The witch wound did not start with you.

In Part 1 of this powerful masterclass, I explore the historical roots of the witch wound and how centuries of persecution, patriarchal conditioning, and ancestral trauma continue to shape women today.

We talk about:
• The European witch trials and the burning times
• Epigenetics and inherited trauma
• Self-silencing and fear of visibility
• Imposter syndrome
• Disconnection from body and intuition
• The sister wound and internalized patriarchy
• Why reclaiming your voice matters now

If you’ve ever felt afraid to be seen, hesitant to speak your truth, or disconnected from your intuition, this episode will land deeply.

Part 2 will guide you into healing and embodiment.

💫 If this resonates, follow the podcast and share this episode with a woman who is ready to remember who she is.

What does it really mean to call yourself a witch in 2025?

In this deeply honest and expansive conversation, I’m joined by Maritza Schafer, founder of Bruja School and teacher of the Liberation Magic Method. Together, we explore reclaiming spiritual power, healing the witch wound, dismantling spiritual individualism, and why embodied, community-rooted witchcraft matters now more than ever.

We talk about ancestral wisdom, spiritual connection beyond religion, manifesting in a broken system, and the courage it takes to say, “Yes, I’m a witch.”

Maritza Schäfer is the founder of Bruja School, where she teaches the Liberation Magic Method. Her teachings center around a simple premise: the secret to life (and everything you truly want) is spiritual connection, free from religious trauma and new age b.s. Grounded in her Indigenous Chilean and Mediterranean lineage, Maritza blends ancestral wisdom with practical coaching. She equips people with powerful spiritual tools and real magic to create meaningful lives and bring transformation to their communities.

If you’ve ever felt the tension between mysticism and practicality… between capitalism and community… between hiding and fully owning your magic… this episode is for you.

✨ In this episode we explore:

-What it truly means to be a witch today

-The difference between spirituality and religion

-Liberation Magic and embodied power

-Manifestation without spiritual bypassing

-Why community is essential for healing

-Reclaiming ancestral wisdom

-Navigating visibility and the “broom closet”

-The collapse of old systems and spiritual leadership

What happens when our words are no longer our own?

In this solo episode, Eileen explores the growing presence of AI in our creative and spiritual spaces, and how it intersects with the witch wound, the ancestral fear of being seen, heard, and cast out for speaking truth.

This is a raw, reflective conversation about voice, power, creativity, exhaustion, and what it means to stay human in a world obsessed with optimization. Not a manifesto. Not a hot take. An invitation to wonder.

Eileen also shares details about her upcoming free Witch Wound Masterclass on February 18th, where she will guide participants through understanding and healing this ancient wound.

Your voice matters. Your humanity matters.

Imbolc is often framed as the start of spring—but what if it’s actually a pause? A threshold. A moment of becoming.

In this solo episode, Eileen explores Winterspring—the liminal space where winter softens and light begins its slow return. Drawing on Celtic mythology, folk wisdom, Brigid, the Cailleach, and the Wheel of the Year, this episode invites you to release urgency and honour what is quietly stirring beneath the surface.

This is a conversation about slowness, initiation, ancestral memory, and learning to trust the seasons—within the land and within yourself.

✨ You don’t need to begin yet. You’re not behind. You’re exactly where you’re meant to be.

What if beginnings weren’t meant to be rushed?

In this solo episode, Eileen explores why January isn’t a true beginning, how urgency disconnects us from our bodies, and why meaningful change requires nervous system safety and embodied presence.

This is a conversation about sacred starts, ritual over routine, cyclical time, and learning to begin from where you actually are — not from pressure, productivity, or expectation.

Perfect for anyone feeling weary of “new year” energy and longing for a gentler, wiser way forward.

✨ A grounded reminder that you don’t need to leap — you only need to arrive.

January 1st is often framed as a fresh start—but energetically, it rarely feels that way.

In this reflective throwback episode of the Woo Curious Podcast, Eileen March and former co-host Ellie McMillan explore why the Gregorian New Year can feel rushed, anxious, and misaligned—and what happens when we reconnect with cyclical, seasonal wisdom instead.

This conversation weaves together:
• The Wheel of the Year
• Intentions vs. resolutions
• Word of the Year practices
• Nervous system–aware goal setting
• Ritual as support, not pressure

This episode is an invitation to slow down, honour where you actually are, and begin again in a way that feels true.
