  • 222. No, It's Not Ethical To Curse Someone For A Difference of Opinion, Or Political Purity and Witchcraft Today
    2025/09/17

    In this episode, I discuss how the feminist magazine Jezebel paid Etsy witches to curse Charlie Kirk, and use this to get into a larger issue in the witchcraft and pagan community at large right now - the idea that it is ethical to curse someone for a difference of opinion. The quest for "political purity" within left wing woke witchcraft communities is something we should all be denouncing. Witches are too concerned with aggressively wielding power against those they don't like, and need to take some time and space to ground ourselves in ethics and true morals, and remember what witchcraft is really about - healing ourselves and living a good life. Witchcraft is not about cursing people we disagree with, period.

  • 221. Witches Shouldn't Be Celebrating Assassination and Cursing People We Disagree With
    2025/09/16

    In this episode, I continue discussing the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and I talk about the witchcraft community's response to it. Many famous witches have been celebrating Charlie's murder, and mere days before the assassination, the feminist magazine Jezebel paid some Etsy witches to curse/hex Charlie Kirk. As witches, we should not be condoning this behaviour, and it is important we extricate this rot and toxicity from witchcraft spaces; this work is unethical.

  • 220. Charlie Kirk, Assassination Culture, Freedom of Speech, Emotional Fragility, and the Throat Chakra
    2025/09/11

    In this episode, I begin by remembering the souls who passed on 9/11, and move on to talk about the horrific rise of assassination culture and murder as spectacle, with the recent murder of conservative influencer Charlie Kirk. Regardless of what your politics are, we should all be horrified and upset that someone was gunned down - intentionally - for exercising their right to free speech, basically for having even-handed, logical, calm debates with opposing parties out in public. Diversity of thought is foundational to a functioning and healthy democracy; we are all at risk when it becomes commonplace for public intellectuals to get assassinated for their speech. I also talk about grievance culture on the far left, as well as the emotional and intellectual fragility that would cause people to wish to (and justify) lashing out violently against those they disagree with. A heavy but important episode for people of all political persuasions.

  • 218. Failure, Resentment, Influencers, and What We Do With Inspiration
    2025/08/01

    A certain kind of person will be inspired by you one minute and then block you the next. When they realize what you've built isn't quite so easy to achieve overnight, they end up resenting the fact that they ever encountered you. Their own failure at what you inspired them to do makes hem resent you. They shift the blame onto you in order to avoid the pain of their own failure. They don't realize failure is a necessary initiation into the possibility of success.

    Whatever side of that coin you fall on, whether you're a dreamer, influencer, small business owner, or just a human doing your best to live the best life possible, I'm sure you've failed, been resentful, been resented, been inspired, inspired others, and been tempted to blame everyone for your own failures (and give up on chasing your dreams). This episode talks about all of these complicated things, how they relate to each other, and how we can best look at things through these topsy turvy ups and downs.

  • 217. Are You Overgiving? How To Stop Betraying Your Own Boundaries and Honour Your Own Capacity
    2025/07/30

    Are you overgiving? Are you having a hard time stopping? If so - or if you've experienced this in the past with others or within yourself - you won't want to miss this episode. Overgiving can come from a lack of boundaries, poor self-regulation, refusing to pour into and nourish ourselves, and a desire to be loved, accepted, and valued. Stop overgiving and reclaim your power and personal sovereignty. In this episode, I talk about why people overgive, how to stop overgiving, and how to slow down and pay attention to what your own body is telling you about your own capacity.

  • 215. Compulsive Behaviour, Self Control, and Energy Leaks: What to Reflect on This Mercury Retrograde
    2025/07/19

    In this episode, I talk about this month's Mercury Retrograde, and how we can work with this energy to reflect on our own relationship to impulsivity, bad habits, and addictive behaviours. I frame this in terms of cultivating healthy masculine energy to contain ourselves and our desire for excess, rather than being at the whims of every feeling we have. This comes up with compulsory sexuality, excessive online shopping, porn usage, arguing online, cheating, drama addiction, and more - these are all energy leaks. If we are witches interested in directing our energy towards our goals, we need to get a handle on our energy leaks! Listen to this episode to learn more and to get some inspiration for what to reflect on this Mercury Retrograde.
