It’s Time To Remove The Stigma: Let’s Talk About It!
MI Healthy Mind is a 30-minute TV talk show with a focus on all things Health and Wellness, particularly in the mental health and behavioral sectors. Seasoned hosts, Elizabeth Atkins and Michael Hunter explore a vast range of subjects (addiction,
depression, bipolar, autism etc) with valuable insights and lively conversation from popular entertainers, experts, athletes, and other newsmakers. But most important, MI Healthy Mind showcases real people, “the heroes” who have
overcome and triumphed over their mental health issues. In the wake of incredible loss, or adversity, these people found a way to turn personal tragedy into hope.
“All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming.” — Helen Keller
“We each have a responsibility to make this world a little better for everyone,” Miller said. “I respect, fully and equally, every good human being.”
Irene Miller: Holocaust Survivor, Author, Speaker, Advocate, Educator and Mediator
Born into a Jewish family in Warsaw, Poland, Irene Miller’s parents were able to flee the country with their two young daughters to Soviet Russia where they were sent to labor camps in Siberia.
Irene Miller shares her story of surviving during the Holocaust and takes us on a journey of endurance little written and known about:
Sleeping in the winter under an open sky on the No Man’s Land; freezing in a Siberian labor camp where bears and wolves hovered at the door; living on boiled grass, and shivering with malaria; spending years in orphanages, and discovering that not one of the of nearly 100 members of her extended family survived the Holocaust.
Mrs. Miller is giving a face to the darkest chapter of human history while promoting tolerance. It is her desire to discuss her experiences, and to keep alive the memory of those who were lost in Holocaust and to fight against a reoccurrence of other genocides. But for years she chose not to talk about the fear, pain and constant hunger she endured as child during the Holocaust, even with her own children.
“Sharing my survival journey, shedding a light on this dark chapter of history is my life now. Young people are the future leaders of this country,” she tells us. “It is important not just that they know what happened, but that they know HOW it happened, because it will be their responsibility to make sure that they do everything possible to prevent such atrocities from occurring again.”
Her mission is to inspire positive action including anti-bullying, and to empower people to overcome obstacles in their life by example. Irene now speaks, traveling all over Michigan to promote tolerance and acceptance of diversity. She also helps others overcome traumatic experiences.
But how did a child with this background grow up to become a positive, creative, accomplished woman with a joy of living and love to share?
