Today we’d like to introduce you to Allie Barbera.
Hi Allie, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
My journey into this work has evolved over many years.
I first studied Numerology and began offering readings professionally in 2011. As my first business (an onsite beauty business) grew, I became too busy to continue offering sessions publicly, so for a time I limited my Numerology work to friends and family.
In 2023, I returned to the practice professionally under the name Temini112, once again offering Numerology readings. Soon after, following several years of Tarot study and earning my Akashic Records certification, I expanded my offerings to include Tarot and Akashic Records readings, along with psychic mediumship, which I had previously trained in as well.
While I loved being a reader and helping people gain clarity through spiritual insight, I realized that another part of my path was calling me forward: teaching. My personal witchcraft practice had become something I felt uniquely equipped to guide others in, especially those navigating the path on their own.
In late 2025, I rebranded to The Village Witch Haven™, shifting my focus toward teaching, mentoring, and creating community for solitary witches.
It has been quite the evolution, but every step has led me here, and I truly feel I am doing the work I was meant to do.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
I’m very grateful that I’ve found my calling in this life, and that brings some ease with it. I don’t feel lost or unclear, because I know what I’m meant to do: share knowledge about witchcraft, guide others on their path, and build community.
At the same time, the word “witch” carries a stigma that can present challenges. Certain religions, the entertainment industry, and even children’s books have painted a picture of witchcraft that is often negative, sensationalized, and inaccurate. Because of that, there are still moments when it feels difficult to tell people what I do, which is something I never experienced when I owned businesses in other industries. In those ventures, I could share my work freely without worrying about judgment, misunderstanding, or assumptions being made before anyone even knew me.
Building a business in the spiritual space requires not only entrepreneurship, but also the willingness to stand visibly in work that many people misunderstand. While that can be vulnerable, it has also strengthened my commitment to education, authenticity, and helping reshape the conversation around what modern witchcraft truly is.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?
The Village Witch Haven™ is a modern witchcraft education and community platform created for solitary witches seeking guidance, structure, and connection on their path. My work centers around teaching practical, accessible witchcraft in a way that is grounded, thoughtful, and free from fear-based gatekeeping.
I specialize in helping witches build a sustainable, personalized practice through education, mentorship, and community support. Through group calls, classes, workshops, membership offerings, and spiritual guidance, I help students move beyond surface-level aesthetics and into a deeper understanding of witchcraft and how they can use it to improve their life.
What sets The Village Witch Haven apart is that I do not simply provide information–I provide context, discernment, and mentorship. Rather than teaching techniques, I help practitioners understand the deeper context behind their craft–where practices come from, why they matter, and how to adapt them in a way that aligns with their unique path. I place a strong emphasis on critical thinking, intentional practice, and building confidence in one’s own intuition rather than dependence on outside authority.
Brand-wise, I am most proud of the community-centered space I have built through The Village Witch Haven and its membership community, The Village Coven. At the heart of my work is the belief that witches are not meant to walk this path alone. So many practitioners feel isolated in their spirituality, and I have intentionally created spaces where they can learn, grow, and connect with others who understand their journey. More than a business, The Village Witch Haven is a place of education, belonging, and spiritual support for modern witches seeking both guidance and community.
My brand is about helping witches feel educated, empowered, and supported as they create a practice that is truly their own.
What matters most to you? Why?
It’s vital to me that solitary witches have a place where they feel seen, supported, and genuinely understood while walking this path. So many people come to witchcraft feeling spiritually isolated–without mentors, without community, and without anyone in their everyday life who understands this part of them. No one should have to navigate something so meaningful entirely alone.
In today’s world, social media often reduces witchcraft to aesthetics–beautiful altars, expensive tools, and curated rituals–but a genuine practice is about so much more than what it looks like. Witchcraft is deeply personal. It is spiritual growth, self-discovery, discipline, intuition, and devotion. It is a living practice that shapes how someone moves through the world.
What matters most to me is helping witches build practices that feel real, practical, and alignment with them while reminding them that they don’t have to walk their path alone. We all need a village, and that’s exactly what I strive to create.
