    017: Midlife Is Not a Crisis. It’s an Initiation.

    Midlife has been branded as a breakdown. A crisis. A slow fade into irrelevance. But what if it is actually an awakening? In this episode of Finding True North, Kelly-Anne and Jacqueline dive into the powerful midlife transition women experience and why it is far more than hormones and hot flashes. Inspired by conversations around Age Like a Girl and their own lived experience, they explore how midlife can feel chaotic, confronting, and deeply disorienting, yet also sacred. This is the season where what once worked no longer fits. Careers stop feeling aligned. The “good girl” identity begins to crack. The image of perfection becomes exhausting. Questions surface that are hard to say out loud. Through the lens of Human Design, they unpack how midlife is not random. It is an invitation back to yourself. A call to alignment. A moment when your tolerance for misalignment disappears and your inner compass gets louder. If you have been questioning your path, your purpose, or even who you are becoming, this conversation will feel like a deep exhale. In this episode, you will hear about:Why midlife is more than menopauseThe hidden emotional and identity shifts happening in this seasonWhy so many women feel restless, disillusioned, or unsettledThe courage it takes to leave roles that no longer fitThe conditioning many women grew up with and how it unravels in midlifeHow each Human Design type may experience this transition differentlyWhy your changing energy is not a flaw but feedbackThe impact your growth can have on the people around youWhy self trust becomes the true work of midlifeHow Human Design can act as a compass during this initiation ✨ They also share a free 10 minute Human Design and Mindset Starter Kit to help you make one small aligned shift and begin reconnecting with your inner compass. 10 Minute Human Design & Mindset Starter Kit: https://kellyanneappleton.myflodesk.com/starterkit If this episode resonated, subscribe, share it with a woman in your life navigating this season, and leave a review.

    016: How Do I Decide? (Authority Part 2)

    In this episode of Finding True North, Kelly-Anne and Jacqueline continue their exploration of inner authority in Human Design, diving into the four least common authorities and the powerful wisdom they carry. Building on last week’s conversation about decision making and self trust, this episode focuses on how clarity shows up differently for each person, especially when it comes to ego authority, self projected authority, environmental authority, and lunar cycle authority. These authorities often challenge the fast paced, logic driven expectations of modern life, yet they offer some of the deepest alignment when honored. Through real life examples and practical explanations, the sisters show how authority lives in the body, not the mind. They explore how understanding your own authority, and the authority of those around you, can radically improve relationships, communication, and confidence in decision making. This episode is an invitation to stop asking what the right answer is and start trusting how you are designed to decide. In this episode, you’ll learn: What ego authority really means and how desire and commitment guide decisionsWhy ego authority is rooted in heart and willpower, not ego as we commonly define itHow self projected authority finds clarity by speaking thoughts out loudWhy self projected people need a sounding board, not adviceHow environmental authority requires the right space for clarity to emergeWhy changing locations can unlock decision making for some peopleHow lunar cycle authority works for ReflectorsWhy Reflectors need time and consistency to reach clarityHow rushing decisions creates misalignment for rare authoritiesWhy slow, embodied decision making is not a flaw but a strength Key takeaway: There is no single correct way to make decisions. Your clarity comes from honoring how your body is designed to decide, not from meeting someone else’s timeline or expectations. ✨ Subscribe, share, and leave a review to continue the journey with Finding True North.

    015: How Do I Decide? (Authority Part 1)

    In today’s episode, Kelly-Anne and Jacqueline introduce the next foundational layer of Human Design: Inner Authority. If type explains how your energy works and strategy shows you how to engage with life, authority answers the question everyone asks sooner or later: How do I know what decision is right for me? This conversation unpacks why so many of us were taught to look outside ourselves for answers and how Human Design gently guides us back to our own internal wisdom. Rather than relying on logic, urgency, or other people’s opinions, authority teaches you how to make decisions in a way that feels grounded, sustainable, and aligned with your nervous system. The sisters explain what authority is, why it matters, and how learning to trust your own inner signals can radically shift the way you move through relationships, work, and everyday choices. This episode sets the stage for future conversations where each authority will be explored in more depth. In this episode, you’ll learn: What inner authority is and why it matters more than the mindHow authority works alongside type and strategyWhy overthinking often leads to misalignmentHow conditioning disconnects us from our inner knowingThe difference between mental decisions and embodied decisionsWhy learning your authority is a process, not a quick fixHow experimenting with authority builds self trust over timeWhy no one else can make aligned decisions for you You already have everything you need to make the right decisions for your life. Inner authority is not about doing it perfectly. It is about learning to trust yourself again. ✨ Subscribe, share, and leave a review to continue the journey with Finding True North.

    012: Finding Flow Through Strategy: Human Design for Generators and Manifesting Generators

    As we move into a new year, Kelly-Anne and Jacqueline begin the next foundational layer of human design: strategy. While type gives you insight into your energy, strategy shows you how to create aligned opportunities in your everyday life with less resistance and more flow. In this episode of Finding True North, the sisters focus on the two most common energy types, Generators and Manifesting Generators, and explain what it really means to “wait to respond.” Far from being passive, this strategy is about awareness, presence, and trusting the body’s natural yes or no response to what life brings into your orbit. Jacqueline breaks down how generators attract opportunities through magnetism when they are doing what lights them up, while Kelly-Anne shares real life experiences as a Manifesting Generator, including how the added strategy of informing creates smoother relationships and less friction when plans change or pivots happen quickly. This episode invites listeners to stop chasing and start noticing what is already showing up, then responding with clarity and trust. In this episode, you’ll learn: What strategy is and why it is the next key layer after typeWhy Generators and Manifesting Generators are designed to wait to respondWhat “waiting” actually looks like in real lifeHow sacral yes or no responses guide aligned decisionsWhy exposure to new environments creates more opportunities to respondHow Manifesting Generators use informing to reduce resistance and tensionHow this strategy applies to work, relationships, and daily lifeWhy flow increases when you stop forcing outcomes Key takeaway: You are not meant to chase what is not aligned. When you trust your response and stay open to what life presents, the right opportunities meet you with ease. ✨ Subscribe, share, and leave a review to continue the journey with Kelly-Anne and Jacqueline on Finding True North.

In this reflective episode of Finding True North, they explore what it means to intentionally close one chapter and step into the next with clarity, compassion, and alignment.

Drawing from human design, mindset work, and symbolism, they introduce a fresh and tangible approach to choosing a word of the year. One that is concrete, embodied, and supported by a meaningful symbol.
