  • Why Imbolc Matters: Candlemas, Brigid, and the Hearth
    Feb 2 2026

    Send us a text

    In this episode of the Magick Kitchen Podcast, Leandra and Elyse Welles break down why Imbolc matters on the Wheel of the Year, especially when winter feels heavy and motivation is low. They explore the difference between quarter days (solstices and equinoxes) and the often-misunderstood cross-quarter days, and why these seasonal turning points can be the most supportive when we feel least connected.

    You’ll also hear the roots of Imbolc as lambing season and its relationship to Candlemas, plus the heart of Brigid’s Day, Brigid as a goddess of hearth, craft, and creativity, and the ways her presence bridges traditions. From purification and decluttering to fire as release, they offer a gentle, practical Imbolc approach that includes kitchen magic, seasonal foods, and simple correspondences without getting stuck in “doing it perfectly.”

  • Respectful Deity Work: Culture, Consent, and Trust with Deborah Blake
    Jan 18 2026

    Send us a text

    This time in the Magick Kitchen Podcast, Leandra Witchwood and Elyse Welles are joined by bestselling author and beloved witchcraft teacher Deborah Blake for a grounded, practical conversation on respectful, responsible deity work for witches and pagans.

    Together, they explore what changes when deity isn’t “a box you visit,” but part of everyday life, and why cultural context matters when working with ancient pantheons in the modern world. Deborah shares how her upcoming book, Everyday Witch’s Book of Deities (out in April and currently available for preorder), approaches deity work with both historical background and real-world practice. You’ll also hear thoughtful discussion on syncretism (when gods and goddesses overlap across cultures), what “perfect love and perfect trust” can mean in lived experience, and how to start small if you think a deity may be reaching out, including the physical signs both hosts and Deborah notice in their own work.

  • How to Begin a Kitchen Witchery Practice
    Jan 4 2026

    Send us a text

    A new year invites new rhythms, and the kitchen is one of the most powerful places to begin. In this episode of the Magick Kitchen Podcast, Leandra Witchwood and Elyse Welles explore how to start — or refresh — a kitchen witchery practice rooted in green magic, balance, and everyday life.

    They discuss why kitchen witchery and green witchcraft are inseparable paths, how perfection and rigid planning can block magical flow, and why the hearth has always been the energetic heart of the home. From cooking with seasonal ingredients to working with what’s already in your spice cabinet, this conversation offers grounded ways to make magic sustainable, nourishing, and intuitive.

    You’ll also learn how food connects us to cycles — the moon, the body, the land — and why honoring ingredients through use, reuse, and gratitude matters deeply in the craft. The episode closes with a simple cinnamon–apple tea or simmer pot practice you can make right away using common kitchen ingredients.

  • Fiber Magic & Stitch Witchery: Knitting, Ancestral Craft, and Enchanted Thread
    Dec 21 2025

    Send us a text

    In this Yuletide episode of the Magick Kitchen Podcast, Leandra Witchwood and Elyse Welles are joined by fiber artist and co-host of the Knit a Spell podcast, Katie Rempe, for a deep and soulful conversation about fiber magic, stitch witchery, and ancestral craft.

    Together they explore knitting, embroidery, mending, sewing, spinning, and textile arts as ancient magical practices — ways of weaving intention, prayer, and protection directly into everyday life. From blood, sweat, and tears stitched into garments, to repetitive motion as meditation, to crafting as a gateway for intuition and ancestral connection, this episode invites listeners to remember the sacred power held in thread and cloth.

    The conversation weaves through grief and healing, pandemic-era crafting, reclaiming lost communal arts, ethical making, and how working with fiber can become both spellwork and spiritual refuge. Whether you knit daily or have never picked up a needle, this episode offers a gentle invitation to slow down, listen to your hands, and reconnect with the magic humans have practiced for millennia.

    Dec 7 2025

    Send us a text

    In this cozy Yule edition of the Magick Kitchen Podcast, Leandra Witchwood and Elyse Welles gather around the stove for a heartwarming, fully intuitive simmer pot ritual. Together they explore how scent, memory, and elemental magic weave into one of witchcraft’s simplest yet most profound seasonal practices.

    Join them as they build two simmer pots — one on the stove and one in a tiny cast-iron cauldron — sharing the magical correspondences of rosemary, alfalfa, apple, clove, motherwort, lavender, bay, nutmeg, and more. Along the way, they reflect on the blessings of the past year, the lineage of their craft, the art of releasing what no longer serves, and the nourishment that kitchen witchery offers in the dark months.

    This is an episode filled with warmth, laughter, history, and heartfelt magic — a perfect way to honor the turning of the year and welcome the returning light.

  • The Dangers of AI in Witchcraft: Protecting Your Practice and Intuition
    Nov 23 2025

    Send us a text

    In this thought-provoking episode of the Magick Kitchen Podcast, Leandra Witchwood and Elyse Welles dive deep into one of the most urgent topics in modern spirituality — the rise of AI in witchcraft. From spellwriting and herbalism to tarot and dream interpretation, witches everywhere are turning to AI for answers — but at what cost?

    Leandra and Elyse unpack the hidden dangers of using artificial intelligence for magical work, including misinformation, environmental damage, and the loss of personal intuition. They explore how AI erodes discernment, replaces community with false connection, and disconnects us from Earth-based practices. Yet, they also discuss how to use technology mindfully as a tool, without losing your sovereignty or spiritual depth.

    Whether you’re curious, skeptical, or caught in the algorithmic web, this episode offers grounded, witch-tested insight on how to keep your magic human, sacred, and alive.

    This episode is both a warning and a call back to embodied, earth-rooted magic. If you’ve been feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or unsure of your intuitive path, don’t miss the Feminine Wound Masterclass referenced in this episode — a free live event exploring intuition, inner truth, and the healing of ancestral feminine wounds.

    Nov 9 2025

    Send us a text

    In this landmark episode of the Magick Kitchen Podcast, hosts Leandra Witchwood and Elyse Welles sit down with spiritual teacher, psychic healer, and bestselling author George Lizos to explore the modern revival of Hellenic polytheism — the living religion of the ancient Greek gods.

    George shares his groundbreaking experience performing the first Hellenic polytheist wedding in Cyprus, what it means to practice an evolving ancient faith, and how community, ritual, and activism are helping restore sacred traditions to modern life. Together, they dive deep into the real essence of the Greek gods — beyond myth — and explore how these deities represent universal laws, virtues, and living forces that guide us today.

    From the mysteries of Zeus and Aphrodite to the misunderstood roles of Hekate and Dionysus, this conversation bridges witchcraft and religion, exploring how the old ways are alive, evolving, and deeply needed in our world.
