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.

This is just the beginning of a magical season featuring stories from digital nomads around the world. And I will be including an exciting podcast series around how Human Design can help you with better relationships, including the relationship with yourself. Thank you for being a part of this podcast community!

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.

Are you holding yourself back because you're afraid of being rejected?

You're not alone. The fear of rejection, whether from others or even from yourself, can quietly sabotage your dreams, your visibility, and your authentic self-expression. It creeps in when you're about to launch something new, speak your truth, or step outside your comfort zone.

In this episode of the Travel and Work with Human Design podcast, I share a deeply personal story about dancing with rejection and discovering a powerful truth: rejection is actually redirection.

Through the lens of Human Design and my own journey, you'll learn how to move through fear, release self-rejection, and open yourself up to alignment, expansion, and self-love.

If you're ready to stop shrinking and start shining, this conversation will meet you right where you are, and guide you to where you're meant to go.

Have you been navigating your own fears around rejection? Or did something in this episode resonate deeply with you?

You followed your sacral “yes”... so why does it feel like everything just stopped?

Welcome to episode 081 of the Travel and Work with Human Design podcast. If you're a Generator (or love one), this episode is for you, because today we're talking about the raw, frustrating, soul-testing reality of the Generator Plateau.

Here’s the problem: You responded. You took aligned action. You did everything right. And now… nothing. No feedback. No progress. No results. Just a heavy, uncomfortable silence that makes you question if you’re even on the right path.

Let’s be real: The plateau hurts. It’s where doubt creeps in, your mind starts spinning stories, and the urge to quit too early becomes unbearable. This is the point where most Generators give up — just before the breakthrough.

But here’s the truth:

Waiting isn’t punishment. It’s the process. And learning to trust it is the key to deeper alignment, sustainable success, and living in full expression of your Human Design.

In this episode, Travel and Work with Human Design podcast host Astrid breaks down:

• Why the Generator plateau happens (and why it’s not your fault)
• How to tell the difference between frustration that’s healthy vs. misaligned
• What’s really happening in the quiet moments behind the scenes
• Why patience is your superpower, and how to trust your next “yes”

If you’re tired, doubting, and thinking of quitting…don’t.

Tune in now and learn to honor the plateau… because your energy knows exactly where it’s taking you.
