Reflectors make up just 1% of the population, the rarest and most mysterious of all Human Design types.

In this episode of The Unlearning Podcast, we explore what it means to live as a Reflector: the mirrors of humanity.

Learn why their openness is both a gift and a challenge, how environment shapes their wellbeing, and how we can all embody the quiet, powerful wisdom they carry.

In this episode, we’re exploring the world of the Projector, the visionaries, guides, and energy seers of the Human Design system.
Whether you are a Projector or you love one, this conversation will give you a whole new level of understanding for how they’re meant to move through life, and why rest, recognition, and right invitations aren’t luxuries… they’re requirements.

We’ll talk about how Projectors are wired to see patterns that others miss, what leads them into burnout and self-doubt, and how they can reclaim their magic by slowing down, trusting their timing, and letting their wisdom be seen.

Ever feel like you’re too much and not enough all at once?
Like your energy doesn’t quite fit the mold everyone else seems to operate from?

In this episode, I kick off a brand-new series exploring Human Design — starting with my own energy type: the Manifestor (which makes up roughly 9% of the population).

I unpacks what Human Design actually is, where it came from, and how to find your own chart, but more importantly, I share how learning my design changed everything:
💭 From second-guessing my ideas to finally trusting my creative bursts⚡ From pushing through burnout to embracing rest and cycles💔 From feeling like an outsider to understanding why I was never meant to fit in

This episode is an invitation to stop trying to fix yourself , and start remembering how you were designed to move through the world.

And if you’re ready to dive deeper, I offer personalized Human Design readings to help you understand your unique blueprint, your energy type, and how to live in full alignment.
