I’ve spent decades second-guessing my natural enthusiasm for life and the way it manifests because it was too much for someone else. I made my world smaller and smaller to avoid being scrutinized and judged negatively for simply being me. And then I met my Human Design. That’s when I fell in love. With me.

Surrendering to the “should’s” is a rational survival strategy when you’re young, but it can lead to failure, depression, and despair at maturity when the dissonance between who one truly is and who they’ve allowed themselves to become is no longer bearable.

Learning to make decisions this way, i.e. mechanically, is the most frightening and exciting part of the Human Design experience. This is where transformation happens. It's where the right people and opportunities begin to show up at just the right time. It's where the clarity of being who you are is much more satisfying than pretending to be someone you're not. It's where true love and acceptance of yourself and others grows beyond measure.
