  • Spiritual Hygiene, Spell Work & Soul Magic! With Devyn Goss
    Jul 2 2026
    This week we’re joined by our resident witch and long-time Dazey, Devyn Goss, for a conversation that wanders through magic, motherhood and everything in between. We chat about her journey into pagan witchcraft, practicing in a coven, studying under baby medium Emily, and why she believes we’re all spiritual beings having a very human experience. As a special education teacher and mama who had her first (of six!) babies at just 20, Devyn shares how raising her autistic children transformed the way she sees intuition, connection and communication. We explore her belief that many neurodivergent children are deeply intuitive, what she calls “Prism Parenting”, and how staying open to our children’s unique ways of communicating can completely shift the way we parent. From tarot, astrology, deities and moon cycles to womb work, spiritual hygiene, manifestation scripting, energetic protection and even the surprisingly magical art of selling a house, no crystal is left unturned!! Whether you’re witch-curious, craving a Diana Bishop-style coven, or just here for a little peek behind the veil, this deep dive is for you. Whip out your cauldrons, folks… it’s officially witching hour!!

  • Transitions, Trust & Tarot!
    Jun 25 2026
    This week on The Mother Daze, we’re feeling all the things. With Wyatt graduating and our kids somehow growing up right before our eyes, we found ourselves reflecting on this wild season of life. From starting over after the fires to moving cities (and even countries), we chat about what it’s been like watching our kids navigate change, find their people, build friendships, and create a sense of home wherever they land. We talk about the very real parenting urge to swoop in and fix everything for our children, and the beautiful reminder that growth often lives on the other side of discomfort. Sarah chats about her mum’s notorious habit of always putting herself last and how it’s starting to catch up with her physically (and how many of us mothers are guilty of doing the exact same thing!) There’s some women’s circle circling, Teresa pulls some witchy cards for the Dazeys, and Sarah shares a few moments where her developing medical mediumship unexpectedly clocks in for work!!

  • Healthy with a Side of Happy! With Sabrina Rudin
    Jun 18 2026
    This week on The Mother Daze, we have a brilliant guest: Sabrina Rudin. Mama, restaurateur, cookbook author and multi-hyphenate do-er of very cool things. She’s chatting with us about the winding road that led her to a healthier, happier relationship with food, and the path she’s taken to share her recipes with the world through her book, “Healthy with a Side of Happy: 100 Plant Based Recipes To Feed Your Family” Sabrina shares how learning to listen to her body transformed the way she eats, cooks and lives. We chat about questioning the messages we’ve absorbed from the meat and dairy industries, dive into Eat Right for Your Blood Type, and explore why one size definitely doesn’t fit all when it comes to wellness. Tez, our A+ blood-type girly and our “natural-born vegetarian”, shares the highs, lows and mercury poisoning of her “Seagan” chapter. And we, as per the uje, take a sharp left turn down Shit Alley. Luckily for Sabrina, we don’t spend too long down the toilet-talk rabbit hole before getting right back to the important chat: her brilliant book and the life-uplevelling food philosophies she shares, like Making Every Snack a Meal. Think simple, nourishing light bites that take the overwhelm out of healthy eating and bring a little creativity and joy back into the kitchen. Intuition, wellness, motherhood, food freedom and poo stories! All the things we like around here.
