The transits are back. After a month off, I'm joined again by Yvette for the Human Design transits and Lauren for the astrology, and October 2026 is a big one. Coming out of eclipse season, this month is all about slowing down, getting out of your head and into your body, and asking what you actually want to be devoted to.
We get into the splenic gates lighting up one after another (instinct, intuition and evolution), the powerful manifestation window from the 9th to the 14th when almost the whole bodygraph is switched on, the Libra new moon, Venus retrograde in Scorpio and what it stirs up around money, fear and what you're afraid to lose, Mars moving into Leo, and the Mercury retrograde landing late in the month. If you take one thing from this episode: slow down, reflect, and let the old stuff go.

This is episode two of the Money and Human Design series, and today is all about your Human Design Strategy, the most powerful and most overlooked key to making money in alignment with who you are. You've been taught to go outside yourself for the right money strategy, to copy the expert, the mentor, the guru. The truth is the strategy you're looking for is already inside you, and in Human Design it's literally called your strategy.
I break down what strategy actually is, why your mind keeps talking you out of following it, and exactly how it works for each type: initiate and inform for Manifestors, respond for Generators, respond and inform for Manifesting Generators, wait for the invitation for Projectors, and wait a lunar cycle for Reflectors. Strategy and authority are your two golden bullets, and this episode is where you learn to read the money map no one ever taught you to read.

Human Design and AI came together for me in this conversation with my friend Matthew James Bailey, who has worked in AI since 1996, wrote a playbook on ethics for AI, and spent time in ICU this year fighting for his life. We get into what AI can and can't do for your inner world, why Matthew calls it an artificial intellect, and what happened when he took Maggie for a test drive and asked her about his dream clients.
This one is for you if you use AI in your business and feel uneasy about how much power people are handing over to it. You'll hear why I see your Strategy and Authority as your built-in truth detector in a noisy world, what Matthew thinks the tech giants have forgotten, and a simple practice he shares to help you feel at home in yourself again.
What You'll Learn:
- Why Matthew calls AI an artificial intellect, and what that means for how much you trust it
- How your Human Design Strategy and Authority help you stay sovereign when everyone else hands their power to tech
- What Matthew found when he tested Maggie AI on his dream client
- Why Matthew believes ethics come down to energy and vibration, and whether people choose AI tools based on ethics
- The hero's journey in reverse, and why an awakening still comes with lessons to learn

This is the start of my brand new series on money and Human Design, two of my all-time favourite things. If you've ever wondered why the money strategies everyone else swears by never quite work for you, this episode is your answer. The way you're designed to make money is specific to your Human Design type, and once you understand your own energy you stop forcing someone else's model and start magnetising what's already yours.
In this first episode we stay at the macro level: your type. I walk through how money comes differently to Manifestors, Generators, Manifesting Generators, Projectors and Reflectors, why gate 55 holds the key to money and energy, and how I made $2 million before I ever built a funnel by following my design instead of the rulebook. This is the foundation for the whole series, so start here.
What You'll Learn:
- Why there's no one-size-fits-all money strategy, and how your Human Design type changes the way money actually comes to you
- How each of the five types becomes magnetic to money (and what blocks each one)
- What gate 55 teaches about authenticity, energy and abundance
- How to use your strategy, signature and not-self theme as real-time money indicators
- The shift from doing to receiving, and why now is the time for it
Chapters:
00:00 - Dialling into authenticity for abundance and freedom
00:17 - The money and Human Design series begins
02:50 - What two months off taught me about receiving (and the 1.5M downloads we'd been missing)
06:07 - Why I finally committed to teaching money
06:56 - How I made $2 million before I ever built a funnel
08:29 - Gate 55: authenticity is the real money magnet
10:51 - Money and your Type (the macro level)
12:21 - Manifestors and money
14:04 - Generators and Manifesting Generators and money
17:20 - Projectors and money
19:25 - Reflectors and money
21:24 - Using strategy, signature and not-self theme as money indicators
24:31 - You are the authority

In today's episode I'm joined by Clara Schroeder, ecotherapist and author of Re-Nature, for a conversation about nature, the nervous system, and why time outdoors does far more than clear your head.
Clara calls it the more than human world, and she takes us through what happens in the brain when we're in it. We get into the neuroscience of fractal patterns and why the predictability of a tree canopy or a wave settles the amygdala, the difference between exercising outdoors and relating to nature, and how she's seen nature connection ease loneliness, low mood and an overstimulated nervous system. She shares her own path through clinical depression and her recovery from a traumatic brain injury, plus the distinction she draws between physiological burnout and the ecological kind, the sort that comes from forgetting where we come from.
We also talk horses as healers, flow state, and the small daily practices that bring nature in when you live in a city: a nature altar, a colour walk, a moment of presence with your morning cup of tea.
If you've done all the inner work and still feel wired and disconnected from yourself, this is your reset.
I trust you will get what you need from this episode, and make sure you come let me know how it resonated with you on instagram @the_human_design_coach
Big love,

In today's episode I'm sitting down with a fellow Aussie, Cameron Branch, host of The Hard Yarns Podcast, for a wide-ranging conversation about aliens, disclosure, past lives and what it takes to trust your own inner knowing in a very noisy world. Cameron shares his take on what he believes is coming with contact and disclosure, and where he reckons the real deception sits. Then, live on air, I read his Human Design, because underneath the big topic runs a much simpler thread we keep returning to: your authentic self is the answer.
As a Manifesting Generator with sacral authority, Cameron is built to lead with his gut instead of his mind, and his gate of opinion means he is here to share what he thinks without needing to be right. We get into how you discern truth when the news, social media and even well-meaning experts are all fighting for your attention, why going first gives other people permission to do the same, and what it looks like to come back to your own authority rather than handing it away.
I trust you will get what you need from this episode, and make sure you come let me know how it resonated with you on instagram @the_human_design_coach

In today's episode, I coach Rachael, who runs a catering business with her husband that looks good on paper but was built through force, and now finds herself in functional burnout with one foot in it and one foot in something of her own.
Rachael is a 5/1 Emotional Generator.
We get into the real reason she can't hand anything over, the story that quality drops the moment she delegates, and why that is an identity belief, not the truth. We get into building the systems that let her opt out in small steps, then go deeper into her largely unconscious chart, why forcing mental clarity about how her body feels will never work, and how to rebuild trust with her sacral when it has been running on empty.

In today's episode, Jeff and Clayton from FLFE are back, and we get into why so many of us feel like everything has gone hard, sticky and heavy right now. Their answer is a relief: consciousness is rising, and when it rises, it gets tested. The solar system, the planet and this part of the galaxy are all climbing, which is exactly why you might feel stuck on a plateau, or like the pressure has quietly cranked up. It is not a sign you are off track. It is a sign you are right on it.
We talk about trusting your inner authority when you can no longer tell what is real, setting smaller goals and going back to basics, and getting brutally honest with your own shadow while still softening on yourself. Then we turn to AI from a consciousness perspective: what it reflects back about us, where it genuinely helps, where it can never replace a human, and why growth through joy might matter more now than any amount of hard work.

In today's episode, I coach Kerrie, a leadership coach who can feel a bigger business forming, one that goes beyond one-to-one work to change how organisations lead, without burning herself out to build it.
Kerrie is a 4/6 Emotional Manifestor.
We get into why her design makes her the initiator and the face, the one who builds the frameworks and the IP and then brings others in to execute, rather than doing everything herself. We look at the real question underneath the fear, not "do I need a team" but "what do I need right now," and why the right people show up once the work exists. And why she keeps waiting for a sign to move, when the knowing is already hers.
If you have ever felt a bigger vision pulling at you and stalled because you didn't yet have the team, the proof or the permission to begin, this one is for you.

In today's episode I'm joined by Yvette Mayer (HD Transits Expert) and Lauren Hansen (Resident Astrologer) for the August energy update, and the whole month turns on one question: who are you building it with? In Human Design we move out of the throat-centre gates and into the quarter of duality, so the focus shifts off what you're making and onto your relationships. In astrology it lands from the same direction, with Venus moving home into Libra and Mars dropping into Cancer. It's a relational, reflective and at times emotional month, with two eclipses reshaping who's in your corner. The gates and dates we cover are listed below, so you can check them against your own chart.
