Compulsive Behaviour, Self Control, and Energy Leaks: What to Reflect on This Mercury Retrograde | The Secrets of a Witch Podcast with Sabrina Scott episode 215
Compulsive Behaviour, Self Control, and Energy Leaks: What to Reflect on This Mercury Retrograde | The Secrets of a Witch Podcast with Sabrina Scott episode 215

In this episode, I talk about this month's Mercury Retrograde, and how we can work with this energy to reflect on our own relationship to impulsivity, bad habits, and addictive behaviours. I frame this in terms of cultivating healthy masculine energy to contain ourselves and our desire for excess, rather than being at the whims of every feeling we have. This comes up with compulsory sexuality, excessive online shopping, porn usage, arguing online, cheating, drama addiction, and more - these are all energy leaks. If we are witches interested in directing our energy towards our goals, we need to get a handle on our energy leaks! Listen to this episode to learn more and to get some inspiration for what to reflect on this Mercury Retrograde.

In this episode, I talk about what boundaries are, and how best to think about and enact them.

Love Is Not Enough: Abuse and Dysfunction Aren't Healthy Love (Thoughts After Watching the Gabby Petito Documentary) | The Secrets of a Witch Podcast with Sabrina Scott episode 196

Is love enough? 'Love' has been a word/concept people in abusive and dysfunctional relationships often use to stay in the relationships they're in. This is a bad idea. In this episode of Secrets of a Witch - with thoughts inspired by binge-watching the recent Netflix documentary on abused and murdered young woman Gabby Petito - I explain why.
