Living Your Design ·

2025/12/11

In this final episode of 2025, we zoom out from the individual lessons and explore the deeper orientation, mindset, and ongoing practice required to genuinely live your design. Rather than treating Human Design as a rule-book, this episode re-frames it as a living experiment, one that unfolds uniquely through your body, your timing, and your awareness.Kelsey offers five core considerations for your ongoing deconditioning journey: reclaiming your power, holding the system lightly, understanding the

37. The Not-Self Hierarchy

Living Your Design ·

2025/12/09

In this episode, Kelsey introduces the deconditioning tool, the Not-Self Hierarchy, which is a framework for understanding the many ways the mind attempts to take over our lives and pull us away from our true authority. Rather than seeing the “not-self” as something bad or wrong, this episode reframes it as an inevitable mental process that becomes deeply informative when observed with awareness.The Not-Self Hierarchy illuminates how the deconditioning journey invites us to hold everything lightly,

36. Lunar Authority

Living Your Design ·

2025/12/04

In this episode, Kesley completes the exploration of Inner Authority with Lunar Authority, which is the unique decision making process for Reflectors. Because Reflectors have no consistent inner life force, their authority comes from a profound relationship with the lunar cycle, the 28-day movement of the moon through all 64 gates in the Bodygraph. This episode unpacks how Reflectors gain clarity through the repeated pattern of definition created by the moon, how dormant potentials are activated

35. Environmental Authority

Living Your Design ·

2025/12/02

In this episode Kelsey explores Environmental Authority, also known as Mental Authority, which is the unique decision making process for Mental Projectors, who have no defined centers below the Throat. Environmental Authority is not about inner sensations, emotional waves, gut responses, or instinct. Instead, it is a relational, sensory, and environmental process. These individuals gain clarity by observing how they experience themselves in different environments and in the presence of different

34. Self-Projected Authority

Living Your Design ·

2025/11/27

In this episode Kelsey dives into Self-Projected Authority, the inner authority rooted in the G Center, the home of identity, direction, love, and the Magnetic Monopole. This rare authority belongs exclusively to Projectors who have a defined G-Center connected to the Throat (and no definition below the G-center) allowing their true self to be expressed directly through their voice and life direction. Self-Projected Authority is all about resonance: hearing the truth of who you are and where you’re

33. Ego Authority

Living Your Design ·

2025/11/25

In this episode Kelsey dives into Ego Authority, which is an inner authority rooted in the Heart/Ego center. The Ego is motor that fuels willpower, commitment, value, and material world engagement. Ego Authority is rare and deeply misunderstood, because it is not mental, emotional, or intuitive but rather the raw energy of the will itself.For ego beings, truth lies in whether the heart is genuinely in something and nothing can override that inner reality. Kelsey explores the two expressions of Ego

32. Splenic Authority

Living Your Design ·

2025/11/20

In this episode Kelsey does a deep dive into Splenic Authority, the oldest and most primal form of awareness in the Human Design system. The Spleen governs instinct, intuition, survival, health, and wellbeing, and speaks in quiet, instantaneous hits that arise and disappear in the present moment.Unlike Emotional or Sacral Authority, Splenic Authority is not about fuel, because the Spleen is not a motor center. Instead, Splenic Authority is a subtle, somatic knowing that often makes no sense to the

31. Sacral Authority

Living Your Design ·

2025/11/18

In this episode, Kelsey dives into Sacral Authority, which is the pure, non-negotiable life force of the Pure Generator being. As the most powerful motor in the Human Design system, the Sacral center provides sustainable energy, creative vitality, and a built-in guidance system that speaks through the body. This episode clarifies what it means to be a non-emotional Generator and how the Sacral communicates through sound and sensation. We’ll also look at how the Sacral filters conditioning, provides

30. Emotional Authority

Living Your Design ·

2025/11/13

In this episode Kelsey dives into exploring Emotional Authority, the most common of all Inner Authorities in Human Design. Governed by the Emotional Solar Plexus, which is both a motor and awareness center, Emotional Authority is the energetic and experiential process through which emotional beings arrive at clarity over time.Kelsey examines how the emotional wave functions as a natural cycle of highs, lows, and neutrality and why there is “no truth in the now.” Emotional Authority teaches us

29. Intro to Authority As Your Anchor & Filter

Living Your Design ·

2025/11/11

In this episode, we begin exploring Inner Authority, which is the foundation of decision making in Human Design. Authority is the anchor and filter through which we experience life’s conditions and conditioning. It’s not something we develop or have to "figure out." It’s the inherent intelligence of the body, always operating beneath the mind’s commentary.Kelsey examines the difference between conditioning and authority, how authority arises from our defined centers, and why the mind is never the

In this episode, we continue our 2 part exploration of the Projector through diving into the experience of recognition, success, bitterness, and guidance.

As a Manifestor herself, Kelsey dives into the misconceptions of informing so you can see your Strategy not as a way to control you, but as a practical tool for reducing resistance and honoring the Manifestor’s inherent independence.This episode also unpacks the emotional experience of anger and the true
