46. The world is a mess. Now what? | Politics and Liberation Magic with Maritza Schäfer

In this episode of Let’s Get Metaphysical, Sam Cross sits down with Maritza Schäfer, founder of Bruja School and creator of Liberation Magic, for a grounding and activating discussion of magic, politics, spirituality, social justice, and collective transformation.

Together, they explore what it means to wake up to the magical nature of reality while living in a world shaped by disconnection, inequality, and spiritual amnesia. Sam gets honest about her tendency to spiral when the state of the world feels unbearable, and Maritza offers a grounded, powerful (and hilarious) perspective on how to stay connected to magic without bypassing reality.

This conversation touches on:

why magic is political

the link between spiritual disconnection and collective suffering

how social justice and spirituality are deeply connected

the power of paradox, grounding, and personal practice

what Liberation Magic actually is

who witches really are, and who fears them

how to channel anxiety into meaningful action

If you’ve ever wondered how to stay openhearted and spiritually connected in a chaotic world, this episode is for you.

Maritza Schäfer is the founder of Bruja School, where she teaches Liberation Magic—a transformational approach to magic that supports both personal and collective liberation. Her next cohort begins March 25th.
