The Power of Oxygen 1st
When my son was little, I was a single mom who was doing it all alone. I was putting everyone else first and my own needs last. To everyone around me, I was successful but little did they know that my success was tied to pushing, stressing, sleepless nights and early morning workouts pushing my body and my limits to the extreme. Until one day I was flying alone and nearly crashed an airplane and I realized that I needed to take care of my own needs first before anyone else. You see, when you’re a pilot, if you have any issues in the plane, you put on your oxygen mask 1st, not your passengers. They need you to land the plane.
This podcast is all about this journey to healing, to getting clear on the desires of your heart… and stepping into them with courage while leaning into, asking for and receiving support. I hope you feel inspired to do less, to follow your passions and infuse them into your daily life and truly claim the life you were meant to live: a life filled to the brim with epic ADVENTURE.
The Power of Oxygen 1st
EP 112: Human Design for Business Owners: Stop Forcing, Start Flowing with Jackie Smythe
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if the reason your business feels heavy isn't because you're doing it wrong—but because you're doing it in a way that was never designed for you?
I sit down with Human Design expert Jackie Smythe to explore how understanding your energetic blueprint can completely transform the way you work, lead, delegate, and show up in your business.
We break down what Human Design actually is (hint: it's not just another personality test), explore the five energy types, and get real about what it means to build a business aligned with how you're naturally wired—not how hustle culture tells you to operate.
Jackie does a live reading of my chart on the podcast, revealing why I've always felt "different," why I was told to be quiet my whole life as a Manifester, and how my psychic intuition and pattern-interrupting energy actually show up in my Human Design. We also talk about my son's Projector energy and how understanding his design has completely shifted how I parent.
In This Episode, You'll Learn:
- What Human Design is and why it's the clearest picture of who you are at your core
- The five energy types and how they operate
- Why Manifesters like me are natural initiators and change-makers—but need rest and solitude to recharge
- How to use your Human Design chart to refine your business messaging and offers
- The "not-self theme" for each energy type and how to recognize when you're out of alignment
- Why understanding your team's (and family's) Human Design can transform your relationships
- How Jackie used Human Design to leave a toxic marriage and build a multi-six-figure business from authentic self-expression
