Listen "Dr. Michaela Johnson - 7 Primal wonds-youtube"
Episode Synopsis
Dr. Michaela Renee Johnson
Author | Pilot | Pattern-Breaker
Michaela was forged in fire—raised in a 27-foot fifth wheel with no running water in Desolation Wilderness, and no shortage of grit.
Today, she’s a licensed psychotherapist, best-selling author (Teetering on Disaster, Empowered a Motivational Journal for Women, Growth Mindset for Adults), and creator of
7 Primal Wounds™ and the Revelation Report™
After working with hundreds of clients, Michaela noticed a pattern:
Hidden emotional wounds formed in childhood were silently running the show—fueling relationship sabotage, fear-based decisions, and low self-worth, even if you had "great" parents.
She built tools to expose and rewire these patterns—grounded in neuroscience but proven in real life.
But Michaela doesn’t just talk transformation—she lives it.
A "taildragger girl" with instrument, commercial, seaplane, and multi-engine ratings, she won First Place in the 2023 Palms to Pines Air Race flying the slowest plane in the lineup, her beloved 1947 Piper SuperCruiser, Poptart.
“Clarity comes from gaining a perspective above the turbulence, but confidence comes from navigating the crappy weather.”
In 2025, she’s spreading her wings in the first ever Aerial Book Tour—flying across the U.S. to share the message that you can rewrite your emotional autopilot and reclaim your power.
Michaela’s mission is to help people stop spiraling, start choosing intentionally, and finally feel free.
Your past may explain you—but it doesn’t have to define you.
