The world is a rough and scary place right now. Maybe you feel like you want to do something to make a difference, but you don't have the time, connections, financial resources, or spoons to step up. We get it.
Today, Aradia and Liz want to talk about ways you can put your witchcraft where your mouth is to help support causes you care about.
Content warning: We're talking social injustice, humanitarian rights, reproductive rights, the war in Ukraine, LGBTQIA+ rights, and more. If these topics are heavy for you, make sure you're in a safe space and a solid emotional mindset before digging in. Self care first and foremost.
