The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let’s dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. 

In this week's episode, Jenn discusses Human Design and how it impacts our daily living. Jenn provides an overview of the five different types in Human Design and gives some resources on how to learn what your Human Design is. She then dives into a deeper understanding of each design and how it impacts different areas of our lives, from sleep to activity types. Lastly, Jenn walks through how each center in the Human Design chart, similar to the chakras, impacts each of us in terms of our health, relationships and more. This is a great introduction episode to Human Design, allowing you to understand the first level information and where you may want to dig deeper. Tune in today to learn how your Human Design is impacting your life and how to use this information as another tool for working with your body and with your personality instead of fighting it.

QUOTES: 

“If you find yourself exhausted and you’re a manifestor or certainly a reflector, even projectors too, sleeping alone can be really helpful.” - Jenn Trepeck 

“Understanding that some of these things are naturally how our energy works can lighten the load and take some pressure off our shoulders to say it’s not about judging ourselves, it's about recognizing, understanding and moving forward and saying ok here is what's going to be the better fit.” - Jenn Trepeck

“This is about you being you and following your path and your decision making strategy based on your type. Take what fits for you and ditch what doesn’t. We don't have to get stuck on the pieces that aren't making sense to us.” - Jenn Trepeck
