Human Design, Science & Behavior Analysis with The Mermaid Light

In this episode of Everyday ABA, host Paola Ortiz and co-hosts Leslie and Brittanny sit down with intuitive human design guide Lauren Oberly Pearlingi to explore how Human Design and behavior analysis can work together to help people understand themselves, break old patterns, and create meaningful change. They dive into what Human Design is, how it combines quantum physics, astrology, and ancient systems, and how it can be used alongside ABA concepts to improve emotional regulation, self-trust, and everyday decision-making. The conversation touches on recognizing frustration or bitterness as cues for behavior shifts, the role of intuition in personal growth, and practical ways to use your unique design to strengthen relationships, parenting, and coping skills. Tune in to learn how blending science and spirituality through Human Design can help you live with more alignment, purpose, and self-awareness.

After listening to this episode, participants will be able to:

• Define Human Design and explain its core components in the context of individual differences and private events within Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA).
• Describe how Human Design concepts can be framed as potential motivating operations (MOs) or discriminative stimuli (SDs) that influence observable behavior and reinforcement effectiveness.
• Identify strategies to assess clients’ private events, such as feelings of frustration or bitterness, and translate these into measurable, observable behaviors aligned with behavior analytic practice.
• Analyze ways to adapt reinforcement systems and intervention plans by accounting for individual learner profiles, drawing parallels to tailoring supports for diverse clients and cultural responsiveness.
