Mermaids, Witches, and Fairies with Mhara Starling
In this episode is Mhara Starling's truly amazing magical journey of gender and self-acceptance. Mhara is a Welsh witch, spiritual leader, and author of the recent book "Welsh Fairies." Mhara and I muse over topics as far afield as natural churches, bigger-than-life mentors, and a Scooby Doo lesson in witchcraft.
