Building My Own Altar: A Journey of Spirituality

In this episode, Sunshine Witchski shares her personal journey of spiritual discovery, beginning with a pivotal moment in her childhood when she was denied the opportunity to serve as an altar girl in a Catholic church.

Through her exploration of witchcraft and spirituality, she built her own altar, creating a space not only for herself but for others who have felt marginalized or excluded.
