Sentient Medicine

Fri, 03 Apr 2026 06:00:00 GMT

Somatic practitioner, psychedelic guide, and witch Leslie Draffin joins Coraley for a deeply grounded conversation on self-sovereignty, embodiment, and what it means to live in right relationship—with ourselves, each other, and the world around us.

In this episode of Blood Moon Radio, we explore the connection between body awareness and healing, the role of the nervous system in reclaiming your voice, and how personal transformation intersects with the current social and political climate. Speaking from Texas, Leslie shares her perspective on what it means to stay present, aware, and engaged during times of uncertainty.

This conversation moves through somatic healing, trauma, advocacy, animism, and the belief that nothing is separate—that awareness itself can be a form of medicine.

If you’ve been feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or unsure where your voice fits in, this episode offers a grounded and expansive place to begin again.

Topics include:

Somatic healing and nervous system regulation
Self-sovereignty and embodiment
Psychedelic integration and personal transformation
Reclaiming your voice and advocacy
Living in right relationship (animism & interconnectedness)
Navigating uncertainty and staying present

Inner Sanctum

Fri, 20 Mar 2026 06:00:00 GMT

In this episode, host Coraley sits down with Daniel Anderson, a somatic spiritual guide whose work focuses on self-acceptance and striving to make life an experience that is lived, rather than endured. The conversation touches on shadow work, the politics of spirituality and religion, dark nights of the soul, the power of forgiveness and the transformations that happen when we face challenges, experiences and ourselves head-on, rather than circumventing.

The conversation wanders through different topics, but the underlying message is the same. Trusting yourself is the key.

Unapologetic Alchemy 2

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 07:00:00 GMT

In part 2 of Unapologetic Alchemy, Mirey, Avery, and host Coraley, continue to dissect what it means to be called "too much" as a woman. The conversation delves into ways patriarchal and capitalist systems damage both genders, spirituality in modern life, different ways of being, including living with ADHD and whether women called "too much" would be considered too much as a man. The heaviness of the subject is balanced with lighthearted humour, hope and reflection on how far we have come.

Unapologetic Alchemy

Fri, 06 Feb 2026 07:00:00 GMT

In episode one of this two part series, Coraley sits down with Mirey Faema, Registered Clinical Counsellor, and Avery Hubert, University Instructor, to deconstruct the concept of the "too much" woman. How does the messaging of being too much show up in society, professional environments and in interpersonal relationships?

This episode delves into some big topics: feminism, harm done by patriarchal systems, privilege, micro-aggressions and the shifting expectations of gender norms - but the undercurrent of the conversation remains the same - perspective shapes how we interact with the world. And perspective has the power to transmute our lived experience and how we show up for others.

Persistent Magic

Fri, 23 Jan 2026 07:00:00 GMT

In the third, and final, episode of our three-part mini-series exploring Canadian witchcraft, we look at modern practitioners, the resurgence of the craft and how witchcraft continues to respond to political landscapes.

Coraley also reads and responds to the show's first Blood Letter.

Quiet Resistance

Fri, 09 Jan 2026 07:00:00 GMT

Episode two of our three-part mini-series on Canadian witchcraft examines what shaped witchcraft in the aftermath of the witch trials of New France. Rather than disappear, witchcraft went domestic, as it did in other countries where the old ways were forced to hide in plain site. Over time, as attitudes toward non-christian ways of thinking softened, the craft began to weave itself into the mainstream again, with some distinctly Canadian practices, such as Odyssian Wicca, emerging. Canada is also the home of the first Canadian church of witchcraft, The Wiccan Church of Canada, which helped to further push pagan practices out of the realm of hidden familial or cultural belief into accepted, publicly digestible, spiritual systems.

The Lantern Wife

Fri, 26 Dec 2025 07:00:00 GMT

In this special storytelling episode of Blood Moon Radio, we visit the fictional village of Frostmere, where the task of keeping an ancient, magical, lantern alight falls unexpectedly to Mara.

The Lull Between

Fri, 12 Dec 2025 07:00:00 GMT

In the sleepy stretch of the season, we enter The Lull Between — a soft pause, a breath, a moment to gather what the first half of the journey has offered. This mid-season recap is part reflection, part grounding, and part reminder that slowing down is also a kind of magic.

If you’re moving through your own quiet season, you’ll find something here: clarity, conversation, and a little witch-lit warmth to carry you forward.

Founding Shadows

Fri, 28 Nov 2025 07:00:00 GMT

Founding Shadows begins a special three-part mini-series on the hidden history of witchcraft in Canada.

In this first episode, we step back into New France to examine the rarely discussed witch trials, folk fears, and the early laws that shaped how “witchcraft” was understood on this land.

This is a quiet, atmospheric dive into history, power, and the women whose stories were nearly forgotten.

Woven

Fri, 14 Nov 2025 07:00:00 GMT

In this solo episode, “Woven,” Coraley explores the resurgence of witchcraft, the quiet ways magic survived suppression, the threads of ancestral wisdom that still live in our bodies, and the deep need for community — even in a world that feels increasingly fragmented.

Topics in this episode:

– Why solo episodes feel both challenging and necessary

– The survival of witchcraft after the trials

– How magic lived on through domestic craft and lineage

– Different forms of modern practice and what “being a witch” actually means

– Our cultural disconnection from ancestors — and how to mend that thread

Sacred Rebellion

Fri, 31 Oct 2025 07:00:00 GMT

In this episode, host Coraley sits down with Monica Bodirsky — artist, author, witch, and intuitive — to talk about the magic of the mundane, the lineage of our ancestry, and how creativity itself becomes activism.

The ancestral lineage of intuition and witchcraft

Fri, 17 Oct 2025 07:00:00 GMT

What does it mean to build an ethical, soul-led business in a world obsessed with speed and scale? In this episode, we sit down with Juliette, a spiritual entrepreneur and creative alchemist, to explore what it means to live — and lead — with integrity, magic, and meaning.

Awakening

Fri, 03 Oct 2025 07:00:00 GMT

In this episode of Blood Moon Radio, I sit down with Catherine Bell — best-selling author, entrepreneur, and founder of The Awakened Company. Together we explore what it means to bring balance, heart, and the feminine into our work, our relationships, and our leadership.

We talk about the dance between masculine and feminine energy in business, the value of diversity in teams (and in life), and how spirituality and strategy can weave together to create something sustainable. Catherine also shares insights on what it takes to cultivate organizations — and lives — that are rooted in meaning, creativity, and connection.

✨ If you’re curious about how to blend business and spirituality, or how to bring more soul into your daily life, this conversation will inspire you.

Reclaiming Witch

Fri, 05 Sep 2025 07:00:00 GMT

What does the word witch really mean? And why does it still spark fear, controversy, or even trolling comments online?

In this solo episode of Blood Moon Radio, I dive into the history and the present of the witch — from healers and midwives, to persecution and control, to the modern feminist reclamation of intuition and women’s wisdom. Along the way, I share pieces of my own story and why this word feels alive, powerful, and worth reclaiming.

This episode is part history, part personal reflection, and part offering: a remembering of the women who came before us, and a gathering space for the stories and wisdom that still matter now.

Taming Monster

Fri, 22 Aug 2025 07:00:00 GMT

A raw and fearless conversation with best-selling author Jowita Bydlowska on women’s voices, sexuality, shame, aging, perimenopause, and the radical power of naming our monsters.

Naming Monster – The Power of Voice | Blood Moon Radio

What happens when women speak the unspeakable? When we NAME the monster, call out shame, and refuse to bow to silence?

In this electric conversation with best-selling author Jowita Bydlowska, we wander into the territories we’re not supposed to talk about:

✨ The CLITORIS and female pleasure.

✨ The FREEDOM that comes with AGING.

✨ The untamed POWER of PERIMENOPAUSE.

✨ Facing FEAR and stepping into RISK.

✨ Trusting INTUITION and unmasking SHAME.

This is not polite conversation. This is witch chic rebellion. This is where taboo becomes truth, and where women claim their power back—body, mind, and voice.

Dare to listen. Dare to NAME your monster.

Season 1, Episode 1 — Blood Moon Radio

In this short, introductory solo episode, host Coraley opens the door to Blood Moon Radio with vulnerability, intention, and the first whispers of a larger story. Reflecting on the aftermath of a transformative period in her life, she explores what it means to move from collapse into creation — from grief into growth — through the lens of The Empress tarot archetype.

This is not the full spell — not yet — but a soft beginning. A test of the waters. A voice returning. A prelude to what’s coming.
