In the last part of this 2 part interview, we talked about Human Design for Creatives! Particularly for those navigating burnout, fatigue, and overwhelm in their creative journeys. The last part was introduction to Human Design basics, so if you haven’t listened yet be sure catch up to that one first. In this part 2 episode, we dive a little deeper into how to operate as SACRALS and NON-SACRALS.We talk about the ways in which we experience energy depletion and recovery according to our own unique designs. We also talk about how our own unique energies can interact and be affected by others - and how vital that awareness is in a team / collaborative setting.If you’ve been loving these Human Design talks and want to learn more, be sure to head to our shownotes on how to connect more with Ilona and her amazing work!

Why is creating so exhausting?

How do I create more without burning out so much?

Why is it so hard to stay consistent?

If you’re someone who creates content, runs a business, a creative/artist navigating burnout, fatigue, overwhelm oh my

Warning: these next two episodes might actually be life changing for you

We sit down with Human Design Made Easy author Ilona Pamplona in a conversation sooo juicy we had to split it up in two parts!

In this part one, Ilona walks us through the basics of human design - from aura types, strategy, and what actually leads us to burnout in different ways.

Hint: it’s not one size fits all

If you're in Vegas, we just launched an in-person series called

slo create: a monthly workshop for burned out creatives to practice slow creation

We had our first one last month and talk about the importance of creating with your HANDS (esp if you're always creating through screens)

along with how comforting it is to go through creative challenges with a community of others going through similar things

How are YEWWW doing? Where are you at creatively at this point in the year with the days winding down and going into the holiday season?
