In this week’s episode of Inside the Mind, Jen and Allie deep dive into Gene Keys and Human Design — but not in the way you think.
This isn’t about another personality test or a system to neatly label yourself. It’s about seeing what’s actually been running the show in your life on a cellular level.
Jen shares how her perspective on mediocrity and compromise was shattered, exposing hidden layers of conditioning she’d accepted as “good enough.” Meanwhile, Allie unpacks how hunger and impatience have shaped her behaviours — especially around emotional eating and how Gene Keys helped.
This episode is about recognising the truth of who you already are, stripping back the conditioning, and getting real about what’s possible when you stop living on autopilot.
If you’ve ever felt like there’s more to you than what you’ve uncovered so far, this episode is for you.

Action Items:
Focus on the Power of Three — three major focuses per week, three micro-tasks per day.
Reflect: Where in your life have you accepted mediocrity as “great”? What’s the next level?
Pick one area of your life. Sit with the question: “What if I’ve not been seeing the full picture?” Let the insights drop in.
Quotes:
“Being an information junkie isn’t mastery. It’s just collecting. The real work is in the embodiment.”
“Mediocrity disguises itself in ‘this will do.’ But does it really?”
Takeaways:
You can’t self-improve your way to freedom. If you’re just collecting knowledge without applying it, you’re just keeping yourself busy.
Knowing yourself isn’t the flex. Living your truth is. If you’re still explaining yourself instead of being the proof, there’s work to do.
Your “good enough” is still keeping you small. If you’re not questioning where you’ve settled, you’re probably settling everywhere.
