Renamed by her tour staff, “Indiana Jane” for her utter perseverance to fund and travel the 7ft thundering symbol of the heartbeat of love globally, White Eagle has certainly “traveled to the beat of a different drummer,” placing herself in the midst of countless social, racial and political conflicts, environmental crisis’ and personal loss to sound the urgent call in awakening the heart of humanity. She has been honored to be initiated by many indigenous Elders and has been passed many of their ancient medicine bundles and global responsibilities. As a mother of two beautiful children and a total lover of humanity, White Eagle feels passionate that humanity can only move forward through positive prayerful activism focusing on the highest good of all and has often been referred to as the “Mother of the Rainbow Nation.”

During these world peace tours she has worked extensively on local environmental issues and reconciliation work with indigenous tribes from all around the world. Michaela has been honored by many indigenous Elders, initiated in their shamanic teachings and given medicine bundles and responsibilities to carry forward.

She serves as the foundation’s Board Member, Master Drum Maker, Ceremonial Artist, Health Practitioner, Flute Teacher and Recording Artist. Michaela organized and managed the Europe Peace Tour facilitating reconciliation ceremonies for Israeli descendants of the Holocaust at Austrian concentration camps.

She pioneered the foundation’s encompassing work on grief titled “Loss2Love”, teaching workshops and online courses, giving lectures and private sessions which all focus on empowering ways to build a new relationship with oneself and one’s deceased loved ones after earth-shattering loss. She also assists as an intuitive Medium to bridge the worlds with communication as she believes the dialog with our loved ones need not end but can ascend to new forms.

Michaela’s forthcoming memoir “Loss2Love” inspires others through her own journey of devastating loss. In 2009, her 19-year-old brother and only sibling died in a tragic car accident. Michaela’s greatest heartbreak, it was also the peak experience of a series of losses back-to-back which ultimately burned her whole life to the ground and literally so. Initiated by this hot fire of grueling, unbearable change, it also became the turning point of her life path to becoming a professional healer, teacher and mentor.

Broken by her brother’s death, Michaela traveled 20,000 miles across Canada by road and by foot, searching for healing and some kind of meaning in her utter despair. Cradled by the silence of the Canadian wilderness, nature restored a deep inner peace and unearthed an authentic spiritual path that led her north to Alaska where Michaela met White Eagle Medicine Woman. Intrigued by the foundation’s global peace, healing and sustainability work, Michaela began her five-year Apprenticeship.

Michaela holds a Master’s Degree in Literature and Communications from the University of Vienna. A graduate of the Upper Austrian Journalist Academy, she had a career as a political journalist in Austria working for newspapers and radio until she rerouted her life to becoming a professional healer, teacher, musician and author.
