## Resource

In this episode, Sunshine Witchski explores the deep need for dedicated sober spaces within the witchcraft and spiritual community. She reflects on how alcohol is often normalized—even intertwined—with spiritual gatherings, leaving those in recovery feeling isolated or unseen. Drawing from personal experience and conversations within her coven, she highlights the powerful difference between being supported in sobriety and being truly understood by others walking the same path. The episode introduces her vision for sober witch events, including an ongoing virtual recovery community, playful and healing in-person gatherings like Sober Witch Camp, and immersive retreats in spiritually rich locations like New Orleans. These spaces are intentionally substance-free, designed to foster safety, connection, joy, and authentic self-expression. Ultimately, Sunshine emphasizes that witches in recovery deserve not only support—but celebration, belonging, and magical experiences without compromise.
