A retired occupational therapist in California, Shelley started doing Instagram Live sessions in her purple witches hat during the pandemic to help others feel grounded. She'd spark up, read tarot cards for her followers, and give what she calls her 'old crone advice' about how to live a more intentional, self-directed life. Now in her 70s, Shelley has nearly 2 million followers on Instagram alone, and she reaches them with her witchy wisdom through her daily 4:20 pm smoke and tarot sessions.
Host Brit Smith talks to Shelley about how cannabis can help in therapeutic and spiritual ways, by allowing us to focus on meditation, think about our thoughts, manifest gratitude, and create art.
Shelley also discusses how she uses cannabis daily to connect with herself and others, and how we can all more consciously use the plant to access our deeper spiritual selves. She gives us a daily witch-tip for smokers, we learn what tarot is, and we get a stoned tarot reading just for listeners.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
