Let It All Out: Grief, Rage, and Reclaiming Your Voice with Nichole Lee
What happens when the pain of loss becomes the portal to your power?
In this raw and deeply human conversation, Michelle sits down with transformational guide and disruptor Nichole Lee to talk about the grief that cracked them open and the messy, magical journey back to themselves.
From the devastating loss of Nichole’s mother to Michelle’s back-to-back heartbreaks after losing her dad and grandma, they unpack how grief, burnout, and rage forced them to stop performing and start listening. This is not a how-to-grieve episode. It’s a permission slip to rage, sob, scream, nap, eat ice cream, and let it all be sacred.
They share the tools that actually work for healing, how spiritual awakenings can blindside you mid-breakdown, and why screaming contests in the living room might just save your life.
If you’re navigating grief, identity loss, or simply asking “Who the hell am I now?”, this conversation will meet you where you are and show you how to alchemize the mess into something meaningful.
In this episode:
- What delayed grief really looks like (and why it blindsides you)
- The difference between coping and numbing (and why both matter)
- Why spiritual awakenings often follow emotional breakdowns
- The link between suppressed emotions and burnout
- How to find your grief toolkit and why it’s personal
- Using ritual to turn grief anniversaries into sacred celebrations
- The power of giving every version of yourself a seat at the table
This episode is for the ones riding the wave. The ones screaming in their car or zoning out in the bathtub. The ones who know there’s something sacred in the sadness and who are ready to meet themselves there.
