    The 9 Undefined Centers as Board Members of Your Life

    • the range of expression of your undefined centers
    • how you, as the CEO, can help guide and empower these parts of yourself
    • how to begin reprogramming your centers to be more on board with what you actually want for your life (e.g. setting boundaries and recognizing your own value)
    • significance of emotional awareness and regulation
    • aligning your life with your zone of genius
    • the impact of the nine centers on individual expression and identity
    • how to address patterns that may be limiting your personal growth and success

    Projectors, Poetry, and Power: A Conversation with Chelsie Diane

    Projectors, Poetry, and Power: A Conversation with Chelsie Diane

    Chelsie is one of my biggest, most powerful expanders, and I am honored to also call her one of my dearest friends, so I am very excited to share this conversation with you today.

    From growing up on a farm in Missouri to surviving stage 4 cancer at age 12, to divorcing the father of her 3 children, to finding her calling of waking women up to their power to change the world... Chelsie lives like any moment could be the last one. And when you're around her, you can't help but want to live that way too.

    She is a celebrated poet, author of the best-selling book Poems and Peonies, and teacher inside her wildly popular membership, Poems and Power.

    This very candid conversation gives a real intimate peek into the real Chelsie, underneath the public persona and projections. She is a 5/2 splenic Projector and we dive into the implications of her Human Design in her work & public life. We also discuss things like:

    • the Projector advice that drives her mad
    • the 5th line projection field 
    • why she's felt depressed in the past, and why she hasn't felt that way in a long time
    • growing a successful business as a Projector
    • what rest means (and doesn't mean) to her
    • the real reason behind burn out
    • splenic authority and what wisdom in the body actually feels like 
    • how she helps women find their own magic
    • and so. much. more.

    Shadows & Superpowers of the Creative Visionary Entrepreneur

    Shadows & Superpowers of the Creative Visionary Entrepreneur

    Lately it's become abundantly clear that I am here to speak to other creative souls and entrepreneurial spirits. The artists, the innovators, the inventors. The healers and mystics and guides. I realized this when I started accepting these parts of myself and their shadows. When I finally started wondering if maybe I don't actually have to fix or change anything about myself. That all the parts of me, including the darker or less desirable parts, the parts I've fought to keep hidden, are welcome in my life. And I can choose when & how to let them feel seen and expressed, instead of having them overtake my life completely.

    In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly what I mean. What quirks and superpowers as well as shadows that we, as creative souls, tend to share. How those parts of you can be a crux or a strength, and it's is entirely up to you which. I'm going to provide a perspective shift, as well as some homework to help you integrate these parts of yourself so that you can start coming out of hiding and shine as bright as you know with every cell you were meant to.

    Tips for Facing Imposter Syndrome When You're Still Learning

    Tips for Facing Imposter Syndrome When You're Still Learning

    In this episode, I share about my personal experiences with imposter syndrome, especially as it relates to Human Design.

    As a 1/3 profile with gate 48 (depth + fear of inadequacy) as the bridge to my split (in other words… as someone who never feels like I know enough or am enough) …I deeply understand imposter syndrome and have struggled with it BIG time in my business!

    YET I show up confidently everyday, share my work in the world, and have grown a sizable community + successful business as a result.

    For almost 2 years I was too scared to talk about HD. Press play to learn some of the actionable steps I took to be able to work through my imposter syndrome and finally stop playing small.

    Just remember that there is ALWAYS a new level of knowledge, awareness, and embodiment to access… but you won’t access ANY of those levels if you do not take any action.

    You’ve got this. I love you!

    P.S. Your participation in Embodied by Design® will significantly reduce your imposter syndrome by equipping you with the correct information, tons of practice, and all the tools you need to share confidently AF 😘😘

    What To Focus On In The New Year To Expand Your Business & Feel Aligned AF

    What To Focus On In The New Year To Expand Your Business & Feel Aligned AF

    I know you want the dollars, clients, and accolades.
    I know you want to feel sure of yourself, clear on your purpose, and prepared for your massive success.
    I know you want to help people transform their lives for the better, improving the world one day at a time.

    I also know you already have everything you need in order to do all of those things. But you won't find them if you're looking in all the wrong places, focusing on all the wrong things.

    Yes, the "Make $_____ in ______ days" taglines are enticing, especially when bills legit need to be paid.

    But think about Trevi Fountain in Rome. It took 30 years. 30 YEARS! to build Trevi Fountain. And thousands of tourists still trust it with their heart's wishes, every single day.

    I'm not saying you need to build your business slowly. I AM saying that building a masterpiece takes time, attention, and care.

    Press play to learn what to focus on in 2023 to expand your business and feel aligned AF in the process.

    2023 Planning With Human Design

    2023 Planning With Human Design

    Too many of us skip over the most important phase of planning: alignment.

    We think that if we just build our business to look like A, then we’ll achieve B result in life. So, we pick a magic number and reverse engineer it and “power through” until we achieve it.

     

    And then guess what? We still don’t feel good.

    Prioritizing your alignment looks like checking in with...
    🖤 yourself, your energy, your emotions, your cycles
    🖤 your vision: for your life, relationships, business, health… all of it
    🖤 every aspect of your business and seeing if they still align: team, offerings, strategy, etc.

    There’s an opportunity to go really deep here and ask big questions, but I think on the other side you’ll find the juiciest, most liberating and empowering self-trust and soul alignment. And Isnt that what we all ultimately want?

    Tune in and let me know what was most helpful for you!

    The Why and the Who Behind Your Message

    The Why and the Who Behind Your Message

    This was an impromptu (aka Manifetor urge) live Instagram training recorded on October 6, 2022. 

    _____

    Knowing WHAT is the core message(s) of your brand/business is obviousy essential. But knowing the WHY and for WHOM is what adds the depth, authenticity, and resonance. The JUICE if you will.

    I love looking at the element of ciruitry in human design because circuitry is what gives context to the entire chart. I don't even see the point in reading abut channels and gates if you don't understand circuitry.

    In this episode I'm breaking down for you:

    - what is circuitry and what are the major circuit groups?
    - real examples of messaging x circuitry
    - examples of what it looks/feels like to craft a message that is misaligned with your circuitry
    - examples of messaging and platforms that work well for different circuit groups

    If you're brand new to Human Design, some of this will go over your head, but getting to the essence of my message will help you craft a compelling message of your own!

    Multi-Passionate Embodiment with D'Ana Joi Spencer

    Multi-Passionate Embodiment with D'Ana Joi Spencer

    I could not be more thrilled to have Joi on the podcast today. I feel like I've gotten lots of Joi time lately, but it's never enough!

    D'Ana Joi Spencer (2/4 emotional manifestor) is a coach for multi-passionates and host of the Multi-Passionate Mastery Podcast. She believes having many passions is a gift, not a burden, and is on a mission to rewrite the narrative around "choosing one thing" being the only path to success.

    There's not a lot of people advocating for multi-passionates, and Joi has made it her life mission, and her passion, to break free from the mindset of picking only one thing to focus on.

    For all the coaches out there who feel like the "choose one niche" advice is too restricting for all of your passions, tap play to hear about how Joi chooses herself in pursuing her multiple passions.
