The Human Design Podcast — Education
The Human Design Podcast

The #1 Global Human Design Podcast for women ready to build success on their own terms.

Hosted by Human Design expert and business mentor Emma Shackleton (formerly Dunwoody), this is where the personal growth conversation gets real. If you’ve outgrown the hustle, the formulas, and the pressure to keep proving yourself, this is your permission slip to lead, earn, and expand in alignment with how you’re actually designed.

Each week, Emma shares powerful solo episodes (think: unfiltered wisdom, grounded strategy, and spicy rants you didn’t know you needed) alongside guest interviews with brilliant minds leading the new paradigm of business, leadership, and success.

Inside, you’ll learn how to:

Use your Human Design to create consistent income and impact

Stop outsourcing your power and start making clear, embodied decisions

Build a business that moves with you, not one that drains you

Reclaim your energy, magnetism, and momentum (without overriding your nervous system)

Emma’s unique approach, Transformational Human Design™, blends HD, behavioral science, the Gene Keys, coaching, and real-life application so you don’t just learn your chart… you start living it.

This is where clarity replaces confusion, where alignment becomes your business strategy, and where success stops being something you chase, and starts becoming who you are.

#487 How to Use Your North Node for Business Growth & Life Alignment Oct 22, 2025

Show notes

In today’s episode, I’m diving deep into one of my favourite parts of the Human Design chart, your North Node. This is such a powerful key to understanding your life path, why certain challenges keep showing up, and how to align your business with your true purpose.

I share how I work with my own North Node (Gate 34) and how it’s helped me build a business that’s rooted in self-empowerment, not strategy or force. I’ll walk you through what your nodes are, how they evolve with time (especially after your Uranus Opposition), and how to use them as a personal compass for business, purpose and even content creation.

This is one to geek out on, so grab your chart or get Maggie ready.

I trust you will get what you need from this episode, and make sure you come let me know how it resonated with you on instagram @the_human_design_coach

Big love,

#483. The Hidden Link Between Human Design and & Beauty, Aging and Empowerment with Mikaela MacLean Oct 02, 2025

Show notes

In this deeply moving and unexpectedly magical episode, Emma is joined by Human Design reader and aesthetician Mikaela MacLean for a soul-stirring conversation that redefines beauty, aging, and identity.

Mikaela isn’t just here to talk skincare, she’s here to flip the beauty industry on its head.

From her early days as a professional ballerina and medical aesthetician in dermatology and plastic surgery, to her awakening as a Human Design expert and auric esthetician, Mikaela shares the intimate journey of healing, shadow work, and reclaiming self-worth from the inside out.

Together, Emma and Mikaela explore how true beauty is found in energetic authenticity rather than external perfection, why your Human Design holds the keys to your confidence, visibility, and magnetism, and the raw truth about aging, menopause, and how women are conditioned to disappear.

Emma opens up about her own journey through Chiron, her 34 North Node, and reclaiming her power without apology. They also explore what it means to become the patron saint of your North Node sign and embody your soul’s purpose every day.

This isn’t a podcast about looking younger. It’s a call to embody your beauty through your frequency. If you’ve ever felt the pressure to shrink, hide, or fix yourself to be worthy, this episode will crack your heart open.

#478 You Don’t Need More Strategy...You Need to Become Her Sep 15, 2025

Show notes

In today’s episode, I’m coming to you poolside from Bali, bikini and all, to talk about the one thing that underpins every successful business, relationship and transformation...self-belief.

I’ve coached hundreds of people and built a global business, and I can tell you this: if you don’t believe in yourself, it doesn’t matter how good your strategy is. In this episode, I break down the real reason so many of us are still waiting to believe, and how to change that now using three powerful tools: identity work, Human Design and the Gene Keys, and conscious language.

If you’re tired of self-doubt or feel stuck in the waiting room of your own life, this episode is your reminder to stop waiting and start becoming.

I trust you will get what you need from this episode, and make sure you come let me know how it resonated with you on instagram @the_human_design_coach

Big love,

Mxx
