Finding magic in the mundane just might be the secret to a joyful life. In this episode, we'll talk about how an ordinary existence can be full of more intention, meaning and, yes, magic! If you're a fan of Trader Joe's, cinnamon brooms, and pumpkin spice lattes (a polarizing beverage, for sure!) then this episode is for you. Today's witchy walk will include rushing water, inviting puddles, and a fair amount of mud after three days of continuous rain. The autumn leaves are just starting to turn, the air is getting crisper, and witchy folks are here for all of it! Are you ready to walk? Let's stroll!
