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 006: Claire Barron-Sluga a Conversation on Being Seen, Heard, and Valued
In this warm, wise, and deeply affirming episode, Lee sits down with facilitator and community-builder Claire Barron-Sluga for a conversation about connection, aging, and the value of being seen. From the fatigue of Zoom life to the gentle rebellion of choosing presence over productivity, Claire offers a clear and courageous call to remember our worth — and to see it in others. This is a conversation about self-deprecation and social diversity, kindness and courage, and the quiet power of showing up anyway.
Key Topics Covered:
- Invisibility vs. irrelevance
- Social connection across difference
- Technology fatigue and Zoom culture
- Community-building in rural life
- The relief of releasing societal expectations
- The metaphor of the “inner archeologist”
- Support groups and safe vulnerability
