Welcome to The Sozo Room Podcast — a space where faith, mental health, and compassion are allowed to sit at the same table without contradiction.

In this trailer episode, host Mikallah Bowers, licensed mental health therapist and founder of The Sozo Room, introduces the heart, vision, and foundation of this podcast. What began in 2022 alongside her journey through graduate school in clinical counseling psychology has now become a space dedicated to healing, wholeness, and empowerment.

Mikallah shares her story as a therapist, a wife, a cat mom, and most importantly, a child of God. Drawing from both professional training and personal faith, she invites listeners into a holistic understanding of wellness—one that honors the mind, body, and spirit.

What Is “Sozo”?

The word Sozo is a Greek term found throughout the New Testament, often translated as to save or to heal. But its meaning goes much deeper. Sozo speaks to complete, integrated healing—spiritual, emotional, and physical restoration. It reflects God’s heart not just for survival, but for wholeness.

In this episode, Mikallah lays the foundation for why Sozo matters and how it shapes the conversations to come—especially for those who love God deeply yet still struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, or emotional wounds.

This Podcast Is for You If:

• You love God but still wrestle with mental or emotional challenges
• You’ve experienced church hurt, trauma, or unanswered questions
• You desire healing that honors both faith and mental health
• You’re seeking a compassionate, shame-free space to grow

This podcast exists to remind you that you are seen, your struggles do not disqualify you, and healing can be both instant or a process—and still be real.
