About This Podcast

Book Witches is a podcast about books, big ideas, and the women who read like it’s a spiritual practice. Hosted by best friends Ynez and Aleks—yoga teachers who met in training and now live on opposite coasts—we dive into the stories that move us: from fiction and philosophy to memoir, myth, and everything in between.

We read widely, think deeply, and laugh a lot. The name Book Witches is a nod to the witchy woman archetype: curious, intuitive, a little unruly, and always up for a good story.
