Show Summary:
Ever heard the phrase “delulu is the solulu?” On this episode of Midlife by (Human) Design, Lori breaks down what it really means for midlife women who are ready to shift timelines, collapse old versions of themselves, and actually manifest lives that feel aligned.
Lori dives into the energetic and Human Design foundations of manifestation--especially in this moment of global transition as we move from the Cross of Planning into the Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix. She explores why the “future you” already exists, how to access her, and why embodiment matters more than forcing high vibes.
You’ll learn why manifestation isn’t about pretending you’re happy all the time, and why even during your emotional lows, you can still call in what you desire. Lori shares practical, playful delulu techniques, how to handle your nervous system when good things show up, and how the current Gate 14 transit amplifies the creative and sacral energy available to fuel your dreams.
This episode is an invitation to soften, experiment, and embody the version of you who already has what you’re calling in, one tiny aligned action at a time.
Takeaways:
-
The timeline shift happening collectively — and why it matters for manifesting in midlife
-
How to embody your “future you” without bypassing your real human emotional waves
-
The role your nervous system plays in receiving the good stuff
-
Simple delulu practices that help collapse the gap between desire and reality
-
Why this week’s Gate 14 solar transit amplifies your creativity and abundance
