The Art of Slowing Down

In this week's episode I had the pleasure of speaking with Etai Nahary, a communications coach and disability advocate with a fascinating background in languages, literature, and psychology.

Key points we discussed:

1. The power of language in shaping our reality and perceptions, especially around disability and inclusivity.

2. Etai's perspective on reframing the concept of "disabled" and "able-bodied" to "disabled" and "not yet disabled."

3. The importance of normalizing conversations about disability and human fragility.

4. How Human Design and Gene Keys can be used as tools for self-understanding and empowerment, without becoming limiting.

5. The danger of over-identifying with labels or categories, whether in Human Design or other aspects of life.

6. The concept of "both/and" thinking and holding seemingly contradictory truths simultaneously.

7. The value of changing our personal narratives to feel better in the present moment.

Etai shared his journey of creating "Etai's Corner" as a space to use his diverse skills and experiences to help others. His insightful perspective on disability, language, and personal growth offers a fresh way of looking at how we categorize and understand ourselves and others.

Remember, as Etai beautifully put it: "Change your story, change your life." Focus on finding a better-feeling story in this moment, because that's all we truly have.

You can find Etai on YouTube and Instagram at "Etai's Corner":

About Etai:

Etai is insatiably curious, with a passion for serving others, understanding, and being understood by the world around him. His most recent fascinations include everything Human Design and Gene Keys. He holds three degrees; a B.A. in German-Jewish History from The University of Connecticut, an M.A. in Comparative Literary and Cultural Studies with a concentration in Post-Holocaust Literature (also from UCONN) and an M.A. in Counseling Psychology with a concentration in Transpersonal Psychology from John F. Kennedy University. You will often hear Etai say that he plays with languages. He currently plays in the sandbox of anywhere between eight to ten languages with varying degrees of success. Etai’s Corner is dedicated to building bridges and fostering authentic connections worldwide.

This week I had the pleasure of speaking with Raquel Sands, a bilingual career coach who helps people find fulfillment in their work lives. We dove deep into our shared experiences with Human Design, particularly the shift from the tropical to the true sidereal (cosmic) version.

Key points we discussed:

1. Raquel's journey from identifying as a Projector in tropical Human Design to discovering she's a Manifesting Generator in cosmic Human Design.

2. The importance of trusting your intuition when a system or tool doesn't fully resonate with you.

3. How cosmic Human Design provided both of us with a sense of alignment and recognition that we hadn't fully experienced before.

4. The dangers of rigidly adhering to any system, including Human Design, and the importance of using these tools for empowerment rather than limitation.

5. The value of experimenting and "throwing spaghetti at the wall" in both career development and personal growth.

6. Raquel's advice for listeners: Take 5 minutes each day to check in with yourself, away from distractions.

We also touched on the broader implications of personality typing systems and the importance of remaining open-minded as we explore tools for self-discovery.

Remember, whether you're exploring Human Design, Astrology, or any other system, the most important thing is to trust your inner wisdom. These tools are meant to confirm what you already know about yourself, not to put you in a box or limit your potential.

If you're curious about exploring cosmic Human Design or want to learn more about finding fulfillment in your career, you can find Raquel at https://miriamraquelsands.com/ or listen to her podcast The Calm Balm.

Raquel about herself:

I am a Bilingual Career + business coach supporting purpose-driven professionals in LATAM and North America who feel lost/tired/unsure about their careers and want to realize their visions. As a 1st generation Salvadorean-American and a professional job hopper for over 10 years, I understand the differences between corporate and identity cultures and how to use spirituality (yoga) as a way to bridge the gap.

Welcome to day four of our special mini-series on Practical Success Tips for Introverted and Highly Empathic Entrepreneurs. Today, we're diving into two interconnected concepts that can be game-changers for your business: slowing down and embracing the "less is more" philosophy.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• Why slowing down is crucial, especially when you feel pressured to take action

Key takeaway: Slowing down and embracing "less is more" can lead to more authentic, impactful content and a more sustainable business approach for introverts and empaths.

Action steps:

1. Reflect on when you're taking action from pressure and how it feels

2. Identify core messages you can share repeatedly in different ways

Welcome to day three of our special mini-series on Practical Success Tips for Introverted and Highly Empathic Entrepreneurs. Today, we're diving into a powerful strategy that can truly set you apart: Owning your story and embracing authenticity.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• Why sharing your personal story is more powerful than focusing solely on your "ideal client"

• How your journey can naturally attract clients who resonate with your experiences

• The importance of being real and relatable in your content

• Why you don't need to have an extreme "rags to riches" story to be impactful

• How to start incorporating snippets of your story into your content

• Why authenticity is considered the highest frequency energy (even higher than love!)

Key takeaway: Your unique story and authentic self are your greatest assets in attracting aligned clients and making a genuine impact.

Action step: Reflect on a specific moment in your journey that was transformative for you. How can you share this authentically with your audience?

Remember: Being authentic may repel some people, and that's okay! It creates space for those who truly resonate with you and your message.

I'd love to hear from you! What's one thing from your story that you feel called to share more authentically?

Welcome to day two of our special mini-series on Practical Success Tips for Introverted and Highly Empathic Entrepreneurs. Today, we're tackling a crucial aspect of business growth: consistency in showing up and creating content.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• Why consistency is non-negotiable for business success, even for introverts (and no matter what your Human Design Type is)

• Introvert-friendly ways to create content consistently (podcasting, writing, etc.)

• The importance of aligning your content creation with your natural preferences

• How to overcome resistance and show up even when you don't feel like it

• The power of connecting with your 'why' and mission to fuel consistency

• Why authenticity in your content attracts your ideal audience or 'soul fractal'

• The role of consistency in building trust and reliability with your audience

Key takeaway: Consistency doesn't mean daily content or forcing yourself into uncomfortable methods. It's about finding a sustainable rhythm and format that aligns with your introverted nature while still allowing you to show up regularly for your audience.

Remember, start small and build up gradually. It's okay to experiment with different formats and frequencies until you find what works best for you.

Action step: Reflect on one way you can commit to showing up consistently that feels good to you. What format resonates most with your energy?

P.S. If you're looking for support and accountability in your consistency journey, check out the Conscious Money Creators membership. Enrollment is open until October 3rd! https://courses.analenafuchs.com/cmc

In this episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with David Kahn, a fellow explorer of True Sidereal Astrology and Cosmic Human Design & Gene Keys. We dove deep into the evolving world of human design, astrology, and self-discovery. This conversation was a breath of fresh air, reminding us that these systems are tools for growth, not rigid boxes to confine ourselves in.

Key takeaways:

This conversation left me feeling inspired and reminded me why I love exploring these topics. It's not about finding the "right" system, but about using these tools to deepen our self-understanding and grow.

Remember, we're all on our own unique journeys. Whether you resonate with tropical or true sidereal, Human Design or Astrology, the most important thing is that it helps you trust yourself more deeply.

I'm thrilled to share this incredible conversation with Bruno Perales, a fellow Human Design enthusiast who's on a remarkable journey of self-discovery and transformation.

In this episode, we dive deep into:

Key takeaways:

I love how Bruno emphasizes the importance of taking action and facing our fears, rather than getting stuck in endless analysis. His journey from living with his parents to becoming a father himself in such a short time is truly inspiring!

Remember, Human Design and other tools are here to help us trust ourselves more, not to become another set of rules to follow blindly. Let's use these insights to empower ourselves and face our fears head-on.

I can't wait to hear how this episode inspires you to embrace your authentic self and take courageous steps in your own journey!

About Bruno:

Bruno was born in Barcelona, Spain, the youngest of eight children. Raised to fit into his family's expectations, he studied Industrial Engineering and Economics, learning several languages in preparation for a diplomatic career. His path was largely influenced by his father, born in 1940, who has battled numerous health issues.

In 2021, during a practical internship in Munich, Germany, for his Master's degree, he experienced a pivotal moment. The distance from his family allowed him, for the first time, to introspect and realize he had strayed far from his true essence. This realization led to eating disorders and severe depression.

Seeking self-discovery, he turned to various tools such as Enneagram, morphopsychology, numerology, Human Design, and Gene Keys. These helped him realign with his core self, prompting him to pursue his own path despite lack of family support.

He ventured into modeling, public speaking, and social media. Recently, he found his twin flame, and they plan to move to Costa Rica in October, expecting their first child in January 2025. He sees himself as an example that aligning with one's true self can lead to a magical unfolding of life, even when it seems paradoxical to his Human Design profile.
