Full Episode Description
Step into a sacred remembering of the power we were taught to fear. In this transformative episode of The Radiant and Regulated Podcast, Alicia explores the archetype of the Witch — the wise woman, healer, and intuitive who was once revered, later feared, and now remembered.
Through storytelling, somatic wisdom, and soul-level reflection, we uncover how patriarchal systems, the witch hunts, and ancestral trauma shaped our collective fear of feminine power, and how that history still echoes through our bodies today as the witch wound.
Learn how to regulate your nervous system, reclaim your intuition, and embody your magic so you can rise rooted in your truth and radiant in your power.
If you’ve ever felt “too sensitive,” “too much,” or afraid to be seen, this episode is your invitation to remember: your power was never the problem, it was the plan. 🔥
