For Manifestors, “inform and initiate” is more than a strategy line from Human Design. It’s a lived, often painful experience of being reacted to, misunderstood, or shut down long before you had language for what was moving inside you.

In this episode, we move beyond the mechanics of strategy and into the felt experience of being a Manifestor: your aura, your nervous system, your voice, and the deep conditioning that can make informing feel anything but natural.

We explore:

• Why people often react to you before you even speak
• How your closed aura impacts partners, friends, coworkers, and kids
• Why informing isn’t about asking permission, but about easing nervous systems (including your own)
• How your voice functions as a creative force — turning internal urges into external reality
• The throat conditioning many Manifestors carry after being punished or misunderstood for their impact
• What happens after the urge: the energy drop, resentment, and push to keep going
• How informing at the beginning and the end of a cycle can soften dynamics and make your life easier

If you’ve ever felt like you’re “too much,” “hard to read,” or somehow wrong for the way you move through the world, this conversation is here to offer relief, language, and a path toward more honest, less exhausting relationships — without you shrinking one bit.

This episode sits beside Manifestor Strategy: Urge, Surge, Inform & Rest. Together, they give you both the mechanics and the humanity of what it means to be a Manifestor.

If you’re a Manifestor in Human Design, you’ve likely heard that your strategy is to “inform and initiate.” But why does that matter? What does informing actually do? And how do you know when an urge is real — or when you’re about to burn out?

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The difference between an urge and a random idea
 • How to recognize the surge that gives you the energy to act
• The real purpose of informing (hint: it's not about asking permission)
• Why Manifestors struggle with sustainability and consistency
• How to prevent burnout by honoring the rest cycle
• What makes Manifestors powerful initiators in relationships and business
• How others can best support a Manifestor’s creative process

Whether you’re a Manifestor, raising one, or loving one, this episode offers the clarity and practical insight needed to live your design with more ease and less resistance.

This episode sits beside Why Informing Feels so Hard: The Relational and Nervous System Piece. Together, they give you both the mechanics and the humanity of what it means to be a Manifestor.

In this episode, I’m sharing a truth I found during an unexpected pause from social media — something that recalibrated how I think about showing up, creating, and being seen in my business.

After more than a month offline, all the pressure came rushing in:
 I should be posting.
 I should be consistent.
 I should be growing my reach.
 I should be doing more.

But as I settled back into myself — into my body and into my design — I remembered something important: my Human Design isn’t just a personal tool. It’s my marketing strategy.

As a 2/4 Emotional Generator, I’m not built for daily output or big-reach visibility. My creativity comes from quiet, my impact comes through relationships, and my clarity arrives in emotional waves. And I see this pattern in so many of my clients too — they’re trying to build businesses in ways their energy was never designed to sustain.

In this episode, I walk you through what happens when you let your design guide how you show up online, how you create, and how you connect with your audience. If you’ve ever felt behind, inconsistent, or overwhelmed by social media, this episode will feel like a deep exhale.

When my water well recently collapsed, it cracked open far more than a plumbing problem ;) What followed was a deep initiation into money, safety, lineage, nervous system rewiring, and the lifelong pattern of carrying too much.

In this episode, I share the ceremony I didn’t sign up for — the one that arrived disguised as invoices, mud, and fear. Through the Ten of Wands and Eight of Cups reversed, a 9-year cycle closing, retirement savings withdrawals, a 350-ft well, and three sick kids, I reveal how life guided me into the truth:

You can put it down and still be safe.

This episode is a blend of personal storytelling, collective reflection, metaphor, and guided meditation — an invitation to release the belief that safety comes from effort and to return to deeper flow.

Fast. Fluid. Free.
If you’re a Manifesting Generator, you already know that life doesn’t move in straight lines—and neither do you.

In this episode, we explore how the strategy of response moves through you differently than it does for Generators: faster, more iterative, more alive. You’ll learn:
✨ Why “responding” doesn’t mean slowing down or waiting to be chosen
✨ How to tell the difference between acting from inspiration vs. alignment
✨ Why skipping steps and pivoting isn’t failure—it’s calibration
✨ How frustration and anger are actually your allies
✨ What “Respond first, refine later” looks like in real life

If you’ve ever wondered why you start things fast, change direction often, or lose energy mid-project—this one’s for you.

Listen now and learn how to move at your natural speed, without losing your connection to what’s real.

Generator: You don’t have to chase what’s meant for you — life is already inviting you.

In this episode, I unpack the Generator strategy of response—what it really means, how to recognize it in daily life, and why your sacral centre is the motor that powers everything you create.

You’ll learn how to recognize your body’s yes and no, why open-ended questions can feel like pressure instead of possibility, and how responding brings more flow, vitality, and satisfaction into your life.

✨ Key themes:

• The difference between forcing and responding
• How the sacral center guides your energy
• Why responding creates more ease, abundance, and pleasure
• How to reframe “waiting” as magnetic readiness

If you’re a Projector, you’ve probably felt this: one person recognizes your brilliance and invites you in, but then the group, the team, or the family doesn’t fully see you. Suddenly the recognition fades, and you’re left questioning whether the invitation was ever real.

In this episode, we explore:
 ✨ Why group dynamics can feel sticky for Projectors
 ✨ What it means when recognition doesn’t extend to everyone
 ✨ How to protect your energy when buy-in is missing
 ✨ The difference between shining and proving
 ✨ How to step back gracefully when your insight isn’t landing

Projectors, this is your reminder: recognition is alive. It shifts. And you don’t have to chase the room. The rooms that are ready will find you.

"You don’t wait to shine—you shine to get invited."

Projectors, if you’ve ever felt confused by your strategy—“Wait for the invitation”—this one’s for you. Too often, waiting gets misunderstood as hiding, shrinking, or second-guessing your brilliance. But that’s not what you’re here for.

In this episode, we’ll explore:
 ✨ What you don’t need an invitation for (and why it matters)
✨ The difference between personal vs non-personal guidance
✨ Why the invitation protects you and the other person
✨ How to create space for recognition without forcing
✨ Tangible examples of living your strategy in real life

This is your reminder: you don’t have to wait to shine. You shine first—and the right invitations will follow.

In this episode, we open the door to the Strategy Series and explore what Human Design Strategy really means — not as another rulebook, but as the path of least resistance.

If you’ve ever felt stuck searching, studying, or trying to “figure it out” with your mind, this conversation will remind you of something radical: you already are it. Clarity, direction, and flow live in your body — always.

Together we’ll look at how the mind vs. the body shapes our choices, how strategy shows up in real life (business, relationships, creativity), and why trusting your body is the most practical way back to alignment.

✨ Strategy isn’t about waiting passively. It’s about letting your energy meet life. And when your body leads, life flows.

In this episode of Designed for More, I share a raw transmission sparked by a deep wave in my own life and marriage.

We often say we’re devoted to thriving, abundance, intimacy… but what are we actually available for? What unconscious energetic contracts are we living inside — agreements we never consciously chose?

This is an invitation to pause, breathe, and get honest:
 ✨ What are you no longer available for?
 ✨ What are you truly devoted to?

I share personal stories, Human Design insights, and a practice to help you realign your availability with your devotion — so that life can meet you where you really are.

 💌 Want more support? 👉 Download the guided meditation: Rewriting Your Availability. This meditation and companion guide will support you to:

• Release the energetic contracts you’re no longer available for
• Name and anchor what you’re truly devoted to
• Align your body and breath with your new availability

Suggested: find a quiet space, light a candle, and let yourself fully receive.

Because you are allowed to rewrite the terms of your life.
Not from force. Not from guilt.
But from devotion to what you are here to live.
