In this episode, I am joined by Polish folk practitioner, witch, and psychologist Joanna Tarnawska, whose upcoming book Polish Folk Magic (out this December) dives deep into the traditions of her homeland. Together, we explore Poland’s sacred mountains, springs, and land spirits, weaving together history, resilience, and the lessons the land is always whispering to those who listen.

From centuries-old pilgrimages and gnome-filled cities to the echoes of WWII and cultural survival, Joanna shares how her land-based practices are rooted in tradition rather than reinvention. I reflect on my own recent trip to Poland, bringing fresh eyes to what locals often take for granted, and the conversation opens a window into what younger cultures, like the United States, can learn from the deep roots of Polish history.

The land is begging us to learn the lessons. It’s speaking all the time. It has all the lessons in the world.”
