hand blends each tea from scratch, offering power, intention, and flavor into each brew.
Within the Rebel Mystic Community and Academy, she generously shares her wisdom with fellow witches as she offers online learning and private mentoring. In monthly community events, Leandra draws from her specialties in Occult Herbalism, Shamanism, Reiki, esoteric knowledge, and Shadow Work Mastery, guiding seekers through Folk & Shamanic Witchcraft, somatic practices, breathwork, and rituals while nurturing a deep connection to the Divine Feminine.

S7E2 - Finding Ancestral Veneration Practices that Work for You ft. Ben Stimpson
Elyse and Leandra are joined this week by Ben Stimpson, author of Ancestral Whispers, an incredible book (perhaps the definitive one) on ancestor work. The veil is thin at Beltaine, as it is Samhain in the southern hemisphere, so May is a great time to joyfully connect to your ancestors. If you've been wanting to connect, this is the time to reach out!
Ben Stimpson (He/They/Them) is a therapist, lecturer, student, and spiritual director. Ben has developed courses on a variety of topics, including ancestor veneration, the power of story, and folklore. When not working with clients or writing, Ben is engaged with his areas of study: religious studies, medieval and classical studies, folklore, and spirituality. Get his books here and find him on Instagram @benstimpsonauthor.
