Ep. 20 Show me your witches: How myth and story impact our view of the feminine
In this episode of The Reclamation Hour, we explore how the archetype of the witch and societies view on women have evolved together over time.
We dive into the stories—mythological and modern—that shape how we see witches, women, and ourselves.
We explore how powerful women in mythology, literature, and pop culture have been portrayed, villainized, and reclaimed—and how that shapes how we see witches, women, and ourselves.
We discuss:
•The historical and mythological roots of the witch archetype
•How characters like Circe, Morgan Le Fay, Lilith, and Cassandra reflect female power and complexity
•Why women who speak truth or claim power have been feared—and often silenced
•How modern portrayals of witches (like Hermione, Luna, and Sabrina) challenge old narratives
•The duality of healing and harm in witchcraft—and what it means for self-trust
•How storytelling shapes identity, power, and cultural memory
•Why reclaiming the word witch is a deeply feminist and spiritual act
🎧 Tune in to explore how the stories we tell—and the ones we inherit—shape the way we see ourselves and our power.

The Crazy Wound: We stopped burning witches. We started diagnosing them.
In this episode of The Reclamation Hour, we explore the deep roots of the “crazy wound” as an evolution of the witch wound—how women’s emotions, intuition, and spirituality have been pathologized for centuries, and how we can begin to heal.
We unpack:
•The history of hysteria and how it still impacts women’s mental health today
•How systemic gaslighting undermines women’s intuition and body wisdom
•The crazy wound as a form of inherited trauma
•Why holistic, intuitive, and ritual-based care is essential for healing
•The role of shadow work in healing both personal and ancestral wounds
•The importance of support systems and community validation
•How to discern true intuition from trauma triggers
This episode is a reclamation of emotional truth, feminine wisdom, and the right to be fully human—not labeled, silenced, or sedated.
🎧 Listen now for a powerful reminder: You’re not crazy. You’re remembering.
