There’s power in the pen, and Mila the Phoenix is proof. A poet, performer, and practicing therapist, Mila merges her love for the stage with her mission to raise mental health awareness in every line she delivers. Her journey into spoken word began not with applause, but with heartbreak. What started as an emotional release quickly transformed into a purpose-driven art form, one that not only helps her heal, but helps others feel seen, heard, and understood.
For the past two and a half years, Mila has been using her voice to shift the conversation around emotional well-being. She doesn’t just perform poems, she opens portals, gently guiding her audience through the layers of pain, reflection, and recovery. With a unique perspective as a therapist in both private practice and organizational settings, Mila uses poetry as a bridge between art and advocacy, healing and expression.
This isn’t just poetry, it’s medicine.
Mila is currently crafting her debut spoken word album, an intimate collection that blends performance with purpose. And at this year’s Jasai Open Mic Night, she’s stepping into the spotlight to do what she does best: turn pain into power and poems into pathways of hope.
