That Projector Life
That Projector Life is the podcast for Human Design Projectors who are ready to learn and live their unique design. Hosted by 1/3 Self-Projected Projector Ardelia Lee, this show is all about exploring what it means to be a Projector from a practical standpoint. You're invited to listen in and dive into the foundations of the Human Design system - along with uniquely Projector topics like waiting for the invitation and recognition. We'll also cover how you can apply what you're learning to your life (practical application is the name of the game).

204. Thriving as a Splenic Projector With Alex Mufson
In this episode of That Projector Life, I'm joined by Splenic Projector Alex Mufson. Alex is a seasoned entrepreneur, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and founder and CEO of her latest company, Aspen Growth Coaching (AGC). We start off by talking about Splenic Authority, and Alex shares great insights and tangible action steps for Splenic Projectors who are new to their authority. (And if you don't have a Splenic Authority, this is a great way to begin understanding how it operates.) Alex also talked about running her business as a Splenic Projector and the flow that she's found in listening to her energy - including her defined Heart Center. (Did you know that the Heart Center (a.k.a. the Ego Center) is getting a little rebrand? Alex mentions that here - and helps us understand and love on this center a bit more.) This was such a down-to-earth conversation about Human Design, business, and how to work with your design in your own way. Don't forget to connect with Alex using her links below!

203. The 3 Unique Stages of Understanding Human Design

203. The 3 Unique Stages of Understanding Human Design
In this episode of That Projector Life, we're walking through the 3 stages people move through when they learn about the Human Design system. (And of course, like most things in life, this can be a non-linear journey. And just like Human Design, there are many layers to these stages.) So we'll look at how our understanding of the system changes - and how our approach to it changes as well - from beginning to end. When we start with the system, we'll all about the facts and figures. We want to know all the things and we want to know NOW. There also tends to be a hint of doctrine here - we follow what other people say religiously. But over time, as we become more comfortable with the system and understand our energy better, we tend to move past the "just the facts" approach and step into the second and third stages - both marked by unique challenges and understandings.

202. How the Tribe Works in Human Design
In this episode, we explore the energy of the Tribe, the Tribal channels, and how they all work together to fulfill the Tribe's purpose: resources and survival. We'll start out by situating the Tribe in the larger picture of humanity as a whole and talk about the Tribe's purpose as it relates to the rest of the world. Then we'll move into each of the Tribal channels and place its energy in the larger story of how the Tribe itself functions. The channels play off of and support each other, and we'll trace the paths of the Ego Circuit and Defense Circuit as we explore the Tribe's energy. Finally, we'll spend some time talking about the highest expression of Tribal energy as well as the lowest expression of Tribal energy, touching on how and where the Tribe grapples with the not-self. The not-self is something definitely worth exploring, as we see a lot of Tribal not-self show up in our world. Ready to dive into the inner workings of the Tribe? Listen to the episode!

200. Why Center Connections Matter in Human Design

200. Why Center Connections Matter in Human Design
Have you ever looked at your channels and thought about what they mean for the energy flow in your chart? We're doing just that in this episode! We'll look at all the different center connections in Human Design (and there are a lot) and talk about how they work and what it means to have one connection over another. For example, we'll talk about the impact of having an Identity to Spleen connection and how that differs slightly from an Identity to Sacral or an Identity to Throat connection. Because each center pairing is different - when we pair center, we bring the themes of those two energies together. The specific channels that you have are your own special blend of those two centers. In this episode, we'll stick more to the general information, but this is a great building block for looking into your channels. We'll look at how the themes of the energy pair between centers and how that impacts you. Episode Links and start working with your energy in just 12 days! (Also, it's free!)

200. Exploring the Depths of Emotional Authority With Kristin Quattlebaum
On top of that, I'm so excited to welcome back Kristin Quattlebaum to That Projector Life. Kristin is a 1/3 Emotional Projector, and in this episode, she's sharing how she's learned and grown since we last spoke with her. (I highly recommend checking out Kristin's first TPL interview. It's episode 85.) We talk a lot about emotions and emotional healing as Kristin shares about her approach to working with her emotional authority. She also walks us through the idea of a secondary authority and how that influenced her ability to connect with and work with her emotional authority. This was such a fun episode, and Kristin shares so much insight into the workings of the Solar Plexus and her own experiences with it. If you or someone you know is an emotional authority, I definitely recommend giving this episode a listen and reflecting on the power of emotions. And even if you're like me and don't have an emotional authority, Kristin's approach to emotions is definitely one worth reflecting on - because we do experience emotions.

199. Exploring Melancholy and Mutation in Human Design
Have you ever experienced melancholy? You know - that feeling of sadness for no identifiable reason. Or maybe you're there right now and want to know how to move through it. We're talking about all of that and more in this episode of That Projector Life. Melancholy is a natural part of having Individual circuitry in Human Design. And while it can be frustrating to experience, it's an important part of an Individual's role. Individuals are here to push humanity to mutate, and melancholy is a big part of that. (It's similar to the April showers bring May flowers thing.) We'll talk about how to move through melancholy and its potential connection to the shadow of your gates. (And that can offer clues to how to deal with the melancholy.) Listen to the episode and get started reflecting on how melancholy shows up in your life.

198. How to Recognize Yourself
We're kicking off 2024 with an episode all about recognizing yourself. I often get asked how Projectors can encourage others to recognize them (and we talk about this question and its rather difficult answer in this episode). But I rarely (until just recently) get asked how Projectors can recognize themselves. So we're taking a dive into Projector recognition from the perspective of the self - as in recognizing yourself. Because Projectors can definitely recognize themselves, and I certainly encourage Projectors to do so. (I mean, if you don't recognize yourself, can you really live your design?) We'll talk about what it mean to recognize yourself, what that looks like, and how you can go about actually recognizing your energy. And keep in mind that this journey is highly personal, and how you feel recognized may differ from how I feel recognized. I do offer two different examples from my own experience recently of how I was able to recognize myself - in both a joyful situation and a more melancholic one. So listen into the episode and let me know your thoughts. I would love to hear what recognizing yourself looks like for you! Check out That Projector Life on Patreon!

197. A Refresh Is Coming Soon!
That Projector Life is finally back with a new episode! And in this episode, we're diving into where I've been, what I'm doing now, and the refresh that's on the horizon! Look - things were rough in October. Eclipse season hit hard, and it took two months to recover. In that time, I reflected and journaled a lot, and I also discovered that the way my business was structured didn't work for me...because I don't actually want to be in business in terms of having a coaching structure or packages, etc. I really just want to create content, and that's where this refresh is coming in. Spoiler alert: I'm shifting to Patreon and focusing on content creation there. And I'll have more details about all of this in the episode. But don't worry! The That Projector Life podcast will still be available to the public. Ready to hear more about what this refresh will look like? Dive into the episode! Check out That Projector Life on Patreon here:

196. Exploring the Layers of Human Design With Leann Wolff
We have a super special guest on That Projector Life this week! Human Design Professional and BG5 Business & Career Consultant Leann Wolff is joining us to talk about all thing Human Design. We start off by discussing the Mani-Gen/Projector relationship and how it differs from that of a Generator/Projector one. (Those of you with both Mani-Gens and Generators in your house, take some notes.) Then we move into talking about money, business, and manifesting as a Projector. And this is a huge topic, but Leann really did an amazing job of offering guidance on where we can look in our chart to determine the best path forward. She also shares her view that Projectors have a special connection with the quantum field due to our aura, something that comes into play when we talk about manifesting. Leann also talked about Cognition and how we can use that to give us greater depth on whether or not an invitation is correct for us. We dove into my Smell cognition and discussed how I can literally smell invitations, something I'll definitely be leaning into in my own experiment.

195. Understanding the Creative Cycle in Human Design

195. Understanding the Creative Cycle in Human Design
We're exploring the creative cycle, what it looks like, and how it shows up throughout the Human Design chart. (Notice that we're using the word "cycle" instead of "process" - that's going to be a big thing in this episode.) The creative cycle is a mysterious, sometimes frustrating thing to deal with. However, we'll explore the mechanics of it with some help from the Gene Keys system. We'll dive into Gates 1 and 2 (a.k.a. Gene Keys 1 and 2) to talk about how and where they contribute to the creative cycle. Then, we'll look at how the creative cycle itself shows up in our lives - and what to do when we're in the shadow or winter part of it. (The answer here likely isn't going to be what you expect.) Finally, we'll zoom out and look at the Human Design chart to explore how creativity shines through the different centers. And we'll hammer home the idea that inconsistency is ok - and it's actually how the centers work. (Not even the Sacral center is going to be on all the time. It also needs to rest.) Even if you don't feel like a creative soul, give this episode a listen - because I promise the creative cycle shows up in your life. You just may not be aware of it yet.

194. How to Release the Fear of Being Seen
Projectors need recognition. However, if we choose to conceal our true selves, it becomes more challenging for the right people to notice us. That’s why in this episode, we’re talking about the fear of being seen. I share a bit about my personal journey, and I guide you through a step-by-step process to set yourself up for recognition. We cover identifying what you want, what’s stopping you from getting there, releasing your fears, and shifting your energy into alignment. We also dive into the not-self, deconditioning the not-self, and embracing your unique energy. Ready to get deep? Listen to the episode!

193. 5 Things to Do When You Dislike Your Design
Have you been trying - and failing - to connect with your Human Design? Are you sometimes frustrated - or angry - with your design? How about just plain disliking it? In this episode, we'll address all of those feelings and go through some action steps you can take to begin to connect with your design. It's important to note that not everyone connects with their design instantly. For some people, it can be a struggle to see themselves in their design. And it can feel rather lonely when you're feeling frustrated with your design while watching other people fall in love with theirs. While these action steps may not help you change your perception or feelings toward your chart overnight, they'll hopefully give you a place to start if you're ready to connect with your chart. Ultimately, the biggest thing to keep in mind is to give yourself time and space to feel and process what you need to. If you feel like you're forcing things by doing this work, then take a step back and return at a later time. It's ok to take space if things aren't feeling correct.

192. Does Your Chart Have a Weakness?
In this episode of That Projector Life, we're diving into the idea of a chart "weakness" becuase it's something I hear a lot when talking to people about Human Design. Often, people want to know what their strengths and weaknesses are, and that's understandable. However, we're going to reframe the idea of weakness in this episode. We'll answer the question of whether or not your chart has a weakness and what you can do about it. (Spoiler alert: I don't think chart weakness exists, and we'll talk about why in this episode.) We'll also talk about how to reframe a perceived weakness and how you can turn it into a strength (or at least begin to be ok with it). Fair warning: I'm very passionate about this topic, so expect some emphatic speeches in this episode. Ready to dive into your "weakness"? Join me and listen to the episode!

191. How to Make Money as a Projector
In this episode, we're talking about a topic that pretty much every Projector I talk to asks me about: Money. Because making money as an aligned Projector is both straightforward and non-linear (rather like being a Projector, right?). It's possible for Projectors to make money as their true selves - but it will likely take some reprogramming. And that's where this episode comes in. We'll talk about some steps you can take to begin shifting your understanding of money and how you relate to it. We'll look at your mindset and your energy around money and talk about how those impact your Projector journey. We'll also talk about how our Projector strategy and authority come into play when it comes to making money. And yes, we'll also talk about following your bliss because that's really important, too. I'm under no illusion that this single episode will completely overhaul your relationship with money. That's not what it's here for. This episode is meant to plant some seeds - to help you change your perspective and to begin a new understanding of how your Projector energy is tied to money. Take what I say here with a grain of salt and find what works for you. Episode Links Note: My links have changed since this episode dropped! (I've just moved platforms).

190. Human Design and the Power of Active Listening With Victoria Fragoso
Join me and my guest, Victoria Fragoso, as we talk about all things listening. We haven't talked much about listening on the podcast, and this episode aims to remedy that. Listening is such an important skill to develop. It enables us to really see - and hear - the other person. Being a good listener makes people feel like they matter - and that's an incredible gift to offer. As Projectors, we're so often convinced that we know what to do and what others need, but it's also important to actually stop and listen to them. Victoria has fantastic suggestions that Projectors can use to help us hone our listening skills. And she shares her insights in actionable ways. Hearing Victoria speak about the importance of listening was so fun. I walked away with a lot to think about - and improve - when it comes to being a better listener.

189. 7 Challenges Projectors Face (And How to Overcome Them)
Look, I think being a Projector is awesome. But I also know that sometimes it can suck. And because I believe in looking at both the awesome and the not-so-awesome, we're diving into 7 challenges Projector face. However, we won't just talk about the challenges - we'll also talk about how Projectors can move through those challenges and overcome them. Because every challenge we come across is a learning opportunity. It gives us a chance to learn more about our energy, the world around us, and how we really want to move through it. And while you will see the top-of-mind challenges like waiting, making money, and burnout, we'll also talk about some other challenges that don't get quite as much attention. As you listen to the episode, notice where you feel a lot of frustration or resonance with a particular challenge. And then take what I recommend for overcoming that challenge and tweak it to work for you and your energy. It's ok to say that things are difficult or hard - and it's ok to give yourself the space to process them. But after that, it's time to shift and move past that challenge - in alignment with your Projector energy. Episode Links Note: My links have changed since this episode dropped!

188. How to Understand Relationships Using Human Design
In this episode, I'm joined by 6/2 Manifesting Generator Stacy Gissal, and we're talking all about relationships. Looking at - and talking about - relationship charts in Human Design is Stacy's jam. So that's what we're doing! Stacy gives us a great walk through the Human Design relationship chart and shares the different types of energy dynamics we'll come across and how they can play out in our lives. She also points out that you can't always change how the energy works, so it's important to understand these dynamics. (Also, looking at and understanding your relationship chart can create a lot of "ah-ha" moments for you.) We also talked about how to support your partner, friend, or child when their design is completely different from yours. And here, Stacy's emotional authority really shone. She offers some great strategies and tips for people without an emotional authority when it comes to living - and working with - an emotional authority. And she rightly points out that it really comes down to respect. Trusting the person you're living with is really important. This was such a fun and enlightening walk through the Human Design relationship chart. I hope it helps shed some new light on your relationships with others.

187. What Does Work Look Like for Projectors?
In this episode, we're talking about work and Projectors. This tends to be a complicated, personal, and nuanced topic. But we'll do our best to cover everything. We'll look at how Projector energy works and how it differs from Generator energy (and why that matters). We'll also create a space to reflect on our feelings around work and explore how Projectors energy contributes to the world. Oftentimes, it's not that Projectors need to do more or work harder. It's that we need to change our mindset and frame of reference when it comes to work. Projectors may not be here to work in the traditional sense, but we are here to contribute. What we offer is unique to our design, so spend time with your channels and reflect on what you want to offer the world. You know what you want to do (even if you can't quite mentally describe it). And reflect on how your energy wants to work - or offer itself to the world. Episode Links Note: My links have changed since this episode dropped! (I've just moved platforms).

186. Let's Talk About Invitations (Again)
We're once again revisiting invitations in this episode. But we're not talking about how they work, the energetic mechanics at play, or anything else in that vein. We're actually going to be addressing the more abstract (but equally important) questions around invitations like: What's my understanding of invitations? How did I arrive at that? Is my understanding the correct one? And more! This episode was actually sparked by an email that I received, and I'm so excited to dive into these questions. We will go into invitations a bit as I outline my philosophy behind them. But we'll spend more time answering how I arrived at my understanding of invitations and whether or not it's the correct one (spoiler alert: I don't know - but it works for me). So if you had questions along these lines, hopefully this episode will answer at least some of them. And if you have more questions that I didn't answer, let me know.

185. Exploring the 5th Line's Impact With Miran
In this episode of That Projector Life, I have a fantastic chat with Miran, a 5/1 Self-Projected Projector. And our conversation touches on a little of everything. Miran shares a lot of his experience being a Self-Projected Projector and how he's learned to decondition and step into being himself. He also touches on his experience of being a 5/1 profile. It was so neat to listen to Miran share how his 5th line show up in his life and how he's handled it. I learned a lot listening to him speak on these experiences. If you have a 5th line profile, or if you know someone who does, what Miran shares will be incredibly helpful. We also talked about the not-self and how Miran has learned to clarify what is and isn't his. At the end, he walks us through an exercise we can do to help move away from energy that isn't ours and back into our peace and power. It was so powerful to hear!

184. Do I Need to Be Certified?
Human Design certifications are everywhere, and sometimes it can feel like everyone has one. But do you really NEED to be certified? Short answer: No. Longer answer: It can be really helpful and add more depth to your understanding of the system. So that's what we're talking about in this episode. We're diving into the world of Human Design certification, the pros and cons, and what to consider if you're thinking about getting certified. As always, take what I suggest here with a grain of salt. The deciding factor for whether or not to join a certification should always be your authority. I'll also share my experience learning Human Design - from studying books alone to finally deciding it was time for me to join a certification program.

In this episode, we're covering a few different things relating to coaches and how to work with them. We'll talk about whether or not Projectors can and should hire non-Projector coaches as well as how to prepare for working with them. (Spoiler alert: They really need to be able to recognize you in order for things to go well.) But there are lots of great experiences that Projectors can have with non-Projector coaches - experiences that you wouldn't have with a Projector coach. It's a great way to learn how to work with a different type - and to see how that type operates. We'll also talk about working with a Projector coach and why that can be helpful to do at least once in your journey. Ultimately, which coach you decide to work with is a highly personal decision - and not one to make lightly. As always, follow your authority and energy. They won't lead you astray.

182. What HD Marketing Doesn't Tell You

182. What HD Marketing Doesn't Tell You
Marketing is an important part of being in business. If you don't marketing your products and services, you don't make as much money. And business need to make money. But marketing is also here for another reason: to solve problems. Marketing allows a business to get their solution (or system in the case of Human Design) into people's hands. And naturally, when we market, we want to polish everything. We want it to be shiny and exciting. However, marketing tends to gloss over some difficult truths when it pushes out its product, service, or system. And this tendency isn't just limited to Human Design marketing. Every marketing team worth their salt is going to focus on the benefits of their solution...not the hard work that it takes to achieve those benefits. And that's where this episode comes in. We're diving into some of the hard truths about the Human Design system that are often brushed over in online marketing (my own included). So let's dive in and look at the things we need to know when in the presence of marketing. Episode Links Note: My links have changed since this episode dropped! (I've just moved platforms).

181. 3 Things to Know About the Incarnation Cross

181. 3 Things to Know About the Incarnation Cross
We're talking about Incarnation Crosses in this episode of That Projector Life. The Incarnation Cross is something I get lots of questions on, which makes sense. It's something people want to know more about, but there doesn't tend to be a lot of information readily available online. So we're going to talk about what you need to know about your Incarnation Cross and how you can approach it. Yes, your Incarnation Cross is your life's purpose (though I really like thinking of it as story beats for your life - kind of like an outline that you can flesh out on your own). But that's not all there is to it. Many people want to know exactly what they're supposed to do in life, and the Incarnation Cross just doesn't provide that kind of specificity. (Don't believe me? I break down my Incarnation Cross in this episode and then create a story out of it. And not once do I mention podcasting or being an entrepreneur.) If you're interested in learning more about your Incarnation Cross, this episode will give you some great things to keep in mind and help you understand a little more about how to approach this important part of your chart.

180. Exploring the Personality and Design

180. Exploring the Personality and Design
In this episode, we're teasing apart the Red (Design) and Black (Personality) in our charts. Before we dive in, remember that you are always the combination of the two, so the Quantum. However, it's good to pull the Design and Personality apart to understand the energy you have in each one. Sometimes, we may feel like we're two different people in one body, and the differences that exist between our Design and Personality can help explain some of that feeling. During the show, we'll look at the Design and what that means, and then we'll look at the Personality and the energy there. Finally, we'll talk about the different combinations of energy that can exist between the Design and the Personality - and this is where things get...interesting and confusing. This information is definitely meant to be more contemplative and enlightening. Because we're both the Design and the Personality. While we're separating the two in the episode, it's not possible to choose to only be our Design and not our Personality. We're both, and we're meant to move through the world as both.

179. How to Support Your Manifestor With Holly Maree
Join me in welcoming our first Manifestor guest to the show! Holly Maree is a Splenic Manifestor, and she's created an amazing space for other Manifestors (and those who love them) to learn about what it means to be a Human Design Manifestor. In this episode, Holly shares her journey and offers an amazing insight into this unique Human Design type. She offers some great tips for how we can support Manifestors and encourage their energy. If you have a Manifestor kiddo at home, Holly's got you. She has a Manifestor bean of her own, and she shares some strategies that she uses with her own child to help him become an aligned, healthy Manifestor. It was such a treat to sit down with Holly and listen to her wisdom and experience. She even talks about the unique relationship that Manifestors and Projectors have (as well as the differences between our auras). I learned so much from Holly, and I would love to invite you to check out her links below, especially if you have a Manifestor in your life.

178. How I'm Using the Gene Keys

178. How I'm Using the Gene Keys
In this episode, I'm sharing the breakthrough that I experienced as a result of stepping back and working with the Gene Keys. I started looking at the gates in my Incarnation Cross (what the Gene Keys calls the Activation Sequence) and had a huge shift in my energy and mindset. I'll also talk briefly about what the Gene Keys system is and how I believe it pairs really well with Human Design. Then I'll go into how I worked with these specific Gene Keys and what I experienced as a result of this. The Gene Keys system tends to be a bit more contemplative than Human Design is, and as a result, I struggled to get into it the first time I tried. However, I listened to my energy and followed the flow. That led me to pick up my Gene Keys books and contemplate the energy of my gates. As a result of that, I'm able to share with you the experience and insights that I gleaned. If you're interested in going deeper into your energy, I would recommend the Gene Keys. Also, keep in mind that I'm just scratching the surface with this episode and the work I've done with the Gene Keys so far. So please take everything here with a grain of salt.

177. How to Live Your Design
We're diving a little more into the nuts and bolts of how to live your design in this episode. We'll talk about the general, big-picture process I recommend for moving ever deeper into your design. This process is the one that I've used for years as I continue to learn more about my energy and refine my approach to live more in alignment. We'll also discuss the nuances of living your design. Because living in alignment is going to look completely different when you're in month one of your journey versus when you're in year 5. And it's important to understand that. This is a multi-layered journey and long-term process. Nothing is going to happen overnight. This episode is designed to empower you through a super simple, fluid process that you can use as a launching pad to really dive into your design and live as your truest self.

176. The Importance of Speaking Correctly

176. The Importance of Speaking Correctly
There is so much pressure in our society to just talk - to say anything - even if you have nothing to say. How are Projectors supposed to navigate a conversation and speak correctly? Is there even a hard-and-fast rule that we can follow? (Spoiler alert: Only if you consider "Follow your authority" a rule). In this episode, we'll talk about our society's obsession with making noise and how we can begin to step back from the fray and observe it more. We'll also cover how Projectors can speak correctly by following our strategy and authority. Though we'll also look at the messy situations that don't allow us to easily follow that suggestion (because sometimes life happens). My challenge to you - and me - after this episode is to be ok with sitting in silence and to practice watching what is said. Mindful speaking is something that I'm reflecting on, and I invite you to join me in this experiment by listening to the episode. Episode Links Note: My links have changed since this episode dropped!

175. Exploring Your Authority Wound
03/15/2023
175. Exploring Your Authority Wound
Are you struggling to connect with and really appreciate your authority? It could be that you're facing what I call your Authority Wound. This is something I've reflected on for a while now, based on my experiences and the experiences of other Projectors. It seems that we all carry with us some kind of wounding message that prohibits us from really accessing and appreciating our authority. We all hear similar messages, but I suspect that our Authority Wound is the message that sticks with us the most - because it's so deeply hurtful. Our Authority Wound serves to disconnect us from our authority - to shame us for following it - and to ultimately give our power away to others. Each authority has a different wounding message - and a different wound to work through. Ready to discover yours? Listen in to the episode.
