Heroes come in all shapes and sizes, and you bet that includes non-threatening "your Dad's best friend" types like Brad Yates! We are so glad divine timing allowed us to record with Brad before locking down for COVID-19. Brad has helped millions of people through his hundreds of free online EPT (Emotional Freedom Technique) videos. Learn how to take a daily energy-shower, the brain science behind political manipulation, and how everything is energy. Listen, tap along, enjoy, and then utilize Brad's library of tapping vids for any ailment or negative cognition. Whatever it is, there's a tap for that! In closing, Leah and Rachel give Brad (@tapwithbrad) a Goddess Oracle card reading.

With pandemonium spreading over the COVID-19 pandemic, it feels divine to release this episode all about our own innate healing power: mindset. Sky Cowans originally featured us in her Modern Witchcraft video (link below), and now it was our turn to ask the questions. As someone whose job it is to learn and try and better her life, Sky did not disappoint in her answers on the healing power of the mind, experimental science, and the beauty of being a lifelong learner. We explore the topics of hypnosis, overcoming eating disorders, and our gateway drug to all things wellness - yoga! From crazy healing stories to kooky scam compassion, there's something for everyone in this ep. In closing, Leah and Rachel give Sky (@skycowans) a Goddess Oracle card reading.

It's no surprise that Ashley Rickards (MTV's Awkward), an actor with such large range, could talk deeply with us witches. Ashley is a crystal-slinger with a history of horse therapy and a disdain for things that make humans feel separate from one another. We talk about healing in hiding, Mercury Retrograde, how SEXY consent is, and the gifts we can mine out of T/trauma. In closing, Leah and Rachel give Ashley (@ashleyrickards) a Goddess Oracle Card reading. And for the record, she'd like someone to throw her a surprise birthday party.

If you're reading this, stop. Take a deep breath in, and audibly exhale as you let something go. We *know* that felt ahh-mazing because we did a lot of breathwork with "Yoga to Cope" founder Kala MacDonald! She graciously shared her story with us of how two major Traumas in her life led to her yoga practice and her non-profit. We chat about Taylor Swift, the effects of Trauma, how time is a construct, and Kala gives the yogi perspective of death - we guarantee this episode will *stretch* your mind. In closing, Leah and Rachel give Kala (@yogatocope/@yogawkala) a Goddess Oracle card reading.

Like magic - poof! - we got the proof that "witch" is a gender-neutral term and boys ARE witches, too! Mystic Dylan joins the Basic Witches in the studio and this eclectic witch shared so much Goddess wisdom with us. From ancient witch dildos to vegan ritual sacrifices, we really cover the "then & now" of the craft. We chat practical tips for practical magic, the power behind purifying bubble baths, and we pay tribute to the first female entrepreneurs: witches & hoes. In closing, Mystic Dylan (@mysticdylanofficial) reads Leah's palm and gives Rachel a bone reading.

This episode will be music to your ears - quite literally - as Leah and Rachel bring singer/songwriter Kara Connolly into the coven. She blesses us with two live acoustic songs and a whole lot of witchy wisdom. Kara is healing herself and others with her empowerment through experience and song, and we got a peek behind the song-writing curtain for you. We chat hilarious horror stories of running into exes, ghost animal encounters, plant medicine downloads, how Nice Guys are hot AF, and the magic of "doing the work". In closing, Leah and Rachel give Kara (@karaconnolly) a very *fruitful* Goddess Oracle card reading.
