Hoodoo with Yvette The MotownWitch

This Podcast Serves Divine Feminine Soulfood! In this episode of Center Her Power, we look at witchcraft from a Black woman's perspective.  There are many ways for women to connect to their spiritual selves thereby marrying body and spirit so that they live In The Center Of Her Power.  For some Black women, working with herbs and intention (witchcraft) was a way of life passed down from grandmothers.  Witchcraft has been depicted most prominently based on European practices.  For Black women who are seeking to find ways to live In The Center of Their Power, Vodoun is one path to follow.  Whether Celtic or African, witches were feared and even killed for their mystical wisdom that was often used for healing the community.  It is a changing of perception that encourages Yvette Wyatt to walk boldly as, The MotownWitch. Vodoun is a religion practiced by the Aja, Ewe, and Fon peoples of Benin, Togo, Ghana, and Nigeria.  It was brought to the America by Africans who were enslaved.  It is practiced in Louisiana in the US and other areas of the Black Diaspora where West Africans found themselves including Haiti.
