Becoming a parent made me fall in love with Human Design all over again.
As a new mom, I discovered that parenting was every part as rewarding, challenging and humbling as they said it would be. Without the ability to communicate with our son in those early months, I often felt helpless. It was impossible to interpret every cry or whine, even though I wanted so badly to answer them. Meanwhile, every article I read or podcast I listened to seemed to offer contradicting advice.
Then I looked at his Human Design. It showed me how he was designed to learn, play, communicate, connect, and eat in the most natural and supportive way for him. These insights made me a more confident parent, because I knew exactly how to show up for him.
As caregivers, we often feel pressure to do more than we need to. But our job is not to “shape” these little beings into anything or anyone. Our job is to teach our kids to trust themselves so they can show us what they need to thrive.
Alexandra has taken the complex concept of human design and created a roadmap so easily digestible, supportive, and gentle. What a gift to have as a parent - another lens through which to view your child as an individual in addition to tactical steps to help guide them into being exactly who they already know they are.
