All about Human Design! — How This Modality Can Change Your Life with Sam, Human Design Teacher for Mothers & Children.
What if you had a manual for your life — something that showed you who you truly are and how to thrive in alignment with your natural energy?
In this episode, I talk with Sam, a solo mama of two and a Human Design teacher who specialises in making Human Design practical — especially for motherhood and raising children in a way that honours who they already are 💛
We break down the basics of Human Design in a way that’s clear, empowering and totally beginner-friendly. Whether you're brand new to this system or looking to understand your chart on a deeper level, this conversation is a beautiful entry point.
✨ In this episode, we explore:
-What Human Design is
-The 5 energy types and how they show up in everyday life
-What’s the difference between Human Design for kids vs. adults? This is a big one so i'm going to explain here too!For adults, Human Design becomes a tool for reparenting — helping you unlearn the ways you were raised to forget who you truly are. This can show up as frustration, burnout, identity loss, and life feeling like a constant uphill battle. For kids, it’s about honouring a clean canvas — understanding their design early so we can raise them in alignment with their true nature. This supports them in trusting themselves and meeting their needs without having to fight to be seen or heard.
-How understanding your chart can lead to more ease, authenticity, and connection in your life
-Simple ways to start applying Human Design in everyday parenting, relationships, and self-discovery

New episode - getting in early for world meditation day this year! 21st of May 2025
🌈 Why Do an Inner Child Meditation?
To Remember Who You Were, Before the World Told You Who to Be.
As children, we were deeply connected to our soul's truth.We didn’t overthink our dreams — we just followed what lit us up.We played, created, explored, performed, nurtured, built, led, questioned, and imagined — all without fear of judgment or failure.
We knew the feeling of our purpose.Not the job title, not the "plan", but the essence.The energy.The natural way we showed up in the world.
But over time, we were shaped — by society, parents, teachers, media, peers.We learned what was "acceptable."We were told to be realistic.To tone it down.To make safe choices.To forget the magic.
So we forgot.
✨ What Inner Child Work Helps You Do:
Reconnect with the authentic parts of yourself that may have been buried or silenced
Hear the subconscious desires and emotional needs that still live within you
Access your purpose through feeling, not logic — by remembering how it felt to be alive, seen, and in flow as a child
Heal the core stories and blocks that were formed when you started to feel “too much” or “not enough”
Strengthen self-compassion and trust by building a loving relationship with your younger self
Receive intuitive guidance from the most unfiltered, free, and pure version of you
Begins at 3.25
Connect with me over on Insta @ikiagi_transformations... 🌸 I would love you to share your takeaway from the meditation!
I also offer subconscious reprogramming healing sessions for letting go of past pain aswell as reiki & soul-purpose mentoring...
If you’re ready to reconnect with the part of you that never forgot who you truly are — send her a message, or explore how we can work together.
Let’s bring your magic back to life. ✨
Sending you good vibes,
Amelia from Ikigai Transformations

LOVE over FEAR activation ~ to help you take action on your greater purpose Choosing love over fear does not mean all fears are dissolved or magically disappear. It means we are opening ourselves up to our fears being healed and transcended into a higher vibrational match that we deserve. When we choose to act from love, we are allowing ourselves to unlock the wisdom of our heart. Shifting and transmuting our fears to love requires practice with continuous and consistent acts of courage and resilience.This wisdom begins when you bring your awareness inwards which is why I have created this activation for you to do that. Reminding you that you’re safe and your purpose is to be your true self and to express yourself openly. If you would like to dive deeper into this with a more personalised approach 1 on 1 hypnotherapy sessions are available - DM ME over on @ikigai_transformationsCommunity is also key with acting from love so if you’re desiring an open hearted conscious community find your tribe @4.heartfrequency , we currently have regular meetups at Port Willunga Beach in SA. As always we would love to hear from you with any feedback.
Enjoy,

The tradition of the sweat lodge is thousands of years old and was practised by many tribes.
Walking into my very first experience I had no idea what to expect.
Scotty & I share our experience so you are a little more prepared with what to expect.
If you’re looking to try out this ceremonial experience rather than going to the everyday gym sauna you are sure to have a deeper experience where you will meet yourself, grow spiritually and maybe even have an emotional release.
They are all around SA and Australia. Message us over @conscious_contemplation if you need help finding one so you can give it a go!\
Follow Scotty on IG: honeyandmoccasinman - he sells custom fit moccasins and amazing all Australian Raw honey!
