The Village Witch Podcast

Grounding with tree energy

In this episode, Isabel tries out a new format that might become a regular thing, and digs into how we can use the energy of the earth to picture ourselves as trees and ground more deeply. They share about energy theory, explain the energetic field, and guide a visualization meditation.

Dating culture hot takes

As a polyamorous person of seven years, Isabel has done A LOT of dating! In this episode they discuss how dating is a skill that we could all benefit from honing (monogamous or non), the misuse of therapy talk and Tarot talk, and the rhythm of dating throughout multiple solar years, along with other spicy observations and opinions.

Connecting with nature on unceded land

Join Isabel as they sink their roots into the nitty gritty of loving the land you live on, when you know it was violently stolen (perhaps by your ancestors). The genocide of European colonization on Turtle Island is a forever grief - how can those of us who are not indigenous be loving stewards of this land while acknowledging this violence and organizing alongside Native communities? And what does all this mean if you were born here, and this is the only home you’ve known? Isabel shares their perspective as a channel for nature’s messages and someone continuously learning how to get involved in collective healing.

Making art is energetic conversation

This episode, Isabel digs into why and how we make art, and what nourishment comes from both creation and showing your creation to others: when we share our art and receive joy, appreciation, gratitude, or even backlash in return, this can begin an ongoing energetic conversation between maker and viewer / reader / listener. Where do you source your energy to keep creating?

Gender, beyond the binary, and debunking divine femininity

In this Pride Month episode, Isabel offers guidance how to be a conscious neighbor to folks of all genders, and explores the limitations of the words "masculine" and "feminine," divine or otherwise. They talk about unlearning the internalized patriarchy we've all got sneaking around inside of us, and offer ways to break free of skin suits that don't seem to fit anymore, into liberated gender monstrosity.
