The Chaos Box, an Angry Customer, and "Are You Going to Do the Work?" | Astrology Ride of the Day

Everything at the Witch Depot ships online too — including the shop's top seller, the Chaos Box, a mystery grab bag that always comes with a tarot card and whatever else Lindy throws in that day. She walks through her most popular items, admits she's not big on social media, and shares the address for anyone driving to Kenner. Then comes the most memorable thing that's ever happened in her store — a customer screaming and throwing product on the counter, trying to curse her out loud, in front of witnesses. Lindy's response: call the cops, and let the negative publicity work in her favor. From there the conversation turns to teaching — why she quietly gave up on group classes, why she still takes on one private student at a time, and the question underneath all of it: are you actually going to show up and do the work? Know thyself. Balance your energy.
