Shownotes
She owns a witchcraft shop, teaches practitioners, and stocks everything you'd need for a reading — but Lindy admits she just doesn't like giving them herself. Her late husband did tarot; she preferred tea leaves, but never connected to it the way he did. From there, the conversation turns personal — both Paul and Lindy confessing they struggle with people despite doing work that's entirely about connecting with them. Paul shares feeling physically drained after a string of live readings, and Lindy confirms it: stepping into someone else's energy field takes something out of you, especially somewhere unfamiliar. Her advice — bring something familiar, cleanse the space, cleanse yourself after. And her closing line lands hard: nobody ever books a reading when life is actually going well. Know thyself. Balance your energy.
Takeaways
- Despite owning the Witch Depot, Lindy says she's never enjoyed giving readings herself — her late husband did tarot, she preferred tea leaf readings, but neither ever felt like "hers."
- She sees her role as support for the practitioner, not the one performing the reading — "I want to be here for the people that are doing the things."
- Both Paul and Lindy admit to struggling with people generally, despite doing work built around connecting with them.
- Paul describes feeling physically drained after a string of live readings — Lindy confirms this as real energy depletion from entering other people's energy fields, especially in unfamiliar spaces.
- Her protection advice: bring familiar, grounding objects, cleanse the space you're working in, and cleanse yourself before and after with a bath or spray.
- Her closing observation: people almost never seek a reading when things are actually going well in their life.
