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

  1. 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."
  2. 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."
  3. Both Paul and Lindy admit to struggling with people generally, despite doing work built around connecting with them.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. Her closing observation: people almost never seek a reading when things are actually going well in their life.
