My daughter who is the youngest person in my family, is also the ONLY one with Emotional definition / Authority. Being that roughly half of the population has Emotional Authority, this is wildly statistically anomalous for sure - but imagine if she was growing up in a home where no one understood or saw her for this difference? What would her story about herself become??

Most of us spend our lives trying to be someone we’re not. Sometimes it’s subtle—trying to be more “disciplined,” more “productive,” more “decisive.” Sometimes it’s more obvious—feeling like we’re fundamentally broken because we don’t seem to function like everyone else.

Human Design doesn’t give you a list of things to fix. It gives you permission to drop the shit that was never yours to carry in the first place.
