In this episode, we dig into what it means to be a witch in the age of social media, with Gabriela Herstik, a fashion blogger, writer and Millennial witch. Raised by a Mexican American mother and Jewish Rabbi father, Gabriela talks to us about her evolution from Judaism to Wicca and finally to her own version of being a witch. 

Gaby is big on the importance of shadow work in witchcraft and her own life and how the absence of shadow work in the wiccan religion ultimately determined her leaving the faith.

Hear about how she uses fashion as resistance and beauty as ritual, about how she believes the witch world needs to be more inclusionary of trans indivuduals and she explains how she uses sex magic to manifest!
