When I first heard about Human Design, I felt overwhelmed.

There were charts, lines, shapes, strange terms... and a part of me thought, “I don’t have time for this right now.”

But I’m so glad I stayed curious.

Because learning about my Human Design type ended up being one of the most powerful tools I’ve come across - as a mom, a business owner and just as me.

And here’s the good news:

You don’t have to know everything at once.

Just understanding your type is already a huge step toward feeling more aligned, less burnt out and more like yourself again.

So if you’re wondering what the types actually mean, here’s a quick breakdown (mom-life edition):

💡 Generator

You’re a powerhouse of sustainable energy - when you’re lit up.
✅ Best when: responding to what excites you
⚠️ Burnout risk: saying yes to “shoulds”
Permission: You’re not meant to initiate - you’re meant to respond and follow your joy.

🌟 Manifesting Generator

You’re a multi-tasking dynamo with the energy to move fast - when you're lit up.
✅ Best when: following what excites you (even if it changes!)
⚠️ Burnout risk: forcing yourself to stick to one path or pace
Permission: You’re not meant to follow a straight line - you're meant to explore, pivot and trust the things that light you up.

🔥 Manifestor

You’re here to start things and blaze trails.
✅ Best when: following your inner urges
⚠️ Burnout risk: feeling controlled or interrupted
Permission: You don’t need to explain everything - just inform and go.

✨ Projector

You see deeply into others and systems. You’re here to guide.
✅ Best when: invited to share your insights
⚠️ Burnout risk: trying to keep up with others
Permission: Rest is productive. You’re not lazy - you’re wise.

🌕 Reflector

You’re a mirror of your environment - and deeply wise.
✅ Best when: in the right environment
⚠️ Burnout risk: being in the wrong place or with the wrong people
Permission: Time and space are your allies. You don’t need to rush.

Each type is beautiful in its own way.

And when you begin to understand your own rhythm, needs and decision-making style, everything starts to soften.

You’ll stop comparing yourself to others.

You’ll stop second-guessing your choices.

And you’ll start building your life and business around what actually works for you.

If this resonates and you're curious to take the next step, I created the Burnout Buster Cheat Sheet for Busy Moms - A gentle, easy guide to help you start recognising where you're misaligned and what to do about it.

There’s no “one right way” to be a mom, a business owner, or a woman.

But there is a way that feels right to you.

And that’s what Human Design helps you remember.
