Ep 26: Letting Go of Unnecessary Suffering
Life is full of suffering. Why would we take on more suffering when we don't
have to? Today, we discuss, religious propaganda, capitalist mentality, and
relationship norms around suffering. We also get into obnoxious confidence, what
it is, and how we can use it to live our best lives.

Ep 24: The Radical Act of Dreaming
In this episode, we discuss the act of dreaming and how it showed up in our
childhood. Using Toni Morrison's 1988 Sarah Lawrence College's commencement
speech, we discuss dreaming as an act of liberation, the role dreaming plays in
abolition work, and how we've dreamed our lives into existence.

Customer Reviews
💋💋💋💋
I am so thankful to have come across ANOTHER podcast that speaks to my spirit. In the few episodes I have started you guys have helped me bring light to a lot of things in my life and on this journey. Also, shout out to Mississippi! I’m from Chicago but I spent many summers with my grandma in the Delta.
Love this show
I love everything about each episode ♥️🔥
Leah Walentosky
I absolutely love this show, and the perspective. I stated listening to this show to get the perspective of fellow witches from different racial background than me and I am learning so much. I particularly liked the episode about God and Nature. As a survivor of depression and suicide, I know first hand in the healing powers that being with Mama Earth can bring. I came to know her as the Triple Goddess of Celtic folklore. I fist came across your show because I don’t know too many who share my first name, so special shout out to Leah from Leah. Blessed Be to you both.
