Balancing Mind, Body, and Spirit Through Grief with Michaela S. Cox

Welcome back to another episode of the Mindful You podcast with your host, Alan Carroll. In this deeply moving conversation, Alan welcomes Louisiana-based author Michaela Cox, who shares her incredible journey through adversity and transformation. Michaela's life story is marked by what she calls “38 triple D”: disability, divorce, and the death of her husband—all before the age of 38. Despite these overwhelming challenges, Michaela has found a path to not only survive but thrive, and she’s turned her experiences into a source of hope for others.

During the episode, Michaela introduces her powerful framework for healing, outlined in her latest series, “Finding Grace Through Grief.” She walks us through the five keys of G.R.A.C.E.—Grounding, Redesign, Abundance, Care, and Equipped—which have helped her regain stability and balance in the midst of life’s storms. Together, Michaela and Alan explore how mindfulness, faith, and self-compassion can create a roadmap toward resilience, even in the darkest moments.

If you’ve ever faced loss, emotional upheaval, or simply want to learn practical tools for living more mindfully, this episode is filled with wisdom, vulnerability, and actionable advice. Join us for a journey into healing, hope, and the power of choosing your own path forward.
