When I stumbled across Human Design eight years ago, I was at first horrified (“Wait for the invitation?” WTF?!?) and then fascinated.
According to this system, your birth date, time and location reveal the blueprint of how you’re designed to move through the world. It pulls from astrology, Kabbalah, the I Ching and the chakra system.
It was weird, esoteric and sometimes bizarrely accurate.
One concept in Human Design has stuck with me ever since, especially when it comes to being with other people.
A quick overview:
Your Human Design chart includes nine centers that are either open or defined, with gates and channels connecting them. Active elements in your chart (shown in color) reflect your innate strengths, challenges, and life purpose.
Here’s mine as an example.
See those solid lines connecting some of the centers? Those are active channels, like energetic highways already wired into me.
Now here’s where it gets interesting:
When you’re in a group, your collective energies combine to form something entirely new. If you happen to have one active gate in a channel, and I have the other, we complete it – together we activate a new energy neither of us could access alone.
We can quite literally do things together that we cannot do alone, simply by being in each other’s presence.
Now, I’m not an Human Design practitioner or even a fan at this point. I don’t know if their explanation for this is accurate.
But at the very least it’s an incredible metaphor to describe the creative power of community.
Have you ever noticed that certain people bring out different aspects of you?
When we come together in presence – especially with a group grounded in curiosity and love – the intelligence of life conducts wisdom through each of us in ways to which we’re uniquely suited.
This is exactly what I witness inside the IMPACT membership.
I’m not just leading the group – I’m led by something greater that arises between us. When you ask a question, it’s not just for you; it opens something for all of us.
That’s why IMPACT is limited to just 30 members. It preserves the intimacy and magic of a transformational space where every face is known and every voice matters.
Our new theme or the month of June is:
Play & Get Paid.
We’ll explore howh play can be the engine of your offers, your conversations, your visibility – and how being yourself can attract the money, clients and opportunities you desire.
And since I’m feeling frisky…
If you join now, you’ll be one of the next 3 members to receive a bonus 30 minute 1:1 “Being Unstoppable” session with me. (A value that far exceeds the cost of membership.) It’s a deep dive into the clarity and confidence that’s already with you, waiting to be unleashed.
Consider yourself invited. 😉
