  <description><![CDATA[The World Needs A Witch is a podcast exploring the witch archetype as the original feminist, the environmentalist, the activist, the woman who knows her inner power and how to harness it. In this first season why witches have continued to be stigmatized as sluts or crones and what it actually means to be a witch in 2019. We interview witches of all types... from political witches putting binding spells on President Trump, to midwife witches teaching us how powerful women are when they are menstruating, Latinx Brujas in Brooklyn to millennial sex magic practitioners in Los Angeles. These are not your “Bubble Bubble Toil & Trouble” witch types, these are badass, powerful, intuitive women who have carved out a unique path in patriarchal society.]]></description>
