In this bumper, 2 part episode, we've made an effort to shift our advice to go beyond the initial "Seeking 101" stage, discussing the serious practicalities and personal work that lead from being an interested seeker to becoming an initiate: the realities and practicalities of commitment; self-reflection and handling rejection; outer court life; and what red and green flags covens look for in seekers (and vice versa).
