Our spotlight episodes explore the core principles and concepts of Human Design. They aim to provide grounding for newcomers to the system and a reminder of what is simple and essential for those who have gone deep into the details.

In this episode, we explore what it truly means to “run an experiment.” We discuss shifting from belief to direct observation, applying Strategy and Authority practically, and learning through comparison, trying something, returning to baseline, and observing what actually changes. We also examine common pitfalls, such as going to extremes, moving too fast, and turning the chart into an identity. Ultimately, experimentation is a personal process of gaining clarity, making honest adjustments, and allowing understanding to develop through lived experience.
