In this opening episode of Living Your Design, Kelsey dives into the big question: What even is Human Design? From its roots in multiple ancient and modern systems to its radical potential as a tool for self-awareness and energetic alignment, this conversation invites you into a new framework for living in alignment with your authentic self.

In this podcast, we'll explore Human Design not as a belief system or dogma, but as a living, breathing experiment — one that invites you to let go of control, embrace your own unique frequency, and begin the deeply transformative journey of deconditioning. Whether you're brand new to Human Design or revisiting it with fresh eyes, this episode lays the groundwork for the journey ahead.


What's discussed in this episode:

  • What Human Design actually is — and what it’s not
  • Its synthesis of astrology, the I-Ching, Kabbalah, the Chakra system, and quantum physics
  • The origins of HD
  • Why HD is not about morality, performance, or external validation
  • Human Design as an alternative framework to capitalism and homogenization
  • How it can support us during times of personal and global transition
  • The distinction between truth of form and conditioned distortion
  • The spiral nature of deconditioning and cellular transformation
