Group Dynamics — The Heal and Harm Show with Sabrina Scott

Lone Wolf Energy and Surviving Community Toxicity | The Heal and Harm Show with Sabrina Scott episode 5 with Theresa Reed The Tarot Lady

In this enlivening and enlightening conversaton with prolific author and tarot reader Theresa Reed, otherwise known as The Tarot Lady, we discuss interpersonal group dynamics, what happens when we try to find community (in tarot or spirituality, yoga, whatever) in dysfunctional and unhealed spaces when we ourselves are not healed or grounded.

We also discuss being lone wolves, in both life in general, in spiritual community, and in online business. Theresa shares about one of her life values, the importance of minding our own business, focusing on our own path and creative output. Theresa also shares about why she stopped reading tarot for the public, how drama is distracting from writing and creative output, and her rules for online engagement and career longevity.

We also discuss some toxic habits in tarot clients, as well as when tarot readers should refuse clients (and why)!

You won't want to miss this fun conversation!

Artistic Creation, Ego Death, and Returning to Community | The Heal and Harm Show with Sabrina Scott episode 3 with Tarot Deck Creator Marisa de la Pena

In this episode of The Heal and Harm Show, I chat with amazing human and oracle and tarot deck creator Marisa de la Pena about her decks, why she took steps away from the spiritual, witchy, and tarot space, and what's inspired her to come back into the community after a few years away.

Marisa is the creator of Circo Tarot and the Persephone Tarot, and the How to Deal Tarot aquired by Harper Collins/Urban Outfitters.

We have a great conversation about Marisa's journey to tarot and magic, creating art as a way to work through pain and grief, moving away from ego, (and checking ourselves before e wreck ourselves), and the importance of moving back into the nitty gritty of spiritual work, and focusing on doing magic for/on ourselves.

We also talk about how punitive and policing aspects of the spiritual community have become, how to escape it, and how to re-enter community with what's truly important in mind. We talk about academia, the importance of using technology intelligently, and the vitality of becoming familiar with witchy/spiritual elders.

Weaponized Astrology and How Aggrandizement is Not Empowerment | The Heal and Harm Show with Sabrina Scott episode 2 with Sara Ashley The Sensible Astrologer

Hello and welcome to the second episode of The Heal and Harm Show with Sabrina Scott! On this episode I speak with Sara Ashley Astrology.

We discuss the astrology community right now, including the exteme aspects of it (including both the far left and far right of astrology land), starseeds and blood types (and weirdness of physical superiority in woo woo land), and spiritual community and outrage politics/division on various social media platforms.

We also discuss differences between being a professional and being a hobbyist in the spiritual realms (whether tarot or astrology), how to be a good spiritual service provider and a good client, problems with addicted clients, the disturbing prevalence of spiritual psychosis and mental illness, and more.

Definitely a fun listen - let us know what you think! ‪

Ceremonial Magic, Political Division, and Shadow Work | The Heal and Harm Show with Sabrina Scott episode 1 with Nick from The Occult Rejects

On this FIRST EVER (!) episode of The Heal and Harm Show, I talk with Nick from the super popular Occult Rejects podcast and YouTube.

We discuss Nick's experience in the OTO (the good, the bad, and why he left), how he got into occultism, what inspired him to start The Occult Rejects, what he's learned along the way, as well as his big beefs with the occult community and advice for anyone seeking self improvement through occultism and magic.

I hope this will be a very interesting listen for my audience, especially since many of y'all are more familiar with witchy forms of magic, rather than ceremonial magic! ‪
