  SPEAKER_01: Hello, hello, and welcome.
• 0:40
  SPEAKER_01: Oh my goodness.
• 0:41
  SPEAKER_01: I feel like every time I come on here, another one of my amazing friends is sitting across the virtual table from me, and we're ready to have these amazing conversations.
• 0:52
  SPEAKER_01: Today is no different.
• 0:54
  SPEAKER_01: Today I'm joined by my friend Christy Sullivan, who is literally one of my favorite people in the whole wide world.
• 1:02
  SPEAKER_01: And you know, I learned so much from Christy.
• 1:07
  SPEAKER_01: So as I'm reading her bio, I want you to reach for the pen, reach for the notepad, be prepared for all the information in the show notes.
• 1:16
  SPEAKER_01: Because if human design is new to you, welcome to your new obsession, as it has been mine.
• 1:23
  SPEAKER_01: But before we jump in, I really want to read Christy's bio because she is a fantastic woman.
• 1:30
  SPEAKER_01: So Christy is a human design and self-care expert, author and speaker on a mission to help busy women stop overworking and start overflowing.
• 1:41
  SPEAKER_01: She hosts a virtual community for female personal development junkies like herself, very good company today, to create better wellness, improve relationships, shift mindsets, and manifest more success, wealth, and freedom to live their best life by design.
• 1:58
  SPEAKER_01: Christy is an international speaker, workshop retreat teacher, and lead author of a new best-selling Amazon book called Stop Overworking and Start Overflowing: 25 Ways to Transform Your Life Using Human Design, launched in October 2021, perfect, with 25 other human design practitioners.
• 2:18

• 2:34
  SPEAKER_01: You guys, I can't even tell you enough wonderful things about Christy.
• 2:39
  SPEAKER_01: And so you can get from her bio that she's a busy lady.
• 2:42
  SPEAKER_01: She's out there in the universe.
• 2:44
  SPEAKER_01: But the most important thing I want you to know is how generous Christy is with her time and her spirit and her energy.
• 2:52
  SPEAKER_01: I adore this woman.
• 2:53
  SPEAKER_01: Christy, thank you so much for coming on the show.
• 2:56
  SPEAKER_01: Oh my gosh.
• 2:57
  SPEAKER_00: I am gonna listen to that again and probably cry.
• 3:00
  SPEAKER_00: You should.
• 3:00
  SPEAKER_00: I might cry.
• 3:01
  SPEAKER_00: It's a love fest.
• 3:02
  SPEAKER_00: It's a true, true love fest.
• 3:04
  SPEAKER_02: That was so awesome.
• 3:05
  SPEAKER_02: And and many times I wanted to shout out Ditto, Ditto.
• 3:08
  SPEAKER_02: Like, I've been waiting two months for like to being together on this podcast when you announced that you were doing it back in the fall.
• 3:16
  SPEAKER_02: Remember, we were like, oh, we definitely did talk about human design.
• 3:19
  SPEAKER_02: And then like I was like, what?
• 3:21
  SPEAKER_02: You're booked for a few months?
• 3:23
  SPEAKER_02: Like, you are just doing an amazing job with this too and giving up your your own time and energy.
• 3:27
  SPEAKER_02: It's amazing.
• 3:28
  SPEAKER_01: Oh my gosh.
• 3:29
  SPEAKER_01: It's a total true love fest.
• 3:32
  SPEAKER_01: And if you are not in a community of especially women who are holding each other up this way, then talk to Christy and I and get in with this beautiful community because the love is absolutely true.
• 3:45
  SPEAKER_01: So Christy and I sat down just a couple months ago, and I was like finally like I had dabbled in human design and we had talked about it, but I actually booked a session with her.
• 3:57
  SPEAKER_01: It was in November, it was my birthday month.
• 3:59
  SPEAKER_01: Um, and we went over three sessions and really dove deeply into human in my human design.
• 4:07
  SPEAKER_01: So I'm gonna give you a minute before we go ballistic into that, because I could totally make this a session about me as a manifesting generator of a one-three.
• 4:18
  SPEAKER_01: So, Christy, for anybody who's on and they're like, what on earth is human design?
• 4:24
  SPEAKER_01: Give us like your best like stamp on human design.
• 4:28
  SPEAKER_01: What is it?
• 4:30
  SPEAKER_02: Well, I've got a few different ways to describe it, but I always start by saying it is your energetic blueprint based on your birth date.
• 4:39
  SPEAKER_02: So it is literally this body chart that shows your energy centers and how they were encoded, so to speak, according to your birth date.
• 4:51
  SPEAKER_02: I also say it's astrology on steroids, because in a way, we all know astrology is based on your birth date.
• 4:57
  SPEAKER_02: And human design does take into account uh astrology as well as the chakra system, which is the energy system, and Kabbalah and Aiching as well.
• 5:07
  SPEAKER_02: So it kind of brings all them together.
• 5:10
  SPEAKER_02: The other way I describe it is that um the lately I would I've been saying, you know, we have a soul purpose here.
• 5:17
  SPEAKER_02: We're on a journey, on a path with our soul.
• 5:20
  SPEAKER_02: And human design is the car that you're driving on that road.
• 5:24
  SPEAKER_02: And when you recognize the model that you are, and we'll talk about that, as well as what's under the hood and how you operate, when you start to accept the kind of car you're driving, things get a lot easier.
• 5:38
  SPEAKER_02: You can maintain that car better, you can have a much different and uh flowing journey.
• 5:44
  SPEAKER_02: And I think that's what human design is.
• 5:46
  SPEAKER_02: It's an amazing tool that complements a lot of other things as well.
• 5:49
  SPEAKER_02: But that's my description.
• 5:51
  SPEAKER_01: I think that's a perfect description, and I I totally agree with you.
• 5:55
  SPEAKER_01: The the idea of this energetic blueprint, it's a framework, it's a way of delving into a better understanding of yourself, and it is super fun.
• 6:06
  SPEAKER_01: So if you've ever, if you're I I say it's like one of those things when you know you were a teenager and they had those magazines, and like it would have quizzes to find out what kind of like what kind of fashion girl are you, or whatever it was.
• 6:19
  SPEAKER_01: But I feel like that's what human design, that excitement that I felt as a teenager to discover myself is how I feel about human design.
• 6:27
  SPEAKER_01: And, you know, learning that so many of the things that I so naturally gravitated toward feel in alignment with my human design, and that often what had happened in my life is there was conditioning or things that happened outside of myself that really had me kind of at odds with who I truly was, and that really for me caused that sense of like overworking, people pleasing, like feeling like the need to fit in and do it like everybody else.
• 7:06
  SPEAKER_01: And that for me is my favorite part about human design, that you can sort of just like take this deep breath and be like, oh, it's just how I am.
• 7:18
  SPEAKER_02: Yes.
• 7:19
  SPEAKER_02: And you're right.
• 7:20
  SPEAKER_02: I think um those personality assessments, like if you haven't done one uh yet in your lifetime, you definitely that's it, that's very interesting to take that.
• 7:31
  SPEAKER_02: And yet I also say personality assessments um take into account your life experiences, which are really important and um a part of who you are in a sense.
• 7:42
  SPEAKER_02: Human design is at the core, and the personality that you uh grow and develop over your lifetime is sort of the layers on top.
• 7:50
  SPEAKER_02: And the reason for that is, like you said earlier, you are influenced by the conditioning and programming that is coming to you, at you from your family, your parents, from school, from your teachers, from even things like media and marketing.
• 8:10
  SPEAKER_02: So those are uh ways of being that you take in along your journey and you can choose sometimes to follow them.
• 8:19
  SPEAKER_02: Sometimes they serve you, but sometimes it's important to recognize what are those traits or beliefs that don't serve us.
• 8:26
  SPEAKER_02: And so if you're on a personal growth journey or uh personal development junkies, I call it like you and I, we we already have started to uncover some of that, especially if you're in like midlife and and even even the younger generation, like I have these amazing nieces and nephews, and they're already like exploring that.
• 8:45
  SPEAKER_02: And um, when you recognize who you truly are or what ways feel good to you, you're most likely already aligning with your human design or or connecting to it.
• 8:56
  SPEAKER_02: And then when you discover the tool, or I say it discovers you, then there's more validation of like, yeah, that is me.
• 9:04
  SPEAKER_02: And I can honor it and I can take that deep breath and be like, okay, I'm good.
• 9:08
  SPEAKER_02: I don't have to fix anything, I don't have to think something's wrong with me.
• 9:13
  SPEAKER_02: You accept yourself more and more, and there's again a uniqueness that you that you're able to embrace.
• 9:20
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I totally, yes.
• 9:22
  SPEAKER_01: And and I think it it is that piece of like just feeling more comfortable in your own skin, more aligned with who you truly are at your core.
• 9:36
  SPEAKER_01: Um, and I love that about it.
• 9:38
  SPEAKER_01: So I'm sure people are like, well, how do I know?
• 9:40
  SPEAKER_01: Like you Kelly said at the outset, manifesting generator, what the heck is that?
• 9:45
  SPEAKER_01: What does that mean?
• 9:46
  SPEAKER_01: What are what are the energy types just to kind of put an umbrella over it for people?
• 9:52
  SPEAKER_02: That's always a good place to start.
• 9:53
  SPEAKER_02: And I always say you can go online and find a lot of information about human design.
• 9:59
  SPEAKER_02: It's a rabbit hole, but at the starting point, if you go to um any of the websites where you input your birth date, it will start with here is your energy type.
• 10:10
  SPEAKER_02: And there are five categories, I call it.
• 10:13
  SPEAKER_02: Um, and remember though, that's just sort of the car model, the outside of what the car, or not even outside what it looks like, but the manufacturer will call it.
• 10:21
  SPEAKER_02: And then we're very uniquely built.
• 10:23
  SPEAKER_02: There's actually two billion combinations, but we start with the energy type because it's a it's a good starting point, like the first layer.
• 10:31
  SPEAKER_02: So the majority of people, the majority of society, are manifesting generators like you or generators like me.
• 10:39
  SPEAKER_02: Um, I group those two together as the generator type.
• 10:43
  SPEAKER_02: And the reason is because um both of those types, and again, they make up the majority of the population, 70%.
• 10:51
  SPEAKER_02: These are the um type of energy where if we're feeling good, we're feeling rested, we could go all day.
• 10:59
  SPEAKER_02: We are busy doing different things, um, responding to different things, following through, doing tasks.
• 11:07
  SPEAKER_02: And if we're doing the right kind of things, we enjoy it.
• 11:11
  SPEAKER_02: It actually almost fuels our energy to be doing things that feel good to us.
• 11:16
  SPEAKER_02: If you're doing the right kind of work, if you're connecting with your family and doing activities that you enjoy, also even doing self-care that you enjoy.
• 11:25
  SPEAKER_02: But we have what's called sustainable workforce and life force.
• 11:29
  SPEAKER_02: We're generators, we can generate.
• 11:31
  SPEAKER_02: The other categories are really not built that same way with that same sacral energy.
• 11:39
  SPEAKER_02: And that just means if you look back at the car analogy, like instead of this large car battery that the generator types have, the other types have a bit smaller batteries.
• 11:50
  SPEAKER_02: So they need to just be mindful of how they're using their energy and making sure that they recharge and rest.
• 11:55
  SPEAKER_02: And those three categories, by the way, are manifestors who are nine percent of the population, projectors, who are 20% of the population, and then reflectors, which are really rare.
• 12:08
  SPEAKER_02: They're only 1% of the population.
• 12:10
  SPEAKER_02: Let me describe the projector and um the manifestor type.
• 12:16
  SPEAKER_02: Um, reflectors are really, again, really rare, so I don't get too much into that, but manifestors are are the energy of creating and initiating.
• 12:27
  SPEAKER_02: And um projectors are here to give wisdom, wisdom, and insight and guide the other energy types.
• 12:36
  SPEAKER_02: So if we were looking at the analogy again of the car, and we'd had the manifestor who decided, you know what, we need to go on a car ride.
• 12:45
  SPEAKER_02: Let's get in the car today and let's head out for a road trip for a few hours.
• 12:50
  SPEAKER_02: And the generator would would follow that up.
• 12:53
  SPEAKER_02: They would they would make sure that there's enough gas in the car and snacks to feed everybody and uh what's the temperature set at?
• 13:02
  SPEAKER_02: And then you would have the projector type who would be in the car saying, Well, which way are we going?
• 13:06
  SPEAKER_02: Are we taking the scenic route or are we getting on the highway?
• 13:10
  SPEAKER_02: And so, you know, everybody kind of collaborates together if if we're gonna have a nice car ride.
• 13:17
  SPEAKER_02: We need different roles, and and that's really what's beautiful that the different energy types can coexist together at once we honor that we each have a little bit different role and energy.
• 13:27
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I love that.
• 13:29
  SPEAKER_01: And I I my favorite thing is to ask people what their human design is, and then of course, when they when they don't know what that is, put them in the right direction to learn.
• 13:37
  SPEAKER_01: But it's it's really cool to learn uh energy types.
• 13:42
  SPEAKER_01: And, you know, of course, as soon as I got mine, I had to ask like my friends, like, okay, when's your birthday?
• 13:48
  SPEAKER_01: Let's let's put this in.
• 13:49
  SPEAKER_01: Let me find out.
• 13:49
  SPEAKER_01: What are you?
• 13:50
  SPEAKER_01: Are you a manifesting generator like me?
• 13:52
  SPEAKER_01: And then, you know, one of my best friends is a projector.
• 13:54
  SPEAKER_01: And I was like, oh, that's so interesting.
• 13:57
  SPEAKER_01: Like just realizing the different ways that we operate in the world and how that's influenced by our human design.
• 14:06
  SPEAKER_02: I heard once that it's like just human nature that we want to categorize and put people into certain boxes and labels.
• 14:15
  SPEAKER_02: And it's just part of sort of our survival to know, like, okay, that person is that person, you know, that type.
• 14:23
  SPEAKER_02: What I want to say about human design is a lot of people do that.
• 14:27
  SPEAKER_02: They're like looking up their family, their friends.
• 14:29
  SPEAKER_02: That's what I did six years ago when I discovered this.
• 14:32
  SPEAKER_02: I'm like inputting everybody and like checking them out.
• 14:36
  SPEAKER_02: But as you study it, and it is, I think, a lifelong study because there's so many layers and um looking at the information, it's it's complex.
• 14:47
  SPEAKER_02: So it takes time, takes time to learn it, to embody it.
• 14:52
  SPEAKER_02: And I call I call it experimenting, or others I know in in human design call it experimenting.
• 14:58
  SPEAKER_02: That um when you recognize your uh unique blueprint and get to know yourself and all the layers beyond just that category we start with, then it just defines you more and more.
• 15:13
  SPEAKER_02: You be you get to know yourself on a much deeper level, and then you experiment to see, well, does this really describe who I am?
• 15:21
  SPEAKER_02: What if I do do it things just this way?
• 15:24
  SPEAKER_02: How will I feel?
• 15:25
  SPEAKER_02: What will the results be?
• 15:27
  SPEAKER_02: And you know, there's no right or wrong, nothing to be fixed in human design.
• 15:32
  SPEAKER_02: Um, your design never changes, um, but it's how you express it, how you choose to express it and how you choose to make decisions based on uh the information.
• 15:43
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I I think that's that's so true.
• 15:47
  SPEAKER_01: I love experimenting with human design.
• 15:50
  SPEAKER_01: And I definitely, I think, like at the beginning was like, okay, what does it mean that I'm a manifesting generator?
• 15:54
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, what does it mean that I'm a one-three?
• 15:56
  SPEAKER_01: What does it mean we go into, you know, my my strategy, my authority, you know, those things.
• 16:03
  SPEAKER_01: And what does that mean for me?
• 16:04
  SPEAKER_01: How do how do I operate with that?
• 16:06
  SPEAKER_01: But now for me, it's like, ooh, which gates do I have and which channels and and my my cross and you know, all these all these different pieces of it.
• 16:17
  SPEAKER_01: But I think I think that's the true sign of a really good human design person who's supporting you expert, is they're not telling you to live by your design.
• 16:29
  SPEAKER_01: They're telling you according to your birth date, this is your energetic blueprint.
• 16:34
  SPEAKER_01: But how you actually operate and take that and put it to work is really up to you as an individual.
• 16:40
  SPEAKER_01: I think that is a real distinction.
• 16:42
  SPEAKER_01: So, you know, um, I think that's important.
• 16:47
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and and to give an example, okay, I'm a generator and you're a manifesting generator.
• 16:53
  SPEAKER_02: And there is typically a difference between the two in that we both are here to do work or to be busy and get things done, um, uh following through, responding to things.
• 17:08
  SPEAKER_02: But you do it in a little bit faster way, or you also might do it in a way that's like juggling a few things at a time, whereas I might take things more slowly and focus on one thing at a time.
• 17:21
  SPEAKER_02: But if we were conditioned or brought up differently, um you maybe don't like juggling things, or maybe I like to take shortcuts like the manifesting generator.
• 17:32
  SPEAKER_02: And there's a saying that like there's a little bit of each type in us, especially when you dive into what I call the weeds of the rabbit hole, when you look at things like what's called gates and channels, which are really more specific aspects.
• 17:49
  SPEAKER_02: Um, some are like the projector, some are um, you know, more like the manifester.
• 17:55
  SPEAKER_02: And and again, there's so many different combinations.
• 17:59
  SPEAKER_02: So getting to know this design that you are, then questioning like, did I have an upbringing that that did um coincide with this, or was it um not in alignment with this?
• 18:13
  SPEAKER_02: And really figuring out who you are and that alignment of who you are in the present and and what serves you is really important.
• 18:21
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah, definitely.
• 18:24
  SPEAKER_01: Because I think you could feel like you're not in alignment or that, oh, this means I should be doing this.
• 18:34
  SPEAKER_01: And and I also think it's important because it I could definitely choose some of the aspects of being a manifesting generator to be excuses, you know, like, well, I just don't do it that way.
• 18:47
  SPEAKER_01: But that doesn't mean that you can't also function in a more linear fashion or put things together in a way.
• 18:55
  SPEAKER_01: For me, I think what was super important for me was more um my authority and my um my strategy and also understanding um, you know, the difference between satisfaction and frustration and how those affect me.
• 19:17
  SPEAKER_01: So maybe we could dive a little into those because I think those are also really important elements that I think were some of the bigger shifts that I made um in applying human design to my life.
• 19:32
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, um, I love this.
• 19:33
  SPEAKER_02: Um, I love doing what I call the hot seat with hosts.
• 19:37
  SPEAKER_02: And um, for your listeners out there, I have Kelly's chart behind the scenes, so um, I could speak to her blueprint.
• 19:44
  SPEAKER_02: Um and yeah, let's let's dive a little bit into it.
• 19:48
  SPEAKER_02: So we know that you're a manifesting generator.
• 19:51
  SPEAKER_02: And uh what's interesting, I want to mention, because it just today I had uh spoken at an event and there were a couple different types, and one person in particular particular, she had mentioned she had um previous to my talk, she mentioned she had some thyroid issues.
• 20:08
  SPEAKER_02: And then when we were looking at some charts, she mentioned she was um manifesting generator, and I said, Well, manifesting generators again move quickly, and they need to use up that energy and to sort of make sure that they're they're getting movement every day, that that energy is not being like held in.
• 20:31
  SPEAKER_02: If it is, it's like a lightning bolt in a glass jar and it gets lodged potentially in the throat, in the thyroid, affecting the thyroid.
• 20:40
  SPEAKER_02: And I was like, wow, that's interesting.
• 20:43
  SPEAKER_02: Now, not every manifesting generator that has to happen to, but in her particular case, it could have.
• 20:48
  SPEAKER_02: And I know that she had sort of a uh upbringing where a lot of suppressed things and voice and probably um she was limited in in had a lot of rules, let's say it.
• 21:01
  SPEAKER_02: And um, for you, another aspect is that um, well, we call it the authority, and this is uh how you make decisions, and it's again it's different for not just different types, but your unique blueprint.
• 22:39
  SPEAKER_02: In your case, it's the emotional center that rules this.
• 22:44
  SPEAKER_02: And I want to also make sure to say we all are conditioned and programmed to use the mind for thinking.
• 22:52
  SPEAKER_02: And really, the mind, there's crazy.
• 22:59
  SPEAKER_02: Well, and some of us have, yeah, open heads.
• 23:00
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 23:01
  SPEAKER_00: Open head and ajna, there's there's nothing up here.
• 23:04
  SPEAKER_00: There is there's no good that comes from trying to make a decision up here.
• 23:09
  SPEAKER_02: I I tell people this all the time that you know the head is really meant for holding information and um, you know, expressing ways, you know, expressing yourself, but the decision making is in the body.
• 23:25
  SPEAKER_02: And that goes for every blueprint.
• 23:28
  SPEAKER_02: Um, yours specifically is around the emotional center, and about 50% of the people have a defined emotional center, which just means again, we don't have to get into the technical, but what it really means is that you have an emotional wave that you typically experience highs and lows.
• 23:47
  SPEAKER_02: Someone also said this to me recently how um she felt like she needed to take medication because when you're feeling those highs.
• 23:58
  SPEAKER_02: And lows.
• 23:59
  SPEAKER_02: Um we don't always have support for that.
• 24:03
  SPEAKER_02: And she actually felt worse.
• 24:06
  SPEAKER_02: She didn't like how she couldn't cry or laugh as much as she used to, or as expressively.
• 24:14
  SPEAKER_02: So she had a defined emotional center and needed that wave for her to uh not only make decisions, but for her to actually feel you know what she was feeling and notice a pattern of what she was feeling.
• 24:32
  SPEAKER_02: So her emotional or your emotional center, I should say, um, it needs time to make a decision.
• 24:38
  SPEAKER_02: It's also not necessarily in the moment, it's more over time, like sleeping on it is important uh to your decision-making process.
• 24:49
  SPEAKER_02: If you can to, you know, delay in a way, you know, if you're excited about something, say, can I get back to you?
• 24:56
  SPEAKER_02: And to delay a decision until you feel you've reached the clarity of that feeling in you.
• 25:02
  SPEAKER_01: Does that make sense?
• 25:03
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, it makes so much sense.
• 25:05
  SPEAKER_01: Kelly, before understanding that and really starting to apply it, you know, there was understanding it and then there was actually applying it.
• 25:12
  SPEAKER_01: You know, before I would make all of my decisions emotionally from like the emotional high of like, this is so exciting, I'm gonna say yes.
• 25:24
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's like the meme of like somebody who, you know, makes plans and then regrets the plans when it's time to do the plans.
• 25:32
  SPEAKER_01: So that would be that would be me like, oh, I committed and I don't really want to do it.
• 25:38
  SPEAKER_01: I said I would do it and I don't really want to do it.
• 25:41
  SPEAKER_01: And I I had a like true habit of doing this and getting into things and being like, I don't really, I don't resonate, I don't want to do this anymore.
• 25:51
  SPEAKER_01: Um, so I've really started to allow for like to feel it like, okay, if I do this, like I feel really excited about it now.
• 26:01
  SPEAKER_01: And then like my emotional wave could be 24 hours, could be 48, whatever it is.
• 26:06
  SPEAKER_01: But then getting into that like low moment of like, oh my God, I don't really want to do this.
• 26:11
  SPEAKER_01: This doesn't feel right, and then kind of like it's almost like I go whoop, I go, whoa, go low, and then I come to the middle, and then when I make decisions, it's there's no emotion at all, which is not what I thought it would be.
• 26:25
  SPEAKER_01: I really thought it would be kind of like emotional, but it's not.
• 26:29
  SPEAKER_01: When I finally make a decision, it's from a place of like knowing that this is the right decision, feeling it intuitively, and then saying, this is what I'm gonna do.
• 26:38
  SPEAKER_01: And sometimes if I don't have a clear sense, then I know what what I'm really feeling is that it's a not now, maybe later, I don't know, but I have to wait for it to cycle back through.
• 26:56
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and I've heard this phrase a lot.
• 26:58
  SPEAKER_02: If it's not a hell yes, then it's a no, it's not a no, or at least a not now.
• 27:04
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 27:05
  SPEAKER_02: Exactly.
• 27:05
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah.
• 27:07
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and so so understanding for you, for example, that the emotional center plays a key role.
• 27:13
  SPEAKER_02: And um, like you said, the the head, um this center for you is open.
• 27:20
  SPEAKER_02: And um when you have what's called an open center, it's usually that we're taking in the energy from around us, from people or from the environment.
• 27:32
  SPEAKER_02: The open head, and many people, the majority of the population have open heads, they are just easy, easily influenced by the information that's coming at them.
• 27:44
  SPEAKER_02: They're gonna have a lot of questions.
• 27:46
  SPEAKER_02: If they pick up questions, they'll have a lot of ideas because they're picking them up from other places.
• 27:52
  SPEAKER_02: And even they may have um changing beliefs.
• 27:57
  SPEAKER_02: And that can be okay because that's like open-mindedness, that's understanding that things can be seen and perceived in many different ways.
• 28:05
  SPEAKER_02: Um, so there's always like two sides to the coin, right?
• 28:08
  SPEAKER_02: So, like an open head, we know is not great for decision making, but it can be great for understanding what other people think.
• 28:17
  SPEAKER_02: And um, again, maybe perceiving things in a different way or being open to the idea that you know things can be looked out in many different ways.
• 28:27
  SPEAKER_02: Um, so so that can be a gift, especially for somebody um who's a coach or maybe a therapist um or even podcasting.
• 28:36
  SPEAKER_02: You kind of you're kind of doing the show like based on like, well, whatever, let's see what the information brings shows us and where we're gonna go with it.
• 28:45
  SPEAKER_01: Total, 100%.
• 28:46
  SPEAKER_01: Yes.
• 28:46
  SPEAKER_01: I'm so so open-minded and so like uh easily influenced, but not in a bad way.
• 28:53
  SPEAKER_01: Like in in like I I can like get into what other people are thinking and feeling very easily.
• 29:01
  SPEAKER_01: And I'm also pretty strong empath, like I feel what other people are feeling.
• 29:06
  SPEAKER_01: So being open-minded, understanding other people, I have this kind of very global sense of others, you know, and um it's hard for me to often decide how I like my stand on something.
• 29:20
  SPEAKER_01: Like when you're talking about things that are polarized or opinions, I'm always like, I don't know, everybody's got good ideas, yeah.
• 29:29
  SPEAKER_02: And and you know, sometimes people are like, I'm gonna base it on the facts and not on the ideas or the opinions, and I really want to look at the facts and and such.
• 29:38
  SPEAKER_02: Another, another thing to your aspect uh to your chart um is that you also not in addition to the open head, have an open root center.
• 29:47
  SPEAKER_02: And by the way, um when uh the design shows open again centers, those are the places that we do uh again feel and feel that empathicness that we're taking, not necessarily taking on um negative energy, we're even feeling positive, but we're noticing the feelings coming from around us.
• 30:06
  SPEAKER_02: And you have an open root, so you're going to feel pressure from others, but then you put it on yourself, pressure to do things, pressure to like complete tasks and make sure that everything's checked off your list um before you you know put your head on the pillow.
• 30:25
  SPEAKER_02: And with the open head and the root, it's called having a pressure center or pressure cooker um uh personality.
• 30:33
  SPEAKER_02: How does that sound for you?
• 30:35
  SPEAKER_01: That's my life.
• 30:38
  SPEAKER_01: There's always there's always this like standing pressure, it's always there.
• 30:43
  SPEAKER_01: But I've sort of learned to sort of be playful with it and curious about it and like that's interesting.
• 30:49
  SPEAKER_01: Like, why am I feeling that?
• 30:51
  SPEAKER_01: Um, and and I've talked about it before on on this podcast, but I sort of hit a point in October this past fall where I was like, I just need a break.
• 31:01
  SPEAKER_01: I don't want to do anything, I don't want to feel like I need to complete anything or participate in anything.
• 31:06
  SPEAKER_01: I don't know what I want to do going forward.
• 31:09
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, I went to work, I took care of my family, like I did all the things I was supposed to keep doing, but I didn't do anything extra really.
• 31:16
  SPEAKER_01: And in November, my gut was like, it's time to start the podcast, let's do it.
• 31:22
  SPEAKER_01: And I was like, okay, let's do it.
• 31:24
  SPEAKER_01: You know, so I think that stepping off of that sense of pressure and doing all the things that kind of got to a point that I felt like, is this really what I want to be doing?
• 31:35
  SPEAKER_01: Am I doing it because I feel the pressure from other people to be doing it?
• 31:40
  SPEAKER_01: Um, and so that was like my like, what if I throw the brakes on completely?
• 31:45
  SPEAKER_01: What's gonna happen?
• 31:46
  SPEAKER_01: That was definitely like a big experiment, right?
• 31:49
  SPEAKER_01: To see, like, and I wasn't burnt out, which is interesting.
• 31:53
  SPEAKER_01: And I've heard other people talk about this who are really into human design, like feeling like burnt out, but not in a sense of like I wasn't not taking care of myself and like in like that overwhelm state, but just in the like not feeling the zest and the the maybe it's the satisfaction, perhaps, like not feeling the full satisfaction in things, and kind of like not even frustrated, but just like uh I don't know, I didn't know how I wanted to go.
• 32:27
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, this is an awesome area to get into because I've been talking about this lately.
• 32:33
  SPEAKER_02: There's a phrase called functional burnout.
• 32:36
  SPEAKER_02: So when we think of burnout, we think of somebody who's just lost their, you know, energy and vitality and they're barely making it out of bed, um, just tired, um, you know, uh fatigued.
• 32:52
  SPEAKER_02: But functional burnout is you're taking care of yourself and you're doing all the things that you think you need to do or should do, and yet you're just like, what am I doing?
• 33:04
  SPEAKER_02: Why am I doing this?
• 33:06
  SPEAKER_02: And it doesn't feel great.
• 33:09
  SPEAKER_02: It may be you're not doing the right kind of work if you're a generator.
• 33:14
  SPEAKER_02: It may be if you're a projector that you're pushing things and initiating things.
• 33:19
  SPEAKER_02: If you're a manifester, it's that you're not giving yourself the downtime and alone time to be creative.
• 33:27
  SPEAKER_02: Um, and and for all the types, I mean, we're just so busy and receiving so much information.
• 33:38
  SPEAKER_02: And um, as we know, the last few years have been about slowing down, and I think it's for everyone out there to benefit from that because um we all have functional burnout, I think, more across the board than almost any you know, regular burnout.
• 33:58
  SPEAKER_02: I think anybody can feel that functional burnout at some point in their life.
• 34:03
  SPEAKER_02: So good for you for like slowing down.
• 34:05
  SPEAKER_02: And what I want people to hear is even from your story, that you have to have a level of trust that slowing down is going to actually help you move forward so much easier and effortlessly and with so much more like results.
• 34:23
  SPEAKER_02: And I don't want to mean like results like you're measuring it, but like you're just gonna feel like wow, I'm so glad you no one's gonna regret taking that downtime, right?
• 34:34
  SPEAKER_01: I don't, I don't at all.
• 34:36
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, I honestly think it's exactly what I needed to do for some clarity, you know, and really to honor myself and check in with is this the direction I want to be going?
• 34:48
  SPEAKER_01: And now in in hindsight, taking a month, I mean, I didn't I didn't miss anything.
• 34:53
  SPEAKER_01: And if I did, it wasn't for me anyway.
• 34:55
  SPEAKER_01: You know, so I think that is a big piece of it, the faith and the trust and the like true surrender to the grand plan or the universe or what your soul's purpose, whatever way you want to look at it, but being able to do that and then come back and just start from ground zero and feel excited about that, you know, like that, if that could be an example for anybody to just be like, if you're not living into the best aspect of your life and you're not feeling it, what if you just slow down, step back, stop doing some things?
• 35:35
  SPEAKER_01: Um, I always used to be like, no, you can't quit, but like maybe, maybe sometimes you can.
• 35:41
  SPEAKER_01: You can always come back to things, but figure out what is it that you really, really desire and that aligns more with where you want to be and what you want to do.
• 35:53
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and sometimes again, we're not we're not here to think about that and use our energy up in the head.
• 36:00
  SPEAKER_02: Taking a break allows us in a way to channel what our soul wants and desires and that purpose that we have.
• 36:10
  SPEAKER_02: Um, we can be so much more creative.
• 36:13
  SPEAKER_02: Um, like the down part of the emotional wave is a great time to be creative.
• 36:19
  SPEAKER_02: When manifestors take time alone, that's a way for them to be creative or any type that you are.
• 36:26
  SPEAKER_02: Um, another aspect I want to mention is your defined will center.
• 36:32
  SPEAKER_02: And the reason I find this fascinating is most people do not have sustained willpower.
• 36:39
  SPEAKER_02: That's why around this time of year, um, the beginning of the year, people make New Year's resolutions and we find that they broke it.
• 36:48
  SPEAKER_01: I don't do that anymore, by the way.
• 36:50
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 36:50
  SPEAKER_02: Well, you actually have a defined will, so you have probably more access to willpower.
• 36:56
  SPEAKER_02: However, I do want to say, even if you have a defined will, you need time to rest because um it's like depleting, it depletes that energy center and you need to uh rest to restore it.
• 37:10
  SPEAKER_02: It's like your fuel tank.
• 37:12
  SPEAKER_02: It will decrease and then you rest and it increases.
• 37:16
  SPEAKER_02: And you know, this is key for again you taking this break to um allow that root center that's open of yours to just not have uh the pressure for your willpower to recharge, and even for the sacral, which if you're feeling that burnout, even if you've got defined sacral, you're gonna feel that rest can just recharge you.
• 37:40
  SPEAKER_02: And you know, you're the sleep queen, so we we need that sleep, we need time probably during the day downtime as well, but especially at night, that is key for any type.
• 37:54
  SPEAKER_02: That is the time when you are restoring your entire you know, system.
• 37:59
  SPEAKER_02: If you think of yourself as that car, that's when you're getting the oil change and the car wash, and everything is happening behind the scenes.
• 38:07
  SPEAKER_02: So the next morning you're feeling refreshed and ready.
• 38:11
  SPEAKER_02: So sleep is so important.
• 38:12
  SPEAKER_02: And make sure you talk to Kelly.
• 38:14
  SPEAKER_02: She's got so many great tips for sleep.
• 38:17
  SPEAKER_01: Absolutely.
• 38:18
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that completely resonates.
• 38:20
  SPEAKER_01: It's like you can't, and and I also understand, you know, we talked about earlier manifesting generators and generators, having this energy and being able to do things.
• 38:31
  SPEAKER_01: So I used to like capitalize that on that, and I didn't realize that's what I was doing, but like I could kind of get a second wind at like 10 o'clock at night and like clean the whole house or you know, write, or you know, do all kinds of different things and have tons of energy for it, but like didn't realize that that was that was like a second wind that was not truly pulling from energy in a good way.
• 38:59
  SPEAKER_01: So that was eventually going to tank my self-care for sure.
• 39:05
  SPEAKER_02: I had this great vision as you said that.
• 39:07
  SPEAKER_02: I'm gonna add this to my talks now.
• 39:09
  SPEAKER_02: But when generators and manifesting generators get that second wind, it's like we've turned our car into the Flintstone car and we're now running.
• 39:19
  SPEAKER_02: You know, we're we're trying to move the car with our feet.
• 39:22
  SPEAKER_02: And like, who wants to do that?
• 39:24
  SPEAKER_02: That's exhausting.
• 39:25
  SPEAKER_02: And what's gonna happen is you will burn out, you will have those feelings of you know, frustration or even anger of like, what am I doing?
• 39:36
  SPEAKER_02: Or this, it's just gonna build up over time and you'll you'll not have you won't have good results doing that.
• 39:42
  SPEAKER_01: So don't pick the flint stones.
• 39:44
  SPEAKER_01: I totally feel that.
• 39:45
  SPEAKER_01: And and like the resentment that you built up because you're like you stayed up until midnight cleaning the house and nobody helped you, like, what the heck?
• 39:55
  SPEAKER_01: They went to sleep.
• 39:56
  SPEAKER_02: You know, poor people who are like their designs, right?
• 40:00
  SPEAKER_00: Poor people who like are are married to projectors and manifestors are like, you know, what are they doing?
• 40:07
  SPEAKER_00: Why are they sleeping?
• 40:09
  SPEAKER_02: And that that's like such a great, you know, segue to if we honor our own designs, then we start to honor that other people are uniquely built too.
• 40:19
  SPEAKER_02: And they're not probably the same design as you are.
• 40:22
  SPEAKER_02: Um, even if they're the same type, they have you know, charts can look so different and have such variety that uh we need to just honor people for who they are, and especially, you know, this has come up recently about supporting children and for parents to you know get on this bandwagon of human design, learn about yourself so that you can support as a parent.
• 40:49
  SPEAKER_02: I heard today a webinar and she was like, Parents, if you are not parenting from uh, you know, an energy viewpoint or knowing your purpose and like living out a better design, you're not doing the best parenting job.
• 41:05
  SPEAKER_02: Like you could do better, and that sounds harsh, but it's like those kids need support, otherwise they will be, you know, conditioned like we were, and then become personal development junkies too.
• 41:17
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I mean, absolutely, yeah.
• 41:20
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, in in my house, we're all generators because of course I had to run charts on the people that I live with.
• 41:27
  SPEAKER_01: Um, and so like when I figured that out, a lot of things made so much sense.
• 41:34
  SPEAKER_01: But the one thing that I learned that I thought was so important is that as a manifesting generator, I need to inform.
• 41:43
  SPEAKER_01: And for somebody who talks a lot, I mean, obviously podcast hosts, you know, I've written some books and things, so like I'm a communicator, but I'm really, really bad at that.
• 41:54
  SPEAKER_01: And that has bit me in the butt more than once that, you know, not informing what I'm doing, and not to get permission, but to tell people, okay.
• 42:04
  SPEAKER_01: So, like literally, I have to say, okay, I'm gonna be recording a podcast 7:30 on Wednesday night.
• 42:11
  SPEAKER_01: I'm gonna be in there for about an hour or so, and then I'm gonna come out and then I'm gonna be available for the bedtime routine.
• 42:19
  SPEAKER_01: But if I don't inform, then there's gonna be knocking on the door, you know, because they're gonna be like, Where are you?
• 42:26
  SPEAKER_01: What are you doing?
• 42:27
  SPEAKER_01: Because I can get, you know, in my head and in motion, and I'm I am not tuned into the people around me.
• 42:35
  SPEAKER_01: That's definitely one of my my cruxes, the things that uh end up being an issue for me.
• 42:42
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and there's less resentment and less resistance from not just the outside, but even from within you, because you know, okay, I'm letting people know.
• 42:51
  SPEAKER_02: Again, not asking for permission.
• 42:53
  SPEAKER_02: And and informing is such a great thing that I think we all can learn from too.
• 42:58
  SPEAKER_02: Um I just know that like I live with a manifesting generator too.
• 43:03
  SPEAKER_02: And um, while I can notice uh sometimes the forgetfulness to communicate, I know I need to inform him as well because then it just makes for like better, better communication.
• 43:18
  SPEAKER_02: For you, it also sounds like it makes for better parenting.
• 43:21
  SPEAKER_02: Back to that.
• 43:22
  SPEAKER_02: Um I'm not a parent and I full disclosure, but you know, again, informing and teaching, you know, your children to inform, for example, or to um allow them time to speak if they have a defined throat, which you have, um, which sometimes kids are chatty, and that's gonna be a sign of like defined throat and manifesting generator, um, potentially.
• 43:48
  SPEAKER_02: So, yeah, communication is so key in the design as well.
• 43:53
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 43:53
  SPEAKER_01: I I I think that's like a another like huge, like there were things that were beneficial for me, but I think that was beneficial for anybody around me.
• 44:02
  SPEAKER_01: Um, and I I kind of realized how important that was for my relationships because people are kind of like, they're waiting.
• 44:09
  SPEAKER_01: Like, what do you have to let us know?
• 44:12
  SPEAKER_01: Fill us in.
• 44:13
  SPEAKER_01: So I talked a little bit before about satisfaction and frustration.
• 44:18
  SPEAKER_01: Can you explain those a little bit and where they come from on the chart?
• 44:23
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and let me say this um to cover all the types that there's a feeling that we get when we know we're living in, when we are living in our design, and when we're not, there's also a feeling that comes up.
• 44:40
  SPEAKER_02: So for generators, if we're out of alignment, we feel frustration, and if we are, we're feeling satisfaction.
• 44:52
  SPEAKER_02: For manifestors, the feeling that comes up is anger, and if they are in alignment, then they're feeling peace.
• 45:02
  SPEAKER_02: Projectors typically out of alignment feel bitter, and in alignment feel success.
• 45:11
  SPEAKER_02: And so you can notice those words, just um it's not wrong to feel one or the other.
• 45:19
  SPEAKER_02: It's just like a red flag that says, hmm, okay, if if I'm feeling frustration or bitter or anger or something that's just feels out of alignment, then what do I need to shift?
• 45:35
  SPEAKER_02: Do I just need to pause?
• 45:38
  SPEAKER_02: Do I need to you know look at that a little closer?
• 45:40
  SPEAKER_02: Is it for my conditioning?
• 45:42
  SPEAKER_02: Um, is there something there that I can do some inner work around?
• 45:47
  SPEAKER_02: Or um is it just for me to you know accept you know that moment too?
• 45:52
  SPEAKER_02: Because it could be, for example, the low in the emotional wave.
• 45:56
  SPEAKER_02: It could be picking it up from somewhere else.
• 45:58
  SPEAKER_02: So those are just um those feelings are important to acknowledge.
• 46:04
  SPEAKER_02: And um when you start to again tune into, yeah, do I feel frustration or satisfaction and noticing when you do, that can really give you some good signals as to some of the times that you're more in alignment than that.
• 46:19
  SPEAKER_01: Totally.
• 46:20
  SPEAKER_01: That's that has been huge for me.
• 46:22
  SPEAKER_01: And it hasn't even meant like if I'm feeling frustrated by something, then it's like, okay, I'm done with this.
• 46:27
  SPEAKER_01: Although in some cases, that is like an easy answer.
• 46:31
  SPEAKER_01: No, I'm just not, this is not for me.
• 46:33
  SPEAKER_01: I'm gonna just quit and let this go.
• 46:35
  SPEAKER_01: But it's also understanding that I operate best and my energy is at its best when I'm feeling a high level of satisfaction.
• 46:44
  SPEAKER_01: So I never realized, like when I was in college, when I had to study, not like my favorite thing to do, right?
• 46:52
  SPEAKER_01: We used to make up songs to go with things and like routines and things.
• 46:57
  SPEAKER_01: And like that kept me engaged and satisfied, you know, that kept me going.
• 47:01
  SPEAKER_01: Like if you if I'm cleaning in my house, I'm probably listening to a podcast, I'm probably dancing, listening to music, like finding the fun in things because the things that can be like a little bit more mundane, if I add in that element of fun, then there's no problem for me to do it.
• 47:19
  SPEAKER_01: It's kind of like the the Mary Poppins effect, right?
• 47:21
  SPEAKER_02: Making everything, I love that spoonful of sugar, you know, super califragilistic at spiala doches.
• 47:28
  SPEAKER_02: All of that.
• 47:29
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 47:31
  SPEAKER_02: And something I want to mention that this ties to is no matter what your design, that doing self-care is so key.
• 47:41
  SPEAKER_02: And what you explained, dancing, music, that's really a form of self-care.
• 47:47
  SPEAKER_02: Self-care comes in so many different forms and it's different for each person.
• 47:53
  SPEAKER_02: But what it is, is that it's nurturing, it helps you feel that um again, that that feeling of satisfaction or success.
• 48:03
  SPEAKER_02: Um, it and it can come in small increments.
• 48:06
  SPEAKER_02: You can sprinkle it through the day like Mary Poppins, or um you know, just being in tune with what are you doing already for your self-care.
• 48:15
  SPEAKER_02: And it and to not look at what's missing, but to actually say, you know what, I woke up today and I took a shower, or I remembered to brush my teeth.
• 48:24
  SPEAKER_02: That's all self-care too.
• 48:26
  SPEAKER_02: Then look at you know, how are you treating your body?
• 48:30
  SPEAKER_02: How are you helping your mind to be maybe creative or to take uh some time from downtime from over over getting overstimulated?
• 48:42
  SPEAKER_02: And then what are you doing for your spirit?
• 48:44
  SPEAKER_02: That mind, body, spirit connection.
• 48:46
  SPEAKER_02: What are you doing for the spirit in terms of like your inner work and um connecting to maybe a higher power?
• 48:53
  SPEAKER_02: Um, so all of that can be self-care.
• 48:55
  SPEAKER_02: I call that you know the self-care umbrella.
• 48:57
  SPEAKER_02: It's pretty big, um, but it's a great way to align not only your energy, but to help you thrive in your design, even if you're not yet familiar with human design or your type.
• 49:14
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, agreed.
• 49:15
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I think all of those pieces are such great elements to add in, right?
• 49:21
  SPEAKER_01: Not what's missing, but what can you add?
• 49:23
  SPEAKER_01: How can you enhance what you already have?
• 49:26
  SPEAKER_01: I think that is so, so important.
• 49:29
  SPEAKER_01: So, Christy, this book that you were the lead author on, um all about human design.
• 49:40
  SPEAKER_01: This is so this is what my recommendation would be.
• 49:43
  SPEAKER_01: And Christy, you amend it if you think anything should be different.
• 49:46
  SPEAKER_01: So when we finish this podcast, or if you're listening to the pre-recorded version, when you finish listening, you're gonna want to go and you're gonna want to figure out your design by putting in the information from your birth.
• 50:01
  SPEAKER_01: Then you're going to want to purchase this book either as an ebook or a hard copy, if that's how you like to read your books, and learn from some of your authors.
• 50:13
  SPEAKER_01: I had so much fun reading each of the authors, particularly the authors that talked about being a manifesting generator and what that looked like.
• 50:23
  SPEAKER_01: And then you want to make sure you join Christy's groups on Facebook, follow her, um, catch one of her classes, and also I would highly, highly recommend booking a session with her to go through your chart in particular.
• 50:41
  SPEAKER_01: I feel like it was such an incredible investment in understanding um how my design operates and really delved into some things.
• 50:52
  SPEAKER_01: And I feel like we did that, you know, a couple months ago.
• 50:56
  SPEAKER_01: I'm still going back to the notes that I took and looking and kind of picking the things to experiment and work with because it can be a lot, you know, to dive into all of those things.
• 51:09
  SPEAKER_01: But there's just these delicious little nuggets in there that I keep picking up and being like, oh, I'm gonna incorporate that now.
• 51:15
  SPEAKER_01: And uh that's been so wonderful.
• 51:17
  SPEAKER_01: So, how does that sound like a plan?
• 51:19
  SPEAKER_01: What do you think?
• 51:20
  SPEAKER_01: Those steps.
• 51:21
  SPEAKER_02: I'm gonna hire you as a marketing person for sure.
• 51:24
  SPEAKER_02: Well, there you could you can you have free use.
• 51:28
  SPEAKER_02: You explained that so great.
• 51:30
  SPEAKER_02: Yes, definitely start by uh learning about uh your type, going to uh get your chart online, um, and there's various places.
• 51:41
  SPEAKER_02: Um, and then my book is actually a story form um type of book.
• 51:48
  SPEAKER_02: There are 25 human design practitioners like myself, each telling their story in a chapter about how they discovered human design and how it transformed them and all the good stuff, as well as some tips and tools and techniques for helping the readers with their energy.
• 52:07
  SPEAKER_02: So uh if you don't want to get too technical, that's a great book.
• 52:11
  SPEAKER_02: Um, then there's a lot of other information you can find online or come to me for a reading for sure, and we'll walk through your chart.
• 52:22
  SPEAKER_02: Um, I also offer monthly intro to human design webinars, and I'm starting some small group workshops where we walk through the type strategy and authority to help build that foundation.
• 52:40
  SPEAKER_02: Um and just just uh open the door and and walk through and and get a taste of human design.
• 52:49
  SPEAKER_02: Um, for some people it really resonates.
• 52:51
  SPEAKER_02: For others, maybe they um they learn about it and then they'll come back to it when they're ready.
• 52:58
  SPEAKER_02: Um, and they certainly can, you know, contact me for um more information.
• 53:03
  SPEAKER_02: Thank you.
• 53:04
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, definitely.
• 53:05
  SPEAKER_01: I I highly recommend doing that.
• 53:07
  SPEAKER_01: I think it it's so valuable for your relationships.
• 53:11
  SPEAKER_01: For of course, we've talked about self-care and avoiding, you know, those burnout situations, but it's also great for understanding how you operate, you know, from a business sense, whether you're an entrepreneur or you're on a team, you know, like I I have like these visions of like how amazing would it be in some of these companies where you find people are just like not working well together, figuring out your human design and like figuring out who's good at what and figuring out all those little inner workings that would make things run so much more smoothly.
• 53:44
  SPEAKER_01: I think about that.
• 53:46
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, definitely.
• 53:47
  SPEAKER_02: And you can definitely do that for business and for family.
• 53:51
  SPEAKER_02: You want to know who's in the car with you, and so everyone can have their their role and honor each other.
• 53:57
  SPEAKER_02: Um, yeah, it's it there's so many different ways to use this tool.
• 54:03
  SPEAKER_02: It's amazing.
• 54:04
  SPEAKER_02: And again, parenting and uh one of my authors actually does human design for parents and to help them understand how to, you know, raise their kids in a way that's like less stressful.
• 54:16
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I love that.
• 54:17
  SPEAKER_01: Yes, and I've definitely picked up some tips along the way for my my little generator.
• 54:23
  SPEAKER_01: Um, I'm also thinking, this has just been coming up a lot with a lot of my guests, having this sort of subset of being able to address for parents like what they could do with their kids.
• 54:33
  SPEAKER_01: So I'm almost thinking in a few months I'm gonna do just a bunch of shows that are more geared at parents for their children tools and things like that.
• 54:41
  SPEAKER_01: So I would love to have you come back and and talk from that perspective, you know, of how to use human design um with your children.
• 54:51
  SPEAKER_01: So that would be incredible.
• 54:53
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I'd love to.
• 54:55
  SPEAKER_01: Yes, for sure.
• 54:57
  SPEAKER_01: So we're gonna wrap up the show tonight.
• 55:00
  SPEAKER_01: I hope you all took away some great tips and tricks from Christy.
• 55:04
  SPEAKER_01: We are going to put everything in the show notes um for you to be able to find your chart, how to connect with Christy, find her on Facebook and Instagram, and definitely to get a copy of her book for yourself because it's just it's perfect self-development.
• 55:22
  SPEAKER_01: It's wonderful.
• 55:23
  SPEAKER_01: And uh I agree, I love the story form because you can really feel people's stories, and then they're offering you their own unique tools.
• 55:31
  SPEAKER_01: So that is a great one to have in your arsenal of self-development.
• 55:35
  SPEAKER_01: I have quite an arsenal up above me.
• 55:37
  SPEAKER_01: You can't see it right now, but it is in rainbow order because organizing things in rainbow order is very satisfying for me.
