EP 381: You're Not Anxious, You're A Good Witch with Lucianne Tonti

In this episode, Georgie sits down with journalist and author Lucianne Tonti to talk about her book Good Witch - and the uncomfortable, illuminating history of the witch hunts that swept Europe and America, killing tens of thousands of women. They talk about what female authority and community leadership actually looked like before the trials, how the persecution of "witches" severed women from nature, food, medicine and each other - and why that disconnection still echoes in how capable, high-achieving women feel today. Feeling at maximum capacity, overfunctioning, afraid to slow down or take up space. Lucianne and Georgie explore what it means to reclaim the practices that were once dismissed as "women's work," and what it looks like to come back home to yourself in a world that still asks women to be smaller. The witch hunts erased female authority for centuries How ancient "women's work" is quietly making a comeback Why viral "witch" content reveals something deeper about burnout Reclaiming lost feminine power as a daily practice Where to find Lucianne: Substack: https://luciannetonti.substack.com Instagram: @luciannetonti Get her book in independent bookstores near you or order online through readings.com.au. --- For all my resources & updates: https://georgiecollinson.com/
