This week on Affirm That Sh!t, I’m joined by Karena, a woman who turned grief into grit and silence into spellwork. After her mother’s death, Karena embraced the word “witch”—a word society has long used to shame powerful women—and made it her own. From starting The Witches Inn to launching her program From B*tch to Witch, she’s building spaces where women can reclaim their bodies, their magic, and their voices.
We talk about grief, anger, and the historical persecution of women who dared to lead—and how those same wounds show up today as labels like “too much” or “bitch.” Karena opens up about her first childhood encounter with a Ouija board, the chaos that followed, and how those early brushes with the unseen set her on a lifelong path of spiritual reclamation.
Her story is raw, real, and relentless. It’s about turning pain into power and fear into fuel. If you’ve ever felt the weight of societal expectations pressing down on your soul, this episode will show you what happens when you throw off the shackles and rise.
