Welcome. Grab a cup of tea and let's dive into practical ways to bring the magical into your life.
I'm the bridge between the sacred and the science, two master's degrees and nearly two decades in mental health and special education, rooted in a lifetime of Hoodoo practice. Rootwork, divination, ancestral work, astrology, real psychology, no spiritual bypassing, no picking a side.
From Psalms and protection work to eclipses and the mystical, this is where practical meets magical.
A boy leaves his village because his father commands it. He faces something in the forest that nearly destroys him and comes back a completely different person. I could tell you this story from West Africa, ancient Greece, Ireland, Japan, or the Lakota, and you'd recognize every beat of it.
In this episode, I break down Joseph Campbell's monomyth, the call, the threshold, the ordeal, the return ; and why the exact same shape shows up in myths from cultures that never spoke to each other. Then I bring it home to what it actually looks like to become a rootworker: the call you didn't ask for, the threshold you can't uncross, the ordeal that tests whether you're really willing to carry this work.
This isn't just a story pattern. It's a map of initiation and I think it maps your life too, whether you've ever set foot on a spiritual path or not.

Near-Death Experiences & the Life Review: What My Father Saw
When my father was under anesthesia during heart transplant surgery, he left his body. He watched the surgeons operate on him from above, felt the cold of the ceiling, and told the light he wasn't ready. Then he woke up.
In this episode, I share his story and dig into near-death experiences and what researchers call the life review. The widely reported phenomenon of reliving your life's impact on others in a single overwhelming moment.
We look at what NDEs across cultures have in common, and how ancestor veneration in Hoodoo has been saying the same thing in different language all along: nothing you do to another person disappears. It gets felt, remembered, and weighed.
This one's personal, and it's a reminder that we're always being watched by more than we realize, so it might be time to ask yourself how you'd want to be remembered, right now, not just at the end.

Saint Michael Across Three Traditions: Christianity, Islam, and Working With Him in Hoodoo
September 29th is Michaelmas, the feast day of Saint Michael the Archangel, a figure who shows up with real weight in Christianity, in Islam under the name Mika'il, and in conjure and root work as one of the most called upon protective forces in the tradition.
In this episode I walk through who he is across all three, the folklore tied to his feast day, and practical guidance on when and how to work with him.
