Turns Out She's a Witch

This week we share stories that highlight the deep spiritual connection between humans and animals - thank you to our dear listeners who shared their experiences!
From animals showing up symbolic of a loved one in spirit, to seeing particular animals as an omen, to animals in the dream space with protective energy...
Shannon discusses common symbolic meanings of birds, horses, butterflies and the wolf. Laura shares an animal themed Divine Tool of the Week - whiskers - and some practical ways to use them.
We hope you enjoy!

Laura and Shannon catch up with Jonathan Robinson, a Austin-Texas based certified hypnotherapist and past life regression practitioner. From discussing what “the Witch” means to him to sharing transformative client journeys and the metaphysical dimensions of healing, this episode dives into past lives, trauma shifts, and how his forthcoming app ‘Journeys into the Subconscious’ aims to empower beyond one-on-one sessions. Tune in for real-life soul journeys, what a regression feels like from the client’s perspective, and practical insights into freedom and identity across lifetimes.

Season 9 kicks off with episode one, and Shannon and Laura are back on the podcast sharing life updates and diving into the world of Animism — the belief that natural objects, places and beings (think animals, plants, rivers, mountains and even the weather) all carry spirit or consciousness. We explore how spiritual practices are always evolving, and Shannon opens up about how the way she honours the Elements has shifted over time — both in her personal practice and in how she now holds women’s circles. Along the way, we get a little playful, chatting about animals and the Elements they represent to us, and where they show up in our lives.

In our final guest episode of 2025 we’re thrilled to welcome back the incomparable Lucy H. Pearce - author, artist, teacher and founder of Womancraft Publishing.
Known for transformative works such as: ‘Medicine Woman’, ‘Creatrix’, ‘She of the Sea’ and her bestseller ‘Burning Woman’, Lucy returns to share the magic behind her newest creation - Gather: A Celebration of Women’s Circles.
This powerful compendium brings together over 60 voices from around the world - including one of our very hosts, Shannon!!- to explore the traditions, wisdom and transformative energy of women coming together in circle.

Lucy also reflects on the evolution of Womancraft Publishing as a global hub for women’s wisdom, shares a resonant quote from the book, and offers her personal rituals for closing the year and calling in fresh energy for the new one ahead.
