You’ve been everything for everyone. And now you’re wondering who you are when no one’s watching.
Human Design can be a helpful roadmap—back to you.
Learning that I'm a Projector (my Human Design energy type) gave my inner voice a microphone and the confidence to:
Better honor my energy.
Redefine what productivity means and work in bursts.
Proactively schedule rest or quiet time.
Be very discerning about which social events I attend.
It was like a permission slip to be myself.

What is Human Design?
From my favorite voices on Human Design:
“Human Design offers a practical yet profound guide for this journey, helping you understand the parts of yourself that have been hidden beneath years of ‘shoulds’ and self-sacrifice.” —Lori Lisai, Human Design Expert and Midlife Guide, lorilisai.com
“Human Design is the science of differentiation. It tells you how your energetic body is designed to specifically operate in the world around you and how to best optimize your life.” —Shayna Cornelius and Dana Stiles of Dayluna
“Human Design is part science, part spiritual system that tells you who you came here to be. You have your own blueprint, your own way of becoming successful, your own way your dreams are going to come true.” —Jenna Zoe of Human Design with Jenna Zoe
Get your Human Design chart
The first step in exploring Human Design is to get your chart. Similar to getting an Astrology chart, you will need to answer these questions:
I'm sending you to my friend Lori's site—more on her below.
Start exploring
Once you have your chart, get to know your Energy Type and Strategy. Your Energy Type is the operations manual for your energy. Your Strategy is your natural way of making choices and taking action.
Understanding how your energy naturally exists in the world, instead of how you have been taught to behave by our culture, can be validating, grounding, and a huge relief.

I recently started an Instagram Live series called Curious Together, where I sit down and have short, honest conversations with trusted experts (my online friends 🩷). Last week, I sat down with Lori Lisai, a Human Design expert and Midlife Guide, to talk about how Human Design can be a roadmap back to yourself during midlife.
In this video, Lori shared a tip for each energy type on how to journey back to YOU.
Thank you for journeying with me. Part of my purpose in life, and in this business, is to share tools that are helpful. If you're seeking support or grounding, I hope Human Design offers something meaningful. 🩷
I'd love to hear about the insights Human Design has given you. Just hit reply.
