the keys to the castle | finding alignment and self-acceptance

if ease, success, and natural flow are the castle, human design is the key to the front gate

put simply, human design is your energetic blueprint—your user manual for making aligned decisions, working with your strengths, and moving through life with more clarity and ease. it’s not about telling you who you are, but rather, giving you a framework for understanding how you’re designed to operate in the world.

yet, most of us spend years—decades even—operating completely out of sync with our design, trying to fit into systems and strategies that were never meant for us. we follow what’s supposed to work, wondering why it feels so forced. but what if you had a tool that actually accounted for you?

why human design?

the human design system was channeled in 1987 by ra uru hu. it’s a synthesis of ancient and modern wisdom—astrology, the i ching, the kabbalah, the chakra system, and quantum physics—all woven together into a practical tool for self-awareness and aligned decision-making.

but let’s get one thing straight: human design isn’t just another personality test. it doesn’t box you in, label you, or tell you what’s possible. instead, it shows you how to work with your energy rather than against it. it helps you see where you’ve been conditioned away from your true nature and how to realign with what actually works for you.

how i found human design

in early 2018, i hit a breaking point. my life looked fine on paper, but internally, i felt completely lost. i had no clear direction, no passion, no motivation. i was moving through life on autopilot, doing everything i thought i should be doing—checking the right boxes, following the paths that were supposed to lead to success—but none of it felt right.

i was desperate to figure out why i felt so disconnected from myself, so i went deep into self-discovery mode. i tried everything—myers-briggs, enneagram, astrology, numerology, astrocartography. i devoured books and took courses, trying to make sense of myself through every lens possible. but no matter how much i learned, i still felt stuck. i had all this information, but no real way to apply it.

then one weekend, i booked a solo trip to florida. i had no big plans—just space to clear my head. i spent my days walking the beach, sitting in silence, trying to hear myself for once. one evening at sunset, i put on an episode of the balanced blonde podcast, and jenna zoe started talking about human design.

i was intrigued. the way she described it made so much sense.

when i pulled up my own chart, though, it was a gut punch.

i realized just how out of alignment i had been living—how much i had been forcing, pushing, and draining myself in ways that were never meant for me. all because i thought that’s what i had to do to be successful.

what changed

human design didn’t just give me insight. it gave me a strategy.

for the first time, i had a framework that actually made sense for me.

i slowly started experimenting.

i stopped forcing myself to operate like an energizer bunny when my body was screaming for rest
i let go of the pressure to have all the answers right away and allowed myself to wait for clarity
i started making decisions based on what felt right, instead of trying to logic my way into the “correct” choice

at first, it felt uncomfortable—like i was breaking all the unspoken rules of how life is “supposed” to work. but then, things started shifting.

opportunities unfolded in ways i never could have planned. clarity replaced the constant mental gymnastics. my energy returned.

and the biggest shift? i finally felt at home in myself.

how you can start

you can check your human design chart for free here—you’ll need your birth date, time, and location. but charts alone don’t tell the full story. real transformation happens when you have someone who can decode the nuances, connect the dots, and guide you through the deeper layers of your design.

that’s where i come in.
