About this listen

Human Design can be mind-blowing…but also kind of confusing. That’s where we come in. Welcome to the Human Design Hive Podcast, where we (Dana, your Human Design guide, and Hali, my daughter and co-host) help you untangle who you really are from who the world told you to be—so you can stop second-guessing yourself and start trusting your own path. Whether you’re new to Human Design or already deep in the rabbit hole, we’re here to explore how understanding yourself on an energetic level can shift everything—your relationships, career, confidence, and the way you move through the world. Because when you stop living by who you think you should be and start trusting who you actually are, everything changes. Expect deep insights, relatable conversations, and plenty of laughs as we break it all down in a way that actually makes sense for real life. Subscribe, share, and join the Hive! 🐝✨

  • 171-November 2025 Human Design Sun and Earth Transits: Highlighting Individuality
    Oct 30 2025

    ✨✨ If you’ve been wondering what your Incarnation Cross really means, and how it ties into the themes showing up in your life right now, I’d love for you to join me for Incarnation Cross Unlocked on Sunday, November 9th.

    It’s a live workshop where we’ll look at how your cross reveals the energetic story you’re here to live and what it’s trying to express through you.

    Early bird registration closes November 2nd at midnight, so if this feels like a yes, now’s the time to grab your spot:https://tinyurl.com/54zm7ms5

    ___________________________________________________________________________

    November brings a real shift in tone. We’re leaving the tribe-centered Quarter of Duality and stepping into the Quarter of Mutation — the part of the cycle that’s all about individuality, creativity, and inner transformation.

    In this episode, Hali and I look at what that means through the Sun and Earth transits for the month. It’s a time when things start to feel a little different — like change is brewing under the surface, and something new is waiting to take shape.

    We also touch on how individuality doesn’t mean doing it all alone. It’s more about learning to trust what’s uniquely yours, even if no one else sees it yet.

    If you’ve been feeling restless or like you’re on the edge of something new (but can’t name it yet), this episode will make a lot of sense.

  • 170- October 2025 Human Design Sun and Earth Transits: A Journey Through the Spleen Center.
    Oct 1 2025

    October is full of movement — six Sun and Earth transits in one month. Most of them are moving through the Spleen, which means our intuition, instincts, and those sneaky little fears are getting stirred up.

    In this week’s episode of Human Design Hive Podcast, Hali and I walk through each shift and talk about:

    - Why the Sun and Earth matter so much in your chart (and in the collective)

    - The Spleen gates showing up this month and the themes they highlight

    - How to tell the difference between fear that keeps you stuck and intuition that quietly guides you

    - What these energies can look like in everyday life, from relationships to decision-making

    It’s a longer one (there was a lot to unpack), but in October you may feeling extra sensitive, second-guessing yourself, or pulled to trust your instincts more, and this episode will make sense of it.

    With you in it,

    Dana
