Whole & Unleashed

What if letting go wasn't a sign of failure—but an act of wisdom? In this episode of the Whole & Unleashed podcast, I sit down with Jasmine Nnenna, someone whose words and presence have been a guiding light for me and so many others navigating burnout, transition and the new paradigms of work and life. We talk about the real cost of hustle culture, redefining what it means to "fail," and how entrepreneurship is evolving in the Aquarian age.Jasmine brings a perspective that is both deeply rooted and visionary—where endings are sacred, multidimensionality is celebrated, and success is no longer measured by hustle, but by alignment.In this episode we explored:The liberation that comes from honouring endings—in business, relationships, and personal chaptersWhy Jasmine believes being a jack-of-all-trades can actually lead to masteryThe role of curiosity in spiritual and entrepreneurial evolutionHer personal deconditioning journey as a 3/5 Sacral GeneratorReimagining "failure" as simply completionLetting your business be an artistic medium, not a performanceWhat Aquarian entrepreneurship really looks and feels like—and why it centers relationship, reciprocity, and regenerationEmbracing business as a soulful, cyclical expression, not a linear climb Follow Jaswww.instagram.com/erahsocietywww.instagram.com/jasminennennawww.erahsociety.com

We first met during our Stråla Yoga training in Amsterdam back in 2017 and immediately connected over our shared love of movement, mindfulness and our latino roots.This conversation is a little different from my usual Human Design episodes.

This Expansion Session took place last year, 2023 where Annelyse wrote in: Annelyse is a triple split Emotional Generator with the RAX of the Vessel of Love.  It was so nice chatting with her and hearing about her insights and how she's navigating this transitional time as she embraces more of what makes her, her.   I am seeking clarity on me. I find my chart to be extremely interesting with all centres defined with the exception of my spleen and my crown. So basically, I take on the fears + inspirations of others... so who am I really!? I am on my gap year following an intense 7 years of university, turning inward to really get to know me and what my heart truly desires after making so many decisions from outside of myself for so long.  Episode highlights Annelyse's emotional process, her gate of crisis Her 17-62 Channel of Structuring Her grounding practices and what helps her cultivate present moment awareness The 3/5 Profile how being a 3rd line can feel chaotic at times Learning to surrender to her energetic cues Her completely open Spleen & Crown Her Personality Sun Gate, 15  Extremes Learning to release perfectionism and embracing grace & compassion

So excited to finally share this episode with Adina Kroll, we recorded this a few months ago and it's got so many beautiful nuggets of wisdom. Adina is a 5/1 Emotional Projector with the LAX of Individualism. We chatted on identity, projections and letting go of perfection. I met Adina last year and we hit it off right away, we learned soon, that we share half a design! Adina's personality gates are my unconscious gates! I'll share our charts on the blog post. But we have the exact same gates (except for moon) with a few different profile lines. Isn't that fascinating? In today's chat, Adina shared more about her background, the societal conditioning she grew up with and how she learned about her design after a frustrating stunt with a marketing coach. Since then she's learned to honour her own personal style, heal from projections and teach others how to embrace sales while following their energetics. In this conversation we explored: How Adina started to build self trust The concept of personal responsibility The pressures of the Root center The tension of 5th line projections and the 1st line's desperate need for foundations Purpose and G centre How she naturally shocks people without even trying Committing before our authorities are aligned The projector experience and the approach on invitations Full blog post here Find Adina www.instagram.com/adinakroll www.adinakroll.com

Today's session is with Helen, a 3/5 sacral generator, split definition with the RAX of the vessel of love. Helen wrote in “I have been caring for my parents, now just my Mum, for 7 years. I have done a lot of inner work but am still stuck with what to do next. I want to coach women through problems with Gene Keys and Human Design. I adore your website and offerings and would love to connect with you but I have I have very limited funds due to my caring role.” At the time of her message she's seeking support + clarity in navigating “Other peoples expectations and her tendency to people please and ignore her sacral authority!” She's looking to create space to care for her mom and also run her side business Episode highlights Feeling disconnected from her IC, vessel of love Struggling to find motivation as she navigates her role as a caregiver and her own health imbalances Her interest in living in harmony with nature How to create a toxic free home Her pull to share her passions and interests The expectations and disappointment from others that's prevented her from showing up as herself Releasing mental pressure and more  

Knowing more about our designs or reading more it about doesn't necessarily mean we'll aligned easier. Specially when it comes from a mental place. In this episode with Rachel, author of a Modern Guide to Human Design she shares about aligning her mind to body, sacral joy and understanding her responses. Rachel Lieberman is a 1/3 Sacral Generator, Vessel of Love, Founder of Pure Generators and host of New Paradigm Human Design. Rachel Lieberman stepped away from a traditional career path with a question: In today's world, can we spend our lives doing meaningful, energizing, and satisfying things? This inquiry led her to the study of human design, and within weeks she started blogging on the topic (and hasn't stopped since). The blog became a multimedia hub with a large online community of curious individuals with a desire to challenge the status quo in how they use their precious energy. Her mission is to make human design accessible and practical, inviting everyone to move away from outdated, rigid study and experiment with the system in their everyday lives. You can find Rachel online at puregenerators.com. In this conversation we explored: How a "Sacral scream" nudged her to walk away from an unfulfilling job Her journey stumbling upon Human Design, learning about Generators Her 1/3 Profile, how she finds balance between her mental definition and her sacral guidance The Sacral response + plateau cycles The process of writing her book, the right timing Conditioning, surrendering to her joy and noticing her responses

Today's expansion session is with a 1/3 Ego Projector, we recorded this session around the summer of 2023. There is a lot to unpack, a lot to move through specially when we're in this space. Bitterness, for projectors, is our out of alignment theme after all. Perhaps that's part of our journey back to ourselves, seeing what's beneath the bitterness specially for this vessel of love. In this session I wanted to simply create a safe space for Stacy to process, there was a lot of mental energy taking over and running the scripts;  dimming her inner guidance, her ego, her own self trust and intuition.very post I've written that there would be things I would change simply because of where I'm at currently. Here's what we explore in this session: Fear of being competitive, feeling the need to shrink herself Feeling lost at 54, lost of self trust. No longer trusting her gut and feeling disconnected from herself Her capable of lifting others but having difficulty lifting herself Not knowing how to feel good when used to the comforts/tension of being misaligned and on edge Fear of mistakes, of getting things wrong Pressures of the completely open throat Vessel of love, what is love, how does loving ourselves look like? Healer needs healing, Vessel of love needs love

In this conversation Jamie shared: Her journey with owning, trusting her voice and creative expression The dynamics of growing up in Singapore and moving to Australia What catapulted her into starting her own business and walking away from a longterm relationship Learning about her 5/1 profile and being a Manifestor Our Asian tenacity and how's that shaped us Breaking old generational cycles and patterns Embracing her undefined G and allowing her expressions to flow through And a lot more, come join our conversation! FOLLOW JAMIE www.instagram.com/jamieshujun/ www.jamieshujun.com/

Today's conversation was recorded during summer of 2023. Jana a 4/1 Splenic Manifestor wrote in the following: "I often struggle with the combination of a strong drive and few defined motor centers. I would love to discuss informing and ways of getting support that are well matched with my profile. Right now I'm in the process of making the jump from having a small supporting job alongside my freelance business (around meditation, mindfulness and yoga) and I'm all about creating structures, schedules and offers that support my energy with all its ebbs and flows." Here's what we explore in this session: How informing can look like and what it isn't about The fixedness of the 4/1 juxtaposition profile, the aloofness that often comes with it Being an indirect Manifestor, with two projected channels. Now this doesn't mean she's here to act as a projector, but rather discerning how this nuance informs her energetic expression. If you're reading the blog or watching this, I'll include her chart up throughout so you can reference the what we're talking about Her concerns about not being soft enough Her Gate 5, along with her 4/1, the importance of having very specific routines, rituals to ground herself. How to relish in her fixedness instead of seeing it as a bad thing Her completely open G center and how that guides her along with her 48-16 channel of the wavelength

Today's soundbite episode is a little reflection that was stirred up towards the Virgo full moon which happened around the end of February 2024. So many ponderings around my conditioning and the pressure to get certainty. In this episode I touched on: The to find certainty in my business, to create out of external pressure and fears How my completely open head, ajna and undefined pressure centers can run the show The difference between creating from a place of trust, curiosity vs. to make something happen The cycles of creation Technical sides of how I run Whole & Unleashed from the programs I use to what I create The expressions of my throat center How my writing has evolved as I honoured my energetic flows Full post about throat center expressions. You'll also see my chart attached there.

Today's episode is with a dear friend, Kate Marolt. She's a 3/6 Self-Projected Projector and we chatted about yoga, embodiment and what is looks like to embrace our divinity and chaos. It's not always easy to look into our depths but with enough practice, the process becomes a little bit less complex as we navigate the highs and lows of life.   In this conversation we explored: Self care, embodiment and Kate's personal healing journey Meeting & holding space for the new versions for ourselves as we shed old identities Grieving and building a relationship with these complex parts of ourselves Creativity amid limitations Embracing uncertainty as we tend to our health and capacity Working with our courage and joy as we go through cycles of rebirth   Find Kate: www.instagram.com/kate_marolt www.katemarolt.com

In today's expansion session, we hear from a 4/6 Sacral Manifesting Generator. They're in a period of transition and looking to start a business of their own as they take care of their bodies and energetic needs. We talked about: Their gate of depth along with their 48-16 Channel of the Wavelength Splenic fears and the fear of being seen as a MG The limitations of the mind Her Defined Crown and Ajna, the pressure to always move through confusion 64-47 Channel of Abstraction What happens when we turn Collective energy inwards and how to process this energy in a supportive, healthy way Their 4/6 profile and about to come off the roof Their large split definition Their 45-21 Channel of Money, how her desires show her what her community needs as well Apply for a free expansion session here  

I'm joined by dear friend Tara Stiles. She was one of the first guests of the Whole & Unleashed podcast. It's been a few years since her episode and I thought it would be fun to catch up with her and also weave in some Human Design elements. She graciously let me do a mini-dive on her Human Design chart a few months ago on IG live. You can watch the conversation here. But I also wanted to expand a little bit more on that. To show how she's thriving, creating a life that is authentic and aligned to her. Tara is a 3/6 emotional projector. Who's about to come “off the roof” she's moving towards her 3rd phase of her 6th line and ready to engage with her community in many new ways. There's a lot of disempowering information out there about projectors and how “little energy” we have. There's the belief that having a defined Sacral or that being a Manifestor will mean that all our dreams come true or with more ease. But the thing is, everyone has challenges and different needs. No matter your type, we have the power to take care of ourselves and create the life we want. Just different approaches for different energetic needs. In this episode we talked about: The magic of her 17-62 Channel of Acceptance shining through Strala Yoga. The way she's able to create a practice that sensitizes us to our needs, to how we're feeling and moving from that centre. Her experience with her emotional authority and how feelings guide her. Along with how her mental definition supports her process because remember, the mind is not bad! It's so helpful when we're able to create space for both our intuition and mind to work together. Community and how she's built a life, a business rooted in deep intentional connections (her 49-19 Channel of Synthesis beautiful expressed) Her pull to share her own stories and other people's stories (Her 33-13 Channel of Prodigal!) How she's stayed grounded in her truth as she stood up for abuse in the yoga world and her efforts in creating a more approachable, accessible yoga through Strala I've always admired how Tara is able to move, create in a way that is sustainable and expansive. Taking care of herself, following her heart and invitations/opportunities coming along.

Welcome to season 3 of the podcast! So excited to bring back expansion sessions, guests interviews and reflection episodes! In today's episode I shared: Reflections on some lessons and personal themes of 2023 Deconditioning from doing to allow space for being Feminine and masculine energies Why less is more How can we subtract from our days Announcements and more!

A soundbite kinda episode, this was recorded a few weeks after season 2 wrap up in 2023 but I never got chance to edit and share until now. I often get asked what's the one thing that helped me the most while starting my business, my healing journey, my transition from 9-5 to my schedule etc. And it always catches me off guard, because it was never just one thing. It was a series of tiny steps that lead to more opportunities and openings. Yet, if I were to summarize the theme of the steps I took for myself, this is the episode you'll want to catch. But it's important to remember, just because this worked for me doesn't mean it's what you need right now.

Do not give your autonomy to this framework ⛔️ As much as I love this system, it's important we don't blindly just follow what it says. I just saw an ad leveraging Human Design to find your soulmate. And it obviously triggered something in me, because I'm coming in HOT

Hi everyone! This week on the podcast, Human Design with Courtney is back! I love these episodes because we just show up, connect and talk about Human Design.

In today's episode we talk about: How our Human Design readings have shifted How the pressure of turning something we love into a business can cloud us The temptation of turning Human design into a rulebook, into a prescription The realization, fear of doing life wrong The ebbs and flow of our energies, the phases we get pull into Jes watching her family through the lens of Human Design What an online and in person community feels like for Courtney

Expansion sessions are 90 minute coaching sessions where you, as a listener get to be a fly on the wall as I guide my guest through whatever they're holding tension or seeking clarity on. In today's episode, Mayu wrote to me about feeling overwhelmed about starting her business. She loves yoga and teaching but when it's viewed as a job, a business she feels a paralyzing pressure. And as we dive deeper you'll notice how it takes some time to actually get to the root of her tension and that there are many layers intertwined with each other. English is not her first language so I can't even imagine how that also adds more complexity to the situation but I'm so proud of her for taking this step and being open to being guided because I've seen how much she's expanded ever since (it's been close to a year since this section took place) and I'm wondering if I should do a follow up episode to check in with her (let me know in the comments if this is something you would like to see of as well) In today's Expansion Session we explore: What's preventing Mayu from expressing herself fully How to trust herself when she's experiencing a lot of fear Navigating health imbalances (eczema, low energy) Feeling the limitations and how they box her Recognizing her intuition vs. people's fears projecting onto her

After a few months off I'm back with season 2 premiere. This episode I share about surrendering to my inner seasons and tuning in to my cycles.

Today, my guest Sonja McGillicuddy talks about her experience connecting to her body as she recovered from postnatal depression, her experience with perimenopause and how she helps her clients manage and cope through peri-menopause symptoms. After a successful career in the Hotel Industry Sonja discovered yoga and began the journey that led her to where she is today. Three years ago she wanted to serve more people and completed a year long Health Coaching certification with IIN. While studying, she began to experience hormonal imbalances and struggled with depression, weight gain, poor sleep and low energy. So she started researching and learning about perimenopause in order to support herself and move beyond the unpleasant symptoms. As she healed herself, she realised there is so much that we can do to support ourselves during this time, yet it't not something that's talked about enough and so many women suffer in silence. Today, her intention to support women through her work to not only survive perimenopause, but also thrive during this time. Changes are inevitable, but we don't have to suffer along the way. In today's episode Sonja shares: How postnatal depression lead her to slow down and reconnect to her body Going through Perimenopause and going at war with her body until she surrendered Her journey becoming a health coach, reclaiming her power through food and nutrition The signs of perimenopause and what she's done to manage those symptoms How to support your body through hormonal changes How she creates a sustainable lifestyle for her clients

Expansion sessions are coaching sessions where I help somebody through their resistance and guide them back to themselves Today's episode with Janelle we talked about fears. From recognizing what they are to identifying if it's really a fear that's coming from within as opposed to amplifying someone else's. There is a difference and you'll notice the moment through it with Janelle. And on the topic of fear, they can offer so much insight and even wisdom on what's holding us back. We could try to logic them away but sometimes it's not about approaching them directly. Because there's usually so many layers underneath. This episode is for you if you're sensing some doubt into a new venture you're starting, even if you're in the middle of a transition and you're trying to gain clarity or simply because you want to understand and hold space for your fears. We talk about what's holding Janelle back, connecting to her body wisdom and how you can do it too

Today's podcast is a solo episode where I share a little bit more about my process on stepping into my self-worth—including footage I've never shared before—and how starting this podcast helped me heal. This episode is a reflection on what this podcast journey has been for me. You see, I never realized how much I needed this outlet. Or clued in on how therapeutic this entire ordeal would be. This medium has helped me reclaim my voice. It healed my throat chakra and unblock some energies I didn't even realized were blocked! But it isn't all rainbows and butterflies. So I thought it might be helpful to share this audio/video footage I recorded of myself after the first interview I did for the podcast. To be frank, I didn't expect to share this because well, it's vulnerable, it's a bit messy, I rambled, I might've cried and the audio is not the best...but I think it's important to show also the messy parts so you too can see more of the process. In this episode I talk about: From believing in myself to fully owning my essence Realizing the stories I held onto were keeping me behind Recognizing my fears and what they were stopping me from doing How I finally started to embrace my desires and believe that I was worth it Questions and prompts you could journal on
