Exploring Life & Business with Micaiah Gray of Micaiah Gray LLC

Today we’d like to introduce you to Micaiah Gray.

Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
As a devoted Christian, married at eighteen, I found myself searching for tools to help me heal my past and move forward in my new season of being a young wife and mom. coach struggling in the tension of my faith and my pain. Christian marriage coach with a passion for mental health and trauma healing, coaching tools, as well as faith and family. I’m the host of the United Christian Marriage podcast and the creator of the Deeply Connected Marriage coaching program where I teach wives how to transform their relationship with their husbands, themselves, and God, all by using biblical mindset and emotional regulation tools! I’m also certified in the Mind Firm Method by The Coach Firm! They taught me the coaching tools I needed to go out and teach other wives to be the coach of their home. What I love about being the coach is it’s not forceful or controlling. It’s a very light-hearted, supportive, curious, and compassionate role that makes everyone around you feel heard, seen, and loved.

I was born into a family full of pain and dysfunction.
My parents met through their drug dealer.
My dad started hurting my mom while I was still in her belly.
At age 5, my sister and I were placed in foster care.
Two years later, we were adopted.
It looked like a happy ending — but it wasn’t.

As I got older, I started to feel the weight of trauma.
I wasn’t addicted to drugs or alcohol, but I was addicted…
To my phone, to junk food, to unhealthy relationships —
and later, to nicotine.

In my teen years, I went through sexual assault, emotional abuse, and deep loneliness.
I felt like no one really saw me.
Even my faith got shaky — at one point, it felt like it disappeared completely.

But God had put something in me from a young age.
At 16, I started my first business — an online boutique.
Even through the pain, I felt called to more.
That calling never left me.

When I was 17, I finally spoke up about something wrong happening in my family.
But instead of helping me, my mom yelled at me.
She said I was trying to break the family apart.
That’s when I knew: she wasn’t going to protect me.

So I left. Displaced for a while.
Then I moved into a family member’s empty/unused apartment, which they used only when they were in town.
Then I found myself pregnant.
I was a senior in high school, living alone, trying to juggle school, cosmetology, and my future.
I finished high school, started healing, and slowly began rebuilding my faith.

Two weeks after my daughter was born, my now-husband proposed.
We were young. Learning to be parents. Learning to be married.
And right away, he got hurt — twice in a row.
We had no money. We were living in rough areas.
We were barely surviving.

But God wasn’t done.

Years later, we’re no longer stuck in survival mode.
We’re walking in healing.
We have a joyful, stable, faith-led marriage.
We know how to talk to each other.
We work as a team.

We still have hard days — but now, we have peace.

Through this all my entrepreneurial journey (that had started at 16) countinued and I struggeld to build a business and manage a marriage that, at times, felt like it was falling apart before it really began.

Now I help Christian wives who feel alone and disconnected from their husbands. They’re often called to big things —
but their marriage feels like it’s falling apart behind closed doors —
I want them to know there’s hope.
You don’t have to choose between your calling and your marriage.
You can heal both. I’ve lived it. And now I help others live it too.

I started the United Christian Marriage podcast almost a year ago, and it has grown into a top 5% globally ranked Christian podcast! Wives are resonating with the struggle of being emotionally dysregulated,

Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
– coming into marriage with multiple traumas in both of our past

– raising babies (2 under 2 might I add), figuring it out while figuring out adulthood

– building a photography business and then feeling called away from it as I had to focus on my youngest while he went through health challenges

– then feeling called to start a podcast with no clue of what it would be about or where it would go. And that turning into a part-time business from home.

– working in the salon on and off when needed. The struggle to help provide for things but also stay home and care for my babies.

– supporting my husband through appendicitis right after getting engaged and then a serious hand/wrist injury right after getting married

– Learning to communicate without rage/anger, pride, yelling, swearing, etc. Which were all ways we grew up communicating and watched our parents communicate. We knew we wanted something different but working out and living out the “how” was another thing.

– Choosing to make different choices for our children. (Ones that aren’t always understood by those around us)

– choosing to move away from the r city so we could raise our kids in a safer area that’s more rural.

-Learning to regulate emotions

– Deciding to give up a full ride scholarship to UofM Dearborn to stay at home with my kids and pour into my marriage. I knew going full-time (required by my scholarship) would keep me from being present with my newborn and new husband. So I laid it down and never looked back. I’m so glad I poured into my family and I’d make that decision 10X over. (I never stopped learning anyways)

Do you have any advice for those just starting out?
I recommend everyone look at their lives. What have you been through? Actually take the time to journal it out, analyze the common themes, and see obstacles you’ve already overcome. Then do some market research and genuinely track what people are saying. What do they want? What’s keeps being said by multiple people? What words and phrases and emotions are they repeating? Ta-da… you have your copy for whatever you choose to sell next! Now pair this with SEO research and you’ll be unstoppable. Consistency compounds friends! Always remember that.
