The Michelle Chalfant Show — Life from the Adult Chair 492: Human Design Made Simple with Emma Dunwoody
In this episode, I'm joined by behavioral coach and human design expert Emma Dunwoody, author of Human Design Made Simple. Emma and I explore what human design really is (beyond the "woo"), how it maps your unique energetic blueprint and why understanding your type can feel like a deep exhale of self-permission.
This conversation is both practical and inspiring. We talk about why so many of us are exhausted and burned out, how women's energy cycles differ from the 24-hour "hustle" model, and how human design can guide the way you work, parent and build relationships. Emma shares powerful stories from her own life and business, and I share what I discovered in my own chart. Together, we explore how human design can help you shift out of shame and "shoulds" and move into a more aligned, authentic way of living, very much in sync with what it means to live from your Adult Chair.
In this episode, you'll hear:
-
What human design is and how it combines ancient wisdom and modern science into an "energetic blueprint"
