Whether you're a mother, A parent to be, or simply seeking a more harmonious family rhythm. This conversation will leave you feeling inspired to parent with greater purpose, presence, and peace. It's a good one. So let's jump in. 

Lydia: All right. Well, welcome back to the Live Wholly You podcast. I'm so excited to welcome Alana.

Alana: Hi, I'm so excited to be here and join you on your podcast. 

Lydia: It's so good to chat with you again. I feel like I could already, I'm like, I feel like I could talk to you forever.  Yeah. But I would love to go ahead and kick off this conversation, uh, just by hearing a little bit about what it is that you do and specifically how you got to what it is that you offer now doing human design and the connection with parenting with human design.

Alana: Yeah, so it's kind of a long journey and a long story. So I will keep it succinct as I am known for talking. Um, so my main work is around raising the frequencies of the frequency of mothers, uh, women and their families through the lens of human design, but a little bit more than that. And so my signature program is Parenting by Design and, um, what really brought this.

evolution into play was basically my own journey into motherhood. So I was a molecular scientist and a typical in the rabbit run. I like to call it, you know, work hard, climb the ladder. And then when it came to having babies, um, I experienced a lot of difficulty around that and that whole journey was  an unfolding, but obviously at the time, it doesn't feel like it where.

There was so many struggles, and I had to really let old beliefs die so that I could expand into opportunities, um, and mainly because I was told that after everything I had been through, the trauma to my womb, that children  Probably wouldn't be possible due to the damage done and I just did not believe that and  at the time I was a woman who probably ignored my cycle and my womb a lot.

Um, and so it was reconnecting to my body, to my intuition, to my cycle,  and specifically to my womb and then  shedding these beliefs around the fact that. Because science told me so, and the stats and the data tell me this, um, but my heart says otherwise,  didn't make the facts true. Do you know what I mean?

Like for myself, like my journey could unfold. Um, and so there was this whole journey, and I, I did, I felt, I fell pregnant, after some healing, took two years, but, um,  That was probably the very first part because then it, it showed me how much possible or how much limitations we hold on ourselves based by how we were brought up, um, because you just don't know unless you're exposed to things or other people where these sort of like miracles happen, but really.

What I learned through that, it was through my beliefs and I had to shift a lot of pain in my heart at that time to  get to that place. And it was when I healed my heart, my beliefs were able to soften and crumble and open to new potentials and opportunities.  And so once I became a mother, of course, the deep diving doesn't stop.

You continue because the next thing you know, you want to be, um, this best parent that you can be for this little babe that chose you. Do you know what I mean? Like, I had two miscarriages prior, and I believe that was him. It wasn't two different babies. It was him telling me, Mom, keep going. Like, or first one, because that was the one that led on to all the trauma and that it was like.

There needs to be some changes, you know, for me to come in and it wasn't going to happen without this like huge disruption. And the second one, remind her, keep going mom, like you're on the path. And I have goosebumps even telling you this. And so then it just, it kept unfolding. And then I found, um, this group that  I joined as I wanted to sort of help women on their journey to conceive.

And I got introduced to human design and it took a few sort of like, Dabbles before all of a sudden I realized and that it took my son, you know, obviously to be more than a baby.  I think he was, um, he was probably one when I really started to see like his character. And I think. I remember vividly sitting in my lounge room, and I sat there and I watched something that he did, I can't remember what it was, but I just, it's like all of a sudden, the bigness of his energy just hit me, and I was like, whoa,  I now know,  I had the same, I had the same, and  it was so big to handle, that, It was suppressed in me because it was, it was too much, you know, and then obviously understanding that he's a manifesting generator.

I'm a manifesting generator. You know, we'd be powerhouses. We move, we shuffle and he very much was into his body. He spoke later, but he moved a lot. Um, everything was through his body and I was just like, right. I already knew from this point that  I'm probably going to have to open my mind to. To things like I didn't want anyone else to interfere because I wanted to kind of like encourage that  and so the more that I began to dive into my own design one like first place really started to shift how I saw myself as a mother, how I showed up as a mother and then how I saw him as the soul that he came here to be and um, you know, I'm still in the in the throes of like postpartum and juggling it all and um, I then had another baby  and it just kept going to me, like, it just kept coming back to me.

And I just thought women need, well, mothers need to recognize themselves first, like, first return to body. Absolutely. Return to intuition. Absolutely. But to really hone in onto those things, like.  Understanding ourselves and when you've been conditioned for such a long time, like I'm sure there's many people on here who have been on this journey to unravel and decondition and change beliefs.

Um, but then you're still kind of like, well, who, who am I? And who was I before this? Um, and human design kind of gives this map, but  I can see how lots of people use it also as a limitation and I never want to convey it as a limitation or a box to kind of like trap us in or trap our children in.  Um,  but as a, as a tool to expand and help guide and keep them connected to their soul's mission, to their soul's purpose, their bright light and see the humans that then as adults shift the world.

That's coming, you know, um, and so I've played a really vital role in playing around with my family. And what I really loved with human design is noticing the intricacies and the dynamics between all of us, right? Like, yes, where I have my Children are both manifesting generators. I'm a manifesting generator.

My poor husband's a projector, and I only say Paul because  He has a lot of energy around him all the time. And he, he meets us because he can, right? He's borrowing all of ours, but I also see, um,  then how that affects him otherwise by trying to keep up all the time. And so I got really curious, you know, um, my son's emotional.

Behavior I knew could be seen as like bad, right? We label behavior as bad. We see behavior as if it's not deemed what we have been taught is appropriate, it's then not good. And so therefore, you know, the good girls and the good boys and all the labels and the praise comes in. Um,  And I, I want to say first, like, it's really hard because especially when it comes to praise, that's been so ingrained in us, right?

That  to take that pause and not use praise, like, you almost feel like, well, I should, but, oh, what, what words do I use? And encouragement can be a really hard shift, but that first step is.  First, just recognizing that, well, I could have said something different then. And then second, you then are going to sit in this really awkward phase of just like, oh,  I don't, oh, what should I say, you know, and  no words really come out.

And. Um, so it,  it's being brave to show up, even though it looks messy. And, um, so, you know, I'm in the thick of it myself and understanding the fit my family, John, as I said, he's emotional behavior. I was beginning to see, especially around my, my family, um, they have a little boy, like my brothers and that and.

He would just all of a sudden emotionally get really like worked up. And I thought, oh, and of course he's getting blamed for everything because, you know, he's the one emotionally showing it out. One, he's a manifesting generator. So he has part manifester energy. He wants to be on his own. And when he's in his creative flow, do not disrupt him.

And he's not afraid to say that. And yet we so quickly tell our children that. Um, No, you can't say that. Don't do that. Like, well, no, we can teach them that.  Well, and it's as myself as a mother, right? When my creative flow gets disrupted, anger, that theme of a manifesto, the not self theme of anger, maybe probably doesn't really do it justice, but it's.

The way that I feel in myself, even though as a pure manifesto, but other, um, people have explained it the same. It's like this course of, of energy comes through and when it gets disrupted, it has to go somewhere because energy doesn't disappear, right? It has to go somewhere. So all of a sudden, this is an explosion of emotional energy.

And that kind of comes through as anger. And for me, it can be as simple as I've got in my head. I've got my thousand one tasks that I'm doing. I'm doing the dishes. I'm getting the washing in all not in linear order. All it's a bit at a time. And I come back and it's kind of circular and it's messy. One, I couldn't forgive myself for being messy too.

Then if I'm going towards the hallway, cause that's the next part of the, the process  and my husband stands away and wants to give me a hug and I'm like, Oh, No, you know, and I would feel anger and I'd be like, why do I, why do I get angry? And then once I realized, well, hold on, I was in my creative flow.

Like I was in my jam and he kind of stopped that pathway and that's what comes out.  And so  super interested in the dynamics of family, right? Because how often do we quickly judge because it's not the same or things are different. Right. And, um, then how we.  But like, when you obviously have your partner and you, there's two different families coming together as well.

Right? And it's like understanding all of that. Anyway, and so then I realized he had this open emotional solar plexus. So I had to start saying to my son, well, you know, not my son as my husband. Whose energy is this? You know, we've got to start looking at it in the family dynamic. When we're around my family, a lot of us are on edge, right?

Because we don't want him to hurt the other, um, nephew and not that he ever hurt them, but it's like when he's the one getting all cranky and getting blamed, like, you do tend to just go there already walking on eggshells. And, um, so he's picking up on that for one. Like, we're going there nervous and we're like, Oh, and he's going to feel that.

And then. His nephew comes over, his cousin, and he's like,  I'm so excited. Like, I want to play. And then he's like, do you mean? And each time he's getting jacked up.  And so it comes out. And then with my daughter, right. We, my daughter and myself both have defined emotional solar plexus. So.  Now I know to pause and stop and  think when he's acting out, what's the message?

It's no longer, it's a form of bad behavior, but it's a form of communication. And if I'm looking after myself and filling my self care cup. I have then  that the space, the capacity between like, um, the action and reaction is bigger. So then I can choose to be like, well, hold on, actually, I'm not going to react and start yelling and don't get me wrong.

I always thought I'd never be the mom that yells, but when I'm overwhelmed. It is the first reaction, and it was something I experienced a lot in my own household. So of course it's going to go to these natural neuro pathways that have been built, um, and to disrupt them and change them takes time and effort.

So giving myself the grace to be like, okay,  I did yell. That's not how I wanted to behave. Um, I can now repair this. And second, what's my need that's not being met right now. Like, obviously I'm, I'm giving and giving and giving, but I'm not feeling myself.  And so I started to see how amazing this is in my own family and just me as a mom, like, I believe that, you know, our children chose us for a reason.

And I know that I wouldn't be this mother today if I didn't go through that loss and that trauma before. I would have been a very different person and, you know, they're forever your teacher and When we can start looking at our children as not these little beans to mold, but that they already come here with that.

How can we encourage that to grow? Um, they, of course, have their own lessons in life. So knowing that my son has a profile line three, he is. An experimenter. So sometimes I can be like, no, don't jump off that thing. It's too high. No, don't jump off that. You might get hurt. And he kind of has to figure these things out himself.

Of course, within safety, like, you still get to set the boundary. And, um, it really changed the way I even communicated. So.  And so I always ask yes, no questions, keep them tapped into that energy so that when they're grown up, they know what feels right. Because I find that as a mum myself, like, the hardest thing now is once you start deconditioning is like, well, what does feel right?

You know, like what does and so I'm still. Learning that for myself now, but if I can entrain at least, I don't know if entrain is the right word, but help my, encourage my children, right, to stay connected to that  again, then imagine the adult they will be and the things they will move in this world because they're unafraid to be like, no, that's not for me, but thank you.

Lydia: Wow. I love all of this conversation so much and especially that the ripple effect that it has on our children when, yeah, when we recognize who they are as people and also taking that, you know, that, that first kind of step of looking in at ourselves. And I, I love how much, and I've been. Loving your Instagram lately, uh, talking about like the, that the family energetics and how it does play off of each other.

And it isn't just one person. We aren't just an individual. Like it, you know, it is so important to be interlocked  and connected and aware of how those dynamics are, are interplaying. Um, so I have this question and it's one I've been wondering for myself as. A mom who I'm a manifester and I totally resonate with all of that, that you're saying about the, the, the anger and that all of that.

Um, but, and, and you kind of mentioned this already with not wanting to box our children in with this system. Um, and so that's something that I'm really. Like curious about and I think others might be wondering as well is because I've looked at my kids charts, but I couldn't tell you off the top of my head because I immediately had this fear of like, I'm going to project onto them when I think that this type is.

And it's not, like, none of my kids are manifestors, I remember that one.  So I'm like, I don't want to assume for them the person that they are based on their type. So can you speak to that a little bit? 

Alana: Yeah, well type is just one layer, right? It is really like how they move. And if you can begin to see, it's like the character, right?

That they come here to be and and see it more as an archetype rather than a fixed thing, because it's dynamic. It's fluid. Right? And when we get together with other people and dynamics, we are going to, so there's a part in there where you have hanging gates, right? And when two people come together, it can almost.

Complete a channel and therefore, like, while you were together, there's going to be an expression while you sit together. And then that's why, like, when I talk about with my someone, it gets, um, emotionally really heightened. The best thing to do is break or space from all of those people. Right? So.  One, I think it's remembering it's a tool.

Mom always knows best, but also can you begin to open your, your perceptions, your beliefs and change those, those, um, the ideas that you may have around who your child is supposed to be and just use it as a,  like, when, when I think of a map, you know, when you see an architect who comes in and they want to build this building, right?

They, they have that map, but it's not  Until it's come, like, to fruition that you see the life, like, they get to utilize that map and, and see what it looks like at the end. Right?  When we are looking at our children just through energy type, it is great because then you get to see, like, if you're the manifesto, right?

You are going to have periods of rest and you need to have time to pull back.  But what's really important, what I think about In energy types as a mom, you need to inform, but you also need to be informed and informing is not a lesson like a skill. Um, no, you got to learn that and. It's a really hard thing to do.

So you have to inform your children and your children still have to learn to inform you. Um, and then when it comes to  the next layer of just even knowing the type, you know, the communication part, how I was saying, you know,  SACRs need yes, no questions. And yes, no questions are really actually quite easy.

Um, I think it's harder when you've got to think of how to ask this question, um, openly for the non sacrals and that's like, I'm curious. I'm wondering if, can you talk to me about, um, and.  Then we're starting to tap our children into their innate flow, right? So then it's not really about boxing them in.

They're already doing it. They are already connected and they're just going to express that. And I think it's just  an important tool for mothers to just understand that, that this is what they need. It's, it's a need being met then in just the type, but obviously there's it. So much more to the chart than just the type, you know, you've got the profiles, the characters, who they come here to be, the centers, which, you know, sometimes can show us our children's sensitivity.

Um, again, my son with his emotional solar plexus, like he's very sensitive when I look at my daughter, she has an open head and open Ajna and  actually, I was going to do a real about this today, but she's going to be under a lot of pressure to know the answers and to be certain and. You know, you might look at that information and be like, yeah, but I don't really know how that relates to me, especially if you have young children.

But when they get older and you say to your open headed and open ajna child, Okay, we got to go, so go get your shoes, get your jacket, get your bag, and brush your teeth. Go do that while I, and you know, and you're running off to go get your things, and you come back and your child's in the room, done none of those things.

And you're like, what are you, you know, have you brushed your teeth? Why haven't you got it? And you're getting all worked up.  Your child doesn't have the ability to remember all of that in a way, like it, they need to be taught how to make lists and you as the mom, especially if they're younger, it's like, okay, I'm going to start typing it when we're going to run out the door.

These are things we need done. Maybe they're picture cards. If they're really young, maybe they're older, like, give them the skills that they're going to need in time to be able to maintain, like, retain that information because the open Ajna is to be fluid. In beliefs.  And so they're not kind of meant to hold on to that.

And we're getting cranky at our children for not retaining that information. Um,  and then you can go so deep into channels, but I really don't feel that as a mom, and when you're looking at the family dynamic, because we, we are an ecosystem, like mom is epicenter when mom's off the whole family's off. And so you've got to then, even if you didn't think or believe that when I said that, but.

I'm sure if you can replay back when you haven't been well, the whole family's off that we are interconnected by invisible threads. And when we can start to tap into this one, it gives us grace, right? Gives us grace and space and it gives compassion to be able to see each other for who we are and that we are all.

Contributing in our unique way. Yeah, so I think it's when just to answer that question,  it's more more about allowing it to blossom, but then also being able to meet the needs of the Children rather than being like, no, my child can't because we express all parts of the chart of the chart.  It's either defined, and that's what we put out into the world, and that's meant to be kind of like our soul curriculum, right?

That's what we're here to either learn, express, but that's what we put out and we give into the world. Because again, beyond the family, we are contributing, um, collectively and then our open centers is what we are taking in from the environment and amplifying and in that  process, we are able to sort of better see things.

Um, you know, like my son's going to be able to understand emotions and, you know, my daughter is going to be able to have an open mind when it comes to things and probably not be so convinced or peer pressured into like, this is the thing and this is the only option, you know, um, which I can now see. For myself, who has a closed Ajna, like how when I fell into science, how quickly that closed me off.

So, you know, we set the limitations ourselves at the end of the day. So, if you can remember that, and then just be curious and play with it and don't worry about getting it wrong. Don't worry about stumbling. Don't worry about yelling when you didn't want to yell. Um, and just come back and have a, have a conversation.

A moment off. Okay, let's just pick one thing to focus on if it's going to be energy type. And so I can ask them the correct question so we can communicate. Well, then let's just start here and then when that feels good at the next layer on. Um, yeah, but I really love the intricacy. So centers is my jam and my favorite part when it comes to families.

Lydia: Yeah, that's such good advice and that, that helps totally to answer my question. So I'm curious if you don't mind sharing, is your partner aware of human design, into human design? 

Alana: Okay. So I love this because I'm a walking embodiment of it, right? And I am with my children, but my husband is really on the opposite page, right?

And sometimes that's challenging because. You know, he's on his own path and that, again, has given me the ability to be like, well, no, just do the things that, like, I know this is going to be best for our family, but  my children also chose him as their dad. And he has his own lessons and maybe in time he will come around to it.

So  just the simple, the simple part, if we're looking at type in his projector energy, sometimes I really feel, and I'd love to know his parents, um,  charts that he was raised to be more generator type, like, you know, work hard, keep going, push self won't get results unless you, um, You know, do all those things and really the beauty in the projector is being able to be efficient.

So you don't need to do all of that for like, they're not here to have that traditional job. They're actually here to  do it in a shorter time frame and I do love that. He has this ability to see from a different perspective again. Sometimes that's really challenging for me unless I ask for it, but. I can now see that, right?

So I can be more compassionate  towards and gently guide, you know, to like, ask him the questions of like, well, what's feeling good for you, you know, at the end of the day, human design is really a tool just to tap back into our body and what feels good to us and trust that and know it's going to get us where individually we are meant to go. 

But obviously as a family, it's like.  It's relationship at the end of the day. Do we want to raise our relationships with our Children, with our partner as a whole? Or are we going to be like fragmented and try and keep it stagnant? Like, we're dynamic, we're evolving and it's moving. So, um, yeah, looking at it from that perspective, rather than like how you said individual, individual, individual, like we.

are all playing a role together. And we chose that.  

Lydia: So to the mother who is maybe wanting to dive into this a little bit more, wanting to learn more about, um, her design, her children's design, uh, what, like, what does your program look like? Just tell us a little bit about that. 

Alana: Yeah, sure. So I obviously have multiple ways that you can work with me.

Program would be an absolutely great way to start. Um, you can also just book readings with me and we go into more in depth specifically for you, but, um, the program is a great place to start where you can start to, like, pull the information out yourself. So,  um, why parenting by design is a reframe is like, it's not just about raising our kids.

It's, it's about seeing your child through their unique soul lens. So that's kind of the purpose of the. The program and then not just human design. As I said, I feel like we can begin to use that as a limitation rather than an expansive tool.  I use in Parenting by Design, um, if you this analogy of a window pane, right?

So the idea is to expand our perception and. Um, instead of this little tunnel that we're looking at. And so one of the window panes, if you're thinking of a window, is quantum human design. Um, we look at child development because developmentally they're supposed to go through things. They're supposed to show us things.

And that's really just  normalizing, uh, like to our mothers, like it's, it's normal at this age to experience these things and see, um, power being played out. And then conditioning so that we can heal the lens through which we see, you know, that again, with the blinkers, maybe we can open it up and begin to just.

Be curious about what's possible and potential. Right? Um, and then also mistake motivations because  behavior  is a form of communication. And generally it's communicating an unmet need. Um, and then obviously we go through when we dive into that a little bit further. We go through the types. We go through the profiles.

We look into the centers. Um, as I did explain a little bit about the centers, we go into communication. So again, like, how can we learn to communicate with each other in a way that keeps us connected to our  own inner sense, our own inner compass, um, and teach our kids that so that as they're growing, they, even though there will be times where maybe they have to counteract that, right, but you can acknowledge and be like, yes, okay, your body is saying, yep, I can jump off this playground.

Mom is saying, okay. You may feel this is a yes, but right now I am not comfortable. I don't feel that it's safe. And for now it's a no, you know, like mums are allowed to put their boundaries in place. That is the point of it, right? Um, so it's not like, Oh, well, they're meant to go out and explore. So let them just go  jump into the river.

No.  Um, and then the mistaken motivations, like, and I feel as a mom for myself, like this is, The most simplest tool that you can use when you're looking at behavior like when we talk about behavior as a communication, you're like, okay, cool, but they're cranky and they're screaming at me. So what are they communicating because they can't articulate it and most of the time they don't probably know themselves, but  the key actually is in the first response that you feel in your body from that behavior.

So let's just say you have a meeting and then you get on the phone and your kids are like all of a sudden, mom, mom, mom, mom, mom, mom, mom, mom, mom, mom, mom. And you feel irritated. You feel annoyed and you're like, Oh, I just need to do this meeting. Why? Right. The mistake and motivation there is attention. And so they're communicating to us that.

We haven't filled their cup. And when you're operating from a deficit, a cup where those needs haven't been filled, it's probably going to get worse before it gets better. Like, cause as you begin to fill it, they're going to be like, I need more of this now. Right. And I'm even experiencing it myself as like my daughter's now too.

I finally feel a little bit of space. I'm doing more, um, podcasts myself and  it's great. It's almost like, Oh, I want more of this. I want more of the space all of a sudden. Because my cup has been quite. depleted in giving to my kids when they've been so young. Um, and so it's got to like fill up and then it's going to plateau out, but at least then, you know, okay, well they need attention.

So how can we give this to my child?  And it's through genuine encounter moments. And these moments are specific times where child led play or whatever it is. They get to, they get to drive that. And.  They get to inform or whatever it is. It's their time to tell us how they want to connect with us. And you can set a timer for that time and Sometimes you, you know, can we do this daily would be really ideal.

But if not, um, maybe it's on the weekend. You can take each child because it's got to be each child to, you know, can't just be everyone together, even though that is great. Right time of connection. But when it comes down to a really unmet need, it's individual. It's them. They're solely saying something isn't being met right now.

And, um, can we do that daily? 10 minutes a day. I mean, if you've got a few kids, maybe it's 5, 5 minutes a day, but you intentionally set that time with them and you continue to do. So if they're bigger kids, maybe it's like you take them out on a little dinner date  or a movie date. Like, let them pick, let them choose how they want to spend their time with you and then just.

Begin to see how that heals the relationship. And I say heals because, you know, every time we're not like, it's just like when we're spread thin and we're burning out, we're just like, we're pulling those threads apart. And then can we bring them back together? So  I've also included then a Kind of like a VIP experience where we're going to chat and telegram because I feel like mums are going to want to like, they're going to want to talk about it.

They want to bring their experiences, ask their questions. And so this round is going to, I'm going to include that because I feel like it would be really great to chat and get to know where mums are and what it is that they're actually searching for once they have this information. How then they can implement it because I don't want it to be just information.

I want you to be able to integrate this in your life and see the change that is going to like just shift in your family.  

Lydia: Yeah, so two quick questions before we wrap up, uh, is there a limit or a, uh, like an age frame? Age range that is the best for parents or is like, is it too late if they have a teenager and they want to find out or what? What do you, what does your program speak to?

Alana: Never. Never. Like, I mean, we're adults and we're doing the work now, aren't we? Like, if you think I'm 36 and I'm still doing the work, like, am I too old to have learned this stuff? No. And at the end of the day, like,  It's a relationship with your child. So,  yeah, why not give that a chance?

Lydia: Yeah. Um, so if you could envision a world where mothers have this information, I know this is a big question, but just, um, if you could quickly tell us, like, what, you know, what do you think the world would look like if mothers went through this and had this kind of information? 

Alana: Oh, man.  I think it's huge.

Like, I really believe it's huge and maybe not so much in the mothers, but no, I'm going to say it's going to be huge for the mothers, but the effect that we will see. in the world as more human beings that are becoming adults that are like not wounded in a child, like child, you know, they're going to imagine the things that you're going to do in the world.

Imagine the, the kids that walk in and aren't afraid to say no, aren't afraid to be themselves because they know their self worth. They know their self love because it's all within first, right? They know their self capability. They know what they can do because they have already done. Experimented and  live that as a young child or even a teen, right?

Like that's still young. There's so much time there where they get to play around with that. And then imagine the confidence that they have to move in the world, the decisions they will make and the places they will go. And of course that is going to affect.  the, the community and then beyond the community, the world.

Lydia: Ah,  yes, it starts with us mothers. 

Alana: Yeah. You know, we are the one that's bringing that ripple out.  

Lydia: Absolutely. So tell us where we can find you and what is next for mothers who want to work with you? 

Alana: Yeah, sure. So I'm mostly on Instagram. I mean, you can find me on Facebook as well at the nurtured women, but womb.

So w o m b a n underscore. And, um,  So on either of those platforms, and basically you can either book human design readings with me, um, I have SQL sessions where we tap into that yes, no thing if you're having a, like, a decision you need to make and you just don't know. And then, of course, Parenting by Design is starting in April, and I'm really excited.

It will be a frequent course, but this is going to be the one to jump into because it's going to be setting the foundations for All the futures. 

Lydia: Yeah. That is so exciting. Well, thank you so much for sharing that with us. And I'm so excited to see, uh, the mothers who jump in and change the world with that ripple effect.

So, um, thank you so much. Thanks everybody for tuning in.
