59. How to Talk to a Human Design Skeptic
Human Design is a great system for getting to know your energy better and for understanding how to live a completely aligned life. Unfortunately, not everyone is sold on the system. And you may be living with one. Honestly, living with a Human Design skeptic - or even just being in a close relationship with one - can be tough. They don't seem to understand why you can't "just do it", and they seem judgmental towards your attitude about copious amounts of rest. Is it even possible for a Human Design enthusiast and a Human Design skeptic to co-exist, let alone live peacefully together?! The answer, of course, is yes. And this episode of That Projector Life will walk you through how to talk to your skeptic - not necessarily to convince them that Human Design works - but to show them that what you're doing works for them. It's more about getting your skeptic to support you even if they don't understand or believe in Human Design (because it's totally possible). Also, I'm offering myself and my husband up as Exhibit A for a Human Design enthusiast living with a skeptic. So I'll be talking about my experiences living with a skeptic.

58. Exploring the G Center
We're exploring the G center in this episode! And I'm going to let you in on a little secret (this is, by far, the coolest center in Human Design.) Not only is the G center the place for love and direction, but it's also the seat of the Magnetic Monopole, which we'll talk about in more depth. If you have a defined G center, then you have a consistent personality and are usually more connected to your core self. BUT that's not always the case, especially when you're a projector and are open to the conditioning and energies of others. So we'll talk about how to rediscover your true self and my experiences with that. If you have an undefined G center, we'll talk about that, too! Because you still have an in-built sense of direction. It just works a little differently. If you want to go even deeper into the G Center, check out Episode 115 - Exploring Love and Direction Through the G Center.

57. Human Design Relationship Pairings: Projectors With the 5 Types
Wondering how Human Design dynamics play out in relationships? In this episode, we're taking each type and pairing them up with the Projector type to chat about how the energy of that relationship functions (as well as what to watch out for). We'll walk through each relationship and note what to look for and how each type can support the other to create a healthy relationship in which everyone lives in alignment with their Human Design type. And yes, we'll also cover the potential drawbacks to each relationship and talk about how you can get over those rough patches.

56. A Deeper Look at the Root Center
When I posted about my struggles with my undefined root center on Instagram, I didn't expect to get the wave of responses that I did. I was blown away with how many people related to my post - and by how many also commented and said they wanted to learn more about the root center. I've already done an episode on Human Design pressure centers (episode 23, in case you're wondering), so I thought I'd covered the root center. But I was wrong. So in this episode, we're focusing exclusively on the pressure + motor center at the bottom of the BodyGraph - the root center. This little sucker is usually the source of a lot of pain, pressure, stress, and anxiety because many of us don't know how to manage stress well - and because we also are feeling stress that isn't even ours. Let that sink in. If you have an undefined root center, you're feeling stress and pressure that may not be yours. And you don't need to process or hold onto other people's stress. You need to release it. And we'll talk about that in this episode. We'll cover What the root center is The energy present in the center and how it isn't all bad...or all good The 2 ways of dealing with root center pressure Tips for living with an undefined root center Episode Links Become a Patron and get access to exclusive content + early access to TPL episodes!

55. How to Plan as a Projector
This week’s That Projector Life episode is all about planning as a Human Design Projector. (And if you missed last week’s episode about setting goals as a projector, go back and listen to it, because this episode builds on that one.) If you’re anything like me, planning is both fun and stressful. It’s fun because I get to feel like I’m in control of things. It’s also fun because I get to think about all the things I can do in a year. But at the same time, planning tends to be stressful and frustrating because...plans change. And if you go all out and try to be super detailed (like I used to be), then it’s easy to spend hours planning out your year or your month, only to have your plans thrown out the window shortly afterward. (This is why I want you to listen to the goal-setting episode first. Because if you’re laying plans towards unaligned goals, things likely aren’t going to go all that well.) The good news is that planning doesn’t have to be stressful. In fact, I think I made it pretty easy to plan out your year (roughly). When I got done recording this episode, I thought, “I should make a yearly plan for my creative writing.” So, roll up your sleeves, pull your calendars out, and start making plans to work towards your goals as a Projector!

52. Understanding Incarnation Crosses
It's time to talk about Human Design incarnation crosses. We've chatted (very briefly) before about how your incarnation cross is your life's purpose. But there's so much more to it than simply looking at your cross and calling it good. In this episode, we're diving deep into crosses and talking about the geometry behind them (no math textbook needed), which quarter of civilization they fall into, and how you can discover your cross. The incarnation cross is a large part of your design and what you're here to do. This episode will help you form a deeper understanding of it.

50. How to Survive the Holidays as a Projector
We're getting closer to that time of year - when we travel across land and sea to be with the ones we love most. (And ironically, they're usually the ones that most make us want to pull our hair out.) And on top of typical family social dynamics, you'll have another factor to consider during your social gatherings: the energetic dynamics. That's where Human Design comes in. In this episode, we're talking about how to survive those energetic dynamics this holiday season, so you can focus more on quality time with your family instead of internalizing all the energy you're picking up that's not yours. We'll cover several different strategies you can use to clear and protect your energy before you enter social situations. Then we'll focus on how you can become an observer during social events. It's time to feel more rested, refreshed, and more like YOU during the holidays. Listen in to find out how.
