Ep 86 | What does it really mean to be emotional or non-emotional in Human Design?

After hosting two back-to-back retreats, I kept hearing the same question come up: "What does it actually mean to be emotional or non-emotional in Human Design?". So I decided to revisit one of the most downloaded episodes on the podcast and give it new life.

In this solo episode, I break down the foundational difference between defined and undefined Solar Plexus energy, what that means for your emotional experience, how to work with your authority (instead of fighting it), and why understanding this piece is crucial for relationships, self-trust, and nervous system regulation.

Whether you’re brand new to Human Design or deep in your experiment, this episode will help you tune into your emotional wave, or your spontaneous knowing with more compassion, clarity, and confidence.
