The year 2024 is about to blow out of here, like the last of the fall leaves in a gust of icy wind. Join me for one last walk in the Tuscan hills before we say goodbye to this year--but this time, we're not in the hills above where I live. We're somewhere completely new and different!

As a child, I believed 100 percent that mermaids roamed the oceans, unicorns thundered through the forests and fairies hid behind trees just a second before we saw them. Thankfully, adulthood never convinced me to leave behind the belief that if I looked at things just so, something magical might happen. Throughout years of transforming and adapting to new workplaces, living spaces, roommates and cultures, two elements intertwined through it all: magic and writing. Writing has always been my way of ruminating on and making sense of everything; magic is what connects me to something deeper and more mysterious. Something that could be scary, or just miraculous.The same number would appear everywhere, and then finally it would be the address of my new apartment. A name would come to me in a dream, and months later that person would be the one who would help me with my never-ending work permit problems in Italy. I would ask the universe for a collaborator and I would find her in a conversation on Instagram.This magical collaborator is Catarina Esteves. As I am, she is a witch, healer and expat who traded her native Portugal for England. If you're a regular listener, you may recognize Catarina's name or voice, as I interviewed her in episode 39 about her journey from the corporate world to teaching yoga and being a witch. If you haven't tuned in already, be prepared to be inspired!This time, I'm joining Catarina for an intimate conversation about our expat experiences. We'll talk about the dreams that prompted us to move abroad, the challenges we faced and the reality checks that shook our foundations. Join us for the last interview of 2024, a window into our respective--and dare I say magical--journeys of transformation.⟢Connect With Sylva:Instagram:@sylva_florence@magicmedicineandmayhemWebsite:Transform with me: https://sylvaflorence.com/Get more Magic: https://magicmedicineandmayhem.com/---⟢ Connect with Catarina:InstagramTikTok⟢ Heal with me:https://bio.site/catarinaesteves.co⟢ Learn more about my witchy community:https://pages.thecoven.community/the-coven-community⟢ Get a FREE month off The Cauldron with the code LGO https://pages.thecoven.community/the-cauldronANNOUNCEMENTS:Join me this December for two online writing experiences designed to help you see life in a fresh, new way. 1.

No man is an island. No witch, either. And that's what my guest today--fellow witch, yoga teacher and MUCH more--Caterina Esteves, are here to talk about. Well, not only--we'll touch on what it means to be truly authentic, the self-sabotaging behaviors that keep us from that end, what blocked Catarina for so long, and how she both overcame crippling anxiety and societal pressures.Whether you are on your own journey of self-discovery and actualization, if you're wondering how to start it, or if you've gotten stuck along the way, this one's for you! Listening to Catarina's tales of switching careers, swapping countries and stepping into own her power as a woman and a witch, you'll no doubt be inspired to walk your own path towards authenticity.We'll also talk about dismantling our limiting beliefs, re-remembering our original soul agreements and and forming community--as Catarina and I have. Keep an open mind in regards to how it all could happen... After all, our rich and delightful collaboration sprang from a magical conversation on Instagram!This convo is, therefore, also a blessed reminder that magic is everywhere, even if modernity says otherwise. Catarina and I are here to remind you that not only is the world more enchanting than you've been taught to believe, but so are you!You can find Caterina on Instagram at @thecoven.community and @catarinaesteves.co and find more about her services here.Keep updated on future writing events and episodes by signing up for the free Crescent Newsletter--and receive a welcome gift!ANNOUNCEMENTS:Join me in December for brand new writing groups, including Transformative Writing and much more!

November is kind of a sad month, isn't it? Yet--even as the days shorten and the temperatures drop--it doesn't have to be so melancholy. For ancient Celtic people and the Ireland of yore, the month of November is the start of the Celtic new year, which began on October 31st. The Celts called it Samhain (pronounced Sah-win). The Celtic day also began at sundown instead of at sunrise. So, Samhain commenced at twilight on October 31st. Picture it in your mind: as the last sun of the year slipped beneath the horizon, the old year was seen to die. At the same time, out of the darkness, a new year was born. Celts celebrated with feasting, dancing, fortune telling and divination by reading apple skins and hazelnuts (representing wisdom in Celtic culture). And of course, fires. Large bonfires sprung up everywhere only to be doused at midnight, plunging the Celtic world into darkness. The fires were then re-lit from a great ceremonial bonfire at Tlaghtgha in County Meath. The High King's fire at Tara was lit first and then, in a sort of domino effect, the blazes moved out across the country until every hearth glowed anew. These fires were lit for warmth and to ward off the evil spirits residing in the darkness. Perhaps they were also a beacon of hope in the pre-electricity darkness and a symbol of the eventual return of the light. Let's focus on this last bit. As we are plunged into the darkness of winter, we are also that much closer to spring. Out in nature, as you walk with me in Tuscany, the leaves are falling, the frost has arrived, and nature is preparing itself for the inevitable. For Celts, November's full moon was the Seed Fall Moon, honoring the moment in which seeds drifted from dying plants to the humid ground. The moment in which the earth received them and embraced them, keeping them safe until spring. So as you walk in nature with me today, take time to reflect on what should lie sallow, and what should burst forth with new life come spring.

The day of the election was a week ago now, but the repercussions will be felt for some time. As Trump's supporters continue to celebrate, those of us that were hoping for a fresh new take on America that would have included a colored woman president grieve and wonder how to move forward. Speaking with others who voted for Kamala, I sense the despair, the angst, the "What now??" If we were shocked and perplexed the first time, this time we are even more so. It's easy to sink into despair, or even to just give up. I don't blame you if you're thinking, what's the point?Yet, I would also implore you not to give up, for it really is always darkest before the dawn. Your light and kindness is more needed than ever in these turbulent times--and I've got a few ideas on what we CAN do. What YOU can do, each and every day.Join me for the latest episode, where we'll dive into an ancient grieving practice called "telling the bees." From the Celtic roots of this tradition and its particularities to my own personal message to the bees themselves, this episode is all about not giving into despair in turbulent times. Instead, we touch on how you can stand up for goodness in the big and little acts of daily life to sow seeds of positive change.Take part in a necessary conversation on how to start your own personal revolution of peace and compassion. We'll also hear a poignant and utterly timely message on this exact topic written by Vietnamese peace activist and prolific author Thich Nhat Hanh back in 2012.ANNOUNCEMENTS:Join me on Friday, November 22nd for Transformative WritingOnline (Google Meet) from 7 to 8,15 p.m. CETThis online experience is for you if:

The best predictor of a relationship is their embodied skills of communicating. Communication can make or break every relationship and especially in our marriages. Unfortunately, we live in a world that teaches us to communicate from our ego. This means letting this childhood part lead the conversation and bring judgement, blame, and criticism forward instead of your heartfelt need and desire. In today's episode, we examine the roadblocks of ego-driven dialogue and how it hinders the bonds we strive to build. If you've ever felt misunderstood or struggled to articulate your deepest feelings, I see you. I experienced so many ruptures in relationships, including both romantic and in friendships. For most of my life, I thought 'speaking my truth' meant that I became very articulate at telling the other person what they did wrong. Everytime I made it about the other person, I was meant with defensiveness or stonewalling. I never actually got what I wanted. This style of communicating to protect instead of to connect! Tune in as we dive deeper. ANNOUNCEMENTS:Join us for an engaging FREE workshop where we examine the opposite style of communication. I am going to teach three essential skills for Heart Led Communication. You will walk away knowing how to communicate in a way that deepens connection even during conflict!Register here!This month's virtual breathwork journey is all about Opening Back to Love.
