Hey there, to write this, I had to delve deep into myself and untangle aspects of my life that are hard to dissect, and then put those experiences into words, which can be a daunting process! One of the things I discovered is that I've been hiding for most of my life. Sharing my story takes me to a vulnerable place, as hiding feels more comfortable and safe. However, I'm realizing that now is the time to share who I am and what I have learned from my experiences with the world.
As a Projector, my way of working and living differs from most, but I spent years trying to work hard to fit into another mold.
In my younger years, I lived in fascinating places and had unconventional jobs, always thinking that they would lead to a specific career path. However, as I entered my 40s, life didn't seem to follow a linear pattern for me, unlike the experiences of many people around me.
I started to confront a personal narrative that I wasn't good enough. However, I realized that this narrative stemmed from the cultural conditioning that insisted I had to work hard, push, hustle, secure a stable and lucrative job, get married, and have kids at that specific point in my life.
Since my life didn't fit into that mold, I felt like something was fundamentally wrong with me, and I considered myself a failure. If I wasn’t successful in the eyes of our culture, I couldn’t see where my value and worth came from.
Adding to this sense was that I couldn’t seem to conform to traditional career paths or “hustle” like those around me to create “success” (side note: none of us are designed to "hustle". This is cultural conditioning).
I felt different from those around me but lacked the framework to understand all the ways I was different. At this point, I began doubting myself, feeling bitter towards life, and experiencing shame around my life path.
As a result, I struggled with chronic self-esteem and self-worth issues, and I was unsure of my purpose and what to do next.
To finally understand all of this, was like drinking Kool Aid—flavor: Hallelujah!—on a hot summer day; I couldn’t get enough of it!
I was pushing and forcing, and expressing my gifts in the wrong way, trying to "fit in" to a cultural narrative that was never going to work for me.
I discovered that as a Projector, I had difficulty keeping up with others because I lacked sustainable workforce energy. My open chart made me easily influenced by the world around me, causing me to turn the volume down on myself and I had become derailed from my authentic self. All of this was leading to burnout and health issues. I'm sure many can relate to this feeling.
The good news was that now I had my own "Life Strategy Playbook" to navigate back home, rather than being swayed by the world around me.
I've learned to embrace my innate gifts highlighted in my chart, understand my unique role, and approach success in a way that's aligned with who I am. I understand the powerful and unique role I play in the world as a Projector.
I've learned that success for me won't come from working harder and will look different from others. It's essential for me to approach it in a way that is more aligned with who I am
Human Design restored my broken sense of worth and value, and created harmony in my being where nothing else had.
While Human Design brought an understanding of the potential of who I am, the Quantum Alignment System (EFT, or "tapping"), is how I healed the pain and old stores that were holding me back from stepping into MY potential. This website is proof of that!
If any part of this resonated with you, I would be honored to guide you on your journey of discovery and stepping into your potential, to elevate your soul!
More specifically, I love latin dance and you’ll often find me on a dance floor in my home town, or in Central America. This part of me was reawakened during a trip to Guatemala a few years ago, and I've been turning the volume up on it ever since. Dancing puts me in touch with my sensual and passionate side.
Whether it be a walk in the nature preserve close to my house, camping, paddling my SUP, sitting by a lake, or taking a wilderness adventure, I need to disconnect from the “doing-ness” of the world (no defined sacral here). Taking this time, even if it's mid-day when I'm "supposed" to be working, frees my mind, and it's usually when the next inspirational idea comes in that I'm meant to share. Then I'm inspired to work.
When a topic interests me I want to learn as much as I can. These are areas where I have deep wisdom, but I need a solid foundation before I start sharing it with the world. I wait for the right timing and pay attention to my Strategy & Authority to know when to share my wisdom with others.
