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.

THE LATEST EPISODES

Episode 319: "I Thought I Was Lazy" — Reclaiming Energy Outside the Hustle
So many women secretly carry the shame of feeling "lazy."
This episode breaks down how Human Design helps reframe what laziness really is (hint: it’s not what you think).
We explore:
How we came to form our beliefs around laziness, productivity, work ethic
What's really at the root of these beliefs
What it looks like through the lens of Human Design
And how to find sustainable energy that has nothing to do with pushing harder

Episode 318: You’re Not the Problem: Why Most Wellness Advice Doesn’t Work for Your Energy
This episode kicks off a series of foundational conversations — the kind that remind you: it’s not you. It’s the systems you were handed.
We’re unpacking what happens when you try to follow all the “right” wellness rules and still feel exhausted, bloated, or like something’s off — and why Human Design offers a new way to listen, rebuild, and reclaim.
This is your permission slip to stop blaming yourself — and start working with your body, not against it.

Episode 317: Reclaiming My Image — Visibility, Being Seen and The Self-Portrait Challenge
What happens when you stop bracing at your own reflection—and start seeing yourself clearly for the first time?
In this solo, deeply personal follow-up to Episode 316, I share what actually happened when I joined The Self-Portrait Challenge with visibility mentor Lisa Haukom — and what it cracked open for me.
What began as an experiment in iPhone photography quickly became a process of unpacking why I’ve spent most of my life flinching at photos of myself to softening old stories, letting go of performance, and reclaiming how I see myself now.
You’ll hear me share:
The quiet grief of no longer recognizing your body
The power of documenting (not performing)
How representation—especially as an Asian women—isn’t just about visibility, but self-trust
Why learning to love photos of yourself isn’t about vanity—it’s about recognition
Whether you're in your thirties, forties, fifties or beyond, if you’ve ever felt invisible in your own life or body, this one’s for you.

Episode 315: You Don’t Have a Discipline Problem—You Have a Decision-Making Problem
You know what to do. You’ve tried to do it. But for some reason, it just never sticks—and you’re left wondering if you just lack willpower.
This episode is your reminder that you’re not flaky, uncommitted, or “bad at routines.” You’re just making decisions from the wrong place.
We’re unpacking the real root of burnout and inconsistency: decision fatigue, external pressure, and ignoring your inner guidance. If you’ve ever said “I know what to do, I just don’t do it,” this one’s for you.

Episode 314: Human Design and Burnout: What Your Energy Type Is Trying to Tell You
You’ve followed the "food rules." Bought allllll the supplements. Checked every “should” box. And yet... you’re still exhausted, overwhelmed, and questioning yourself.
This episode is your permission slip to stop blaming yourself—and start noticing where your wellness plan is just out of alignment.
We’re breaking down:
How to recognize when you’re forcing vs. flowing
What Human Design can reveal about it
Why the “problem” isn’t you—it’s the performance-based wellness culture we’ve all been conditioned by

Episode 313: Your Energy Isn’t the Problem—Your Wellness Plan Is
If you’ve ever wondered why the “just wake up at 5am and grind” routine doesn’t work for you, this episode is your permission slip to stop forcing it—and start understanding how your energy actually works.
You’re not broken. You’re just trying to follow wellness advice that wasn’t designed for your energy.
In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on why your go-to wellness practices might be doing more harm than good and calling BS on the performative self-care trends and hustle wellness that leave you burned out and blaming yourself —and how Human Design gives you the blueprint to stop forcing, start flowing, and finally feel better in your body.

Episode 309: The Undefined G-Center: Identity, Direction, and Embracing Change
If you've ever felt like you don’t have a clear sense of who you are, struggled with direction, or found yourself changing based on who you’re around—this episode is for you.
The Undefined G-Center is often misunderstood. Instead of being a flaw, it’s actually a gift: the ability to flow, evolve, and take in life’s experiences from different angles. But when conditioning creeps in, it can make you feel ungrounded, lost, or like you need to force an identity.
In this episode, we’ll explore:
What it really means to have an undefined or open G-Center
The beauty (and challenges) of fluid identity
How conditioning around “having a clear direction” impacts those with an Undefined G
Practices to embrace your natural ability to evolve without losing yourself
If you’ve ever felt pressure to “figure yourself out” or “stick to one path,” this episode will help you reclaim the power of your adaptable, open-hearted nature.

Episode 308: Self-Worth and the Undefined Heart: Breaking the Cycle
If you’ve ever felt like you had to prove your worth, work harder to deserve success, or constantly seek validation, your Undefined Heart Center might be at play.
The Undefined Heart Center is one of the most conditioned areas in Human Design, leaving many of us stuck in overworking, over-promising, and over-proving. But what if your worthiness wasn’t something you had to prove—but something you simply owned?
In this episode, we’re breaking down:
How the Undefined Heart Center impacts self-worth and validation
The sneaky ways it shows up in career, relationships, and daily life
How to stop the cycle of proving yourself and start trusting your natural value
If you’ve ever thought “I just need to work harder” or “I’ll feel worthy when…”, this episode is for you.

Episode 306: The Intersection of Stress and Conditioning
How much of your stress is truly yours—and how much comes from the world around you?
In this episode, we’re diving deep into the intersection of stress and conditioning, exploring how societal, familial, and even workplace expectations shape our responses to pressure. By understanding how conditioning contributes to chronic stress, you’ll learn to untangle inherited patterns and reclaim peace.
We’ll cover:
How your Human Design reveals stress patterns and where you’re most vulnerable to conditioning
Tools to differentiate external stress from your own natural rhythms
Strategies to decondition, restore alignment, and protect your energy in a world that thrives on hustle
If you’re feeling the weight of other people’s expectations or struggling to find calm amidst chaos, this episode is for you.
