Unshakeable with Human Design - A Human Design For Business Podcast

Have you been feeling a restless pull toward change — but can't quite tell what's shifting beneath the surface?    In this month's Human Design and astrology conversation, Nicole and Christina explore the energetic transition from Libra's balance to Scorpio's depth, and what it means to navigate the unknown with grace. Together, they unpack the power of "inactive prep time" — that sacred pause where transformation brews quietly before it's ready to emerge.   As they reflect on their own experiences through Libra season, they share how waiting, stillness, and self-trust become catalysts for aligned action. Nicole opens up about resisting the urge to rush forward and how clarity finally arrives when you let the process unfold naturally. Christina offers her insights on holding steady during times of emotional intensity and learning to feel safe in stability.   Throughout the conversation, they explore the key Human Design and astrological themes shaping November — from Gate 63's invitation to question with purpose, to the activation of Gate 34's personal power, to the creative spark of the 1/8 channel. These shifting energies ask us to release control, trust our timing, and remember that true creation often begins long before the moment of action.   If you've sensed something stirring within you but haven't yet found the form it wants to take, this episode will remind you that the waiting isn't wasted — it's where your next evolution is already taking shape.   Listen now!   Get the monthly calendar that shows you which transits are happening when at nicolelaino.com/transit Register for the upcoming free 5-day masterclass, The Authority Accelerator in HD: Create Your Million Dollar Message in 5 Days Using Human Design at https://www.nicolelaino.com/masterclass   Connect with Christina: Visit her website at https://www.lunation.live/ Follow her on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/lunation.live  Check out her YouTube Channel at: https://www.youtube.com/@Lunascopes Be sure to visit nicolelaino.com/podcastlinks for all of the current links to events, freebies, and more!

Have you ever felt like you were doing everything "right," yet somehow lost touch with your own power? In this honest and intimate episode, Nicole shares how a season of confusion and overthinking pulled her off course — and how Human Design became the exact framework that helped her find her way back. She opens up about the subtle ways we give our power away as entrepreneurs, from chasing other people's strategies to letting comparison sneak in, even when things seem to be going well on the outside. Through her own experience, Nicole reveals what happens when we mistake doing more for creating growth, and how quickly we can lose the clarity and confidence that once felt unshakable. You'll hear how she recognized the signs of misalignment, the practices that brought her back to center, and the mindset shifts that now guide her decisions and success. This episode is a reminder that your most powerful path isn't about finding the way — it's about finding your way, and trusting it fully. Listen now!

Have you ever wondered why you keep attracting the same kinds of relationships—or why certain dynamics show up in both your personal life and your business?    In this episode, Nicole sits down with Jessica Baum, a 2/4 Pure Generator, licensed psychotherapist, and bestselling author of Anxiously Attached, to unpack the hidden patterns that shape how we connect, love, and lead. Jessica shares insights from her upcoming book Safe: An Attachment-Informed Guide to Building More Secure Relationships, and together they explore how understanding attachment theory can become a roadmap for healing and creating more fulfilling connections. Through heartfelt stories and clear explanations, Jessica breaks down the four main attachment styles—secure, anxious, avoidant, and disorganized—and shows how these early patterns influence our adult lives. She explains how attachment wounds live in the body, shaping our nervous system responses and influencing the way we handle love, conflict, and even success. Nicole brings in the lens of Human Design, connecting the energetic and emotional aspects of our patterns to how we show up in our relationships and careers. Jessica and Nicole also talk about what true healing looks like: learning to feel safe in your body, finding supportive relationships that help regulate your nervous system, and honoring the coping mechanisms—or "protectors"—that once kept you safe.  If you've ever felt stuck in repeating cycles or longed for more ease in your relationships, this episode will help you see that transformation is possible.  Listen now!   Learn more about your Human Design and get your full chart for free at https://www.nicolelaino.com/chart   To download the Secret Podcast on how to Build & Scale Your Business with Human Design click here: nicolelaino.com/secretpodcast  Connect with Jessica Baum: - Visit her website at https://jessicabaumlmhc.com/interview  - Follow Jessica Baum on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/@beselffull  - ​​Don't miss Jessica Baum's upcoming release, Safe: An Attachment-Informed Guide to Building More Secure Relationships, out October 28.

What happens after you survive the unimaginable — and life expects you to simply move on? In this episode, 1/3 Emotional Projector Jessica Buchanan shares how being kidnapped and held hostage in Somalia became only the beginning of her true story. She opens up about the long and often unseen process of "surviving survival" — rebuilding identity, trust, and purpose after trauma — and how she transformed that journey into a mission to help others do the same. Jessica reveals how learning her Human Design as a Projector gave her permission to rest, release the pressure to hustle, and finally trust her own rhythm. Together, she and Nicole explore what it means to stop forcing outcomes, let life unfold through alignment, and find the courage to redefine success on your own terms. This conversation is equal parts raw and empowering — a reminder that healing isn't about going back to who you were, but about honoring who you've become.

Nicole shares her own experience of hearing that inner pull, resisting it, and eventually learning how to follow it with courage.

This conversation is for anyone who's ever asked, "What am I here to do?" — and is ready to start answering that question in a whole new way. By the end, you'll see that your purpose isn't something far away or hidden; it's already calling. You just have to pick up. Listen now!

What does it really mean to live fully expressed — even when fear shows up at every turn? In this conversation, Judi Holler shares her journey of embracing self-expression, stepping into her power, and transforming fear into fuel. From her roots in improv and professional speaking to the moment she boldly claimed the title of "self-expressionist," Judi reveals the courage it takes to pursue a path that defies expectations. How do you learn to dance with fear instead of letting it hold you back? Together, we explore the idea that fear isn't something to conquer but something to befriend, and how building a "tolerance for pain" often separates those who quit too soon from those who find lasting success. Judi also opens up about how Human Design has supported her in recognizing her own energy and honoring her unique way of leading and creating. Ever wondered what it feels like to stop playing small and own the fullness of who you are? Judi takes us behind the scenes of her new book Holler at Your Dreams — part oracle, part creative manifesto — and shares the story of a pivotal moment with IBM that gave her the confidence to stop toning herself down and start showing up bigger and bolder. If you've been craving a reminder that the most powerful strategy is simply being yourself, this episode will leave you inspired to chase your own dreams with courage, clarity, and unapologetic authenticity.

Have you ever felt like the world's best-kept secret—even though you know you're good at what you do? In this episode, Nicole unpacks the concept of energetic authority and why it's often the missing piece for entrepreneurs who have the credentials, testimonials, and expertise but still struggle to be seen. You'll discover how Human Design provides a framework for understanding your energy, while deconditioning and nervous system work help you embody it fully. Nicole explains how owning your energy with confidence creates the magnetism that draws people in—not because of what's on paper, but because of the presence you bring. She also shares why entrepreneurs often get stuck by reaching for the wrong tools—using strategy when the real issue is energetic, or relying only on spiritual practices when strategy is required. The key lies in knowing how to balance both, and Nicole reveals how to identify what's truly needed in the moment. If you've ever looked at someone with less experience and wondered why they're attracting more clients, this episode will open your eyes. You'll leave with a deeper understanding of what it takes to step into your own energetic authority and create success that feels sustainable, magnetic, and aligned.

What if your brand wasn't something you built, but something you naturally embodied? In this episode, Nicole shares how Human Design can reshape the way you approach business and branding. Rather than relying on strategies that focus only on what you do, she explains why the most powerful shift happens when you step fully into who you are. At the heart of the conversation is the Conscious Sun—your guiding light and the key to understanding your purpose. Nicole unpacks how this placement influences the story you're here to live, and how it becomes the foundation for an authentic brand that grows as you grow. Through analogies, real-life examples, and personal reflections, you'll see how the Conscious Sun can unlock clarity about your direction and bring greater confidence to how you show up. It's not about forcing a brand into existence, but allowing it to evolve alongside your own transformation. If you've been looking for a way to align your business with your deeper purpose—and create a brand that feels magnetic and true to you—this conversation will show you where to start.

Have you ever wondered why goal setting feels off or why chasing success leaves you more drained than fulfilled? This episode unpacks the role of the ego center in Human Design—also known as the will or heart center—and how it impacts your relationship with goals, achievement, and prosperity. Through the lens of a client's powerful question, you'll discover what it means to have an open or undefined ego and why traditional approaches to motivation and money don't always work for everyone. Nicole explains how the ego center is connected to willpower and material success, and why trying to prove yourself or force results often backfires. If you've struggled with consistency, felt pressured by "shoulds," or wondered whether you can be successful without chasing external validation, this conversation will offer clarity and a new perspective. You'll walk away with insight into how alignment—not ego—leads to sustainable success. By the end, you'll understand why honoring your unique design is the key to reaching your goals with more ease, freedom, and fulfillment.

What if the key to making Human Design work for you wasn't about getting more answers, but about shifting the way you approach the whole system?  In this episode, Nicole responds to one of the most common questions she gets from entrepreneurs: "What's the number one thing I should know about Human Design?" Her response may not be what you expect—and it could change the way you think about your chart forever. Rather than focusing on quick fixes or rigid rules, Nicole reveals two core practices that create real breakthroughs. She explains why so many people unknowingly stall their own progress, how to stop forcing results, and the perspective shift that makes Human Design feel lighter, more inspiring, and far more effective. You'll hear the surprising reason some people move quickly with this system while others feel stuck, and how to open yourself to insights that naturally move you forward. These are the tools Nicole wishes every client had from the start, because they make the process more enjoyable and lead to lasting success. If you've been feeling impatient, frustrated, or unsure of how to work with your chart, this episode offers the clarity and encouragement you need to reset your approach and finally experience the transformation you've been hoping for.
