I loved writing this for you Sarah, it was perfect having your invitation to respond to after our many online chats about my favourite subject!

Something I find absolutely beautiful about HD is how we actually all work together as the perfect team if we stick to our strategy and authority, and we stop trying to be something we’re not… it feels like a real release, an exhale, letting go of what we think we SHOULD do and doing what actually works instead.

I’m looking forward to working with you on your design over the summer!

Appreciate you taking the time to share your wisdom, Sarah! The prompts at the end were really helpful, too 😊

Anytime! And I'm glad you prompted me to add them, great Projector-y wisdom at work there Sarah ;)

Ooh I loved this one! I too am a projector and really struggle with the await the invitation. Good reminder that it's okay to slow dow and tend to myself first. Loving these collabs so much! Xx

How do you tackle the invitation side of things at the moment? I love Sarah’s tips for Projectors. She has threads dedicated to all Types!

Honestly, I find it really challenging. I find it so hard to promote my services, to sell, and to even share my substack posts on my socials or Notes, etc. I really want to build this community and ecosystem, and absolutely love my mentoring work with my clients, but I find it pretty hard to get clients and readers at the moment. I'm trying not to get myself too down about it, but there's a desire for more, but a struggle to join the dots with how to get there.

Plus then there's the added complications of all the other stuff right now and trying to show up for my family and juggle a million spinning plates, which means all of this is falling to the wayside anyway. I've wanted to rebrand and rewrite my website content and build out my blog properly for ages - with the hope that would bring more people into my radar with SEO etc - but I just can't find the energy to get started knowing it might not work either. It's all a bit messy, to be honest!

How are you finding it?? I'll definitely have to check out her other resources! Also sorry if I overshared! You invited me to share and it opened the floodgates! Haha! xx

Hey Cassie, thanks so much for your love on this post 🧡 ahhh I really hear you on the juggling and getting things going... and of course Projectors need to really think about energy use / where they're borrowing energy, as well as the whole invitation thing, which is often misunderstood!

The secret is to look after yourself first - yes, I hear it, I'm a busy mum too! - and just BE. Shine, write, share, BE you. And just don't offer advice and guidance without an invite. Focus on the people who've already invited you (your readers, follows etc) give them full flow YOU, be playful and show up for them wholeheartedly. They'll do the hard work and share you! And the right, juicy invitations will come, I promise.

You've got this! xx

Thank you so much for this, Sarah. Reading it felt like a much-needed breath of fresh air and sigh of relief!

I've been a long distance caregiver for my mum who has young onset Alzheimer’s and lives on the other side of the world from me for 5 years now and it's just... one step forward five steps back almost every day. It's not easy when trying to build a business and a life over here, too.

But this was a beautiful and much needed reminder that I can step back and focus on me, too. It's hard but I very much appreciate it and your lovely insights! Thank you 💜💜💜

You're so welcome love ❤️ we all need a nudge from time to time. You have full permission to focus on you, always. Thank you for your lovely feedback! 🧡

Not at all. This is a space for sharing!

I find it pretty challenging, too. There’s also the conundrum of sensing an invitation but not having the resources or sometimes even the desire to do it 😅

I’m in that liminal phase, too. One of trying to join the dots and figure out how best to channel my energy (the energy I have left that is) into building connection (largely with myself…because that comes first, right?) and growing community. I think collaborating certainly bridges some of that gap and creates opportunities.

I find that this messiness is almost always there when I’m on the precipice of change, so it might just be the same for you 💛

Here's hoping! It feels like I've been walking that line for so long but I also feel like a lot of this situation with my mum and stuff has to play out to give me the clarity I need to move forward. It would just be nice to have a little bridge or some stepping stones right now that make it feel a little easier - a little nudge in the right direction! Haha!

I'm absolutely up there with you on the limited energy and the desire to build connection and grow community, too. Although I wish the struggle wasn't real for either of us, it's honestly also so helpful to not feel alone with any of this. Very grateful our paths aligned and crossed when they did! Xx

I can't wait to hear more about your findings, Sarah (R)!

What a lovely contribution Sarah (L), I felt so understood in your words!

Thank you so much Nadja! Bringing human design to people in a meaningful way seems to be my path right now, I’m very joyfully following it! 🧡

I just had a read and it all makes so much sense! I am a Manifestor and everything Sarah (Lynas) said really resonates with me. Also, heiter seems to be the perfect Manifestor business 😉

Love that, Kiki! The more I read the more aligned I feel, so it's great you've had this immediate connection. Heiter really is a Manifestor brand. Part of me loves the Manifestor energy and I often wonder if I've previously tried to harness that when, maybe, I need to be a little more patient and settle into my own energy 😅

Ohh this is something we can all catch ourselves at… trying to be another Type..! Human design starts to strip away that comparisonitis and encourages staying in your own lane, it’s beautiful to witness the shift.
