The Death of Curiosity: The Key to Growth and Success in Life is in Decline | The Secrets of a Witch Podcast with Sabrina Scott episode 205

In this episode I discuss one of the most important qualities in successful, happy, and growth oriented people: curiosity! I’ve noticed that in the past decade or so, it’s been significantly on the decline. I also talk about the rise of abstracting people into symbols, rather than listening/observing to see who people actually are. It’s become normal to dehumanize people with a different perspective, and this concerns me due to its potential implications for the future of democracy and the future of human relationships. Are you open to the idea that there are things you don’t know? Are you open to the idea that you could be wrong? Are you able to step off your moralistic high ground and consider things logically, rather than simply in an emotionally activated way? A very in-depth and important episode for today’s current political climate, especially in Canada and the United States. Curiosity impacts all aspects of our lives in a positive, growthy way.

Your Politics Can Change: Be Open to Different Perspectives and Get Curious | The Secrets of a Witch Podcast with Sabrina Scott episode 89

Guess what! It’s election day in my home city of Toronto: Yes, we are electing a new mayor. In this episode I talk a bit about my own political journey over the last 10 years, how I turned from a leftist social justice warrior to a normal (Canadian) conservative, and why I think it’s important to read multiple books by people you assume you’re going to disagree with. Today’s North American political climate is very bizarre, full of thought police and cancel culture, and in this episode I outline what I hope we can all be and do for ourselves and each other instead: to move from curiosity and openness, and to be responsive to the current situation and present moment. Your politics may not be what you think they are, but you will never know that if you don’t give yourself permission to explore.

What To Do When You Outgrow Your Friends | The Secrets of a Witch Podcast with Sabrina Scott episode 13

Those long time friends not really the vibe anymore? Trust me, it happens - and I know how painful it can be to come to terms with outgrowing the people in our lives. In this episode I talk about some examples from my own life, what I did next, and why it was the right choice. Who we surround ourselves with - and who we let into our lives - really does matter. In this podcast episode I talk about why, and what to do when you feel unaligned with the folks around you.
