Faith, Folklore and the Lessons They Left Us
In Faith, Folklore, and the Lessons They Left Us, Melanie reflects on the legacy of women healers often labeled “Granny Witches,” weaving personal memories of her grandmother with the broader folklore of women’s faith, care, and community wisdom. This conversation explores how practicality and learned expertise shaped their work—long before modern healthcare systems recognized such knowledge. Together, Melanie and Molly consider how these traditions continue to influence the way we understand healing, intelligence, and women’s authority today.
