If you’ve been feeling exhausted, unmotivated, or even a little disappointed in yourself for not sticking to your resolutions, this episode is for you.

What if the problem isn’t your lack of willpower or discipline… but the timing itself?

In this episode of the Travel and Work with Human Design podcast, Astrid invites you to look at time through a new lens, one that honors your body, your energy, and the deeper rhythms of nature. Instead of pushing forward with the pressure of “New Year, New Me,” she explores the Human Design Rave New Year, where the real energetic beginning of the year doesn’t happen on January 1st, but when the Sun moves into Gate 41.

You’ll learn why so many people crash around Blue Monday, how ambition and burnout are baked into the Gregorian calendar, and how aligning with the Rave Mandala can bring more ease, self-compassion, and purpose into your life. This is an invitation to stop forcing and start syncing, with your own inner wisdom, with the seasons, and with what truly matters.

Season 4 is here! After a season of traveling the world, rest, and deep integration, I’m back behind the mic to share what’s been unfolding behind the scenes. In this kickoff episode, I talk about the power of wintering, nervous system regulation, and why spaciousness is essential for deconditioning and embodying your Human Design, especially as we move closer to the 2027 global shift.

If you're craving more balance, support, or direction in your own Human Design experiment, I’d love to support you.

Let's dive in.

Greetings, Astrid

Are you constantly on the go, caught in a cycle of doing instead of being? In this short but powerful episode, we explore the difference between a human doing and a human being. As you travel, plan, and navigate life, have you made space to just pause and connect with nature?

Travel and Work with Human Design Host Astrid shares her insights on mindfulness, nervous system balance, and how Gene Keys and Human Design can help you realign with your true self, especially during the seasonal transitions.

We also dive into reflections using tools like the Year Compass and why the Human Design New Year is a better time for setting goals than January 1st.

Tune in to discover how slowing down and syncing with your natural rhythm can help you build more meaningful habits and return to your most authentic self.
