Love Affair With Human Design

Human Design has been pulling me so strongly ever since I discovered it early in 2020. And it was not some form of blind following the dogma either. 

It was deeper than that. 

Something clicked. Something whispered: “…this is it, Juliette, this is IT!” 

And it just made sense for me. It gave me insights beyond imaginable into people around me. 

And through them into me and my world…

As a Projector myself, I can only share those insights with people who see and recognise my light. Who are open for it to shine upon them and draw those secret hidden visions. Or perhaps, the right ideas that were always there in the first place, quietly waiting for their turn to emerge. This is what I always have, ever since I was a little girl,  helped people with: see themselves embracing that bigger vision of themselves.

And of course, I knew straight away what discovering Human Design meant for me. I knew it with a full-body YES feeling. (If you are familiar with Human Design, this is the Splenic way, just knowing “in the moment”.

An interesting observation about the Splenic “knowledge” is that in another moment, it can respond differently to the same thing. This is why I learned to try not to commit to anything because whatever feels right now may not feel right (AT ALL) when time passes and that intial invitation “expires”. 

I used to bottle it and carry on, but it was killing me inside. I felt that I am in a “dead’ relationships where exchange of value is no longer flowing both ways. Getting paid when I feel I am not giving (or indeed, receiving value – energetically speaking) was not a sweet feeling.

And that is not good for both my business and feeling seen and recognised alike. It sort of paralyzes you creatively. Camps in your lizzard brain. Which means no energy or inspiration to attract more people, as this incorrect relationships with one person now almost poisons the energy field.  And not being inspired to create fundamental pieces for my marketing means less client attraction. So I pretty much cannot afford it.

In the past, before I learnt about my design, it was easier to just “cut it” without an explanation. It probably still is, because explaining ourselves can leave even more scars. (Just let me go if that happens between us one day.)

But being aware of the energy mechanics behind this situation is so powerful. I no longer have to feel bad and I can structure my work and my business around the need to have bookends in my containers. Or simply allow myself to break my own “rules” if ever I need to let go of anyone or anything that no longer serves my bigger purpose. It sounds awful to say it out loud. But it is not arrongant. It is self-care at its best – this is what I learnt from my Human Design experiment.

Energy is a HUGE thing for me. It always has been. 

Human Design let me see that there is such a valid reason for that feeling of total fatigue that I often experience. 

It can be physical, or mental, or emotional or all three at the same time. And it is absolutely normal to someone like me… yet the world does not operate by the Projectors rules and ways. 

We live in a world where 70% of population are Generators, somewhat affecting the shoulds and style of our social interaction. I wrote about it in my article on Generators and Projectors compatibility. That is where the danger lies, as it makes people who do not have the “motors” to produce the energy of their own, feel so inadequate and disempowered. And yet it is not a Generator’s world, as the societal, cutural and religious rules we all learn are not really aligned with anyone’s energy type. 

Human Design allowed me and increasingly continues to enable me to find empowerment in the way I am. And more – it allowed me to trust my intuition and my “third eye” when it comes to “seeing” and guiding others. 

Even before I ever knew about the existence of HD, I had joked about my third eye (the little ornament I always have on my shelf behind me – you can see it in some of my videos or selfies taken in my office.) 

And right now, it pulls me towards my truth again and again. 

And with all my dedication to all my current clients, no matter how scary it is to invite myself into what is calling me so loudly, I want to help people like me show up so they can be SEEN and RECOGNISED by the right ones in their audiences. 

I am consciously letting go of the strategies that, although they traditionally look like they make sense in marketing, are actually damaging for Projectors and repelling clients from them, leaving them disempowered, secretly hating where they are at and feeling EXHAUSTED from the whole thing. 

Here is another discovery that I find super empowering for a Projector -it doesn’t matter what “should” be. 

ALL that matters is if you FEEL it inside. 

If you get chills when you say it or type it. Like, I am getting chills typing this now. 

THIS is where I speak my truth!

THIS is what divides and holds Projectors back from finally living “in the flow” (the only state that creates that magnetic pull for the right invitations to come into their lives: people, money, opportunities).

It is SO much bigger than marketing strategies. 

This is EVERYTHING. 

This is happiness. 

This is SUCCESS. 

This is feeling SEEN. 

This is what we desire. 

And this is what I’ve become an ambassador for!

Thank you for being on this journey with me! From now on I am allowing myself to stop trying to show up as an expert in marketing, but as an expert in marketing that is fully aligned with who you are. I am actively walking my talk and as I am discovering more and empowering myself even more to truly own the elements of my Design.

Here is a peep at my chart if that is of interest to you!
