The Ghost Tea podcast is an incredibly grounding and informative show that delves into various spiritual topics. Hosted by Ariel, the podcast creates a calming atmosphere that feels like having tea with a master. Ariel's teaching aura is strong, making her a grounded and helpful presence in the spiritual community. The future episodes are highly anticipated, as they offer valuable insights and help listeners on their own spiritual paths.
One of the best aspects of The Ghost Tea podcast is its ability to educate and provoke thought. Listeners can learn so much from Ariel's experiences and stories, especially for those who are just starting their spiritual journey. Her storytelling is exciting and engaging, leaving listeners wanting to hear more. The episodes provide valuable knowledge while also being digestible in an easily understandable format.
However, one criticism of the podcast is its low volume, which makes it difficult to listen to at times.

With each episode, listeners gain new insights and connect with Ariel's connection to the spirit realm.
