About the Author
Hi, I'm Michaela Gaffen Stone-Human Design Coach, Board-Certified Behavior Analyst, and your guide in this journey through Aligned and Unapologetic. I've spent decades unraveling the mysteries of human behavior, culture, and what makes people tick (and stick)-and I'm thrilled to share what I've learned with you.
I was born in England and have lived in eight countries across four continents. Each place left its mark-whether it was managing a High Commission's medical clinic in Bangladesh, diving deep into Buddhism and mindfulness in Singapore, or running a boutique gym for women in Malaysia. All of it helped shape how I view health, identity, and what it means to live a life that feels truly aligned.
My path eventually led me to the U.S., where I became a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst. I bring the science of behavior together with the intuitive power of Human Design, creating a coaching approach that's practical, powerful, and completely personalized. I believe that when you understand your design, you get to stop second-guessing yourself-and start living with clarity, confidence, and purpose.
I also hosted the podcast Navigating Complicated Relationships, where I tackled the messy, beautiful, and sometimes hilarious realities of being human. The episodes are still available (because let's be real-those relationship tangles don't go out of style), and the podcast will be making a comeback soon with even more juicy conversations.
I live with my amazing husband, Adam Gaffen-without whom this book would never have seen the light of day. Together, we share a lively household with five dogs, five cats, and five wonderful grown kids who are off making their own marks on the world, each traveling a unique path-but always, always a part of our hearts and lives.
Whether you're brand new to Human Design or already deep into your journey, I'm here to support you in embracing exactly who you came here to be-with no apologies, no masks, and no more shrinking to fit. Welcome to the beginning of your unapologetic alignment. Let's go!
