That Projector Life
That Projector Life is the podcast for Human Design Projectors who are ready to learn and live their unique design. Hosted by 1/3 Self-Projected Projector Ardelia Lee, this show is all about exploring what it means to be a Projector from a practical standpoint.
You're invited to listen in and dive into the foundations of the Human Design system - along with uniquely Projector topics like waiting for the invitation and recognition. We'll also cover how you can apply what you're learning to your life (practical application is the name of the game).

99. Exploring Your Human Design Perspective
We're tackling the third Human Design variable in this episode. This time, it's all about the bottom right arrow - a.k.a. the perspective. Your perspective in Human Design is essentially what you're here to see. We'll go through each of the 6 perspectives and talk about what each of them means for you. We'll also touch on your distraction or transferred view (this is what you see when you're not in alignment). Ready to find out what you're really here to see? Remember, your perspective is built on your environment and your PHS. If you're not nourishing your body and brain correctly, and if you're not in the right environment, you're likely going to have a more difficult time seeing what you're supposed to.

98. Healing From Toxic Productivity With Melina Charis
Join me and my awesome Projector guest Melina Charis as we talk all things toxic productivity. This is a huge topic for Projectors - the need/pressure/push to be productive. And without a Sacral center to give us consistent energy, we struggle to keep up with the rest of the world. Melina shares her story with us and how she found a way to actually enjoy her business instead of being tied down with all her to-dos. We touch on topics like the cyclical nature of the world (and our bodies), how toxic productivity manifests itself physically, and how you can begin putting an end to toxic productivity in your own business. This conversation with Melina was wonderful, and there were so many gems of wisdom in it, so join us! Connect with Melina on Instagram. Visit Melina's website.

97. How to Work With Your Human Design Environment
Welcome to Part 3 of our Variable Series. We're looking at the bottom left arrow in your Bodygraph, which is all about environment. In Human Design, the environment plays a very important role. Being in the correct environment removes resistance (a.k.a. it can make it easier for you to receive invitations), and the correct environment can nourish you better than an incorrect one. But how do you find out what your environment it and what it means? And how can you create - say a mountain environment - when you live in the middle of Kansas (or any other flat place). We'll talk about all of that and more in this episode. Find your specific variables at Genetic Matrix. Get the Understand Your Variables video series (it’s free).

96. How to Work With the Primary Health System
This episode continues our journey through the Human Design variables. First, we're looking at the top left arrow (which holds the info for Human Design's Primary Health System). We'll talk about how to find your color (which pairs with determination) and tone (which pairs with cognition) and how they impact your life. The Primary Health System is all about nourishing your brain and helping you create a solid foundation for your body so that you can continue moving through each of the variables (the transformations) and achieve full alignment. And yes, this has to do with digestion and how you digest food as well as information. Ready to learn how you can best nourish your mind and body? Remember, the PHS in Human Design is less about WHAT you eat and more about how you consume food. (And yes, that still holds true even for the people who have more specific + rigid regimens in Human Design.) Also, if you're feeling confused about any of this (because it's a complicated topic), there are graphics to help break things down on the blog post at the That Projector Guide site.

95. Understanding Left and Right Variables
We're diving into a topic that's long been requested for the podcast: variables! This episode is a big-picture overview of what variables are. We'll focus on the arrows themselves and whether they face left or right. (Yes, there are more layers to dive into - and we'll do that in the next few episodes). for now, we're building our information foundation so that we don't drown when we move into the deeper water. We'll go through each arrow, talk about what it means for us and what the implications are if it's left-facing or right-facing. I'll also tie everything together at the end and explain why it's important to start with the top left arrow and work your way around. At the very end of the episode, we'll venture into the substructure of the gates (which will come up again in the next few episodes). Ready to dive into variables?

94. How to Hire Aligned People With Human Design
Human Design has a lot of uses, especially when it comes to looking at group dynamics and helping us figure out who may be the best person for a particular job. That being said, make sure not to discount people because their Human Design isn't exactly what you wanted. We're more than our design - and you may find that a Generator is just as crazy about systems and efficiency as any Projector. This episode is diving into how you can hire aligned people using Human Design as a guide. We'll cover the 5 types and what each of their strengths are and where they'd do well in an organization or business. Then we'll move into a more detailed look and give you some extra factors to consider. Let's talk about Human Design, teamwork, and group dynamics!

92. Exploring Human Design Profile Part 2 (3/5, 3/6, 4/6, and 4/1)
We're continuing our journey through the Human Design profiles by wrapping up the right angle (a.k.a. Personal Destiny) profiles and moving into the only Juxtaposed profile. This episode will explore the right-angle 3/5, 3/6, and 4/6 profiles and then finish with the Juxtaposed 4/1 profile. We'll explore how each profile works, how they approach the world, and what they need to be supported. Remember, your profile is your "costume". It's how you live out your incarnation cross - or your life theme. The timestamps for each profile are below. They may not be exact, but I start talking about each profile around the time listed below. 5 minutes - 3/5 profile 13 minutes - 3/6 profile 20:30 minutes - 4/6 profile 28:50 minutes - 4/1 profile Episode Links Become a Patron and get access to exclusive content + early access to TPL episodes!

90. Why Working With Energy Is Important
In this episode, we're talking more about the energetics side of things. It's a departure from our normal cut-and-dry factual episodes, as I walk you through three reasons why it's important for Projectors to work with energy. I also share some of my journey and how I got started working with energy and where I'm going with it now. And honestly, you're already working with energy in one way or another. This time especially is a great chance to begin working with it more intentionally and consciously. Episode Links Become a Patron and get access to exclusive content + early access to TPL episodes!
