In this episode of the Holistic Human Design Conference Podcast, we dive deep with Guido, an original student of Human Design with over 30 years of experience. As a manifester with the emotional 12-22 channel, Guido shares a raw and honest conversation about emotional processing, the impact of conditioning, and the courageous act of truly expressing oneself.
We explore topics ranging from the deep layers of emotional authority, the challenges of deconditioning, to the powerful metaphor of “cutting the umbilical cord” from societal and familial expectations.
Whether you’re curious about how Human Design can support emotional healing or want to feel seen in your own struggle for self-expression, this conversation is a must-listen.
Key Takeaways:
Emotional Honesty Over Emotional Control: Guido shares his long journey of learning to express emotions authentically, without making impulsive decisions based on emotional waves.
The Power of Expression for Manifestors: Informing reframed as “expressing”; allowing emotions, even anger, to be expressed without fear of rejection or misunderstanding.
Conditioning Runs Deep: A candid reflection on how early childhood experiences and societal norms shape our emotional expression and how difficult (but essential) it is to decondition.
The Matrix, Mothers & Emotional Independence: Guido speaks to the metaphor of still being energetically attached to our mothers and how true personal freedom requires emotional separation.
Music & Emotional Processing: An intimate story of how losing and regaining hearing in one ear became a symbolic healing journey through music, connecting his 12-22 channel to health and emotional well-being.
Skepticism of “Watered Down” Human Design: A grounded take on the current popularization of Human Design and why returning to basics is more impactful than chasing complex theories.
