Hey Peeps,
This month Hanny and Liz have an in-depth discussion about the statement that our wonderful friend Lynn made;
"Centuries old practice is not learned on TikTok. Don't school others on lore you read "somewhere". Chop wood, carry water puppies. There are no shortcuts." -- Lynn Parlett.
During the discussion, we cover:
- What is learning?
- How adult learners differ for children
- Wasps... yeah, there was an interloper or two!
- How annoying being schooled is... and is it okay to 'school' people?
- How readily available instruction is in the witchcraft community
- Is caring about other people's practice a good use of our time?
- Are there shortcuts we can take in our practice?
