Maturing is realizing they never burned witches. They burned midwives, healers, herbalists, and knowledgeable women.
Women who understood medicine, nature, and their own autonomy. Women whose knowledge threatened patriarchal control. The "witch hunts" were never about magic, they were about silencing women who couldn't be controlled.

The White House is now SCARED telling Republicans to STOP talking about WHAT THEY WERE LOUDEST ABOUT DURING THE CAMPAIGN: MASS DEPORTATIONS...Here's why…
My son texted me the letter "X" at 11 PM.
That is our agreement.
It means: "Things are getting weird. Get me out. But make it look like you are the bad guy."
I called him immediately. I used my "angry dad" voice.
"I told you to clean the garage before you left! Get home right now or you're grounded for a month!"
He hung up, rolled his eyes at his friends, and said, "My dad is such a psycho. I gotta go."
He got in the car. He was safe. He didn't have to be a "snitch" or "uncool."
He just had to be the kid with the annoying dad.
I will wear that badge every single day if it keeps him safe.
“Can I bring my baby to the interview?”
The message came in at 11 PM:
“Hi, I have an interview with you tomorrow at 2 PM. My childcare fell through. Can I bring my 8-month-old? I understand if you need to reschedule.”
Old me would have rescheduled.
Unprofessional. Distraction. Red flag.
New me replied:
“Absolutely. See you tomorrow.”
She showed up with her baby on her hip.
She apologized three times before even sitting down.
Ten minutes in, the baby started crying.
She tried to soothe him while answering questions.
She apologized again.
I stopped the interview and said:
“Hey. You’re managing a fussy baby, answering complex questions, and staying calm under pressure. That’s literally the job. Handling chaos while staying professional. You’re already proving you can do it.”
Her eyes filled with tears.
We hired her.
She’s been with us for a year now.
The most reliable team member we have.
Why?
Because when you’re used to handling a screaming infant at 3 AM and still showing up to work the next day, workplace stress feels like nothing.
Working parents, especially mothers, are some of the most organized, efficient, and resilient people you’ll ever hire.
Yet we lose them because our hiring processes are built for people with zero caregiving responsibilities.
If your interview process can’t accommodate a parent facing a childcare issue, you’re not filtering for professionalism.
You’re filtering for privilege.
