Have you ever felt completely uninspired by something you were once so excited about? In this spontaneous episode, I'm sharing an important message about the natural seasons we all experience—and why feeling "blah" might actually be pointing you toward your next level.
I'm also inviting you to join the Frequency SHIFT Collective, a new membership where we tune into the natural rhythm of the cosmos through True Sidereal Human Design transits, the 64 Genius Archetypes, and the Full & New Moon cycles every month.
The Message: You Have Seasons
It's completely normal to feel excited one moment and uninspired the next. That doesn't mean you're doing the wrong thing.
What if the "blah" feeling is showing you:
It's time to recalibrate and pause
Something is in the way of your zone of genius
You're giving energy to your "zone of excellence" (things you're good at) instead of your zone of genius (things that feel effortless)
My Story: Four Months of Feeling "Blah"
This past summer, I felt uninspired for about four months. I even had thoughts about closing my business. But when I got honest, I realized I was overcommitted to things that felt safe and created belonging - but weren't my zone of genius.
Once I let go of those things (many rooted in people-pleasing), everything shifted. I found new inspiration, aligned systems to support my mission and the spark came back. The next level of excitement always comes when we embrace the plateau instead of running from it.
The Wisdom of Plateaus
Just like nature and the stock market—we have ups and downs. Nothing grows in a straight line.
When we make rush decisions during the "down" moments, we miss the opportunity for the next uplevel. The more we can embrace the uncomfortable feelings and find safety within ourselves, the more we open to growth and expansion.
Instead of panicking when you feel stuck, get curious... The plateau has a message for you. There's gold hidden in that phase. Don't resist it, lean in...
Join the Frequency SHIFT Collective
This new membership is about shifting your frequency into pure authenticity by tuning into the rhythm of nature as we see it in the sky
What we follow:
Sun & Earth transits every 5-6 days (the "Genius Coins", my synthesis of Human Design gates and Gene Keys)
New Moon & Full Moon in their actual constellations (True Sidereal)
What you get:
Complete 64 Genius Archetypes booklet (immediate access)
Audio recordings for each transit (released every 5-6 days)
2 live calls per month for deeper exploration and support
A slow, natural rhythm—no overwhelm, no catching up
Over one year, we explore each Genius Coin twice (from both perspectives)

My True Sidereal Journey
I discovered Human Design almost 6 years ago with Tropical calculations—it was life-changing and gave me permission to be multi-passionate and trust myself. But 2 years ago, a student introduced me to Sidereal astrology, and everything shifted.When I pulled my True Sidereal chart, I felt seen at a deeper soul level. My air signs shifted to earth (which I always felt was missing), and everything else that felt slight off finally clicked. It was the confirmation I didn't know I needed.
What I noticed: Tropical was an amazing stepping stone, but True Sidereal felt like coming homeI'd been using my Tropical chart as an excuse not to do certain thingsTrue Sidereal brought deeper empowerment and self-trustMy clients also experienced profound resonance with their True Sidereal charts
The Difference: True Sidereal uses what's actually visible in the sky right now. When you see "Full Moon in Aquarius" in the media, look up into the sky - it's likely in Capricorn (about one sign off). Tropical is based on where stars were 2,000 years ago and does not take into account the precession of the equinoxes which creates about a 1 degree shift every 72 years.
What changes: Your Human Design type, profile, centers, astrology placements, and Gene Keys may all shift. It is for those who are curious and haven't quite experienced the alignment they were hoping for from working with their Tropical chart.
Important Message: True Sidereal isn't about making Tropical "wrong"—it's about honoring what resonates with YOUR body. Some will stay with Tropical, some will use both, some will fully embrace True Sidereal. All paths are valid. True Sidereal if offering a new perspective that many have been looking for.
You're unique. You're here to shine your light, not dim it. Trust yourself and follow your body's guidance, not what your mind thinks you "should" do.

For years, I thought something was fundamentally wrong with me. I had too many passions, too many interests. I'd start one thing, then pivot to another. I couldn't just "pick a niche" and stick with it.
Then Human Design found me—and I discovered the Manifesting Generator Archetype and also the 35-5 energy (Genius Coin).
In this episode, I share:
Why change is actually your superpower (not a flaw)
The difference between healthy change (flow) and restless change (chase)
How to recognize when you're changing things to avoid feeling something
The divine balance between Adventure (35) and Patience (5)
Why your nervous system sabotages healthy change (and what to do about it)
How the 35th Gene Key gives you the power to change your entire life experience through the choices you make in each moment
This episode is for you if:
You've ever felt "too much" or "not focused enough"
You keep changing things in your business (names, programs, colors) and wonder if it's "wrong"
You're multi-passionate and tired of being told to "just pick one thing"
You're craving change but scared to take the leap
You want to understand the difference between ego-driven change and soul-aligned change

In this episode, Allison Bingham shares how one Human Design reading she had with me two years ago illuminated her voice as her channel for transformation—a reflection that forever changed how she designs her business and shows up in the world.
We dive deep into:
- How one intuitive Human Design reading can create years of ripple effects
- The power of seeing your "easy" gifts as your actual genius (not something everyone can do)
- Why doing what comes naturally is MORE valuable than the hard work we've been conditioned to pursue
- The shift from operator to oracle—building businesses that feel like flow instead of force
- How recognizing your unique energetic signature allows you to create offers that regenerate rather than drain you
- Why shadow work is the breeding ground for innovation and breakthrough
- The integration of divine feminine flow with divine masculine structure in business
- Being a transmutational presence vs. needing to have everything "figured out"
Key Takeaways:
✨ Your supernatural gifts often feel so natural to you that you think everyone can do them—but they can't. That's your genius.
✨ One potent moment of being truly seen can collapse timelines and shift your entire trajectory.
✨ When you're in your zone of genius (vs. your zone of excellence), work becomes regenerative—you'd do it even if you weren't paid.
✨ Building a legacy that builds itself means becoming the frequency that moves everything forward, not the person doing all the doing.
✨ Take action before you think you're ready—clarity comes through the doing, not before it.

Today I'm sharing something that's been coming up repeatedly in my work - a crucial insight about how we often misunderstand alignment in human design, and how this misunderstanding can actually keep us stuck.
The Core Paradox:
We think we need to avoid our "not-self" themes (frustration, anger, bitterness, disappointment) and focus only on our "signature" themes (satisfaction, peace, success, surprise). But this approach completely misses where the real transformation happens.
The Four/Five "Not-Self" Themes:
Generator/Manifesting Generator: Frustration
Manifester: Anger
Projector: Bitterness
Reflector: Disappointment
Here's what most people miss: Your not-self theme is where all the magic is. It's not something to avoid or bypass - it's your access point to deeper alignment.
Why This Matters:
When you resist your not-self themes, you actually create more of what you're trying to avoid. This is the classic "what you resist persists" principle. If you're trying to force yourself into feeling satisfied while pushing away frustration, you're working against yourself.
The real transformation happens when you can lovingly accept and work WITH the parts of you experiencing these not-self themes. This is the actual deconditioning work.
All Themes Apply to All of Us:
Even though you have a specific type in your chart, you'll likely experience all of these themes at different times. I'm a generator, but I resonate with all the signature and not-self themes across all types. We're a blend of all the archetypes - it's never black and white.
The Real Work:
Get curious about your not-self themes instead of judging them
Express these energies healthily (journaling, EFT tapping, movement, screaming into a pillow)
Recognize that frustration, anger, bitterness, and disappointment all stem from the same root fears - not belonging, rejection, not being loved
Celebrate when these themes come up because they're showing you where transformation wants to happen
A Personal Example:
I recently went through intense frustration in my business - wanting to simplify, feeling like I didn't want to continue doing things the same way. Instead of pushing it away, I stayed with it. Now I've found my satisfaction again, with real clarity about what needs to change.
The Invitation:
Human design isn't here to label or limit you. It's an awareness tool showing you where you're not aligned SO YOU CAN work with those parts and become more aligned. The signature themes (satisfaction, peace, etc.) come naturally when you stop resisting the not-self themes.
Information alone doesn't create transformation - it's the repeated practice of working with these aspects of yourself that leads to embodiment and real change.
Intuitive Human Design Certification: https://courses.analenafuchs.com/intuitive-human-design-teacher-certification-oct2025
The Intuitive Human Design Teacher Training & Certification starts October 22, 2025 (and the last day to enroll is November 5, 11am EST). This is where we do the actual work of applying these principles, going beyond information into real transformation - for yourself and you will feel confident doing insanely transformational chart reading and working with clients.
This episode is essential listening for anyone working with human design who feels stuck trying to "be more aligned" or who's been beating themselves up for experiencing their not-self themes.

In this special episode, I share my journey of creating the Intuitive Human Design Teacher Training & Certification and sit down with Dr. Marie Weitbrecht, one of my current certification students, to discuss her experience and transformation.My Journey as a Teacher:I've always been a natural teacher - even in school, I helped other kids with math and loved it. But I didn't know what I was here to teach until human design came into my life about five years ago. When I discovered it, something clicked - it felt like remembering rather than learning something new.What I quickly realized was that the way I understood and shared human design was vastly different from traditional teachings. Human design gave me permission to do things my own way, which was exactly what I'd been frustrated about in the entrepreneurial space - constantly trying to replicate other people's formulas and feeling like a failure when they didn't work.Why This Certification Exists:I noticed that human design was often being taught in ways that actually defeated its purpose - people were outsourcing their authority to the system rather than learning to trust themselves. I wanted to teach it in an expansive, empowering way that helps people tune into their own inner authority.The certification evolved further when I discovered true sidereal astrology (thanks to Marie bringing it to my attention!). Now the program offers both perspectives - tropical and true sidereal - so students can explore what resonates most authentically with them.Conversation with Dr. Marie Weitbrecht:Marie shares her experience taking the certification, including:Why she joined after already completing my previous certificationWhat makes this program unique - the active community and high-level discussionsHer transformation from constant stress to learning to decondition from societal pressureHow her reading style has evolved from "cookie cutter" explanations to intuitive, targeted sessionsWhy she feels confident using human design with her clientsKey Insights from Marie:"I've never seen such an active community in any course... it seems like everyone is on a pulse that is important, and that's very special.""I used to operate from stress maybe 80% of the time. Now I'm really deconditioning around pressure from outside, from society, from what I think other people want from me.""People actually just want help in what's bothering them - they don't need to understand every nitty-gritty detail of their chart."The Invitation:The next cohort of the Intuitive Human Design Teacher Training & Certification begins at the end of October 2025. This is a nine-month transformative journey (like birthing a baby!) where you'll go through your own deconditioning while learning to share human design in your unique, intuitive way.This isn't about memorizing information or giving cookie-cutter readings - it's about deepening your relationship with yourself so you can authentically guide others.If you feel a light, expansive sensation in your body right now, that's your invitation to explore this journey.

In this vulnerable solo episode, I share a real-time example of how the sacral center works in decision-making - using my own journey with the daily Big Leap Year videos I've been creating since my birthday.
The Big Announcement:
I'm officially letting go of the daily Big Leap Year videos on YouTube. Even though I'm around day 170 and committed to it at the beginning of the year, my sacral has been giving me a clear "no" - and I'm finally listening.
Understanding the Sacral Stair Step:
The sacral has a natural rhythm: go up (energized, flowing) → hit plateau (feels dull, "blah") → go back up to next level
The key is recognizing the difference between a temporary plateau (normal - don't quit here!) and genuine misalignment (consistent "no" that doesn't shift)
What starts as a sacral "yes" can change over time - staying connected to your body's current wisdom matters more than past commitments
What I Learned:
I was trying to prove myself and people-please rather than honor my body's wisdom
The daily commitment was draining me and distracting from what truly lights me up (podcasting, true sidereal human design)
When you're consistently pushing and forcing, that's misalignment - not just a plateau
Sometimes we need to experience what's NOT aligned to learn what IS aligned
Key Takeaways:
Not everything aligned will feel amazing 100% of the time - plateaus are normal
Your wellbeing and body's signals should always be the priority
When you let go of what's not yours, you create space for others to step into their zone of genius
The more you slow down and connect to your body (nature, meditation, etc.), the clearer your inner compass becomes
The Invitation:
If you feel called to do the Big Leap Year journey, get the book and do it at your own pace. It's been transformative for me - I'm just continuing it privately now rather than publicly.
This episode is perfect for generators, manifesting generators, or anyone learning to trust their body's wisdom over their mind's commitments.

In this thought-provoking solo episode, I share my journey of discovering the difference between tropical and true sidereal astrology, and why this matters for Human Design, Gene Keys, and our understanding of celestial influences.
The Core Question:
If tropical astrology is based on where celestial bodies were 2,000+ years ago rather than where they actually are in the sky today, is this system sustainable long-term?
What I Explore:
The precession of the equinoxes - roughly every 72 years, the position of celestial bodies shifts about 1 degree, creating almost a 30-degree difference over 2,000 years
Why when you read "full moon in Aquarius," it's most likely actually in Capricorn when you look at the real sky
My personal shift from tropical to true sidereal astrology and how it affected my human design work
The emotional responses people have when discovering their "sun sign" might be different than they've always believed
The Bigger Picture:
I draw parallels between this astronomical reality and other areas where we've blindly followed systems that drift away from nature (like the margarine vs. butter example in nutrition). Sometimes what seems "easier" or more standardized isn't necessarily more aligned with natural reality.
True sidereal astrology uses actual constellation sizes - some are huge (Virgo, Pisces) while others are small (Aries, Scorpio) - reflecting the irregularities of nature rather than the artificial 30-degree divisions of tropical astrology.
My Perspective:
This isn't about right vs. wrong - it's about personal resonance and what feels authentic to you. I respect that different systems work for different people, and I'm simply sharing what I've discovered resonates deeply with me after years of exploration.
I wonder if our society's rush and disconnection from natural timing partly stems from following astrological systems that are always "ahead" of what's actually happening in the sky.
The Invitation:
Check the sky yourself using free apps. Look up where planets actually are versus where tropical astrology says they are. Make your own informed choice about what resonates with your experience.
If this triggers resistance in you, that's completely normal - it may simply not be the right time for you to explore this. Trust your own timing and inner knowing.

Today I am sharing one of the biggest realizations from my experience as an entrepreneur: the incredible importance of trusting yourself and staying true to your unique path, even when the world is full of distractions and "proven formulas."
The One Magic Shift:Learning to distinguish between content and activities that help you listen to yourself MORE versus those that make you question and doubt your inner voice.
Key Insights:
🎯 Why slowing down isn't about being lazy - it's about getting clear on YOUR aligned path first
🌊 How to recognize when you're in effortless flow versus forcing things that aren't meant for you
📱 The shadow of Gate 56 - Distraction - and how constant content consumption can disconnect you from your inner voice
💎 Why the things that come most effortlessly to you often create the most incredible value for others
🎨 Your unique gifts weren't given to you to waste - they're meant to be shared with the world
The Challenge:
We live in a world of endless information, AI-generated content, courses, and "success formulas." While tools and technology are amazing for getting our message out, nobody outside of you can tell you what your core truth is.
The Practice: Take time to contemplate: What content and activities are actually wasting your time and distracting you? What brings you value and helps you listen to yourself more deeply?
This episode is a gentle reminder that it's safe to trust yourself, take time to listen inward, and follow your unique path - even if it feels slower or less certain than following someone else's blueprint.You can thank me later ;-)

✨🎙️🚀 7 Benefits of Podcasting Series - Benefit #7: It's Introvert Friendly
Welcome to the final episode of our 7-day series! Today we're exploring why podcasting is the perfect marketing tool for introverts, highly sensitive people, and empaths who feel drained by traditional business promotion.
In this episode, I share:
Why traditional marketing feels overwhelming for introverts (networking events, constant social media presence, dancing on camera)
How podcasting lets you connect with your audience from the comfort of your own sanctuary
Why you can take time to prepare and think before speaking (no pressure to be witty on the spot)
The choice between audio-only or adding video - you control your comfort level
My personal journey: trying YouTube first, feeling overwhelmed, then finding my rhythm with audio podcasting
How I evolved naturally from audio-only to video after nearly 2 years when I felt ready
Why you get to decide how to show up online in a way that feels safe
The importance of sustainability - we won't keep doing what always feels unsafe
How introverts can be selective about podcast guests and conversations
Why podcasting honors your natural introvert superpowers: depth, thoughtfulness, authentic connection
Key Insight: For something to be sustainable, you need to enjoy it and feel safe doing it. Yes, we want to stretch our comfort zones, but forced extroversion isn't sustainable for introverts.
The Evolution Path: Start where you feel comfortable (audio-only is perfect!), then naturally evolve as your confidence grows. There's no rush to do everything at once.
Introvert Superpowers in Podcasting:
Deep, meaningful conversations over small talk
Thoughtful preparation and intention
Authentic vulnerability and connection
Calm, grounded energy that people crave
Quality over quantity approach
Series Reflection - We've covered 7 incredible benefits:
Accountability & Consistency
Independence from Social Media
Amazing Human Connections
Playground for Creativity
Confidence Building
Standing Out in Age of AI
Introvert Friendly
Key Takeaway: Podcasting lets you market your business and connect with your ideal audience in a way that honors your introvert nature - from your sanctuary, on your terms, in your authentic energy.
Community Connection: The biggest transformations happen when we connect with like-minded people who share similar goals and support each other's growth.
Ready to launch in an introvert-friendly way? Easy Podcast Launch 2.0 starts August 19th! This program combines practical tech training with energetic work and Human Design integration. Get all the details here: https://courses.analenafuchs.com/easy-podcast-launch?coupon=VOICE
Reflection Question: Which of the 7 benefits surprised you most or opened up a new perspective for you?
✨🎙️🚀 7 Benefits of Podcasting Series - Benefit #6: Stand Out in an Age of AI
Welcome to day 6! Today we're exploring why AI isn't your competition - it's actually making your authentic voice more valuable than ever before.
In this episode, I share:
Why I have a unique (and empowering) view on AI that most people don't consider
How AI is actually forcing us out of soul-crushing jobs and into our zone of genius
Why awakening humans are craving real connection more than ever
The one thing AI can never replicate: your connection to higher consciousness
How I can "smell" AI-generated content as an empath (and so can your ideal clients)
Why machines have no soul, feeling, or emotion - and why that's your advantage
How to use AI to support (not replace) your authentic expression
Why working 40 hours a week isn't what humans are designed for
The Human Design truth: all channels move toward the Throat Center (manifestation)
How your authentic voice becomes your greatest competitive advantage
Why now is the perfect time to start podcasting (while others get lazy with AI)
The beautiful opportunity to reach thousands, millions, even billions with your unique message
Key AI Insight: While AI can create content instantly, it can never replicate the wisdom that flows through you as a vessel for higher consciousness. When you record unscripted, authentic content, you're channeling something no machine can access.
The Empath Advantage: As highly sensitive people, we can feel the difference between authentic and artificial content immediately. Your ideal clients (likely sensitive souls too) will gravitate toward your genuine expression.
Strategic Use of AI: Record your authentic podcast episode first, then use AI to create transcripts, social media posts, emails, and blog content - amplifying your real voice across platforms.
Human Design Connection: Every gate and channel moves toward the Throat Center - the center of manifestation. Suppressing your voice limits your impact in the world.
Key Takeaway: In a world of cookie-cutter AI content, your authentic voice isn't just valuable - it's your competitive advantage. While others get lazy with artificial content, you'll stand out by being courageously real.
Reflection Questions:
Can you feel the difference between authentic and AI-generated content?
Is your current work utilizing your full genius and unique gifts?
Are you ready to let your authentic voice be your competitive advantage?

✨🎙️🚀 7 Benefits of Podcasting Series - Benefit #5: Your Confidence May Go Through the Roof
Welcome to day 5! Today we're diving into perhaps the most transformational benefit of all - how podcasting becomes your confidence-building gymnasium, one episode at a time.
In this episode, I share:
Key Insight: Confidence isn't something that magically appears from energy healing sessions or external tools. It's built through consistent action, especially when you show up despite doubt, fear, or not feeling like it.
The Creator Shift: When you have a podcast, you shift from primarily consuming content to creating it. This is essential for entrepreneurs but also helps you step into your power and stop getting distracted by everyone else's opinions.
Human Design Connection: Gate 1 (Creativity) reminds us we're all creators, here to express ourselves authentically. Your podcast becomes the perfect vehicle for this expression.
Key Takeaway: There's no magic secret to confidence - and that's actually the good news. You build it one episode, one conversation, one truth-telling moment at a time.
Reflection Questions:
Are you more of a consumer or creator right now?
What would change if you built unshakeable confidence in your voice?
Are you ready to take that first step despite the fear?

Benefit #4: A Playground for Your Creativity

In this episode, I share:
Why we ALL are artists (not just painters and musicians)
How podcasting became my playground for self-discovery and growth
The beautiful dance between structure (consistency) and flow (creativity)
Why I've changed my podcast name multiple times (and why that's perfectly okay!)
How multi-passionate, highly sensitive people can thrive through podcasting
The Human Design perspective: Gate 1 (Creativity) and the 1-8 Channel (Self-Expression)
Why your biggest contribution is being your most authentic self
The "vessel moment" - when creativity flows through you rather than from you
How one podcast episode becomes multiple pieces of content with AI toolsWhy voice expression gets us out of our heads faster than writing
The truth about getting started when others seem "ahead"
Key Human Design Insight: Gate 1 teaches us that creativity comes from your identity - who you uniquely are. When this flows to Gate 8 (Contribution), your biggest gift to the world is being your most authentic self
The Vessel Effect: When you relax and let creativity flow through you, magic happens. You become a channel for higher consciousness, sharing messages meant for humanity.
Key Takeaway: Your podcast isn't just a business tool - it's a self-discovery journey where your purpose finds YOU as you express your authentic voice.
Reflection Questions:How would it feel to have a creative playground all your own?
What would you explore if you knew you couldn't get it "wrong"?
Are you ready to let your authentic voice surprise you?

I'm thrilled to share this empowering conversation with Salvatore Manzi, a leadership communications coach with over 20 years of experience helping executives, entrepreneurs, and leaders amplify their influence and impact. As an introvert himself, Salvatore understands the unique challenges we face and offers practical strategies for turning our authentic voices into compelling narratives.
What You'll Discover:
🎯 How to transform fear into curiosity and growth opportunities (instead of shame)
🧠 The "spotlight effect" and why people think about you less than you imagine
💪 Practical frameworks for organizing your thoughts when you have "a thousand variables" to share
❓ Why "afformations" (questions) work better than affirmations for building confidence
🗣️ The "break the seal early" strategy for introverts in meetings
From Disaster to Discovery
Salvatore's journey began with a complete speaking disaster - losing his voice on stage. Instead of choosing shame, he chose curiosity, asking "How did my body betray me?" This shift became the foundation for his career, leading him to study neuroscience and performance techniques to understand authentic communication.
Key Insights for Introverts
We explore why introverts often make the most thoughtful communicators - we're naturally more observant, considerate, and intentional. The challenge isn't our nature; it's learning to work with it. Salvatore shares his journey with people-pleasing and introduces the "FOG" framework - recognizing when Fear, Obligation, or Guilt drives our decisions.
His mantra "It's not about me" (repeated 10 times before speaking) shifts focus from self-consciousness to service. He also offers practical tools like afformations, the "spot it, got it" principle, and frameworks that organize thoughts while allowing for flow states.
The Power of Story
Salvatore's closing wisdom - "Metaphors move minds" - reminds us that while data informs, stories transform. As analytical thinkers, we often default to explaining, but metaphors and stories truly move people to action.
This conversation is perfect for introverted entrepreneurs, leaders wanting to communicate more authentically, or anyone ready to transform their relationship with speaking and being seen.
