    Ep 67 - Brave Enough to Pivot: Closing Doors, Clearing Debt & Choosing My Own Way

    This week I’m sharing the real story behind closing my membership, clearing debt and finally feeling empowered in my business. January forced me to get honest about what wasn’t lighting me up, about money, and about the courage it takes to pivot publicly. In this episode we talk recalibration, financial empowerment, brave decisions, and choosing to build something that feels true, even if other people don’t fully understand it. This is about doing business, and life, on your own terms. 🌹 Join The Enchantment My membership of myth, folklore, and seasonal soulwork to help you reawaken wonder in your everyday life. 👉 Join here ✨Loving the Stories?

    Ep 66 - The Twelve Months: A Winter Folktale for January

    January often arrives heavy with expectation, urging us to move faster, decide more, become something new. But winter has never worked that way. In this opening episode of 2026, I begin not with resolutions or reflection prompts, but with an old folktale. The Twelve Months is a traditional Eastern European winter story, retold from The Telling of the Seasons, in which a young girl is sent into the frozen forest on an impossible task. There, she encounters the twelve months of the year gathered around a fire, led by Old Mother January, keeper of winter’s law and time’s turning. What follows is a story about humility, patience, seasonal wisdom, and the quiet power of asking, rather than demanding, life to unfold. After the story, I reflect on what this tale teaches us about January, modern life, and the pressure to rush growth before its time. This episode is an invitation to move gently into the new year, to trust your winter pace, and to remember that rest, waiting, and listening are not failures — they are sacred practices. This is an episode for anyone who feels out of step with “new year, new you” culture, and longs for a slower, more honest beginning. Light the fire.  Winter knows what it’s doing.

    Ep 65 - 2025 Reflections: When Life Took a Wilder Path Than I Planned

    2025 didn’t turn out how I planned it. Not in my work, not in my life. not in my heart. In this episode, I’m reflecting on a year shaped by grief, intuition, and a quieter kind of courage. A year where I didn’t plan to be making candles, didn’t expect to be pouring so much of myself into The Enchantment membership… and didn’t know how deeply losing my Grandad would change me. I share honestly about grief and how it reshapes us, the unexpected wisdom I’ve learned from my Nan, and why trusting your intuition, even when it takes you wildly off-plan, can be the most life-giving thing you ever do. This is an episode about finding magic again when life cracks you open.  About enchantment not as escapism, but as survival.  And about learning to trust the quieter voice that knows where you’re meant to go next. If your year didn’t look like you thought it would… this one’s for you. 🌹 Join The Enchantment My membership of myth, folklore, and seasonal soulwork to help you reawaken wonder in your everyday life. 👉 Join here ✨Loving the Stories?

    Ep 63 - The Elm That Remembered : A Witches Tale

    Step into a haunting, atmospheric November tale rooted in British folklore, witchcraft history, and the old magic of the land.  In this original Wild Goddess story, we follow the voice of an ancient elm tree, once used as a gallows, as it remembers Aldith, a wise-woman condemned in the cold dark of winter. This is a story of injustice, transformation, and the enduring spirit of the women the world tried to silence.  A tale woven with tree lore, old charms, and the bone-deep wisdom of the season. If you love dark folklore, witch stories, ancestral remembrance, mythic storytelling, or the quiet magic of winter’s edge, this episode will speak to your soul. Content Note: This fictional tale draws inspiration from historical witch trials and includes references to persecution and execution (nothing graphic). Light a candle, wrap yourself in something warm, and let the old tree tell its truth. 🌹 Join The Enchantment My membership of myth, folklore, and seasonal soulwork to help you reawaken wonder in your everyday life. 👉 Join here ✨Loving the Stories?
