  • 120: Boundary Setting and Back off Magic for a Stress Free Summer
    Jun 20 2025

    It’s Spellcraft Summer, witches! Join Laylla and Chelle for a no-nonsense, deeply magickal conversation about reclaiming your peace through protective and baneful magick. Yes, we’re talking hexes, curses, sour jars, freezer spells, and shut the fuck up magick.

    This episode is about being a powerful steward of your personal peace. We explore how baneful magick can be part of a healthy spiritual practice, especially when used to protect your energy, enforce boundaries, and process anger in sacred ways. From the science of consequences to the symbolism of covered mirrors, we’re unpacking the deeper layers of shadow work and spellcraft.

    Laylla shares the story of her mom’s workplace hot foot success, Chelle gets spicy about cord-cutting obsessions, and both throw some shade at the idea that witches are only allowed to be nice.

    Tune in as we explore the magickal art of saying “no” with a little extra summer heat.

  • 119: Midsummer Magick: Litha Lore and the Fair Folk
    Jun 13 2025

    It's summertime and the magic is easy. Chelle and Laylla turn their magical gaze toward the firelit heart of the Wheel of the Year, Litha, the Summer Solstice. As the sun reaches its peak and the days stretch long and golden, our favorite witchy duo dives into the vibrant energy of this high holiday, exploring the themes of abundance, sensuality, solar magic, and the subtle shift toward shadow.

    Join us as we dance with the lore and light of Midsummer, share ways to celebrate the solstice from your own backyard or altar, and conjure up some mischievous fairy magick inspired by A Midsummer Night’s Dream. From honoring the Fae with honeyed offerings to calling in midsummer dreams with mugwort and moonlight, this episode is a tapestry of seasonal wisdom, ritual ideas, and that special blend of mischief and reverence Laylla and Chelle are known for.

    So pour yourself some sun tea, slip off your shoes, and let’s get back on the broomstick for a celebration of the longest day, the deepest magic, and the whisperings of the Otherworld.

  • 118: Wise Earth Medicine with Lalania Simone
    Jun 7 2025

    In this episode of Back on the Broomstick, Laylla and Chelle welcome back Lalania Simone to talk about her brand new deck, Wise Earth Medicine Tarot. Blending traditional tarot structure with the healing wisdom of the natural world, this deck brings together animals and plants to offer grounded, earth-based insight for personal reflection, growth, and divination.

    The witches and Lalania explore how this deck goes beyond the typical human-centered imagery of tarot, tapping into the primal intelligence of animals, plants, and the land itself. Each card offers not just traditional tarot meaning, but also the unique medicine of the featured creature or plant, allowing readers to connect with nature’s wisdom in a deeply personal way. From the insights of the poppy to the soaring message of a hummingbird, the deck opens up new pathways of intuitive understanding.

    They also chat about how Wise Earth Medicine Tarot can support personal growth, magickal practice, meditation, and spellwork, as well as how nature-based tarot decks can sometimes help us reach more authentic messages from within.
