If you’ve ever felt like you had to prove your worth, work harder to deserve success, or constantly seek validation, your Undefined Heart Center might be at play.

The Undefined Heart Center is one of the most conditioned areas in Human Design, leaving many of us stuck in overworking, over-promising, and over-proving. But what if your worthiness wasn’t something you had to prove—but something you simply owned?

In this episode, we’re breaking down:

• How the Undefined Heart Center impacts self-worth and validation

• The sneaky ways it shows up in career, relationships, and daily life

• How to stop the cycle of proving yourself and start trusting your natural value

If you’ve ever thought “I just need to work harder” or “I’ll feel worthy when…”, this episode is for you.

What if the way you show up in relationships has less to do with effort—and more to do with your subconscious capacity?

Returning to the show is my friend, mentor, and frequent guest, Nadia Gabrielle—a teacher of conscious strategy and subconscious capacity.

In this episode, Nadia and I dive into the deep, often overlooked connection between capacity and relationships. She shares how our subconscious beliefs shape the way we connect with others—whether in personal relationships, work dynamics, or even our relationship with institutions and systems.

Through real-life case studies and personal experiences, we explore:

• How subconscious capacity impacts relationships (in ways you might not expect)

• The patterns that keep you stuck in relational burnout, overgiving, or misalignment

• Strategies for building resilience and repairing connections—without depleting yourself

If you’ve ever felt drained in your relationships, struggled to hold boundaries, or wondered why certain dynamics feel so hard, this conversation is for you.

Tune in to learn how to expand your capacity and transform the way you relate to others—without losing yourself in the process.

How much of your stress is truly yours—and how much comes from the world around you?

In this episode, we’re diving deep into the intersection of stress and conditioning, exploring how societal, familial, and even workplace expectations shape our responses to pressure. By understanding how conditioning contributes to chronic stress, you’ll learn to untangle inherited patterns and reclaim peace.

We’ll cover:

• How your Human Design reveals stress patterns and where you’re most vulnerable to conditioning

• Tools to differentiate external stress from your own natural rhythms

• Strategies to decondition, restore alignment, and protect your energy in a world that thrives on hustle

If you’re feeling the weight of other people’s expectations or struggling to find calm amidst chaos, this episode is for you.

This episode explores how Human Design can help you manage work-related stress by aligning with your unique energy Types and centers. 

It covers strategies for creating balance in a professional setting and optimizing work habits to support mental, emotional, and physical health.

Returning to the show is friend and frequent guest Nadia Gabrielle.

You may have heard past episodes with Nadia on all things Projectors, having a Self-Projected Authority, Subconscious Capacity Building, Service Design, and more.

In this episode, you’ll hear two Projectors deeply recognizing each other as we discuss why expanding into products is supportive for service providers to manage their energy and avoid burnout.

Nadia has just opened the doors to her latest offering, Product Design School, so we discuss:

• What is Product Design and how it differs from Service Design?

• When should a business owner expand into Products?

• Nadia’s “winter of discontent,” how it affected her health, and how her sustainable product offering afforded her the time and space to take care of herself and heal

• How she partners Human Design with solid business strategies

• My personal experience as a student in Service Design School and working with Nadia in a one-in-one capacity on my own subconscious capacity building and how I’m expanding into products

This week marks the sixth anniversary of this podcast and my 25th year in San Francisco!

So, to celebrate, I put myself on the hot seat to answer all the questions reflecting on it.

And who better to interview me than a friend, podcaster emeritus, and someone who loves San Francisco as much as I do - Diane Sanfilippo!

Diane and I go behind the scenes and share:

• Lessons learned from podcasting and how we’ve evolved from it

• How podcasting aligns with my (and our) Human Designs

• What brought us to the San Francisco Bay Area

• What we love about San Francisco and why we still love it so much

• Things we haven’t yet done in San Francisco that we still want to do

In this episode, I’m joined by Sandy Yang. Sandy first joined me in Episode 194, the first episode in the Human Design Authority series, where she shared what it’s like to have an Emotional Authority.

Sandy is an Energy Healer and Brain Rewiring Coach.

You’ll hear:

• Sandy explain what’s energy healing and brain rewiring

• Personal and client experiences of both practices in work

• How Energy Healing and Brain Rewiring complement Human Design

• Recent observations we’ve made with Human Design, both in ourselves and with others, regarding Profile Lines, Defined and Undefined Centers, and more!

Returning to the show for the fifth time is business design and capacity-building strategist Nadia Gabrielle.

Nadia is the creator of Service Design School, several classes and workshops, and she works one-on-one with clients in a capacity.

In this episode, we’re celebrating the fourth anniversary of @ProjectorsInvited, Nadia’s wildly successful, popular, feel-good, and funny Instagram account!

You’ll hear us answer questions from our audiences on:

• How to use your Human Design to find your niche

• How to deal with being ghosted

• How to create Projector invitations

• What to do when you're constantly giving and giving but you're not being recognized

…and so much more!

While these questions were asked in the context of business, we know that everything's connected, and much of what we discuss falls into capacity building and personal development in business and in life!

If you’re a Projector or have a Projector in your life, be sure you’re following @ProjectorsInvited!

This time Anna joins me for a collaborative conversation on a variety of topics, including:

• The nuances of Human Design and how it’s influenced how we curate our businesses in big and small ways
