Sometimes even the best laid magical plans can go up in flames spectacularly (sometimes even literally- like when you go to smoke cleanse your house and set off all the smoke detectors).

What do you do when your beautifully planned ritual time doesn’t go according to plan at all? You pivot, lean into it, and accept what is happening instead of running for the hills.

Join Nicole in the backyard for some surprisingly yummy moon milk (made with the wrong herb because- of course it was), and a chat about what to do when magic goes wrong and you feel anything but magical.

As the wheel of the year continues to turn, we welcome Beltane, a cross-quarter holiday that celebrates creativity and the life flourishing all around.

Join Nicole in her office today (not in the backyard) for ramblings and musings about all things Beltane and some super easy magic you can do to celebrate the season. With a little witchcraft sprinkled in for good measure.

You don’t have to be Wiccan (Nicole isn’t!), or a witch to celebrate this day, but if you do, it doesn’t have to be fancy or complicated.

Join Nicole in the actual desert backyard today. Background audio complete with birdsong, beeping cars, and airplanes, oh my!

We talk about the magic of the desert, learning to love the land on which you live, and deeply connecting to the spirit of place. This is applicable no matter where on earth you are, desert or otherwise.

We also discuss weather spirits, plant spirits, and more. Tips included for practicing backyard magic for people who don’t have backyards and live in cities or very small spaces with limited access to outdoors.

A fun, rambling episode literally in the backyard. Pull up a chair, grab your favorite beverage, and let’s talk desert magic!
