Why "Follow Your Passion" Is Terrible Advice
You've heard it your whole life. Follow your passion. Find your thing. And if you're honest, that advice has probably made you feel worse, not better, because you've looked and looked and either nothing comes up, or everything feels equally flat, and you're starting to wonder if you missed something everyone else seems to have found.
In this episode, Matalya breaks down why passion isn't the starting point, what actually comes first, and how your Human Design Authority changes the way you're supposed to know.
In this episode:
* Why "follow your passion" is well-meaning advice that leaves most people feeling more stuck, not less
* The difference between something that excites you and something that is actually yours
* How your Human Design Authority is designed to guide you, and why it has nothing to do with enthusiasm or excitement
* What clarity actually looks like before passion arrives, and why that order matters
* A simple practice to start asking a better question than "what am I passionate about"
Listener Practice
This week, swap the question. Instead of asking what you're passionate about, ask what feels like yours. Notice how something lands when you imagine other people's reaction to it versus how it feels when you imagine yourself doing it quietly, without an audience. You don't have to have an answer yet. Just notice the difference. Not sure what your authority is? Run your free Human Design chart at rewritecoaching.co/blueprint t [www.reweritecoaching.co/blueprint]o get started.
