Cozy Hermit Coven

Hosted by Cindy Norton Stokes, the Cozy Hermit Coven is a comforting, introspective, and witchy place nestled in a bright and inviting forest cottage. Here we gather around the hearth to talk about all things cozy and mystical. Here you are invited to slow down and learn more about yourself, so that you can begin to connect with your intuition and the longings of your soul. And we can’t get to that cozy space without standing up to oppression along the way, so you can rest assured that the Cozy Hermit Coven is built on a foundation of collective liberation. So grab your cup of tea and settle in. Welcome to the Cozy Hermit Coven.

*Special Note: From January 2021 - September 2023 this was the Mountain Practice Journeys podcast - a comfy, cozy place for introverted & highly sensitive solopreneurs. In October 2023 the Mountain Practice Journeys podcast was rebranded to the Cozy Hermit Coven podcast in order to keep all the wonderful interviews from past guests, as well as helpful information for therapists starting and growing their private practices.
