This week’s question:
What is your advice on creating boundaries in how frequently I can and should be expected to work and setting boundaries on where professionalism and friendship is appropriate in manager-employee conversations? I find that I'm the only one in the workplace who finds that the line is constantly being crossed from professionalism to far too personal in situations where it should definitely stay professional.

This week’s question:
I've heard Ellen mention before that having a fuck off-fund is essential, and I often cringe internally when I hear her say it. What's the advice if you don't have the fuck off fund and need to figure out where to go next?
I pulled out of a stressful job in the NHS with the aim of starting a less stressful one. I’m still in the NHS three days a week, and use the other two days a week to pursue something more in line with my dreams. I'm now really enjoying my new part-time job, though it's a daily three hour commute, helping out on a community project two days a month, but I’m still none the wiser about how to pursue my dream.
I'm thinking of returning to full-time work, negotiating, working from home for the other two days, and pursuing the side hustle dream on weekends and evenings since my nonexistent funds have run dry. I'm asking for a cosmic sign and a sisterly breakdown of the situation. Am I on the right path right now?

This week’s question:
I'm a 1/3 sacral generator, who has more recently tapped into my human design after being a pretty cynical non-cosmic person for most of my life, and it’s been working well for me so far.
I have somebody in my life who I love dearly, who is a 6/2 projector, very not cosmic at all. They are a very feet on this earth, rational science-based person. I would love some tips from you about how to help this person rediscover a little bit of magic and joy, and work in a way that really suits them following their human design. They won’t be open to learning about human design, so I’d like to know how to approach the subject subtly and guide them where I can.

This week’s question:
The next stage of my work life is very scary for me and unusual in my bubble of friends who are on the corporate side, so everything feels scary. I keep losing my confidence and feeling like it looks wrong from the outside. Do you have any advice on staying in my lane when I feel very influenced by the outside world?

This week’s question:
I have a full-time corporate job and have been running my creative well-being business for four years alongside it. I feel like it's got the potential to be something really special and allow me to live the lifestyle I want, but I don’t have the space I need for the inspiration to come. I'm also trying to understand how I can run a business sustainably because I don't want to be working all the time and in a constant cycle of burnout. What would you suggest for me in this transitionary time?

Is it possible to be spiritually fulfilled and financially successful, or will one inevitably cancel out the other?
Join Ellen and Mads on I'll Ask My Sister as they tackle this question with their blend of cosmic insight and corporate savvy. They also explore how to create a true work-life balance, how to ride the waves of your emotions, and how human design can help parents better understand their children. Enjoy!
This week’s affirmation: Full Moon - Something in your life is coming to a head or a turning point, so tune into your emotions to see what they’re telling you. The odds are in your favour as this is a positive card, but you may need to work harder than usual to keep cool as events unfold
This week’s key takeaways:
This week's listener question: Is life about accumulating wealth or developing our spirituality?
Although many religions and societies push the idea that purity and spirituality can only be achieved by rejecting material wealth, Ellen argues that it’s possible to pursue both at the same time. In fact, financial stability can make it easier to pursue your spiritual goals and help other people!
Mads adds that everyone’s path is different, so it’s important to reflect on your motivations and values to find the right one. She also talks about the balance between radicalism and pragmatism, and working within the current capitalist framework while striving for change. Engaging with the system does not mean endorsing its flaws; rather, it’s about using one's position within the system to create positive change.

It’s hard to find balance in the hustle of daily life, and even harder to feel focused with some many things demanding your attention.
But it is possible!
In today’s episode of I’ll Ask My Sister, Ellen and Mads share their strategies for staying grounded amidst the chaos. The conversation also flows into personal growth, emotional well-being, and balancing work demands with parenting. Like always you can expect lots of practical advice and cosmic wisdom.
This week’s affirmation: Full Moon in Sagittarius – Life is an adventure and there’s a huge world to see beyond our backyard. Take time to explore and focus on the big picture rather than the little details.
This week's listener question: How do I better focus on whatever it is that I'm doing, be that parenting or working, rather than my head going every which way all the time?

Have you ever found yourself hiding your true self for fear of being seen as cringe? Or perhaps you're struggling to find the balance between pursuing your passions and making a living.
Mads and Ellen tackle these questions in today’s episode of I'll Ask My Sister. They also discuss energy policing, human design motivations, karaoke insights, and self-worth. Their conversation is packed with honest reflections and practical advice, so sit back and enjoy!
Listener Question:
This week’s question comes from someone who needs advice on determining which of their interests and skills should be pursued for profit and which should remain as sources of pleasure.
Ellen suggests reflecting on yourself to determine if monetising a passion could make it less enjoyable. Mads advises focusing on momentum and allowing interests to grow without the immediate pressure of financial returns. They both agree that the key is to find the intersection between what one loves, is good at, can be paid for, and what the world needs.
Mads then brings up the human design framework, explaining that a better understanding of our motivations will make it easier to align our personal and professional lives. She also advises the listener to follow what brings them joy and satisfaction, even if it means facing societal judgments or feeling "cringe."

Affirmation: You can have what you want, including material things, but first you must believe in yourself.

anecdotes, and sisterly wisdom. Ellen and Mads kick off, like always, by sharing the cosmic and the corporate in their last week.
As the conversation continues, they talk about the internalised messages and societal pressure that can make it difficult to celebrate our achievements. Despite the impulse to downplay, it’s important to acknowledge and enjoy our accomplishments without attaching them to further success.
There’s an extra dose of cosmic in this episode thanks to the recent astrological blue moon, which is when two full moons occur during the same sign, and to celebrate Mads and Ellen are also doubling up with two listener questions!
Listener Question 1
Ellen brings up that someone asking you for help suggests that you’re really capable in that area. If jealousy comes up, it might be because you aren’t using your gifts in the way you’d like to. Mads shares her experience of launching others toward their goals but feeling left behind. It was only when she used those feelings as a guide that she was able to find the path that made her happy.
Listener Question 2
Ellen admits she struggles with the idea of surrendering, and that childbirth is the only time she’s actually experienced it. Even after that experience, she finds it difficult to cultivate the immense trust surrender requires, and the idea of fully losing control is nerve-wracking.
In contrast, Mads views surrender as a beautiful, freeing process. She makes a distinction between surrendering due to exhaustion and the more powerful intentional surrender that flows with life’s momentum.
Key Takeaways:
Ask the Cards:
From the Moonology Oracle deck, we drew the Full Moon in Scorpio card.
Affirmation: It’s time to release negativity, and move from living fearfully to living joyfully.
