[Your Human Design Mission Statement - Workshop 2.0]

How do you explain what you're here to Be in this world?

Really, the question usually comes more like, "and so ... what is it you do?"

Worst. Question. Ever... for some of our undefined centers. The G Center in particular.

Perhaps it's my Open G (and open head lol) that lead me to originally explore my chart in this way - through understanding what the "end goal" of living as myself might be, how my Incarnation Cross could possibly present or at least to be able to recognize it when it began to unfold. Has been helpful.

Regardless of how my interest came to pass [the actual backstory I share on the worksop details page - it was a wander (open G), then a bump (3rd line profile), then an invitation ("If you make it I will buy it" )] ...

Such was the birth of Your Human Design Mission Statement 1.0 ... that was back in 2020.

It was an exploration that really stepped up my understanding of what's in my Design (and what isn't of course) and allowed me - and the others who joined me for the first workshop - to lean even further into living as me, and to let go of the stuff that really isn't my lane.

The 9 Notself Saturdays project happened a couple years later.

That infusion of the knowledge in the interactive and conversational way we went about it, has since served many many people and continues to be an important source of clarity for beginner and advanced beginner experimenters.

I've decided to include those recordings in this 2.0 round of Your HD Mission Statement (maybe you already have access to Notself Saturday files through another program - and know how great they are - would love to hear in the comments!)

I also came to the clarity to include a product from one of my original (pre-HD) 'live life as yourself' flavored mentors called "Secret Beliefs" - I can see in hindsight how pivotal he and his way of being were in my being able to recognize how important Human Design would be when I first bumped into it in July 2015.

Secret Beliefs as he presented them are basically all those things we're socially programmed to believe about ourselves - that mostly aren't true.

Human Design is that ... but on steroids.

His work, much like my own was always a "can't unring the bell, can't unsee" flavor. He passed in 2018 and I am so glad to have been able to strike a deal with him a few years earlier to be able to include it with my own offerings.

Anyway, it's been on my Mind, now that I'm 4 years further into my experiment, to revisit the HD Mission Statement exploration process -

I know, with my Right Mind (and Markets Internal environment) that it's always more interesting with people who can hear me along for the adventure.

And finally, there's energy for it (darn emotional Authority - been sitting with it for 6 months at least, maybe more lol) - ie. so far, I apparently only do this every 4 years.

So here's what we focused on in 1.0 and what we'll also be dipping our toes into for 2.0 - all with an eye towards being able to answer "And what is it you do?" - in a way that is true to our Design and speaks directly and clearly to the people who are meant to hear it:

1.0 included:

- Motivation
- Sense
- Trajectory
- And Personality Sun

And 2.0 expands to consider things like:

- Non-sacral definition
- Whether you have motors defined - or not
- Personal Authority
- Profile (huge clues here re. methods of marketing)
- Circuitry
- Undefined/Open Centers
- Voices of the Throat
- Right or Left Mind
- Environment (Observed/Observer)

And whatever else we discover along the way.

If this sounds like something you might be interested in playing with together, let me know and I can get details over to you today.

Fun hand-raising gifs always appreciated

Spotted this image on my newsfeed a few years back.

I was eventually invited to turn the expanded version into a product which got named "Your HD Mission Statement"

It's for people who want to begin to consider their Human Design in their simplified marketing messaging. It can also help with considering new directions.

Been thinking about doing a 2.0 version of that, because there's more that I factor in and look at these days, but this original post is a fine place to begin.

If you'd like to hear more, about the 2.0 workshop possibility and get in on early bird pricing, comment -

**Earlybird**

And I can get more info & or a registration link over to you.

Meanwhile, here's the post that started the whole ball rolling in the first place:

______________________________

What is an elevator speech?

An “elevator speech” is a short statement that is meant to let people who ask “what is it you do?” have a clue about how you might serve them.

With my open G (especially) this has always been my nemesis.

And yet, never an exercise that’s not worth practicing.

Wanna take a stab?

Try to be as pedantic and plain spoken as you can.

Maybe pretend the person you tell this to needs to be able to repeat it to someone else. It can be THAT clear.

I think I’m going to play around with my Motivation, Sense, Trajectory & P Sun Gate.

For me that’s-

Motivation- Fear

Sense - Meditation

Trajectory - Separatist

and

P Sun - 27.1 (nurturing via selfishness/self-care)

Recently (thanks to an unexpected DM) I had a possible lightbulb around “supporting coaches in client crisis”

You know ... folks who are way over-giving (without appropriate compensation), want help deciding on boundaries to experiment with ...

By asking questions that no one ever asks so there’s opportunity to regroup and reframe, looking at fears and the stories that go with them, a lot of clarity can be gained in a fairly short timeframe.

Lol I just had a giggle at this thought that popped in my head

“I help people with defined or undefined solar plexus find/face their biggest fears so they can take the best care possible of themselves and the people around them”

Sorta true I think? 🤔

And the part that made me laugh was the curiosity part that’s built in “how do I know whether I’m defined or undefined?” .... effortless them asking me thingy - for response, or not.

Another thought -

If you’ve had people answer the 4 question for you, revisit the one that speaks to their transformation.

(if you haven’t asked the 4 questions lately or at all - they can be really clarifying)

Ask 3-5 clients or customers these four questions and you can often get instant insights into the actual words you might want to experiment with in your marketing and offer creating.

Let me know if you'd like to try that too :)

I'm thinking about spending the first 6 weeks of 2024 with HD beginners - interested?

Fun interview :) ... and starting at Min 5:55ish, listen to what Will’s saying about how he saw “content” change with the rise of social media.

And why he says he feels is what people will buy his thing (ie. go to the movie) now.

What do you hear?

Pretty interesting eh?
