Nicole Laino: Come here to become an unshakable human and build an unshakable business according to your human design.
0:17
Nicole Laino: I'm your host, Nicole Laino.
0:21
Nicole Laino: Hello and welcome to Unshakable with Human Design.
0:25
Nicole Laino: I'm your host, Nicole Laino, and it's just you and me today.
0:28
Nicole Laino: And today I want to have a little talk about leadership.
0:31
Nicole Laino: So lately I have been hearing the same thing from lots and lots of people.
0:36
Nicole Laino: Client friends of mine, business besties, and everybody.
0:40
Nicole Laino: Even people who are very capable, in fact, very experienced leaders.
0:44
Nicole Laino: I'm hearing the same thing.
0:45
Nicole Laino: They keep saying things like, you know, things feel hard right now.
0:49
Nicole Laino: It feels hard to lead.
0:51
Nicole Laino: I don't trust the way that things work anymore, that the things that were working before aren't working now.
0:57
Nicole Laino: And a lot of people feeling like, you know, especially people who have been doing this for a while, the people that I'm talking about, they are doing some nervous system regulation work.
1:07
Nicole Laino: You know, they have proven businesses.
1:09
Nicole Laino: Even the people who are really experienced are still.
1:11
Nicole Laino: Are still sitting there saying, like, things feel really heavy, and I'm doing everything that I used to do, but it's not working the way that it used to.
1:19
Nicole Laino: That is frustrating.
1:20
Nicole Laino: That is scary for a lot of people.
1:22
Nicole Laino: And if that's been your experience, if you are going through that, I want to say really clearly right up front, you're not imagining it.
1:29
Nicole Laino: This is actually something that is very much in the air right now.
1:33
Nicole Laino: It is very much in all of our experience.
1:35
Nicole Laino: And, you know, congratulations.
1:37
Nicole Laino: If you're aware of it, you are already ahead of 90% of the world.
1:41
Nicole Laino: 90% of the world is just sort of blindly going through this saying, like, oh, my God, what's happening?
1:45
Nicole Laino: But if you are listening to this show and you are even remotely aware that something energetically is changing, then you are in the minority.
1:54
Nicole Laino: Okay, okay.
1:54
Nicole Laino: Which is a good thing.
1:55
Nicole Laino: So leadership feels really different right now because the structures that we used to orient ourselves through are no longer reliable.
2:04
Nicole Laino: We're starting to feel that.
2:05
Nicole Laino: And that's not an accident.
2:07
Nicole Laino: That's not an unfortunate thing that we're going through.
2:10
Nicole Laino: I mean, it's uncomfortable, but we're in the middle or we're really early stage of a big transition.
2:17
Nicole Laino: We're in this in between, period.
2:19
Nicole Laino: One where external authority, collective certainty, all of these things.
2:25
Nicole Laino: Remember the CIS system, that feeling like, follow the system and you'll be Safe that thinking that truth is dissolving, it's disappearing.
2:32
Nicole Laino: It's not feeling true anymore.
2:36
Nicole Laino: And that's really scary.
2:37
Nicole Laino: And what's replacing it isn't chaos, even though it can feel that way.
2:41
Nicole Laino: It's a requirement or internal orientation.
2:44
Nicole Laino: Like what we are doing now.
2:46
Nicole Laino: This is what the leadership of tomorrow is actually going to look like.
2:49
Nicole Laino: We're going from trusting the outside world to trusting ourselves.
2:52
Nicole Laino: And that's scary for a lot of people.
2:54
Nicole Laino: That shift changes what leadership actually asks of you.
2:57
Nicole Laino: So in this episode, I'm going to walk you through why leadership feels different right now, what's actually changing underneath the surface, and why.
3:04
Nicole Laino: The leaders who are going to thrive through this aren't the ones with the loudest voices.
3:08
Nicole Laino: They're the ones who are rooted enough to stay themselves when everything else is moving.
3:13
Nicole Laino: Okay, so what leadership looks like right now is it can feel heavier, it can feel more exposed, it can feel more chaotic, and it can feel like there's just less certainty.
3:24
Nicole Laino: There's more responsibility right now.
3:27
Nicole Laino: And that feeling of like, I did everything right.
3:30
Nicole Laino: Why doesn't this work the same anymore?
3:32
Nicole Laino: Some people are confusing that, right?
3:33
Nicole Laino: They're thinking, like, I'm burnt out, I'm failing.
3:36
Nicole Laino: It's not that.
3:37
Nicole Laino: It's a context change that we're going through.
3:40
Nicole Laino: It's why we're seeing so many entrepreneurs close their businesses.
3:43
Nicole Laino: One of my mentors, she was telling me in they coach seven figure, eight figure businesses.
3:48
Nicole Laino: And they were saying, you know, because I told her were up, I said, I was like, yeah, 2025 was actually a great year for us.
3:55
Nicole Laino: 2024 was a great year for us.
3:56
Nicole Laino: And she was like, that's not a story I hear very often.
3:59
Nicole Laino: She's like, what I hear from everybody.
4:01
Nicole Laino: She's like, right now we have business owners who are making 3 million a year that are doing 1 million a year, which you might be like, ooh, I'd love to do 1 million a year.
4:09
Nicole Laino: Well, not if you were doing 3.
4:11
Nicole Laino: You wouldn't feel that way.
4:12
Nicole Laino: You wouldn't be saying that.
4:14
Nicole Laino: You know what I mean?
4:15
Nicole Laino: You would be like, we're down and I'm scared.
4:18
Nicole Laino: Are we going to make it?
4:19
Nicole Laino: They have employees to pay.
4:21
Nicole Laino: They have responsibilities.
4:23
Nicole Laino: And she was saying that some people were making 1 million a year that are making 300,000 and again, 300,000, a lot of money.
4:30
Nicole Laino: But not if you were making a million the year before.
4:33
Nicole Laino: That means you're not making payroll.
4:35
Nicole Laino: That means you have to change things drastically in your business.
4:38
Nicole Laino: And some of them are Opting to opt out instead because it sort of shattered their ability to see the possibility in their business.
4:47
Nicole Laino: And they were like, you know what, I'm just, I'm going to tap out.
4:49
Nicole Laino: And what's happening is they're operating in an old paradigm and we're entering a brand new one.
4:55
Nicole Laino: And that's something that, you know, most people are trying to solve this by doing more, right?
5:00
Nicole Laino: That's the old paradigm.
5:02
Nicole Laino: The old paradigm is just do more.
5:04
Nicole Laino: And I'm not saying doing less is the answer, but what's actually required is a different way of orienting yourself.
5:12
Nicole Laino: It's a different way of relating to what you are doing.
5:15
Nicole Laino: It's a very different just way of being with this.
5:19
Nicole Laino: Those people from before that I'm describing, people are like, I have a system, I trust the system works.
5:25
Nicole Laino: And when the system stops working, they're not trusting anymore.
5:28
Nicole Laino: They are oriented to the system, they're not oriented to themselves.
5:32
Nicole Laino: This is what intuitive leadership is about.
5:35
Nicole Laino: This is what human design is about.
5:37
Nicole Laino: And that's what we're going to break down for you here.
5:40
Nicole Laino: So there's like this big shift underneath the surface, right?
5:44
Nicole Laino: So there's like been this system based leadership.
5:48
Nicole Laino: I believe in the system, I believe in government, I believe in, you know, and think about all of the structures that we're used to.
5:55
Nicole Laino: And if you've been listening to my episodes where I've talked about the cross of planning, we're going to talk about it a little bit today, but I really want to focus just on the leadership aspect of this in this episode.
6:02
Nicole Laino: But if you've been listening to those episodes, you know, I've been talking about, you know, the shift in the structures and it's not that they're all going to go away and it's just the way that we relate to them is going to be very different.
6:16
Nicole Laino: So we're moving out of this system based leadership.
6:19
Nicole Laino: I believe in the company, I believe in the structure.
6:22
Nicole Laino: I believe that if I show up and I work from 9am to 5pm I will get paid this amount of money and I will be good for the rest of my life.
6:29
Nicole Laino: That may still end up being true for some people.
6:31
Nicole Laino: I'm sure it's going to be true for a lot of people.
6:34
Nicole Laino: But it's also, that's not going to be what we are all trusting as a collective anymore.
6:39
Nicole Laino: And what we're moving into is self referenced leadership where we're oriented to ourselves, where we're oriented to our own intuition, our own feelings, our own decision.
6:50
Nicole Laino: Making.
6:51
Nicole Laino: So this is a good thing, okay?
6:53
Nicole Laino: Because the old way.
6:54
Nicole Laino: Let me break this down just a little bit further, okay?
6:56
Nicole Laino: So the old way is when you're uncertain, I'm going to look for a system or a structure to provide that certainty, right?
7:03
Nicole Laino: That borrowed certainty.
7:05
Nicole Laino: That is circumstantial certainty, right?
7:08
Nicole Laino: And that's going to collapse faster now because systems are coming down, they are changing.
7:13
Nicole Laino: I'm not saying that they're all going to crumble, but they are going to change fundamentally in the way that we relate to them and in their structure.
7:21
Nicole Laino: So when the old structures give way, you either feel crushed by the collapse or you're forced to find something inside yourself to hold you that's important and that's not a bad thing.
7:32
Nicole Laino: It's just not what we're used to, right?
7:34
Nicole Laino: But if you've been following human design and you have been diving into this with me or with other people, I'm sure if you were diving into it with me, you're probably.
7:42
Nicole Laino: I am not your first and I won't be your last human design person.
7:45
Nicole Laino: And that's okay.
7:46
Nicole Laino: There's many of us out there and there's so many perspectives on this and you take what works for you, right?
7:51
Nicole Laino: But the mind, the reason why human design is so powerful with this, I mean, I could go on and on about why it is, but just a few points are the mind is what holds you in the system.
8:02
Nicole Laino: The mind is what wants certainty.
8:05
Nicole Laino: Remember, the not self of the Ajna is to not feel certain.
8:09
Nicole Laino: The mind doesn't feel certain, which sends it into the not self.
8:14
Nicole Laino: So when there isn't a system to hold on to, the mind's really looking for that.
8:18
Nicole Laino: Because the mind loves to know what's coming next.
8:21
Nicole Laino: The logical brain wants to figure everything out, and the abstract brain wants to figure out why everything in the past happened, right?
8:28
Nicole Laino: Wants to understand it all.
8:30
Nicole Laino: And the logical brain wants to figure out every pattern and figure out what's going on and how it all works so we can protect ourselves in the future.
8:39
Nicole Laino: It loves a system.
8:41
Nicole Laino: In fact, it's what invented systems.
8:43
Nicole Laino: So strategy and authority is what breaks you free from this.
8:46
Nicole Laino: Because you're no longer trusting your mind.
8:48
Nicole Laino: You're no longer looking to your mind for the answers.
8:51
Nicole Laino: You look inside of yourself.
8:53
Nicole Laino: You wait for a feeling in your body.
8:55
Nicole Laino: You are connecting to your environment, depending on what your authority is.
9:00
Nicole Laino: And when you start to follow that, you realize that the systems are not necessary anymore.
9:05
Nicole Laino: For that, we still need systems.
9:07
Nicole Laino: We're still going to need like healthcare.
9:09
Nicole Laino: So I really hope we come up with some really great solutions that are very new world focused.
9:15
Nicole Laino: But from a leadership perspective, leadership is a whole new game now because I want you to think about what people are dealing with.
9:21
Nicole Laino: This is why they are having trouble investing in things.
9:24
Nicole Laino: It's why they are having trouble showing up.
9:26
Nicole Laino: It's why they are having trouble taking action.
9:29
Nicole Laino: Because they want certainty.
9:30
Nicole Laino: And we see this even when the systems are there.
9:32
Nicole Laino: Right.
9:32
Nicole Laino: It's why we buy PDFs, that's why we buy all these systems.
9:35
Nicole Laino: How do I plug into a system so that I feel safe?
9:37
Nicole Laino: Right.
9:38
Nicole Laino: And to some degree that's, that can be helpful, but we can also become addicted to that and we can also become where we think the system and the strategy is going to save us.
9:48
Nicole Laino: You've probably dealt with that yourself, right.
9:50
Nicole Laino: And not been able to maybe lead yourself through that where you've attached yourself to a strategy or you thought that the strategy would solve all your problems and then you realize that you actually internally are the thing that's holding you back.
10:03
Nicole Laino: The strategy actually had very little to do with it.
10:05
Nicole Laino: Yeah, me too.
10:06
Nicole Laino: Been there, no shame in the game.
10:10
Nicole Laino: Okay.
10:10
Nicole Laino: So leadership now is asking for something different.
10:13
Nicole Laino: And this is where this feminine energy is going to come in even bigger.
10:19
Nicole Laino: We have seen it.
10:20
Nicole Laino: So you might be saying like Nicole, I know, nervous system regulation, nervous system leadership, expansion in your energy.
10:27
Nicole Laino: We've been talking about this for years.
10:28
Nicole Laino: Yeah.
10:29
Nicole Laino: We've been talking about first of all in the, you know, personal development industry.
10:32
Nicole Laino: Right.
10:33
Nicole Laino: The whole world is not having the same conversations that we are in this space.
10:37
Nicole Laino: Right.
10:37
Nicole Laino: They're starting to.
10:39
Nicole Laino: And yes.
10:39
Nicole Laino: And it's only been a few years, but I want you to think about it.
10:42
Nicole Laino: We are starting to feel the pull toward the future.
10:45
Nicole Laino: Our intuition is what has been telling us to explore these themes to deepen our connection to these tools and to these practices to prepare us.
10:57
Nicole Laino: Right.
10:57
Nicole Laino: So congratulations your part of the leaders already by being even introduced to this work.
11:03
Nicole Laino: Okay.
11:03
Nicole Laino: So leadership now is asking for nervous system stability.
11:07
Nicole Laino: This is why deconditioning is so powerful.
11:10
Nicole Laino: So I look at deconditioning not just as stop doing the thing that the not self is be misaligned because most of us can't do that.
11:17
Nicole Laino: I look at deconditioning from a nervous system perspective.
11:20
Nicole Laino: I look at deconditioning like it's usually trauma or beliefs and things that we have taken on throughout our lives that we have to work through before we're able to stop being caught in a pattern of conditioning okay.
11:36
Nicole Laino: And we're.
11:37
Nicole Laino: The world is trying to condition us to its way every day.
11:41
Nicole Laino: So we are both dealing with the now and then we're dealing with the past trauma and the past conditioning that we have to like I always call it like, you know, there's two layers to this, right?
11:52
Nicole Laino: The past trauma cleanup of going through your open centers and going through your bridging gates and the other things in your human design that are helping you.
11:59
Nicole Laino: I use human design as a map to where you might be stuck.
12:04
Nicole Laino: Where are you not following your process?
12:06
Nicole Laino: Where have you taken on somebody else's thoughts, beliefs, desires and made them your own?
12:12
Nicole Laino: Where is that doing that to you?
12:13
Nicole Laino: There's that and then there's the day to day conditioning of what we are battling with, dealing with whatever we are exposed to.
12:21
Nicole Laino: Right?
12:21
Nicole Laino: So there's two layers.
12:22
Nicole Laino: The past stuff is like the deep clean of the house.
12:26
Nicole Laino: If you move into a new house, right?
12:27
Nicole Laino: Don't you think about this?
12:28
Nicole Laino: You're the new house, right?
12:29
Nicole Laino: You're moving into the new house.
12:31
Nicole Laino: You're like, okay, I'm going to take on this business.
12:32
Nicole Laino: I'm going to do all these things.
12:33
Nicole Laino: It's a little yucky in here.
12:35
Nicole Laino: People left stuff and there's like, there's some mystery goop and things.
12:40
Nicole Laino: I'm going to hire someone or I'm going to do it.
12:42
Nicole Laino: I'm going to deep clean this house.
12:43
Nicole Laino: So I feel like this is my place and there's nothing old sitting in here, right?
12:49
Nicole Laino: Feels really good.
12:50
Nicole Laino: You still have to clean the house and maintain it after that.
12:53
Nicole Laino: So you start out with the fully cleaned house.
12:55
Nicole Laino: It's like scrubbed and spick and span but then after that you're going to live in it, you're going to make more mess, right?
13:02
Nicole Laino: That's the day to day maintenance of your nervous system.
13:05
Nicole Laino: Okay?
13:06
Nicole Laino: So that is required.
13:07
Nicole Laino: That's what leadership now is going to ask from us is that nervous system stability, the nervous system expansion.
13:14
Nicole Laino: It's going to ask of us to make decisions without guarantees.
13:18
Nicole Laino: Self trust is going to be so important.
13:21
Nicole Laino: It's really going to be the engine for everything.
13:24
Nicole Laino: Because if you don't trust yourself, then you're probably going to be stuck.
13:29
Nicole Laino: There aren't going to be these strong systems to hold onto.
13:33
Nicole Laino: I mean, this is what I use coaching for.
13:35
Nicole Laino: I find coaches that I trust, I find people that I think are doing a good job and have a real system behind what they do.
13:42
Nicole Laino: There are some people that are going to be really great at these things.
13:46
Nicole Laino: So what we have to do is we have to seek those people out and we plug into that.
13:50
Nicole Laino: But we're building trust with ourselves that whole time.
13:53
Nicole Laino: That self trust is what allows us to take action on these things and don't be overly reliant on them.
13:58
Nicole Laino: Don't feel like you have to do everything the way that they do it.
14:01
Nicole Laino: You know, use it as something to be in relationship to.
14:04
Nicole Laino: It's going to ask us also to be seen without external validation.
14:08
Nicole Laino: We're really going to have to show up.
14:10
Nicole Laino: It's your success is going to be, and I mean success, just like in a human way.
14:15
Nicole Laino: So material success, but also just your success in life fulfillment.
14:21
Nicole Laino: This energy is not going to allow us to.
14:24
Nicole Laino: Because you're going to slip into shadow.
14:25
Nicole Laino: I should just say it like that.
14:26
Nicole Laino: You'll slip into the shadow of what is coming and what is here.
14:30
Nicole Laino: If you are seeking external validation because it's so much about personal power now.
14:36
Nicole Laino: So what this is going to mean is that we have more personal responsibility on ourselves and there will be less reassurance from the outside world.
14:44
Nicole Laino: It's going to have to come from in us.
14:46
Nicole Laino: Okay?
14:47
Nicole Laino: And I know that can sound difficult and I know that can sound scary.
14:50
Nicole Laino: And if you're feeling that right now, I don't want you to think about that as bad.
14:55
Nicole Laino: It's an initiation.
14:57
Nicole Laino: Anything new is scary, Anything new is new.
14:59
Nicole Laino: And we have to readjust and we have to learn it right?
15:03
Nicole Laino: It's not going to incapacitate you.
15:05
Nicole Laino: It is not going to knock you down, not if you're doing the work.
15:08
Nicole Laino: Okay?
15:08
Nicole Laino: But here's the other good thing.
15:10
Nicole Laino: The playing field is totally leveled because everyone is going to have to adjust to this.
15:14
Nicole Laino: This is not a personal thing.
15:16
Nicole Laino: This is not something that you and only you are going to face.
15:20
Nicole Laino: Everybody will be going through this and there will be lots of people that are preparing.
15:24
Nicole Laino: But not everybody will, and certainly not the majority.
15:26
Nicole Laino: They won't know it's even happening.
15:28
Nicole Laino: Okay?
15:29
Nicole Laino: So you could position yourself ahead by doing the work.
15:32
Nicole Laino: Okay?
15:33
Nicole Laino: Leadership as a whole, like leading yourself is going to be really paramount.
15:38
Nicole Laino: This is going to be the thing that is driving everything.
15:42
Nicole Laino: That's going to be where your confidence comes from.
15:44
Nicole Laino: It's going to be what attracts people to you.
15:47
Nicole Laino: Because think about it.
15:48
Nicole Laino: The more unsure people are, the more they're going to see somebody who is leading themselves and they're going to say, I want to be connected to him or her or they.
15:58
Nicole Laino: I want to be connected to them because I want what they have.
16:02
Nicole Laino: Can I learn some of that?
16:04
Nicole Laino: You Know, through proximity, through learning, through.
16:07
Nicole Laino: Can I just absorb some of that?
16:09
Nicole Laino: Right.
16:10
Nicole Laino: So it's not going to get harder because you got weaker.
16:12
Nicole Laino: It's not going to get harder because you know everything's changing.
16:16
Nicole Laino: It's just going to be a lot more honest.
16:18
Nicole Laino: Leadership is going to have to really come from inside of you.
16:22
Nicole Laino: New leaders are going to have to embody leadership.
16:24
Nicole Laino: They're not just going to be able to talk about it because people are already sniffing that out.
16:29
Nicole Laino: I think that's why a lot of those people that had a system that worked but weren't leaders, it's not working for them anymore.
16:34
Nicole Laino: That's why they're tapping out this new leader that is emerging where, which you are going to be.
16:40
Nicole Laino: If you continue listening to the show, if you continue on this journey with human design, you are going to be one of those people and you'll get to choose how you lead, whether it's through a business or whether it's through just being a stand up member of your community, whatever that community is.
16:54
Nicole Laino: But what you're going to learn how to do, what you're going to know how to do through embodiment of your practices is tap into internal authority and have you know, it's discernment over certainty.
17:06
Nicole Laino: You're not going to know all the time whether something will work.
17:08
Nicole Laino: You're just going to say, you know, it's my favorite saying that I got from James Webmore.
17:13
Nicole Laino: I will either get the result that I want or the lesson that I need.
17:15
Nicole Laino: It's like we make a good choice and then you give it up to God and you say, I'm going to put my best foot forward.
17:22
Nicole Laino: This feels right and if I trust that it feels right, then that's all I can get.
17:25
Nicole Laino: That's the best I can do.
17:27
Nicole Laino: So I move and I go with that.
17:29
Nicole Laino: Right.
17:29
Nicole Laino: And then the other thing that leaders are going to have is they're going to regulate, overreact.
17:33
Nicole Laino: It's not going to be a reactionary.
17:35
Nicole Laino: People are going to add to the chaos.
17:37
Nicole Laino: Regulated people are going to be the ones that magnetize people.
17:40
Nicole Laino: To them, performance leadership is just, it's over.
17:43
Nicole Laino: If you are not really truly in your leadership era and people are going to sniff that out and it's going to be difficult for you.
17:51
Nicole Laino: So it's really about leading yourself.
17:54
Nicole Laino: That's kind of groundbreaking in and of itself, right?
17:56
Nicole Laino: Is that we can tend to think of leadership course and read books like, you know, Habits of Highly Effective People.
18:02
Nicole Laino: We have all of these things that we do to become Leaders.
18:05
Nicole Laino: But the truth is that what people are most attracted to from a leadership perspective is somebody who's honest and somebody who's leading themselves.
18:13
Nicole Laino: And that example kind of does it.
18:15
Nicole Laino: Now, of course, there's thought leadership.
18:17
Nicole Laino: There's all these other ways that we think of leadership.
18:19
Nicole Laino: But it starts with being centered in your core to be a truly good leader.
18:25
Nicole Laino: I'm not talking about, like, there are shitty leaders out there.
18:28
Nicole Laino: I'm not suggesting that.
18:29
Nicole Laino: We're talking about being, like, a truly aligned and, you know, a leader with integrity.
18:34
Nicole Laino: So leadership now is about.
18:36
Nicole Laino: It's something that you are.
18:38
Nicole Laino: It is not something that you do.
18:40
Nicole Laino: So the last thing I kind of want to say about this is that I think we can get caught up.
18:44
Nicole Laino: And I think that certainty thing comes in, which is that we think that leaders are the people that have answers, right?
18:50
Nicole Laino: I don't have all the answers.
18:52
Nicole Laino: I am a leader to a lot of people because I'm living this and people can sense that I can help them navigate these waters.
18:59
Nicole Laino: They sense that I have integrity.
19:01
Nicole Laino: I hear that a lot from people where they're like, you seem different than a lot of coaches, and I appreciate that.
19:07
Nicole Laino: I don't have the biggest audience, I don't have the biggest business, but I do have really loyal people in my world that sense something from me that I walk the walk.
19:17
Nicole Laino: And because I walk the walk, that gives me the ability to be a thought leader.
19:21
Nicole Laino: I have this show because I'm walking the walk.
19:23
Nicole Laino: And I have things to talk to you about because I do them, and I have lots of thoughts about the things that I do.
19:30
Nicole Laino: So if this interests you, if you are being a leader of the next generation, if you are looking to move forward in alignment into this next part, because we've got 2027 coming, that's where this is all coming from.
19:45
Nicole Laino: This change is happening.
19:46
Nicole Laino: It's the cross of planning is ending.
19:48
Nicole Laino: Not a bad thing.
19:49
Nicole Laino: Again, not a terrible thing.
19:51
Nicole Laino: It's just a change.
19:52
Nicole Laino: The cross of the Sleeping Phoenix is coming, and it's also the year of the fire horse.
19:56
Nicole Laino: 2026 is going to be the year of the Fire Horse, right after this episode airs.
20:00
Nicole Laino: So this is a preparation window.
20:03
Nicole Laino: This is the year that we are kind of.
20:05
Nicole Laino: We are in the preparatory phase, right?
20:08
Nicole Laino: And it's about orientating ourselves before we're going to accelerate, before that energy starts to move really fast.
20:16
Nicole Laino: And so if you are interested in this, because once you understand what's shifting, you stop reacting to it and you can actually lead through it.
20:25
Nicole Laino: And if this interests you.
