Welcome to The Sozo Room Podcast, a space where faith, mental health, and real life meet without shame or extremes. I’m Mikallah Bowers, a mental health professional grounded in faith, and I created this podcast to explore holistic restoration—mind, body, soul, and spirit—through Scripture, personal stories, and practical insight.

Here, we dive into topics that matter: trauma, anxiety, depression, emotional wellbeing, and spiritual growth, while bridging the gap between psychology, science, and faith. Sozo, a Greek word meaning to heal, save, and restore, captures the heart of this podcast: helping you experience true wholeness, clarity, and peace.

Whether you’re seeking guidance, encouragement, or a deeper understanding of how God cares for all aspects of your life, The Sozo Room is a place to belong, reflect, and grow.

Grab your Bible, your favorite beverage, and join us on this journey toward healing, wholeness, and transformation.

  • Depression: Sinful, Demonic, or Human Nature?
    May 19 2026

    Is depression sinful? Demonic? A lack of faith? Or are we misunderstanding the conversation altogether?

    In this episode of The Sozo Room, Mikallah explores one of the most debated conversations within Christian spaces: the relationship between sin, spiritual warfare, and mental health. Through Scripture, psychology, and a holistic understanding of human beings as spirit, soul, and body, this episode unpacks how the fall affected every part of creation—and why healing may require more than one approach.

    This conversation does not diminish prayer, deliverance, or the power of God. Instead, it creates room for wisdom, discernment, and a fuller understanding of human suffering.

    If you've ever wondered whether depression automatically means spiritual failure, this episode is for you.
