Hello and welcome to the Limitless Entrepreneur Podcast everyone. I’m your host, Nicole Laino, and we’re here with another episode. It’s just you and me today. I want to give you guys in this episode a real clear picture of exactly what human design can be used for, because we talk about human design, obviously a lot on this show, and I know so many of you are, are interested in this, you’re either practicing it or you’re thinking about it, or you’re dipping your toe in the water. And I understand that, first of all, I believe and it’s been my experience with the dozens of people that I’ve worked with on this.

I think we’re, we’re approaching like 70 people or something who have come into my world. Well, more if I’m counting readings who’ve come into my world to work with human design with me. that I’ve seen this at work and the impact that it can have, and I wanna make sure that’s clear to you because I know how these things can be taken.

Sometimes people think that human design is like a personality test, which there’s an element of that, that feels like a personality test. It’s not subjective and it’s much more of a process that it gives you, um, a lot of personality tests. It’s like, okay, that’s cool. What do I do with this now?

Is usually the question that we’re left with. so human design actually gives you a process to follow. It actually tells you, okay, here you are. This is who you are. Now, this is how you’re going to use this in your life. This is how you can use it to make an impact on you and everybody that you know. as opposed to it being like, oh, I’m an INTJ or whatever, and whatever that means to me.

So like, oh, I’m an introvert and then that sort of becomes an excuse, and that is not what human design is. It is not an excuse to be less of something. It is your permission to be everything that you are and it gives you a process to support that. meditation is this beautiful practice that I have been practicing for over 10 years.

I have been a daily meditator for over 10 years. It is irreplaceable in my life. There is no way you will ever get me to give up on meditation. Why? Because I’ve seen how much space it creates in my mind, in my energy. It clears me, but during the day, I can’t just meditate. Oh, I can’t meditate all day. You know, I have to get things done.

It’s not servicing my life moment to moment. It’s having a big impact that’s over and broadly reaching because it affects how I enter into my day, which is why I do it every morning. And I do it at another session in the afternoon. But the moment to moment how I’m running my business.

It’s not gonna be like meditation. So some of these, there’s lots of energetic practices. There’s lots of these. I want you to understand that there’s a bit of the woo-hoo spiritual side of human design, but it is much more practical. And me being a five one manifesting generator, five, one, I’m about making things practical.

I don’t think about anything. I don’t spend my time doing anything if there’s not a practical application to it, because that’s just how I’m built, and I’ve always been that way. Which is hugely freeing for me because I don’t have to apologize. I’m always just talking about how you can use things, and I’m not talking about the depth of it all the time.

I want you to know how to use it. That’s my genius. That’s what I do. I universalize information. I universalize systems, I take it, I embody it. I figure out how I can use it in new and innovative ways that make it easier and more efficient for people to both understand and use, and then I share it.

That’s my jam as a 5/1. And that’s what this episode is about. I want you to see how practically you can apply human design in all the ways in your life. That it can change things for the better for you and your family and your team and your colleagues and the people that you interact with. Okay? So I wanna show you that in this episode.

That is my goal with this episode. now just a few little news things. I wanna let you know that we have a contest running.

I would love to have you on. Now, the other things that we have, we have two free guides, human design guides that will help you start to have practical application of this information. So how you can use human design to start experiencing transformation. More inward transformation, which leads to external results.

So that’s our deconditioning guide. If you’re interested in that, you can go to Nicolelaino.me/decondition. That’s a free guide on how you can start to live more in alignment, less in the way that you were taught. Less in the way of shoulds and into the alignment of who you really are and hitting the gas on all of your strengths.

So that’s that guide. And then we have another one, which is called the Flow-ductivity Guide. Now this is how you can be more productive, but still remain in flow, how you can experience more expansion and space while getting more done. If you’re interested in that guide. You can get it at Nicolelaino.me/productivity, and we’ll link all of this up in the show notes for you.

The contest, the Deconditioning Guide, the Flow-ductivity Guide. All of those links will be in the show notes if you need them. Just hop on over there and we will magically transport you to all of those landing pages. Okay, now let’s get to the episode. Now, sorry, one last thing. We are gonna have a masterclass coming up, I believe it’s March 8th, that we are gonna have coming up.

You will start to see some, some information about that coming up. Mark your calendars. You’re going to wanna be there for this one. If this episode interests you, this is gonna be something that you’re gonna, you’re gonna really want, cause this is gonna be a deep dive into the things that we’re talking about here.

Basically, how you can make more money using human design without adding hours to your day. Or workload to your, to your schedule. Okay. Gonna be hugely impactful. I’m gonna share a lot in that. Okay. Now let’s get to the practical applications of human design. Now, human design, I’m gonna go through a list of all the things that you can use it for.

I’m gonna tell you how you can take this information and how you can start, exactly what the result will be for you. This will result in X. Okay? And we’re gonna start with your life, and then we’re gonna move on to your business. Some of these are interchangeable. You’re gonna see some aspects of things that you know, I’m gonna talk about some, and it’s gonna be like, this is obviously there’s a big benefit to your life, but you know, this is a business show.

We do cater to the entrepreneurial industry here. So a lot of this is gonna be geared toward business, but there’s so much of it that’s gonna be like, oh, I see how I could apply this to my life. Now we’re gonna start with the life ones and then we’ll get to the business because the business list is longer. so your life, how you can benefit, how you can use human design in your life. If you’re learning about your design, you’re inherently learning about design in general. You’re inherently learning about that if you know what defined centers are and open centers are, how we experience them, what the experience of having a defined G center versus having an open G center.

We understand these things, so as you’re understanding that you can understand other people better. So what this leads to, so one of the big practical applications of this is by you learning your human design and diving into human design, you can start to parent by design. So if you are a mom or a dad, you can start to, and it doesn’t matter how old your kids are, the younger the better because you’re starting them earlier, but you can start without having to explain it to them.

You can start to see who they are through their chart. You can start parenting the child with total honor for who they are rather than what’s convenient for you or what you think is right, because that’s what conditioned you in the first place, and that’s what you’re doing all the deconditioning work for, is to unwind all the things that you know, our parents made us feel, usually with the best intentions.

They didn’t mean to condition us. They weren’t like, I know that this isn’t the way you are, but I’m gonna force you into it. It’s the way they are. It’s the way they naturally are. So they looked at you being like, you should be able to do this. Do it. Here’s what you’re doing wrong and they don’t know that maybe that’s not the way that you’re designed and it was actually destructive to push you in that way on that thing. you get to be different. So parenting by design. Life changing. I have a five year old. I understand his design, I understand him. I know how to build him up. He’s a 5/1one like me. So I’m able to look at him and understand how I can create the most supportive environment for what is kind of a difficult profile and interesting, complex profile to have and I will be able to understand some of the things that he deals with and see things through that lens. I mean, I have the benefit of being that, so I understand it. However, there are so many other aspects of his design that are different than mine. I mean, honestly, the rest of it’s different. He’s a splenic projector.

So, even knowing what his energy levels are like, how to support him in that, how to support him in school, how to speak to his teachers, how they can get the best out of him, how they can communicate with him best. It’s really life changing for you and your kids. It’ll create a much more harmonious environment, not only with your children, but the next one is compassion for others.

Now, compassion for others -your spouse, your partner, your family, human design allows you to see people for who they are rather than who you wished they could be and one of the gifts of human design is also recognizing that there is no wrong or right. There is no bad good. There’s low frequency and there’s high frequency. That someone being a certain way, first of all, isn’t personal to you.

You could start seeing it as, it’s not that they were bad to you, it’s that they’re at a low frequency of something that they are. and that’s just that the way that they’re acting is just an artifact or either emotional trauma or through human design through just a low expression of something that actually could be great.

So, it allows you to see the potential in others. It allows you to see and not take personally the way that they are. And if you listen to my Prince Harry episode that I did two episodes ago. I think it was episode number 1 35, the Prince Harry episode. I talk about the family dynamics and I talk about how, you know, it sounds like from his book, how he was feeling like his brother shied away from him, that he wasn’t, they weren’t as close as they once were, that he felt like there was this wall between them.

And one of the things is that Williams profile is a two five. and they can be somewhat reclusive. There’s also, he’s dealing with two projections there. One being looking into the two and seeing William for all that he is. And then the five, which is seeing what you want him to be or how he’s lacking it, putting him up on a pedestal and maybe seeing how he’s not living up to an expectation that you have.

So some of those things, that Harry naturally felt if he knew about how William was built, maybe, I don’t know. But the potential is there that he might not have seen it as such an affront to him and just seen it that, oh, that’s just the way he’s designed. It’s not him being that way to me.

He might have approached, could approach the relationship differently. so it allows you to have more compassion for others and see them for who they are in life. You feel better. Knowing your design, knowing who you are, knowing your purpose, knowing what you’re here to do, who you’re here to be, and who you’re here not to be, and to stop pouring energy into that, allows you to stand up for yourself, allows you to have just greater confidence overall.

And feel free to feel free, totally free. What other people say about you has less of an effect on you. One, cuz you’re looking at it not like you’re taking it all personally. And two, you know, things just roll off of you a little bit easier. And two, because you’re not being triggered cuz you’re clear, you’re emotionally more aligned, you’re energetically more aligned.

And that just creates space. Now moving on to business. So those are the key life benefits. Moving on to business. Moving on to how you can use this in your business, cuz I know so many of you are wondering, okay, if I invest in human design, what am I gonna get out of this? And it can seem a little bit fluffy, right?

Like, what am I really gonna get out of it? Is it just like, oh, my conscious Sun is my brand? Like I know that I read that on Instagram. Sure. You have to dig into it a little bit deeper than that, a lot deeper. There’s more of a, there’s obviously a lot more work to do in there to really have that work for you.

But I wanna show you exactly what is on the other side of when you start the journey of human design through your business. so for people who feel like they are doing all the things, but not getting the results. Maybe you’re not, you don’t feel like you’re getting as much done, or you’re as productive as the hours you’re spending feel like you should be.

If I’m spending this many hours, I feel like more should be done. I feel like I should be further along. I feel like I should be getting more done, or I feel like I should be getting more money if I’m doing all of this work. Well, human design can help you really discern what are the correct things for you to do and what are not and how to get yourself into gear faster if you find that you.

But where, you know, it takes you a while to get going or you stare at a blank screen when you go to write content or you don’t know where to start, you don’t know what the correct things are for you to prioritize. It just makes you productive overall because what it’s doing is allowing you to use your design.

As a manifesting generator, I have a way of operating that I don’t waste time anymore. I don’t sit and, and futs around. I’m either nurturing myself in a very specific way to my type and authority, or I am wildly productive and working. Otherwise, you’ll find me just enjoying myself. So it makes you more productive while creating more space, not more work.

 The other thing that it does that you’ll see in your business is it’s easier to make big moves. It’s easier, you hear this in business a lot. You have to make big moves. You have to take these big, these big leaps. And yes and no. You have to take big leaps. You have to take chances. You have to step outside of your comfort zone, but not just for the sake of stepping out of your comfort zone or making a big move, that’s the not self. That’s you hearing a message of, I need to make big moves and then that person conveniently selling you a high ticket program that feels like a big move and you making it, but you’re doing it because you were told to.

You’re doing it because of the feeling of lack, not because it was truly in alignment for you. Human design helps you discern what big moves are correct for you. You’re so emotionally clear. You are so aligned and you have so much trust in yourself because you have your process. This, I cannot stress this enough.

I have a whole workshop, it’s a three part workshop if you’re interested in it. It’s on my website. It’s called Trust. Trust is the key element in any entrepreneurial business. If you don’t have trust, you are in trouble. You will spend a lot of money, you will spend a lot of time, you will have a lot of heartache, trust me, have been there.

If you don’t have trust in yourself, you’re just going to be doomed to, usually it ends up in a lot of overspending and a lot of shiny object syndrome because you’re looking for the answers outside of yourself. And that can be an element of your human design that’s causing you, you might be more predisposed to that.

But trust in yourself is not negotiable. You need to have trust in yourself and you’ll notice that everything in your business changes when you do. You won’t need to know if you have trust, you’re just gonna start to see results. So big moves come when you have trust in yourself and you get trust in yourself because human design gives you a process to make aligned decisions and the strategy.

So, what do I mean by that? I mean that trust in yourself comes from the ability to discern whether something is correct for you or not. When you are so grounded in that. So, someone comes to you for something, they offer you something, they offer you a product, they offer to join your team, they tell you they can build you a funnel, they tell you that they can run your back office, and these are all things that you want or things that you have on your list that you need. But is it right for you? Are you in the right energy? Are you, are you making this right move at the right time? Are you making this investment at the right time? Because big moves usually correlate with big investment, either of time, resources or, otherwise, you know, or money.

But when you have a process to make your decisions. Now if you’re a projector, you know that invitations are gonna be the way that things are coming to you and then you have your authority that’s helping you make those decisions and decide is this the correct invitation for me or not? 

Generators manifesting generators, we’re responding. We’re responding to things, we’re picking up the breadcrumbs, we’re moving. So when we get an idea about something and we think we have a sacral response and we just do it and it doesn’t work, that’s not really in alignment. That’s probably what got you to bad investments, bad investment of your resources, your time, your energy and your money.

It probably got you to this point of feeling plateaued or stuck in the first place. The way you change it is when you start to see that and that’s what human design does. It gets to you to see where you’ve made mistakes. . It’s not meant to be dogmatic, it’s meant to be empowering, and that’s the way I teach it versus some of the dogmatic teaching that’s out there for human design.

You can’t do this or you can’t do that. You can do anything you want. It’s do you feel empowered by the move and that’s what we help you discern. But when you’re making decisions, this is how you’re not at the mercy of people’s branding. This is how in their marketing, this is how you’re not at the mercy of being sold to.

You are not only an informed consumer, you are a powerful, empowered, informed consumer where you’re able to very powerfully stand there, listen to somebody’s pitch and say, okay, I will get back to you. Or No, this isn’t right for me. I’m a hell yes, we’re in, let’s do this. And then you take the move, you take the step in total strength and power. This is life changing, it’s game changing and this is how things start to change. This is how the same investment made in fear that doesn’t get you the result you’re making it in total confidence in yourself. so that’s a cornerstone of your business that human design takes care of for you.

Branding. Yes, it does help you with your brand. It does help you decide things like lead generation strategy. , what’s the right platform for you to be on? What’s the right way for you to connect with leads? What’s the right way? And not right or wrong, but what’s the way that’s gonna be the most efficient use of your energy?

What’s the way that you are, I refer to this sort of as the attraction equation. What’s the best way for you to attract? What is the best method for you to use to connect with an audience? And what platforms can you use? There are lots of factors. Do you have a defined throat center?

Do you have an open throat center? Are you a generator? Are you a projector? What is your profile line? We take all of this into consideration to figure out what that attraction equation is for. And then what are key factors of your brand? If you listen to Kim’s episode, it was a while back, it was how Kim made 10 K in five days.

And we talk about how we used her gene keys and we used her human design to kind of rebrand and we didn’t even get deep into it. We just made some tweaks that gave her some ideas. She responded, she moved, waited out her wave, she moved on it, and then she was able to put together this awesome retreat where she made 10K in five days.

 That was even just the tip of the iceberg for her. The work that we’ve done with her since has blown up and changed so much for her and that’s totally through human design and through her being empowered through her design and leaning into the strengths of her specific design.

So it can do that for your branding. So if you’re confused about your brand or you feel like you don’t stand out, then human design can help figure out what are your key aspects that will make you will, that will differentiate you in the marketplace, that will help position you as the expert and position you with strength.

It helps you find your X factor, like that’s kind of how I refer to this. Your voice, your unique quality. You’re seeing me do this, this podcast. The way I structure these episodes, the voice of my brand, I, the practical way that I approach things, the way that I speak. I used to be afraid. I had a coach tell me once that I was too direct in the way that I was speaking, that I sounded bossy, that I sounded, um, that I sounded like I was telling people what to do and she was coming from her perspective. But at the time in my career, I took what a coach told me very seriously, and I was like, oh my God, I shouldn’t be that.

Because I didn’t have my process, because I didn’t know what was correct for me, because I didn’t know what my strengths were. I was just like, she’s the expert. I hired her, so she must be right. I’m doing it wrong and you know what? My sales started to tank. I lost a lot of my confidence. You know why? Because that’s exactly who I’m supposed to be.

I’m supposed to tell people what to do, and if it’s not right for you, then I’m not right for you, and that’s okay. But that’s part of my X factor, and she was taking it away. So, and not her fault, she didn’t know what she was doing, but I coach people differently, and this is part of what human design can show for you, how you can develop your very specific voice, how you can be completely empowered in it, and a hundred percent into this is who I am, this is what I have to offer, and you’re for me or you’re not.

And either is fine. It can show you your primary shadow patterns. This is a huge key factor for me and how I work with people. And how this shows up. If you find that you are stuck, If you find that you have plateaued, this does sort of fall under the, like I’m doing all the things and it’s not working.

If you feel like your revenue is not where you want it to be and you feel stuck, or if you have money mindset problems, you see them as money mindset problems, usually we can find it in your primary shadow pattern. Your primary shadow patterns are key elements of your chart that show you where you are veering off course that are most likely patterns in your life.

It didn’t just happen once. They happen repeatedly. They happen and they’re sneaky, they’re subtle, but we can start to call them out. And to start to bring them into the light and rapid change comes from that. And it’s not just rapid change, it’s sustainable change and it tells us what our next moves are.

So that’s how, if you feel like you are stuck and you don’t know why, or you feel like you have energetic blocks, primary shadow patterns, that’s kind of a method that I use, to pull those out and where those might be showing up for you. if you find that you are burned out, you have been working a lot, maybe you’re a one woman show or you have a small team and you’re feeling like I’ve made it to the six figure mark, but making it to multiple six feels impossible cuz I’m tapped out already.

I’m already burnt out. Or maybe you’re not at that six figure mark and you’ve just created so many offers and you’ve thrown so many things at the wall and you’ve tried to make so many different aspects of your business work and they’re not quite there, so you’re tired and it’s making the goals that you have seem like they are not possible.

If that’s the case, then human design sort of shows you where you are making those key mistakes that are keeping you where you’re at. and it can call out and show you one, how to take care of yourself. Cuz it’s inherent in your design. You can’t just go, go, go all the time. Nobody’s meant to do that. Nobody’s meant to do that.

And as a generator, it shows you how to do the things that people tell you to do that maybe you’re not doing. Not just self-care like a bubble bath, cuz it’s scheduled on the calendar and you are supposed to do it, but listening to yourself and you know, just going out for a walk or going for a drive or going to the park to work or something because it feels right. because your sacral says yes and following it even though it doesn’t make sense. So some of those things are just built into simple strategy and authority, but others are gonna show you some primary shadow pattern can show you what your cure for burnout is. So what’s the cause?

And it can also give you the prescription. It can also tell you, show you where you’re probably burning out or what part of your system is burning you out or how are you working? Are you a projector? And you are showing up and giving all the time and you’re not using your energy in a way that’s efficient or effective.

I have all these gifts and no one’s seeing them. So you push and you push and you push and you chase people and you try to be visible and you’re doing all these things. I need to be more visible. I need to be more out there. I need to tell people my value. No, not really. That’s probably not gonna work.

And you’re gonna burn out. That’s why you’re burned out now. Human design gives you a new way to look at yourself. And if you’re curious about that, Lindsay White, who was on this show, she talks about that, how she was sort of in that place and she was burned out and human design knowing that she was a projector and how she operates, saved her in a lot of ways.

And she started to call in these aligned projections when all of the aligned invitations as a projector when all of the ways that when she was chasing people and she was showing up and creating all these offers and doing all these things, and then all she had to do was make some simple shifts in the way that she approached things, made her feel better, gave her space in her calendar, gave her space in her life, and ultimately built her up, built her confidence, and then people just started to reach out to her.

This is the energetic game. This is how you get to make more, work less. Okay. It tells you what you sell, what you’re meant to sell, and how you sell it. It doesn’t necessarily mean that you can only sell the things that are in your chart, but it does let you know what kind of your, this is an X factor that kind of pulls together what your selling strategy is, how you will naturally pull people in what your vibe is and just kind of what’s gonna be the easiest for you. And you can start to experiment with it. And most people who do are like, oh, I, this is just so easy for me. Kim had part of that, that’s in her episode as well.

And then building your team. Building your team. There are great people out there that could work with you. But are they right for you? Are they right for you? Are they going to plug the holes in your business? Are they going to be the people who are the necessary pieces that your business is missing?

Because that’s really what you want, not just task managers. You want people to come in who have the right gifts and the right talents and the right strengths that fill the areas where you are not as strong. You don’t need somebody to come in who’s just like you. You need somebody to come in who’s going to, if you’re a projector, you’re probably gonna want a generator.

You’re gonna want somebody who can do and do and do if they’re implementing for you. If you’re a manifesting generator and you are doing a lot of the work, and maybe you have a team already, you might wanna bring a projector, OBM on, or somebody who’s overseeing things for you and can maybe see and have key elements of your chart.

There’s also something called the Penta, which are key elements. It’s a chart that we run where we are looking at three or more people, at a go where there are key energies we’re looking for that a business would have, and we’re seeing what’s missing. so we can see that in the Penta chart, and we can run a chart for multiple team members at a time and pull together what your business Penta looks like.

So there are so many practical applications to this, to this system. Like I say it, it’s life changing, it’s business changing. But I wanted to show you like this is what she actually can do with it. This is, and some of these are the results that come from it. Like Lindsay has signed on these aligned clients where she was not doing, like, you can listen to her episode, um, Lindsay White, where she was not anywhere where she wanted to be.

She was doing a lot of work and she was feeling bitterness, the not sell theme of the projector, which is just like, nobody’s seeing me. Why is nobody seeing my gifts? Why am I not making the money? I’m investing all this, and why is nobody seeing me? Why is none of it working? And then she made her shifts and then suddenly she’s getting business from like perfect dream clients.

And that’s the magic. Kim- no clients before she came into my program and now, now she’s got a whole new business model where she’s actually mapping out, like probably how, like if she wants to transition from her corporate career into being an entrepreneur full-time. She’s figuring that out now, but she has a path for it.

If she chooses it now, she just has to choose and decide if it’s correct for her. She’s waiting out her wave, she’s going through her process in figuring that out, and we’re supporting her in that. That’s the difference. And everybody I work with, everyone that I work with, gets to the point of this unshakeable confidence, which is priceless. So I want you to see this, that was important to me. This was on my heart to share with you. And to get you to see what you can do with this information. It’s not just information. These are changes that have far-reaching effects, more money, more time, more freedom in your life, greater connections with the people that are all around you, your family, your friends, and the people that you work with.

Easier attraction for clients, and then you can figure out when you have all of that happening and the energetic game is happening, then you’re just turning the dial up and you’re, you’re making it all get bigger and move faster without you necessarily having to be like, how do I do more? How do I do more?

How do I do more? Which is the trap that most of us are in until you start working the energetic game. So I hope you found this useful. I hope you loved the episode. If you did, please send me a DM in Instagram. I’m at Nicole Laino official. Let me know what you thought of it. Take a little screenshot, throw it into your stories.

I would love to see that in there. And I’ll share it with my audience as well. I’d love to highlight you there. Remember the two guides are available for you. The contest is available if you leave a review and take a snapshot of the review. Put that in your stories and tag me. You get entered into winning the HD coaching session reading, whatever you wanna do here on the show.

I hope you enter that and I hope I get to meet you there. And I hope I get to hear from you in some way, shape, or form cause I love connecting with you guys. Now remember, you are only limited by the limitations that you accept. And when you stop accepting those limitations, that is when you become limitless.

So go out there and be limitless everyone. I will see you in the next episode.
