Today I talk to Brooke Herr, a practicing witch and tattooer whose work centers the power and the potential of ritual. They are genderqueer, a gemini (sun), and live with their cat Luce. Brooke is on Instagram @behsticks. They can be reached at www.brookeherr.com as well.

Brooke’s influences:
Good Night Moon
Beverly Glenn-Copeland (song: La Vita)
Jane Martin (author)

From Brooke:
Lou Elda, the practitioner who helped me realize I needed to go to Sicily, can be found at www.louelda.com ~ they offer a number of services and art there, including the spiritual practice that I mention in the podcast.

I'd also love to credit Kamryn Wolf, who is does a form of gender counseling and is currently working with me. They can be found at www.genderdoula.com

As well as my clients, friends, community, and family members - who I have to thank for everything I come to know, relocate, or uncover. Learning is relational. Your insight, care, and willingness to share yourselves, is what makes meaning in this whole weird life. I love you and I'm so grateful for you.
