Hey, I’m Bianca—owner of The Witchy Nook, part-time crystal slinger, full-time magic maker, and now proud committee member of the Hastings Business Women’s Network.
I run a little slice of witchy heaven in Port Macquarie where you’ll find crystals, candles, herbs, spell jars, and a whole lot of good vibes. I also host workshops, sound baths, readings, and meditations to help people tap into their power.
I’m all about community, connection, and lifting others up—whether that’s through my charity work with Bravehearts, Share the Dignity and The Nutured Village, or simply creating a space where people can show up exactly as they are in store.
Joining HBWN felt like a no-brainer—I love supporting other women in business and showing that you can be spiritual, successful, and have fun all at once.
