Why am I like this?

You’re not “dramatic,” “overthinking,” or “too sensitive.”
You’re running an old emotional program—your Primal Wound.

It’s the nervous system’s emergency response system.
The same way your body reacts when a car in front of you slams the brakes, your mind reacts the same way emotionally when it feels threatened:
panic, freeze, shut down, overcorrect.

Where does it come from?

Childhood.
(Yes, even with loving parents.)

It begins as a tiny thought:
“I’m not good enough.”

And hardens into a lifelong vow:
“I’ll never be good enough.”

Then—we choose partners, careers, and situations that prove it right again and again.

This quick assessment has helped hundreds of people uncover the invisible belief quietly shaping their reactions, their relationships, and their self-worth.

Created by a doctoral-level therapist, it’s rooted in clinical work, emotional research, and real people navigating real life.

When you know your Primal Wound, you can finally recognize when it’s hijacking your reactions—
and learn when to let it protect you… and when to disarm it (instead of slamming the brakes when traffic is only slowing down).

Answer a few questions and discover the story that’s been running your life—
so you can finally rewrite it.

How long does the quiz take?

Most people complete the quiz in 10-15 minutes. Each question is crafted to reveal the underlying patterns that drive day-to-day emotional responses.

What happens after I take the quiz?

After receiving results on the Primal Wound, users get access to personalized insights and resources designed to help them understand their wound. They are also invited to explore the PRIMAL Reset System, coaching options, and Dr. Michaela’s upcoming book for deeper transformation.

Is the quiz free?

Yes. The quiz is completely free and open to anyone who wants to better understand themselves. For those wanting to go further, additional tools and coaching are available.
