Ever wonder why some people seem to grow into their leadership over time, almost as if they're being shaped by life itself?

In this episode, Nicole explores the 6/2 Human Design profile — the Role Model/Hermit — and what makes this path so unique, complex, and ultimately powerful. If you're someone who feels like you're living in chapters, or if life has been asking you to slow down, reflect, and rise when the time is right, this one will resonate deeply.

Nicole unpacks the three life phases of the 6-line journey, how the Hermit’s natural gifts are revealed over time, and why the role model energy of the 6/2 isn’t something you chase — it’s something you grow into. She also breaks down how this profile compares to the 3/6 and 4/6, why the rooftop years are so important, and how the call to leadership usually shows up.

You’ll walk away with a better understanding of why things may not have made sense in your first few decades — and why your most important work might be just beginning. With real-world examples of famous 6/2s and honest reflections on how to embrace this profile fully, this episode is both grounding and inspiring.

Whether you are a 6/2 or love someone who is, this conversation will help you see the brilliance in the timing, the beauty in the waiting, and the power in finally being seen. Listen now!
