Rediscovering Yourself with Human Design: Lauren's Story | Healing Heroines

This week's Healing Heroine is all about how to stop going through the motions, living your life on autopilot. We hear from Hero and Human Design Coach Zach Carlsen's client, Lauren. They unpack Lauren's series of life-changing moments — from a sudden loss and a medical scare to reclaiming personal agency — and explain how human design helped her make gentler, clearer decisions.  

Zach breaks down practical ways you can use your human design chart to help move through grief, fear, or uncertainty with more ease.
