It's been about ten months since I've uploaded, so let's talk! I reflect a little on life, the direction of the podcast, and what's been going on with me. I missed everyone!

This episode was such a treat! Joining the Raindrop Corner Podcast this week is practitioner, pole dancer, and photographer, Olivia Graves. Also known as The Witch of Wonderlust, Olivia gave us a deep dive into something that few spiritualist's focus on- boundary setting for witches and the spiritually inclined. We fawn over the art of pole dancing and examine what working with Death truly looks like.
