Holy Shift
Welcome to Holy Shift, where medicine meets mystery—and healing finally becomes whole.
Hosted by Taylor Sappington, a medical astrologer and herbalist blending 15 years of Western and Eastern practice, and Adrienne Irizarry, HWH, a reproductive rebel, cycle alchemist and East Asian medicine practitioner rewriting the story of women’s health, this podcast is a sanctuary for the witches in the broom closet, the healers in hiding, and the ones who walk between worlds but have been told it’s safer to stay silent.
We don’t buy into quick fixes or cookie-cutter care. We bring together the science of the body, the wisdom of the Earth, and the patterns written in the sky. We’re here to challenge the systems that left us unseen, to honor the ancient ways that still work, and to show you that the most powerful medicine is always rooted in who you are.
Each week, we’ll dive into raw, real conversations about healing, identity, and reclamation. From sage to SSRIs, acupuncture to astrology, herbal remedies to holy revelations—we hold space for it all. Because clinical isn’t enough.
This is your reminder, your permission, your initiation: the safest thing you can be is yourself.

Holy Shift, We’re Really Doing This
What if the way we’ve been taught to think about health, healing, and history is completely upside down?
Too often, we accept mainstream health and wellness trends at face value—without realizing how much nuance, history, and individuality gets lost in the process. If you’ve ever felt frustrated with one-size-fits-all solutions or sensed there’s more to healing than what the wellness industry sells, this episode is for you.
In this inaugural episode of Holy Shift, Adrienne and Taylor peel back the layers on healing, spirituality, and the stories we’ve inherited. From the persecution of so-called “witches” to the artistry embedded in science, they open the door to deeper conversations about alternative medicine, herbalism, and holistic practices.
BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:
- Why history matters when we talk about healing and wellness today
- The surprising overlap between art, science, and spirituality in medicine
- How to spot the pitfalls of modern wellness trends that promise quick fixes
- Why individualized care is at the heart of true holistic healing
This episode sets the stage for the journey ahead—one that invites you to question, unlearn, and reimagine the way we approach healing, health, and spirituality.
