Ever wonder why some people seem to grow into their leadership over time, almost as if they're being shaped by life itself? In this episode, Nicole explores the 6/2 Human Design profile — the Role Model/Hermit — and what makes this path so unique, complex, and ultimately powerful. If you're someone who feels like you're living in chapters, or if life has been asking you to slow down, reflect, and rise when the time is right, this one will resonate deeply. Nicole unpacks the three life phases of the 6-line journey, how the Hermit's natural gifts are revealed over time, and why the role model energy of the 6/2 isn't something you chase — it's something you grow into. She also breaks down how this profile compares to the 3/6 and 4/6, why the rooftop years are so important, and how the call to leadership usually shows up. You'll walk away with a better understanding of why things may not have made sense in your first few decades — and why your most important work might be just beginning. With real-world examples of famous 6/2s and honest reflections on how to embrace this profile fully, this episode is both grounding and inspiring. Whether you are a 6/2 or love someone who is, this conversation will help you see the brilliance in the timing, the beauty in the waiting, and the power in finally being seen. Listen now!

Ever feel like you're meant to lead but just want to be left alone? If that tug-of-war sounds familiar, you might be living the 5/2 experience. In this episode, Nicole unpacks the complexity of the Heretic Hermit profile—a powerful yet often misunderstood combination in Human Design. You'll explore how the 5/2 operates with both projected lines, why its gifts must be self-recognized before they can truly shine, and what makes this profile fundamentally different from the 5/1. Nicole explains how the tension between public expectation and private genius can create confusion—and how understanding this pattern can unlock clarity, especially in how you show up in your purpose and business. Expect eye-opening insights on projection, self-recognition, and why authority is non-negotiable for the 5/2. Nicole also shares famous 5/2s who exemplify the profile's quiet strength and influential presence in the world. Whether you're a 5/2 or just fascinated by how Human Design shapes expression and leadership, this episode offers a fresh perspective you won't want to miss.

Bright on Buddhism - Asian Religions Series - Shintō Part 3Hello and welcome to the Asian religions series. In this series, we will be discussing religious traditions in Asia other than Buddhism. Buddhism never existed in a vacuum, and as it has spread all across East Asia, it has developed, localized, and syncretized with local traditions in fascinating and significant ways. As such, we cannot provide a complete picture of East Asian without discussing those local traditions such as they were and are. Disclaimer: this series is very basic and introductory, and does not and cannot paint a complete picture of these religious traditions as they are in the present or throughout history. Today, we will be continuing our discussion of Shinto, a very historically and culturally significant religious tradition in Japan. We hope you enjoyResources: Hardacre, Helen (1991).

Ever met someone who seems wise beyond their years but also radiates that "please don't talk to me" energy? That's the 6/2 Profile, and today we're diving into this fascinating combination of the Role Model and the Hermit.What We're Covering- The phasic journey of Line 6: from experimental years to role model energy- Why Line 2s are natural talents but get frustrated when they're not instantly good at something- The unique tension between being seen as a leader and needing serious alone time- How the 6/2 Profile shows up differently across Human Design types- Real-life examples including Barack Obama, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, and Maya AngelouThe 6/2 DynamicThe 6/2 is such an interesting combination—these people often carry wisdom that feels like it came from living multiple lifetimes, yet they deeply need their own space to process. They're the ones everyone looks to for guidance, but who also just want to curl up with a good book and be left alone.Here's what makes them tick:- Three distinct life phases that shape their journey- A natural ability to see the bigger picture- The need to retreat and recharge before sharing their wisdom- That unique quality where people feel their presence even when they're being quietWhy This MattersWhether you're a 6/2 yourself or have someone important in your life with this profile, understanding this dynamic can transform relationships and self-acceptance. The 6/2 operates on their own timeline, and their greatest gift is simply being who they are, not what they do.00:00 Welcome02:19 Reflections on HD in real life09:02 Intro to Profile12:38 Intro to 6/218:58 House analogy24:35 Traits of 6th line45:43 Tension with 6 and 248:27 6/2 by Type56:45 6/2- The Rock01:06:58 6/2 Barack Obama01:23:55 Wrap up on 6/201:25:54 ICX of the Week01:31:13 Join us for our Community Calls!If you're curious about how Human Design shows up in daily life, this episode is a must-listen.

What if tarot wasn't about predicting the future, but about deeply understanding the present? In this episode, I have a fun and informative conversation with financial well-being coach, JD Rose. She helps us explore tarot as a powerful tool for self-reflection and personal growth. We unpack the meaning of 2025's card of the year—The Hermit—and what it invites us to explore collectively and individually. From the historical roots of tarot to the theme of the “nines,” JD shares how the cards offer grounded guidance for navigating mental, emotional, and physical challenges. This conversation is an invitation to slow down, turn inward, and trust your inner wisdom. BONUS! Thursday I'm dropping a short episode where JD teaches us some ways to use the tarot in our business!

He was born in Constantinople to well-off and pious parents. He became a monastic in Thrace, and subjected himself to many ascetic labors, one of which was always to dress in a hair-shirt, from which he was called "Trichinas" (meaning "hairy"). He was granted the gift of working miracles, both during his lifetime and after his repose. His relics exuded a healing myrrh.

It was my true pleasure to welcome Alejandro Yela of The Hermit substack https://hrmt.substack.com/ and the Equity Focus FIL fund for a chat!
We are in a bit of a remote, wooded double feature today for Dan's tales. The first of two stories is composed out of what may have been a hermit's final diary entries, as a man living alone in a remote cabin writes of something terrorizing him. Then we hear the legend of the Dungarvon Whooper, a folklore coming from an old logging camp in New Brunswick, Canada. Then Lynze gives us a life long but seemingly harmless attachment. Or is it? What's happening to this person? Lastly, what Dan says is possibly the most horrifying tale he's ever heard from Lynze- what happens when you cannot tell reality from nightmare?

In this continuation of their non-linear journey through the tarot, Phil and JF discuss the ninth Arcanum: the Hermit. Walking through darkness with his lantern and staff, the Hermit invites us to break from the collective and seek a direct relationship with the Real. This is the card of the seeker, the misfit, the sage, and the wanderer. As tends to happen in these tarot episodes, the hosts take the opportunity to range across many topics, connecting the Hermit to Jung's Red Book, the Desert Fathers, angels and demons, the I Ching, contemporary politics, and more.

What if your natural gifts were so powerful, they drew people in before you even said a word? The 2/5 profile in Human Design—known as the Hermit Heretic—carries a rare blend of raw talent and quiet magnetism that can feel both empowering and overwhelming. In this episode, Nicole breaks down what makes this profile so unique, and why it often feels like you're living in two worlds at once. Nicole explains the internal push-pull that 2/5s experience: the desire to retreat and master your craft, alongside the pressure to step into the spotlight and serve others. With relatable stories and examples from well-known figures, she illustrates how this profile works, where it gets tripped up, and how to work with its energy rather than against it. You'll also hear how the two distinct projection fields shape how others see you—and why it's so important for 2/5s to call themselves forward, rather than wait for the world to validate their gifts. There's power in recognizing what makes you different, and even more in learning how to own it fully. If you're a 2/5 or love someone who is, this episode will help you understand the brilliance behind the profile—and how it can be the X-factor that sets you apart in life and business.

Ever wonder why some people seem to get plucked from obscurity while others grind endlessly without recognition? In this episode, Nicole breaks down the powerful dynamics of the 2/4 Human Design profile — the Hermit Opportunist — and why this combination can be both a gift and a challenge. Nicole reveals what truly sets 2/4s apart, moving beyond generic definitions to explore how this profile shows up in real-world behavior, relationships, and business. You'll hear how the natural magnetism of the 2/4 can either lead to effortless opportunities or leave someone feeling unseen and misunderstood — depending on how aligned they are with their design. From Johnny Depp's unexpected rise to stardom to Ryan Gosling's quiet charisma and lifelong creative path, Nicole uses these real-life 2/4s to show how this profile operates behind the scenes. You'll hear how natural talent, when recognized and nurtured, can lead to incredible opportunities — and why trusting that inner gift is so crucial for 2/4s to thrive. You'll also hear about tools to help you decondition from old patterns, unlock your “X factor,” and start living in deeper alignment with who you really are. This one's for anyone curious about how Human Design can offer practical, transformative insight — not just theory.

"He was the son of Juliana, a Christian woman of Armenia. While still a child, he left his mother and ran off to the desert. He was utterly aflame with love for Christ the Lord. In the beginning he entrusted himself to the guidance of a spiritual father, Pharmutius, who was so pleasing to God that an angel brought him bread every day. John later left him and withdrew into solitude. He let himself down into a dry well and lived there for a full ten years in fasting, prayer and vigils. St Pharmutius used to bring him some of the angel's bread, for the angel of God did not wish to bring bread to the young John in person, lest he grow proud through this, so sent it through Pharmutius his spiritual father. After ten years of arduous asceticism in his well, St John went to the Lord and his relics revealed wonderworking power. He lived and was glorified by God and men in the 4th century." (Prologue)
