    71. Self-Expression is the Invitation: A Projector Conversation With Travis Day

    In this episode, Erin is joined by Travis Day — a 1/3 Splenic Projector and the founder of the Projector Lounge — for an honest conversation about what it actually takes to live your design. They talk about what happens after Human Design clicks: when the relief sets in, but you realize that deconditioning isn’t an immediate glow-up… it’s a slow, embodied process that requires patience, presence, and a willingness to be seen before you feel ready. Erin and Travis share their stories of burnout, health challenges, emotional suppression, and years of trying to function like Generators… and why waiting for the invitation isn’t passive, but often begins with self-expression. The conversation focuses on what it means to actually embody this work as we move toward unprecedented change in 2027. In This Episode: Why self-expression often precedes recognition (and invitations)What waiting for the invitation feels like in the bodyProjector burnout, self-doubt, and the “pretend Generator” yearsSplenic authority as a felt knowing, not a mental decisionEmotional waves in relationship and why urgency creates distortionThe difference between calming the nervous system and expanding capacity About the Guest Travis Day is a 1/3 Splenic Projector, IHDS-certified Human Design guide, and the founder of Neutrino Seas. His work focuses on helping people move from mental understanding into lived, embodied experience — using self-expression as a pathway out of bitterness and into alignment. He is also the creator of the Projector Lounge, a community space for Projectors navigating deconditioning, self-trust, and real-world integration.

    70. From Discipline to Devotion: A Different Way to Start the Year

    In this episode of alignd., Erin is joined by Bry LeBlanc for a grounded conversation about why the start of the year so often feels off, and how to approach new beginnings without forcing change. Released just days before the Human Design New Year (January 22), this episode reframes “new year energy” through a more natural, cyclical lens — one rooted in contraction, reflection, and intention rather than discipline and pressure. In this episode, they explore: Why January 1 often creates false urgency — and what actually marks the start of a new cycleThe Human Design New Year and Gate 41 (contraction) as a time for imagining, not executingThe difference between discipline and devotion — and why devotion creates sustainable changeHow working with words (past, future, and the verb that connects them) can anchor real transformationWhy nurturing yourself through discomfort is not optional, it’s essential This conversation is practical, reflective, and honest — offering a different way to orient yourself to the year ahead without bypassing the integration your body and nervous system still need. And if you've found your word for 2026, comment and let us know what it is!

    69. Frequency Medicine & Using Flower Essences to Accelerate Your Deconditioning

    A conversation that opens the door to a totally different way of working with your human design — one that moves beneath mindset, beneath willpower, and straight into the frequency that drives your patterns. Erin sits down with Tracy Poizner, a homeopathic practitioner of 20+ years, to explore how Bach flower essences can support real shifts in the places where different energy types stay stuck the longest. Warm, grounded, unexpectedly eye-opening. We get into: how flower essences work as frequency medicine (and why your body responds before your mind does)the difference between “knowing your design” and actually being able to live itwhy certain not-self patterns feel impossible to move through logic alonehow Tracy created HD-specific blends that target the stickiest parts of each energy typethe kinds of transformations people are seeing after a few weeks of using themwhat it means to decondition at the energetic level instead of fighting yourself at the surfaceIf you’ve ever felt like you understand your design but can’t get your system to follow, this episode offers a warm, grounded entry point into a tool that actually helps things move.

    68. Shedding Season, Screen Addiction, and Letting Yourself Be Loved

    A cozy holiday catch-up that somehow turns into a whole conversation about attention, shedding, relationships, and the very real chaos of being a human with a phone and a nervous system. Erin and Bee talk Christmas nostalgia, proposals, screen addiction, and what actually happens when you stop distracting yourself long enough to feel your life again. We get into: Erin’s mom in full 4/6 sacral-generator Christmas gloryThe Year of the Snake and why everyone feels like they’re shedding a whole identityHow our phones hijack creativity, energy, and confidence without us noticingThe difference one week of not consuming makesBee’s engagement story (the ring, the moment, the blackout)The emotional crash that followed, and what commitment brings up in the bodyPossibility vs probability view in partnership and building a life as a teamSoftening, control, trust, and letting yourself be lovedThose weird timeline-collapse moments where your future finally catches up to you If you’re in your own shedding season right now, you’re not alone.

    67. The 12 Nights That Shape Your Year: A Practical Guide to Hopeful Spells

    A stripped-down, honest conversation about the 12-night end-of-year ritual known as the Rauhnächte - and why it actually works without the the forced “new year, new me” energy. This week, we’re joined by Lea Besemer to unpack Hopeful Spells, the version of the ritual she’s turned into something real and usable - something that actually helps you understand what the year ahead is asking of you through the lens of your Human Design and your annual perfection year. We get into: why this strange “time outside of time” makes for a powerful energetic portalhow the 13-wish ritual actually workswhy most intention-setting feels pointless (and how your HD motivation type shifts the entire experience)how astrology + HD give you context that makes your year make sensewhat “perfection years” are and why each year comes with a specific governing theme It’s a practical way to get honest about the year ahead, without forcing anything.
