Michelle Renee and her daughter Breea went through unimaginable trauma after 3 men broke into their house, held them hostage for 14 hours, and forced Michelle to rob the bank branch she was managing at the time.

Michelle is a published author, producer and writer on the film based on her first true crime book, Held Hostage.

In this episode, she tells her story of her spiritual awakening that lead her on a 4,200- mile solo road trip into the rugged terrain of the Alsaskan wilderness where she braved the elements and faced her dark past. She retreated to Alaska to heal and to prepare to endure the criminal trails of their attackers.

Michelle's motivation was to model recovery from this horrific experience which both her and her daughter had to endure, that helps her daughter recover in a a healthy and positive way. Michelle shares that how you respond to a traumatic event is going to determine how long you remain a victim.

Michelle's second book, a memoir, entitled NINE DAYS: Living With My Soul Wide Open After Violent Trauma, will be released June 9th!
