Summary
Michael Davis is a board-certified chaplain and mindfulness leader with over 30 years of healthcare chaplaincy experience, specializing in cardiovascular, palliative, and end-of-life care. He now blends contemplative practice, positive psychology, and practical AI literacy to help individuals and organizations navigate serious illness, life transitions, and everyday flourishing. Michael runs community offerings—Thursday Mindful Meet-ups, the WorldwideStew podcast and newsletter—and provides in-person and Zoom chaplain visits across North Dallas. Trained in Narrative Medicine at Columbia and completing UPenn’s Positive Psychology certificate, he pairs evidence-based insights with pastoral sensitivity rather than simple cheerleading. A longtime caregiver advocate and co-founder of ElderHope, he also brings workplace mindfulness certification and a knack for making science accessible to nontechnical audiences.
