172: We Quit Witchcraft

What happens when two very busy witches slowly stop doing witchcraft?

In this episode, Laylla and Chelle talk about the years when their practice went from sabbats, esbats, workshops, classes, coven-building, and constant community work to almost nothing. Not because they stopped believing. Not because the magick disappeared. But because life got loud, responsibilities shifted, and the practice that once felt alive and nourishing became harder and harder to hold.

They share what it felt like to step away from an active witchcraft practice, the guilt and weirdness of realizing they had let so much of it go, and the quiet ways the witchy thread was still there, waiting under the ashes. Then they talk about what finally helped them return: small rituals, honest conversations, nature, tarot, community, and remembering that witchcraft does not have to look the way it used to in order to be real.

This is an episode for anyone who has ever felt like a bad witch, a tired witch, a disconnected witch, or a witch who left their broomstick in the corner for a few years and forgot where they parked it. The path is still there. Sometimes you just come back to it with more life behind you, better boundaries, and a lot less interest in doing witchcraft as a full-time unpaid job.
