How Trauma Shapes Your Identity, Purpose & Capacity for Abundance | Michelle Jeovanny

Episode 111: What if the hardest chapters of your life were the initiation — not the punishment? In this deeply moving episode of The Lost & Found Podcast, Amanda Powers is joined by Michelle Jeovanny, a spiritual life coach and entrepreneur who has transformed profound trauma into purpose, freedom, and abundance. Michelle shares her journey from escaping a violent homelife in the Dominican republic to navigating homelessness as a teenager in New York City, and eventually to spiritual leadership. Michelle discusses how ancestral patterns shape our relationships with money and love, and why walking in blind faith is often the gateway to becoming who you’re meant to be.

This episode explores:

• Identity loss and reinvention
• Ancestral healing and somatic freedom
• Spiritual entrepreneurship and abundance
• Trusting intuition in uncertain seasons
• Turning your “mess” into "magick"

If you’ve ever felt like your life fell apart before it truly began, Michelle Jeovanny’s story will meet you exactly where you are. This episode doesn’t tell you who to become, but it will remind you that you already carry the wisdom you've been looking for.
