Hack the Law of Attraction to go from doing to being
Today with the beauty of Irene McKenna’s words and message, we talk human design strategy!
Finally, a human design episode.
It’s my great pleasure to welcome Irene.
But first a couple words on the evolution and revolution that is a map, an energetic blueprint, or a chart based precisely on the moment a birth takes life…
The moment a consciousness says, YES, I’m ready, and I’m here…
While it’s true that we’re psychological phenomena expressing DNA, we often shrug away the immense power of our esoteric contexts. Our soul calling.
Or, that’s my paraphrasing of astrologer Steven Forrest in an exposition of evolutionary astrology, a collision between ancient metaphysics and modern psychological astrology:
So much of psychology—and again I don't really for a second mean to sound like I'm negative about it—it's just that it becomes so much more powerful when we put it in the context of these ancient truths and these larger truths.
It was the great Jungian psychologist James Hillman, after all, who said that the soul has a code. And—like an acorn destined for the oak tree—this code is inborn.
“An acorn does not have to say, ‘I intend to become an oak tree'. Natural intelligence intends that every living thing become the highest form of itself and designs us accordingly.”
―Sonya Renee Taylor, The Body Is Not an Apology: The Power of Radical Self-Love
Without getting too mystical about it…
Equity as divine alignment is both worldly and spiritual. We can’t see the holistic point of view in the fight for justice on the ground if we deny ourselves as part in a whole—and this includes a whole cosmic universe.
So I am grateful for systems like Human Design…
A system that combines ancient wisdoms like astrology, the chakra system, the Chinese I-Ching, and the Jewish Kabbalah with quantum physics…
For while it can be fun to joke around about our types and our strategies, the underlying depth is one of spiritual service.
Irene McKenna said it beautifully when she said we’re here to be who we truly are.
We’re here to be who we were born to be.
Like the acorn born to be the tree.
Or, in my case, a 2-4 splenic projector.
Were it not for honoring my human design strategy, I wouldn’t have waited for the invitations…
Like the invitation to accept, for instance, a fully-remote full-time job as a writer…
When assuredly some part of me in the past never truly imagined or believed I could support myself as a writer.
Meet Irene
What if success didn’t require self-sacrifice?
What if the secret wasn’t doing more—but aligning deeper?
I’m Irene, Alignment Specialist for high-achieving women who are done hustling for a version of success that doesn’t feel like their own.
I work with leaders who are ready to stop abandoning their truth and start magnetizing everything they desire—by shifting their frequency, not their to-do list.
Because here’s what I know: frequency trumps everything. When you calibrate to your truth, life begins to bend in your favor. Business grows. Relationships deepen. Opportunities find you.
I help my clients hack the Law of Attraction through energetic alignment—so they create success that feels like freedom in every area of their lives.
This isn’t about striving. It’s about syncing with the version of you who already has it all.
If you're ready to stop performing your life and start living it—let’s connect.

See you next time on the new moon,
p.s. My profound reverence always for Akimi Lounsberry, a fellow projector with splenic authority, who first introduced me to human design ;) Also a shout-out to , another splenic projector friend whom I’ve met in the online world. I’ll quickly plug that I’m sure Christina is your go-to for OBM and social media management in the spiritual entrepreneur space! An astrology buff with a beautiful newsletter, she is someone I can imagine on a future plant-based power podcast and make it a group pod…
