This week’s question comes from instagram:
What does it mean to be a witch?
I love this question, and it came at a perfect time. Just last week, someone left a comment on the Spotify broadcast of this show, saying something like, “Good content, but use something better than Witch.” 😒
And to that, I say, Nope. I’m keeping it. I love the word Witch. It feels so specific, and for me, it’s deeply tied to how I show up in the world.
So today, I’m going to share my personal take on what it means to be a Witch. I’ll talk about how I embody the Witch archetype and what that looks like in my life. And I’ll explain why the word Witch means so much to me—and why it might resonate with you too.
Key Topics Covered:
The Witch’s Lifestyle: For me, it’s not just about rituals or spells, but about empowerment and choosing yourself—choosing your desires on purpose.
My Personal Practice: Everyone’s journey with witchcraft is personal and unique, and I want to share how I approach it.
Witchcraft Meets Self-Help: I’ll explain how working with energy, spirituality, and the unknown has been key in helping me live at my highest potential.
Co-Creating Your Reality: Whether that’s through ritual, intention-setting, or taking aligned action in your life, witchcraft is all about bringing your desires into the material world.
Choosing Yourself: The core of being a Witch, for me, is about choosing yourself—living intentionally and freeing yourself from self-sabotage, shame, and fear. I’ll share how this has been such a powerful part of my journey.
Resources Mentioned:
Self-Help Witch: My blend of astrology, witchcraft, and empowerment.
Personal Gnosis: The idea that witchcraft is about personal knowing—each of us has our own unique practice.
