00:01:47 Noelle

Thank you so much for having me Merrily I'm.

00:01:49 Noelle

Happy to be here.

00:01:50 Merrily

Yay. Thank you. Yes. Oh, yeah. I'm so excited to talk about human design. It's something that I bring up in pretty much any conversation where it even has a whisper of woo.

00:02:01 Noelle

Time.

00:02:04 Merrily

So yeah, it's become really popular so.

00:02:08 Merrily

So I did talk about it.

00:02:10 Noelle

It's definitely having a bit of a a moment I think, like so many things that so many of the topics that you get into on your podcast. Yeah, there's a there's a moment where things that were maybe a little more obscure are becoming more mainstream, which is wonderful.

00:02:24 Merrily

Yes, I love that. Well, we just kind of usually start wherever you think you think your path started with sort of human design and where you're at today would love to.

00:02:36 Merrily

Learn more about that.

00:02:37 Noelle

Absolutely.

00:02:40 Noelle

I guess I'll start by.

00:02:41 Noelle

Saying that it's I didn't expect.

00:02:43 Noelle

To be here, I didn't expect that this would be what I would be doing professionally, but it's also not.

00:02:52 Noelle

So while like it's not so unexpected, I grew up in a family that was.

00:02:57 Noelle

I grew up in Northern California most.

00:03:00 Noelle

And in a family that was very open to all of these kinds of things like.

00:03:07 Noelle

You wouldn't know it from looking at my parents from the outside, but you would be like, oh, that's a family that has a a family astrologer and you know, like my first set of tarot cards came from my mom when I was a kid and things like that. So there's definitely an openness to a lot of the, maybe more.

00:03:27 Merrily

Alternative.

00:03:30 Noelle

Spiritual practices, I guess, actually not that human design is a spiritual practice. It's it's not. But I guess what I mean is that. Yeah. So I didn't grow up with.

00:03:40 Noelle

Human design, yeah.

00:03:42 Noelle

So I I came across it.

00:03:44 Noelle

1st.

00:03:46 Noelle

When I was in my early 20s, I think it was 2008, a family friend, I was on a road trip and I stopped at her house to stay, and she had this stack of charts that she had printed out for my whole family and started telling.

00:03:59 Noelle

Me about the designs.

00:04:00 Noelle

Of everyone in my family and I thought, wow, this is.

00:04:03 Noelle

Cool. This is interesting, but it didn't.

00:04:05 Noelle

I'd be lying if I said it.

00:04:06 Noelle

Changed my life in that moment it.

00:04:10 Noelle

And I just thought, oh, OK. And then went on my merry way and.

00:04:14 Noelle

Then it was years.

00:04:15 Noelle

Years went by before it, really.

00:04:17 Noelle

Crossed my path again and.

00:04:19 Noelle

At that point it it really did start to.

00:04:21 Noelle

Change my life it.

00:04:24 Noelle

I.

00:04:26 Noelle

It took a while.

00:04:27 Noelle

For all of the information human design can be quite dense and lingo heavy, and there was a while where I was like this feels interesting and cool and right.

00:04:38 Noelle

But the information didn't really have a place to land in me, if you will. Like, I didn't quite know what to make of it. And then as soon as that shifted.

00:04:52 Noelle

All of my sort of personal stuff, all of my struggles, all of the things in myself that I was fighting against are so completely and clearly reflected in my human design chart. And once I sort.

00:05:09 Noelle

Of realized that.

00:05:10 Noelle

I just became really interested in learning the system.

00:05:13 Noelle

And I was kind of off to the races and you know, then spent.

00:05:18 Noelle

The next year's studying just really diving in and trying to learn everything I could 1st through self study and then with various teachers and that was really all for my own benefit. It was really just like, oh, I'm this is helpful to me and.

00:05:33 Noelle

This is.

00:05:34 Noelle

Useful to my family and.

00:05:36 Noelle

This is it was.

00:05:38 Noelle

Impacting my relationships in such a positive way and and then it got to the point where I was giving readings for friends just for fun, and then it turned into friends of friends and friends and friends of friends. And I was like, this is taking up a lot of my time. I should probably probably.

00:05:56 Noelle

Do this as a business that hiring him now.

00:06:00 Merrily

Wow. Cool. Yeah, I love that you mentioned that it's.

00:06:05 Merrily

I think I'm paraphrasing you that I heard it just a moment ago, but it's basically, you know, learning something about yourself that you maybe felt like it was a negative in comparison to what is this the norm of succeeding?

00:06:19

Finally.

00:06:20 Merrily

Yeah. And I know we talked about that because you were so great and gave me a really wonderful, very in-depth reading an hour and a half. So. And I know we could have gone even deeper than that because it's so complex.

00:06:32 Merrily

Yeah, that was the first thing that attracted me to human design was. I heard about it from a friend, did my chart, and I was like, hmm, seems interesting, I.

00:06:40 Merrily

But it seems like it's.

00:06:42 Merrily

Gonna take a while to really understand.

00:06:44 Merrily

But so let let it sit for a while and came back. And then I was like, oh, wow, this really talks about like, how I express my energy and how I take energy and process it and makes me feel not bad about how I do it because the way I do it as a manifesting generator is not normal and.

00:07:04 Merrily

Is against the norm, so yeah. Like that you brought that up.

00:07:08 Noelle

It really is, at its core, human design is about self acceptance and I think it's a really radical self acceptance, it's.

00:07:18 Noelle

It's acknowledging that we are all totally unique and singular, and that our way of operating all of the things that we tend to look.

00:07:31 Noelle

At as flaws.

00:07:33 Noelle

Are most often differences right? We tend to see differences, see our own differences.

00:07:38 Noelle

As flaws as.

00:07:40 Noelle

Bugs and human design is really about reorienting you to what is native to you, what is innate in you and celebrating those things as gifts or, as you know, it's a feature, not a bug. Right? And it really helps you identify.

00:08:00 Noelle

Like oh, is this is this me or is?

00:08:01 Noelle

This something I've picked.

00:08:03

Up.

00:08:03 Merrily

Hmm.

00:08:05 Noelle

And there's nothing you need.

00:08:06 Noelle

To do in human design, right, there's nothing. It's not about.

00:08:13 Noelle

It's funny to be in this little professionally. I feel like so many human design. Like if this were a book, it would probably show up in the spirituality section or the Self help section. And I sort of famously amongst my friends, I have no interest in the that those sections of the bookstore I like can't bring myself to read.

00:08:34 Noelle

I'll help, but for the most part, right?

00:08:37 Noelle

Because it doesn't. But this doesn't feel quite.

00:08:40 Noelle

Like that, even though it does help the self.

00:08:43 Noelle

It's really you aren't.

00:08:44 Noelle

Doing anything you're not trying to.

00:08:45 Noelle

Improve yourself here. You're just.

00:08:48 Noelle

Letting go of.

00:08:49 Noelle

The things that were never yours to begin with, so it's not about self improvement, it's about removing and just getting back to what is sort of your core essence.

00:09:00 Merrily

Yeah, like kind of before your programs by society or your family or your friends and all the the groups you're in, yeah.

00:09:09 Noelle

Exactly. Yeah, all of we all are really deeply conditioned by, yeah, our schooling, our family, our friends, our culture. And there's no way around that. That's not a bad thing necessarily. It just.

00:09:21 Noelle

It's.

00:09:23 Noelle

But figuring out which reactions you have, which beliefs you hold, which attitudes, which stories are conditioning, and which are yours is really.

00:09:34 Merrily

Hmm.

00:09:36 Noelle

Can be feel a lot more tricky than it seems from the outside, and that's usually where I encountered people where people are saying oh I'm.

00:09:45 Noelle

I I feel this about myself, but I'm fighting it.

00:09:49 Merrily

Right, yes. Yeah. The fighting for sure.

00:09:56 Merrily

Yeah, because something, I think we we also talked about in, in my own practice, I do sort of sort of magic key practices and stuff like that. But a lot of that is the sort of know know thyself tenant and I do think that human design is so good at at that.

00:10:14 Merrily

Because you can see it, you see the this the the architecture of who you are and you go. Does that sound right? I think it does, you know, or you know, or however that works for you.

00:10:26 Noelle

Totally. I think you know what human design.

00:10:30 Noelle

Does is it gives.

00:10:31 Noelle

You a map of your energy system and it is at its core. It's a mechanical system, right? It's not a belief system. It's not a religion, it's not a spiritual practice. It's really just giving you.

00:10:34 Merrily

Hmm.

00:10:41 Merrily

Right.

00:10:46 Noelle

The.

00:10:46 Noelle

Blueprint of you and.

00:10:49 Noelle

Look, this is how you exchange.

00:10:50 Noelle

Energy with the world.

00:10:52 Noelle

And there are there's an element too. It gives you the blueprint, but it also gives you the user manual, like the basic user manual, where it's most of us. If we're, I like using vehicle metaphors for this. Like if you are a sailboat who has only ever gotten the user manual.

00:11:12 Noelle

Or a helicopter.

00:11:14 Noelle

You're probably feeling pretty bad about yourself most days, right? So human design is just saying, oh, you're not a helicopter. You're a sailboat. Here are the basics of how to harness the wind, you know, go, go play around, be free. But a sailboat is not better than a helicopter. It's not worse than a helicopter. Nothing in human design is good or bad.

00:11:36 Noelle

Everything is neutral, everything just is, so it's really.

00:11:40 Noelle

Just about ohh.

00:11:42 Noelle

This is what I was born with.

00:11:44 Noelle

How can I get back to that? How can I harness that as opposed to oh, I was born with these gifts, but I don't really trust that those are gifts, so I'm going to go chase after these other things that society is telling me are the real gifts that one should.

00:12:00 Noelle

Have.

00:12:01 Merrily

Right.

00:12:02 Noelle

I'm going to it's trying.

00:12:03 Noelle

To be something you're not, right.

00:12:04 Merrily

I yeah.

00:12:06 Noelle

It's what they're trying to climb a tree.

00:12:07 Noelle

Or whatever have you suffer.

00:12:08 Merrily

Like, how's that going?

00:12:09 Merrily

To work. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And I think a lot of times because you're so great in your reading, cause you will say, like, So what do you, you know, have you experienced or what's your experience with that? And I would say like 90% of the time, it's like, oh, yeah, I remember doing X as a kid. Right. Like, way before all of the other stuff.

00:12:25

Wait.

00:12:28 Merrily

Being piled on top of you. And so it's kind of like rediscovering who that pure kid was right and reconnect with with that person, that little child.

00:12:39 Noelle

Absolutely, I feel.

00:12:39 Noelle

Yeah.

00:12:40 Noelle

Like they're that's a really common experience where.

00:12:45 Noelle

We either remember a version of ourselves, a younger self that.

00:12:49 Noelle

Was naturally doing that.

00:12:50 Merrily

Yeah.

00:12:51 Noelle

Or sometimes people don't know people are.

00:12:55 Noelle

At all different places. Sometimes people think, oh, I've always been trying to do that, or that's my natural impulse. But I didn't think that was OK.

00:13:03 Merrily

Right.

00:13:08 Noelle

And other times people.

00:13:09 Noelle

Feel really like oh, no. I I know.

00:13:10 Noelle

That's true about me, but it's it.

00:13:13 Noelle

They're all versions of of, sort of.

00:13:14 Noelle

I was told this wasn't OK. I observed that this wasn't OK to be this way or.

00:13:18

Hmm.

00:13:22 Noelle

I just haven't trusted that.

00:13:24 Noelle

But yeah, very often people.

00:13:25 Noelle

Do have some sense that yeah, this is.

00:13:28 Noelle

This is true about me.

00:13:30 Noelle

Feel like I have the permission to.

00:13:32 Merrily

Yes.

00:13:32 Noelle

Play or operate that way.

00:13:35 Merrily

Yes, yeah, for sure.

00:13:37 Noelle

No, I know it's so real. It's so real.

00:13:40 Merrily

Like Oh my.

00:13:41 Merrily

Gosh.

00:13:41 Merrily

AP Previous guest I had on who's wonderful as Paul Newell, and he and I like geeked out because he's also a manifest and we so we're we were exchanging a little bit about, about being manifesting generator and like The thing is with that is a lot of interests and a lot of sort of your gut fingers and all sorts of.

00:13:49 Noelle

Ohh nice.

00:14:01 Merrily

Pots and you're kind.

00:14:03 Merrily

Which isn't necessarily like the way, at least in the Western American culture, it's like, no, you have one thing and you do the one thing.

00:14:12 Noelle

Stick with it like. No quitting, yeah.

00:14:13 Noelle

Stick with it, yes.

00:14:15 Merrily

Yeah. And we were both just like, laughing about how. I mean, there is an aspect of that, but it's like, but we also have.

00:14:22 Merrily

All these other things so.

00:14:25 Merrily

It's really funny.

00:14:25 Noelle

It.

00:14:25 Noelle

It's really it's really wonderful when people, it's wonderful to have those moments where people say, well, yeah, like the manifesting generators who, where they're saying, Oh well.

00:14:36 Noelle

Yeah, I do. Move on from things really quickly or I do have all of these different interests and I'm so scattered. I'm so sort of, you know, I have no follow through and instead flipping that it's like.

00:14:49 Noelle

Hey, that's not a this is not a bug like this.

00:14:52 Noelle

Is a feature.

00:14:53 Noelle

Of you, you are designed to follow your interests.

00:14:56 Noelle

And let your gut.

00:14:57 Noelle

Lead you to what is the next?

00:14:59 Noelle

Interesting thing. It's not that you're and you know, a shiny like chasing the shiny object. You're not like some sort of uncontrollable little creature following a shiny object. It's like, no, you were designed to let your gut Orient you and pivot constantly to what is interesting, and it usually for manifesting generators does look like.

00:15:19 Noelle

One thing to the next and then sometimes.

00:15:21 Noelle

Yeah.

00:15:21 Noelle

We circle back.

00:15:24 Noelle

But you all are really here to show.

00:15:26 Noelle

Us that there isn't one way to do.

00:15:28 Noelle

Things there's not a linear path and.

00:15:31 Noelle

What a gift like.

00:15:32 Noelle

From I feel like it's whatever I'm.

00:15:35 Noelle

Talking to friends in human design.

00:15:37 Noelle

And you're talking about the types that aren't.

00:15:39 Noelle

You, my sister and I.

00:15:39 Noelle

Hmm.

00:15:42 Noelle

Were just talking about man.

00:15:43 Noelle

Costing generators and she was like.

00:15:45 Noelle

God, I'm obsessed with them. They're so cool. Like, like. They're so interesting. Like, wow. They're so and it's.

00:15:52 Noelle

So easy from the outside to look.

00:15:54 Noelle

At look at.

00:15:54 Merrily

Oh.

00:15:54 Merrily

Right.

00:15:55 Noelle

Look at other people and think wow, that's.

00:15:57 Noelle

Cool the way they do.

00:15:58 Noelle

Things when you're in it, it's.

00:16:00 Noelle

Just we're we're very often weighted down by the.

00:16:05 Noelle

The negative narrative.

00:16:06 Noelle

Yeah, like things. And why can't I focus and no, stop.

00:16:09 Noelle

Right.

00:16:11 Merrily

That I know it's a it's struggle if you're if you're kind of you're trying to relearn.

00:16:19 Merrily

That it's OK.

00:16:20 Merrily

Yeah, that it's a feature.

00:16:23 Merrily

So and to have fun with it.

00:16:23 Noelle

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:16:26 Merrily

So I do.

00:16:27 Merrily

Want to talk a little bit about? Because I did look into and I think we sort of our pre pre chat before talked about the actual origins of human design, which is pretty woo. And I think it's awesome though.

00:16:40 Noelle

So.

00:16:40 Noelle

It is definitely a wild story so.

00:16:43 Merrily

Yes. Would you mind sharing? What about it?

00:16:45 Noelle

Absolute.

00:16:47 Noelle

So the origin story of human design is pretty up there. It's. There is a guy named Robert Allen Krakauer. He's Canadian. He worked in media in Quebec and in the 80s. He basically from one day to the next, like left his life.

00:17:08 Noelle

He just kind of up and peaced out, dropped out of his life in Canada, and he ended up living in Ibiza. He moved to Ibiza and was living, I think, kind of as a like, a wild man.

00:17:23 Noelle

And at a certain point, he had this really intense experience where he was going back to, he's going back home one night and he was living in this kind of this old stone.

00:17:39 Noelle

I don't know what the word.

00:17:40 Noelle

Is sort of cottage, if you will, and he he walked in and he was.

00:17:49 Noelle

Basically.

00:17:51 Noelle

The word almost invaded like he was consumed by this presence inside of him and it.

00:17:59 Noelle

Was, as he called it.

00:18:00 Noelle

The voice after the fact, he.

00:18:02 Noelle

Referred to it as a voice. So basically the voice.

00:18:04 Noelle

Is all of a sudden inside of.

00:18:05 Noelle

Him and he said. Are you ready to work?

00:18:09 Noelle

And for the next 8 days, he basically transcribed the human design system, and it wasn't like a a cool like visitation, like, chill hesitation.

00:18:21 Noelle

Like like.

00:18:22 Noelle

Really physically demanding, I think kind of terrifying experience. And he emerged from it with just all of this information, like with the basics of this system. And that's the origin of human design. And he basically.

00:18:27

Hmm.

00:18:45 Noelle

From there, I think it took him a while to sort of process what had happened.

00:18:49 Noelle

But a few years later.

00:18:51 Noelle

Began teaching about it.

00:18:53 Noelle

And he spent the rest of his life. He died. Oh gosh, 2011, 2012.

00:18:59 Noelle

He said the rest of.

00:19:00 Noelle

His life teaching, human design and.

00:19:05 Noelle

It's a pretty wild story and I think he very much acknowledged. Look this.

00:19:09 Noelle

Is this is?

00:19:11 Noelle

Madness. You know, this is. I am. I am mad, he said. The things. But what's cool about human design? I feel like that story is probably not a big lift for most of your listeners because I feel like listening.

00:19:23 Noelle

To this podcast.

00:19:25 Noelle

Have a channel system is is probably not a big lift, but I.

00:19:30 Noelle

Always like to tell people.

00:19:32 Noelle

If it comes up that you don't have.

00:19:34 Noelle

To care about that story at all.

00:19:36 Merrily

Right.

00:19:37 Noelle

Right. Like there's.

00:19:40 Noelle

Human design is not a religion. You don't have to. It's not a belief system, Laura, who is not a guru. Oh, by one detail is that Robert Alan Krakauer. He changed his name to Rauru, which, you know, fits the picture. Sometimes of people being like, what the heck is this?

00:19:53 Noelle

Right.

00:20:00 Noelle

But yeah, so you don't have to care about raw. He basically was a sort of a messenger or a vehicle for this information and.

00:20:11 Noelle

He said really explicitly look, this is an experiment.

00:20:15 Noelle

I'm not a guru. I'm not looking for followers, I'm just a teacher. I have this information. I'm here to give it away and it's your job to whoever was listening to take in this information and go experiment the fundamentals of human design are that we're all different.

00:20:23 Noelle

Hmm.

00:20:34 Noelle

And no one can. No one else can tell.

00:20:36 Noelle

Us what is best for?

00:20:37 Noelle

Us right. We are all our own personal authorities.

00:20:41 Noelle

And.

00:20:44 Noelle

So there's something very, you know, if people look at it from the outside and they're like, what is this weird culty thing? It's like, Nah. Like the very the very crux of this, the very core nugget of human design is that you are your own authority and no one else can tell you who you are or what is correct.

00:21:05 Noelle

For you. So this is just information.

00:21:09 Noelle

And it's up to all of us to go play around and experiment with it.

00:21:13 Merrily

Done.

00:21:13 Noelle

That, in my personal experience, and I think in the experience of so many people around me, when you do integrate it.

00:21:22 Noelle

It makes things a lot easier.

00:21:24 Noelle

You know the the vehicle tends to operate a lot more easily when you're using the right manual right boat with the sailboat manual as opposed to the helicopter manual. Things get a lot.

00:21:35 Merrily

Yes.

00:21:37 Noelle

More things get easier. Things are.

00:21:39 Noelle

Come on.

00:21:40 Merrily

Yes, for sure. And and I like that. It's like, well, Raz philosophy and it's sort of the philosophy of philosophy of human design is it is an experiment.

00:21:41 Noelle

Yeah.

00:21:51 Noelle

Yeah.

00:21:52 Merrily

You can step in and step out like I did when I first saw. I was, like, seems interesting, but I'll look at it later kind of thing.

00:22:00 Noelle

OK.

00:22:01 Merrily

But yeah, it's yeah, very cool. I love.

00:22:04 Noelle

I would say too that like you don't need human design like I I love human design. I am like I am. I am obsessed with human design and find it so deeply useful. Obviously right, nobody needs this. Like there's plenty of people who are like you said.

00:22:22 Noelle

Who are we? Are.

00:22:23 Noelle

Instinctually know certain things about ourselves, right?

00:22:29 Noelle

What a human design chart does is most of the time it's reflecting that back to you. You say, Oh yeah, I do know that about.

00:22:35 Noelle

Myself, but if you.

00:22:37 Noelle

If you're already instinctually doing this stuff, like if things are going well, if you feel good, great.

00:22:43 Noelle

You don't need this.

00:22:45 Noelle

But when people get stuck or feel like they are.

00:22:50 Noelle

Far away from who they are or who they're meant to be. That's when it's really useful. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:22:52 Merrily

Mm-hmm.

00:22:59 Merrily

Yes, I can agree with that for sure. Any sort of anything that helps with that cause, like astrology, can do that for people for sure or like reading the tear of any of these things can kind of get you in that same vein. But I think it's so cool about human design. It is. It kind of takes away.

00:23:13 Noelle

It's not.

00:23:18 Merrily

Like I love astrology because I love archetypes and symbols and that kind of thing. But like you're, I think this is from my perspective now, a lot of people maybe aren't as enmeshed with that, whereas human design is more kind of modern and like a man literally like a manual.

00:23:34 Merrily

It's like kind of technical, yeah.

00:23:35 Noelle

It is. It's highly technical, it's very mechanical. It basically an explanation of the mechanics in your body of how energy is working.

00:23:37 Merrily

Yeah.

00:23:45 Noelle

And so I think.

00:23:46 Noelle

There's something really it it does straddle.

00:23:49 Noelle

Multiple things. It's like most people.

00:23:52 Noelle

Who first get into it tend.

00:23:53 Noelle

To be people who are into astrology or.

00:23:56 Noelle

You know any?

00:23:57 Noelle

Of these other sort of systems, but.

00:24:01 Noelle

There are. There are a surprising number of people that I've talked to who say things like.

00:24:07 Noelle

I'm not into astrology.

00:24:09 Noelle

But everything you're telling me is right on. Yeah, and I.

00:24:16 Noelle

Think that there's a way because.

00:24:18 Noelle

It's so mechanical and technical.

00:24:23 Noelle

It really does have the power to appeal to people who quote UN quote aren't into astrology or aren't into Hulu where it's just like hey, oh, OK, I can, I can do this. I can listen to these sort of guidelines about how to best use my energy and then they feel their life changing and.

00:24:28

Thank you.

00:24:42 Noelle

So they're like, I don't know how it works.

00:24:43 Noelle

Like, don't worry about it. You don't have to worry. Don't worry about the origin story, you.

00:24:47 Noelle

Don't have to.

00:24:47

Worry about the.

00:24:48 Noelle

Planets, right? You can just hear these basic.

00:24:52 Noelle

Pillars of human mind and your chart and your your energy type and the off to the races. But I'm with you. It's I love. I love the woo stuff, I guess.

00:25:06 Noelle

But you don't have to.

00:25:08 Noelle

To be interested in this.

00:25:09 Noelle

Or to benefit from it.

00:25:12 Merrily

Yeah, great explanation. So with that for your own sort of knowledge and learning about human design, was it all like self study or were there any particular teachers that you looked at or anything like that?

00:25:25 Noelle

Yeah, so it started.

00:25:29 Noelle

So I first I first had, you know, so I was starting to read about it was starting. I got a reading that was OK where I.

00:25:37 Noelle

You know, was having this sense. Oh, this. There's there's really something to this that I don't like. I was saying the information didn't really like land or take root in me. Then I had a really my really pivotal moment with human design came when a.

00:25:47 Merrily

Mm-hmm.

00:25:53 Noelle

And who had become really fluent in human design sat me down and she explained all of the basic mechanics of the chart, right, like just how the chart functions, how the body graph works, how everything is connected.

00:26:13 Noelle

And.

00:26:16 Noelle

It was such a revelatory experience all of a sudden all these sort of pieces that had been floating around where I was like. Yeah, yeah. What? OK, I don't really know what this means. We're all of a sudden, just, like, almost fell into place and locked in inside of me is what it felt like. I was like, oh, I completely understand this now, like, I'm I think I I did. I did.

00:26:36 Noelle

Reading for a friend of mine right after that, like two days later.

00:26:41 Noelle

And she was like, whoa, wait like.

00:26:43 Noelle

You could do this professionally and I was like, well, no, I literally just learned about this. But when I think back to that reading years ago, I stand by it like, yeah, you know, there's a lot I didn't know at that point, but just having a basic understanding of the fundamentals and how everything was connected all of a sudden, I just sort of felt like I I knew I knew where to look. I knew how to interpret. It was like, I've been giving the.

00:27:08 Noelle

The basic translation right I like had the intro dictionary so yeah, so huge gratitude to my friend Nadia Quinn for doing that. And from there it was really self study for for quite a long time and just reading everything I could get my hands on and then I eventually.

00:27:18

Oh.

00:27:28 Noelle

Did start studying with various teachers and.

00:27:35 Noelle

There's a lot. There's a.

00:27:37 Noelle

Lot of human design stuff on the Internet that there's a lot that's available, I should say.

00:27:41 Noelle

Yeah.

00:27:43 Noelle

And it can be a.

00:27:44 Noelle

Little bit hard to know when you're, you know, on social media or YouTube or whatever like.

00:27:51 Noelle

What is legit?

00:27:52 Noelle

And I think there's a really wonderful thing happening right now where it is becoming more mainstream.

00:28:00 Noelle

Yes.

00:28:01 Noelle

And.

00:28:03 Noelle

That involves translating some of the language into things that are a little bit more.

00:28:08 Noelle

I don't know.

00:28:09 Noelle

Accessible some of the language of sort of the original human science system can be pretty activating. Or like there's a lot of words that feel kind of unflattering and people freak out about. Yeah, you have to.

00:28:10 Noelle

Yeah.

00:28:22 Noelle

I don't want to say purists.

00:28:24 Noelle

But you have people who are really devoted to preserving.

00:28:28 Noelle

The way that.

00:28:30 Noelle

The information first came into the world, yeah, RAH or who.

00:28:35 Noelle

And then a.

00:28:36 Noelle

Lot of people being like, you know what, I want people to understand this. I'm going to change this name and call it something else. And so you know, I I feel pretty agnostic. I think there's a place for all of that stuff as people are looking into it or studying.

00:28:42 Merrily

Yeah.

00:28:48 Merrily

Mm-hmm.

00:28:51 Noelle

I know there can be this sort of, it can be hard to understand which what stuff online is legit.

00:28:59

So.

00:29:00 Noelle

So going back to the source material, I'm a details person. Of course, this is in my human design chart. I'm I'm also a projector. We're really natural students and.

00:29:11 Noelle

Really, part of what projectors are here to do is understand. Systems become become expert in a system and which feels pretty on the nose for me with learning this system. So I was really interested in, you know, reading the sort of.

00:29:29 Noelle

Original Manual of Human Design and getting into the.

00:29:35 Noelle

The video, there's a lot of videos of raw Online that people can find where he's talking.

00:29:39 Noelle

About the system.

00:29:40 Noelle

But there's also a lot of.

00:29:42 Noelle

People who are maybe more appealing, and I really encourage people to use their own.

00:29:50 Noelle

Gauge of what is interesting when they find people to study from right.

00:29:55 Merrily

Yeah.

00:29:57 Noelle

The whole point of this is that you are your own authority, and so there's no point in saying, oh, if you're learning about human design, you have to be only studying with the official people who study under raw like no, if you want, if your authority, if your inner authority is telling you to go study with somebody else, do that.

00:30:17 Merrily

Mm-hmm.

00:30:19 Noelle

Yeah.

00:30:21 Merrily

Yeah, very cool. Yeah, I like the the reminder about, like, inner authority because I think that's a new especially. Yeah. Here. I'm going to go again more. And for the view of like the new Age of Aquarius, it's very much about, like, not the guru mentality, the age of Pisces, right where you have like a.

00:30:39 Merrily

Leader or a?

00:30:40 Merrily

Fraternal figure that you're following, it's like now it's the collective. But that also means you, the individual, has a lot of responsibility with that and like being your own authority, like you said.

00:30:53 Merrily

Sarah.

00:30:53 Noelle

I think that's very that's, yes, completely. And I think sometimes people.

00:31:00 Noelle

Look at the outside of human design and they think, OK.

00:31:04 Noelle

White guy. Older white man like, you know, like leading and it it looks like something from the outside like oh, it looks like this. There's this guru.

00:31:13 Merrily

Right.

00:31:15 Noelle

In the middle.

00:31:15 Noelle

Of this but.

00:31:16 Merrily

Yeah.

00:31:16 Noelle

Actually, that's not at all what's going on, it's.

00:31:20 Noelle

Like, OK, yeah, the.

00:31:21 Noelle

Guy that came through is an older white man.

00:31:24 Noelle

And UM.

00:31:27 Noelle

But the fundamental teaching here is.

00:31:29 Noelle

Don't listen to me.

00:31:31 Merrily

MHM.

00:31:32 Noelle

What do you think? Like, what is your body saying? Yeah, right. Like, who are you? It's all about, I mean, it called human design calls itself the science of of differentiation. Right. It's the individual being the individual. And that is what benefits our collective.

00:31:44 Noelle

About.

00:31:52 Noelle

World the most is that when we are all living up to our own personal potential and offering the gifts that are linked to that with the world, that's where everybody is is.

00:32:07 Noelle

Best served when we're when we're paying attention to who we are as individuals and what we need and what we have to offer.

00:32:16 Noelle

Sure.

00:32:16

Yeah.

00:32:18 Merrily

Yeah. And I think also with that, because it took me when looking into human design, you actually kind of have to look at least for me when I was like looking, I was like, where did this even come from? You have to kind of look for it in my opinion. And then it's not called like Raw's human design. You know what I mean? It doesn't. It's not like there's a person immediately stamped onto you.

00:32:38 Merrily

I had to look a.

00:32:38 Merrily

Little bit to figure out.

00:32:39 Noelle

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:32:42 Merrily

So.

00:32:43 Noelle

Yeah, it's which I think is which I.

00:32:46 Noelle

Think is how it's supposed to be, right?

00:32:47 Merrily

Yeah, I think so too.

00:32:49 Noelle

He was the vehicle, you.

00:32:50 Noelle

Know or the messenger if.

00:32:51 Noelle

You will, but it's not about him at all.

00:32:54 Noelle

Yeah, just again, this mechanical information about how you work in the world.

00:33:01 Merrily

Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. So, so, so good. I love it. So I did talk a little bit about because you again, uh, we did sessions together. It was really great. But how would you explain that? You sort of run a session with somebody and your approach to it?

00:33:20 Noelle

Sure. So I people find me online. However they do. So they book on my website and when they do, they give me their birth information. So their birth time, their birth place.

00:33:34 Noelle

Their birth date and I usually also ask if there's anything else they want me to know, like anything they are.

00:33:42 Noelle

You know, sometimes people come to me and they're really wanting to know.

00:33:47 Noelle

You know, help figure out job stuff or, you know, in a they're in a certain place in their life that feels relevant to mention. Yeah. But then I pull up their charts. I like to sit with them for a while. Just.

00:34:00 Noelle

Have them.

00:34:02 Noelle

You know, I just kind of keep them in the back of my mind for a.

00:34:04 Noelle

While well before.

00:34:05 Noelle

I do a reading and then I meet with them online like via via zoom and I you interpret the chart for you so.

00:34:20 Noelle

What I usually do is and we can maybe next we can I can explain sort of an overview of all of the pieces of humans.

00:34:26 Noelle

Yeah.

00:34:28 Noelle

But so in a session in a in a foundational sort of intro session, I do 90 minutes and I explain how the chart works, right? So I'm explaining all of the centers in the body. I'm telling you about your energy type. I'm telling you about the major pillars of human design, which are.

00:34:49 Noelle

Your strategy for operating in the world like your basic operating instructions, I get into your authority, which is how you best make decisions.

00:34:59 Noelle

I go through and explain all of the centers in the body and how they show up for you. We're all a combination generally of defined centers, which are places where we are making energy and consistently being that energy out into the world, right where we sort of have consistent.

00:35:19 Noelle

Energy in some places and then there are other places where we have inconsistent energy.

00:35:23 Noelle

Where we're really.

00:35:24 Noelle

Taking in energy from the world around us and.

00:35:28 Noelle

So we'll I'll go through the centers we'll talk about.

00:35:32 Noelle

What you've got going on?

00:35:33 Noelle

In terms of your definition.

00:35:35 Noelle

How you're taking energy in where you're taking energy?

00:35:38 Noelle

In how that can.

00:35:39 Noelle

Show up for people.

00:35:41 Noelle

And sometimes that.

00:35:42 Noelle

Means I'll be sort of dipping into talking about channels. Those are the ways that centers are connected in the body graph and.

00:35:53 Noelle

People sometimes have a lot of questions and a lot of anecdotes they.

00:35:58 Noelle

Want to share and sometimes people?

00:35:59 Noelle

Are just wanting to take in information and.

00:36:01 Noelle

They hardly say a.

00:36:02 Noelle

Word. So it really depends on.

00:36:04 Noelle

You and sort of what you're interested in.

00:36:07 Noelle

But after that, if we have time, we go.

00:36:09 Noelle

Into profile, which is.

00:36:12 Noelle

Sort of your role in.

00:36:13 Noelle

The world, it's kind of your archetype.

00:36:16 Noelle

And then if we.

00:36:17 Noelle

Have time we go into incarnation Cross which is.

00:36:22 Noelle

Really your life.

00:36:22 Noelle

Theme and it really speaks to your purpose in life and that's generally a 90 minute session. And then if people are really interest.

00:36:33 Noelle

And.

00:36:34 Noelle

And want to know.

00:36:35 Noelle

More I do follow up.

00:36:36 Noelle

Sessions, usually for an hour and those can look like a lot of different things sometimes.

00:36:42 Noelle

People come back from you.

00:36:43 Noelle

Back to me wanting to know more about the channel and gate and just sort of going into the next.

00:36:47 Noelle

Layer of the chart.

00:36:50 Noelle

Sometimes people want to know about what are called.

00:36:52 Noelle

The four transformations or the?

00:36:54 Noelle

Arrows that are up by the head. That gets into things like how you best digest food, what environments are most supportive for you, the lens through which you view the world, what motivates you.

00:37:10 Noelle

There's a lot of really granular information in human design. I I mean, we could talk about your chart for months and months, but it's a lot of information right at the beginning. And my goal in a session is really for people to leave with.

00:37:18 Noelle

Yeah.

00:37:29 Noelle

Just a basic understanding of their own energy mechanics and also to know what they're looking at when they're looking at their body graph so that if they want to go.

00:37:35

Then.

00:37:37 Noelle

You know, follow a.

00:37:38 Noelle

Bunch of human design accounts on Instagram or whatever they they can see something and go oh, I have that. Oh, that's not me. Oh, that is me right there.

00:37:48 Merrily

Hmm.

00:37:49 Noelle

What people are?

00:37:50 Merrily

Talking about, yeah. Oh, for sure. Yeah. And I think the beauty of so, because I probably like most people, there's a lot of really great, like, free information about human design. You can put your chart in a lot of places online and get, like, the whole business and look things up. But I think what was really great about you.

00:37:52 Noelle

Harrington.

00:38:09 Merrily

And like sitting with you is like having.

00:38:12 Merrily

I put it like this.

00:38:14 Merrily

It's like having a storyteller tell you the story of you while you're sitting there, and it puts the pieces together way like cause when you're grabbing like different, disparate pieces, it's still like a lot of information that you really can't.

00:38:27 Noelle

Integrate.

00:38:27 Merrily

I mean, you can sort of integrate, but it's harder for me. It was a lot, it was really beneficial to have you walk through it and tell me.

00:38:34 Merrily

The story of me.

00:38:36 Noelle

Oh, I love that. Yeah, I love.

00:38:38 Noelle

That description of it, yeah, yes, you.

00:38:42 Noelle

You don't need to ever pay for anything with human design. If you want, you can find out everything on your own.

00:38:49 Noelle

But I do think the benefit.

00:38:51 Noelle

Of getting a reading from somebody.

00:38:54 Noelle

Who understands the whole system is that it? Just.

00:38:58 Noelle

Puts the pieces together.

00:39:00 Merrily

Mm-hmm.

00:39:00 Noelle

And helps people understand sort of the flow of information as opposed to right? These just disparate parts, but not quite knowing how they connect and there's always.

00:39:04 Noelle

Yeah.

00:39:09 Noelle

Mm-hmm.

00:39:12 Noelle

Like I've I've had.

00:39:14 Noelle

People who have come to me before, who really know quite a lot about human.

00:39:16 Noelle

Design and have had.

00:39:17 Noelle

Other readings before.

00:39:19 Noelle

And they'll come to me.

00:39:22 Noelle

With really specific questions about.

00:39:23 Noelle

But I don't understand this or these two pieces of interest.

00:39:26 Noelle

Hmm.

00:39:27 Noelle

And I've heard that.

00:39:28 Noelle

But this is in total conflict.

00:39:29 Noelle

With with each other and those are always places where I'm like OK, no, no. All right, there's.

00:39:31 Merrily

Hmm.

00:39:34 Merrily

A clear there's a clear thing here.

00:39:36 Noelle

Right. Like you're looking at.

00:39:37 Noelle

Two pieces of information that.

00:39:39 Noelle

There's kind of a high hierarchy like this is sort of bigger or more important in your chart than this other thing, or this may seem like it's in conflict.

00:39:41

Hmm.

00:39:46 Merrily

Alright.

00:39:51 Noelle

And it is and it's because both things are true. But like, we can talk through the way that might play out, it's really just sort of the benefit of getting a chart reading is bringing it into an integrated whole for you. Yeah. That's what. Yeah, that's what I'm always trying to do.

00:40:08 Merrily

Yeah, I also have this other question.

00:40:11 Merrily

Came out as you're talking about sort of people, you know, coming back to you for readings. Do they ever do sort of what somebody would do with an astrologer like they would say, hey, I'm having this particular situation at work or in my love life, what is my chart?

00:40:28 Merrily

Do you what does my chart say about that?

00:40:29 Merrily

Is it similar or?

00:40:31 Noelle

So sometimes yes, I have a lot of follow up sessions do end up looking I hate maybe this is because I'm not a sports person, but I'm not like the word coaching. Yes, yeah.

00:40:42 Noelle

Right.

00:40:44 Noelle

I'm like, what even is that? But it.

00:40:48 Noelle

Can look almost like coaching where, yeah.

00:40:51 Noelle

Or or that.

00:40:52 Noelle

Their people are bringing me a personal situation. They're in exactly where they're like. This is my. This is where I'm I am with my job or I'm in this relationship dynamic. Can you help me work this out through a human design lens? And then that's exactly what I'm doing. I'm using the chart as.

00:41:07 Noelle

Right.

00:41:14 Noelle

As a tool.

00:41:16 Noelle

To then be a thought partner for that person with working through that that particular thing, right. So having that sticky situation at work where they can't.

00:41:24 Noelle

Figure out if it's time.

00:41:26 Noelle

You know to stay or to quit.

00:41:30 Noelle

And then I through by looking at.

00:41:32 Noelle

Their chart then get.

00:41:32 Noelle

To ask them questions and.

00:41:37 Noelle

Help nudge them towards the correct answer for themselves or for them to figure it.

00:41:43 Noelle

Out it's not right.

00:41:44 Noelle

You know, this is what you should do.

00:41:47 Noelle

And.

00:41:48 Noelle

But again, I'm a projector and one of the.

00:41:51 Noelle

One of our primary.

00:41:53 Noelle

Gifts is guiding other people and asking the right questions. So I thought that really is what I'm doing most of the time, yeah.

00:42:01 Noelle

Yeah. Yeah. So there are people who.

00:42:03 Noelle

Come back again and again for that where they had an initial chart reading with me and then a follow up where they've gotten into a deeper layer.

00:42:12 Noelle

UM, and then they come back, you know?

00:42:15 Noelle

Every few months to talk through.

00:42:18 Noelle

Some particular situation of like oh, I'm I'm trying to work this out.

00:42:22 Merrily

Oh, very cool. I like that. It's sort of a a conversation and I think a lot of times it's people coming to their own conclusions, but they need sort of to think through a little bit of in, in the case of human design, like, OK, how does my design relate? Does that feel right for me?

00:42:40 Merrily

OK. Yeah. Sitting and talking with somebody is helpful.

00:42:43 Noelle

Yeah, it's often you know, somebody saying, well, I'm. I'm I'm wondering if this and I'm like, well, hang on.

00:42:48 Merrily

Yeah.

00:42:49 Noelle

Like let, let's break.

00:42:50 Noelle

This down does it feel like?

00:42:52 Noelle

This or does it?

00:42:52 Merrily

Hmm.

00:42:53 Noelle

Feel that are.

00:42:54 Noelle

You just, you know.

00:42:55 Noelle

And just probing what that thing is and.

00:42:59

Uhm.

00:43:00 Noelle

Yeah. And of course it's totally dependent on the situation.

00:43:04 Merrily

For sure. Yeah, very cool. And then I know also you are a parent and we talked a little bit about how you know if I was a parent, it would be wonderful to have like a little human manual for your child.

00:43:20 Noelle

Ah.

00:43:20 Merrily

And it seems like human design does.

00:43:23 Noelle

It really does. Before I talk about parenting.

00:43:24 Merrily

Yeah.

00:43:26 Noelle

Yeah, sort of an overview of oh, sorry. Yes, please. Yes, so, alright, so I, we've.

00:43:29 Noelle

Bad guys. OK, great.

00:43:35 Noelle

We've already said a lot about sort of what human design is. It's basically a.

00:43:40 Noelle

Map of your energy system. Right, not the human body with the sales system, with the nervous system, with the circulatory system, you have an energy system and it is unique to you, and human design gives you the map of that system. So it's the blueprint. And like I said, it also gives you the user manual. It gives you these basic.

00:44:03 Noelle

I want to see instructions but strategies for how to operate in the.

00:44:07 Noelle

World to best?

00:44:10 Noelle

Get your machine. Your particular unique machine to work.

00:44:14 Noelle

So I'll just give you a little overview of.

00:44:16 Noelle

The of the.

00:44:16 Noelle

Types, so then as I get into talking about parenting, maybe some of my anecdotes will make more sense. So.

00:44:25 Noelle

We have all these energy centers in our body that.

00:44:30 Noelle

Are people may recognize as being similar to chakras. Human design is rooted.

00:44:36 Noelle

In a number of ancient systems, the chakra system, astrology, the etching and the Kabbalah. And then there's some modern physics thrown in there too. But all of those, all of those systems have pieces that have been sort of integrated into human design. But human design is really it's.

00:44:56 Noelle

It's an entirely different thing. It's sort of a synthesis, and you don't think anyway.

00:45:03 Noelle

So based on these sort.

00:45:04 Noelle

Of energy centers that we have.

00:45:07 Noelle

Whether we receive energy from the world around us or whether we are consistently making energy in that place determines.

00:45:17 Noelle

What energy type we fall into? So there are 4 main energy types for people. We've got manifestors.

00:45:26 Noelle

Manifestors are about 9% of the population and Manifestors are the initiators on the planet. Manifestors are here to.

00:45:37 Noelle

What happens is they really they get these urges from outside of themselves. They're like these these big creative urges to start certain things, and these aren't ideas per se. They're not like mental constructs. They're just urges to do certain things, and their job is.

00:45:57 Noelle

To do those things.

00:45:58 Noelle

It's to start those things, but every human sign type has a strategy, which is the basic operating instruction. It's like the MO and the strategy of the manifester is to inform so.

00:46:13 Noelle

Manifesto gets a creative urge.

00:46:16 Noelle

Right. Like the universe is sort of communicating through them.

00:46:21 Noelle

They are supposed to go do that thing, but they're supposed to tell the people who are going to.

00:46:25 Noelle

Be impacted by it first.

00:46:27 Noelle

So.

00:46:30 Noelle

I have a actually a.

00:46:32 Noelle

Really great. My most perfect example of a manifester is my sister. I have one. I have two sisters, and one of them is a manifester, and when she was 3.

00:46:44 Noelle

We were driving in the car and she I think we passed the airport.

00:46:49 Noelle

And she said.

00:46:51 Noelle

I wanna go to France.

00:46:54 Noelle

And my parents said.

00:46:57 Noelle

How do you know what France is and?

00:47:00 Noelle

Like it was.

00:47:02 Noelle

Totally not a an idea. It was like they they did not know how she knew what France was. Right like.

00:47:08 Merrily

How she had heard about.

00:47:09 Noelle

France, we didn't live in France. We're not French. Yeah.

00:47:13 Noelle

And it was just like this.

00:47:15 Noelle

Thing from outside of her where she said.

00:47:16 Noelle

I want to go.

00:47:17 Noelle

To France and she said it.

00:47:18 Noelle

Out.

00:47:19 Noelle

Loud and.

00:47:22 Noelle

That really kicked.

00:47:24 Noelle

A whole chain of events into action and.

00:47:29 Noelle

Starting the next year, my family moved to France and we ended up living there on and off for many, many years, and all because the three-year old Manifester had an urge.

00:47:44 Noelle

And she informed everybody about it. And manifestors, they're like fire starters, right? They they say things and they have the potential to make those things into a reality. So they're full of this initiating power. And their strategy is to inform.

00:48:03 Noelle

Then we have generator.

00:48:05 Noelle

Generators are the dominant energy type on the planet. You're a manifesting generator, which is a subtype of generator, and when you combine those two together, it's about 70% of the population, so generators are full of big doing energy.

00:48:26 Noelle

Generators are the builders on the planet. They have literally built the world around us and they have big, creative, juicy life force energy.

00:48:36 Noelle

But your strategy is to respond. Generators are here to do the things that really light them up in a physical way. The things that their their gut is always leading them to things. Their gut is always communicating to them. Yes, this is something I'm going to make energy to do so.

00:48:56 Noelle

The strategy is to respond. Generators are.

00:48:59 Noelle

Here to wait for the.

00:49:00 Noelle

World to bring them things. And once they've had this positive physical reaction, yes, I want to do this thing.

00:49:08 Noelle

Then they get.

00:49:09 Noelle

To use their big huge doing energy this this big, it's like they have a motor inside of their body, right? It's like it's in the name. There's a generator.

00:49:17 Noelle

There's an energy pack, right?

00:49:18 Merrily

Mm-hmm.

00:49:21 Noelle

They then then get to use that energy to to do, to create. So in a really oversimplified version of things right, you've got a manifest.

00:49:29 Noelle

Master the Manifesters who go. Oh, I haven't heard. Hey, guys, this is what I want to do. And then the generators get to respond. They get to. Some of them are going to go. Oh, that's not interesting to me.

00:49:40 Noelle

And then there's going to be other generators.

00:49:43 Noelle

That go. Oh, whoa.

00:49:45 Noelle

That's amazing. That sounds so cool. I want to be part of that, and once they are really in their their correct energy, their correct alignment, they're going to bring that big doing energy and help make that reality happen. Help make that manifesto project happen.

00:50:00 Noelle

And then we've got projectors who are about 20% of the.

00:50:06 Noelle

And we're really the guides in the system we in that sort of fictional project where the Manifesters had an urge and then the generators have brought their big doing energy to the project.

00:50:20 Noelle

They would then come to a projector and say hey.

00:50:24 Noelle

Can you help us with this?

00:50:26 Noelle

We think you seem like you're good at this, can you?

00:50:28 Noelle

Fives.

00:50:30 Noelle

And then the projectors come in and they don't do the work themselves so much as advise other people on how.

00:50:36 Noelle

To do the.

00:50:37 Noelle

Work and how to best use their energy projectors don't have consistent sacral energy the way a generator does. They don't have that built in battery pack for us. Energy really ebbs and flows.

00:50:50 Noelle

And so that makes us particularly good at seeing how other people can use their energy. So we're the guys we understand the system and how to make things work better and work more efficiently. And we ask the right questions.

00:51:06 Noelle

But our strategy is to wait for the invitation.

00:51:10 Noelle

This one really.

00:51:10 Noelle

Trips people up when they first hear about it. It's very counter to what we are usually told. You know, in our you know, in the world waiting for the invitation because projectors don't have.

00:51:26 Noelle

Consistent access to big doing energy.

00:51:31 Noelle

We have to.

00:51:32 Noelle

We operate best when people invite us into things which.

00:51:35 Noelle

Means that we're.

00:51:36 Noelle

Not then wasting our energy. Our limited energy resources on people who aren't going to listen, right? So we're basically waiting for somebody to say to recognize us and say, hey, you're good at this.

00:51:49 Noelle

Right. Oh or.

00:51:51 Noelle

You seem like you know what to do here. Can you help?

00:51:54 Noelle

But can you tell me what?

00:51:56 Noelle

I think those are invitations, right? And then we get to say ohh is this the correct invitation for me? OK, yeah, it is. I'm going to share my gifts with you. But what often happens is projectors can fall into a trap of chasing after people trying to give unsolicited advice. And.

00:52:16 Noelle

It ends up being a big waste of our energy, so projectors are we're the newest type on the planet. There's I could go on forever.

00:52:25 Noelle

About projectors but.

00:52:26 Noelle

That's a brief overview and then you've got reflectors.

00:52:30 Noelle

Reflectors are relatively rare. They're just 1% of the population and they're the mirrors for society.

00:52:38 Noelle

Reflectors.

00:52:40 Noelle

Don't have any energy centers in their body that are defined, which means that they are absorbing energy from the world around them and reflecting it back. So they're like our Mira.

00:52:51 Noelle

So in an ideal world, the reflectors would really be in the center of society and we would be looking at them to see how well we're doing right. When the reflectors of the world are not doing well, like if a reflector in a community is.

00:53:06 Noelle

Sick and exhausted and underappreciated, that's a really good indication that their community is not doing well when the reflectors are.

00:53:16 Noelle

Interested and surprised and happy and delighted and doing well. It's a really good indication that their community is doing well. So in our sort of oversimplified version of the world where the manifesters are speaking an idea into existence, the generators are bringing their big building energy to make the thing.

00:53:36 Noelle

Up in the projectors are guiding the process. The reflectors are telling us how we've done afterwards.

00:53:43 Noelle

Yeah. So that's a bit of an overview of the system and then.

00:53:47 Merrily

Yeah, yeah.

00:53:49 Noelle

And then in terms.

00:53:49 Noelle

Of authority. That's another. The other big pillar. That's how we best make decisions. There are a number of different kinds of authority which depend on on your particular chart. Some people are designed to wait.

00:54:03 Noelle

Out their emotions. Just sort of see how.

00:54:05 Noelle

They feel about something overtime before making a decision.

00:54:08 Noelle

Other people are designed.

00:54:10

To.

00:54:11

You.

00:54:12 Noelle

Listen to their in the moment, gut feeling and that's how they make decisions. Other people are designed to listen to their in the moment intuitive hits that they get. There's lots more, but.

00:54:25 Noelle

Yeah, that's a bit of an overview, yeah.

00:54:27 Merrily

Oh yeah, great overview.

00:54:31 Noelle

So let's take it back to parenting. You were asking how does it influence parenting?

00:54:33

Yeah.

00:54:35 Merrily

Yeah.

00:54:37 Noelle

Yeah, it.

00:54:39 Noelle

It makes a.

00:54:40 Noelle

Huge difference in parenting and actually rower who said really explicitly this is for kids, right? Like it's great for us to have this as adults, right? We get to deconditioned, we get to sort of find our way back to ourselves. But the really.

00:54:57 Merrily

Right.

00:54:59 Noelle

Most.

00:55:00 Noelle

Putin's use of this is for people to have to share with their kids so that kids are raised with it, and there's a.

00:55:06 Noelle

Whole lot less.

00:55:06 Noelle

Deconditioning that has to happen as a result, right? So instead of that manifesting generator kid being told no, you can't quit soccer after three weeks and go do dance and then go to. It's like no. Like instead of giving that kid the message.

00:55:08 Noelle

Hmm.

00:55:21 Noelle

Quitting is a bad thing and you have to stick with it. That manifesting generator kid is just supported in changing their mind and changing their path and doing one thing for a while and then doing another and then another.

00:55:34 Noelle

And that's just.

00:55:34 Noelle

Celebrated from the beginning as opposed to, you know, labeled as.

00:55:40 Noelle

You know, chaotic or ADHD or whatever. Whatever it is. Yeah. So it makes a huge difference. And I've got three young kids and.

00:55:52 Noelle

It's a pretty big game changer. Yeah, all of my kids are very different. I have a generator, I have a manifester, and I have a projector.

00:56:02 Noelle

And so they're all have.

00:56:04 Noelle

Really different things going on and some of the.

00:56:07 Noelle

Things that are.

00:56:09 Noelle

The most useful are really the most basic.

00:56:12 Noelle

I have a generator she's designed to respond, so I give her choices. I give her things to respond to. I asked her yes or no questions and I give her options. I say this can be as basic as on a daily basis. Saying do you want this jacket or that jacket? Do you want to?

00:56:32 Noelle

Eat this for dinner, and when I say do you wanna eat? You know, do you wanna eat pasta?

00:56:38 Noelle

For dinner and she goes.

00:56:40 Noelle

That's her sacral response, right? Like she is doing it constantly.

00:56:44 Noelle

And so I asked her parent.

00:56:46 Noelle

Just know that until I give her the choices as opposed to saying.

00:56:49 Noelle

What do you want for dinner?

00:56:51 Noelle

And she hasn't no answer for that because.

00:56:53 Noelle

I haven't given.

00:56:53 Noelle

Her anything to respond to, right? But then I've got a manifestor who is not designed to respond. My manifester manifesters don't want to be messed with. They want to do their own thing. They want to be left in peace.

00:57:08 Noelle

They don't want to be, especially if they're in the middle of any kind of creative urge. They do not want to be bothered with questions. So if I didn't know that about one of my sons.

00:57:18 Noelle

It would feel really frustrating, I imagine to say, do you want this for dinner? Do.

00:57:23 Noelle

You want that for dinner and.

00:57:25 Noelle

Sometimes I do that and you just.

00:57:27 Noelle

He just doesn't respond. This urge to respond to things is just not native to him. So instead I asked him really open-ended questions. I might say, what do you want for dinner or more useful is the more oblique.

00:57:42 Noelle

Well, I'm informing him manifestors really like to be informed in addition to their need to inform others. I say OK, it's close to dinner time. I think I'd like to eat this.

00:57:56 Noelle

I'm wondering what you want to need, and sometimes he takes the bait for that. Sometimes he has.

00:58:01 Noelle

Something to OfferUp.

00:58:03 Noelle

Most of the time he doesn't, and he's just really in his own stream of doing things and so.

00:58:09 Noelle

Again, I don't.

00:58:11 Noelle

That's not a frustrating thing to me because I know.

00:58:13 Noelle

It's how he's.

00:58:14 Noelle

Built to operate.

00:58:16 Noelle

Instead of I could really it would be.

00:58:18 Noelle

So easy to look at this.

00:58:19 Noelle

Kid and be like hello.

00:58:21 Noelle

Are you listening?

00:58:22 Noelle

Like, why aren't you engaging with me?

00:58:24 Noelle

About this direct.

00:58:25 Noelle

Question and asking you and instead I'm like, oh, OK.

00:58:31 Noelle

This is normal. This is all for him. Yeah. So it can be.

00:58:37 Noelle

Things like that.

00:58:38 Noelle

Those are just really basic.

00:58:41 Noelle

Basic big pillars. It really changes to know who in the family has a defined emotional center or.

00:58:49 Noelle

Not this is like.

00:58:51 Noelle

A really big one.

00:58:53 Noelle

Some people in human design their charts. There's an emotional center and some people have it defined, which means they're sort of making emotional energy internally. Emotions are like a weather system in their body.

00:59:06 Noelle

They're on this sort of constant emotional wave, and for people with emotional authority.

00:59:13 Noelle

They they really need to learn to feel their feelings and just embrace that they are up sometimes and down sometimes.

00:59:21 Noelle

But for about half of the world, it's like that the other half of the world.

00:59:25 Noelle

Is has an open.

00:59:26 Noelle

Emotional center. An undefined emotional center, which means that I, you know, like that non emotional types. We'll say that's in air quotes, right. Everybody has feelings. It's not that people who are open emotionally can't feel.

00:59:41 Noelle

At all. But it's easy to refer to them as emotional versus non.

00:59:45 Noelle

So knowing who in your family is non emotional like the non emotional types in the world are absorbing emotions from the world around them, and it's quite an intense experience. These are people who are walking into the room and feeling the feelings of everybody in that room.

01:00:02 Noelle

And.

01:00:04 Noelle

Just knowing who in your family has emotional definition, who is emotional and who is not is a huge game changer in clarifying.

01:00:15 Noelle

Dynamics.

01:00:17 Noelle

I have a really funny story from like 3 days ago, my daughter and my my two of my kids are emotional. I'm also emotional. My partner is not emotional and.

01:00:30 Noelle

I had.

01:00:32 Noelle

Well, originally we've been together for a very long time together for oh gosh.

01:00:39 Noelle

16 years, something like that.

01:00:42 Noelle

I had never heard him yell in until my daughter turned 3.

01:00:48 Noelle

And started having like 3 year old tantrums.

01:00:52 Noelle

Literally, I think in 13, I think it was 13 years in 13 years, I had never. I'm getting my mouth all wrong. I don't know what year it is. I don't know how long we've been together. It was well over a decade. I literally never heard my husband yell and then my daughter turns 3. She starts having big emotional tantrums because she's a toddler, but also because she has emotional authority.

01:01:13 Noelle

And she's built for big swings of emotion.

01:01:17 Noelle

And for my husband, it was intensely difficult all of a sudden, for the first time, I hear him yelling.

01:01:23 Noelle

And it's like.

01:01:25 Noelle

He had such a hard time with that all.

01:01:28 Noelle

Of a sudden this.

01:01:30 Noelle

Person who was quite calm and collected in his natural state is feeling.

01:01:37 Noelle

Like whoa, what?

01:01:38 Noelle

This is not the kind of parent I thought it was going to be. Why?

01:01:40 Noelle

Am I why?

01:01:41 Noelle

Am I yelling like what is this? And it was so?

01:01:45 Noelle

Deeply useful to be able to say hey.

01:01:49 Noelle

This is harder for you.

01:01:51 Noelle

Than it is for me because I am built for big swings of emotion and you are not every time she has a tantrum, it's like he's getting hit by a Mack truck of feelings and that is an intense experience to have. He's absorbing this intense emotional energy and amplifying it, and it's not his. And it doesn't feel good and.

01:02:11 Noelle

So we built in systems where it's like, OK.

01:02:15 Noelle

Our daughter's having a big old tantrum. If he's the one who's sort of on the receiving end of it, he's going to need to go outside afterwards and be by himself and release that energy. But it really allowed.

01:02:27 Noelle

It's just an example of a place where he's was able to bypass.

01:02:31 Noelle

A story about.

01:02:33 Noelle

I'm this reactive.

01:02:36 Noelle

Parent with the bad temper and it's like no. Ohh you are a person who is absorbing feelings that are not yours. And they have to go somewhere. And when they're really intense they you're going to.

01:02:38 Merrily

Hmm.

01:02:46 Noelle

Explode them out of you because they don't belong there.

01:02:52 Noelle

And just recently, a few days ago.

01:02:55 Noelle

My daughter had a big meltdown. Big emotional thing.

01:02:59 Noelle

It was particularly impactful for my husband and the next day.

01:03:06 Noelle

I said, oh, you're still hanging on to this.

01:03:07 Noelle

I said you've got.

01:03:08 Noelle

To go for a run, and so he goes out for a run and she said, oh, you know, where's Papa? And I said oh.

01:03:13 Noelle

He's going on a run, she said. Why? And I said, well, he's.

01:03:16 Noelle

He had a hard day yesterday that was hard for him. He needs to. He needs to let those feelings out of he. He needs to let those emotions out of his body.

01:03:26 Noelle

And she looked at.

01:03:26 Noelle

Me like I was crazy and she said what?

01:03:30 Noelle

He still hasn't burnt off the feelings from yesterday and I was like, first of all, I love this language of burning off feelings. She came up with that, not me. And that's exactly it. I said no, he hasn't. He is really different from you, you and I and your brother.

01:03:40 Merrily

Yeah.

01:03:50 Noelle

It just kind of now they come and they go. But Papa, it's different. Feelings are different for him and he has to go burn them off. He has to.

01:03:57 Noelle

Let them go. And she was like, huh, OK.

01:04:01 Merrily

Love it.

01:04:02 Noelle

Yeah. So there's just sort of stories like endless well, stories like this, but.

01:04:08 Merrily

Ohh sure.

01:04:12 Noelle

I'm sort of feel like sometimes I'm a.

01:04:15 Noelle

I like have my clipboard in the corner like watching.

01:04:18 Noelle

My food being like.

01:04:19 Noelle

Uh, the general has provoked the manifester response.

01:04:20 Noelle

OK.

01:04:23 Noelle

To be left alone, like oh I can.

01:04:25 Noelle

See, you know. Ohh.

01:04:27 Noelle

This channel of playing out so clearly right now, so some of the parenting useful parenting information is.

01:04:30 Noelle

Mm-hmm.

01:04:35 Noelle

In the granular stuff too.

01:04:37 Noelle

Yeah, I know that one of my kids is particularly prone to emotional disappointment or an emotional wave related to expectations, and so I'll know to really prime that kid for what's going to happen and when their expectations might not be fulfilled.

01:04:58 Noelle

And very often that avoids a meltdown.

01:05:01 Noelle

UM.

01:05:03 Noelle

It also gets into.

01:05:04 Noelle

How people best digest food, which is so useful.

01:05:08 Noelle

For parents of young kids.

01:05:12 Noelle

Some people are designed there. There's a whole bunch of digestion types, but there are certain things that when I talk to parents, they go oh, wait a minute. Yeah, he does always want to do that. I thought that was so weird and then they can start encouraging that thing instead of going what, like, I some people are designed to.

01:05:32 Noelle

Eat food that is cold.

01:05:34 Merrily

Mm-hmm.

01:05:35 Noelle

Low body temperature.

01:05:37 Noelle

It's called cold thirst digestion. They need lots of cold liquids and they.

01:05:42 Noelle

They're meant to be cooled by food.

01:05:44

So.

01:05:45 Noelle

I had a parent who was like ohh.

01:05:47 Noelle

My kid is always wanting to eat cold pasta and I always thought that sounded so gross, so I'm like, no, please, like, let me heat.

01:05:53 Noelle

This up for you and I was like.

01:05:54 Noelle

No, stop heating it up, he.

01:05:56 Noelle

Really doesn't need it cold.

01:05:58 Merrily

MHM.

01:05:58 Noelle

Or, you know, parents who think, oh, yeah, they like your digestion type clothes.

01:06:03 Noelle

Yeah.

01:06:04 Noelle

Right. Parents who have closed taste digestion. Who?

01:06:09 Noelle

Can really learn.

01:06:10 Noelle

To tap into the natural rhythm of the seasonality of a person that clothes their open taste.

01:06:17 Noelle

Right. Somebody like?

01:06:18 Noelle

Do he's going to want to eat the same thing over.

01:06:20 Noelle

And over and over and over for.

01:06:21 Noelle

A while for sort of the.

01:06:23 Noelle

A season. So instead of being flummoxed when your kid who has close taste, who is eating a peanut butter sandwich every day for three months, all of a sudden won't touch one instead of.

01:06:24 Noelle

Yeah.

01:06:36 Noelle

Getting confused. You just got oh.

01:06:38 Noelle

Their season has changed.

01:06:40 Noelle

Right, right. And that kid, like, if you were a kid, merrily and you really didn't want to eat a certain food.

01:06:48 Noelle

I wouldn't brand you as picky a picky eater. There's a natural choosiness a natural pickiness to somebody with clothes or open taste, and you were very clear that you did not want to try the oyster. I would go OK she knows that oyster is not for her. That is people with clothes.

01:07:06 Noelle

Taste no before they.

01:07:07 Noelle

Put something in their mouth. Whether something is for them.

01:07:09 Noelle

Or not so.

01:07:10 Noelle

Instead of branding you as you know, non adventurous or something.

01:07:14 Noelle

I would just.

01:07:14 Noelle

Accept.

01:07:15 Noelle

It and know that that was your personal.

01:07:18 Noelle

You know yourself, right?

01:07:21 Noelle

It's just the notion.

01:07:21 Merrily

Yeah.

01:07:21 Noelle

Of parenting the kid you have.

01:07:25 Noelle

And not parenting the kid. You think?

01:07:27 Noelle

You should have.

01:07:28 Noelle

Yeah.

01:07:29 Merrily

Yeah, yeah.

01:07:31 Merrily

Yeah, that's that's some revolutionary thinking especially.

01:07:37 Merrily

For at least no, you know no shade to my parents. But like, you know, it's just seems like a step ladder of.

01:07:44 Merrily

Like the parents of your like trying to put you into like you should do the this this way instead of maybe more catering, catering or like in your situation with your children, you're like, you're really thoughtful about like, oh, that's just how that kid is.

01:08:05 Merrily

Yeah.

01:08:06 Merrily

We can sort of help identify what the.

01:08:10 Noelle

This is true for adults too, right?

01:08:13 Noelle

Is it like? Is this a bad habit of flying or is it like? Is this something I should try to release or is this something that is native to me?

01:08:15 Merrily

Right.

01:08:22 Merrily

Hmm.

01:08:23

It is a bad.

01:08:23 Noelle

Habit. Sometimes, like we picked up a lot of.

01:08:27 Noelle

Stuff. Yeah. It's not not everything, you.

01:08:29 Noelle

Do is like this gift that is totally in it.

01:08:32 Noelle

Yeah.

01:08:33 Noelle

Right, but you can't figure out which is which. That's where your human desire design chart can really help pinpoint it. And looking at a kid too, where it's like, oh.

01:08:43 Noelle

He has this tendency to do.

01:08:45 Noelle

This thing that might.

01:08:46 Noelle

Look weird to the outside world, but I totally correct for him.

01:08:51 Merrily

Right.

01:08:52 Noelle

But there are other things where it's like, oh.

01:08:54 Noelle

No, we got.

01:08:54 Merrily

To teach this kid differently. And that's not about a team design chart. That's just like a.

01:08:59 Merrily

Behavioral thing he picked up.

01:09:01 Merrily

Yeah.

01:09:03 Merrily

Yeah, I like that parsing of the of like the behavioral versus like, oh, this.

01:09:08 Merrily

Is just their.

01:09:08 Merrily

Chart showing through them. So that's really cool. Yeah. Yeah. Thanks for walking through the parenting thing there. Have you noticed any sort of themes at all? Cross profiles?

01:09:23 Merrily

And I guess the way I was thinking about this is like.

01:09:25 Noelle

Like.

01:09:27 Merrily

Do you notice?

01:09:28 Merrily

Like maybe a manifest? Or do they hold certain jobs or they attracted to certain jobs or certain vacation spots? I don't know. Something that was kind of what I was.

01:09:38 Merrily

Where I was thinking about that.

01:09:39 Noelle

You know.

01:09:42 Noelle

The easy there's a lot of ways to answer.

01:09:44 Noelle

This question right.

01:09:47 Noelle

The first answer is no. Is that you know there are so many points in your human design chart that you there's like thousands of pieces of information here and.

01:10:01 Noelle

I don't think there's. So there's everybody, really. Is this unique blend. So a manifester.

01:10:09 Noelle

Like, you know, one kind of an ego manifester is really different than an emotional manifester, and an ego manifester who has a defined crown and defined option is really different from a manifestor who's just emotions and throat. Then you get into the gates and.

01:10:25 Merrily

Mm-hmm.

01:10:28 Noelle

Right.

01:10:29 Noelle

There and there's there's so many variations, yeah.

01:10:34 Noelle

So on the.

01:10:34 Noelle

Surface no, but at the same time.

01:10:40 Noelle

Do I see themes that are interesting and notable that overlap over time? Yeah, like I've definitely had the experience of being with a client, and maybe they're describing a particular life situation and I.

01:10:56 Noelle

Oh wow, this is so reminiscent of that other manifesting generator client of mine, who also has A-35 profile, who also.

01:11:07 Noelle

Has you know these particular details going on?

01:11:10 Noelle

And how funny that they or who has this channel right?

01:11:13 Merrily

Yeah.

01:11:14 Noelle

Funny that they no surprise.

01:11:16 Noelle

They've got these over.

01:11:18

Laps.

01:11:20 Noelle

But in terms of jobs?

01:11:24 Noelle

No, I don't. There's nothing in human design that tells you what you can or can't do.

01:11:30 Noelle

And I think it's really important for people to know, especially as they're.

01:11:36 Noelle

Encountering this information on social media or on the Internet if you ever read a piece of human design.

01:11:44 Noelle

Details on something about a post about.

01:11:46 Noelle

Human design anything you feel.

01:11:49 Noelle

Limited like there's something that you should can do or can't do.

01:11:50

Hmm.

01:11:55 Merrily

Right.

01:11:56 Noelle

I would really question either the source of it or your interpretation of it.

01:12:05 Noelle

There's no, there's no job that a generator can't have, right? There's no job. The projector can't have. It's really about the mechanics that underlie how they do that job, right? So can a projector be with their variable energy that ebbs and flows and is inconsistent?

01:12:25 Noelle

Be the head of a corporation? Absolutely. Can they be president? Yeah. Barack Obama is a projector.

01:12:33 Noelle

Should they be working 12 hour days? No, that is not a healthy way for a projector to operate, so you know, can a projector be a photographer or an actor or a writer or a spiritual guide, or a a corporate lawyer? Yes.

01:12:52 Noelle

If those things can be correct for any type but.

01:12:54 Merrily

Mm-hmm.

01:12:57 Noelle

If a projector is doing those jobs where they're being run ragged and run into the ground because they're trying to act like a generator, who can work a 12 hour day when they're excited, that's going to be a recipe for burnout for the projector, right? Whereas any of those jobs being done by a generator.

01:13:16 Noelle

A generator is going to have much more.

01:13:17 Noelle

Capacity for the doing.

01:13:19 Noelle

Busy making energy. If they're really listening to their own system, they're listening to their gut and what they're excited about.

01:13:29 Noelle

A manifester is very likely going to.

01:13:32 Noelle

Start things and not want to finish them, right? So that's going to play out whatever job they're in where ideally they're doing things. They're in a position where they can use their initiating energy to start a project and then they have people to finish it off.

01:13:47 Noelle

For them, but whether?

01:13:48 Noelle

That means they're in one job for 20 years, or they're moving on.

01:13:53 Noelle

To a new job every time they sort of have finished their creative urge.

01:13:58 Noelle

It's totally dependent on the person.

01:14:00 Noelle

Right.

01:14:02 Noelle

So I guess what I'm saying is.

01:14:05 Noelle

There are a.

01:14:06 Noelle

Lot of themes but none of them are.

01:14:08 Noelle

So broad as to be about.

01:14:11 Noelle

Like this is this is what you're supposed to?

01:14:13 Noelle

Be doing in.

01:14:13 Noelle

Life it's really.

01:14:15 Noelle

About how how you're doing that thing in life and then, you know, getting into incarnation cross and life purpose.

01:14:25 Noelle

Even those things are not they don't point to what you should be doing. They're just going to point to a theme that's going to bubble up under whatever it is that you do right when you're living in alignment.

01:14:33 Merrily

Mm-hmm.

01:14:38 Merrily

Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Thanks for walking through that. It's it. I like the way it's you. Explain it. It's so very much of, like, situational and approachable. And I keep, I know I keep comparing to astrology, but I think I like again. I love astrology, and I love looking at the houses, but most people.

01:14:58 Merrily

I think just know their sunshine, which is fine, but I think they always think, oh, if I'm a if I'm a Pisces, I should be doing this field of work, right? Of course. You know, when you go into astrology and there's a different houses that changes, like you were saying with the with how human design there's well, there's actually these other things. I just think human design.

01:15:18 Merrily

It's a little it has. It's more like you for whatever reason, you could just look. It's more approachable and, like, makes sense in those ways than maybe astrology for the general population. Like, we talked about a little earlier. Yeah.

01:15:32 Noelle

It's really practical I.

01:15:32

About.

01:15:33 Noelle

Think also love astrology and.

01:15:35 Merrily

Yeah.

01:15:36 Noelle

I I think it's so cool and.

01:15:40 Noelle

And interesting and revelatory. Sometimes it doesn't feel.

01:15:47 Merrily

Yes. Yeah.

01:15:48 Noelle

Whereas human design is really just giving you.

01:15:52 Noelle

The help to say how do I operate this right and it doesn't. There are transit in human design, right? So so on any given day we could talk about where the planets are moving and how the transits are affecting us. And that does have an influence on.

01:16:13 Noelle

Like you know, or today is 1/3 line day, today is a fourth line day. There are different energies you can work with in that day, but ultimately like the most important thing about human design is just getting to know your strategy and your authority, right? How am I supposed that's supposed to make decisions? Am I listening to my gut?

01:16:27

Yeah.

01:16:32 Noelle

For all you generators out there right. Am I am I doing things that my body has given me that ohh feeling like did I get an ohh feeling yeah committed to it anyways because I thought I should.

01:16:45 Noelle

If all of.

01:16:47 Noelle

As in terms of themes for everybody, if if there was one message for everybody in human design, it's get out of your head, get into your body.

01:16:55 Merrily

Mm-hmm.

01:16:56 Noelle

We're really taught that they're.

01:16:59 Noelle

That the mind is running the show and that it should be running the show.

01:17:02 Noelle

Mostly.

01:17:02 Noelle

Yes.

01:17:04 Noelle

Right. Your mind is the one making decisions.

01:17:07 Noelle

And according to human design, no, it's it's not, it's your.

01:17:13 Noelle

Mind is supposed to be.

01:17:14 Noelle

The passenger your mind thinks it's running the.

01:17:16 Noelle

Show your own feet that it's driving the car.

01:17:16 Merrily

Yes.

01:17:19 Noelle

Yeah, but it's your job to go. Nope. You're in the passenger seat, so look out the window. Mind. Get creative ideas.

01:17:27

OK.

01:17:27 Noelle

Your eyes get excited.

01:17:29 Noelle

About what you're seeing. Yeah, but your mind is not here to say. Turn left. Turn right. Like that information lives in your body and.

01:17:39 Noelle

When you start making decisions.

01:17:41 Noelle

Tapping into the right spot.

01:17:45 Noelle

Then.

01:17:47 Noelle

That's where your life.

01:17:48 Noelle

Really starts to change.

01:17:49 Merrily

Yeah, for sure.

01:17:51 Noelle

Yeah.

01:17:53 Merrily

Well, we're definitely, you know, we covered so much stuff and I'm so excited about it. Definitely we're wrapping up, but I know you kind of already shared some little bits and pieces of client stories, but did you have like a particular 1 you wanted to share or?

01:18:07 Noelle

You know, I don't have one. I have, I.

01:18:10 Noelle

I have so many I my favorite.

01:18:11 Merrily

Know, I know.

01:18:16 Noelle

One of my favorite things to do is.

01:18:19 Noelle

Talk about the anecdotes in human design. I think a lot of people really benefit from hearing how chart mechanics play out in the real world, right where like.

01:18:32 Noelle

You know the the manifesting generator who has this experience and you see this playing out in this way or the way this channel plays out or this dynamic between people plays out.

01:18:43 Noelle

So I I.

01:18:44 Noelle

Don't have one story I want to share.

01:18:47 Merrily

But I do.

01:18:50 Noelle

I guess what feels the most.

01:18:53 Noelle

Useful to me or sort of makes me the happiest is when I hear from people.

01:19:01 Noelle

Over and over again, just if they trust themselves right, like I just heard this recently from a client who made some huge life changes after, you know, getting a reading after about two years later just was sort of put on the path to really harnessing their own intuitive trust.

01:19:22 Noelle

In their decision making, right and.

01:19:24 Noelle

It was just.

01:19:25 Noelle

The change that happened for this person after really getting out of their head and letting themselves trust their gut and then over the course of a few years coming back and saying whoa, you know, I did these. I made these big moves because I trusted. I trusted my decision making and that was the way that I wasn't trusting myself.

01:19:46 Noelle

4.

01:19:47 Merrily

Hmm.

01:19:48 Noelle

And you know, I hear that and.

01:19:50 Noelle

I'm like, yes, I want everyone to do that.

01:19:55 Noelle

Just and you know that's the best feeling. It's the.

01:19:57 Noelle

Best feeling I have that in myself and and I I just feel the huge excitement for other people when they access that.

01:19:57 Merrily

Yeah.

01:20:05 Merrily

Oh, I love that that's such a great thing to contribute to. Yay. So do you have any either projects or events or anything that you want to let us know about?

01:20:17 Noelle

You know, I'm at no events at the moment. I'm I'm really just doing readings and.

01:20:24 Noelle

Talking with clients all the time, I did.

01:20:27 Noelle

Just.

01:20:29 Noelle

Start to put myself on social media.

01:20:31 Merrily

Ohh yeah yeah.

01:20:34 Noelle

I'm I'm sort of famously.

01:20:37 Noelle

Backwards when it comes to technology and.

01:20:40 Merrily

Mm-hmm.

01:20:42 Noelle

Like I couldn't.

01:20:44 Noelle

My story of that today is instead of.

01:20:47 Merrily

Of.

01:20:48 Noelle

Being able to configure my computer to not accept FaceTime calls, I just had to text my whole family and say don't call me. I can't figure out how to do this so just don't call me OK.

01:20:56 Merrily

Don't do it. Yeah.

01:21:01 Merrily

Love it.

01:21:05 Noelle

Anyway, so I'm I'm very I'm slow, I'm slow on the the social media game, but I just put myself on TikTok and yeah, and I I'm mostly talking. It's mostly sharing anecdote. It's mostly sharing stories about.

01:21:11

Oh.

01:21:20 Noelle

All right, I saw this play out in this way today. Or here's this thing that I'm noticing. Yeah. And a lot of those, a lot of parenting anecdotes as I as I.

01:21:32 Noelle

Observe them, but yes, I'm Noelle O'Reilly on TikTok. Yeah, just my full name. I don't have an Instagram yet, but or I do, but there's nothing on there. Follow along and eventually I'll follow. Yeah, it's Noelle. Human design. Yeah. Eventually there'll be something there, but yeah. For the time being.

01:21:44 Merrily

It will be something maybe.

01:21:52 Noelle

And really just meeting with clients.

01:21:54 Merrily

OK, wonderful. Yeah, definitely all of your information will be in this show notes. Everybody check it out and do consider Noelle doing your reading with Noelle because she was amazing. So yes, so finally, I always everybody always shares wonderful wisdom through our talks. So then.

01:21:55 Noelle

Yeah.

01:22:14 Merrily

But then I ask again, do you have any words of wisdom you would like to leave us with today?

01:22:22 Noelle

Wow, that's a good question. I didn't think.

01:22:25 Noelle

About this I had of time.

01:22:31 Noelle

I guess really my.

01:22:35 Noelle

This is sort.

01:22:35 Noelle

Of saying what I've just been saying for this whole bit, but it's saying it again is that?

01:22:42 Noelle

You're different from everybody else, and this maybe sounds trite, like.

01:22:48 Noelle

We're all unique snowflakes, but it's true and.

01:22:51 Merrily

Yeah.

01:22:55 Noelle

When you start.

01:22:57 Noelle

Accepting that, I mean, like, really accepting that you are different.

01:23:02 Noelle

And you operate differently from other people in the world.

01:23:10 Noelle

That's really life changing and.

01:23:14 Noelle

I think you know before.

01:23:15 Noelle

Human design why human design was so?

01:23:19 Noelle

Impactful for me is like I knew that I knew that in my head, right. And I knew that I was. I was raised being told I was different and wonderful and, you know, whatever.

01:23:32 Merrily

But there were still just.

01:23:33 Noelle

Big parts of me that didn't.

01:23:35 Noelle

Know that like as I'm talking and saying I knew it in my head, but I didn't know it in my body on some.

01:23:41 Noelle

Level, right, didn't think.

01:23:43 Noelle

There were so many.

01:23:44 Noelle

Parts of the way that I am.

01:23:47 Noelle

That I was, I knew, were me.

01:23:51 Noelle

But I was still just.

01:23:52 Noelle

Fighting them and thinking.

01:23:55 Noelle

I wish this wasn't me, I.

01:23:56 Noelle

Wish I was just.

01:23:57 Noelle

Operated in this other way, I wish I could be more productive and more, you know, move faster and be this way and that way and.

01:24:11 Noelle

Leading into my human design, really. Just let me accept it.

01:24:17 Noelle

And so I guess my words of wisdom are just that you're different, and that's wonderful.

01:24:23 Noelle

So be yourself and be free. And if you need some help to do that human.

01:24:29 Noelle

Design is great.

01:24:30 Noelle

If it speaks to you, it speaks to you.

01:24:31 Noelle

Right.

01:24:33 Noelle

And maybe there are other tools that let you do that and whatever. Whatever tools.

01:24:38 Noelle

You are drawn to go.

01:24:40 Noelle

You know, follow those like you are your own authority.

01:24:45 Merrily

Beautifully said, you know, I think everybody needs their reminder over and over again. So it's great over and over. Yes, I love it.

01:24:52 Noelle

Over and.

01:24:54 Noelle

Again, over and over again.

01:24:56 Noelle

Absolutely.

Thank you, Marie. This is so wonderful. And actually this, by the way, was a a wonderful little human design example of I'm a projector. I'm here to wait for the invitation.
