Podcast Insights
Content Themes
The show delves into themes of trauma, spiritual awakening, and personal healing, with episodes discussing topics like whistleblowing in the medical system, the challenges of healing from complex trauma, and the transformative power of truth-telling in one's journey to reclaim their voice.
Host Michelle Katz — writer, artist, and award-winning producer — speaks with truth-tellers, mystics, doctors, and survivors who challenge the idea of “incurable.”
Through stories of awakening, consciousness, and radical self-healing, the show asks: What if illness is not the end of the story but the beginning of a new one? Join us as each episode unravels the mysteries of our current health crisis and redefines the boundaries of what is possible for the human body now.
This is where it begins. SEASON 2 of Broken and Healed.
In this special bonus episode of Broken and Healed, I share Chapter 1 of my memoir, Awakening in an Age of Metals — a powerful story of chronic illness, medical gaslighting, and the unraveling that leads to spiritual awakening and deep healing.
“Buried Alive” is not just a title — it’s the lived experience of losing your health, your voice, and your sense of reality… while being told nothing is wrong.
This chapter takes you into the moment everything starts to fall apart — when the body breaks down, the system fails to respond, and the truth begins to surface beneath the noise. What unfolds is a deeply personal account of trauma, silence, and the early stages of a healing journey that would ultimately transform everything.
This episode explores:
- Chronic illness and unexplained symptoms
- Medical gaslighting and being dismissed by doctors
- Trauma stored in the body and nervous system
- Loss of identity, voice, and self-trust
- The first threshold of spiritual awakening
The music woven throughout this episode, This Too Shall Pass, was written in the middle of this experience — when I was still inside it, still searching, still holding on.
If you’ve ever felt unheard, unseen, or like your body was trying to tell a story no one would listen to… this is for you.
