DR. EBEN ALEXANDER: NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCE, PROOF OF HEAVEN & LIFE AFTER DEATH
What happens when a world-class neurosurgeon—trained to believe consciousness ends with the brain—spends seven days in a coma that rewrites everything he thought was true?In this unforgettable conversation, Dr. Eben Alexander III, Harvard-trained neurosurgeon and #1 New York Times bestselling author of Proof of Heaven, takes us inside the near-death experience that transformed his life—and the emerging science explaining why consciousness exists beyond the brain.Dr. Alexander spent 25 years in the operating room, fully committed to materialist science. But in 2008, a sudden and aggressive brain infection plunged him into a week-long coma—one doctors said he had “no chance” of surviving with any neurological function. What happened next defies everything he once believed.In this episode, we explore:✨ The moment his scientific worldview shattered✨ The “Gateway Valley,” angelic realms, and life review he witnessed✨ Why he emerged with no memory of his life—and why that mattered✨ The scientific evidence for reincarnation and non-local consciousness✨ How music acts as a portal between worlds✨ The miraculous force of unconditional love that governs the universe✨ Why near-death experiences often catalyze profound physical healing✨ What his recovery taught him about the power of the mind to heal the bodyDr. Alexander’s account is one of the most layered, detailed, and scientifically significant NDEs ever recorded—so compelling that physicians later published a medical case report confirming his brain was incapable of producing any hallucination, dream, or memory during his coma. And yet, the experience he returned with changed everything.If you’ve ever questioned what happens after we die… why we’re here… or how healing really works, this conversation will stay with you long after it ends.Work with me 1:1If you're carrying a story inside you—through illness, trauma, loss, or rebirth—and you’re ready to reclaim your voice, my Story as Medicine coaching program is open.Release your story so you can heal. https://michellekatzstorycoaching.my.canva.site/your-story-is-the-medicine2BROKEN AND HEALED SUBSTACK:https://michellekatz.substack.com/_____________________________________________________________________________REFERENCES FROM DR.

Reinette Senum on 5G, Digital ID, and the Fight Against Government Overreach
In this urgent and eye-opening episode of Broken & Healed, Michelle sits down with Reinette Senum — fourth-generation Californian, former mayor of Nevada City, activist, and the only elected official in California who publicly challenged Governor Newsom’s statewide mask mandate at the height of COVID. Reinette shares the moment everything shifted: the Friday morning public-health briefings where questions were silenced, Zoom calls where she was muted or dogpiled, and the point at which she realized something much darker was unfolding behind the scenes. Her story of stepping down from office to warn and protect her community is both heartbreaking and amazing. Together, Michelle and Reinette dive into:Being muted, ignored, and shut down for asking basic questionsRecognizing “ulterior motives” in early 2020 briefingsThe moment she resigned after declaring that crimes against humanity were being committed Why she refuses to leave CaliforniaWhat it means to fight on the “front lines”Exhausting all political avenues and realizing no one is coming to save us — except us Reinette describes driving around at 2–3 AM during lockdown and seeing fleets of utility trucks stringing broadband lines pole-to-pole under cover of darkness — a phenomenon confirmed by people around the world. She explains why this rapid expansion of broadband infrastructure, done without public hearings or environmental review, matters now more than ever.Reinette breaks down:Why antennas may soon appear every 400–750 feetHow this sets the foundation for a full digital-ID / social-credit frameworkWhy she believes this is the final “chain link” in a global digital-prison systemWhy courts likely won’t issue a stay even if the rule change is challenged Reinette shares why she believes we have reached a societal tipping point — a moment where people realize that every political route, every promised savior, every institutional remedy has been exhausted. And from that exhaustion comes clarity, unity, and the courage to fight strategically rather than chaotically. She discusses:Why the system wants you angry and reactiveWhy violence only strengthens the machineHow “the pen is mightier than the sword” is not a metaphor but a legal strategyThe emerging movement using lawful redress and personal liability to block unlawful telecom expansion This conversation is raw, revelatory, and definitely essential.If you’ve felt the exhausted or the sense that something kinda big is shifting beneath us — this episode will bring clarity, direction, and a deeper understanding of what we’re truly facing.This is one of the most important interviews we’ve done.It will leave you informed, awakened, and empowered.🔥 What Reinette witnessed during COVID as a sitting mayor🔥 The spiritual war Reinette believes we’re in🔥 What was happening during lockdown that no one was talking about🔥 The FCC’s newly proposed rule changes — and why this is the “linchpin”🔥 Is this the hill to die on?🔥 What we can actually do____________________________________________________________Explore Reinette Senum's Substack: https://substack.com/@reinettesenumsfoghornexpressConnect with Michelle:👉 Substack: https://michellekatz.substack.com/publish/posts/published👉 Story Is the Medicine (Coaching): https://michellekatzstorycoaching.my.canva.site/your-story-is-the-medicine2ORIGINAL KATZ & DAVID MUSIC: https://on.soundcloud.com/FdnOd0VteDE4LnJKTMKRISTIN WINDSOR - QUANTUM SELF-HEALING Connect with Kristin:Instagram: https://instagram.com/kristinsquantumcatalyzersFree Practice:https://kristinkarina.wixsite.com/consciousness

A HEARTFELT CONVERSATION WITH THE STAR OF MAY I BE FRANK: RECOVERY FROM ADDICTION, HEPATITIS C, AND THE HUMAN CONDITION
Frank Ferrante’s life reads like a modern parable of transformation. Growing up in Brooklyn and surviving decades of addiction, Hepatitis C, and deep trauma, Frank’s story was captured in the unforgettable documentary May I Be Frank. But behind the camera, his path to healing was anything but linear.In this intimate and wide-ranging conversation, Frank opens up about:Growing up in the Catholic school system and the wounds that shaped him.The desperation that led him to stumble into Café Gratitude, mistaking it for an AA meeting—an encounter that would forever change his life.Why recovery isn’t just about food or sobriety, but about support, community, and connection.His mystical understanding of prayer—not as petitioning, but as summoning the divinity within.The lessons of imperfection in art and healing: why waiting for the “perfect” moment can keep us from creating or transforming at all.Frank’s wisdom resonates with the timeless teachings of spiritual masters like Neville Goddard: transformation must happen inside before it is ever reflected outside. Together we explore the nature of belonging vs. fitting in, the epidemic of chasing health, the role of community in healing (from Blue Zones to Café Gratitude), and what it means to live authentically in a culture obsessed with perfection and financial success.Frank’s words are a reminder that the opposite of addiction is connection, and that often, our deepest wounds hold the key to our greatest calling.This episode feels like a big hug—a conversation about humanity, resilience, and the mystery of what happens just before a miracle enters your life.WANT TO WRITE YOUR STORY?

THE HIDDEN HISTORY OF LYME - with AUTHOR and PRODUCER KRIS NEWBY
In this episode of BROKEN AND HEALED I sit down with Kris Newby, the award-winning science writer, producer of the GROUNDBREAKING documentary Under Our Skin, and author of the EXPLOSIVE book Bitten: The Secret History of Lyme Disease and Biological Weapons and we dive deep into a subject that hits very close to home. What begins as a personal story of illness—hers and her husband’s—quickly unfolds into a much darker tale of cover-ups, corrupted science, and institutional gaslighting. If you or someone you love has been told your symptoms are psychosomatic, or if you’ve ever wondered why it’s so hard to get a straight answer about Lyme disease or any other disease, this conversation is important. We go beyond the diagnosis and into the systems designed to keep patients sick, silent, and spinning in circles. And we talk about how to break free.https://www.krisnewby.com/WANT TO WRITE YOUR STORY?

In this deeply inspiring conversation, spiritual life coach Connie Costa shares how she broke free from the inner critic and societal expectations to reclaim her truth, her health, and her joy — and how moving to Italy transformed not just her soul, but her body. From her early days as a traditional psychotherapist in Los Angeles to building a spiritually aligned coaching practice and living her dream life in Sicily, Connie opens up about the fierce blowback of stepping into your authentic voice, the radical difference between the food and lifestyle in Italy versus the U.S., and how slowing down to truly live can heal what you thought was unfixable.
