#78 Parenting by Design — Human Design, Energy Types, and Doing Less to Feel More with Erin Claire Jones


Listen Later

What if your parenting style, work habits, and even your sleep struggles could all be explained by your energy type?

In this episode, Human Design expert Erin Claire Jones is back—this time to talk about her new book (How Do You Choose), the realities of parenting with young kids while launching creative work, and how understanding Human Design has shifted the way she parents, partners, and paces herself.


We cover:

What Human Design looks like in real life—with babies, back-to-back meetings, and someone always needing a snack

Why being “lit up” matters more than being productive (especially for Manifesting Generators)

How rest, space, and honoring your energy type actually makes you a better parent

What it’s like raising kids with four different energy types in one household

Ways to support your kids and yourself using Human Design—without adding more to your plate


Plus: Erin breaks down all five Human Design types—Manifesting Generator, Generator, Projector, Manifestor, and Reflector—and shares stories, myths, and practical insights to help you better understand yourself and your family.


✨ Whether you’re deep in toddler mode, navigating marriage after babies, or simply trying to get a decent night’s sleep, this episode will help you feel more grounded, more aware of your patterns, and more compassionate with your own capacity.
