Unshakeable with Human Design - A Human Design For Business Podcast

Have you ever wondered why, no matter how much effort you put in, things still don’t seem to click the way you want them to? In this episode, Nicole explores the subtle but powerful shifts in mindset and energy that can change everything about how you experience business and life. These aren’t just fluffy affirmations—these are practical perspectives that can move you out of frustration and into flow. Through stories from her own journey and conversations with clients, Nicole highlights how easy it is to fall into patterns of doubt, fear, or scarcity without realizing it. She also shows how shifting your energy—even slightly—can open doors you didn’t even realize were available to you. You’ll learn how Human Design can act as a guide for recognizing blind spots and building unshakable trust in yourself. Instead of viewing setbacks as signs to stop, you’ll start to see them as opportunities that strengthen your resilience and align you more deeply with your bigger vision.

What does it really mean to be visible—in your business, your relationships, and even in the bedroom? In this episode, Nicole sits down with Amy Bartko, founder of Chatterbox PR & Marketing, to explore how visibility shows up in every area of life and why it matters more than we think. Amy shares her story of running a successful PR agency while creating a new venture designed to help women reclaim their voice, ask for what they want, and feel confident in being seen. Along the way, she and Nicole connect the dots between Human Design, the Enneagram, and the ways these tools reveal both the challenges and the breakthroughs of showing up authentically. This conversation offers a mix of practical tips—like how to approach PR with confidence and get in front of the right people—and personal insights about navigating judgment, building supportive community, and finding the courage to expand into new chapters. If you’ve ever felt hesitant to put yourself out there, or wondered how to step into more visibility without losing yourself, Amy’s story will inspire you to see what’s possible when you choose to bet on yourself.

What does it really mean to live fully expressed — even when fear shows up at every turn? In this conversation, Judi Holler shares her journey of embracing self-expression, stepping into her power, and transforming fear into fuel. From her roots in improv and professional speaking to the moment she boldly claimed the title of “self-expressionist,” Judi reveals the courage it takes to pursue a path that defies expectations. How do you learn to dance with fear instead of letting it hold you back? Together, we explore the idea that fear isn’t something to conquer but something to befriend, and how building a “tolerance for pain” often separates those who quit too soon from those who find lasting success. Judi also opens up about how Human Design has supported her in recognizing her own energy and honoring her unique way of leading and creating. Ever wondered what it feels like to stop playing small and own the fullness of who you are? Judi takes us behind the scenes of her new book Holler at Your Dreams — part oracle, part creative manifesto — and shares the story of a pivotal moment with IBM that gave her the confidence to stop toning herself down and start showing up bigger and bolder. If you’ve been craving a reminder that the most powerful strategy is simply being yourself, this episode will leave you inspired to chase your own dreams with courage, clarity, and unapologetic authenticity.

Have you ever felt like the world’s best-kept secret—even though you know you’re good at what you do? In this episode, Nicole unpacks the concept of energetic authority and why it’s often the missing piece for entrepreneurs who have the credentials, testimonials, and expertise but still struggle to be seen. You’ll discover how Human Design provides a framework for understanding your energy, while deconditioning and nervous system work help you embody it fully. Nicole explains how owning your energy with confidence creates the magnetism that draws people in—not because of what’s on paper, but because of the presence you bring. She also shares why entrepreneurs often get stuck by reaching for the wrong tools—using strategy when the real issue is energetic, or relying only on spiritual practices when strategy is required. The key lies in knowing how to balance both, and Nicole reveals how to identify what’s truly needed in the moment. If you’ve ever looked at someone with less experience and wondered why they’re attracting more clients, this episode will open your eyes. You’ll leave with a deeper understanding of what it takes to step into your own energetic authority and create success that feels sustainable, magnetic, and aligned.
