In this episode, we're taking a step back from our minds to really begin observing how they work.  In Human Design, the mind tends to be thought of only as something that can take you off your path. And while it has the potential to do that, only viewing the mind as such doesn't account for its beauty and purpose in HD.  We'll look at what's really supposed to be directing the vehicle (a.k.a. your body) and how your mind can take the wheel. We'll also talk about how you can begin to step away from your thoughts and become an observer of them.  This is all part of the deconditioning journey, so listen in to gain a new perspective on the mind and how you can relate to it.   Learn more about your unique Human Design by booking a reading here.

129. How and Why to Observe the Mind

 Join me and my Splenic Projector guest, Brand Manager Allie Tymo as we talk all things Projector, business, and life. We have a great conversation, starting with what being an open G-Center Projector is like. Allie shares her experience as well as her tips for creating a brand as someone who has an open G-Center.   We segue into other areas of interest, including deconditioning as a Projector and regulating our nervous systems. Allie has some great suggestions for how Projectors (or anyone, really) can begin to tap into their body and nervous system to move out of fight or flight so they can really begin to understand what's going on.   This was such a fun and interesting conversation, so join us by listening to the episode!   Connect with Allie on Instagram.   Want to change the way you approach + attract invitations?

128. Shifting From Survival to Thriving With Allie Tymo

I'm joined by 1/3 Splenic Projector Clarise Bezuidenhout as we talk about all things recognition in this episode.  Our focus is more on internal recognition, as Clarise points out its importance in our deconditioning process. Internal recognition - our ability to see our gifts and really appreciate them (and our energy) is what really sets the stage for Projector success and the ability for us to attract aligned invitations and opportunities.  Clarise shares her journey and understanding of the part that internal recognition plays in Projector life throughout the episode. She also offers some tips for how to begin recognizing yourself during the deconditioning process.    Connect With Clarise on Instagram.   Join the That Projector Life Facebook Group here.

127. Exploring the Importance of Internal Recognition With Clarise Bezuidenhout

The show is finally back! After an unexpected 2-week break, I'm bringing you a new episode (ironically as a result of that break).  This episode is all about alignment and what I've learned since starting my Projector journey. And all of these lessons have been highlighted by what I've experienced over the past two weeks.  Here's the thing - a lot of time, we think about alignment as a one-time thing. We say "I'll make this one aligned decision or take this one aligned action, and I'll be good to go."  But the truth of the matter is that alignment doesn't always work like that. Sometimes, alignment actually takes work and challenges us to grow. Sometimes, no matter how hard we try/meditate/clear our energy, etc, we can't figure out what's aligned for us.  So what happens then? Are we doing something wrong? (Spoiler alert: No.) We'll talk about all of this (and more) in this episode. Ready to hear about alignment - and how our mind, body, and energy sometimes don't play nicely together? Listen in to the episode.    For all the links mentioned in this episode, check out the complete show notes: https://www.thatprojectorguide.com/tpl126/

126. 3 Things I've Learned About Alignment

Welcome to our first astrology-focused episode on That Projector Life! I'm working on finding my flow and figuring out how to work astrology into the mix. And that all begins with this episode. This kicks off our foundation building time in astrology. We'll cover the astrological basics in the next few episodes. So if you're familiar with astrology, this will likely be a review (but reviews tend to lead to new realizations, I've found). And if you're new to astrology, we're starting with an explanation of each of the planets and what they rule (and how they impact us). So strap in as we walk through each of the planets in our natal charts and lay that foundation of understanding. For my astrological knowledge, I'm using a mix of resources, which I've listed below: Cafe Astrology Astrodienst (great for natal charts) Time Nomad (great phone app for astrology) (Book) - Astrology for the Light Side of the Brain by Kim Rogers-Gallagher (Book) - Stephen Arroyo's Chart Interpretation Handbook   For all the links mentioned in this episode, check out the complete show notes: https://www.thatprojectorguide.com/tpl125/ Learn more about your unique Human Design by booking a reading here.

125. Understanding Planets in Astrology

This episode really revolves around the old nature vs nurture debate, but we're looking at it from an astrological and energetic standpoint. We're bringing together astrology and Human Design to talk about how our mindsets impact our chart interpretation.  We'll talk about my idea of inherent chart neutrality - the idea that an astrological or Human Design chart is neither good nor bad. We'll also talk about how we react to difficult or challenging energies and how that can impact our charts.  This is all about bringing more awareness to our mindset when we sit down with our charts - because our mindset is going to impact how we view the information and the energy in our chart. We can choose to use our charts as tools to help us grow, or as an excuse (or a cushion). And our mindset is one of our biggest factors when looking at charts.   Learn more about your unique Human Design by booking a reading here. Join the That Projector Life Facebook Group here.

124. How Your Mindset Impacts Your Chart Interpretation

In this episode, we're talking all things launching as a Projector. More specifically, I'll walk you through the process that I like to use for launches and that I recommend as a framework for Projectors. The ultimate goal of this launch process is to give you more time to plan things out, create content, and rest (yes REST) during your launch.  It's here to make launching less stressful, because launching doesn't have to be (and really shouldn't be) a super stressful thing that consumes all your energy. It's entirely possible to enjoy your launch as a Projector. I'll break this launch process into four phases and walk you through each phase and what happens in it.  Hopefully this episode will inspire you to reflect on your own launch strategy and where it needs some tweaks to be more in alignment with your Projector energy.    Learn more about your unique Human Design by booking a reading here.

123. How to Launch as a Projector

We're finally exploring self-projected authority! To all my SPPs (self-projected Projectors) out there, I apologize that this episode has taken so long. We'll dive into the mechanics of self-projected authority and talk about where it originates, how you get self-projected authority, and how to work with it. (Yes, talking it out is really helpful, but that's not all there is to it. We'll get into the nuances in this episode). I'll be drawing on my own personal experience as an SPP and share my journey working with this authority. Interestingly, this authority sounds like one of the simpler ones out there, and once you really understand it, it's fun to work with. But it's the getting there that takes time and practice. Hopefully this episode will support you on your journey towards understanding and working with your self-projected authority.   Ready to learn the basics of your energy, how to wait, + how to avoid bitterness?

122. Understanding Self-Projected Authority

In this episode, we're taking a look at the three gates of aloneness in Human Design. As their grouping suggests, these gates deal with being alone - and potentially even feeling lonely sometimes. However, when we dive into each specific gate, we'll see that their need for alone time is driven by different things. It's also important to note that none of these gates of aloneness require constant alone time. Each of these gates needs to interact with others occasionally to share what's come up for it, or to simply share the fruits of its labor. Ready to learn more about the gates of aloneness?

121. Exploring the Gates of Aloneness

It's been a while since I've created a podcast episode and hung out with y'all. In the month that I've been gone, I've done a few different things, but mostly I rested.  And while I rested, I reflected on my business, my life, and my energy. I also spent some time diving into a new subject that I believe may make its way into my business in the future.  In this episode, I'll talk candidly about what caused my hiatus (it was a two-fold thing) and what I've discovered about the Human Design system, my place in it, and my approach to it since I've been gone.  I'll also open up about what's next for my business and how I'm changing it to bring more alignment and joy back into it.   Want to change the way you approach + attract invitations?

120. Where I've Been + What's Next

Shelby Melissa is back on the podcast, and this time, we're talking about work, worth, and money. This is a topic that everyone struggles with, but Projectors especially tend to struggle a bit more because of our energy and our strategy.  So how do you begin to untangle your worth from your work and from money? Shelby offers us a great method for taking stock of our beliefs and thoughts and then organizing them into their proper boxes.  It's also important to understand that this isn't an overnight thing. This untangling is a lifelong journey - one that we're all on together.  Want to connect with Shelby? Check out her links below.

119. Untangling Work, Worth, and Money With Shelby Melissa

Join my Projector guest + spiritual mentor and consciousness expansion coach Eva Liao in this episode of That Projector Life. Eva and I talk about the self-development hamster wheel (plus the business + life hamster wheel, cuz that's a thing) and how to navigate it as a Projector. Eva has some amazing insights into being a Projector and her journey so far - we talk about how she started as a Projector and where she is now.  We also talk about Projectors' roles in the evolution of humanity and how our energy works differently. There's also some discussion about working with the intangible and honoring that in your marketing.  Ready to dive into Eva's wisdom? Listen to the episode! Want to connect with Eva?

118. How to Exit The Hamster Wheel With Eva Liao

Have you noticed that people seem to say, "You never listen!" to you on a regular basis? Or have you noticed that people will speak to you and you completely miss what they're saying and have to ask them to repeat themselves? It's possible that you have a gate of deafness (or the entire channel) defined in your chart. In this episode, we're talking about the three Gates of Deafness in Human Design. We'll cover what these 3 gates (and their channels) have in common and how they impact your design. Listen in to learn more about these unique gates, why they work the way they do, and how you can work with them.    For all the links mentioned in this episode, check out the complete show notes: https://www.thatprojectorguide.com/tpl117/ Want to change the way you approach + attract invitations?

117. The Gates of Deafness

This episode takes a deep dive into the Willpower Center. We'll talk through the gates and channels in this center (all four of them), and while we do, we'll touch on the Tribal role and energy that each gate has.  It's important to note that the Willpower is all about the Tribe. It works to ensure the Tribe has what it needs to survive, thrive, and flourish. Without the Willpower's drive and ego to survive, the Tribe (and our society as a whole) wouldn't exist.  From The Gate of Shock to the Gate of Aloneness, the Willpower makes its presence known in the Tribe through its dedication, ego, and will to provide for those it loves. Let's take a look at this power motor to find out what makes it tick.   Ready to learn the basics of your energy, how to wait, + how to avoid bitterness?

116. Exploring Tribal Connections in the Willpower

In this episode, we explore the center for love, identity, and direction in Human Design - the G Center (also known as the Identity Center). We'll dive into each of the 8 gates and channels connected to this center and talk about how they influence us, our design, and humanity as a whole. If you want more general background info on the Identity Center, check out episode 58 - it covers the basics of the center and what it means if you have it defined vs undefined. This episode will focus on the more detailed aspect of this center, so if you're unsure about things, listen to episode 58.   I would love to support you as you discover your unique Human Design by booking a reading here.
