I started this podcast in 2017 — not to shout into the void, but to start the kinds of conversations I wished existed. The ones that name the real reasons women feel off, even when they “do everything right.”

As a Projector, I lead with pattern recognition. As a Human Design + functional nutrition practitioner, I give language to what your body’s already been whispering.

This show is about unlearning the noise — and rebuilding self-trust, one episode at a time.

Episode 213: The Ripple Effect of Kindness and the Self-Compassion Challenge with Heidi Jones

I believe that Human Design teaches us self-love and ultimately, self-trust. And when we’re able to love and trust ourselves, we’re able to embrace our uniqueness and lean into our authenticity. As a byproduct, we can naturally fall into a life of freedom, good health, and empowerment.

Joining me to explore one path towards this is Heidi Jones.

Episode 202: On Being A Reflector & Following A Lunar Authority with Tanya Reyes

In Human Design, Reflectors are a rarity. In fact, its believed that Reflectors make up only one percent of the population. Besides their rarity, what makes them so special is the openness of their Human Design, having no defined centers in their charts. This makes Reflectors incredibly vulnerable, flexible, and a mirror of who and what surrounds them.
