That Projector Life

That Projector Life

That Projector Life is the podcast for Human Design Projectors who are ready to learn and live their unique design. Hosted by 1/3 Self-Projected Projector Ardelia Lee, this show is all about exploring what it means to be a Projector from a practical standpoint. You're invited to listen in and dive into the foundations of the Human Design system - along with uniquely Projector topics like waiting for the invitation and recognition. We'll also cover how you can apply what you're learning to your life (practical application is the name of the game). read less

209. Why I'm Leaving That Projector Life
It's been almost 6 years since I started the That Projector Life podcast, and it's been a wonderful few years of growth, learning, and change. However, this is the last episode. I've finally felt the push to release That Projector Life and close up shop. And now that I've decided to cut cords, my Martyr line is adamant that we do it sooner rather than later. So while I realize this decision may seem out of the blue, I feel it's been a long time coming. I don't feel like I can give TPL much more, and I'm ok with that. I've had a good run here, and Human Design has helped me become more comfortable and happy with who I am. I believe I've done what I set out to do - create something I'm proud of, express myself authentically, and guide others along the way. I also feel the winds of change blowing me elsewhere (of course, I have no idea where specifically...just not here). And being me, I have to follow that path. It's also a little exciting to once again step into the unknown and find my way from scratch. This podcast - and the business around it - has been such a huge part of my life for so long that I will miss it. However, it's time for me to close the book on this chapter of my life. I'm ready to rest deeply. I'm ready to discover a new path. And I'm ready to release this wonderful creation. The podcast and the TPL website will remain available for a while longer. I would like them both to serve as a resource for as long as possible. I'll also open up the TPL Patreon to the public sometime in November. If you have any questions or last thoughts, you can find me via email at ardelia@thatprojectorlife.com. Thank you so much for joining me on this journey, whether you've been here for 1 episode or all 209. I truly appreciate you, and I wish you all the best in your journey.   Episode Links For all the links mentioned in this episode, check out the complete show notes: https://www.thatprojectorlife.com/tpl209/
205. How to Handle Inspiration (or a Lack of It)

205. How to Handle Inspiration (or a Lack of It)
In this episode of That Projector Life, we're looking at inspiration and the difference between mental inspiration and energetic inspiration. Have you ever felt like you have all the ideas - that everything is inspiring? Or maybe you've found that nothing is inspiring. You have no mental energy to pursue anything. I'd like to introduce you to the Head Center and mental inspiration. It's a necessity in life - it's what's given us so many great ideas to run with. However, mental inspiration can be a fickle mistress, especially when you have an undefined Head Center (and I am definitely speaking from personal experience here). So how do you handle mental inspiration (or a lack of it, since that's what you'll likely have after deconditioning the Head Center)? What can you do to remain inspired while still being in your own energy? This is where energetic inspiration comes in. It's tuning into your energy to allow your centers and channels to do their thing. Ready to explore this inspiration?

204. Thriving as a Splenic Projector With Alex Mufson
In this episode of That Projector Life, I'm joined by Splenic Projector Alex Mufson. Alex is a seasoned entrepreneur, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and founder and CEO of her latest company, Aspen Growth Coaching (AGC). We start off by talking about Splenic Authority, and Alex shares great insights and tangible action steps for Splenic Projectors who are new to their authority. (And if you don't have a Splenic Authority, this is a great way to begin understanding how it operates.) Alex also talked about running her business as a Splenic Projector and the flow that she's found in listening to her energy - including her defined Heart Center. (Did you know that the Heart Center (a.k.a. the Ego Center) is getting a little rebrand? Alex mentions that here - and helps us understand and love on this center a bit more.) This was such a down-to-earth conversation about Human Design, business, and how to work with your design in your own way.

200. Exploring the Depths of Emotional Authority With Kristin Quattlebaum
On top of that, I'm so excited to welcome back Kristin Quattlebaum to That Projector Life. Kristin is a 1/3 Emotional Projector, and in this episode, she's sharing how she's learned and grown since we last spoke with her. (I highly recommend checking out Kristin's first TPL interview. It's episode 85.) We talk a lot about emotions and emotional healing as Kristin shares about her approach to working with her emotional authority. She also walks us through the idea of a secondary authority and how that influenced her ability to connect with and work with her emotional authority. This was such a fun episode, and Kristin shares so much insight into the workings of the Solar Plexus and her own experiences with it. If you or someone you know is an emotional authority, I definitely recommend giving this episode a listen and reflecting on the power of emotions. And even if you're like me and don't have an emotional authority, Kristin's approach to emotions is definitely one worth reflecting on - because we do experience emotions.   Kristin's Links TPL085 - https://www.thatprojectorlife.com/tpl085/   Special Session - https://kqunplugged.as.me/tpl   Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/rewildingkq   Website - www.kqunplugged.co     Episode Links Check out the Projector Pivot Challenge and start working with your energy in just 12 days!

196. Exploring the Layers of Human Design With Leann Wolff
We have a super special guest on That Projector Life this week! Human Design Professional and BG5 Business & Career Consultant Leann Wolff is joining us to talk about all thing Human Design. We start off by discussing the Mani-Gen/Projector relationship and how it differs from that of a Generator/Projector one. (Those of you with both Mani-Gens and Generators in your house, take some notes.)  Then we move into talking about money, business, and manifesting as a Projector. And this is a huge topic, but Leann really did an amazing job of offering guidance on where we can look in our chart to determine the best path forward. She also shares her view that Projectors have a special connection with the quantum field due to our aura, something that comes into play when we talk about manifesting.  Leann also talked about Cognition and how we can use that to give us greater depth on whether or not an invitation is correct for us. We dove into my Smell cognition and discussed how I can literally smell invitations, something I'll definitely be leaning into in my own experiment.  If you want to connect more with Leann, check out her links below!

195. Understanding the Creative Cycle in Human Design

195. Understanding the Creative Cycle in Human Design
We're exploring the creative cycle, what it looks like, and how it shows up throughout the Human Design chart. (Notice that we're using the word "cycle" instead of "process" - that's going to be a big thing in this episode.) The creative cycle is a mysterious, sometimes frustrating thing to deal with. However, we'll explore the mechanics of it with some help from the Gene Keys system.  We'll dive into Gates 1 and 2 (a.k.a. Gene Keys 1 and 2) to talk about how and where they contribute to the creative cycle. Then, we'll look at how the creative cycle itself shows up in our lives - and what to do when we're in the shadow or winter part of it. (The answer here likely isn't going to be what you expect.) Finally, we'll zoom out and look at the Human Design chart to explore how creativity shines through the different centers.  And we'll hammer home the idea that inconsistency is ok - and it's actually how the centers work. (Not even the Sacral center is going to be on all the time. It also needs to rest.) Even if you don't feel like a creative soul, give this episode a listen - because I promise the creative cycle shows up in your life. You just may not be aware of it yet.  Episode Links Become a Patron and get access to exclusive content + early access to TPL episodes!

193. 5 Things to Do When You Dislike Your Design

193. 5 Things to Do When You Dislike Your Design
Have you been trying - and failing - to connect with your Human Design? Are you sometimes frustrated - or angry - with your design? How about just plain disliking it? In this episode, we'll address all of those feelings and go through some action steps you can take to begin to connect with your design.  It's important to note that not everyone connects with their design instantly. For some people, it can be a struggle to see themselves in their design. And it can feel rather lonely when you're feeling frustrated with your design while watching other people fall in love with theirs. While these action steps may not help you change your perception or feelings toward your chart overnight, they'll hopefully give you a place to start if you're ready to connect with your chart.  Ultimately, the biggest thing to keep in mind is to give yourself time and space to feel and process what you need to. If you feel like you're forcing things by doing this work, then take a step back and return at a later time. It's ok to take space if things aren't feeling correct.

191. How to Make Money as a Projector

191. How to Make Money as a Projector
In this episode, we're talking about a topic that pretty much every Projector I talk to asks me about: Money. Because making money as an aligned Projector is both straightforward and non-linear (rather like being a Projector, right?). It's possible for Projectors to make money as their true selves - but it will likely take some reprogramming.  And that's where this episode comes in. We'll talk about some steps you can take to begin shifting your understanding of money and how you relate to it. We'll look at your mindset and your energy around money and talk about how those impact your Projector journey. We'll also talk about how our Projector strategy and authority come into play when it comes to making money. And yes, we'll also talk about following your bliss because that's really important, too.  I'm under no illusion that this single episode will completely overhaul your relationship with money. That's not what it's here for. This episode is meant to plant some seeds - to help you change your perspective and to begin a new understanding of how your Projector energy is tied to money. Take what I say here with a grain of salt and find what works for you.  Episode Links Note: My links have changed since this episode dropped! (I've just moved platforms).

190. Human Design and the Power of Active Listening With Victoria Fragoso
Join me and my guest, Victoria Fragoso, as we talk about all things listening. We haven't talked much about listening on the podcast, and this episode aims to remedy that. Listening is such an important skill to develop. It enables us to really see - and hear - the other person. Being a good listener makes people feel like they matter - and that's an incredible gift to offer.  As Projectors, we're so often convinced that we know what to do and what others need, but it's also important to actually stop and listen to them. Victoria has fantastic suggestions that Projectors can use to help us hone our listening skills. And she shares her insights in actionable ways. Hearing Victoria speak about the importance of listening was so fun. I walked away with a lot to think about - and improve - when it comes to being a better listener.  Ready to brush up on your listening skills?
