  Welcome to Unshakeable with Human Design, the show dedicated to
• 0:05
  helping entrepreneurs use human design to shift from hustle to
• 0:09
  flow without sacrificing results.
• 0:11
  Come here to become an unshakeable human and build an unshakeable business
• 0:15
  according to your human design.
• 0:17
  I'm your host, Nicole

• 0:22
  Hello and welcome to Unshakeable with Human Design, everybody.
• 0:26
  I'm your host, Nicole Laino, and we are here with another
• 0:29
  installment of our Centers series.
• 0:32
  So we are going through all nine centers of the body graph, and we are
• 0:36
  dedicating an episode to each one in a series over the course of nine weeks.
• 0:41
  So every Wednesday, you will hear a Centers series episode until we
• 0:45
  are done with all of the centers.
• 0:47
  This is number five of the nine.
• 0:49
  We have already covered the root center, the sacral center, the
• 0:53
  solar plexus, and the spleen.
• 0:55
  If you haven't listened to those, please go back and listen to them and you can
• 0:58
  get this whole little mini course that we're giving you here on the centers.
• 1:02
  I like putting them in succession.
• 1:04
  We did a profile line series a few months ago and the response was so tremendous
• 1:09
  to it, people got so much value from it that we wanted to do another series
• 1:13
  and when we asked the listeners what series you wanted to be next, it was
• 1:18
  a resounding yes for the centers.
• 1:21
  that was definitely the one that everybody wanted to hear from next, so we are
• 1:24
  delivering it to you Here is the center series, and we are on number five.
• 1:28
  So, today we are going into, it's very hard to say what is the most important
• 1:34
  center, but this one definitely is at the top of the list of most important centers.
• 1:41
  We're going to talk about the G Center today.
• 1:44
  Honestly, this could be an hour's long episode just talking about this center.
• 1:48
  I promise you, don't worry.
• 1:49
  It's not going to be that.
• 1:50
  I try to keep these episodes short, but if you are looking to go deeper
• 1:54
  into this, if you're really into these centers, episodes that we're doing, and
• 1:59
  you want to go deep dive into this and understanding how it works for you, your
• 2:02
  chart, how all of the centers and all of the elements of your chart work together.
• 2:07
  You're going to want to get in on our Unshakeable Human
• 2:09
  program that we are running.
• 2:11
  We have a waitlist that is running for it.
• 2:13
  DM me the words embody waitlist on Instagram.
• 2:16
  I'm @NicoleLainoOfficial.
• 2:18
  DM me those words, we will get you onto that waitlist, or you can go to
• 2:21
  nicolelaino.com/embody-waitlist and you can enter into the waitlist right there.
• 2:28
  The waitlist is not a normal waitlist, if you join the waitlist and you join
• 2:32
  within the waitlist period that we give you we're giving you 50 percent off.
• 2:35
  It's pretty crazy.
• 2:36
  Also the first person to purchase, we are going to give 100 percent refund to.
• 2:40
  So if you know that this is for you and you want to buy right away, be there when
• 2:44
  the doors open, be that first person and you just may get the program for free.
• 2:48
  It's going to be a six week program, we're going to do this accelerated
• 2:51
  style, there's going to be live sessions with me and Q& As, so it's a really in
• 2:56
  depth little journey that we're going on, on becoming an unshakeable human,
• 3:00
  according to your human design, getting you to be completely authentically you.
• 3:05
  And start working through your deconditioning process, what
• 3:07
  that could look like for you.
• 3:09
  And getting you ready to build a business by human design.
• 3:13
  Because you cannot build a business by human design without
• 3:16
  doing the unshakeable human part.
• 3:18
  There's not the unshakeable business until you have the unshakeable human.
• 3:21
  This is that first step and we're going to take you through the whole thing.
• 3:24
  Super excited about that.
• 3:25
  Get on the wait list if you would like to get 50 percent
• 3:27
  off and join us in that program.
• 3:29
  So, without further ado, let's talk about the G center.
• 3:33
  Every center has a theme.
• 3:35
  That's what we're talking about.
• 3:36
  There are nine centers in the body graph and they represent different energetic
• 3:41
  themes that we either have consistent access to, which would mean it's
• 3:45
  defined, or we have inconsistent access to, which means it is a theme that we
• 3:51
  are receptive to, we are open to, it's a theme that comes on and off for us.
• 3:57
  We're not meant to be it all the time, but the things that are
• 4:00
  defined, we are meant to master.
• 4:03
  And there are things to be in alignment with, and to get comfortable with,
• 4:09
  to bring into our high expression because it's consistent for us and
• 4:12
  we want to be consistently good, not consistently low frequency, right?
• 4:17
  So it tells us what our lessons are.
• 4:19
  Now, the G Center is the center of identity, love, direction, and purpose.
• 4:26
  Those are the themes that are associated with the G Center.
• 4:30
  It's very unique.
• 4:31
  The centers have different themes, but they also have like little families.
• 4:35
  So there are two pressure centers.
• 4:37
  There are four motor centers.
• 4:39
  There are three awareness centers.
• 4:42
  There is the manifestation center, which is the throat, and then there's the G
• 4:46
  center, which stands all on its own.
• 4:48
  And the G center is the center that is the home of the magnetic monopole.
• 4:53
  The Human design centers are similar to the Hindu chakra system.
• 4:57
  So if you're familiar with chakras, like you've taken a yoga class, you're
• 5:00
  pretty familiar with chakras, I'm sure.
• 5:02
  And there's so much chakra stuff out there.
• 5:05
  If you do sound baths and things like that, they're
• 5:07
  tuned to the different chakras.
• 5:10
  But with human design, we don't have seven chakras, which the Hindu
• 5:13
  chakra system has seven centers.
• 5:16
  In human design, we look at it as nine energy centers and the G center
• 5:21
  would be associated with what is the heart chakra in the chakra system.
• 5:26
  Now in human design, we split the heart chakra into two centers.
• 5:31
  We split it into the G center and into the Ego/Heart/Will center.
• 5:36
  That is all one center with three names.
• 5:38
  We will discuss that in another episode, but today we're
• 5:41
  talking about the G center.
• 5:42
  As we split apart the ego and the G Center into two separate pieces, the way that
• 5:48
  I think about that, it's not a textbook definition at all, but just something that
• 5:52
  has helped me to understand the difference between these two is that the G center is
• 5:57
  more like the feminine side of the heart.
• 6:00
  And the ego has more of the masculine side of the heart.
• 6:05
  So one says purpose, love, direction, and the other says, put your heart into it.
• 6:10
  Commit, drive, take care of those who are close to you.
• 6:14
  Integrity, that's the heart center.
• 6:17
  That's the ego center.
• 6:18
  There's another side to our heart as humans.
• 6:21
  And this is the other energy, which is a little bit more open and enveloping and
• 6:25
  more feminine in that side of receptivity of love and putting out love as well.
• 6:31
  So identity, love, direction, and purpose.
• 6:35
  It is also the home of what we call the magnetic monopole.
• 6:39
  I tend to think of visualizations or ways of seeing these things through analogies.
• 6:45
  If you're in my programs, you know I'm constantly giving analogies,
• 6:48
  but one of the analogies that I have for the magnetic monopole.
• 6:51
  So again, G center sits where your heart is right at the center of your chest.
• 6:56
  And if you think about the magnetic monopole, sits at the heart of
• 6:59
  the center, and it is pulling, it's a magnet that only attracts.
• 7:03
  So it's pulling everything to you that is in alignment with your purpose and
• 7:10
  direction and identity in this life.
• 7:14
  All the love that you are meant to pull in, the types of love, the types of
• 7:18
  people, the types of experiences, the opportunities, all of those things that
• 7:23
  will help you on your path of living out your purpose, are being drawn to
• 7:29
  you through this magnetic monopole.
• 7:32
  And whether you are pulling lessons to you, if you're pulling
• 7:36
  things that feel like they are not necessarily what you want, but they
• 7:43
  are helping you to course correct.
• 7:46
  Ultimately the magnetic monopole when it's in a low expression or when we're
• 7:50
  in a low expression of our design we're going to pull more lessons to us.
• 7:53
  The magnet is going to start attracting things that are going to help you get
• 7:58
  back onto the path of your purpose.
• 8:01
  So that feeling like everything is working out in my favor, that everything
• 8:05
  is happening for me, not to me.
• 8:08
  This is kind of where that concept comes from, or where it you might think
• 8:12
  of it differently now that you know about this magnet that only attracts.
• 8:16
  We're always attracting what we need.
• 8:18
  Sometimes we need a lesson to get us to make a turn that we have not
• 8:21
  made through other paths on our own.
• 8:24
  So life pulls lessons to us.
• 8:26
  Life is this magnet.
• 8:28
  So the analogy that I always have is that the monopole, it's like if you had
• 8:34
  a life manager that was out there making things happen for you, pulling things to
• 8:41
  you and saying, you know what she needs?
• 8:44
  She needs this over here.
• 8:45
  She needs this person in her life.
• 8:47
  You know what she needs?
• 8:47
  This type of opportunity.
• 8:49
  And it goes out and it brings it to you.
• 8:52
  It cannot make you take the next step.
• 8:55
  It doesn't drive action.
• 8:58
  It gives you things to respond to, or brings things into your life.
• 9:03
  What you do from there is your choice.
• 9:07
  And if you're following your strategy and authority, you're taking those
• 9:10
  steps, and you're seeing those lessons, and you're seeing those opportunities
• 9:13
  and you're capitalizing on them.
• 9:15
  They are somehow serving you in some way.
• 9:19
  So that's my weird analogy, is that there is this little person in there
• 9:23
  that is pulling strings and that is making phone calls and that is directing
• 9:27
  things in your life and saying, you know what you need over here?
• 9:30
  You know what they need over here?
• 9:31
  You know what you need over here?
• 9:33
  Now if you have it defined, you're going to have that all the time.
• 9:36
  When you have it undefined, your manager may be lots of different
• 9:40
  people, may be lots of different things.
• 9:43
  It doesn't necessarily sit inside of you, it's going to be all the things
• 9:46
  that you have interaction with.
• 9:48
  So, that's going to bring us into the difference between a defined
• 9:51
  G Center and an undefined G Center, and how this might play.
• 9:55
  So, first of all, the G Center is made up of eight gates.
• 10:01
  And the eight gates all are gates of love, and then there are
• 10:04
  gates of direction and identity.
• 10:06
  And like every center, the gates are sub themes of the overall theme of the center.
• 10:12
  These are more specific themes, so sub categories.
• 10:16
  So we have a big category of love, direction, and identity.
• 10:20
  And then each of the gates represents some sort of specific love, identity,
• 10:26
  role, sense of direction, where are we looking, what direction are we going in?
• 10:32
  All of the gates have some connection to that, whether they are a love
• 10:36
  gate or they are a directional gate.
• 10:38
  And we're not going to get into the specifics of those, that's
• 10:41
  definitely on the deeper level that we will be covering in the program.
• 10:44
  But from a high level, just knowing that, if you have gates identified, if
• 10:50
  you have gates defined in your G Center, Then they either have to do with some
• 10:54
  form of love, some theme around love, love of the body, love of the spirit,
• 10:59
  different types of love or different types of direction or identity themes.
• 11:05
  All centers are about trusting something.
• 11:10
  They are all about building trust in some way with this theme.
• 11:15
  We're building trust in our version of that theme.
• 11:19
  What it means for us.
• 11:22
  So the G Center, what we're building trust in is trust in
• 11:25
  purpose, love, and direction.
• 11:27
  Now if you have a defined G, then you're going to be trusting that
• 11:32
  I know where I'm going, even when I don't know where I'm going.
• 11:37
  I trust that I'm loved, and I'm lovable.
• 11:41
  I trust that maybe I don't need other people to love me in order to
• 11:45
  feel totally and completely lovable.
• 11:48
  I don't need to see it.
• 11:50
  I have it inside of me.
• 11:53
  Now we all do.
• 11:54
  It's just going to be a consistent theme for those of you who have it defined.
• 11:58
  For those of you who have it undefined, we're building trust that
• 12:02
  I don't need to know where I'm going.
• 12:05
  I don't need to know who loves me.
• 12:08
  I'm loved everywhere I go.
• 12:10
  Because I get to slip into all of these different places and become that place.
• 12:15
  The Undefined G Center people, y'all are chameleons.
• 12:19
  You are meant to assimilate for a time, at least.
• 12:26
  And I don't mean assimilate in a diminished way.
• 12:31
  I mean that you are a reflection of the environment that you're in.
• 12:36
  So when you go to a party, you become that party.
• 12:40
  And you always fit in everywhere you go because you become some version
• 12:45
  of the thing that you're a part of.
• 12:47
  It's a wonderful, beautiful quality that these people have.
• 12:51
  As long as you're not feeling like you need to be like everybody else
• 12:57
  and then having a crisis of identity because you don't know who you are.
• 13:03
  So, one of them obviously sounds easier, doesn't it?
• 13:08
  I know who I am, I know where I'm going, I trust where I'm
• 13:11
  going, I trust that I'm lovable.
• 13:14
  Versus, I don't need to know, I get to be whoever I want to be, wherever I go,
• 13:21
  but don't get too confused and don't get too wrapped up in who I have to be.
• 13:26
  Because the truth is that people with an undefined G may never have
• 13:31
  a really strong sense of self.
• 13:34
  And the thing is that they're not really meant to.
• 13:37
  Now, again, that's not meant to sound defeating.
• 13:41
  It can be a tremendous strength, but it can sound defeating because
• 13:47
  we're taught to think that it's virtuous or a good thing to know
• 13:51
  where we're going, to know who we are.
• 13:54
  There are so many people out there who have undefined G Centers, who
• 13:58
  have very strong personalities, and absolutely have a sense of self.
• 14:05
  They allow that sense of self to change.
• 14:07
  They are not attached to it.
• 14:09
  And that's the big difference.
• 14:12
  And, I have a defined G center.
• 14:14
  And I've always thought that the people that I know with undefined G's and the
• 14:19
  people that I witness out in the world that are in the public sphere that I see
• 14:22
  with undefined G centers, there is this superpower when they are in alignment
• 14:28
  with who they are naturally, which is the rest of their design, which is who
• 14:33
  they are in general, not from this one place of this one center of identity.
• 14:39
  When they allow themselves to release themselves from having to be anything.
• 14:43
  They get to be everything.
• 14:46
  And that's pretty freaking powerful to me.
• 14:49
  It also seems really fun.
• 14:51
  So that undefined G, there's strengths in both of them.
• 14:55
  It's just like everything else with design, it's all about knowing how
• 15:00
  to work with your authenticity.
• 15:03
  I can't go places and pretend to be anything that I'm not.
• 15:09
  Cause I am something.
• 15:10
  I do have a strong sense of my own identity, of who I am and
• 15:14
  what role I'm here to play.
• 15:16
  What type of love I've got lots of to give, and where I'm meant
• 15:20
  to receive all of that stuff.
• 15:23
  And I do have a sense of direction and it's for me to trust different parts
• 15:28
  of my identity, and trust who I am, and trust to be that wherever I go.
• 15:35
  Someone with an undefined G has to trust that they're just picking up the pieces of
• 15:40
  the identities that they enjoy becoming.
• 15:44
  They're picking them up along the way, and they're allowing that
• 15:49
  to inform how they want to be.
• 15:52
  And they get to be everything all the time.
• 15:56
  It's a less linear path for those people.
• 15:59
  They have to trust that that magnetic monopole is going
• 16:03
  to pull them lots of places.
• 16:06
  That it's not going to be probably as direct a path.
• 16:11
  But it definitely does get to be more stable if they're
• 16:14
  following strategy and authority.
• 16:17
  And I think this is the big distinction here.
• 16:19
  Let me wrap this up with this.
• 16:22
  All openness is a strength if you're not operating from it.
• 16:28
  So if you're an open G, and you're obsessed with needing to know who you are,
• 16:34
  where you're going, and finding people to love you, then you will be pulled off your
• 16:39
  course, and that will become a tremendous conditioning force in your life.
• 16:45
  Because you won't be paying attention to what's truthful for you.
• 16:48
  You won't be paying attention to what is strong for you and defined for
• 16:53
  you and is authentic to who you are.
• 16:55
  You won't be following your strategy and authority 'cause you're so obsessed
• 16:59
  with figuring out where you should be, who you should be around, who you should
• 17:03
  be in life, where you going and other people are telling you that they know
• 17:07
  for you and you're listening to them because you just wanna know so bad.
• 17:13
  You feel like you need help so badly.
• 17:16
  That the minute someone comes into your life, they're deeply influencing you
• 17:20
  and you're just being swept along that path of where people tell you to go
• 17:25
  because you're so desperate to know.
• 17:27
  Because it feels so disorienting and so destabilizing to be
• 17:32
  moved by the wind a little bit.
• 17:35
  But you are meant to float on a breeze.
• 17:38
  And you are meant to fall into different situations with different people.
• 17:43
  And that will guide you.
• 17:45
  It's a different way that you are being led and you have to trust that.
• 17:50
  And I think that can be a little bit harder for people to trust in
• 17:53
  because it's not what we're taught.
• 17:54
  Majority rules, right?
• 17:56
  We're taught that it should be this way.
• 17:57
  You decide where you're going and you get there.
• 18:00
  What's your purpose?
• 18:01
  Go after it.
• 18:02
  Map out the course.
• 18:04
  Tell me who you want to be.
• 18:05
  What do you want to be when you grow up?
• 18:07
  That was a horrible question to ask people with undefined G's.
• 18:11
  Who are you going to be?
• 18:12
  Decide your identity.
• 18:13
  Now change your identity.
• 18:15
  The changing part's probably easy.
• 18:17
  The deciding part, not so easy for those people.
• 18:20
  Defined G?
• 18:21
  You have a different game.
• 18:23
  You are going to probably have a sense of where you're going and who you are.
• 18:27
  But the trick for you is going to be being able to up level that.
• 18:33
  And really be able to be aspirational in your quest for a bigger identity, for a
• 18:41
  bigger purpose, to really expand yourself.
• 18:44
  That can sometimes be the challenge.
• 18:46
  There's a challenge with every single thing in the chart.
• 18:51
  And when we listen to personal development and we read books that are on general
• 18:56
  themes, then we get a general theme that sounds really good, that makes a lot of
• 19:02
  sense, but then when we implement it, it can sometimes do harm rather than good.
• 19:09
  We're like, okay, I get this, but it doesn't really work
• 19:13
  for me, and I don't know why.
• 19:15
  And then we can have shame and all sorts of other things that get attached to
• 19:19
  that because something worked for so many people and it didn't work for us.
• 19:23
  That's why design is so powerful, because we get to see what's meant to work for us.
• 19:31
  And we get to take in all that general information and filter it
• 19:34
  through our design and say whether this will work for us or if we
• 19:37
  need to approach it differently.
• 19:38
  Can I take that same concept and apply it slightly differently
• 19:42
  because I'm like this?
• 19:44
  That's what makes this so powerful.
• 19:46
  But you do have to understand how your design works.
• 19:50
  You have to be able to have that understanding so that you can discern
• 19:54
  what is correct for you and what isn't.
• 19:57
  So you can take in information and not just go action it blindly because
• 20:02
  someone told you to, and instead come back to your truth, your inner authority,
• 20:08
  and maybe adapt things where you're like, there's something in this for me.
• 20:12
  I just think I need to approach it differently.
• 20:14
