Designed As You Human Design Podcast

If you feel like you are in the “in-between” or asking yourself, “Who even am I? What am I doing? Where am I going? What is my place in the world?”. You’re not the only one. There are moments in life where we feel neither quite here nor there — having neither departed nor arrived. Where you know what you don’t want, but don’t yet know what you do. 

We can feel a pressure to have life all figured out in a perfect box with bow. But there has to be an element of unknown & uncertainty if you are living your truest, intuitive life. Otherwise, it would be copying another or following your “should” of conditioning.

Just remember life isn’t something to ‘figure out’ from the mind, but allow your body to begin to show you, in time, in its own way. Lean into trusting your authority today, without it needing to prove for tomorrow. We are all just constantly evolving more and more into our deepest, truest selves.

If you find yourself in this space (been THERE and also know I will be there time and time again), you are supported, loved and will land on two grounded feet again. There will be times that we must walk through the space of limbo to get there. 

It’s all about your perspective: whether it is negative or a fruitful place of potential. For now, love yourself through your ‘in betweens’ with the knowingness that it’s all okay. It’s all a part of life, and you will be so grateful you held yourself through it. Your time will come again, and it’s already now, right here when none of it makes sense.

Today is a special one!! My good friend Holistic Therapist Alisha Weston is on to share about bridging the gap between Psychology and Spirituality. Alisha has an extensive background in both clinical psychology and holistic therapies, incorporating human design,  EFT,  Reiki, kinesiology, breathwork, yoga, and more into her therapeutic work, aiming to provide a pathway to authentic healing and self-discovery. 

Alisha shares her journey from burn out in her psychology practice to finding her way of a fulfilled work life by embracing and integrating her intuitive and spiritual gifts into her work.  She opens up about moving through self-sabotage, shattering your own glass ceilings, through the fears or assumptions of judgments, that often accompany the journey towards embracing your authentic self. This honest discussion sheds light on the inner battles faced when stepping outside conventional norms and the transformative growth that comes from pushing through discomfort. And how most often than not, you are met with unwavering support and feel so connected with your true expression and purpose!

Alisha's story is not only inspiring, but a call for anyone feeling constrained by societal expectations or professional boundaries. 

I adored this conversation and left feeling incredibly inspired to continue to push myself outside my comfort zone.

This episode is on the very human feeling of doubt. Doubting ourselves, our decisions,  our capabilities, our value to the world. But the thing is, your doubts aren't truth. 

Self doubt is just fear to protect you from loss, failure or rejection. Yet the irony is, doubt makes you lose out on all you could gain by trying. They are fear-fuelled stories you create about who you are, what you’re worth and what you’re capable of achieving. Most often than not, your doubts are the opposite of what you should believe.

I talk about how this protective mechanism hinders our potential, means that people that need our services are left unhealed, and your dreams are left unactualised. It is so important to not believe your doubts, and instead make aligned action.

Make Your Mission Bigger Than Your Fear. Why take the chance and move through the doubt? For a bigger reason than yourself. What would the empowered, self-believing version of you move through the world? Do exactly that, because that's your true essence, not the fear blocking it. Tell your doubts you’re not here for a safe life, but the biggest life you are capable of. Start to make aligned action & show your body that you can step into the unknown. This is where your confidence is built - disproving your mind’s stories by doing the scary and surviving, or better yet thriving.

If right now you are extra overthinking, self doubt or asking “what the hell am I even doing?”. Especially if you're in periods of change & transition. This is the episode for you!

Be kind to yourself, you're human in these times. This does not mean your project, work or people are wrong for you. Let this moment of questioning pass and stay rooted in your knowing & vision. Don't burn it all down. Your inner intuition is your guide, not your overthinking monkey mind.

What a beautiful conversation with Writer, Poet and Embodiment Coach, Meghan Bay who leads with her passion to guide others into a life that serves their authentic truth.  

This conversation with Meghan (5/1 Projector with Emotional Authority) is such a beautiful reminder that nothing good comes from forcing, pushing or controlling.

This podcast is for expansion purposes and what I would have needed to hear when I was in my little cubicle, dreaming of a different existence and career, but didn’t think it would be possible for me. 

So much can permeate your conscious brain when you hear another’s story, it can dramatically shift your ingrained beliefs. I also debunk some myths about finding success in this space.

I share the ins and outs of my journey from a corporate lawyer feeling stuck, drained and unhappy, to becoming a Human Design teacher & Retreat Facilitator, full of purpose and abundance. 

I speak on how I started to make the steps of manifesting what I have created now, gaining confidence, overcoming fear, and constantly taking the next aligned step of action. Today, I have created a business and life that I truly love and am proud of. 

The purpose of this podcast is to remind you that you have the choice and ability to design your life, at any moment you choose. 

If you would like to dive deeper into Human Design and created your own aligned, service-based business, join us for THE ADVANCED HUMAN DESIGN CERTIFICATION that BEGINS THIS WEEK

Welcome to part 2 of the deconditioning series. We dive deep into finding awareness of your conditioning through the open centers. We know that the first step is AWARENESS of your conditioned stories, so you can separate from them and re-write your narrative. Then you can actually move forward in life. 

Everything you think is a story and we are running off them. They can profoundly shape who we are & the decisions that we make. The problem arises if you identify & believe your stories that they are stopping you from living a life true to you.

You are not your story. 
 They are not your story about them. 
 The world is not your story about the world.

All the ways you think you need to be, how quickly it has to happen, how it has to look - all of it is just stories. And most based on the conditioning you received.

We need to understand what is not innately ours so that we can evolve into the individuals we were intended to be. I go through each of the centers, highlighting their unique themes and offering insight on how to overcome conditioning within each center.

Hope this one serves you my loves! xx

SHE'S BACK! My incredible best friend, Retreat Facilitator specializing in Human Design, Breathwork, and Somatic Practices -  Jelena Holodkova.

I had the honour of sitting down in person to chat with Jelena about all that 2023 brought her - a lot of challenges, beautiful experiences, and a whole lot of 1/3 lessons.  She highlights the importance of questioning our own narratives, allowing ourselves to embody contradictions, and stepping bravely into the unknown.

Jelena navigated through big life challenges including loss, grief, heartbreak and feeling disconnected from her home in Mexico. Jelena is the epitome of an incredibly resilient, embodied, powerful and graceful woman who shares with us how she is navigating the process and creating big change in 2024. She shares how our darkest moments often amplify our capacity for joy.

This heart-to-heart is more than just a sharing of hardships; it's a testament to the transformative power of embracing every emotional experience life presents us. This is for the person who is in the MIDST of big change and unsure of where they are going, but trusting their intuitive pulls. Life is presenting us with a series of clues and opportunities, we just get to decide whether we want to take them. Sometimes we just need 20 seconds of courage to make the change!

This one is all on 'deconditioning' - the process of releasing conditioned beliefs and expectations that do not serve our true expression of self. Aka the whole point of Human Design.

I share my own personal journey on moving through the Deconditioning process and how it will liberate you to embrace your authentic self by challenging societal pressures, familial expectations, and internalized beliefs. Your reality is a product of the stories you tell yourself, so choose wisely! 

I discuss how you know if you are operating on your conditioning and how you can begin to untangle and rewrite your narrative. It is about tuning into your intuition and inner voice, rather than succumbing to external pressures. As always, it is important to move through the reconditioning with self support, kindness, and celebration - it is brave but so so worth it!
