Most of us say no to new spaces before we've even considered them because somewhere along the line we learned that being in a room with other women means managing emotions. Don't sound braggy, don't be too loud, don't be too much 🫠
Soften the good news so nobody feels bad about their own...the list can go on and on.
That's the witch wound - the old, inherited fear that being seen, being powerful, and being openly magical isn't safe.
In this episode I'm joined for the first time in a long time by two guests: Jenn Reagan, event planner, choreographer, and three-year Enchanted Sister, and Naomie Harris, certified astrologer and the woman who wrangles the chickens here at Sisters Enchanted. Together they built and ran our gathering in Salem, Massachusetts with a whole lotta' witchy women, most of whom had never met in person, walking into a room together.
We talk about what came up before anyone arrived like the inbox full of women talking themselves out of coming. Jenn deciding to get on a plane while her basement filled with floodwater and why that turned out to be one of the best decisions she's made. The cliques that started forming before the event even began, and how we brought the energy back up instead of down into who-said-what.
And the highlight ➡️ witnessing and being witnessed. Nobody teaches us this. It's a muscle, y'all, and community doesn't work without it.
🌙 If you've ever hovered over the join button and closed the tab then this one's for you.
✨ What you'll walk away with:
— Why "I'm too empathic for group spaces" is often the witch wound in disguise
— The question that makes hard decisions simple: how do I want to feel?
— Why cliques form out of fear (and how to widen the circle instead of calling people out)
— What separates actual community from a Facebook group with a nice name
— How to practice witnessing (and let yourself be witnessed) without deflecting
— Why the more authentically you show up, the less "fitting in" has to happen
🖤 You don't have to fit in, but you do have to let yourself belong. There's a difference, and we get into it.
Stay Magic, Enchanted Sister!
