My name is Linea Johnson. I am an author, speaker, consultant, and the founder and CEO of The Thrive Shift. I am also co-author of Perfect Chaos: A daughter’s journey to survive bipolar, a mother’s struggle to save her.

I help companies start essential conversations about mental health in the workplace. Whether through personal interaction or a change in policies or systems, I teach leaders how to implement change through compassion, curiosity, and courage.

I provide keynote speeches, training, one-on-one consulting, and mental health awareness campaign development to ensure we create system-wide change rather than a one-off moment.

Outside of work, my life revolves around books, music, my dog, and my health. As someone who lives with bipolar, is in recovery from anorexia, and has all the fun that accompanies a chronic illness, I spend a lot of time assessing what really matters in life and how I can be kinder, gentler, and more supportive of myself, my family and friends, and my community.
