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 199: Your Human Design Cognition
Do you have a trait or “sense” that you excel at? It’s a knack that you have that not very many others possess.
Continuing our exploration of the Human Design Variables, in this episode, we take a look at Cognition.
You’ll hear:
What is Cognition in Human Design
Where Cognition fits into the Human Design variables framework and how corresponds to the other Variables
The six kinds of Cognition and how they show up

Episode 198: Your Human Design Determination
In the last episode, Episode 197, I introduced the Human Design Variables. In this episode, the second installment in this mini-series we take a look at the variable of Determination.
You’ll hear:
What is Determination in Human Design
How it fits into the framework and corresponds to the other Variables
The six kinds of Determination and the tones for each one

Episode 197: The Human Design Variables
Did you know that there’s an element in Human Design connected to digestion?
As a Functional Nutrition Health Coach that specializes in digestive and gut health, when I heard this, I was so intrigued that I just had to learn more.
Just as Functional Nutrition recalibrated my thinking to going beyond the surface to look at what’s at the root of everything, I quickly realized that this is what Human Design has come to do for me as well. It’s a deeper way to look after my well-being beyond what’s just on my plate.
And the Human Design Variables is yet another layer of how Human Design sheds light on our health in literal and energetic ways.
In this episode, I provide an overview of what the Human Design Variables are, and it kicks off a mini-series where we’ll explore each variable and how they complement each other.

Episode 192: The Sacral Center and Shifting My Relationship with Food
As a health coach who has helped clients with energy management to reduce stress, fatigue, and burnout, the Sacral center is one aspect of Human Design that strongly resonates with me because those who defined Sacral centers know when “enough is enough.”
Continuing the conversation from Episode 191, in this episode, I reflect on how learning about my undefined Sacral center has further shifted my relationship with food, tracking, and the apps that I use to support this.

Episode 191: The Sacral Center and Shifting My Relationship with Exercise and Workouts
As a health coach who has helped clients with energy management to reduce stress, fatigue, and burnout, the Sacral center is one aspect of Human Design that strongly resonates with me because those who defined Sacral centers know when “enough is enough.”
As someone with an undefined Sacral center, I’ve spent *a lot* of time thinking about how this shows up for me, as someone who struggled with adrenal depletion and overtraining.
So, in this episode, I share my reflections on how this presented in the past in my relationship with exercise, and how it’s helped me shift my relationship to workouts.

Episode 180: Bioindividuality and Human Design
Human Design embraces your uniqueness, showing why general, blanket statement advice may not work for you. It's not that there’s anything wrong with you, rather, there’s a more effective way that comes more naturally to you, which begs the question, “How well do we know ourselves? What parts of us are inherent to us? What parts have we been conditioned to be?”
The onus is on each of us to observe, explore, and uncover the answers to those questions, and what emerges is a deep sense of self-awareness that develops into an intimate knowledge of who you really are, and what you need to thrive - not just what you might have been conditioned to believe.
In the solo episode, I explore the intersection between bio-individuality, the idea that no one diet works for everyone, and Human Design, a framework that sheds like on our subtle, innate gifts.
You’ll hear me share:
What is bio-individuality?
What is Human Design?
The intersection of where they meet
How, collaboratively, they can help us step into our highest potential

Episode 169: Using Human Design to Avoid Burnout
In a society where we're expected to push ourselves to work and accomplish much as quickly as possible, it’s no wonder that burnout has become the accepted norm.
In this last installment of my three-part series on burnout, we explore Human Design and why you might be more susceptible to burnout than others.
I share with you how I use my Human Design to reframe my thought patterns and daily habits to avoid burnout.
Episode Highlights:
A recap of Parts 1 and 2 in this series on burnout
What areas of your Human Design chart can shed insight into whether you might be prone to burnout
How you can use Human Design to your advantage to manage your energy and avoid burnout

Episode 152: Self-Discovery Through Human Design & Health
In my health journey over the years, I’ve come to learn that the human body is so much more than what manifests physically.
The body has a cohesive flow that when there is disruption, can cause so much more damage to us than we realize.
In this episode, I share how 2020 was a year of self-discovery for me, especially as I learned about and leaned into my Human Design. You’ll hear me discuss:
How the pandemic gave me the time to reframe and redefine self-care
How I came to learn about Human Design and the synchronicities it has with other self-healing modalities I’d been using
How it helps me grow in all aspects of my life
How I’m incorporating it into my health coaching work

Episode 142: Using Human Design As A Tool for Health, Productivity, and Reframing Your Mindset with Erin Claire Jones
We often look for external resources to help us manage our health, mindset, stress, and really, discover “who are.” But much of what we are in search of is already innate within us, just waiting to be discovered. Human Design is a system that can help us uncover these gifts that we already possess.
In this week’s podcast episode, I’m joined by Leadership Coach and Human Design expert Erin Claire Jones for a conversation on how Human Design can be used as a tool in how we approach our work and health, and how we manage our productivity and mindset.
You’ll hear us discuss:
The depth and layers of Human Design
The impact Human Design can have on productivity, team building, communication, and success in the workplace
3 insights on how Human Design can support digestion
What Human Design can tell us about how to approach workouts
