This Halloween, we’re stirring the cauldron of history and calling forth the forgotten healers.

In this special episode, we dive into Witches, Midwives & Nurses: A History of Women Healers by Barbara Ehrenreich and Deirdre English — a spellbinding exploration of how women’s wisdom, intuition, and healing magic were feared, silenced, and yet never truly extinguished.
Together, we trace the lineage of the wise women — the midwives, herbalists, and medicine keepers — who were branded as witches simply for knowing the power of their hands and the mysteries of the earth. We’ll explore how those ancient wounds still echo in modern medicine, and how today’s healers are reclaiming the sacred art of care, intuition, and connection.
So light a candle, pour a cup of something warm, and join us as we honor the witches, the nurses, and the healers — past and present — who remind us that the power to heal has always been ours.
