Everyone goes through phases in life where they question all the decisions they've made. Whether they're in the right career, if their relationship is right for them or if they're eating right. These are all decisions your Human Design could help you make.
In this episode Toni is talking with Human Design expert Charlotte Hill about what Human Design is, how it can help you be more confident in your decision making, and even analyzing Toni's Human Design chart to help her understand her body and mind better

Speaker 1 (00:00):
We need to talk conversations on wellness with co CFMS
Tony Street.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Hello, welcome to we need to talk. It's lovely to
have you with us. Have you ever asked yourself? Am
I doing what I'm meant to be doing in this world?
Is what I'm doing and how I'm living my life
right for me? And am I reaching my maximum potential?
Human design is attracting success overseas for its ability to
transform people's lives, both personally and professionally, and an increasing
(00:28):
number of corporates, retreats and individuals here in New Zealand
are now exploring human design too. What it is is
a mix of science, psychology, and various Eastern philosophies. It's
a modern system to bring meaning to your life. So
the profiling techniques help you discover your energy type, your
profile type, decision making strategies, your life purpose, you're leading gifts,
(00:51):
your strengths, your leading sense, your digestion profile, and environmental preferences,
all of which I'm quite intrigued to hear, Charlotte Hill
is the fact of key we practice true North well being.
They aim to bring balance, purpose and clarity to your
day using a mix of these individual profiling mind, body,
soul analysis. Her background is in law, media planning, and
(01:13):
high performance athlete management. She studied with the New York
Institute of Integrative Nutrition, the Los Angeles based Mind architect
and my Human Design, which is quite a background, Charlotte,
But why did you get into this field in the
first place.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Well, as you can see, it's very nonlinear my background.
I guess I've always had a passion for wellbeing, but
I had studied law, and I then got into advertising,
and I think in my early twenties I started to
get this swell sense that I had a humanitarian aspect
to me. I'm a life path nine in numerology, which
(01:48):
is very much the humanitarian. But my journey kind of
still kept me on the course of various different things.
As a manifesting generator, you follow your passions, the things
that lights you up, but it's a very sort of
multi pay lifestyle and you just go with the opportunities
as they arise. But eventually I got to the point
where I was like, no, absolutely, I need to pursue
this passion for wellbeing. And that's when I did the
(02:10):
studies that I've done and stumbled across my human design
as well.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
So how do you find out what your energy profile
is and why is it important?
Speaker 4 (02:19):
Why do we need to know it?
Speaker 3 (02:20):
The reason your energy profile is so important is for
managing burnout. So there are five main energy types. We've
got the manifesto pure manifesto, which is the innovator. They
are the people that are here to bring new things
into form. So if you've got a team in a
workplace and you're doing product development, you won't have a
manifesto on board, because are the people that are going
(02:42):
to just create something that hasn't existed previously. The guy
that actually developed the human design system is a manifestor,
and so that makes total sense. He created something that
was entirely new. Then we've got the projector who is
very visionary. That is you profile energy type Tony. So yeah,
(03:03):
the projectors are here to see more than do though.
They're very strategic and able to see how we should
best allocate resources and create efficiency and refinement in the world.
Then we have generators, who are like the worst workforce
of humanity. Seventy percent of people are generators, but of
that subset is basically half our manifesting generators. And whereas
(03:28):
a generator is typically very linear in their pathway through
life and very relational people great in teams, really sort
of motivational people. They're very inspiring to be around. The
manifesting generator are very nonlinear. That's myself as linkagin before,
So multi passionate, very quick, able to move from task
(03:50):
to task very very quickly. But both the generator and
the manifesting generator have access to this life force energy
that they can tap into all day long. But what's
really important to to stand with human design and the
energy types is it's not, as you know, you can
burn out from doing only a few hours work if
it's not the work that's aligned for you. So it's
(04:10):
all about understanding what your decision making, strategy and authority
is so that you can make decisions that are right
for you and do aligned work and then you're not
going to burn out. And actually, as a generator or
a manifesting generator, you typically get more and more energy
as a day goes on if you're doing the right
kind of work because it sort of amplifies a.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Projector like me doesn't have as much energy stores, right,
not as much.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
Energy stores, but because you kind of reflect the energy
around you if you are spending time with a generator
or a manifesting generator, you're going to be able to
reflect their energy as well. But it's just not sustainable.
So the typical day for a projector, the ideal day
if you're in alignment, would actually look like two to
three hours of interfacing work, this kind of work. So
(04:55):
you're doing your podcasts, my radio show, yeah, your radio
show absolutely good, yeah, yeah, perfect, but only two or
three hours a day, And then the idea is that
you'd spend you still working. And this is the thing
with the projectors.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
They can look like that perhaps slacking off.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Slacking off, or resting, but a projector never stops thinking,
so they will always be continually analyzing, like using their mind,
even when they are lying down, resting all of those things.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
I try and tell my boss when I leave here.
It doesn't stop planning at home. I'm always thinking of new.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
Ideas always, never, never stop working. So the idea would
be that you would then be maybe retreating into an
office to refine what you do and work on, say
the stuff for the next day, and let people come
to you. Because the decision making, strategy and authority for
a projector is to wait for the invitation.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Yeah, I love this.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
So yes, energy types that you get given and it's
based off your birth date, and how does that work?
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Yeah, So it's the science behind human design is that
there are subatomic particles in the atmosphere the time that
you're born. Now, these are called neutrinos, and they are
able to pass through matter, so they can influence your
genetic coding and sequencing. So if you think about it,
we're all energy in the same way as epigenetics is
(06:18):
the study of how in our lifetime the things that
happen to us can influence our DNA and then pass
on to future generations. It's a similar concept and that
it's all about the energy that's in existence at the
time that you're born, which makes a lot of sense
when you think about how we're all so uniquely different
from a personality perspective and that sort of thing. In
human design, the very first thing that's generated when we
(06:39):
put those input details in, which is your place of birth,
date of birth, and inaccurate time of birth. Once we
have that information, the first thing that's produced is a
body graph, and it has nine energy centers of the
body mapped out and everybody's body graph is totally personalized.
So mine looks very different to yours.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
And how do you know what yours is compared to mine?
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Because it will generate mine it. Okay, So when I
ran your details, it produced your specific chart. And the
beautiful thing about it is it shows all the gifts
that and strengths that you have. It shows all of
this information. It shows the energy circuit of how energy
moves through your body. And one thing that I'm focusing
(07:22):
a lot on now is the relational aspect. So for example,
if I was to look at your design and your partners,
or your design and a colleagues, I can see how
your energy corresponds to.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
Each other and where there might be discrepancies.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Yeah, where there might be friction points or what or
when you come together, what are the strengths that you
create that you don't have when you're not together. Because
that's a really powerful dynamic of connection, is that when
two people come together, they create this whole new It's
almost like a composite profile and can create amazing things
(07:59):
when you're to So it's a really positive way of
looking at relationships and sort of harnessing that good stuff between.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
You so you have this energy profile and from that
you can work out how to better make decisions. Yeah,
when to rest, Yes, so you've just held me. I'm
someone that would work in more bite sized chunks. Yes,
it's opposed to working all day yep. And also how
to feel your body.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Yes, well that's right. So everyone has an optimal digestion profile,
and it's not just about food. It's about how you
process information as well. And the thing that I really
love about human design is it's you know, it's so
differentiated with all these layers, which makes your report look
really distinctly for you, Tony and mine for me. But
(08:43):
in terms of digestion, it also shows how bio individual
we are. And you know, there are so many health
and well being trends that, like, some of them are
amazing and do suit all of us lately, to whole
food diet, get lots of sleep, all exercise, all these
things that would benefit all of us, but there are
as of them that aren't just for everybody. Like your
one is direct light for digestions, so it's best for
(09:07):
you to eat in daytime hours, oh yeah, and or
close to a window where you're getting access to direct
light and you might find the same if you're working,
because you process information well when you've got light around you.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
That's interesting you say that because I have always loathed
working night shifts, and I used to work night shift
sometimes at TV and D and I hate it.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
So that would make total sense because it's just saying
that the way your mind works is better in those
daytime hours, So yours is actually in keeping with circadian rhythms.
So that's quite a popular kind of trend to think
about eating and working within the hours of the circadian rhythm.
But for other people like my daughter, for example, she's
(09:51):
hers evening light, so she's better to actually eat at night,
which like the majority of her food at night, which
totally goes against a lot.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
Of th people.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
And yet that'd be the same case. You might be
better to work at night as well.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Yes, absolutely, so she'd been the sort of person that'd
be a late night studier. Yeah, that kind of thing.
And mine is high sound, so which is super interesting.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
I chuck on your headphones while you work, absolutely wow.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
But also to have like a really good playlist going
when I'm eating as well. But I think it's to
do with relaxing the nervous systems. So for me, it's
if my body knows that it's had the queue to
listen to something that I really enjoy and have that
going in the background, it knows to activate to send
the enzymes that process food.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
And I had considered working out what the kids profiles were. Yeah,
particularly I guess for teams that are having to study
and needing a lot of energy for things like sport.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
And absolutely I think human design is amazing tool, particularly
in those later years of schooling, because they're transitioning into
who they are going to become. Right And the whole
idea with human design is it's your blueprint for personal alignment.
It's stepping into the highest expression of your authentic self.
And you know, many of us have been quite conditioned
(11:04):
to sort of be like someone that we admire or
whereas you can only ever truly be most effective when
you show up as your most authentic, highest expression of
yourself who you came here to be.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
And when you think about the conversations you have with
people on the daily, like I have this conversation all
the time because.
Speaker 4 (11:20):
People will say to me, oh, how do you get up.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
So early in the morning for radio and My response
to them is, I'm a morning person. I'm useless at night,
and I already know that about myself, and that is
essentially an element of human design, right, absolutely, let a
lot of people. If you're not in touch with that,
you might be doing all the wrong thing.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
Yeah, and you might be thinking other people can do
it at least why can't I, and just force themselves
to where it gives you. It kind of gives you
that ability to just lean into something that says, no, no,
this is how I'm meant to be, and you can
feel very confident to make your decisions accordingly as a
result of that.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
This is we need to talk with Tony Street.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
So from my profile, the projector, we know that I
can work for two to three hours at a time
and then I have to have periods of rest. I
need the sunlight while I'm eating, and I work best
in the daylight.
Speaker 4 (12:14):
Not a vampire.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Was there anything else when you looked at my profile
that you found intriguing?
Speaker 3 (12:19):
Oh? Yeah, absolutely, So you have what is called self
projected decision making authority. So that's super rare as well.
I think only two point a percent of people have
that one.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Really cool.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
It means that if you imagine your thoughts in your
mind as all wound up like in a ball of string,
and to get clarity over what you need to do
in the coming week or a decision you need to make,
you get that clarity by speaking out loud, So either
(12:52):
talking with a friend or a colleague, or the actual
best case scenario would be to do voice notes, because
what happens is when you hear your voice talking those
that ball of thoughts in your mind takes linear form
and it gives you clarity. It's been out like that.
So I don't know if you notice, do you talk
(13:13):
out things that you're going through?
Speaker 2 (13:15):
I'm sure Sam and Jason on Post Think I get
to work and I'm like, so I've got business is this?
And I kind of verbal diarrhea for the first twenty minutes,
and I think they look at me like, geez, how
did she come in here with all of that?
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Wowed?
Speaker 4 (13:27):
So I do do that. I do.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
But what you could actually do as well is do
the voice not in the car on the way.
Speaker 4 (13:33):
To work and save them from being punished.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Well, not just that, but more that, because what can
happen when you're in conversation with someone with this type
of authority, is that they're going to potentially think that
they're in a conversation with you, right, whereas really you're
just talking and so just talking at them, yeah yeah,
Whereas it might be easy for you to do it
(13:55):
in a format where you're not because it's not about
their feedback, it's you hearing yourself, so you're not looking
for the input of the other person.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
So I just want to get out yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Yeah. But it's funny you say that because I know
when I reflect on my life, whenever I've got things
where I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed, Yes, I always feel
better when I subilize it, whether it's to my mum
or to my husband, yeah, to a friend, Yeah, it
always makes me feel better.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
Yeah. So that makes total sense because that's your that's
your outlet.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Yeah, interesting, whereas others perhaps might be totally like, so.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
Half of all people have an emotional wave within them,
and I'm one of these people. It doesn't mean we're
like necessarily highly emotional or seem highly emotional, but it
means that in any given moment, you don't have truth
in that moment. You could be at a high point
in the wave or a low point in the wave,
so you need to wait for the calm midpoint of
(14:51):
clarity so you don't make an emotionally charged decision. And
that's half of people. And it's actually a really interesting point,
that one, because I think there's an element that leads
into the mental health discussion. I think so many of
us potentially understand that waves potentially having an association to
mental health, whereas it's absolutely not. It's not even really related.
(15:13):
It's more just understanding that you have kind of like
it's just a mood and it's going to happen regardless
of what's happening around you. So it's really interesting, like
if you understand that about yourself, that you are going
to have days that you wake up a little bit
lower and then other days where you wake up feeling amazing,
it's much easier to go on that journey of accepting
(15:34):
how you feel.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Oh, I agree, because quite often you just want explanations
for why something is happening.
Speaker 4 (15:40):
If you know that that's built in you, it's.
Speaker 3 (15:42):
Just part of your biological system.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
You can't give yourself a break.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
Yeah, absolutely, you can just be like it's that sort
of a day to day I'll just got a bit inwood.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
What about when it comes to exercise and movement, Yes,
so that's a.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Really interesting one. Again, a manifesting generator and a generator
going to typically have a bit more energy for that
kind of stuff, but definitely the other energy types will
love it as well. But it's just about acknowledging when
your body is telling you to rest. So it's been
very intuitive. And if you've got the human design, as
(16:17):
I mentioned the nine energy centers, if you've got the
ego center defined, that generally means you've got quite strong
willpower and a bit more of a capacity to persevere
and push through. So understanding that about yourself, you can
kind of get tuned into whether you do or don't
have that capacity and whether to understand if you're being
a little bit procrastinating or actually do need rest.
Speaker 4 (16:39):
Wow, this is so fascinating.
Speaker 5 (16:41):
What about you talk touched on the relationships with perhaps
a partner, what about your other interactions you know, because
I'm guessing this could help in the workplace of it's
interacting with a boss or a colleague.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
Yeah, absolutely well, and this is where human design has
been so effective in terms of leadership excellence and team dynamics.
Because even as a leader, if you understand your profile type,
like for example, if you were in a role as
a sort of CEO of an organization or something like that,
as a projector, your leadership style would be that you
would do the kind of two to three hours chatting
(17:15):
away to people and talking about the strategic direction of
the week or what have you. But then the idea
would be that you would be in your office and
let your people come to you versus the micromanaging style.
So understanding the energy types is really useful like that,
and it's also invites compassion I think into the workplace, like, ah,
I see you for who you are. You're not being difficult,
(17:37):
that is your makeup or that is just how you
express yourself. And then yeah, from a connection perspective, I
think it's just so beautiful how we're choicelessly drawn to
the people that kind of create the chemistry in our chart.
So if you've got one gift that's associated with one
energy center and someone in your team has a gift
(17:57):
and another energy center, when they meet, it's like it's
sort of like a chemistry explosion, and it's like all
these great ideas we'll be able to formulate and all
that kind of thing. So it gives you a blueprint
to kind of recognize where the opportunities are.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Especially if you were forming a team as well. For example,
in my line of work, when you're creating a radio show,
like I take the three of us, Yes, Jason, Zam,
Jason and we've worked out as a generator and Sam
and I are both projectors.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
Now is that ideal?
Speaker 3 (18:27):
No? I think that's perfect because you've got that access
to lifeful synergy all day long through the generator profile,
which is also going to help the other two, and
you've got the visionary aspect of So it's actually a
really nice balance. If you had a bigger team, you
might be looking to have say one manifesto, because they're
going to come in with all the new ideas and
(18:49):
creative side. It would be great to have a projector
in the team because they're going to be strategic and
be thinking ahead and working out who should work best together.
But you also need those generators and manifesting generators. And
a generator is that person that's going to be very
niche and they master their craft, so that are the
people that are going to specialize in what they do
(19:10):
or as a manifesting generator. We like, this is a
perfect day for me because I'm here with you doing
this podcast, which i don't do every other day, and
then I've got a meeting shortly after in the city,
and then I'll be going back to do something different
in the afternoon. It's all varied, Yeah, we s variation,
being able to put on a different sort of hat
within business, so on more entrepreneurial because you get to
(19:31):
do your social media, you're doing your text, you're doing
all of it. You know, like something different all the time.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
Could you dictate your career path once you know what
you are best at, you help you make decisions and.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
Their absolutely and back to what we were talking about
before with the teens understanding their design. So because you're
in that transition point, because what human design does is
it shows you your life purpose, which is an essence
that you carry wherever you goes.
Speaker 4 (19:58):
So your life, what do you mean by that?
Speaker 3 (20:00):
So it's not just about how you show up in
a work capacity. It's not just what work you're here
to do. It's sort of the essence of personality, of
skill set that is supposed to show up in all
aspects of your life. Okay, but your life purpose in
human Design is made up for distinct gifts, and one
of those gifts is your leading gift. So I think
(20:20):
it just gives you this really clear understanding of where
your talents are and your innate talents, because I think
you know in the workplace, if you've gone and studied,
you've done your degree, you've you've got all this learned education, right,
But money can't buy those innate skills that are within you.
So it's really tapping into that resource of what you
(20:44):
can do that are the people just simply no matter
how much they trained, they just may not be able
to reach that level of innate skill you're listening to.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
We need to talk with Tony Street.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
Okay, So let's you just mind.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Example, absolutely what Let's hope it aligns with what I'm
doing in my life. But there's no shame in adjusting
your life to better suit what you should be doing.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Right, Oh no, absolutely, And I think the thing with
human design is if you follow the decision makings. They
say that there are two most important things to take
away from it, and that's your energy type. If you
understand your energy type, and you understand your decision making strategy,
then you're just going to make correct decisions every day,
which will ultimately mean the rest of your life flows
(21:30):
into alignments.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
And I feel like lots of people will have periods
in their life where they I remember saying to my mom,
can you just make this decision for me?
Speaker 4 (21:38):
You know, decision making is quite hard sometimes.
Speaker 3 (21:40):
Yeah, no, totally it is. But if you understand, if
you have confidence in yours and how you get clarity,
then it makes it much easier to lean into that.
Like I had advumped into a client a couple of
days ago out walking and she said to me, you're nice.
She did her human design with me last year, and
she said, I've been saying to people the best thing
I did in twenty twenty four was get human design done,
(22:01):
because now when I make decisions, I make them confidently
because I know that that is my way of doing it,
that's unique to me, and it just gives me confidence
to lean into know that is the right decision versus
considering what would my mind say?
Speaker 4 (22:15):
Yes, just some direction, Yeah, absolutely, I love this idea
for me. Yeah, I really do.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
I think anything that's going to help you do what
you meant to be doing and how you meant to.
Speaker 4 (22:25):
Be doing it. Yeah, it is such a positive yeah,
so on that.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
Okay, So your life purpose this is how it reads.
So you are here to have an expensive mind of
unlimited capacity. This is used firstly for your own processes,
but then extended also to other people and projects around you.
It is an innate gift of making sense of complex
concepts and distilling the knowledge into a format that others
(22:49):
can easily understand. When you seek out more research and wisdom,
you are accessing your higher consciousness in a way that
can be deeply fulfilling.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Okay, so how would you say that in lay terms?
I mean, I get it.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
I would just say that you are able to take
things that maybe seem quite intellectual and serious and then
kind of distill is the word that they used in
human design, but it's simplifies actually, So you can take
something that's complex simplify into terms that everybody is going
to find relatable.
Speaker 4 (23:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
So, which is a great, beautiful skill. And then your
leading gift as part of that life purpose is the
gift of concluding. So it says you like to leave
no stone unturned and you'll go one step further and
examine those stones to get through to the answer and
the conclusion. This could be wrapping up projects, conversations, or theories.
Every time you use your gift of completion, you are
(23:42):
creating a great foundation for the next thing to begin.
So you feel like you do that, you need to
almost have made sense of a situation before you move.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
On one hundred percent, like I am bordering on, like
I will be obsessed with things until I've got it perfect.
Speaker 4 (23:57):
And no, now I can go yes, I do that, yeah, yeah,
within your design.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
I think, for example, I've got seventeen in mine. So
when I do a report with people, we generally focus
on the top four, but then we can go on
to do subsequent sessions that really dive into what all
of the great gifts are they can channel. But if
you were a year twelve or thirteen student, you might
look at these gifts and think, okay, right, like I
know those resonate, but yeah, how could these show up?
(24:25):
And the kind of studies that I'm going to be
doing and what kind of career do I want to
have where leaning into this these gifts will be.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
My greatest It's what lights you fire isn't it.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
Yeah. Absolutely, And then I was just going to have
a quick look at what your strongest sense is, outer vision.
So this is all about visual stimulation, aesthetics, and making
your life beautiful. Oh so it's sort of suggesting that
when you like, I know, you're always wearing like you
love to wear your beautiful clothes and like creative prints
(24:55):
and things. It's all that sort of thing. And when
you bring beauty into your life, it actually brings beauty
to the lives of others as well, Like you kind
of light up other people's lives by doing that. It's
a nice thing to say, and I'm sure in your
home it probably reflects that too.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
Yeah, I'm really into starting my home. Yeah, I like
it all to look pretty, yes, yea, lu candles, flowers.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
Yes, all that stuff. And I just want to touch
on back to the body graph and the energy centers,
because you have two completely open energy centers in your design,
which means that you have no way of filtering the
energy that comes in and so in relation, the first
one to mention is your root center, which is where
(25:37):
we feel drive, momentum, but it's also where we feel
stress and pressure. So what it could look like is
that you can almost directly take on the stress of
another person. So I don't know if that resonates, But
you've just explained me in a nutshell, just explained your life.
Speaker 4 (25:57):
How often my husband says to me, just don't take
that all. I've got no choice. I will say I'm
feeling what I'm.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
Feeling, and you'll be feeling it as if it's your Yes. Yes,
But a really good way to look at it would
be to clock how you feel in your own stress
levels before you enter a space with the other people,
and that way you'll get a sense for is this
stress actually mine or am I just feeling it for
another person? And if you're feeling it for another person,
(26:25):
that sort of the ability for you to be empathetic potentially,
but also take step back and go that's not mine
to manage.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
Yeah, it's really interesting you say that because I let's
say I'm looking at the Herald and there will be
an article about something really bad, yes, a hurt child
or and I will read it and.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
It will affect me.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
And I know everyone gets affected, but it really affects
me to the point where I will cry. Like sitting
with the boys at radio and I know that about myself.
I can't read it if I'm not prepared to feel it.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Yes, I totally under because that is actually related to
your emotional soul aplexus center, which is also totally open.
And that is exactly the scenario. It'll mean that you
will feel that experience as if it's happening to you,
if it was your child, your family.
Speaker 4 (27:14):
And so it's really hard to park.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
And it's irrational because you're like, it's a story, I
should be able to just move on from it, but
I struggle to let it go.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
It's because there's no natural filter and then the center
for you. So yeah, I would just choose very carefully
what you're going to absorb and take on, and just
the timing of it, like if you know you need
to read some article or something, maybe don't do it
before you've got to do a chirpy podcast if you
know it's exactly fitting story.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
And I think that would be interesting for lots of
people to realize because we are in a world now
of consuming so much news and so much content.
Speaker 4 (27:50):
Yes, that you do have to be careful.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
If you can't park content, it could sit with you
potentially without you even knowing realizing that.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
And I think it's just understanding. It's just giving you
the understanding the acceptance of how we are as individuals
so that we can make sense of those feelings when
they come up. So now when that happens, you'll be like, Okay,
get that for me. Because other people have a filtering system,
I don't.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
So as a filtering system, what that would look like.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
Is it just means because within every energy center there's numbers,
and those numbers are specific gifts. For example, like the
one I mentioned before about your leading gift is a
concluding so they each correspond to a number, And if
you have highlighted numbers in that center, it means you've
got a gift of an emotional kind and it just
gives you a filter to process the way you receive information.
(28:40):
If you have the whole center colored in. In human design,
you have some centers that are colored in that are
called defined centers. That's where you have a more fixed
sense of personality in that space. If they're open centers
and left right, it means that you're open to conditioning
in that area. So me, for example, I've got the
emotional solar plexus defined colored in which means that I
(29:05):
will be able to read something and feel empathetic about it,
but I'm not going to have that same experience as you.
I'm going to be able to separate it.
Speaker 4 (29:13):
You won't be yeiling depressed for the next time.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
No, I won't feel it as if it's my own story.
I'm just going to feel it as if, well, that's
a really sad story for somebody else.
Speaker 4 (29:22):
Wow, it's so fascinating, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
Yeah, layers and layers of detail. And I've been so fortunate.
As you know, this is a very new concept and
it does encourage people to lead very much into mind, body,
soul thinking, which is quite different to tools like Myers Briggs.
But I like to think of that as a next
generation of all that kind of work, and because there
are so many different layers to it, the differentiation really
(29:46):
does tell a very personal story and like some of
the more kind of categorizing tools.
Speaker 4 (29:51):
Yes, but I have.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
Been introduced to Rod Jury, who is the global tech
power house, and he is a huge advocate of human
design and has been so supportive and is introducing me
to lots of different people to get human design out
there into different networks and introduced to all sorts of
different people.
Speaker 4 (30:13):
Is this something you think corporation should be adopting.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
Yeah, absolutely, because if you think about how wellbeing policies
are now a very important part of the workplace, it's
almost like human design is a well being a personalized
wellbeing policy per person. So it's saying we see you
as an individual we you know, it really speaks to
inclusiveness and diversity, saying we see that you are uniquely you,
(30:41):
authentically you, and we want to celebrate your gifts and
bring everyone up in the organization according to who they've
come here to be.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
Basically, well, I think it's fantastic and everything that you
have said to me absolutely genuinely runs true, and I
can't wait to look through my profile in a bit
more detail.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
North Wellbeing dot Co and anyone can go and work.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Out what their profile is and work with you on
ways to best based on those principles.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
Basically, just live in the highest expression of yourself and
just to give you the tools to navigate life so
that you feel like you can confidently make the decisions
that are aligned for you and you know, avoid burnout
and just live a far more streamlined kind of purposeful life.

Tony Street.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Hello, welcome to we need to talk. It's lovely to
have you with us. Have you ever asked yourself? Am
I doing what I'm meant to be doing in this world?
Is what I'm doing and how I'm living my life
right for me? And am I reaching my maximum potential?
Human design is attracting success overseas for its ability to
transform people's lives, both personally and professionally, and an increasing
(00:28):
number of corporates, retreats and individuals here in New Zealand
are now exploring human design too. What it is is
a mix of science, psychology, and various Eastern philosophies. It's
a modern system to bring meaning to your life. So
the profiling techniques help you discover your energy type, your
profile type, decision making strategies, your life purpose, you're leading gifts,
(00:51):
your strengths, your leading sense, your digestion profile, and environmental preferences,
all of which I'm quite intrigued to hear, Charlotte Hill
is the fact of key we practice true North well being.
They aim to bring balance, purpose and clarity to your
day using a mix of these individual profiling mind, body,
soul analysis. Her background is in law, media planning, and
(01:13):
high performance athlete management. She studied with the New York
Institute of Integrative Nutrition, the Los Angeles based Mind architect
and my Human Design, which is quite a background, Charlotte,
But why did you get into this field in the
first place.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Well, as you can see, it's very nonlinear my background.
I guess I've always had a passion for wellbeing, but
I had studied law, and I then got into advertising,
and I think in my early twenties I started to
get this swell sense that I had a humanitarian aspect
to me. I'm a life path nine in numerology, which
(01:48):
is very much the humanitarian. But my journey kind of
still kept me on the course of various different things.
As a manifesting generator, you follow your passions, the things
that lights you up, but it's a very sort of
multi pay lifestyle and you just go with the opportunities
as they arise. But eventually I got to the point
where I was like, no, absolutely, I need to pursue
this passion for wellbeing. And that's when I did the
(02:10):
studies that I've done and stumbled across my human design
as well.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
So how do you find out what your energy profile
is and why is it important?
Speaker 4 (02:19):
Why do we need to know it?
Speaker 3 (02:20):
The reason your energy profile is so important is for
managing burnout. So there are five main energy types. We've
got the manifesto pure manifesto, which is the innovator. They
are the people that are here to bring new things
into form. So if you've got a team in a
workplace and you're doing product development, you won't have a
manifesto on board, because are the people that are going
(02:42):
to just create something that hasn't existed previously. The guy
that actually developed the human design system is a manifestor,
and so that makes total sense. He created something that
was entirely new. Then we've got the projector who is
very visionary. That is you profile energy type Tony. So yeah,
(03:03):
the projectors are here to see more than do though.
They're very strategic and able to see how we should
best allocate resources and create efficiency and refinement in the world.
Then we have generators, who are like the worst workforce
of humanity. Seventy percent of people are generators, but of
that subset is basically half our manifesting generators. And whereas
(03:28):
a generator is typically very linear in their pathway through
life and very relational people great in teams, really sort
of motivational people. They're very inspiring to be around. The
manifesting generator are very nonlinear. That's myself as linkagin before,
So multi passionate, very quick, able to move from task
(03:50):
to task very very quickly. But both the generator and
the manifesting generator have access to this life force energy
that they can tap into all day long. But what's
really important to to stand with human design and the
energy types is it's not, as you know, you can
burn out from doing only a few hours work if
it's not the work that's aligned for you. So it's
(04:10):
all about understanding what your decision making, strategy and authority
is so that you can make decisions that are right
for you and do aligned work and then you're not
going to burn out. And actually, as a generator or
a manifesting generator, you typically get more and more energy
as a day goes on if you're doing the right
kind of work because it sort of amplifies a.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Projector like me doesn't have as much energy stores, right,
not as much.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
Energy stores, but because you kind of reflect the energy
around you if you are spending time with a generator
or a manifesting generator, you're going to be able to
reflect their energy as well. But it's just not sustainable.
So the typical day for a projector, the ideal day
if you're in alignment, would actually look like two to
three hours of interfacing work, this kind of work. So
(04:55):
you're doing your podcasts, my radio show, yeah, your radio
show absolutely good, yeah, yeah, perfect, but only two or
three hours a day, And then the idea is that
you'd spend you still working. And this is the thing
with the projectors.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
They can look like that perhaps slacking off.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Slacking off, or resting, but a projector never stops thinking,
so they will always be continually analyzing, like using their mind,
even when they are lying down, resting all of those things.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
I try and tell my boss when I leave here.
It doesn't stop planning at home. I'm always thinking of new.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
Ideas always, never, never stop working. So the idea would
be that you would then be maybe retreating into an
office to refine what you do and work on, say
the stuff for the next day, and let people come
to you. Because the decision making, strategy and authority for
a projector is to wait for the invitation.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Yeah, I love this.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
So yes, energy types that you get given and it's
based off your birth date, and how does that work?
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Yeah, So it's the science behind human design is that
there are subatomic particles in the atmosphere the time that
you're born. Now, these are called neutrinos, and they are
able to pass through matter, so they can influence your
genetic coding and sequencing. So if you think about it,
we're all energy in the same way as epigenetics is
(06:18):
the study of how in our lifetime the things that
happen to us can influence our DNA and then pass
on to future generations. It's a similar concept and that
it's all about the energy that's in existence at the
time that you're born, which makes a lot of sense
when you think about how we're all so uniquely different
from a personality perspective and that sort of thing. In
human design, the very first thing that's generated when we
(06:39):
put those input details in, which is your place of birth,
date of birth, and inaccurate time of birth. Once we
have that information, the first thing that's produced is a
body graph, and it has nine energy centers of the
body mapped out and everybody's body graph is totally personalized.
So mine looks very different to yours.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
And how do you know what yours is compared to mine?
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Because it will generate mine it. Okay, So when I
ran your details, it produced your specific chart. And the
beautiful thing about it is it shows all the gifts
that and strengths that you have. It shows all of
this information. It shows the energy circuit of how energy
moves through your body. And one thing that I'm focusing
(07:22):
a lot on now is the relational aspect. So for example,
if I was to look at your design and your partners,
or your design and a colleagues, I can see how
your energy corresponds to.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
Each other and where there might be discrepancies.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Yeah, where there might be friction points or what or
when you come together, what are the strengths that you
create that you don't have when you're not together. Because
that's a really powerful dynamic of connection, is that when
two people come together, they create this whole new It's
almost like a composite profile and can create amazing things
(07:59):
when you're to So it's a really positive way of
looking at relationships and sort of harnessing that good stuff between.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
You so you have this energy profile and from that
you can work out how to better make decisions. Yeah,
when to rest, Yes, so you've just held me. I'm
someone that would work in more bite sized chunks. Yes,
it's opposed to working all day yep. And also how
to feel your body.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Yes, well that's right. So everyone has an optimal digestion profile,
and it's not just about food. It's about how you
process information as well. And the thing that I really
love about human design is it's you know, it's so
differentiated with all these layers, which makes your report look
really distinctly for you, Tony and mine for me. But
(08:43):
in terms of digestion, it also shows how bio individual
we are. And you know, there are so many health
and well being trends that, like, some of them are
amazing and do suit all of us lately, to whole
food diet, get lots of sleep, all exercise, all these
things that would benefit all of us, but there are
as of them that aren't just for everybody. Like your
one is direct light for digestions, so it's best for
(09:07):
you to eat in daytime hours, oh yeah, and or
close to a window where you're getting access to direct
light and you might find the same if you're working,
because you process information well when you've got light around you.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
That's interesting you say that because I have always loathed
working night shifts, and I used to work night shift
sometimes at TV and D and I hate it.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
So that would make total sense because it's just saying
that the way your mind works is better in those
daytime hours, So yours is actually in keeping with circadian rhythms.
So that's quite a popular kind of trend to think
about eating and working within the hours of the circadian rhythm.
But for other people like my daughter, for example, she's
(09:51):
hers evening light, so she's better to actually eat at night,
which like the majority of her food at night, which
totally goes against a lot.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
Of th people.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
And yet that'd be the same case. You might be
better to work at night as well.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Yes, absolutely, so she'd been the sort of person that'd
be a late night studier. Yeah, that kind of thing.
And mine is high sound, so which is super interesting.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
I chuck on your headphones while you work, absolutely wow.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
But also to have like a really good playlist going
when I'm eating as well. But I think it's to
do with relaxing the nervous systems. So for me, it's
if my body knows that it's had the queue to
listen to something that I really enjoy and have that
going in the background, it knows to activate to send
the enzymes that process food.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
And I had considered working out what the kids profiles were. Yeah,
particularly I guess for teams that are having to study
and needing a lot of energy for things like sport.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
And absolutely I think human design is amazing tool, particularly
in those later years of schooling, because they're transitioning into
who they are going to become. Right And the whole
idea with human design is it's your blueprint for personal alignment.
It's stepping into the highest expression of your authentic self.
And you know, many of us have been quite conditioned
(11:04):
to sort of be like someone that we admire or
whereas you can only ever truly be most effective when
you show up as your most authentic, highest expression of
yourself who you came here to be.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
And when you think about the conversations you have with
people on the daily, like I have this conversation all
the time because.
Speaker 4 (11:20):
People will say to me, oh, how do you get up.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
So early in the morning for radio and My response
to them is, I'm a morning person. I'm useless at night,
and I already know that about myself, and that is
essentially an element of human design, right, absolutely, let a
lot of people. If you're not in touch with that,
you might be doing all the wrong thing.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
Yeah, and you might be thinking other people can do
it at least why can't I, and just force themselves
to where it gives you. It kind of gives you
that ability to just lean into something that says, no, no,
this is how I'm meant to be, and you can
feel very confident to make your decisions accordingly as a
result of that.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
This is we need to talk with Tony Street.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
So from my profile, the projector, we know that I
can work for two to three hours at a time
and then I have to have periods of rest. I
need the sunlight while I'm eating, and I work best
in the daylight.
Speaker 4 (12:14):
Not a vampire.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Was there anything else when you looked at my profile
that you found intriguing?
Speaker 3 (12:19):
Oh? Yeah, absolutely, So you have what is called self
projected decision making authority. So that's super rare as well.
I think only two point a percent of people have
that one.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Really cool.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
It means that if you imagine your thoughts in your
mind as all wound up like in a ball of string,
and to get clarity over what you need to do
in the coming week or a decision you need to make,
you get that clarity by speaking out loud, So either
(12:52):
talking with a friend or a colleague, or the actual
best case scenario would be to do voice notes, because
what happens is when you hear your voice talking those
that ball of thoughts in your mind takes linear form
and it gives you clarity. It's been out like that.
So I don't know if you notice, do you talk
(13:13):
out things that you're going through?
Speaker 2 (13:15):
I'm sure Sam and Jason on Post Think I get
to work and I'm like, so I've got business is this?
And I kind of verbal diarrhea for the first twenty minutes,
and I think they look at me like, geez, how
did she come in here with all of that?
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Wowed?
Speaker 4 (13:27):
So I do do that. I do.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
But what you could actually do as well is do
the voice not in the car on the way.
Speaker 4 (13:33):
To work and save them from being punished.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Well, not just that, but more that, because what can
happen when you're in conversation with someone with this type
of authority, is that they're going to potentially think that
they're in a conversation with you, right, whereas really you're
just talking and so just talking at them, yeah yeah,
Whereas it might be easy for you to do it
(13:55):
in a format where you're not because it's not about
their feedback, it's you hearing yourself, so you're not looking
for the input of the other person.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
So I just want to get out yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Yeah. But it's funny you say that because I know
when I reflect on my life, whenever I've got things
where I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed, Yes, I always feel
better when I subilize it, whether it's to my mum
or to my husband, yeah, to a friend, Yeah, it
always makes me feel better.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
Yeah. So that makes total sense because that's your that's
your outlet.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Yeah, interesting, whereas others perhaps might be totally like, so.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
Half of all people have an emotional wave within them,
and I'm one of these people. It doesn't mean we're
like necessarily highly emotional or seem highly emotional, but it
means that in any given moment, you don't have truth
in that moment. You could be at a high point
in the wave or a low point in the wave,
so you need to wait for the calm midpoint of
(14:51):
clarity so you don't make an emotionally charged decision. And
that's half of people. And it's actually a really interesting point,
that one, because I think there's an element that leads
into the mental health discussion. I think so many of
us potentially understand that waves potentially having an association to
mental health, whereas it's absolutely not. It's not even really related.
(15:13):
It's more just understanding that you have kind of like
it's just a mood and it's going to happen regardless
of what's happening around you. So it's really interesting, like
if you understand that about yourself, that you are going
to have days that you wake up a little bit
lower and then other days where you wake up feeling amazing,
it's much easier to go on that journey of accepting
(15:34):
how you feel.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Oh, I agree, because quite often you just want explanations
for why something is happening.
Speaker 4 (15:40):
If you know that that's built in you, it's.
Speaker 3 (15:42):
Just part of your biological system.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
You can't give yourself a break.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
Yeah, absolutely, you can just be like it's that sort
of a day to day I'll just got a bit inwood.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
What about when it comes to exercise and movement, Yes,
so that's a.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Really interesting one. Again, a manifesting generator and a generator
going to typically have a bit more energy for that
kind of stuff, but definitely the other energy types will
love it as well. But it's just about acknowledging when
your body is telling you to rest. So it's been
very intuitive. And if you've got the human design, as
(16:17):
I mentioned the nine energy centers, if you've got the
ego center defined, that generally means you've got quite strong
willpower and a bit more of a capacity to persevere
and push through. So understanding that about yourself, you can
kind of get tuned into whether you do or don't
have that capacity and whether to understand if you're being
a little bit procrastinating or actually do need rest.
Speaker 4 (16:39):
Wow, this is so fascinating.
Speaker 5 (16:41):
What about you talk touched on the relationships with perhaps
a partner, what about your other interactions you know, because
I'm guessing this could help in the workplace of it's
interacting with a boss or a colleague.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
Yeah, absolutely well, and this is where human design has
been so effective in terms of leadership excellence and team dynamics.
Because even as a leader, if you understand your profile type,
like for example, if you were in a role as
a sort of CEO of an organization or something like that,
as a projector, your leadership style would be that you
would do the kind of two to three hours chatting
(17:15):
away to people and talking about the strategic direction of
the week or what have you. But then the idea
would be that you would be in your office and
let your people come to you versus the micromanaging style.
So understanding the energy types is really useful like that,
and it's also invites compassion I think into the workplace, like, ah,
I see you for who you are. You're not being difficult,
(17:37):
that is your makeup or that is just how you
express yourself. And then yeah, from a connection perspective, I
think it's just so beautiful how we're choicelessly drawn to
the people that kind of create the chemistry in our chart.
So if you've got one gift that's associated with one
energy center and someone in your team has a gift
(17:57):
and another energy center, when they meet, it's like it's
sort of like a chemistry explosion, and it's like all
these great ideas we'll be able to formulate and all
that kind of thing. So it gives you a blueprint
to kind of recognize where the opportunities are.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Especially if you were forming a team as well. For example,
in my line of work, when you're creating a radio show,
like I take the three of us, Yes, Jason, Zam,
Jason and we've worked out as a generator and Sam
and I are both projectors.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
Now is that ideal?
Speaker 3 (18:27):
No? I think that's perfect because you've got that access
to lifeful synergy all day long through the generator profile,
which is also going to help the other two, and
you've got the visionary aspect of So it's actually a
really nice balance. If you had a bigger team, you
might be looking to have say one manifesto, because they're
going to come in with all the new ideas and
(18:49):
creative side. It would be great to have a projector
in the team because they're going to be strategic and
be thinking ahead and working out who should work best together.
But you also need those generators and manifesting generators. And
a generator is that person that's going to be very
niche and they master their craft, so that are the
people that are going to specialize in what they do
(19:10):
or as a manifesting generator. We like, this is a
perfect day for me because I'm here with you doing
this podcast, which i don't do every other day, and
then I've got a meeting shortly after in the city,
and then I'll be going back to do something different
in the afternoon. It's all varied, Yeah, we s variation,
being able to put on a different sort of hat
within business, so on more entrepreneurial because you get to
(19:31):
do your social media, you're doing your text, you're doing
all of it. You know, like something different all the time.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
Could you dictate your career path once you know what
you are best at, you help you make decisions and.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
Their absolutely and back to what we were talking about
before with the teens understanding their design. So because you're
in that transition point, because what human design does is
it shows you your life purpose, which is an essence
that you carry wherever you goes.
Speaker 4 (19:58):
So your life, what do you mean by that?
Speaker 3 (20:00):
So it's not just about how you show up in
a work capacity. It's not just what work you're here
to do. It's sort of the essence of personality, of
skill set that is supposed to show up in all
aspects of your life. Okay, but your life purpose in
human Design is made up for distinct gifts, and one
of those gifts is your leading gift. So I think
(20:20):
it just gives you this really clear understanding of where
your talents are and your innate talents, because I think
you know in the workplace, if you've gone and studied,
you've done your degree, you've you've got all this learned education, right,
But money can't buy those innate skills that are within you.
So it's really tapping into that resource of what you
(20:44):
can do that are the people just simply no matter
how much they trained, they just may not be able
to reach that level of innate skill you're listening to.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
We need to talk with Tony Street.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
Okay, So let's you just mind.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Example, absolutely what Let's hope it aligns with what I'm
doing in my life. But there's no shame in adjusting
your life to better suit what you should be doing.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Right, Oh no, absolutely, And I think the thing with
human design is if you follow the decision makings. They
say that there are two most important things to take
away from it, and that's your energy type. If you
understand your energy type, and you understand your decision making strategy,
then you're just going to make correct decisions every day,
which will ultimately mean the rest of your life flows
(21:30):
into alignments.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
And I feel like lots of people will have periods
in their life where they I remember saying to my mom,
can you just make this decision for me?
Speaker 4 (21:38):
You know, decision making is quite hard sometimes.
Speaker 3 (21:40):
Yeah, no, totally it is. But if you understand, if
you have confidence in yours and how you get clarity,
then it makes it much easier to lean into that.
Like I had advumped into a client a couple of
days ago out walking and she said to me, you're nice.
She did her human design with me last year, and
she said, I've been saying to people the best thing
I did in twenty twenty four was get human design done,
(22:01):
because now when I make decisions, I make them confidently
because I know that that is my way of doing it,
that's unique to me, and it just gives me confidence
to lean into know that is the right decision versus
considering what would my mind say?
Speaker 4 (22:15):
Yes, just some direction, Yeah, absolutely, I love this idea
for me. Yeah, I really do.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
I think anything that's going to help you do what
you meant to be doing and how you meant to.
Speaker 4 (22:25):
Be doing it. Yeah, it is such a positive yeah,
so on that.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
Okay, So your life purpose this is how it reads.
So you are here to have an expensive mind of
unlimited capacity. This is used firstly for your own processes,
but then extended also to other people and projects around you.
It is an innate gift of making sense of complex
concepts and distilling the knowledge into a format that others
(22:49):
can easily understand. When you seek out more research and wisdom,
you are accessing your higher consciousness in a way that
can be deeply fulfilling.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Okay, so how would you say that in lay terms?
I mean, I get it.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
I would just say that you are able to take
things that maybe seem quite intellectual and serious and then
kind of distill is the word that they used in
human design, but it's simplifies actually, So you can take
something that's complex simplify into terms that everybody is going
to find relatable.
Speaker 4 (23:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
So, which is a great, beautiful skill. And then your
leading gift as part of that life purpose is the
gift of concluding. So it says you like to leave
no stone unturned and you'll go one step further and
examine those stones to get through to the answer and
the conclusion. This could be wrapping up projects, conversations, or theories.
Every time you use your gift of completion, you are
(23:42):
creating a great foundation for the next thing to begin.
So you feel like you do that, you need to
almost have made sense of a situation before you move.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
On one hundred percent, like I am bordering on, like
I will be obsessed with things until I've got it perfect.
Speaker 4 (23:57):
And no, now I can go yes, I do that, yeah, yeah,
within your design.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
I think, for example, I've got seventeen in mine. So
when I do a report with people, we generally focus
on the top four, but then we can go on
to do subsequent sessions that really dive into what all
of the great gifts are they can channel. But if
you were a year twelve or thirteen student, you might
look at these gifts and think, okay, right, like I
know those resonate, but yeah, how could these show up?
(24:25):
And the kind of studies that I'm going to be
doing and what kind of career do I want to
have where leaning into this these gifts will be.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
My greatest It's what lights you fire isn't it.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
Yeah. Absolutely, And then I was just going to have
a quick look at what your strongest sense is, outer vision.
So this is all about visual stimulation, aesthetics, and making
your life beautiful. Oh so it's sort of suggesting that
when you like, I know, you're always wearing like you
love to wear your beautiful clothes and like creative prints
(24:55):
and things. It's all that sort of thing. And when
you bring beauty into your life, it actually brings beauty
to the lives of others as well, Like you kind
of light up other people's lives by doing that. It's
a nice thing to say, and I'm sure in your
home it probably reflects that too.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
Yeah, I'm really into starting my home. Yeah, I like
it all to look pretty, yes, yea, lu candles, flowers.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
Yes, all that stuff. And I just want to touch
on back to the body graph and the energy centers,
because you have two completely open energy centers in your design,
which means that you have no way of filtering the
energy that comes in and so in relation, the first
one to mention is your root center, which is where
(25:37):
we feel drive, momentum, but it's also where we feel
stress and pressure. So what it could look like is
that you can almost directly take on the stress of
another person. So I don't know if that resonates, But
you've just explained me in a nutshell, just explained your life.
Speaker 4 (25:57):
How often my husband says to me, just don't take
that all. I've got no choice. I will say I'm
feeling what I'm.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
Feeling, and you'll be feeling it as if it's your Yes. Yes,
But a really good way to look at it would
be to clock how you feel in your own stress
levels before you enter a space with the other people,
and that way you'll get a sense for is this
stress actually mine or am I just feeling it for
another person? And if you're feeling it for another person,
(26:25):
that sort of the ability for you to be empathetic potentially,
but also take step back and go that's not mine
to manage.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
Yeah, it's really interesting you say that because I let's
say I'm looking at the Herald and there will be
an article about something really bad, yes, a hurt child
or and I will read it and.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
It will affect me.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
And I know everyone gets affected, but it really affects
me to the point where I will cry. Like sitting
with the boys at radio and I know that about myself.
I can't read it if I'm not prepared to feel it.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Yes, I totally under because that is actually related to
your emotional soul aplexus center, which is also totally open.
And that is exactly the scenario. It'll mean that you
will feel that experience as if it's happening to you,
if it was your child, your family.
Speaker 4 (27:14):
And so it's really hard to park.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
And it's irrational because you're like, it's a story, I
should be able to just move on from it, but
I struggle to let it go.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
It's because there's no natural filter and then the center
for you. So yeah, I would just choose very carefully
what you're going to absorb and take on, and just
the timing of it, like if you know you need
to read some article or something, maybe don't do it
before you've got to do a chirpy podcast if you
know it's exactly fitting story.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
And I think that would be interesting for lots of
people to realize because we are in a world now
of consuming so much news and so much content.
Speaker 4 (27:50):
Yes, that you do have to be careful.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
If you can't park content, it could sit with you
potentially without you even knowing realizing that.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
And I think it's just understanding. It's just giving you
the understanding the acceptance of how we are as individuals
so that we can make sense of those feelings when
they come up. So now when that happens, you'll be like, Okay,
get that for me. Because other people have a filtering system,
I don't.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
So as a filtering system, what that would look like.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
Is it just means because within every energy center there's numbers,
and those numbers are specific gifts. For example, like the
one I mentioned before about your leading gift is a
concluding so they each correspond to a number, And if
you have highlighted numbers in that center, it means you've
got a gift of an emotional kind and it just
gives you a filter to process the way you receive information.
(28:40):
If you have the whole center colored in. In human design,
you have some centers that are colored in that are
called defined centers. That's where you have a more fixed
sense of personality in that space. If they're open centers
and left right, it means that you're open to conditioning
in that area. So me, for example, I've got the
emotional solar plexus defined colored in which means that I
(29:05):
will be able to read something and feel empathetic about it,
but I'm not going to have that same experience as you.
I'm going to be able to separate it.
Speaker 4 (29:13):
You won't be yeiling depressed for the next time.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
No, I won't feel it as if it's my own story.
I'm just going to feel it as if, well, that's
a really sad story for somebody else.
Speaker 4 (29:22):
Wow, it's so fascinating, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
Yeah, layers and layers of detail. And I've been so fortunate.
As you know, this is a very new concept and
it does encourage people to lead very much into mind, body,
soul thinking, which is quite different to tools like Myers Briggs.
But I like to think of that as a next
generation of all that kind of work, and because there
are so many different layers to it, the differentiation really
(29:46):
does tell a very personal story and like some of
the more kind of categorizing tools.
Speaker 4 (29:51):
Yes, but I have.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
Been introduced to Rod Jury, who is the global tech
power house, and he is a huge advocate of human
design and has been so supportive and is introducing me
to lots of different people to get human design out
there into different networks and introduced to all sorts of
different people.
Speaker 4 (30:13):
Is this something you think corporation should be adopting.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
Yeah, absolutely, because if you think about how wellbeing policies
are now a very important part of the workplace, it's
almost like human design is a well being a personalized
wellbeing policy per person. So it's saying we see you
as an individual we you know, it really speaks to
inclusiveness and diversity, saying we see that you are uniquely you,
(30:41):
authentically you, and we want to celebrate your gifts and
bring everyone up in the organization according to who they've
come here to be.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
Basically, well, I think it's fantastic and everything that you
have said to me absolutely genuinely runs true, and I
can't wait to look through my profile in a bit
more detail.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
North Wellbeing dot Co and anyone can go and work.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Out what their profile is and work with you on
ways to best based on those principles.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
Basically, just live in the highest expression of yourself and
just to give you the tools to navigate life so
that you feel like you can confidently make the decisions
that are aligned for you and you know, avoid burnout
and just live a far more streamlined kind of purposeful life.
