  • 'WHY?' Update - Reconciling With What No Longer Works - Alchemizing Abuse & Trauma
    2026/05/15

    My life circumstances have been forcing me to face pain I had long buried in order to alchemize it with the intent to create a better, more sustainable way of holding space for unspoken stories of trauma, abuse, or even confessions, stories we hold back only because we love others and know our story will hurt someone else. When is protection self-harm? Where is the balance?

    These along with how to alchemize our pain that we've held on to in order to protect the innocent are things going to be exploring next along with sharing anonymous stories in a healing space.

    Algol and the New Moon in Taurus are impacting us in a major way right now. If you want to know more about the mythology of the "Demon Star" Algol and how it impacts us now there's an excellent podcast you can listen to: Algol / with Amaya Rourke - starnightdwell .

  • The Meanings of Love - Pt. 2 (Exploring the Different Words For Love - The Last Four)
    2026/02/25

    Concluding with the last four (Greek) words for love.

    The second episode will focus on the more romantic forms of love including, Ludus, Eros, Mania, and Pragma. Let’s explore how these can all show up in different types of relationships and how relationships can develop different forms of love.

    I wanted to conclude by talking about how I’ve experienced all these different forms of love and how the best relationship I’ve ever had has all of the healthy forms of love and what that looks like to me from my experience(s).

    I’d love to hear any questions, comments, examples from your own life, or future topic ideas.

  • The Three Factors That Created Valentine's Day
    2026/02/13

    Any holiday that revolves around gratitude has my attention and love is a favorite topic of mine so for this bonus episode I just want to briefly share the three factors that likely played into the creation of Valentine’s Day. Plus, this bonus episode feels like a nice filling to the sandwich of my love episodes right now, with the second part of “The Meanings of Love” coming out at the end of the month.

    Learning the history of something we feel programmed to celebrate helps me appreciate it more while also feeling more empowered to celebrate it in the way I want to and not the way I’m told to. Personally, I deeply respect the choices of St. Valentine and I’m excited about the upcoming Spring season but can leave the rest.

    For example, I didn’t realize St. Valentine was the patron saint of more than love before doing research on this episode!

  • The Meanings of Love - Pt. 1 (Exploring the Different Words For Love - The First Four)
    2026/02/11

    **Since February is a month of purification and love and with all that’s going on in the world, I wanted to begin season two with a focus on the different Greek and Latin words for love. I have found it easier to understand love when I can break them down into different types and apparently, psychology is doing this more and more as well.

    There are eight main forms of love that I’m going to focus on in the first two episodes of this season. What each one is when it’s healthy and what the unhealthy version looks like.**Edit: This first episode covers the meaning along with the healthy and unhealth expressions of Philautia, Agape, Storge, and Philia and how they shape our early life as well as how that impacts us as adults.

    I hope you can appreciate why understanding how love operates for each of us is an important topic, especially right now. I’d love to hear any questions, comments, examples from your own life, or future topic ideas.

    Please comment here or for more private messages you can email whatshauntingyou@gmail.com or text 480-382-7596.

  • Yule Monsters, Christmas Ghost Stories & Romcoms - 'WHY?' Holiday Bonus
    2025/12/23

    Thank you to those of you sharing my podcast! This bonus episode had to be a quick recording due to life circumstances but I wanted to sum up some research I did on the history of the popularity of telling ghost stories at Christmas time and during Yule. Of course, how these got me thinking about the popularity of romcoms.


    Please forgive the quailty of the recording.

  • WHY Bonus - Alewives, Wortcunners & Witches - Oh My!
    2025/10/27
    I was excited to use Halloween as an excuse to talk about Alewives and how they likely became the blueprint to the scary witch trope we know today. I share a bit of a medieval poem used to disparage a female brew master at the beginning just for fun but you can skip that and go to 4:12 for the podcast.Happy Halloween!Message us at whatshauntingyou@gmail.com for questions and topic ideas.Written, Hosted and Produced by me: MsMicah.comAudio and Visual Production by Jim Hesterman PhotographyResources:The Tunning of Eleanor Running - Poetry FoundationE-text of John Skelton's The Tunnyng of Elynour RummyngWhy Did Women Stop Dominating the Beer Industry - Smithonian MagazineFor Centuries, Women Dominated the Brewing Industry - Atlas ObscuraBubbling Brews and Broomsticks: How Alewives Became the Stereotypical WitchJudith M.

  • WHY Mini-Episode - Scorpio Season Story
    2025/10/22

    We're getting deeper into the darkness now. With that in mind I wanted to briefly share a paranormal experience I had and what it taught me. I'm hoping my message comes across in the spirit of which it's conveyed. We all have our place in the world and areas in which we excel but it doesn't mean "gifts" are exclusive.

    I will be taking the rest of the year off for the holidays but will post bonus episodes as I'm able. Please like and subscribe to watch or listen as I'm able to post them. Then in 2026 I'll have a more consistent schedule now that I know more about what I want to create here.

    Thank you!! Ms. Micah
