Unjaded: Human Design for Intentional Entrepreneurs

200. Human Design Manifestor Panel Discussion

HUMAN DESIGN MANIFESTORS: ANGER, INITIATION, BURNOUT, AND THE TRUTH ABOUT USING YOUR VOICE In this episode of Unjaded, Vickie Dickson hosts a powerful Human Design Manifestor panel with Rachel Kelter (2/4 Emotional Manifestor), Jahje Ives (5/1 Emotional Manifestor), and Sandy Bath (4/6 Emotional Manifestor) This is an honest, lived conversation about what it actually means to be a Manifestor in a world that was not built for Manifestor energy — especially for women. The panel explores childhood conditioning, anger as information, burnout from over-initiating for others, and the deep re-learning required to trust your voice, your timing, and your need for rest. Rather than explaining Human Design mechanics, this episode focuses on real experiences: what was silenced, what erupted as anger, what led to burnout, and what it looks like to reclaim peace. IN THIS EPISODE, WE EXPLORE: 1. What it’s like to grow up as a Manifestor and learn to play small 2. Anger as a core Manifestor signal, not a flaw 3. Why silencing, interruption, and unsolicited advice hit Manifestors so deeply 4. Informing as an act of love, not permission-seeking 5. The cost of initiating for everyone else and leaving nothing for yourself 6. Burnout cycles in Manifestor women, especially in midlife 7. Rest, creative flow, and learning when to stop pushing 8. Parenting Manifestor children and allowing emotional expression 9. Healing the throat and voice after years of suppression YOU’LL HEAR REAL CONVERSATIONS ABOUT: 1. Being told to “think before you speak” and learning to distrust your instincts 2. Feeling seen but not understood from a young age 3. Anger turning inward when expression isn’t allowed 4. The pressure to keep up with Generators and Manifesting Generators 5. Learning to set boundaries without guilt 6. Reclaiming peace by honouring rest and energetic limits THIS EPISODE IS FOR YOU IF: 1. You are a Manifestor (or have one in your life) and feel misunderstood 2. You’ve experienced burnout from always initiating, leading, or holding things together 3. Anger has been labeled a problem instead of information 4. You struggle with rest, boundaries, or asking for help 5. You’re ready to stop shrinking and start trusting your voice again This conversation is a permission slip — to rest, to inform without apologizing, to stop over-initiating, and to remember that your anger and your voice are not problems to fix, but signals guiding you back to yourself. Not that you need permission!!! 🤣

199 Human Design and Burnout | The Cost of Pushing Through

Burnout isn’t a personal failure — it’s often a sign you’re building a business that was never designed to honour YOU. In this episode of Unjaded, Vickie Dickson breaks down why building your business according to your Human Design isn’t just a “nice-to-have,” but the only sustainable way she’s found — after more than 30 years of entrepreneurship — to avoid burnout entirely. Using a powerful real-life case study of a 6/2 Manifestor in deep burnout, Vickie walks you through how ignoring your natural energy rhythms eventually catches up to you — in your sales, your launches, your health, and your creativity. This episode is a call to stop forcing yourself to work the way the online world demands — and start honouring how you’re actually designed to operate, lead, rest, and create impact. If things that used to sell easily are suddenly stalling… If your body feels exhausted but your mind keeps pushing… If you’re questioning whether you can keep going the way you have been… This conversation will land. WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE: 1. Why burnout is a design problem, not a mindset problem 2. How Manifestors burn out by pushing through instead of honouring rest cycles 3. What a “closed” (self-contained) aura actually means for Manifestors in business 4. Why launches and sales stop converting when your energy is depleted 5. How ignoring your creative flow eventually impacts your health 6. The hidden conditioning behind overworking, especially with a defined Will 7. Why many 6-line profiles feel like they’re failing before stepping into legacy 8. How pre-selling legacy work can create space for rest and recovery 9. Why the most magnetic offers right now are built your way, not the algorithm’s 10. The early signs your business is asking you to slow down — before your body forces it KEY TAKEAWAY: You are the engine of your business. If you run yourself into the ground, the entire system collapses. Human Design isn’t about doing less — it’s about doing what actually works for your energy so you can create impact without burning out again. Your business should support your life — not consume it.

198. Building a Sustainable Online Business Without Chasing the Next High

What if the real way entrepreneurs sabotage their businesses isn’t when things aren’t working — but when they finally are? In this episode of Unjaded, Vickie Dickson breaks down a pattern she sees over and over again in online business: abandoning the very foundations that create stability once momentum starts to build. As sales become steadier and systems begin to work, many entrepreneurs get restless, bored, or convinced something must be wrong because it feels “too easy.” The result? They burn it down, rewrite offers, rebuild funnels, and start from scratch — again. Vickie calls this out for what it really is: not failure, not laziness, not lack of alignment — but nervous system protection mixed with unrealistic expectations about ease, excitement, and sustainability in online business. This episode is a grounded, honest conversation about building the skeleton of your business — the unsexy systems that keep working even when motivation dips, creativity wanes, or your emotional wave is low. If you’re in the in-between phase — where things are working but not explosively yet — this episode will help you stay the course instead of sabotaging what you’ve worked so hard to build. WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE: 1. Why entrepreneurs often sabotage momentum after success starts 2. What Vickie means by the “skeleton” or “spine” of a sustainable business 3. The difference between ease and easy when it comes to making money online 4. Why low-ticket offers, email sequences, and follow-up matter more than launches 5. How Manifesting Generators often chase novelty and burn down working systems 6. Why boredom, restlessness, or itchiness can be signs your business is stabilizing 7. The danger of rebuilding offers instead of driving traffic to what already works 8. How consistency, repetition, and time actually create sustainable income 9. Why “passive income” is a misleading idea — and what steady income really requires 10. How to keep growing your business without breaking your life KEY TAKEAWAY: When your business starts to feel steady instead of exciting, that doesn’t mean something is wrong — it means something is finally working. Sustainable businesses aren’t built on adrenaline. They’re built on foundations that keep running even when the novelty wears off. Don’t burn down the structure that’s holding you just because you’re bored. LINKS AND RESOURCES: 1.

This episode of Unjaded is a must-listen for Generators and Manifesting Generators who know their Human Design—but still don’t actually know how to use their sacral. Vickie Dickson breaks down, in real-world language, what sacral response actually feels like in the body, why it’s been conditioned out of most people, and how to retrain yourself to trust it again. She busts common myths, explains why overthinking kills magnetism, and walks through simple, practical ways to “tone” your sacral so it can do what it’s designed to do: guide you toward the right work, decisions, opportunities, and people. This isn’t theory. This is lived experience—especially for emotional authority Generators who’ve been taught to second-guess their gut. If you’ve ever felt paralyzed by small decisions, overridden your instincts, or talked yourself out of inspired action, this episode will change how you move through life and business. WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE 1. What Sacral response actually feels like in the body 2. Why most Generators and Manifesting Generators don’t trust their sacral 3. How sacral sounds (uh-huh / uh-uh) get conditioned out of us early in life 4. Why multiple-choice questions shut down your sacral intelligence 5. How to use yes/no questions to retrain your sacral response 6. The difference between mental decision-making and embodied response 7. How emotional authority interacts with sacral response 8. Why excitement isn’t the point—energy is 9. How overthinking kills magnetism, creativity, and aligned momentum 10. What it means to truly live “in response” without forcing or chasing KEY TAKEAWAY Your sacral isn’t here to be analyzed. It’s here to be trusted. When Generators and Manifesting Generators stop overriding their gut, stop waiting for permission, and stop talking themselves out of response, life gets easier. Opportunities arrive. Energy returns. Decisions clarify. Your sacral is a motor—and when you let it lead, it magnetizes exactly what’s meant for you. LINKS AND RESOURCES 1.
