I help people feel better in their skin — literally and metaphorically

Master Aesthetician, Human Design Practitioner, Creator of BEAUTY BY DESIGN

WHAT IS HUMAN DESIGN?

Human Design is a system of self discovery that draws from the I Ching, astrology, the chakra system and Kabbalah to create a map of how we are individually designed to move through the world.

Mikaela uses that map as a framework for observation.

Rather than treating Human Design as a set of rules to follow, she uses it to notice patterns: how someone makes decisions, where they may be working against themselves, what they instinctively respond to and what helps them feel more comfortable in their skin.

BEAUTY BY DESIGN makes those patterns tangible

MEET MIKAELA

Mikaela MacLean has spent her career studying beauty, skin and the people living inside it.

Her career began in aesthetics, with a professional background spanning dermatology, plastic surgery and luxury skincare.

Over two decades spent working closely with people developed an instinct for observation that continues to shape everything she does.

Her study of Human Design and alternative healing modalities expanded that curiosity beyond the surface of the skin, offering another way to explore the relationship between identity, instinct, environment and the way we experience ourselves.

What People Are Saying

“I booked a virtual Human Design session with Mikaela after finding her Instagram page, and I cannot express how positive and impactful this experience was for me. I anticipated this would be a good time in my life for this session, which is transitional in many ways, but I did not expect to feel as authentic and understood as I did throughout and after the session.”

“Human design shows you the path that is most successful for YOU and your unique energetic layout. I would highly suggest a session for anyone who is ready to step into their truest self and path of alignment. I truly look forward to many more sessions with Mikaela”

“What an incredible experience. I had my human design reading with Mikaela and it was nothing short of mind blowing. I have had a few readings with other people, all of which have been insightful. But this was next level. Mikaela has an unmatched ability to distill down ALLLL the information and make it tangible, relatable and applicable.”
