Episode 87: Fear Is Loud, Peace Whispers: My Bold Move to Panama
What happens when comfort starts to feel like a cage?
In this honest, witty, and heartfelt episode, Michele pulls back the curtain on her bold move to Panama — a decision fueled by courage, faith, and a deep need for peace. She opens up about the excitement and the fear of leaving behind the only system she’s ever known, sharing how America has a funny way of programming its citizens to stay inside the box.
With her trademark humor and soulful truth-telling, Michele dives into:
The moment she realized she was surviving, not living
The family conversations (and chaos) behind this generational move
How she’s redefining success from “grind culture” to peace culture
What she hopes her son — and every listener — learns about freedom and bold choices
If you’ve ever dreamed of living abroad, traveling for peace instead of stress, or breaking away from society’s hamster wheel, this episode will speak to your soul.
Because sometimes, the bravest thing you can do… is start over.

Episode86: Addicted to Evil: Why We’re Hooked on Serial Killers
We say it’s “just curiosity”… but let’s be real — we’re addicted to the thrill.From Dahmer to Gacy, Netflix and Peacock have turned murder into binge-worthy entertainment, and we’re all pressing play like it’s self-care.
But why? What makes us fascinated by the darkest corners of humanity? Why do we feel safe watching horror as long as it’s someone else’s nightmare?
In this episode of Talk to Me Michele, I’m diving deep into our obsession with serial killers — the psychology, the danger, and the dopamine hit we pretend isn’t there.We’ll unpack why fear feels good, how Hollywood cashes in on our morbid curiosity, and what this says about the world we live in today.
It’s real talk, raw truth, and just the right amount of spooky.Because let’s be honest… It’s all fun and games until the documentary starts to feel a little too familiar.
