Description

Gritty Convos About Life. This podcast is where we talk about the turbulence that shapes us (in the best way). Hosted by commercial pilot and creator of the 7 Primal Wounds framework, Dr. Michaela, these conversations are sometimes raw, sometimes hilarious, and always thought-provoking—featuring celebrity guests and unforgettable humans who tell the truth most won’t. Expect topics that are unfiltered, unapologetic, and real. This is a space to live authentically, speak your truth with grace, and find the courage to evolve. It’s not about one topic. It’s about everything—the crappy weather and the blue skies—that shape your choices and lead you to the destination you dream of.

E276 The FAA’s Dirty Secret: Fear, Stigma, and Pilot Mental Health
2026/09/17
Behind the crisp uniform and steady voice on the intercom lies one of the most high-pressure, isolating professions in the world.

In this episode, we pull back the curtain on the silent struggles unfolding at 35,000 feet. We dive into the profound toll the aviation lifestyle takes on mental well-being, the career-ending terror tied to seeking help, and what it actually takes to build a culture where aviators don’t have to suffer in silence to protect their flight status.
