Hi y'all- Kelly here. In the last NEW 'Velvet' episode this year, I felt like I needed to tap into one of my biggest walls/fears- solo episodes. If you have listened to the podcast this year, you know my word of the year was 'DARE,' so it only felt appropriate to face something I feel scared of. Not saying this is a rational fear, but sometimes we just gotta walk through it to get to the other side.
In today's episode, I talked about the one way that I've learned to actually 'nurture' my soul that will probably be a bit surprising, but it's been a massive game changer for me in how I live my life and where I find my peace. Take what you like and leave the rest!

 Kelly welcomes Master Coach and Human Behavior Specialist, Emma Dunwoody, to give listeners the foundations of Human Design. Emma describes why reconnecting with her life purpose through modalities like Human Design healed her chronic depression, panic disorder and enabled her to thrive in ways she could have never even imagined. The women discuss the difference between Human Design and other personality tests, talk compatibility via HD and Emma breaks down the first pieces of each chart to help listeners understand how Human Design just may be the guide they need to find their life's purpose. 
"When you can understand your human design chart, you understand your truth. Oftentimes when we're trying to change our lives, we're doing it the way we think we should do it. Whereas with human design, it's literally our energetic blueprint, and it flips the transformation process... You take a look at your energetic blueprint, and through that process, you can shed your conditioning and then create a mindset that supports the blueprint"
