What is human design and why is it relevant to today?

Each personal chart contains the code for every human story living on the planet right now. 

Our Human Design chart is not a predictive tool and it's not particularly spiritual—it’s an energy map. 

Human Design can tell you how you sleep, how you work, what’s important for you to have healthy relationships, who you are, what your purpose is, who you be, what you’re here to give back and so much more.

Listen to my previous human design episode https://maddymoon.com/human-design

There are 5 different energy types: Manifestor, Manifesting Generator, Generator, Reflector, Projector. 

Each energy type comes with different challenges and a different role that they play.

"We’re not trained to do what feels right and we don’t often follow the path that is right for our individual selves."

Why reflectors are often sad about being a reflector.

Maddy's chart is HERE for reference as Karen reads it

Maddy is a Projector and it shows in her chart that she’s definitely here to be different.

What is an incarnation cross and how does it show your life story?

"When you’re being the fullest expression of who you are, you are here to transform the way people perceive themselves."

What is a G-center?

The crucial art of pacing yourself in this fast-paced world. 

What Maddy’s chart says about food and exercise.

Why hydration is important for Maddy.

Why habits, consistency, and rhythm aren’t necessarily good for everyone.

Episode 262: Feeling like a "black sheep" in your circle of friends and/or with your family can feel incredibly painful. Maybe you dress differently than your family members; maybe you talk or sound differently; maybe you don't think as conservatively as your family; maybe your life choices have simply gone against the grain from others around you. Whatever your situation may be, it can be very painful to feel like an outcast from those around you.

In this episode, Madelyn offers us a fresh perspective on feeling like a "black sheep." She discusses her experience with feeling different from those in her family unit and how to shift your perspective to see this as a gift to your soul and to the world. You will learn how to best handle this experience so you can feel empowered and confident with those around you.

“The emotions that come up with feeling embarrassment are the emotions that you want to move through.”

Our stories from the past have created the shadows we have today.

"If you feel that you’re different from the rest of your family, trust that your soul knew what it was doing when it reincarnated into your family."

Why Madelyn often attracts people who don’t feel understood.

Learning to love yourself for being the black sheep and how to unconditionally love those people that don’t understand you.

"We need to understand that when we go down a different path than what our family is going through, they’re going through their own experience."

Remaining committed to your why will keep you in your own lane.
