Exploring the Divine: Witchcraft, Theology, and the Power of Spiritual Leadership with Beth Barling

Have you ever felt drawn to the divine in a way that didn’t fit neatly inside the tradition you grew up with?

In this episode, I sit down with Beth Barling, Wiccan elder, high priestess, theologian, and co-creatrix of The Serpent and The Dove, for a rich conversation about witchcraft, divinity, theology and what it truly means to hold spiritual leadership.

Beth has a rare gift: she bridges deep scholarly understanding with lived, embodied spiritual experience. Together, we explore how Wicca became a safe and sovereign path for her, how studying theology opened the door to deeper connection and why responsible leadership matters so deeply in spiritual spaces.

This conversation is a reminder that your connection with the divine is allowed to evolve, deepen, and look different than you ever expected.
