Ep. 161: Human Design is a Tool for High Performance

In this episode we discuss the five energy types in Human Design with an emphasis on how they create high and low performance in a person. We can all improve our performance at work, sports, hobbies, relationships, health, anything, if we lean into our Human Design. But on the flip side, we can also become very low performers if we resist our design. We're focusing on the Energy Types in this episode, but you can learn so much more about becoming a high performer if you master all areas of your chart. Booking a 1:1 reading, applying for business coaching, or taking the 6 Weeks to Manifestation Mastery course are all great ways to step up your Human Design understanding and become a higher performer in life.To take your manifestation and Human Design abilities much further and deeper, check out the Six Weeks to Manifestation Mastery Course.
