The conversations are raw, real deep dives into our creative magic, to inspire, encourage and nourish you The first season of is the Wild Initiation series, featuring my immensely popular intimate conversation series recorded to celebrate the launch of my new book Crow Moon...

| 28 May 2024 | 10: Cali White - Creating Experiential Spaces | 01:01:31 | |
Twenty years ago, Cali White left a corporate career and followed a calling to the healing path. Initially training in psychotherapy, she spent many years immersing herself in the world of psychological and spiritual development and was privileged to find teachers that opened her up to Native American wisdom through Vision Questing, Sweat Lodges, and Shamanic Healing, and then more deeply into rites of passage work through the Women in Power organisation. From November 2018 she undertook a 13 Moon menopause Pilgrimage around the UK and Ireland to deepen into her indigenous ancestry. Guided by the Ancients, she gathered women every full moon to hold ceremony for those persecuted as witches during the Burning Times and to help heal the inherited trauma wounds of separation that we still carry today. This led to the 2022 I AM WITCH exhibition in Lancaster, out of which The Witches' Revival was born, a now annual healing event in Lancaster, UK, designed to support the healing of the feminine through the reclamation of the Witch Archetype.
Cali lives in an old Beatrix Potter cottage on a hillside in the Lake District where she continues to learn through tending the land and by following her menopausal impulse to "create"!

| 11 Jun 2024 | 12: Rima Staines - The Deeper You Go The Wider The World Opens To You | 01:12:23 | |
Rima Staines is an artist whose work straddles myth, magical realism and the folk arts. Her visual world is an umber and madder-infused chapel of misfits and magicians, story-rich and alchemical. Her paintings, which feel both ancient and familiar at once, have been exhibited and published internationally. In 2018 she was a finalist in the 'Best Artist' category of the World Fantasy awards. Rima has a long-held fascination with the idea of the liminal - that which lies at the edge of culture and society as well as the literal boundaries between one place and another, both metaphorical and real - and with the power of art that comes from that place. Her work is a kind of “Iconography of the Otherworld”. She lives in the south of England.

Clare Jasmine Beloved is an artist based in Liverpool, UK. She says:
“Creating is in my blood and has saved my life over and over – transforming feelings, emotions, life stories, wounds and blocks, dreams and ideas into beauty. My art is awash with large lush goddesses, magic mermaids, sensual sistas, and sacred imagery, symbolism and feelings.The process and the way that I paint and create is very intuitive. I work with many layers to explore my own mythology, using acrylics and mixed media.
My work is also translated into limited edition textile ranges in silks and velvet as well as a beautiful jewellery range.
I am passionate about words – my bed is always laden with books! My first poetry collection Love, Hope and High Heels was published in 2010. It was shortlisted for The Polari Book Prize for new gay and lesbian writing. I have since published poetry and art books and journals and am currently finishing a book about my love story with my late wife and navigating life after her death. Pre-order Somewhere Between Derelict and Divine: Magical Stories to Carry Us All Home…
I developed and curated a large-scale project based on my own way of creating with over 1000 women and girls, which was exhibited at The Tate in a ground-breaking exhibition. This was then taken into many settings and also developed into Big Love Sista, Big Love My Brother.
I am dedicated to creating a body of work in the world and spaces that are ethical, inclusive, diverse, real and down to earth and magical and deeply rooted in community.”
We talked about: Facilitating creativity in a range of different settings Creating safe and inclusive creative spaces Overcoming a legacy of creative repression Coming into her own creative power Art as therapeutic and alchemical On becoming an accidental wild woman The power of sharing our stories Magic and imagination as a way to survive childhood Seeing the magic in your own story The magic of the sea - selkies and mermaids Creating from and through grief
