Exhaustion, Hustle + Burnout: What Human Design Can Teach HSPs About Fatigue


Listen Later

As highly sensitive people, we push ourselves hard to…

  • Show up for other people even if we’re worn out.
  • Be good partners, parents, employees, daughters and sons.
  • Get things done even when we really need to rest
  • Get out of our comfort zones to try new things.

We’re super conscientious, wanting to give our best to everyone and everything. To not let people down, even if it means sacrificing ourselves. 

Exhaustion and burnout are signs something needs to give. 

The messages about needing to hustle to “live the good life” have us all mixed up.

But Human Design shows us how to get back on track and how physical energy is activated. 

We each have our own unique configuration for generating energy. 

In this episode, you will learn…

  • What the 4 Human Design motor centers show us about physical energy and energy management 
  • What’s really occurring if you’re constantly feeling pressured by your to-do list and why you never feel like you get it all done
  • The surprising thing Human Design shows us about willpower 
  • How living in alignment is key to tapping into energy 
  • How, if you have open motor centers, your perceptions of your energy and what you can accomplish may depend on who you’re around
  • How to sustainably incorporate exercise and sleep into your life

We receive so much conditioning and so many messages about how we should live hard and play hard. We see how people around us race through life, rushing from one thing to the next, surviving on caffeine and skimping on sleep and we think that’s how we should manage our energy too.

My hope is that this information will give you a new understanding of yourself and your energy. And give you permission to create a life that gives you the space and time to rest and restore in the right way for you.
