Do we really get a do-over? And if we do, what do we lose? Sometimes, the universe knows exactly what she's doing.
Snuggle in, y'all. Time to talk about the past, and how we are creating it with every flutter of our wings.
(I meant to come back to this for more sound edits, but to hell with it. Raw work it is!)

Snuggle in, Batchildren. We chatting about bravery in the face of monsters, finding protection in the most unlikely shapes, and forging forward in a storm. You are already brave enough, Witch.
Special shoutout to my grandchild and my new best friend, a rat snake named Winifred.
Love y’all like chicken, Seba

Trigger Warnings, all around: this episode is about abuse every single kind of it.
My daughter has come home to heal. It's been nearly twelve years since I've wrapped my arms around her, but Mother's Day changed that. She is broken, bleeding, and in need of support.
I will be posting her Freefunder here. She is the direct recipient--and she is more than worthy of support.
I don't think I did her story justice in this podcast. My voice sounds strained, unlike myself, and for that I apologize. The emotions kept getting in the way, especially as I see a maternal story (curse?) being passed down to my daughter. It's not okay. And this is, most assuredly, a Witch issue, Batchildren.

We've all done it, haven't we? Just went ahead with our normal warding practices, not one thought to whether or not they even could still hold water--much less, something nefarious.
Snuggle in and let's chat about rotted boards, broken entryways, and our own complicity when it comes to protecting what we matters.
Love y'all like chicken-, Batchildren.
xoxo, Seba

Okay, y'all: Mandi wrote in and had the best question ever that focused (mostly) on what to do with offerings to ancestors/Fae/deities. It's one of my favorite topics, and y'all know we had to hit the dirt on this one.
Settle in. And thank you, Mandi. :) Love y'all like chicken, Seba

So, many moons ago, I did an episode on getting back to the Witch body as a way to become more whole. Then, the other day on the phone with a Cauldron Level Batchild, I was asked: okay, well, what do we do when we've walked the steps to answer the call to action and need to get back to our body? To rest, to restore, what do we do?
Damn, Beth. What a perfect question. I hope my answer isn't too shocking, or weird, but: it's what I do. And that's the only place I can speak from.
I love this episode more than most. It mattered more than many. And I cannot thank you enough for asking it.
Love y'all like chicken! Seba
P.S. Get yor' ass outside and play, Batchildren. Do it like your life depends upon it. Because it does. :)

This one is incredibly personal, to say the least. But we have become personal, Batchildren. So let's go.
Wasted time is a real thing, no matter how much sunshine we try to pump up our own arse. It grieves me that I’ve done it, and this is what I’m doing to address that loss. I have one year left of my fifties, and I plan to shove as much joy as possible into it.
Manifest something. Make it awkward. :)
Witchify it.
Love y'all like chicken,
Seba

This is the last installment of "what to do if you are called to action." Plan, prepare, practice, then: JUMP. With every action, there is risk. Assessing that, accepting that, is critical in the fight ahead of us.
Protecting what we love is worth it. And if energy only understands “go,” then what is our energy and where are we sending it?
Love y’all like chicken.

Hey, y'all, this is a long one. I met this listener at the Batchildren Ball several years back and she feels like family. So I gave it hell. She's a bit stuck, the way we all have been at some point in our lives, between potential paths to take. Thank you, K, for writing in!
Find that fire, Witch. Then, add wood. Love, Seba

This is Part II of “Called to Action,” what do you do next? Learning to nurture sustainable energy sources is a no brainer, but for me, the last place I consider is myself. Snuggle up on the porch.
Let's talk about the next step in preparing for what's to come. Love y'all like chicken, Seba
