Quotes:

  • “There is an opening that happens when you travel across the ocean.”
  • “If we find a way to connect or reconnect with our soul, then we can rely on our internal guidance system and navigate life with this inner connection.”

Episode Highlights:
Michal discusses her journey from childhood "soul diminishing" experiences to creating her "Soulful Healer" method.

She reveals how growing up in Israel, facing cultural shocks, and surviving personal trauma like miscarriages informed her approach to trauma healing. 

Influenced by her family's Holocaust history, Michal has trained over 3,000 individuals in Reiki over the past 20 years. 

Expressing Emotions:
Michal recalls growing up in a household where emotions were not expressed. At nine, she cried at a wedding, prompting her mother’s anger and discreet pinch to “smile.”

Culture Shock:
At 15, Michal’s father was transferred from Israel to New York, where she was amazed by the tall buildings. The intense culture shock sparked her desire to travel.

Personal Loss:
After marriage, Michal experienced six miscarriages, which had a profound impact on her journey into trauma healing.

Influential Groups:
Growing up in Israel fostered resilience in Michal. Later, seeking connection, she joined various spiritual and meditation communities. She studied color healing in England, explored meditation in Germany, and joined personal growth communities in the U.S., all of which helped her reconnect with herself and embrace the inner work that became her mission.

Personality and Temperament:
Michal describes herself as a natural giver, a trait she inherited from her father. Since childhood, she has displayed compassion, kindness, and empathy, and over time, has learned the importance of setting boundaries for self-care.

Cultural Epiphanies:
When Michal and her husband moved to Germany, she was struck by how Europeans valued work-life balance, like leaving work at 5 PM to go socialize.

Before having children, Michal and her husband traveled to India, where she was deeply moved by the happiness and satisfaction she observed, even among those facing poverty.

What Brings out the Best in Michal?
Michal thrives when given opportunities to help people align with their values.

Soapbox Moment:
Michal invites us to a 90-minute Journey into the Soul session and encourages exploring her book, which delves into six keys for profound transformation.
