Ep82: The Reflector Experience: Vulnerability, Deconditioning, and Growth with Annie Richardson

In this heartfelt episode, I provide an update of the year of 2024 for my lived experience and tap into the beauty and challenges of living as a Reflector in Human Design. During this solo episode, I share my personal insights about aligning with strategy and authority, the power of waiting, and navigating deconditioning through lived experiences. I reflect on the transformative lessons of retreating, exploring vulnerability, and embracing my profile dynamics as a 5/1.
I also share a little of my recent deconditioning retreat and the joy of mentoring others.
This is where I am at these days... In the deliciousness of depth and wonder at life.
