In this deeply personal and folkloric episode, I'm sharing another original story, The Old Woman of the Wind, a mythic Irish-inspired tale about the power of change, the wisdom of the winds, and the quiet strength found in surrender.

Inspired by my wonderful Irish Nan from Ballina, County Mayo, this episode weaves together folklore, intuition and change, reminding us that the winds of change are not here to destroy, but to guide us back to ourselves.

You’ll be transported into a world of mountain caves, whispering air spirits, and wild November skies and invited to reflect on what the wind might be trying to tell you.

🕯️ In this episode, you’ll explore:

• The symbolism of wind as transformation in Irish folklore
• The spiritual meaning of change and surrender
• How to embrace life’s inevitable shifts with grace and courage

🌬️ Reflective Journal Prompts:

1. Where in my life am I resisting change, and what might I be afraid to lose if I let it happen?
2. What has the wind carried away from me this year — and what has it quietly delivered in its place?
3. How would it feel to trust that every ending in my life is simply the wind clearing space for something new?

This episode is a balm for the soul, a story for anyone standing on the edge of change, ready to breathe deeper and trust the unseen forces that move through our lives.

✨ Listen now and let the Old Woman of the Wind remind you: you cannot ask the wind to be still and still wish to fly.

Step into the magic of Samhain, the season of endings, ancestors, and enchantment, with this hauntingly beautiful folklore tale, The Lantern Keeper. ✨

In this special Samhain episode of The Wild Goddess Podcast, I'm inviting you into a world between worlds, where a woman named Elara ventures into the dark forest to rekindle her light. Guided by the Crone of the Cauldron, she discovers that true illumination isn’t borrowed or begged... it’s fed by honesty, courage, and the willingness to face our shadows.

This original Wild Goddess story blends Celtic folklore, witchcraft, and feminine wisdom, capturing the spirit of Samhain through vivid storytelling and sacred symbolism - the crow, the cauldron, the flame. 🌒

After the tale, stay for a Samhain reflection and candle ritual to help you release what no longer serves and tend your own sacred flame through the dark half of the year.

Perfect for those who love Samhain rituals, witchy folklore, dark goddess magic, spiritual storytelling, and ancestral connection.

🔥 Inside this episode:
– Samhain wisdom and the meaning of this sacred turning
– The Lantern Keeper, an original Wild Goddess folklore story
– Reflection prompts and a simple lantern ritual

In this episode of The Wild Goddess Podcast, I'm sitting down with Kalie, founder of Soul Sister Society—a women’s self-development book club turned community hub for real growth. We talk about turning pages into practice (hello reading journals, accountability, and taking action), why self-development can feel lonely, and how sisterhood, rituals and reflection make the work actually stick.

Kalie shares how her book club evolved into a wider spiritual space with chapter-by-chapter podcast summaries, journal prompts, affirmations, meditations, and new/full moon rituals—plus her upcoming membership, Sisterhood Rising (launching 1 January 2026). We explore manifestation beyond money, seasonal living, goddess wisdom, and the confidence that comes from community.

If you’ve ever thought “I’ve read the books—so why hasn’t my life changed?”, this one’s your sign. Come for the cosy reading vibes, stay for the practical tools and the reminder that you don’t need perfection to begin—just one honest step.
