Hey there, magical souls!

It’s been a hot minute, hasn’t it? I know some of you have noticed my disappearance from the blog and YouTube scene since the spring. It’s only now, in November, that I’ve dusted off my cauldron and jumped back into the groove of things. Let me fill you in on the misadventures that led to my little hiatus – and why I’m back with more zest than a lemon at a sorcery convention.

Excuse numero uno: Imposter Syndrome.

Ah, the classic tale of putting yourself out there and suddenly wondering if you’re just a muggle pretending to be a wizard. I started questioning myself like a magician with too many rabbits in the hat. Should I be sharing my magical secrets with the world? Am I enchanting enough for this gig? Do people even care about my mystical musings?

After a much-needed introspection, I realized that the real magic happens when I embrace my quirks and share what sparks joy in my cauldron. Turns out, I don’t need a crystal ball to know that creating for myself is the real potion for happiness. I’m on a journey to recover from people-pleasing, and it turns out the best spell is being true to myself. Who knew?

Excuse number two: I was working three jobs.

Yup, just like a magical creature juggling more wands than a Hogwarts professor. Living wages are as rare as a phoenix feather, and adulting means bills, bills, and more bills. YouTube, my non-paying enchantress of a hobby, had to take a back seat while I adulted my way through three jobs this summer. On the bright side, I now know more about plants and people than a herbology professor at a garden party. (Comment below if you want to hear more about my adventures in the world of chlorophyll and chit-chat!)

Excuse number three: I’ve been surviving and searching for my happy place.

Life is like a quidditch match right now – fast-paced, a bit chaotic, and sometimes, you’re just trying not to get knocked off your broom. But fear not! I’ve found solace in cheap and cheerful activities like blogging, writing, and brewing up content for my YouTube channel. It’s my happy place amidst the craziness of the magical world we live in.

Now, what’s the plan moving forward, you ask?

Well, grab your broomsticks because we’re diving into the enchanted abyss together! I’ll be posting more often, focusing on sharing my personal magical journey. Forget the basics; we’re taking a detour into the mystical realm of creativity.

Saturdays are now Short Story Saturdays, where I’ll spin tales from the world of the book series I’m brewing up, all centered around Witchy Holidays.

Wednesdays will be Witch Tea Wednesdays, a delightful blend of talking videos, DIY spells, and a sprinkle of my eclectic witchcraft. Get ready to know more about me and enhance your own witchy practices!

And, of course, there will be sporadic appearances for book announcements, updates, or maybe a Q&A – because magic doesn’t always follow a schedule. Life is unpredictable, just like the outcome of mixing potions without a recipe.

So, buckle up, my magical companions! I’m here to be more present, transparent, and share the mystical madness that is my life. Who knows what the future holds, but I promise it’ll be a wild ride on this enchanted broomstick!

Until next time, stay magical and remember: life is crazy, but magic makes it a tad more interesting! 🧙‍♀️🌈✨
