The Wild Goddess
There is a gap in the hawthorn hedge, just wide enough for someone who knows how to look properly.
On the other side is Mossvale, an enchanted world where fairy folk move through the Storywood at dusk, where banshees keen across the Wild Moors and ancient oaks hold centuries of memory, where the wheel of the year is marked with fire and blossom and long tables pulled into the square before anyone has properly woken up.
The Wild Goddess Podcast is where that world lives.
Each episode is an invitation into the older, quieter, more enchanted version of things, through original fairylore stories, Celtic mythology, seasonal folklore, and the kind of storytelling that settles something in you you didn't know was unsettled. The fairy tales here aren't sanitised. The magic isn't neat. It arrives the way it always has - sideways, through the window you left open, smelling of woodsmoke and something you can't quite name.
This is a podcast for anyone who has ever felt the pull of an old forest. Who leaves offerings for things they can't see. Who marks Beltane and Samhain and the slow turning of the year. Who has always suspected the world is far more enchanted than it lets on.
Come find the gap in the hedge.
Welcome to Mossvale.

EP 35 - Folklore Friday | The Story of Mis, the original Wild Woman.
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Welcome to the very first Folklore Friday episode — a soul-deep journey into ancient mythology and the wisdom it holds for our modern lives.
In this episode, I share all about the haunting and powerful story of Mis of Munster, a woman whose grief was so immense it turned her feral, wild, and free. Taken from If Women Rose Rooted by Sharon Blackie, this tale is a sacred mirror for the rage, grief, and primal emotion so many women are taught to bury.
We explore:
- The symbolism of wild feminine rage and sacred madness
- How nature becomes the only medicine when the world fails to hold us
- The balance between wild and tamed, feminine and masculine
- What Mis teaches us about breaking down to break free
- Why the wild woman archetype lives within every woman — and why now is the time to awaken her
This episode is an invocation — an invitation to reclaim the parts of yourself that feel too much, too messy, too emotional. Mis is the original Wild Woman, and her story reminds us that sometimes, we must run into the forest to find ourselves again.
This is for the women who have screamed into pillows, cried in the dark, or felt like the only place they could truly be was barefoot in the woods.
Let Mis lead you home to yourself.
