Friends! Welcome to 2025! In this upcoming year of the snake (!) I talk about why this year should be your villain era - especially if you're freaked out by the idea. Also, psst, we are back to our original podcast name, woohoo! Expect this to be the podcast's forever title; at the top of the show, I explain what all went down and why there have been so many changes.
Read MoreWhy release a poetry book about healing from sexual violence and rape almost 11 years to the day after the fact? In this episode of the Claim Your Magic podcast with Sabrina Scott, I talk about my brand new (and first ever) collection of poems, why I'm releasing it now, and how creativity can help us heal from the traumas we've been through.
Read MoreYes, that's right! Contrary to popular belief, witchcraft doesn't actually have anything (inherently) to do with feminism. Can you be a witch and a feminist? Of course. But being a witch doesn't mean you have to have certain politics, or even have political inclinations and opinions at all - let alone work with them in your spirituality and magic. This episode was inspired by an experience I was very blessed to have recently: being asked to comment upon a book up for potential publication. I'm not naming names (and never will, that's not the point; also, these ideas are widespread), but it has become taken for granted in many spaces that witchcraft and far left politics are one and the same. In this episode I explain why that's not true. Also, a little update on my new poetry book, Rapeseed, and the successful Bodymagic Kickstarter campaign!
Read MoreFrom eclipse season to eclipse season, the Claim Your Magic Podcast with Sabrina Scott returns! ...And guess what I've been up to during my time away? Well, painting a brand new book, of course!
Read MoreHi friends! ARE YOU EXCITED?! I’m excited! In a little more than 12 hours we will have a total solar eclipse bopping diagonally over North America, and I have to say I’m already buzzy with both apprehensive and excited vibes. In this podcast episode I talk eclipse viewing safety for anyone traveling to totality or planning to view the partial eclipse, and offer some tips for reflection and magic and alchemy for anyone going cocoon mode during this time and choosing not to view, or living somewhere where viewing isn’t possible. I also share when in the last few years this eclipse loops us back to. Happy eclipsing!
Read MoreYes, another witchcraft documentary! This time, here are my thoughts - I could not help myself as someone who absolutely loves documentaries! I even wrote a paper about the representation of witches in documentary film back in my undergrad - the short version is, at the time, back in probably 2009, witches were presented as either silly or sexy. This documentary falls into neither trope, but still completely misses the mark with its focus on identity and reincarnation, rather than witchcraft and magic itself. In this episode I give my full thoughts on the documentary “Coven” which you can watch for free on CBC Gem.
Read MoreGuess what? Despite the self-important activists thumping around on social media, virtue signalling in every which direction, you are absolutely NOT a narcissistic and self indulgent spiritual bypasser if your witchcraft is undoubtedly local instead of global. A lot of witchcraft - including the kind I practice - has always been rooted (literally and figuratively) in the unabashedly local: healing ourselves, undoing inter generational traumas, protecting our homes and families, and cultivating deeper connection with heritage, land, and environment. If you wanna do global political witchcraft, go for it - but stop shaming any witches who are keeping their practice closer to home.
Read MoreIt’s a leap year! I’ve noticed that my biggest transformations have been during leap years - and in this episode of the podcast, I talk all about the potency and magic of this year. Have you ever incorporated leap year energy into your magic? Let’s talk about it!
Read MoreIn this episode I talk a little bit about trends in witchcraft, and do a flash back to my early days of practice in the 1990s. Back in the day, it was thought that everyone had to had a “patron deity” or deities. Now, it’s known widely that there are so many different forms of practice, with many people focusing on animism or Christian witchcraft. I share a bit about the first deities I worked with and why, and how they helped me, and share a little on how my altar practice has changed over time.
Read MoreHappy lunar new year + new moon folks! In this episode I talk about how this energy is a fresh vibe (and what to do with it), what I decided to do for lunar new year (launch a brand new membership and community), aaaand of course some inspo from David Goggins (because why not).
Read MoreHi friends! Wow, who would have thought - me of all people talking about IMBOLC?! Wtf! Well, yes! In this episode I talk all about what this holy day has come to mean for me over the past few years, and why it is this burst of fresh energy we can all work with in some way. If you’re not Wiccan and still want to engage with this cross-quarter energy, this episode includes multiple ideas for how to do so.
Read MoreI love winter solstice! Happy solstice, friends. In this episode I talk all about what the energy of winter solstice (aka Yule or Yuletide) is, how to work with it, and how we can welcome back the light while banishing the shadows that no longer serve us.
Read MoreHow did I spend the first moments of my birthday, and why?

Read MoreThe magical in the mundane. If I had a shot of tequila for every time I heard someone in witchy land say that, I would be wasted. But what does it actually MEAN on a practical every day level? In this episode I talk about one of these every day sacred places for me: the grocery store. I also discuss how eating, making, and learning about food can ignite our senses and reconnect us to the magic and beauty of all that is.
