Have you ever wondered why goal setting feels off or why chasing success leaves you more drained than fulfilled? This episode unpacks the role of the ego center in Human Design—also known as the will or heart center—and how it impacts your relationship with goals, achievement, and prosperity. Through the lens of a client's powerful question, you'll discover what it means to have an open or undefined ego and why traditional approaches to motivation and money don't always work for everyone. Nicole explains how the ego center is connected to willpower and material success, and why trying to prove yourself or force results often backfires. If you've struggled with consistency, felt pressured by “shoulds,” or wondered whether you can be successful without chasing external validation, this conversation will offer clarity and a new perspective. You'll walk away with insight into how alignment—not ego—leads to sustainable success. By the end, you'll understand why honoring your unique design is the key to reaching your goals with more ease, freedom, and fulfillment.

What if the key to making Human Design work for you wasn't about getting more answers, but about shifting the way you approach the whole system?  In this episode, Nicole responds to one of the most common questions she gets from entrepreneurs: “What's the number one thing I should know about Human Design?” Her response may not be what you expect—and it could change the way you think about your chart forever. Rather than focusing on quick fixes or rigid rules, Nicole reveals two core practices that create real breakthroughs. She explains why so many people unknowingly stall their own progress, how to stop forcing results, and the perspective shift that makes Human Design feel lighter, more inspiring, and far more effective. You'll hear the surprising reason some people move quickly with this system while others feel stuck, and how to open yourself to insights that naturally move you forward. These are the tools Nicole wishes every client had from the start, because they make the process more enjoyable and lead to lasting success. If you've been feeling impatient, frustrated, or unsure of how to work with your chart, this episode offers the clarity and encouragement you need to reset your approach and finally experience the transformation you've been hoping for.

Welcome back to another episode of the Best Kept Secret podcast show with your host-DJ Jon Lockley. Last month, Jon decided to bring us a mix of something he had never made before-Drum and Bass. Well, I think he's caught the DnB bug because he's brought us a part II to last month's mix. I'm guessing he had so many tracks that he wanted to share, it just took more than one mix to fit them all in. Hey! We ain't complainin'. And he's included a BRKN DWN DnB track that he whipped up recently. So, buckle up. It's 61 more minutes of the get down with the get down. As always, if you like what you're hearing, like, comment and share. Enjoy the journey!Tracklist:1. Drumsound & Bassline Smith-Back To Life2. Culture Shock & Grafix-Make It Pump3.

What if one simple shift in perspective could turn your biggest challenges into your greatest gifts?  In this milestone 400th episode, Nicole pauses to celebrate the journey so far — 170,000 downloads and countless moments of connection — while sharing the deep gratitude she feels for every listener who has been part of it. To mark the occasion, she turns to one of her favorite tools for personal and business transformation: the Gene Keys. Often described as the “poetry” to Human Design's structure, the Gene Keys offer a rich, contemplative path for unlocking your gifts, understanding your challenges, and moving toward your highest potential. You'll hear how this system connects directly to the gates in Human Design, why Nicole sees it as an essential complement to the traditional framework, and the three main sequences that can guide you through activating your genius, deepening your relationships, and expanding your prosperity. Along the way, she shares the single idea from the Gene Keys that completely transformed how she approaches self-awareness and growth. Whether you're brand new to the Gene Keys or already weaving them into your own journey, this episode will inspire you to explore your design in a deeper, more compassionate way. https://www.nicolelaino.com/chart To download the Secret Podcast on how to Build & Scale Your Business with Human Design click here: nicolelaino.com/secretpodcast  Learn more about the Business By Design Mentorship at https://nicolelaino.com/enroll Be sure to visit nicolelaino.com/podcastlinks for all of the current links to events, freebies, and more!

What if the key to consistent, high-income months wasn't more hustle, but a powerful mix of inner shifts and smart strategy? In this episode, Nicole pulls back the curtain on the four transformative money shifts that changed everything in her business. Sparked by a candid conversation with a client, she reveals the deeper mindset and energy patterns that can either block your growth or open the door to entirely new levels of income. You'll hear how she broke free from her old “money paradigm,” moving beyond feast-or-famine cycles into a reality where money arrives in both expected and unexpected ways. She shares the daily energetic practices that keep her aligned, the pivotal questions that reshaped her strategy, and the moment-to-moment awareness she uses to stay in the energy of abundance rather than lack. This isn't about quick fixes or one-size-fits-all tactics — it's about creating both the internal foundation and the external systems that can actually support bigger results. Through real-life stories and practical examples, Nicole shows you how to identify where your current reality isn't built for your goals, and what it takes to create pathways for money to flow more freely. If you've ever wondered what really changes when you start making more money — and how to make it happen without burning out or forcing it — this episode offers the clarity and motivation you need to start shifting now.

Sarah and JVL defend the honor of Baby Boomer protestors and debate the merits of anti-fascist sandwich throwing before hunkering down for a loooong conversation about whether Trumpism is a perversion of conservatism, or a fulfillment of it.

Have you ever felt like you're picking up on things no one else seems to notice? You might just be experiencing the world like a Reflector. In this final episode of the Human Design Type Series, we're shining a light on the most rare and misunderstood type—those who reflect the energy of their environment with powerful clarity. Nicole unpacks what makes Reflectors so unique, from their lunar connection to their ability to sense the undercurrents of a group or community. She explores the truth behind their so-called “lack of energy,” the beauty of their fluid nature, and why embracing this ever-changing rhythm is key to their alignment and purpose. You'll learn how Reflectors can move from feeling overwhelmed or out of place to becoming trusted guides and intuitive leaders—without forcing themselves to fit into the world's mold. Nicole also shares why creating space, time, and freedom is non-negotiable for Reflectors to truly thrive. Whether you are a Reflector, know one, or are simply curious about how different energies move through the world, this episode offers a fresh perspective that just might change how you see yourself—or someone close to you.

Ever wonder why doing more doesn't always work for you—or why hustle culture leaves you feeling unseen? If you're a Projector or work closely with one, this episode will change the way you see success, energy, and your unique role in the world.  We're exploring what truly sets Projectors apart, how their energy is meant to operate, and why recognizing their brilliance starts with recognizing themselves. You'll hear how Projectors are designed to guide rather than grind, and how their ability to see systems, patterns, and inefficiencies gives them a powerful edge—when they stop trying to play by everyone else's rules. We're unpacking the importance of recognition, why invitations matter, and how to step into a value-driven model of leadership and business that actually works for Projectors. This episode also sheds light on the emotional struggles many Projectors face—feeling overlooked, undervalued, or like they're constantly chasing visibility. If you've ever questioned your path because you don't operate like the rest of the world, this conversation offers permission to honor your design and redefine how you measure success. Whether you're a Projector looking for clarity or someone who wants to better understand the Projectors in your life, this is a must-listen that reveals the quiet power and potential of this impactful type.   Learn more about your Human Design and get your full chart for free at https://www.nicolelaino.com/chart   To download the Secret Podcast on how to Build & Scale Your Business with Human Design click here: nicolelaino.com/secretpodcast  Be sure to visit nicolelaino.com/podcastlinks for all of the current links to events, freebies, and more!

Bill Kristol fills in for JVL during this extra super secret edition of the Secret Podcast. Trump's economy is cracking under its own weight—grocery prices, tariffs, and a sputtering job market are chipping away at his support. Could these numbers spell trouble for 2026?

Ever wonder why doing what you love still doesn't seem to be working the way it should? In this episode, Nicole explores the Generator type in Human Design—what sets them apart, how their energy works, and why so many Generators unknowingly block their own alignment. If you're constantly trying to "figure it out" or push forward without results, there's a good chance you're missing the magic of response. You'll hear the subtle but powerful differences between initiating versus responding, the common mindset traps Generators fall into, and how reconnecting with what truly lights you up can change everything—from your energy to your business results. Nicole also shares real-world stories and insights to help you recognize and trust your sacral cues in the moment. Whether you're a Generator or work with them, this conversation offers a fresh and honest perspective on what it really means to live and work in alignment with your design.

If you've ever felt like your marketing is all over the place or like you're showing up online but still not seeing results this episode is your golden road!In today's short + powerful solo episode, Rachel breaks down exactly how to market your photography business using a funnel framework. From top of funnel visibility to bottom of funnel conversions, you'll learn how to structure your content, website, email strategy, and client journey to guide potential clients all the way from “just found you” to “can't wait to work with you.”Whether you're stuck attracting price shoppers or you're ready to refine your systems to book high-end dream clients, this episode will help you finally connect the dots in your marketing strategy.

If you've ever been told you're “doing too much” or you've struggled to fit your multi-passionate energy into a traditional business mold, this episode is for you. We're exploring deep into the Manifesting Generator type in Human Design—what defines this unique energy, how it differs from Generators and Manifestors, and why it's often misunderstood even by those who live it. Nicole breaks down the technical aspects of being an MG and more importantly she explores how this powerhouse type is wired to move fast, pivot often, and break the mold. But that rapid-fire energy comes with its own set of challenges—like burnout, distraction, and launching from the mind instead of the sacral.  You'll hear insights about how to distinguish between excitement driven by the mind versus true sacral response, how to handle the emotional lows that come with things not working out, and how to lean into your unique magnetism without second-guessing yourself. Nicole also shares how Manifesting Generators thrive best when they stop trying to “fix” their chaos—and instead learn to channel it intentionally. This episode will challenge how you've been taught to build and run a business—and give you permission to do it in a way that feels wildly natural. If you're ready to start honoring your energy and finding true momentum, hit play.   Learn more about your Human Design and get your full chart for free at https://www.nicolelaino.com/chart   To download the Secret Podcast on how to Build & Scale Your Business with Human Design click here: nicolelaino.com/secretpodcast  Be sure to visit nicolelaino.com/podcastlinks for all of the current links to events, freebies, and more!

What really makes a Manifestor tick—and why does their energy feel so different from everyone else's? In this episode, we're kicking off a special series focused on the five Human Design types, starting with the bold and often misunderstood Manifestor. You'll learn what defines a Manifestor in the chart, why their energy is so unique, and how understanding their signature and not-self themes—peace and anger—can transform the way they lead, create, and connect. Nicole shares the common patterns she sees when working with Manifestors, including how their creative urges work, why they often feel unsupported, and the powerful shifts that happen when they learn to inform and trust their inner knowing. There are also some great real-world examples (including a funny story about Tom Cruise) that bring these concepts to life. Whether you are a Manifestor or just want to understand them better, this episode offers a grounded and eye-opening look at what it means to lead with vision—and how to stop holding yourself back in the process.  Listen now!   Learn more about your Human Design and get your full chart for free at https://www.nicolelaino.com/chart   To download the Secret Podcast on how to Build & Scale Your Business with Human Design click here: nicolelaino.com/secretpodcast  Be sure to visit nicolelaino.com/podcastlinks for all of the current links to events, freebies, and more!

Welcome back to another episode of the Best Kept Secret podcast show with your host with the most-DJ Jon Lockley. The ole randomizer wheel did so well choosing last month's genre, that the Lockstar decided to give it another spin. This time around, she stopped on Drum and Bass. Now this is a first for Jon as he has never made a Drum and Bass mix before. Oh yes, back in the day he dabbled around with the Drum and Bass on vinyl, but he never even attempted to make a full on mix of it. So, here we go folks. It's the Lockstar's debut mix of some jump up, filthy, nasty beats and bass that will have you needing to take a seat when it's done.. The whole mix is mint, but the first 30 minutes is on another level. As always, if you dig what you're hearing, like, comment, and share with your friends.

I've started 9 businesses in 12 years. No wonder I'm exhausted.Here's what I would do differently if I were starting today, which is actually what I did to start my latest business.Note: if you want to be a solo consultant or freelancer, that's different than I'm talking about in this episode. That's a fine choice but it will have very different considerations.Also, I said make $100k in annual revenue before committing to the business. That might be too high. Maybe $50k is the number, but I wouldn't go below that.Lastly, I said I hope to never talk about starting a business again, but I don't actually mind talking to you about it if you'd like. I just don't like listening to podcasts, and wouldn't like to go on podcasts talking about it  Get in touch with me here -http://hireteamup.com/contact-isaac

Welcome back to another episode of the Best Kept Secret podcast show with your favorite DJ, Jon Lockley. Jon put a post up on his Facebook page recently asking what the people wanted to hear, got their suggestions, and spun the randomizer wheel. It must be fate, considering Jon resides in the "O-Town," as it landed on Florida Breaks. If you don't know what Florida Breaks are, then you might be too young or hate history. Either way, let's break it down for you.  Florida Breaks is funky but futuristic, and dirty but danceable. It was a staple in Florida club scenes, warehouse parties, and raves, especially from the late ‘90s to mid-2000s. Picture neon lights, palm trees, and sweaty dancefloors filled with breakdancing and bass-hungry ravers. The Lockstar has rummaged through his old vinyl, searched the internet far and wide, and found some of the absolute staple tracks from back in the day. Some of these tracks are 25-30 years old, but could still rock a dancefloor today. It includes tracks from some of the pioneers like Tony Faline, DJ Icey, Infiniti, Rick West, DJ Sharaz and more. Get ready for some Miami bass, some funky drummin', some scratchin', and melodic hooks that bring back that nostalgic feel. As always, if you like what you're hearing, like, comment and share. Enjoy the journey! Oh, there's one special bonus track at the end.Tracklist:1.       Jackal & Hyde-Freaks Come Out at Night(Night of the Living Bassheads Mix)2.       Infiniti-Running Away3.       Sugarwood-Break @ Dawn4.       DJ Volume & DJ Sharaz-Get Loose(DJ Sharaz Mix)5.       Tony Faline-Break Down6.       DJ Fixx-Don't Stop7.       DJ Fixx-Rock That Beat8.       The All Star Breakers-Break to the Bass9.       DJ Icey-Talk To ‘Em10.   Brad Smith-Let The Beat Hit “Em11.   Mike & Charlie-I Get Live(Dave London Mix)12.   Kosheen-Catch(Brad Smith Mix)13.   Paul Van Dyk-We Are Alive(DJ Icey's Arctic Bass Mix)14.   Electronic Love(Freestyle Project Mix)15.   West Coast Prost!-Beer Barrel Polka(Roll Out the Barrel)
