TPL028 – How to Manifest as a Projector

May 29, 2019 00:30 - 43 minutes - 47.7 MB

Wondering how in the world to manifest things – ANYthing – as a Human Design projector? If you’ve tried to follow “traditional” manifestation formulas, you’ve likely been left feeling frustrated (or ashamed) that they don’t work for you.  I’ve got news for you. It’s not you. It’s the formula that has problems. As a projector, you need your own set of steps to be successful, and that’s what we’re talking about in this episode.  Ready to start working WITH your energy? Then join the Proje...

28. How to Manifest as a Projector

May 29, 2019 00:30 - 43 minutes - 47.7 MB

"Manifesting" is a super big catchword these days, especially with the more esoteric crowd. And I have nothing against manifesting. In fact, I quite enjoy it when and if the strategies + steps I'm given work with my Human Design type. Unfortunately, a lot of the time we're given manifesting steps that benefit Human Design Manifestors. (Which - no surprise there. Many of us were raised thinking we were manifestors.) So it should come as no surprise that the normal manifesting steps don't ...

27. The 5 Stages of Projector Acceptance

May 22, 2019 00:30 - 43 minutes - 47 MB

Finding out your a Human Design Projector is a huge deal. It's life-changing. It can be exciting, difficult, frustrating, or all of the above. For many of us, finding out we're a projector is a shock, but after we start thinking about it, we realize that we are projectors. However, the more we learn about what it is to be a Human Design Projector, the more questions we have. And then we discover that our strategy is to wait for the invitation...and that can leave us feeling helpless and ...

TPL027 – 5 Stages of Projector Acceptance

May 22, 2019 00:30 - 43 minutes - 47 MB

Finding out that you’re a Human Design projector can be…less than exciting. In fact, it can be pretty traumatic. In my experience, there are 5 stages that people move through while coming to terms with what it means to be a projector.  I’ll walk you through all 5 stages, give you my personal experience with each one, and then talk about how we all move through these stages, even after we’ve become comfortable with our type.  Links mentioned in this episode: Schedule a Human Design Rea...

25. Understanding Your Not-Self

May 08, 2019 00:30 - 59 minutes - 62.2 MB

You may have heard me mention the "Not-Self" before. But I've never really gone into what it is. That's where this episode comes in. The not-self is a term we use in Human Design when the mind falsely identifies us as something we're not. (So a projector thinking (and acting like) they're a hard worker - or that they're a worker bee - is the not-self. Because projectors aren't here to work hard all the time. Being a hard worker occasionally is fine. But being a hard worker all day every ...

TPL025 – Understanding Your Not-Self

May 08, 2019 00:30 - 59 minutes - 62.2 MB

We’re diving into the not-self themes of Human Design. We’ll talk about what the not-self is, when it shows up, and how to handle it when it does.  We’ll also dive into the not-self themes for each Human Design type and for each of the nine centers.  (Note: I’ve included the links to the books I mentioned in the episode but couldn’t remember what they were called.)   Links mentioned in this episode: Books I couldn’t remember:  The Untethered Soul by Michael Singer The Power ...

TPL 023 – How to Handle Human Design Pressure Centers

April 24, 2019 00:30 - 51 minutes - 54.3 MB

Feeling under pressure? It’s possible that you’re feeling it from one of the two Human Design pressure centers. In this episode, we’ll talk about which two centers could be putting pressure on you, the kind of pressure to expect, and how to handle it.  Give this episode a listen if you:  Find yourself constantly feeling like you HAVE to answer all the questions.  Or feel like you don’t deserve to rest…despite working a full 8-hour day.   Links mentioned in this episode: Schedule...

Pressure! Pushing down on me. Pressing down on you... And likely that pressure is really intense if you have undefined Human Design pressure centers. Remember how we talked about the Human Design energy centers in Episodes 007 and 008? We're diving into two very important (and potentially very frustrating) centers: The head center and the root center. These two centers are pressure centers, which means that they put a lot of pressure on you in their own unique way. Do you constantly ...

TPL 021 – 7 Biz Strategies That Don’t Work for Projectors

April 10, 2019 00:30 - 46 minutes - 50.1 MB

There are a lot of well-intentioned business strategies floating around in the online business world. However, you know what they say about good intentions… Besides, most of the “accepted strategies” don’t take into account your human design type, so if you’re a projector, you’ve likely been following strategies that don’t work with your energy.  In fact, it’s highly likely you’ve been using strategies that work AGAINST your energy.

19. Understanding Channels and Their Energy

March 27, 2019 00:30 - 43 minutes - 47.2 MB

You know those red, black, or red-and-black lines that connect one energy center to another in your Human Design chart? Those are channels, and that's the focus of our episode. Channels in Human Design create connectivity in the chart as a whole. And they each have their own unique themes, challenges, and modes of expression. They're a very important (but more detailed) look at your energy. You can tell a lot about your channel by where it's positioned in your chart and what centers it c...

17. How + Why to Decondition Yourself

March 13, 2019 00:00 - 49 minutes - 53.2 MB

Deconditioning is a big deal in Human Design. In fact, the rule of thumb in the Human Design world is that it takes 7 years of consistent deconditioning before you can really, truly begin living out your design and living in alignment with your energy. So what is deconditioning? It's basically unlearning the behaviors, habits, and cultural norms that don't align with your energy. Everyone has at least some deconditioning to do, and this episode will walk you through how to get started unle...

TPL 015 – The 6 Lines of Human Design Profiles

February 13, 2019 00:30 - 50 minutes - 53.8 MB

We’re getting into human design profiles in this episode. I’ll chat about what your human design profile is and why it matters.

15. The 6 Lines of Human Design Profiles

February 13, 2019 00:30 - 50 minutes - 53.8 MB

Human Design profiles give you a very important look at how you live out your purpose (a.k.a. your Incarnation Cross). Your profile contains the energy that gives you insights as to how your energy functions in this world. It adds to your strategy so that you have a refined understanding. Yes, you're a projector, so you need to wait for an invitation. But if you're a 1/3 Investigator-Martyr profile (like me), then you go through life wanting to know all the things and then test out all the...

14. Understanding Human Design Authorities

February 06, 2019 00:30 - 42 minutes - 46 MB

In Human Design, your authority is the way you make decisions, and it's all about listening to your energy, not your mind. The mind has no place in Human Design when it comes to deciding something. However, we're often trained to "think things through" or to "reason things out" before we act. That works for...no one. Because no one in the Human Design system has a "Mind Authority". Yes, there are such things as mental projectors - but even they don't have an authority where they get to thi...

13. How to Read a Human Design Chart

January 30, 2019 00:30 - 46 minutes - 50.3 MB

Listening to me talk about Human Design and walking you through all the energy centers in the system is great. But you know what's even better? Being able to read and understand your own Human Design chart! (Again, it's life-changing). Because once you learn how to read your chart, you can read other people's - like your spouse's or your kids' or your siblings'...and then everything about your relationship begins to make sense!
