Crone Rising with Lee Currie
You already know that midlife isn’t the beginning of the end - it’s the start of something powerful. Crone Rising is hosted by Lee Currie, a storyteller, writer, and neopagan witch, bringing you weekly deep dives into the wisdom, magic, and unapologetic truth of life beyond the maiden and mother years, through conversations with guest Crones. Each 15-minute(ish) episode will start with the same question: “How do you maintain your relevance in a society that wants you to be invisible?” with the life experience of each guest informing their answer. If you’re a spiritual seeker, a rebellious soul, or a woman embracing her divine feminine power in midlife and beyond, hit subscribe and join the conversation on aging, transformation, and the mystical path of the Crone.

EPISODE 005: Living Permission Slips (What I Learned from Robin, Catherine, and Mary Elizabeth)
This week’s Crone Rising episode is a solo reflection — a conversation between you and me, rooted in what I learned from three powerful women: Robin Blackburn, Catherine Taylor, and Mary Elizabeth Babcock.
Each of them gave me something I didn’t expect:
A permission slip.
To dance in the chaos.
To stop waging war on my body.
To choose truth over pleasing.
And now I’m offering one to you.
Because we’re not done becoming.
We’re just getting warmed up.
Key Topics Covered:
- Becoming as a lifelong practice
- Joy, sovereignty, and service as acts of resistance
- Crone wisdom as integration, not conclusion
- The sacredness of asking “what feels true now?”
- Women as living permission slips for one another
- Healing through honest storytelling
After you listen to the podcast, answer this: What permission slip do you need right now? Write it. Speak it. Share it. You don’t need to wait for someone to hand it to you — but if it helps, borrow mine.
