In this powerful episode, Shannon sits down with Michelle Manley—soma-spiritual mentor, Reiki Master Teacher, Jungian tarot reader, and neurodivergent healer who has walked the path of reclaiming herself after surviving a cult, an abusive marriage, and a near-death experience.

Michelle shares her journey from deep trauma and chronic illness (including CPTSD and fibromyalgia) to a life of healing and empowerment. She opens up about the moment she realized she was truly “coming home” to herself, and how energy work, ritual, and the divine feminine became her anchors for transformation.

In this conversation, you’ll hear:

Michelle’s story of survival and reclamation: From cults and abuse to a profound awakening and the first steps of healing.
How trauma lives in the body: Michelle’s insights on the connection between trauma, chronic illness, and somatic healing.
The power of simple daily rituals: Michelle shares the practices that help her stay grounded and connected to herself.
Reclaiming the divine feminine: How Michelle guides women to reconnect with their essence—spiritually and somatically—especially after experiencing disempowerment.
Healing tools for intuition and self-trust: The role of Jungian tarot and Reiki in rebuilding intuition and confidence after trauma.
Hope and the alchemy of healing: What “reclamation of self” means to Michelle now, and her message for women just beginning to remember their power.

Michelle’s story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of energy work, ritual, and self-compassion. She offers practical wisdom for anyone seeking to heal from trauma, reconnect with their body, and step into their own unique power.
