Welcome to The Woo Woo In You Podcast- the 4th episode!
Join Megan and I as we dive into life as a Projector in Human Design. We explore what "waiting for the invitation" means to us, why rest is important and how recognizing that in our energy helps us to set boundaries in our lives, and how learning about our channels has supported our on-going self discovery journey.
We are not Human Design experts-just two Projectors learning to honor our energy and live more in alignment. You'll hear real talk, real stories and some journal prompts towards the end (or see below) to help you reflect on what success looks like for you as a Projector.
Whether you're a fellow Projector or just curious about this type in Human Design and how it applies in real life, this episode is a relaxed and fun conversation looking at the beauty of embracing our Projector design.
Questions for what success looks like to you (taken from the book "A Modern Guide To Human Design" by Rachel Lieberman):
When do I feel the most seen and valued for my unique contributions?
What lifestyle feels most luxurious to me?
Where do I most enjoy lending my perspective and expertise to others?

0:02 can I get a woo woo welcome to the Woo Woo and You podcast i am your host B 0:08 Marie and here we are going to discuss all things manifestation human design spirituality 0:16 universal laws and of course more so sit 0:21 back relax and let's dive in [Music] 0:27 thank you for tuning in in this episode Megan and I dive into what it means to be a projector in human design we 0:35 explore what waiting for the invitation looks like in our lives the importance of rest and how understanding our unique 0:41 channels has helped us recognize our gifts just know we are not experts we're 0:46 just two projectors learning to work with this tool in a way that supports our energy and enhances our lives and 0:52 human design is meant to be just that a tool a guide so take what resonates and leave the rest a few side notes you may 1:00 hear or see my dog because that's just my life at one point I refer to the ego 1:07 center which is also called the heart center in human design both terms are used interchangeably so just know I'm 1:14 talking about the same center towards the end of the episode I'll share some journal prompts that help you reflect on 1:19 what success might look like for you as a projector and whether you're a fellow projector you're just curious about this 1:26 type or you're beginning your human design journey this is a relaxed and fun 1:32 conversation if you're not sure of what your type is yet there are plenty of free websites where you can find that 1:37 out all you need is your birth date your birth time and your location i hope you 1:43 enjoy our discussion welcome to the Woo Woo and You podcast today I have Megan 1:49 Pingle back to talk about one of my favorite subjects which is human design 1:55 hello hi i'm so excited to be here this one's a great subject yes me too because um 2:04 human design we both learned that we are projectors that's right yes we are so today that is 2:12 what we're talking about um we're not going to get too detailed because neither of us are experts at human 2:19 design at all like we're not we are just somebody who you know found out what our 2:25 human design basically is and basically tried to start living as projectors so 2:34 um I just want to ask you where did you first learn about human design because apparently this is like human design has 2:41 been a concept since I believe the 80s oh really okay yeah I had no 2:48 clue okay so um like you I had never heard of 2:54 human design um and I had taken a course um Katherine Zenina has a manifestation 3:02 course which you and I took together and that uh during that amazing program um 3:08 one of the weeks and lessons was about human design um and I it took me a a 3:16 minute to kind of wrap my head around it because I didn't quite understand it and I'm logical so I wanted to understand 3:22 like how it worked but that was where I kind of first was introduced to human design and then um we took a course she 3:29 had kind of a crash course um on it and then after that uh I kind of explored 3:34 other areas that gave more information around human design so that was kind of my first like toe dipping into human 3:43 design in general what about you yeah same here so I also took the course the 3:48 manifestation course and that's where I first learned about it and I was so fascinated i was like "Oh my gosh this 3:53 is so cool." Like you know me I I love to explore different avenues so of 4:00 course I went in and tried to learn more about it as well and um just kind of 4:06 Googled some things and I wanted to know what my design was so I looked up my design and if it turned out I was a 4:15 projector right okay and I will actually show you 4:21 so this is actually what you get when you like look up your human design so 4:26 for the listeners that are not looking at it's called a body graph and you're going to see like this person and it has 4:33 all these energy centers and lines and I just looked at this and I said what what 4:40 is this i don't understand it and the fact that I had everything empty as you 4:46 can see except for two energy centers I 4:52 cried i was like "Oh my god this is what's wrong with me." I was like "No wonder this is my 4:59 issue i have nothing to find." And I cried i was so heartbroken and I cried 5:06 and I was just like "Yep that's that's the issue." Um so yeah that's how I found out human 5:13 design and I was reading about the other types because there's five types if I'm 5:19 not mistaken you have projector manifesttor generator manny genen and 5:26 reflector so those are the five so I was reading about like I think generator and 5:32 manifesttor and I was like why can't I be one of them they have everything and they just like Yeah I was I was very 5:39 heartbroken to say the least were you heartbroken at all or you were 5:46 just like "Oh okay that's cool." You know mine yeah it's funny so when I 5:52 first tried to find my human design which by the way um for all of you listeners who don't understand how to 5:58 get a um a reading or to to to put your information in how you do it is you plug 6:05 in your birthday the time you were born and where you were born and at the time 6:12 I didn't really know that information which um in the course um Katherine kind 6:17 of talks about if that's something that's not available to you that you can use other tools to kind of help you u 6:23 narrow down the time um so I at first thought that I was a manifesttor because 6:30 I didn't know any of my information so I plug in what I thought I was and I 6:37 thought you know the time I was born and where I was born and it projects out that I was a manifesttor and I resonated 6:44 so hard with it i was like "Yes that's me yes yes." And then I get on the phone 6:50 with my mom and she's like "No you were born at 7:35 PM not 6:58 am." So that completely changed my chart like it was like complete opposite of 7:05 what I had already researched so um it took me a minute to actually resonate with the information I got and I will 7:12 say this um when I first looked at my human design at the place I was in life 7:18 I read it and it was interesting but it didn't really it nothing was super like 7:25 nothing really stood out to me as information that I could use at that time um after I would say a year and a 7:32 half the where I'm at now I reread my design and I resonate so much with 7:39 what's being presented now as the information so my advice to people who 7:44 put in for their design um go with what resonates with you and they say take what you want leave the rest um if you 7:51 don't always resonate with what's being presented to you that's you you know that's your intuition telling you yes 7:56 and no um and over time I think as as life progresses for you sometimes it 8:02 does line up so don't always knock everything in human design if you don't immediately like you know resonate with 8:09 it that's that's what I have to say on that right um so what parts for you 8:14 resonated with being with being a projector versus thinking you were a 8:20 manifesttor yes so you know what's funny is so a 8:26 projector um well part of my design too was um a projector is someone who um 8:34 waits for an invitation and um this is for your gifts you wait for an 8:40 invitation to give your gifts to the world and I at first did not agree with 8:47 that like when I want something I go for it i take I you know I I take charge i 8:53 get what I want and I decide when I want and when I you know when I want to 8:58 portray my gifts and when I don't and I don't want to sit around wait for something and so at first that didn't 9:05 resonate but as I started looking at my life I realized that I got invitations 9:11 all the time and that's when I was so successful 9:16 in life in general right um right and actually what made me come alive was 9:21 when I did get an invitation to something and I would go for it and blast my my g unique gift at this thing 9:30 or person and that's when I felt the most alive so to me that fully resonated 9:37 um knowing that I received gifts and just paying attention to those um and I 9:43 think another thing in my chart was that um I was told I was an impath and I 9:48 always wondered if I was um but I'd never really resonated with some of the 9:53 descriptions of what an impath was but after going through my chart and kind of seeing how it lined up that also 10:00 resonated with me too so there was quite a few things in there that that I felt were spoton 10:07 yeah and for like the waiting for the invitation when I first read that I didn't understand that i was like "What 10:13 do you mean?" Cuz I was like "You if I want something I go and do it and I go and get it right?" Like I was like "What 10:18 do you mean wait for the invitation?" And then later as I kept researching I 10:24 understood that um so for me I'm the type of person who 10:30 loves to give advice whether you want to hear it or not right so in projector 10:35 world that is like a no no that's where that's where you wait for the invitation 10:40 because since I love to like cuz as a projector you're like a guide right you can um help people see where they could 10:48 improve so of course I'm always like "Hey if maybe if you do this or that or whatever right?" And people would just 10:55 like reject me all the time and I'd be like "What what the hell?" Like I'm trying to help you so for me that part 11:02 when I finally understood wait for the invitation to like give advice to people 11:08 instead of just going hey you I know how I can help you improve here here's some 11:13 advice and then they reject me and I'm just like so sour and like what the hell right 11:20 yes absolutely okay I 100% agree with that because um as a projector you you 11:27 see things that can be fixable And you all the time all the time and yes I 11:35 would realize like I would give all of this energy i would pour my energy into something and it was not received well 11:43 and I remember thinking if you would just listen to me everything would be better for me all the time that that 11:48 would be like the projector's thing if you would just listen yes that's like our motto if you would just listen to me 11:55 your life would be a thousand times better but it brought frustration and 12:00 bitterness um because I would expel so much energy towards something that was never received um and I realized as a 12:08 projector as well we have a limited amount of energy that we push out and um 12:14 giving it away to someone that's not receiving it is wasting it and then you're out of your energy until you rest 12:21 and recuperate your energy so that was a huge lesson for me realizing that my 12:27 energy was sacred and knowing when to give it to someone based on an 12:32 invitation rather than projecting it on someone that doesn't really want it yeah 12:38 which I would say I used to do a lot like and I still I still sometimes will 12:43 catch myself doing it i'm like "Okay I need to shut up i need to shut up and not do this and just wait for them to be 12:50 like open to receiving what I have to say absolutely um and I also want to talk you mentioned 12:57 resting oh my gosh so resting for me is a big thing out of all of my friends I 13:05 was the one who wanted to sleep the most i love sleep i love sleep i could and I 13:11 could take naps during the day no problem but I used to feel so guilty and be like "Why do I always want to take a 13:18 nap like why do I always just want to like chill out and go to sleep and I 13:24 would feel so bad and so guilty?" But then learning that projector like how their energy um I guess their energy is 13:32 sucked up the more people you're around and the more things that you're doing that we're we're not here to do we're 13:38 here to guide and I was the doer i've always been just doing doing so um the 13:45 rest when I finally was like I resonated so hard with that i was like yes I can 13:51 take naps with guilt-free like yes I can rest and recharge guiltree 13:58 absolutely thank you i will take it yes actually you know what's funny is like 14:04 as a a younger version of myself I always took naps and would feel guilty 14:10 that I needed the naps um and then as I got older I don't have time for naps and 14:16 and as a mother you definitely don't have time for naps so uh knowing that 14:22 that was part of my design was so helpful because now I realize that my I 14:27 get more energy by giving in to the design than just not resisting it at all 14:33 yes yes going until you're burnt out and then you need like five days of rest 14:39 versus like just maybe half a day yes and I and I know we'll probably go into 14:45 this but one of my channels in my design is creative outlet and um I'm uh part of 14:51 my design is that I can create something beautiful and I've not and I will notice when I am in art mode or creative mode I 14:59 can blast the energy out creating something but I can literally run myself 15:05 into the ground as I'm like creating and I can tell when my body and energy is 15:11 done and I need that rest to recoup so that I can do it again um later but if I 15:17 continue to go and ignore the signs then everything starts falling out of place 15:23 so that's another thing that's helped me in my creative outlets to take that rest 15:28 because it's so important it will help me in the long run be more creative and and and create things that are more 15:35 beautiful because I'm living by my design right absolutely um so do you 15:42 have your chart with you because I'm just interested to see like what do we have in common 15:49 right so okay um both of us are uh projectors which we found out 15:55 after um we had no idea that we were projectors together so um I when we took 16:02 our course um you could go online anyone could go online on myhumdesesign.com or Google humanes and 16:09 there's a lot of free websites that have the ability to plug in your information and you'll get a little bit of information um to get the full monty a 16:16 lot of them are paid for um modalities but this one um if you can see 16:23 it is my human design and as you can see um I have three energy centers that are 16:30 lit up and the rest are blank so unlike yours um you have less lit up than mine 16:39 um but as you go through your design they will tell you which ones are 16:45 highlighted which ones are lit up and what they mean um which was so helpful to me 16:51 yeah mine um that are lit up is actually the ego is one of them and I believe the 17:00 spleen i think that other one over there is the spleen okay thanks 17:07 let's see cuz I just wanted to read 17:13 um where it is yeah so ego defined ego 17:21 um is basically saying you were designed to be a natural achiever and tuned into 17:26 your desires and I've always been like a goal oriented person I would say um and 17:34 just go after whatever I wanted um so I really resonated with with that for 17:40 sure and then the other one so everything is open Open open 17:47 open sacral define spleen so you are defi you are designed 17:53 to have a strong reliable intuition which the more that I am diving into my 17:59 intuition the more I am realizing that yes I am resonating with this 18:05 um so it says like in your wisdom you are intuitive and in your shadow you are 18:12 cerebral and disconnected so a lot of times I have 18:19 um IGN ignored my intuition um Yes how about you you ever 18:27 ignored your intuition and wish you didn't yes um actually knowing my human design has 18:33 helped me open myself up more to my intuition um because that's one of my gifts so um I will say when you plug in 18:42 your human design um you will get specific information about yourself 18:47 that's kind of an overall version of your design and then if you pay for you 18:53 know a more in-depth um overview they deep dive into more of the the channels 18:59 and some of the things that are are in your graph um but one of them is 19:05 intuition a projector for the most part so there's a lot of generic things that projectors have in common um but as 19:12 you're as you deep dive into your design you'll realize that there's a lot of unique things about you that are that 19:19 are specific to you kind of like a fingerprint right yes um so for me intuition was also on my chart and um I 19:27 think the majority of projectors have a lot of or have a very strong intuition 19:32 um making decisions based on their intuition is their like the highest gift they have so that was kind of neat to 19:39 learn that I had that so it made me pay attention to it more for sure oh yeah 19:46 yep i'm I'm I'm starting to learn to I guess trust in my intuition more instead 19:54 of ignoring it and I'm also trying to be more aware of how how oh gosh how that 20:00 happens hello Mojo hi um so so I will 20:06 say um when I got my design for the first time um the free version kind of 20:11 gives you some information like um you get the type that you are which for us 20:16 is a projector you can deep dive and learn more about what that means in general um and then you get more 20:24 information about like um when you are in alignment with your true purpose this 20:29 is um how you will feel if you're not in alignment this is how you'll feel um how 20:36 you make decisions um the type of environment that you're around and the friends that you have um if they feel in 20:44 alignment or not or um how you strategize you know your day-to-day life 20:50 which for us is getting invitations um and then just how you make your 20:55 decisions in life too is also kind of part of your design so for me this was 21:01 huge i didn't realize it had that much information um to read about myself and I I think 21:08 the first part of getting your design is realizing what you have been doing and what you haven't been doing and like you 21:14 were talking about intuition it made me realize that I wasn't using it but it's one of my gifts so I need to try to use 21:21 it so it's just awareness I think was a huge part for me in human design and I 21:26 think most people are um taught or raised to be more like um 21:35 is it the manifestors or the generators that go go like they have like this abundance of energy and they just go all 21:41 the time yes and I think most of society is kind of like that they're where 21:47 they're not honoring you know rest it's like you know work work work work work 21:53 go to sleep and then work work work work work work work work work work work work some more and like for me I've never loved a full-time job never i've always 22:00 wanted I've always wanted to like work part-time and then like sleep 40 like I 22:06 wanted it reversed sleep 40 hours and then have off you know or go to work 22:13 which makes sense because it's part of your design right um yeah especially 22:19 when you're doing something you don't fully enjoy doing like I have to do this like I have to be there at this time 22:25 right so um I think most of society unfortunately is um just go go and burning themselves 22:34 out and whether they're protectors or not i mean everybody needs rest 22:40 yes and you know I was one of those people that was enthusiastic about go 22:45 going i thought I had endless energy and I would wonder like why I would have burnout i would wonder why I was having 22:51 crashdowns you know i just I would go and I would give myself so much during 22:57 the day and I would come home and crash and wonder why I was so exhausted and it 23:03 would take me days to recoup so it's nice to know how you're designed 23:10 um and you know and you compare yourself to other people which I you brought up um I think it's gener or I think it's a 23:18 generator who has endless energy and when I compare myself to some of my 23:23 friends who can go go and and never stop and don't need that much rest that I do 23:29 it's it's like well there's something wrong with me so why do I need more rest than my friend so 23:37 and I would do that with my mom because my mom is the type of person who cannot take a nap during the day and she's 23:43 always got to be doing something um she's very fidgety and I I looked up her chart um and I wasn't quite sure on the 23:51 time so I guesstimated um but what I came up with was she was I believe it 23:56 was a Manny Jen and I was like "Oh well that explains your goness." 24:04 Yes you know and that's another fun thing to do when you're researching human design 24:10 is looking up your family and friends oh yes um because I did that with my husband too and and he was he's a 24:16 manifesting generator and it makes so much sense now so it's fun to do that 24:22 too so I get that uhhuh um do you know what so there's profiles in human design 24:29 like the one one three two four like all of those numbers do you know what you 24:35 are with that um so the one I've done um 24:40 I did myhumanesign.com which was a free version um and then it did give me some 24:47 information uh maybe not quite that in depth um and then I signed up for um 24:53 another um person who was an expert on human design Aaron Claire Jones and she gave 25:01 um a full 62pageformational document that the deep 25:08 dive into by human design um but hers was more on just the basics the centers 25:15 and the channels um and she kind of explained things that way i actually got 25:20 the same one and I think she does put it in there it's just that she didn't label it because when I was reading it um I 25:28 know I'm a 13 so a three profile is um the one is like the uh investigator 25:37 like you like to research um so and then the three is basically 25:44 you're living by trial and error which I have always done too so I definitely 25:50 resonated with that so okay so I'm looking at mine she did 25:56 she put it in there um profile two you're four okay so I have my book here 26:03 so the two is classified as the hermit um 26:08 solitude innocence awaiting the call nerding out natural gifts magnetism 26:14 harmony sacred space solitude like all of that is for the hermit um so it says 26:21 people with the hermit profile need ample alone time to be immersed in their interest and natural talents does that 26:27 resonate yes it does okay okay and then I don't I don't think 26:33 you want me to read the whole paragraph the whole page there's plenty of information and then you said four was 26:40 your second line yes two four two four okay so four is the opportunist 26:46 acceptance friendship investment um networks community opportunity 26:52 connection if you have a four profile relationships are your currency you're a 26:58 natural connector of people and thrive by pouring energy into your social network it's the opposite 27:09 you know what's funny is um I love being social but then I also need the hermit 27:16 time like absolutely like I absolutely have to unplug and be away um so all of 27:22 that resonates and you find it's funny like because people define themselves as being an extrovert in introvert human 27:29 design throws all of that out the window and tells you "Listen you're both 27:35 here's why here's why." And I heard too that your body graph so this is the way 27:42 you were supposed to be like designed and that's if you're living up to your like your highest self like the highest 27:49 best version of you that's what I've heard i can't remember who said that in the human design world but someone said 27:56 that and I was like that makes total sense because I don't like before I knew human design I was not living like this 28:02 i was living opposite of this so if I'm fully in my human design living like I'm 28:08 supposed to every all of the these channels and gates and everything will 28:13 come alive oh neat okay yeah and so channels do you want to talk 28:20 about any of your channels i only have one and that's the channels because the 28:25 channels from what I understand is when it's fully connected so I have the 44 28:31 and the 26 fully connected and that's the only one see if I can show mine okay 28:37 so this is mine looks like you might have two yeah I think I do have two yeah 28:43 um and I think so based on um Aaron Claire Jones um when I by the 28:52 way Erin Clair Jones does um a reading for I think it's under $100 but it's 28:58 it's a little pricey um if you are that curious about you know your design and 29:04 want to deep dive even further into it and I believe you're referencing a book did you um so this this is also Aaron 29:12 Claire Jones okay um but I do I have a book as well um a modern guide to human 29:19 design so you can definitely like just buy a book i got this off of Amazon um I 29:24 don't remember how much I paid 20ome maybe for it um but but if you get like 29:30 your free chart like you can get your chart anywhere and then if you want to like deep dive on your own without 29:37 someone like telling you you can just get a great book like this and deep dive into it because it gives you all the 29:43 channels it gives you um the profiles the like the auras for the different 29:53 um like projector reflector like all of that so it's really really good um if 29:59 you want to start somewhere a little bit cheaper for example if you don't want to pay because I can't remember I bought my 30:06 reading back in 2023 okay uh similar similar yeah I think it 30:12 was 2024 um I just printed this out today actually and that's what it said 30:19 um yeah November of 2023 is when I got this okay um yeah so there's several 30:26 ways you can get your human design at a more affordable price um and there's a lot of information for free online as 30:33 well um and then once you start deep diving into it you'll realize you want to learn more which is nice this is such 30:40 an awesome tool like I I love it it's like I and I believe um let's see it 30:46 tells me I think in the front of the book where human des like it incorporates everything like astrology 30:55 the Chinese Iing the chakras so that's like the energy centers that we're 31:01 talking about the the tree of life um so it incorporates everything and you can 31:09 even see like here's like a detailed Yeah 31:15 so do you before I go into our channels do you know um you know based on human 31:20 design is it does it incorporate all of that into its reading so it's it's an 31:26 incorporation of lots of cultures and Yes 31:31 yes um because I was trying to see so it uses the 31:37 360°ree astrological wheel and the 12 signs of the western zodiac 31:43 um to calculate the energies 31:48 um at play when you were born so and then like I said the ching the chakra 31:54 system and the tree of life wow okay i 31:59 didn't realize it was that invasive yes um so it incorporates a lot and like it 32:06 it's just it's a lot of lot of information but just like I I would suggest starting small first just learn 32:14 what you are and just like if you're a projector a reflector a man a generator 32:19 or a manifesttor and then go from there like you don't have to know all the details like even if you just learn that 32:26 you're for example a projector and that rest is good for you and you know um you 32:32 are a guide not a doer right and all those things and that you're supposed to 32:37 wait for the invitation and um if you're out of alignment you will feel like 32:43 bitterness or frustration like it gives you all of that mhm so according to my 32:49 design my channels are and if this makes sense um beauty and marketing and I'm not sure 33:00 if that makes sense in the in your book um but when explained um my gifts and 33:07 channels are um beauty as it entails I 33:13 guess um creating beautiful things around me so my 33:20 strong suit I guess um would be embodying beauty around me at all 33:28 times um creating beauty in the world around you um designing and you know and 33:35 it kind of mentions that people that have this gift ch generally tend to 33:41 um become designers in some form or fashion um or you know they just they 33:49 have a very large creative outlet um so I'm artistic for sure i've always been 33:56 artistic um I never went into a profession of design but design has always been part of my life in all of my 34:03 like every type of work environment I've been in i end up being in design 34:08 somewhere in that work environment so um well that makes sense that resonated 34:16 yeah that resonated with me and I I wondered you know um why I was like that 34:21 so that that's fun to know um and then I guess marketing was my second one um and 34:27 and like you mentioned before socialization being able to connect with people um that is one of my gifts so I 34:36 think all of that resonates with me what about you um well before that I wanted 34:42 to read my book so what number numbers are we looking at h 57 and 10 34:51 57 and 10 okay so 57 and 34:58 10 so let's see what it says just interested to see okay 57 and 35:06 10 so um so separately 57 is the gate of 35:13 intuitive insight um you receive a lot of information from around from about 35:19 the world through your right ear um leaning into your instincts is 35:26 healthy for you um you may find yourself afraid of the future and the unknown 35:32 you are designed to have selective hearing it's okay to filter out some 35:38 things um by staying rooted in in your in the- moment intuition you 35:46 can trust that you'll always know what to do so that's gate 57 by itself now gate 35:52 10 by itself is the gate of behavior of the self so you're here to cultivate 35:58 self-love and acceptance it's important for you to live authentically and by 36:03 loving yourself you give other people you give other people the freedom to do 36:08 the same okay so together they are intuitively 36:14 creating a beautiful life okay you are here to create for the love 36:22 of creating by doing what you enjoy your unique way of expressing yourself 36:27 inspires the people around you when you enjoy the present moment and honor your spontaneous instincts everything you 36:34 create and do is beautiful you can trust your intuition it is rarely wrong you 36:40 may find that you're good at thinking on your feet so trust your impulses 36:46 okay which I'm trying to do and that's difficult sometimes so yeah that's great 36:53 that's so cool that is so cool okay so for me mine the only one I only have one 37:02 is 44 and 26 okay so gate 44 by itself is the gate 37:10 of alertness you're naturally good at sensing other people's gifts and skills 37:15 i guess that's why I'm always was trying to give advice because I see a potential in 37:21 people um your mind may not always understand what you're picking up on but your 37:28 instincts are drawing on past experiences stored at the cellular level even though you know exactly what people 37:35 are good at you may not have the willpower to actually manage their energy and bring out their gifts 37:41 okay so then gate 26 by itself is the gate of the egoist 37:48 you have the ability to sell anything by seeing its potential and marketing it if 37:54 you are putting your energy towards something you need to make sure you're rewarded for your ability and 38:00 effort ideally you can get to a place where you don't have to work at all by earning passive income that's so 38:07 interesting because I've always wanted passive income 38:13 you may not always be able to read the room or figure out who you should sell 38:18 to collaborate with someone who can find you solid leads so the channel together is 38:27 instinctual selling when you meet someone you naturally know how to talk to them explain something or sell an 38:34 idea literally or figuratively you can always trust your instincts when you're communicating with someone you are 38:40 naturally attuned to what they want or need to hear when you talk to someone 38:46 it's okay to have an end goal you're trying to achieve as long as you believe in what you're selling you are good at 38:51 recommending things to other people because you can quickly gauge what they need and like you work more efficiently 38:58 than most people so finding a way to be paid passively or for working very few hours will benefit you 39:06 working a few hours and passively you sold me 39:11 right so knowing that what do you do in your life now like what decisions do you make like what's the the draw for you 39:18 like knowing that information well even though like I because I've read this before and for me like I've never felt 39:25 like I was good at selling anything like because I've been in network 39:30 marketing before and it flunked i've done like I think two or three network 39:36 marketing companies i've done affiliate marketing and they never were like they never went anywhere and I think it's 39:43 because subconsciously I did not enjoy it like I was I was selling how to 39:50 market basically or selling like um the very first one I was doing was like um 39:57 uh health pills so okay I was just I was like "Yeah okay cool let's try it out." 40:04 But I never felt like I was good at selling it and now like at the moment 40:09 I'm just doing what I like to do you know i love talking about this kind of stuff i love doing sound baths i like my 40:16 crystals as you can see like I love all that kind of stuff so for now I'm just 40:22 doing what I love doing yeah well and I think um you love the the subject of 40:30 human design so it comes out as enthusiasm and actually you're the one that kind of got me more into it because 40:37 I you know I liked it but it it didn't seem like it was something that I was very interested in but your enthusiasm 40:43 and passion for it kind of bled into me and it made me want to learn more so I actually purchased a a program because 40:50 you had done it so I think you in inadvertently sold it without realizing you sold it yeah I guess I 40:58 did and I'll just talk about what I love to like whatever interests me because you know as being a one three two like I 41:06 like if something interests me I will research it and I will research it and then I guess I just talk about what I 41:12 like so and what I find out so I guess maybe that's how that channel will work 41:18 for me i don't know we'll see only the future will tell 41:24 right well and it's fun to to talk about that you know knowing the information knowledge is power right so now that you 41:30 know you know the the the channels and the gifts that you have you can narrow in on it and make your life a lot 41:37 smoother because now you know that information which is the neat part in my opinion oh yeah for 41:44 sure it's always fun it's always fun to deep dive into the things that you know interest you and especially when it's 41:50 about yourself right exactly a human design is all about you like Yeah right well and it's 41:59 also what you resonate with too um and again like I said before you know if it doesn't quite resonate now it will 42:06 eventually i think in my opinion uh in my belief system that's what has happened to me so take it with you know 42:14 a grain of salt until you read it again and maybe it might resonate later um in a different part of your life so that's 42:20 the part that's also cool you can tailor it yeah anytime any any way you like 42:26 which is fun yeah are there any other like gates or channels you want to know about on yours 42:33 i So I can I can read them if you want to know so um funnily enough your your channel 42:39 was the same as mine my second one oh so there you go 42:46 right and what's really interesting is that I am in sales like that's my job well there you go 42:53 and you love your job right i do yeah you love marketing and selling where as 42:59 me I feel the complete opposite i'm just like yeah I don't know about that i don't know because when I think of marketing and sales I think of like I 43:06 don't know like a car salesman type of person i mean yeah yeah well and and 43:12 really um for me uh and that resonated because what I found what I thought was 43:18 key in your description was believing in what you're selling um if you believe in 43:23 it it's not selling anymore um it's really just your passions coming out and it's infecting other people so you're 43:31 just sharing what you love at that point right exactly and you don't have to read the room and and you know zero in on a 43:38 subject you can just be yourself and that's the cool part and that's your 43:43 gift which is cool yeah i just need to learn how to I guess do it i mean I 43:50 guess with this podcast I'm doing it yeah of course and even um I think you 43:55 just did a which you can announce this if you want to but you just did a crystals um deep dive yeah and I to be 44:03 honest reading that deep dive made me want to buy specific crystals so 44:10 hey I'm not influencing you to buy crystals i just want the information so you like if you already have a crystal 44:18 and you don't know about it and it's just like sitting you know in your room somewhere and you're like "Oh well I 44:24 have that what what is it for exactly?" Maybe you bought it because it was just pretty or maybe you bought it just 44:29 because you know you wanted to decorate your room or whatever i don't know but yeah I made that PDF basically just 44:37 because I also wanted a beginnerfriendly crystals PDF because like I love 44:43 crystals but I don't know a whole bunch about them right so I wanted something that would also help me too so as I help 44:51 myself I'm helping other people who are beginners in crystals um you know learn 44:57 what the crystals do what some affirmations are what good pairings go together all that kind of stuff yeah and 45:06 knowing your human design it also like it it's no effort at all you know you 45:12 found something that you're passionate about that you wanted more information about you're waiting for an invitation 45:17 for people well I I think with that I don't have to wait for the invitation because it's out 45:23 there you can literally like it's on Instagram it's on the website like and it's free you don't have to put in your 45:30 email or anything you literally can go to the blog page click get my PDF and 45:35 there it is and you can print it out and have you know to to journal in or whatever you want to do with yeah which 45:43 is amazing and I think that's awesome that you put that out there which you know actually leads me to another point 45:49 about being a projector and waiting for an invitation um you g that there was 45:54 that was an invitation to yourself um you asked yourself I need more 45:59 information on on this particular subject and that was the invitation for you to go and flow with your energetic 46:06 gifts right so um you don't you and that also allowed you to put something out 46:12 into the universe that everyone who asks to have it is that invitation to you so 46:18 your flow is in that document for everyone to to be to absorb whenever 46:25 they want it i think it's so cool so you used your human design gift in multiple 46:31 ways yeah and I didn't even realize I was doing it i was just doing it like I didn't have to think about it and be 46:37 like let me go to my page here and see is how to do it right like I just I just 46:43 did it like that's because I wanted to do it and I wanted something for myself as well like I said um and for other 46:50 people that you know want that information right you know I think it's 46:56 also important to differentiate the the difference between waiting for an invitation as a projector and making 47:04 decisions in life um because I I don't necessarily resonate with the fact that you need an invitation for every aspect 47:11 of your life um but I do think that when you're blasting your gift that is where 47:17 the invitation comes in um but if you're wondering whether to move to Wisconsin 47:22 or not that's not really something in my opinion that has to be 47:29 attached to an invitation but what what are your thoughts on that so I agree so when I first read like I'm supposed to 47:35 wait for an invitation I was like "What the hell?" Like I gotta sit around and twiddle my thumbs and wait like I'm 47:42 going to be waiting my whole life and then when I read more into it and more into it it's like not everything right 47:49 do what you love to do but you're waiting for an invitation for like in my 47:54 case like the the um advice giving don't just go around telling people what you 48:01 think would help them wait for them to you know say something that will be an 48:08 invitation you know it could be like let's go to the invitation actually cuz that's in the book okay waiting for the 48:21 invitation okay so it's saying like when someone else recognizes and acknowledges 48:26 your value and shows interest in what you have to offer it's the first step in 48:32 being invited into their world so even if people show an interest in whatever 48:38 you're doing that's also an invitation it doesn't literally have to be hey you're invited right you're invited to 48:45 this party right it doesn't have to be worded exactly like that um once you're 48:52 invited to share your insights you have the opportunity to do what you do best guide and organize other people's 49:00 energy um also the invitation does not mean you have to accept that's another 49:06 important thing so you don't always have to say yes to everything cuz that is one thing I would say I would probably did 49:13 in the past was I was always saying yes to things I did not really want to do 49:19 yes like you want to go out sure and then there were sometimes I was like I'd 49:25 say sure and deep down I'm like no I'd rather not but I'll go anyway 49:31 or I'll do this even though I don't feel like doing this right now yes that was 49:36 actually quite an adjustment when I first read my design because I realized that I needed invitations so I was 49:42 taking every invitation and saying yes um because I was afraid that the invitation would no longer exist if I 49:49 said no um but that's not always the case so I do think that there's caution there um deciding when to expend your 49:57 energy what's important to you and in alignment with you and not you know giving everything to everyone at all 50:04 times and saying yes all the time i agree with that yeah so you just want to 50:10 make sure that you saying yes to something is is something you actually really want to do and is in alignment 50:16 with your energy at the time like if you feel like you need a nap or a rest day 50:21 or a break or whatever don't just say yes to to anything and everything because that that will burn you out for 50:28 sure quickly yes I've been there right and being a protector knowing when 50:35 your energy is done um when you've used everything that you have um and needing 50:40 to refill your cup you can't say yes to something you know after you're spent so 50:47 knowing being able to understand yourself and where you stand is helpful 50:54 yep I agree with that too absolutely 51:00 yep oh sorry what for you has been examples of invitations i was curious 51:07 about that oh I was looking for it um so 51:12 maybe it wasn't in this book it might have been in like somewhere I read online um 51:18 or for you personally like what have you seen that was an invitation as an example um that you've experienced as a 51:27 projector i have a few myself i was just gonna say 51:33 probably just people like maybe interested in like what I'm doing now like that that like my friend Sarah is 51:41 very interested in everything I do she even downloaded the crystal PDF oh yeah 51:47 i because I told her what I was doing and she was like so excited she's like "Oh I can't wait to see it." And I was like "I'll let you know when it's done." 51:54 So she downloaded it and she loved it so I guess that is kind of the invit the 52:00 only invitation that I can think of at the moment 52:05 um maybe job-wise as well like I So I 52:10 was working I was working at a place that I didn't really like that much and I went to an interview for another 52:18 place and initially I told them I wanted to be 52:24 part-time okay part-time okay so they interviewed me and 52:30 everything and they sent me the offer letter that said full-time and I said "No no no no 52:36 no part time." We discussed part-time and they were like "Oh it's only if you 52:41 know in the future." And I was like "No I'm not i'm not going to do it." So 52:47 weeks later maybe a month or two later they come back a different store the same guy that interviewed me 52:53 said "A different store is looking for a part-time person are you interested?" 52:58 That is an invitation right right so I was like "Let me think." I I was like 53:06 "I'll think about it." And I had to like pull in my intuition be like "Do I really want this anymore is it do I am I 53:14 you know I had to weigh the options and like really listen to what I wanted and in the end I said yes 53:21 and how was the outcome for you though like after you said yes so the outcome 53:26 is like I love the job itself um everything is good but now my problem is 53:33 I'm still at the very first place so I have two part-time jobs okay okay i have 53:39 two part time jobs at the moment and now I'm thinking because now there are days 53:45 that I felt like I've I'm working full-time again and I'm like I'm feeling 53:51 burnt out again and I think I need to let the very first one go and I'm thinking I may 53:58 okay but knowing your limits and knowing when your expended energy is out is kind 54:04 of huge though i wonder if you would have known that before you had known human design would you have I would I'd 54:11 probably just stay at both because of the money right the money i need the money right but when I'm looking at the 54:19 money I'm making more money at the second place versus the first place so 54:24 and I was surviving on the first place so I can I know I can survive on the 54:31 second place because I do get more hours there as well you know what I mean right right 54:39 right logically it makes sense logically it makes sense which shows the universe is working itself in your favor by 54:46 following the right path right that's cool yeah i love that that's super neat 54:54 yeah because for like for me like I want to do the woo woo full-time right but 55:00 right now my energy is spent being spent at both my jobs and then the the one day 55:07 now that I've given myself I typically work four days so like three days at the second place and one day or two 55:14 depending at the first place so I end up working for like last week I 55:21 work ended up working I think six days actually because I screwed 55:27 myself I only had like Friday off and I was like what in the 55:33 world yeah I messed up and I was like okay well whatever I know for next time 55:38 but anyway so now like knowing that knowing my that I'm allowed to rest 55:44 right i'm a protector i'm allowed to rest i that's how I'm built i'm not built to go go and then try and do the 55:52 woo woo on top of that right i need to let one go so I can make space for the 55:58 woowoo okay that's cool i love that though i love that it gives you that 56:03 opportunity which is so cool that's awesome yeah what about you any 56:11 invitations recently yeah so I was trying to think of um 56:17 invitations there are so many now that I'm paying attention um but one that really stands out to me um it's funny 56:25 like so I got into sound bath therapy as a side hobby and I loved it and I it was 56:32 healing people and I was just excited to offer all the healing modalities to the whole world and I'm part of this I'm 56:40 part of this um therapy group of a bunch of women and I remember going one night and I was like I do sound therapy if 56:47 anybody wants to do it i even brought a bowl with me like I was showing it off i was giving out everything and they did 56:54 not like it it was not appreciated one woman was like it hurts 57:01 my ears please put that away and I felt so discouraged and wow right so this 57:07 shows when you don't get the invitation and you do push out your energy to something and it's not appreciated there 57:13 is a lot of frustration bitterness that comes with that right so after one of the ladies actually 57:20 approached me and she said "Your stuff is weird and woo woo but I know a girl who is also just as weird and woo woo as 57:27 you here's her phone number why don't you contact her and like get together with her?" Oh okay so there's an 57:34 invitation okay that came out of something that I was trying to push out but wasn't it wasn't received so the 57:41 universe is giving me the invitation so I contact this other woowoo girl and she 57:47 loves it okay and we kind of become a partnership a little and a few days 57:54 later she texts me and she was like "I I gave your name to this therapy group that wants to promote sound bats i gave 58:00 your information to them i get a phone call from this therapy group and they're like "We'd love to hire you for 58:07 soundback therapy for our to promote our business." And I said 58:13 "Okay." Then I get invited to go and I'm paid for this gig right i go to this 58:20 therapy group um which is Insight Counseling it's a great therapy group by the way just a little tiny plug um but 58:27 after I'm doing a therapy session or I'm doing a sound bath with this group 58:32 another woman comes up to me and says "I have a women's retreat group that I would love to to hire you for for a 58:38 sound bath for our women's retreat." And so invitation after invitation after 58:43 invitation and it showed me that actually gave me that like push that I 58:48 need to pay attention more to my human design because at first like my first initial like I'm throwing this out there 58:54 was not received very well but that's because I was not given the invitation and it show it it's very clear to me now 59:03 that I have to wait for an invitation because when I do it just expands so 59:08 much bigger you attract the people that want to be like attracted to you and it 59:14 makes such a difference to people's lives when you are in alignment with human design so to me invitation is huge 59:22 um and I've it's difficult sometimes to like hold yourself back and wait for the 59:28 invitation and make those mistakes yeah like so I throw myself out there and then I see 59:34 what I'm getting and I'm like h I need to remember not to do that um so it's hard sometimes but I will say that's 59:41 been my experience with invitations there's many more like that that I've I've encountered since I've researched 59:48 human design so it's fun yeah I could probably say I have more of the giving the invitation when I'm not supposed to 59:55 rather than waiting for the invitation and expanding right probably have more 1:00:01 examples of the the opposite right i know it's hard 1:00:06 throw out throw it all out and then they're just like "Yeah no." Or they just like looking at you like "What are 1:00:14 you talking about?" Like or just like "Go away leave me alone." 1:00:19 Yes i actually had another experience where I was posting online just freely 1:00:25 creatively happily posting online about my sound by therapy and I had a um an 1:00:30 old coworker that I hadn't talked to in several years messaged me and he was like you know I've been following you 1:00:35 for years and he's like and I just never paid attention to your post i thought they were super weird and he's like but 1:00:42 now I'm having an issue and I would like your advice on something like healthwise based on there so it shows like I think 1:00:50 that even though you know you can throw stuff out there and put your energy out there it's really the invitation that 1:00:56 makes a difference to people um and that's where your energy is supposed to be directed and flow flowing at so I 1:01:03 don't think you shouldn't like hold yourself back to attract those but I do think that um saving some of that energy 1:01:10 and saying no and saying yes to the ones that really matter to me in my opinion 1:01:15 is what makes the difference yeah and I don't think you should like wait like if you have like in any social 1:01:22 media it doesn't matter what it is instagram Tik Tok Facebook whatever like if you're doing your own thing that's 1:01:29 kind of your space anyway regardless so I think you can push out what you want 1:01:34 to push out because people will follow you or unfollow you you know it doesn't matter um but like if you're in person 1:01:42 and you're pushing out your stuff I think that's where the like the 1:01:48 bitterness will come in because then that's when people can be like "Yeah no that's weird go away." 1:01:54 Yeah 100% that's the frustration too like it's it's not and I think that's part of 1:02:01 being a projector as well not having the invitation it's 10 times worse the frustration in my opinion um giving out 1:02:08 your energy and seeing something that you can fix that needs to be fixed but 1:02:14 not it not being received is so frustrating so 1:02:19 it's fun knowing human designs because that helps you rectify that I guess yeah 1:02:26 absolutely and I think all the like the the types kind of like work together so 1:02:32 like where where whereas like wait for the invitation other people are like 1:02:37 responding to something i can't remember who which one that was um so I think 1:02:43 they all kind of work together which is great because then everybody on the planet can just kind of work together 1:02:49 yes and yeah each one when I was researching human design each one has their unique um gifts and abilities 1:02:56 which is so fun um so it's it's like every single person has gifts and that's 1:03:03 the fun part is understanding friends and family too and where they you know 1:03:08 where their gifts are as well and how it matches yours and that's pretty fun yeah and then when like if you can get their 1:03:14 chart right and then you can compare your chart and be like what do I have and what do you not have that I fill and 1:03:21 vice versa you know what I mean right that's always fun i agree 1:03:27 i agree so yeah is there anything else you would like to um add 1:03:35 no um I would just say about um mostly everything i know i would say I mean I 1:03:41 think we're focused more on our projector um you know the archetype but 1:03:47 I do think that the other researching the other human design um aspects are 1:03:53 fun even if it's not really you it is neat to learn about the other other ones 1:04:00 um and then I would say also take it uh slow because for me when I first started 1:04:06 human design it was overwhelming uh there's a lot of information it is so much um so just taking it a little bite 1:04:13 at a time when you're starting the journey of human design is is my advice 1:04:19 uh because that's what kind of helped me what about you Marie yeah the same because it is a lot of information um 1:04:27 just like I said when even when I first looked at the body graph I was like what am I looking at i don't understand 1:04:33 anything but if you just start out with like your type I would say your type 1:04:39 because you will know what you are projector manifesttor reflector whatever right um your strategy do you wait for 1:04:47 the invitation do you wait to respond or the other ones that I can't remember at the moment um like your your inner 1:04:56 authority too we didn't talk about that um but mine is tuning into intuition 1:05:02 mhm um and then your not self theme which for projectors is bitterness so 1:05:09 like when you are out of alignment and you are just spilling out how do you feel do you feel bitter do you feel 1:05:16 angry typically I do um and then I think knowing your profile too is interesting 1:05:23 so like you're one like I'm the one three you're the two four um and 1:05:29 there's six lines I think um so there's and there's multiple 1:05:35 um like one yeah combinations thank you that's the word I'm looking for 1:05:41 multiple combin combinations um so like learning that and seeing if any of that 1:05:47 resonates for you so for me like definitely the one three resonates with me because I love to research things and 1:05:54 then all my life I have just been a very big risk taker i've always just jumped into things and I learn by trial and 1:06:01 error like I it doesn't matter if someone gives me a book on steps one 1:06:06 through you know 10 i have to do it myself and learn how to do it for me 1:06:12 like what way works that's cool so yeah that really 1:06:18 resonated with me so yeah I think just learning learning your type and then and 1:06:24 then later once you understand that later go into like the gates and the 1:06:29 channels and then the uh incarnation cross which I haven't even dove into 1:06:35 mine yet um but I'm so interested to learn what that is 1:06:41 what what would that be in your human design is it just um past lives or what 1:06:47 so the incarnation cross is going to be whatever your design up here your numbers are it's the first 1:06:55 first um let's see I think it's the first top 1:07:01 the top two or something yes the top two on your left and your right okay 1:07:10 and then you'll also understand later that one side is your conscious side and 1:07:16 one side is your unconscious side okay 1:07:22 yeah so and um or they call it personality or design so like your I 1:07:28 think your conscious is your personality and then your your unconscious is your design part oh ne so it's like how and I 1:07:37 think some too like it will be like how other people see 1:07:42 you right I I can't remember it's so much information but just start small 1:07:48 don't get overwhelmed don't get overwhelmed but still that's neat that's neat to 1:07:54 know it's fun it is fun it shows you can deep dive into this world and it shows 1:07:59 that's why sometimes it's nice to speak to an expert um because they can really help navigate the world for you and 1:08:05 what's important and what's not you know based on what you want to know absolutely 1:08:14 yes well um I think um for our projectors there's um just some 1:08:20 questions like if you are a projector and you know you're a projector or if you look up your chart and later come 1:08:26 back and find out you're a projector um here are some questions just a few questions to ponder on um when do you 1:08:35 feel most seen or valued and what lifestyle feels most 1:08:42 luxur luxurious to you and then the last one where do you 1:08:49 most enjoy lending perspective and e expertise to others 1:08:55 so that will help clarify like what success will mean for you because that 1:09:01 is your in alignment love it so yep i will um I'll write 1:09:09 those questions on the show notes so like if you don't know you're a projector and later you come back and 1:09:15 you find out you are and you want those questions you don't have to listen to
