This week on Witches Wild, we’re diving broom-first into the place where magick and mental health collide — the shadowy space no one in witchy TikTok wants to talk about.

Because here’s the truth:
Half the things people call “a curse” are really unprocessed trauma.
Half the things people call “intuition” are anxiety wearing a witch hat.
And half the things people call “awakening” are… well… a full-blown nervous system malfunction.

We’re breaking down:
• how to tell the difference between a spiritual message and your brain bullying you
• why mental health struggles DON’T disqualify you from witchcraft
• how witches throughout history worked with the mind, not against it
• why your intuition doesn’t work when your nervous system is on fire
• how to stop glamorizing suffering as “spiritual depth”
• and the real magick of healing your inner world before you cast a single spell

This is the episode that blends shadow work, somatics, sovereignty, science, and “holy shit, that explains my entire life.”

Witchcraft isn’t an escape from your mind — it’s a way to work with it.

If you’ve ever wondered, “Is this magick… or is this my mental health?”
We’re going there. All the way there.

Because being a witch doesn’t mean you’re broken.
It means you’re powerful — and you’re learning to hold that power with both hands.

WITCHES WILD EPISODE DESCRIPTIONS

In this episode, we’re dragging one of the biggest lies in modern witchcraft —
the idea that you can grab a cute spellbook, light a candle, recite some rhyming words, and suddenly your whole life changes.

No, babe.
Magick doesn’t start with the moon.
Magick starts with YOU.

Every other witchy podcast hands you a stack of spellbooks and says “Go manifest!”
We’re here to tell you the truth they won’t:

If you don’t know who you are,
If you don’t understand your energy,
If your intuition is clogged,
If your emotions are trapped,
If your nervous system is fried,
Your spells won’t do shit.

So instead of throwing you into potions and prosperity rituals, we’re taking you back to the foundation —
the self.

This episode is your real Witchcraft 101:
the inner work, the sovereignty work, the “get your power back before you try to wield it” work.

We talk about:
• How most new witches accidentally skip the most important step
• Why spells “don’t work” for people who haven’t done their inner clearing
• How learning your own design, intuition, and emotional landscape activates your actual magick
• Why protection magick must come BEFORE witchcraft
• And only THEN — the books that actually matter on your witch path

This is the witch’s reading list flipped on its head.
No fluff. No glitter. No fake TikTok aesthetic witchery.

Just power.
Just truth.
Just the real path.

Welcome to the witchcraft education you should’ve gotten from the very beginning.

In this episode, we’re dragging one of the biggest demons in modern witchcraft straight into the light…
perfectionism.
The curse that keeps more baby witches stuck than any hex ever could.

WitchTok told you that you need a $2,000 altar, a moon-blessed chalice forged in dragon fire, twelve ethically sourced herbs, and a degree in “Aesthetic Witchcraft” before you can even light a candle.
And suddenly everyone’s stuck in preparation paralysis, hoarding supplies, binge-watching tutorials, and convincing themselves they’re “not ready yet.”

Meanwhile the ancestors are in the astral realm screaming:
“JUST START, BABE.”

In this hilariously feral episode, Auric and Jess rip apart the myth that you need to look like a cinematic sorceress before you’re allowed to practice. We talk about the trap of performative spirituality, the comparison curse, and how social media glam has tricked so many witches into thinking witchcraft is a vibe instead of a practice.

We break down:
• Why perfectionism is the ego’s sneakiest form of self-sabotage
• How WitchTok aesthetics derail real magick
• Simple, zero-cost ways to start your practice TODAY
• Why messy magick is the most powerful magick
• The difference between studying the craft and actually doing the craft
• And the spiritual revolution that starts when you stop performing and start practicing

If you’ve ever felt “not witch enough,” this episode is your cosmic permission slip to dive in, get your hands dirty, burn the rulebook, and reclaim your craft from the algorithm’s chokehold.

Because here at Witches Wild…
good witches aren’t perfect, they’re powerful.
