Tarot, Witch Wounds & Bankable Beliefs: Turning Intuition Into Income (with Carla-Jayne Hollingworth)

Tarot, Business & the Courage to Be Seen

Welcome to the Soulprism Podcast — blog-style, for those who prefer to read rather than watch.

This episode is a real one. I highly recommend watching, because her energy is magic!!

I sat down with Carla-Jayne Hollingworth, aka The Practical Magic Coach, to talk about tarot, money, visibility, and the stories spiritual entrepreneurs are still carrying — often without realizing how deeply they live in the body.

As Carla-Jayne put it:

“Tarot isn’t inherently mystical. It’s a psychology tool. And I love me some psychology.”

Same girl!!


And this conversation went straight for the witch wound most of us are still pretending we’ve healed.

From the Broom Closet to the Boardroom

Carla-Jayne has been practicing tarot since she was a teenager. Then life happened.

“I left all my witchiness behind in 2009 when my father passed away. I was like… if I couldn’t help him, then what was the point?”

It took a full decade for her to come back.

And when she did?

“I kicked the broom closet door open and said, ‘I’m back, bitches.’”

This wasn’t a soft return.


It was a battle cry from her soul, awakened, alive and ready to rock.

Tarot as a Bridge (Not a Bypass)

One of the most grounded insights she shared:

“People will listen way more to their own energy than they’ll listen to somebody external.”

Tarot works because it bypasses defensiveness. It is a divination tool, and has it's own language and archetypes.


It speaks to the higher self, not the ego.

“It’s the collective unconscious. They’re listening to themselves — and that feels safer.”

Especially in business, where fear, visibility, and survival instincts are real. You meet all parts of yourself when you start creating sovereign wealth.

The Witch Wound & Charging for Spiritual Work

This part hit deep — for both of us. Honestly, I needed to hear this myself.

Carla-Jayne named something many avoid:

“There are still people who say, ‘That’s a spiritual service — you shouldn’t charge for that.’.....And I’m like… do I not need to eat?”

She didn’t romanticize it.

“We’re not in the village anymore. The village witch still received tithes. There was always an energy exchange.”

The wound isn’t about money.
It’s about safety. Belonging. Survival.

It's about honouring our innate gifts, talents, and healing abilities, and valuing ourselves enough to create sustainability and a little extra to have some fun with!

Practical Magic (Not Manifest Harder)

One of my favorite moments:

“I’m science first. I will always question mundane before magic.”

Her work doesn’t bypass reality.

“I’d rather people use a practical solution first than jump straight to ‘I need to manifest harder.’”

Magic supports action.
It doesn’t replace it.

Let that sink in....it's not either or, it's AND.

Most of Carla-Jayne’s clients are neurodivergent — and she designs for that intentionally.

“Sometimes you still need things broken down. That doesn’t go away just because you’re in your 30s or 40s.”

She said it plainly:

“I’m the one people come to when they say, ‘I still don’t get it. Please tell me again.’”

That’s leadership.

A Tarot Reading for the Collective

We closed with a three-card spread — for not only my birthday (January 27th) but for the collective as well.

Of course the cards all came up reversed and willy nilly for my dyslexic ass, lol.

Three of Wands (Reversed)

“Plans have been made… but there’s hesitation. Not seeing the full path feels scary.”

Queen of Pentacles (Reversed)

“This is about money, safety, security — and giving our power away.”

Judgment (On the Cusp)

“Yes, you’re letting go of the story… and yes, some of it is still sticking.”

Her words:

“We need to let go of the self-judgment and the fear of being judged by others — and ask if this story is still serving us.”

No bypass.
No sugarcoating.

Toward the end, Carla-Jayne said something quietly profound:

“The spiritual work never ends. You can see that as exhausting… or as getting to experience new parts of yourself each time you release something.”

That’s the tone of this episode.

Not fixing.
Not chasing.


Just meeting yourself honestly — again and again.
