  • Summary

  • Is the season of witches upon us? As the air turns crisp with Halloween and Dia de los Muertos, we are all exposed to more of the mysterious tapestry of witchcraft. In this episode, we dissect how societal paranoia once turned the word "witch" into a weapon, particularly against women seen as different or threatening. This episode unearths the stories of those who were persecuted, tortured, and executed, alongside the powerful narrative of reclaiming this once-pejorative label as a badge of identity and pride.

    Joining us is Michelle, a curandera from New Mexico, who offers her rich insights into the world of curanderismo and its historical ties to witchcraft. As a modern-day healer often labeled as a "brujo," Michelle shares how she and others harness their supernatural gifts to heal and affect change. Discover the empowerment and resilience found in embracing spiritual abilities and learn how these ancient practices are far from relics of the past, but rather vibrant, living traditions that continue to inspire and transform.
