Have you ever felt like you were living a life that wasn’t truly yours? Weighted down by expectations, fears, and societal norms? Imagine if you could uncover your unique energetic blueprint and break free from those limitations to live a life of abundance and authenticity. Today, on the Marketing Strategy Academy podcast, we dive deep into this transformative journey with the award-winning speaker and intuitive coach, Diamond Drip. Together, we explore how Human Design and Gene Keys can guide you to embrace your true self and step into your full potential.

From Burnout to Awakening: Diamond’s Journey

Diamond’s story is a testament to resilience and rediscovery. At a crossroads in her life, juggling multiple businesses, a degree program, and motherhood, she found herself on the verge of burnout. A clinical trial involving psilocybin opened her eyes to the necessity of change. This experience catalyzed her journey into Human Design and Gene Keys, tools that allowed her to reclaim joy, flow, and authenticity in her life.

Through introspection, Diamond realized that her true passion lay in helping others find clarity and heal. She pivoted her focus from business coaching to guiding individuals to understand their energetic blueprints, emphasizing that true transformation starts from within.

Understanding Human Design

Human Design is a synthesis of ancient and modern sciences, combining elements like astrology, the Chinese I Ching, the Kabbalah Tree of Life, and quantum physics. It provides a practical “owner’s manual” for understanding how your energy works and how to align it with your life and work.

For example, Diamond discovered she was a Generator, a type characterized by contagious energy and a natural ability to inspire others when aligned with work they love. This understanding validated her unique gifts and gave her the confidence to embrace her true path.

Exploring Gene Keys

Gene Keys takes a contemplative approach, diving deeper into themes like shadow work and vibrational frequencies. Each of us possesses a unique energetic makeup, with shadows (low frequencies) and gifts (higher frequencies). By addressing and transforming these shadows, we can unlock our highest potential.

Diamond explained how understanding her Gene Keys helped her move from a state of external validation to internal groundedness, allowing her to embrace expansion and superabundance.

Practical Applications: Aligning with Your Design

To begin your journey, Diamond recommends:

  1. Pulling Your Human Design Chart: Visit her website, DiamondDripConsulting.com, to access a free chart. This is the first step in understanding your energy type and design.
  2. Awareness and Reflection: Start listening to your inner critic and challenge beliefs rooted in fear or scarcity by asking, “How is this helpful?”
  3. Scheduling with Intention: Align your work and personal life with the phases of your menstrual cycle or emotional waves, leveraging periods of high energy for launches and networking.

Common Limiting Beliefs and Breaking Free

Diamond highlighted common struggles women face, like apologizing for taking up space or feeling trapped by societal expectations. Human Design helps break these barriers by promoting self-awareness and teaching us to honor our natural cycles and tendencies.

Key Takeaways for Growth

Diamond shared three transformative lessons:

  1. Human Design Validates Your Gifts: This tool provides clarity and confidence to embrace your unique strengths.
  2. Just Because You Can Doesn’t Mean You Should: Avoid spreading yourself too thin and focus on what truly matters.
  3. Comfort and Growth Can’t Coexist: Growth often requires stepping outside your comfort zone.

How to Work with Diamond

Diamond offers 90-minute personalized readings to help you understand and master your energy. During these sessions, she explores your energetic blueprint, purpose, and path to fulfillment. From there, you can decide to dive deeper into business coaching, spiritual development, or other avenues.

Bottom Line

Living authentically requires us to challenge long-held beliefs and align with our true selves. Tools like Human Design and Gene Keys provide a roadmap to navigate this journey, offering clarity, empowerment, and the freedom to step into your full potential. Whether you’re just starting or seeking deeper alignment, Diamond’s insights are a beacon for transformation.

The 5 Pillars of Profit: How to Grow Your Small Business on Your Terms with Emily Kim

Feeling the endless grind with your small business? Wishing there was a strategy to build a truly fulfilling venture? Emily Kim, former software engineer turned creative business strategist, has the answer. Her five pillars of profit will transform your small business, giving you the growth and alignment you crave.

Key Highlights

 

Interview

Jen: Welcome Emily! Tell us about your windy road from corporate tech to photography studio owner.

Emily: I left my job at Apple in 2021, way ahead of schedule. Initially, I planned to keep my full-time job while building my studio on the side. But when I saw that perfect space, I went for it. That’s the best decision I’ve ever made.

Jen: You talk about the five pillars of profit. What are they?

Emily:

  1. Craft: Your skill set (photography, design, etc.)
  2. Offer: How you package your craft into something sellable.
  3. Message: How you communicate your offer in a way that’s clear and compelling, making clients understand why they need your services.
  4. Community: Your audience. Remember, conversation is better than broadcasting.
  5. Systems: Your way of working. This includes technology but also things like workflows and time management.

Jen: Which pillar is most overlooked or misunderstood by small business owners?

Emily: Systems. Creatives often feel like systems will hold them back, but the truth is they’ll set you free. When you have good systems, you have way more brainpower to spend on the fun stuff.

Jen: Can you describe a business that was struggling, what pillar helped them shift, and the results they experienced?

Emily: One person I worked with really leaned into building her community through in-person networking events. It perfectly matched her personality. She now has clients, collaborators, and even hosts events thanks to her consistent networking.

Jen: How can business owners move from surviving to thriving, aligning their business with their values and time constraints?

Emily: The magic of the five pillars framework is you don’t have to implement everything all at once. Focus on building one pillar at a time, and choose strategies within each pillar that work for you and suit your strengths.

Jen: What’s a big packaging misconception?

Emily: That you always need something new and flashy. Keep it consistent and simple at first. Sell the same thing over and over, making tweaks based on client feedback. Consistency is key until you gather enough data to make informed changes.

Jen: How can business owners really lock in on their ideal clients and the services they actually need?

Emily: Do your research! Interview past or ideal clients. Ask open-ended questions like, “How would you describe what I do?” and “Why did you choose my services?” Their words are your best copywriting tool.

Jen: Can you move a business forward the fastest?

Emily: That depends! Rank your confidence in each pillar from 1 to 5. The area where you feel least confident is likely what’s holding you back and will give you the biggest leap forward once improved.

Jen: What are three things that helped you grow your business?

Emily:

  • Nervous System Regulation: Staying calm when things get tough.The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron helped me immensely (especially Morning Pages!).
  • Profit First: This book by Mike Michalowicz changed how I manage my finances and made taking my business full-time possible.
  • Market Research: Building a Story Brand by Donald Miller. Help with your market research.
