Witchy Woman Walking

When you think about the truly magical holiday moments you've experienced throughout your life, what comes to mind? Is it the spending money you don't have? Or waiting in endlessly long shopping lines to buy things nobody really needs? Painfully posed holiday photos?... probably not... Before diving mindlessly into holiday chaos this season, stop to think about the wonder your soul reall...

It's that time of year again... the energy starts to pick up as the holiday season approaches. The magic of this celebratory time often gets lost in the shuffle of activities. How do we stay present when our calendar fills to the brim? How do we maintain our rituals when we're running on empty? If we want to keep our spiritual practice at the center of our lives, we must first release th...

Creating a magical practice doesn't have to be complicated or carefully curated. What if we strived for authenticity in our practice rather than perfection? Engaging in simple daily rituals is arguably more impactful and more enjoyable than embarking on the occasional complicated craft. Remove the limiting expectations and allow yourself to settle into an authentic (possibly messy) practice o...

Samhain is upon us! The veil is thin and our ancestors are waiting to be invited to the table. In this episode, we'll talk about the history of this ancient festival and how to bring these sacred practices into our modern lives.  This episode may inspire you to carve a pumpkin (or creepy turnip!), host a dumb supper, and create an alter for your ancestors. Grab that pumpkin spice latte and le...

Am I a witch? This seemingly simple question is actually quite complicated for many of us to answer. How do you know if the label applies to you? And if it does apply to you, does it even matter?

We'll marvel at the explosion o...

The October New Moon and solar eclipse is upon us! This is a time for turning inward and setting intentions for what you'd like to grow during the upcoming moon cycle. We'll talk about clearing the decks in order to create a more conducive space for the reflective work the new moon calls us to do. The autumn leaves are finally starting to change as we take this crisp morning walk through...

How do we honor our natural cycles when our culture constantly demands linear productivity? Is there a way to rest and restore amidst the busyness of modern-day life? How can ritual and practice keep us connected to our spiritual center?  This episode will explore how to find moments of connection and grounding and why it's critical to our mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. This con...

Finding magic in the mundane just might be the secret to a joyful life. In this episode, we'll talk about how an ordinary existence can be full of more intention, meaning and, yes, magic! If you're a fan of Trader Joe's, cinnamon brooms, and pumpkin spice lattes (a polarizing beverage, for sure!) then this episode is for you. Today's witchy walk will include rushing water, invi...

Welcome to Witchy Woman Walking! I'm thrilled to have you here for this introductory episode. This podcast is like a moving meditation; I'm bringing you with me on my walks as I connect with nature and spirit. For me, autumn (fall) is the best time to connect with our witchy selves. And since Mabon is upon us, this conversation will be full of inspiration surrounding the autumn equinox....
