About the show
The Numinous Podcast is a show about intuition, spirituality and the mystery of life. The host, Carmen Spagnola, is an intersectional witch and clinical hypnotherapist who has smart, soulful conversations with interesting people. The lineup is diverse, the topics are eclectic, and the people are down-to-earth (mostly).

— Lauren Wallett"The Female Lifestyle Empowerment Brand" was one of the most powerful and eye opening podcast episodes I've yet listen to. Thank you!
— thelittleflowerpetalI've listened to a loot of podcasts and never felt compelled to leave a review. Something about this podcast sparks something in your soul. Educational and inspiring, and really allows you to look inwards towards your own inner truth. Great job!
— TillsszsHands down the most interesting podcast for spiritual explorers.
— Frith BYesterday I listened to three of your podcasts while I made drums. The sound was perfect and it made my afternoon even more fulfilling than if I had been working in silence.
— Nikiah S.There a quiet force and a loud authenticity to every episode. If my awareness was a prism, this podcast was the light that shone through (and into) so many colourful insights. And my favourite part – she's not afraid to address the difficult issues.
— DilshadThere is a relaxed quality within nicely structured conversation that struck me from the beginning. I feel less alone listening to the topics and folks Carmen brings forward. I learn about things I didn't even know existed, or more deeply about things I'm already exploring.
— Christi JHer experience with attachment types, somatic work, trauma, hypnotherapy, intuition, mythology, and ecology inform her interview style, allowing her to ask questions that serve the podcast listener and guest alike. The topics Carmen covers are like a tall glass of water I didn't know I needed. Her podcasts make me feel validated, heard and attended to...Carmen leads the way in pertinent social movements with her territorial acknowledgements, interviews with marginalized groups, and discussions on privilege, leading to my fragility, my power, and my power to grow simultaneously.
— ShannonZoiaThe guests and Carmen always meet me at my deepest levels and help show me how to remember myself and find my way. The Numinous Podcast is a precious gift.
