Brandi is excited by each of the guests that come on the podcast, this conversation with Erin Claire Jones certainly ranks in her top 5. Why you might ask? Erin is an expert in Human Design and has spent years studying and applying this principle that teaches us how to be more of ourselves and invite more ease into our daily lives. In this warm conversation Erin shares how parents particularly can use Human Design to make parenting easier, but more importantly to create a parenting style and environment that allows your child to be themselves. You are not going to want to miss this one.

“Human Design is a synthesis of ancient wisdom and modern science that sheds light on a person’s energetic makeup, as well as specific tools they can use to live at their happiest, healthiest, highest potential. It doesn’t change who they are; it teaches them who they are. It offers insight into what’s possible, and highlights the significance of understanding and living as the fullest expression of themselves. 

By putting this tool to work in her own life, Erin is showing the world a new way of work, a new path toward success, and a new perspective on living as you truly are.”
