Transcript
- 0:11Nicole Laino: Come here to become an unshakable human and build an unshakable business according to your human design.
- 0:17Nicole Laino: I'm your host, Nicole Laino.
- 0:21Nicole Laino: Hello, and welcome to Unshakable with Human Design.
- 0:24Nicole Laino: I'm your host, Nicole Laino.
- 0:26Nicole Laino: And today it's just us.
- 0:28Nicole Laino: We are going to be doing a little bit of a human design business connection episode here.
- 0:34Nicole Laino: And human design, I think one of the things that I love about it so much and how it's changed my life and changed the lives of literally thousands of people that I've worked with and the various ways that I connect with people, it's the fact that it gives you this opportunity to rewrite your story, to see your life, your luck, your lessons all through this new lens.
- 0:58Nicole Laino: It gives you a really interesting and powerful perspective on your life.
- 1:03Nicole Laino: And as you know, perspective is everything.
- 1:05Nicole Laino: This is.
- 1:06Nicole Laino: Perspective is what allows somebody.
- 1:08Nicole Laino: When I worked for Goldman Sachs, one of the things that I thought was pretty amazing was that the CEO at the time that I worked there, his father was like a sanitation worker.
- 1:18Nicole Laino: And he grew up just feeling capable and very smart and very much that lift yourself up by your bootstraps kind of story.
- 1:27Nicole Laino: But he went on to go to Harvard and then to run one of the biggest banks in the entire world.
- 1:32Nicole Laino: And that comes from.
- 1:34Nicole Laino: It starts from a perspective.
- 1:35Nicole Laino: It starts from a, I can.
- 1:37Nicole Laino: I will.
- 1:38Nicole Laino: I'm capable.
- 1:39Nicole Laino: I'll figure it out.
- 1:40Nicole Laino: Just something in you that says that you're worthy, that you can possibly do it.
- 1:45Nicole Laino: And the stories that don't go the way that we want them to go usually start with maybe they have a little bit of hope, but then they lose it.
- 1:51Nicole Laino: Maybe they start to look at life through the lens of saying, like, I can't, because.
- 1:56Nicole Laino: So that man didn't look at his life and say, I can't succeed because my dad is a sanitation worker and isn't a Wall street executive.
- 2:05Nicole Laino: I absolutely have had moments where I've done both of these things where I have been a victim of circumstance, where I have looked at life and looked at my opportunities and looked at where I am through the lens of why I don't have them.
- 2:21Nicole Laino: What could I blame for my lot in life?
- 2:24Nicole Laino: This is very gate 55 sort of lesson, right?
- 2:27Nicole Laino: Gate 55, the shadow is victimhood.
- 2:30Nicole Laino: Victimhood is that feeling of, like, things happen to me, not for me.
- 2:34Nicole Laino: And human design.
- 2:35Nicole Laino: I think Is one of the.
- 2:37Nicole Laino: There are many tools that do this, but I think it's one of the most powerful to give you a new perspective on yourself.
- 2:43Nicole Laino: Why did that happen?
- 2:44Nicole Laino: Maybe it wasn't an accident.
- 2:46Nicole Laino: Maybe I'm here to learn from it.
- 2:47Nicole Laino: Maybe this is my lesson.
- 2:48Nicole Laino: Maybe this is my thing.
- 2:50Nicole Laino: And in today's episode, I want to talk about one of those key pieces in human design.
- 2:54Nicole Laino: There are obviously human design has a million aspects to it that can help you do this, but I'm going to speak to you about one of the most powerful, in my opinion, for giving you that perspective.
- 3:06Nicole Laino: So there is something in human design called.
- 3:10Nicole Laino: Well, and we're actually talking about this from more of a gene keys perspective because this comes from.
- 3:15Nicole Laino: This is very tied to astrology.
- 3:17Nicole Laino: It is not so much in the traditional human design language or universe.
- 3:24Nicole Laino: It's more of like that sister arm of the gene keys, where we get this from.
- 3:28Nicole Laino: And in gene keys, Richard Rudd calls this your vocation sphere.
- 3:33Nicole Laino: It is also known as your core wound.
- 3:35Nicole Laino: This is one of those things that when you first have a connection to it.
- 3:40Nicole Laino: And I remember when I first got into the gene keys and like everything with human design, when we started from that place of like, I need to know, I need to know.
- 3:48Nicole Laino: And we're looking for answer.
- 3:49Nicole Laino: We often don't find the answer because we're looking so hard for it.
- 3:52Nicole Laino: We're in, like, the wrong energy to receive what it is.
- 3:55Nicole Laino: That is the real wisdom here.
- 3:57Nicole Laino: Because we're looking for something finite.
- 3:59Nicole Laino: We're looking for something that can fix a problem.
- 4:02Nicole Laino: We're looking for something that will change things versus allowing the relationship to our design to change us, to show us and work from the inside out versus looking for this outward result from it.
- 4:17Nicole Laino: What's going to make me money?
- 4:18Nicole Laino: What's going to make me magnet?
- 4:20Nicole Laino: What's going to make my life easier Now?
- 4:22Nicole Laino: Yes, all of these things, they can do these things.
- 4:25Nicole Laino: Human design can open up doors within you that seem permanently locked or like you would never find them.
- 4:31Nicole Laino: But if you've listened to this show for a long time, you know that I always say that human design is not the treasure, you're the treasure.
- 4:37Nicole Laino: Human design is the map leading you to those spots within yourself that hold all the glory, all the secrets, all the keys to every door you want to unlock after it.
- 4:48Nicole Laino: That's the power of understanding yourself and exploring yourself through this lens.
- 4:55Nicole Laino: But when we put expectations on top of the system, on top of that exploration, what we often find is that we are in the mind game.
- 5:03Nicole Laino: So that, like, deeper work that this is really meant to do on you doesn't get deep enough.
- 5:08Nicole Laino: It doesn't penetrate that mental place that we're in.
- 5:12Nicole Laino: So my job as a human design coach and somebody who works with people on this is to get you past that mental stage.
- 5:19Nicole Laino: That's my first job, is like, can I get you past you needing this to work yesterday?
- 5:24Nicole Laino: Of course we would love it to work yesterday, but that's a tall order.
- 5:27Nicole Laino: That's a lot of pressure.
- 5:28Nicole Laino: Can I get you to release that pressure and can I get you out of that mental place where you're looking for this to do something and to recognize that?
- 5:37Nicole Laino: Because I'm telling you, don't make it need to do something.
- 5:40Nicole Laino: Releasing that need to make it do something does not mean that it won't do anything.
- 5:45Nicole Laino: Do you see what I'm saying there?
- 5:46Nicole Laino: That releasing that pressure on it of what you need it to be doesn't mean it won't do all the things that you want it to.
- 5:53Nicole Laino: You just aren't approaching it from, I need this from you.
- 5:56Nicole Laino: I need this from you.
- 5:57Nicole Laino: I need this from you.
- 5:59Nicole Laino: It's a relationship like anything else.
- 6:01Nicole Laino: When we come at a relationship, any kind of relationship, from a place of, like, true neediness, that energetic, like, give me what I need.
- 6:10Nicole Laino: And if you don't, then I don't trust you.
- 6:12Nicole Laino: That's not a relationship that is going to go very far.
- 6:15Nicole Laino: That's a relationship that's going to break apart or just develop into, like, serious codependency.
- 6:20Nicole Laino: But what I want to talk about today is this vocation sphere.
- 6:24Nicole Laino: It's also known as your unconscious.
- 6:25Nicole Laino: Mars is the placement.
- 6:27Nicole Laino: And it's so powerful because this is one of those keys.
- 6:31Nicole Laino: There are so many in human design.
- 6:33Nicole Laino: There's obviously your incarnation cross, but that's a bigger theme, right?
- 6:37Nicole Laino: The incarnation cross.
- 6:38Nicole Laino: Everybody is so enchanted with it and I understand why.
- 6:42Nicole Laino: It's like the purpose in our life, right?
- 6:44Nicole Laino: Who's not seduced by that?
- 6:46Nicole Laino: A little bit to know, like, we all want to know what we're here for.
- 6:49Nicole Laino: We all want to know why was I put on this earth.
- 6:52Nicole Laino: And the incarnation cross absolutely tells us what that path kind of is.
- 6:56Nicole Laino: It does let us know a little bit.
- 6:59Nicole Laino: And like I've said, some of them, they hit you over the head.
- 7:02Nicole Laino: And your incarnation cross is like, oh, my God.
- 7:04Nicole Laino: It's like, it's so true to who I am.
- 7:07Nicole Laino: Usually it's far more nuanced than that.
- 7:09Nicole Laino: Usually it's a little trickier than that you need to embody it a bit more.
- 7:14Nicole Laino: You need to again, not be looking for that answer from it in order to receive it, in order to really know that you're in it.
- 7:21Nicole Laino: The minute I get into a mental place with this stuff, even after all this time that I've been doing it, but don't think that I don't get scared, don't think that I don't have pressure, don't think that things don't work out and I wonder if they'll ever work out again.
- 7:33Nicole Laino: All of that stuff happens to me and when it does, I end up in that mental place and I might be looking for something to do, something for me.
- 7:41Nicole Laino: Strategies to work tomorrow.
- 7:42Nicole Laino: What am I going to do?
- 7:43Nicole Laino: How am I going to do it?
- 7:44Nicole Laino: And I go into that mental place which is where that quote unquote not self takes over and I become not me and I'm not the best of myself.
- 7:52Nicole Laino: And then those results that I want, that I'm pushing for get further and further away.
- 7:56Nicole Laino: So luckily, I'm telling you, it's not.
- 7:58Nicole Laino: That never happens to me.
- 7:59Nicole Laino: I just don't stay there very long.
- 8:00Nicole Laino: I can see it quickly and I recognize I'm like, I'm in that mental place.
- 8:05Nicole Laino: I have to release it, I have to expand into this.
- 8:09Nicole Laino: I can't contract into it.
- 8:11Nicole Laino: And that's one of those, like, kind of mastery of this stuff that we're all trying to achieve is like this ability to be in flow.
- 8:18Nicole Laino: Flow isn't just getting more shit done.
- 8:20Nicole Laino: I know that we think it is.
- 8:21Nicole Laino: Oh, I'm in flow.
- 8:22Nicole Laino: So I'm getting so much stuff done.
- 8:24Nicole Laino: It's wonderful when it happens.
- 8:26Nicole Laino: But that's not really what flow is.
- 8:27Nicole Laino: Flow is the ability to feel contraction and relax into it and find openness and find pathways that you didn't know existed until that happened.
- 8:39Nicole Laino: To allow when you're pushing, to allow something to happen, when you are relaxing too much to realize that it's time to take action and it requires some effort.
- 8:50Nicole Laino: This is flow.
- 8:52Nicole Laino: To never be too far one side of the spectrum and too far away from the other one.
- 8:57Nicole Laino: That's the power of being in flow.
- 8:59Nicole Laino: That's what it really means.
- 9:01Nicole Laino: It's to flow with things.
- 9:03Nicole Laino: Not for everything to work all the time.
- 9:05Nicole Laino: No, but it's the ability to make anything work, no matter what, without force, without constant action, without grinding.
- 9:12Nicole Laino: Can we allow?
- 9:13Nicole Laino: Can we learn to let things in?
- 9:15Nicole Laino: Can we be both masculine and feminine and balance that?
- 9:18Nicole Laino: So before I continue we are doing a masterclass on the vocation sphere on your unconscious Mars.
- 9:26Nicole Laino: And this is where I'm going to dig into all of this.
- 9:28Nicole Laino: So if you are interested in this topic, please come.

- 9:55Nicole Laino: So it's a really cool thing that we do.
- 9:56Nicole Laino: Every month we do a different masterclass.
- 9:58Nicole Laino: Let's talk about this.
- 10:00Nicole Laino: The vocation sphere.
- 10:01Nicole Laino: What's so powerful about this?
- 10:03Nicole Laino: I always say that the vocation sphere.
- 10:04Nicole Laino: When you start to learn about your unconscious Mars and you start to learn about this position, where you'll start is in a mental place.
- 10:10Nicole Laino: You'll be like trying to figure it out.
- 10:12Nicole Laino: And I always say, like, if you're trying to figure it out, you're going to miss it.
- 10:14Nicole Laino: You're going to miss what it's really about.
- 10:16Nicole Laino: You might think you know, but you don't, and that's okay.
- 10:20Nicole Laino: Sometimes that's just a part of the journey is being in the figure it out phase.
- 10:24Nicole Laino: But what the potential is to see this particular gate, this particular energy, as this is a big part of your life's journey.
- 10:34Nicole Laino: This is a big part.
- 10:34Nicole Laino: When I learned about my unconscious Mars, when I started to work with this, I immediately had some thoughts about it because this is one of my repeating gates.
- 10:43Nicole Laino: I have this gate in two positions in my chart.
- 10:47Nicole Laino: And it's a bigger energy for me.
- 10:49Nicole Laino: So it's kind of.
- 10:50Nicole Laino: It showed up a lot.
- 10:51Nicole Laino: Some things are more in our face in our chart than other things.
- 10:54Nicole Laino: Plus, Mars is kind of big energy as well.
- 10:56Nicole Laino: So that's part of why this is so powerful.
- 10:59Nicole Laino: Mars is our ability to take action.
- 11:01Nicole Laino: Our it is the initiating force, it's power.
- 11:05Nicole Laino: And so when we're talking about a wound, well, where is your power?
- 11:10Nicole Laino: Maybe not coming through in the most aligned or easy way due to your own issues, your own blocks that are keeping you from moving forward.
- 11:21Nicole Laino: So many people come to me and they say, you know, Nicole, I have such a hard time maintaining momentum.
- 11:27Nicole Laino: I have such a hard time being consistent.
- 11:30Nicole Laino: And these aren't people that don't get anything done.
- 11:32Nicole Laino: These aren't people that haven't built anything, but they know that they're capable of so much more.
- 11:38Nicole Laino: They know something inside them is holding them back from gaining things outside them.
- 11:43Nicole Laino: They know that there's some part of them inside that is keeping them from taking action consistently and moving in the direction of their dreams.
- 11:50Nicole Laino: It's a very frustrating thing, and I understand it deeply because I had the same problem.
- 11:56Nicole Laino: Why can't I move in the direction of my hopes, my dreams, what I know to be my potential, what I could feel in my bones?
- 12:05Nicole Laino: There is nothing more frustrating and heartbreaking than feeling like you have untapped potential, that you have this potential that is there for you, but you cannot touch it, you cannot reach it, or you cannot hold it.
- 12:18Nicole Laino: And this particular gate holds the secrets to that.
- 12:21Nicole Laino: I always say that this is the one that.
- 12:24Nicole Laino: If you've seen the movie the Sixth Sense, where the kid at the end, sorry, spoilers if you haven't seen it, but the movie's like, 20 years old, so if you haven't gotten to it yet, sorry, you could Fast forward for 10 seconds, but the movie, The Sixth Sense, at the end of the movie, you find out that there's, like, this big reveal at the end where you realize that one of the main characters was dead the whole time.
- 12:47Nicole Laino: And they kind of take you through the whole movie.
- 12:50Nicole Laino: You watched the whole movie not realizing it.
- 12:52Nicole Laino: And then when you realize it at the end, they do a, like, flashback of the whole movie where they show you all these scenes where all of the clues and Easter eggs were there entire time, letting you know that he was, in fact, dead.
- 13:08Nicole Laino: That's what the core wound is like to me.
- 13:10Nicole Laino: The vocation sphere.
- 13:12Nicole Laino: It is the.
- 13:13Nicole Laino: It's like once you learn it, you flash back through your whole life and you realize that every challenge, every lesson, all of them were tied to this shadow.
- 13:24Nicole Laino: And every win, every big milestone move in the right direction in your life was tied to the gift somehow.
- 13:32Nicole Laino: So we are going to be breaking all of this down in the masterclass because this is one of those things.
- 13:38Nicole Laino: We're going to go much deeper into what this all means, how you connect it with your chart, how you start to have a relationship to this and start to see it through.
- 13:48Nicole Laino: Not a lens of understanding.
- 13:49Nicole Laino: Like, you know, we use the word wound, and some people will think, like, oh, this is this thing that's wrong with me.
- 13:55Nicole Laino: No, A wound can be healed, and even when it's healed, it's a shadow.
- 14:00Nicole Laino: I like to Talk about it about as a shadow, because this is a tool you can use for your own mastery.
- 14:07Nicole Laino: But even more importantly, when we're in business, that mastery is something that attracts the correct people to you for exactly what you are here for.
- 14:19Nicole Laino: I know that everybody in my world, and I'll reveal kind of my connection with this and my attraction with my particular unconscious Mars, my vocation gate.
- 14:29Nicole Laino: In the masterclass, I will be talking about more of my reflections with this and how I suppose I could use the word use it, but I would say it's something that I'm very conscious of as being something that people need from me.
- 14:43Nicole Laino: And the more I master this in myself, the more I get people who need that and who I can actually help with it.
- 14:49Nicole Laino: This is true with all of our gifts in if you've been listening for a long time, I talk about the authority matrix.
- 14:55Nicole Laino: This is one of those gates in there, and this is a big player in that all of your gifts are things that once you transmute the shadow into the gift, you can start attracting people with it.
- 15:05Nicole Laino: I'm saying, this one is so powerful.
- 15:07Nicole Laino: This one is the one that's like, you will evolve with it for ages, through your whole lifetime.
- 15:15Nicole Laino: You will never be done elevating yourself through this thing.
- 15:21Nicole Laino: And there are so many questions that you can ask yourself that lead you deeper into yourself, into your magic, and will show you how you actually have something to offer people.
- 15:32Nicole Laino: This can be your offers, this can be your message.
- 15:35Nicole Laino: This is a very big attraction aspect for you of what people are going to be looking for from you.
- 15:42Nicole Laino: Specifically.
- 15:42Nicole Laino: I dig into this all the time when I'm doing my messaging, when I am talking to clients, when I'm talking to potential clients, I'm listening and I hear this gate come through all the time.
- 15:53Nicole Laino: And I can answer from actual wisdom that I have from this, because it's my story.
- 15:59Nicole Laino: So I started this episode off by saying that human design allows you to rewrite your story to see it through a different lens.
- 16:06Nicole Laino: This particular gate might be an area where you are beating yourself up.
- 16:11Nicole Laino: You are seeing this particular area as you being a failure in some way, as you maybe not being able to overcome something that you should, or maybe you feel like you were born with it and it's a flaw and you'll never be rid of it.
- 16:26Nicole Laino: I certainly did.
- 16:27Nicole Laino: That was my story.
- 16:28Nicole Laino: And when you see this, you will see yourself differently.
- 16:32Nicole Laino: When you see yourself differently, you'll start to work with this.
- 16:35Nicole Laino: Instead of brow beating yourself or shaming yourself for not being different for not being better.
- 16:42Nicole Laino: And when you can shift that, everything starts to change.
- 16:45Nicole Laino: Okay, so I'm going to leave this one here.
- 16:47Nicole Laino: I hope you come to the masterclass because that is where we're going to dig deep into how this is actually playing in your life with your unconscious Mars gate, your vocation.
- 16:57Nicole Laino: And we're going to dig into that inside the masterclass.
