About this listen

Do you relate to healing trauma through new age practices like moon circles, yoga, sex magic, and tarot cards?


Have you noticed a link between childhood trauma, self-worth issues, and demonic influence?


Do you want to learn how to protect yourself from demons once and for all?


If you're nodding your head right now, this Living for Christ episode is for YOU.


Michaela Nikolaenko is the host of the Raised and Redeemed Christian podcast. Michaela was saved from the new age, strip clubs, substance abuse, childhood trauma, and toxic relationships. The miracles that God has worked in her life bring tears of awe to everyone she meets. Now, this beautiful sister in Christ is on a mission to shed God's light on the deception of the new age by talking about real things and providing encouragement for those who have been to the dark side and back.


In this authentic, activating episode, Michaela shows you exactly why abuse and trauma led her to the new age, how she encountered a demon head-on in a toxic relationship, and what sin God released from her thereafter. Hear more from Michaela @michaelanikolaenko on IG and on her Raised and Redeemed podcast.


Press play now to learn about:


  • How childhood trauma, addiction, church hurt, and abuse misrepresented Christ in Michaela's childhood and led her to the new age
  • Why a shy, broken-down girl sought to reclaim her power and her liberation through the strip club
  • What it's like to feel too bad and dirty to fit in with the wholesome church goers
  • How self-worth issues from childhood trauma led Michaela to idolize material possessions, money, and relationships with men
  • Why selling her soul to sugar daddies, strip clubs, and toxic love led to numbing through drug and alcohol abuse
  • How nothing truly changed through trying to change external circumstances and relying on her own strength, without God
  • How God wanted to help her, while Michaela felt ashamed for the shoplifting charge that brought her life crashing down the first time
  • Why yoga, Christ consciousness, feminism, and the new age are not new, but the same rebellion that's been going on forever
  • How tarot cards, new moon and full moon circles, white witch circles, Jesus as a deity, blood rituals, sex magic, and other new age practices claimed to provide healing for Michaela, while just adding layers of destruction to existing trauma
  • How a demon wanted her for sex, and how she learned that Jesus was the only way to protect herself from demonic forces
  • Why trauma led Michaela to sex magic and strip clubs, and the lie of taking back your power
  • and so much more...
