Hello beloved listeners, this is Adrienne, writer of stories and songs, which emergent strategist,

pleasure activist, and homeowner, living in the land of the Chiquori, Scurray, Tuscora,

you know, and Lombi peoples, and this is how to survive the end of the world, our podcast

about learning from apocalypse, grace, rigor, and curiosity.

When I say hour, of course, I'm including my sister, Autumn, who's away on sabbatical.

In her absence, and in honor of my book Fables and Spells, I'm going full-witched this season,

and having conversations with my favorite witches and teachers, and I'll also read you

little bits and pieces from the book as we go.

As a reminder, what I mean by which are people who work with elements of the natural world,

including human nature, to generate more possibilities.

Witching is engaging the essential natural world with magic, healing, or supernatural intentions.

Some names for what I'm including in which work?

Shamanism, sorcery, seeing and healing, herbalism, midwifery, and doula work, raky, root

work, conjuring, ritual, spellcasting, astrology, and divination.

All these ways that we build direct relationships with the realm of the ancestors, the spirit,

the holy, the ethereal, and ourselves.

As a reminder, we don't have any ads on this show, we don't have any sponsors or big

backing funders.

This show runs on listener support.
