Real Human Design Stories

In this special solo episode of Real Human Design Stories,

I talk about the challenges of letting go, embracing rest, and learning to recognize ourselves beyond the validation of others. After a season of deep engagement and excitement from presenting at two recent Human Design conferences, I came home to a surprising inner request—to simply rest.

In this episode, I explore what it means to hold radical self-trust during times of rest and to trust that our worth isn’t dependent on constant action.

So, if you’ve been feeling the pressure to keep up, stay visible, or “push through” when your body is calling for a break, join me as we unpack the importance of tuning in and trusting ourselves.
