Witchcraft(ing)

Self-taught witch and founder of Lady Moon Co. Inc. Laura Wong (she/her) joins Phoebe Sherman for Girl Gang Craft Pod's first interview ep of the year.

Laura Wong considers herself a creatrix - uniquely connected to her inner feminine source of creative power.

The founder of Lady Moon Co., Inc., Wong has curated an online space that's part podcast and part online shop, where she sells all sorts of incredible goods for those who embrace the practice of witchcraft. Her award-winning Podcast, Third Eye Bind, focuses on disrupting the boundaries of spirituality - and self identifies as a "digital altar to the spirit of the trickster."

In this episode, Laura and Phoebe share a compelling conversation that starts with how the crafting world brought them together (it all started with a pin trade) and get into the nitty-gritty of entrepreneurship in the creator world, like supply chain challenges, working with wholesalers, finding the right balance of marketing strategies, and more.

Quotes:

"Witchcraft goes great with being a creative because witchcraft, to me, is all about knowing your power, and knowing that it comes from inside of you. And that it can be a little bit lonely, you know. Historically, all of it is a little isolating. But I think there's a reason for that, and it's been really interesting seeing the communities that have formed from social media, and how it's affected witches today." -Laura

"Where do we get these ideas - and like, how do we take these things on that make us feel shame or guilt? Or like, not enough? for all of these things. A lot of our community, they want to make everything. They don't feel like it's their product if their hands aren't making it. And we're not going to be able to grow that way. You can only make so many things - you're not going to be able to scale. That's where entrepreneurship comes in." -Phoebe
