Courtney Pearl sits down with Jen Boyd, a certified hypnotherapist trained in rapid transformational therapy (RTT) and host of the podcast Her Subconscious Blueprint, to explore how the subconscious shapes the beliefs we carry into adulthood. Jen explains that RTT is not the stage hypnosis people picture. The listener remains in control throughout, and the work relies on the theta brain state, the same state we move through as we fall asleep and wake. Together they examine how money blocks, formed in early childhood, can keep a person from believing they can earn a living doing what they love, even after they have said it aloud a hundred times.

The conversation covers what a session looks like, from intake and childhood scene work to the recordings clients listen to for 21 days. Courtney and Jen compare their approaches to emotional processing and energy work, discuss neuroplasticity and why awareness, choosing, and trust, the ACT method, can interrupt old patterns one small moment at a time. Jen also shares a personal account of physical symptoms she traced to a childhood role of protecting her mother. The episode closes with a practical reminder to vet any healer you hire, including a discovery call.

Practically Magick: Green Witchcraft, Herbalism & the Spiritual Warrior

Courtney welcomes Sage, a green witch and psychic reader who works with plants as a primary spiritual practice. What emerges is a conversation about herbalism as ancestral medicine, the reclamation of the word "witch," and what it means to practice witchcraft as a man in a tradition historically rooted in feminine power.

Sage shares the origin story of Healing Hand Apothecary, named for the healing magic passed down through generations of women in his family. He discusses his signature brews, Witches Brew (a heart-opening, mood-elevating blend), Frog's Breath (a respiratory and communication tonic), Moon Milk (for dream work and liminal spaces), and Blood Moon (a feminine-centered tea curated with intention). Each blend carries both medicinal and magical properties, rooted in the belief that plants have evolved alongside humans to meet our needs.

The conversation touches on epigenetics, ancestral connection, and how witchcraft itself is a spiritual practice available to anyone willing to claim it. Sage speaks candidly about masculinity within witchcraft, the witch wound, and what it means to be a spiritual warrior in a world that has historically weaponized the word "witch" against women and the marginalized.

They also explore ritual as simple connection, not theatrical performance, and the importance of asking permission from plants before harvest, a practice grounded in relationship rather than extraction.

Practically Magick: Mabon, Manifestation & Moving Forward

As autumn arrives, Courtney and Jaime sit down at Rising Moon Minerals to talk about what it means to harvest the year's work and trust the timing of your own expansion.

Jaime's been away from the shop for ten days, reconnecting with family at Flaming Gorge and sourcing new inventory in Denver. But the real conversation centers on what happens when you're ready for something the universe isn't quite ready to give you yet. After eight months of searching for a new space, Jaime finally found the right location, with landlords who actually respond and move things forward. The lesson: patience isn't about waiting passively. It's about understanding that what you want may not be ready for you yet.

They pull the Fawn card from the Season of the Witch deck, which opens into a conversation about inner child healing, resilience, and the belief systems that keep us stuck. Courtney shares her work with a business coach on a core limiting belief: that you can't make money doing what you love. This belief has shaped her entire adult life, from career choices to how she shows up in her business now.

The episode weaves together Mabon traditions, the Wheel of the Year, and practical crystal wisdom with Petrified Site, a transformative stone that supports protection, power, and deep personal change.
