Witch School Chapter 20, Sara Flores

Author: How to Survive the End of the World February 20, 2024 Duration: 1:06:14

adrienne welcomes Queer, non-binary, gender expansive, Two-Spirit human, Sara Flores to Witch School. They get into hot springs, presence-ing, “where intention flows energy goes”, mother’s backyard garden, picking red berries, making magic potions, being in a safe imaginary land, sacred kink, PLEASURE, surviving target violence, midwifery, the word “midwife”, unearthing what’s behind all of this, witch hunts on Turtle Island, children feeling magic, accessing your own divinity instead of someone else’s, the secret mission of this whole season being that we all have it, being specific, the plant you need is always nearest to you, yarro, spider medicine, not wanting to knock down wasp nests and safeguarding our attention!

Sara Flores (they/them) is a midwife who strives to forward the legacy of those who protected and passed on Indigenous Sacred Technology and who see health and bodily autonomy as key aspects of individual and collective liberation. They are a Registered Nurse, Certified Nurse Midwife, and Reproductive Justice Health Nurse Practitioner by way of the cis-heteronormative, racist education model that they are determined to disrupt. Sara has experienced joy and community accountability as co-author of “Freeing Ourselves: A Guide to Health and Self Love for Brown Bois”, being a founding member of the Healing Clinic Collective which provides free traditional healing clinics throughout Occupied Huichin(Bay Area California), and being a member of The Intergalactic Council of Midwives, a council that enhances the spiritual fortitude of midwives.

Sisters Autumn Brown and adrienne maree brown host How to Survive the End of the World, a podcast rooted in their shared lives as writers, activists, and facilitators shaped by multiracial diasporic lineages. This isn't a theoretical discussion about distant catastrophes; it's a direct, grounded conversation about the endings we are all already living through-the collapse of systems, the death of old ways, and the personal transformations that feel like worlds dissolving. Each episode delves into the tangible, often messy practices a community needs to navigate these ruptures. You'll hear them explore how we grieve, how we organize, how we imagine futures, and how we find wholeness even as things fall apart. The dialogue is intimate and urgent, moving from the kitchen table to the front lines of social change, always asking what it means to survive with integrity and connection. This podcast operates from the belief that learning to face endings together is the first, most necessary step toward building something new.
