Feeling like you “know” your Human Design… but still can’t seem to get unstuck?You’re not broken — you’re just caught in the Not-Self loop that every Human Design type faces.
In this video, we’re unpacking the shadow side of Human Design through the ADHD lens — where awareness can actually amplify overthinking, perfectionism, or paralysis if you don’t know how to work with it.
You’ll learn:
⚡️ The biggest shadow pattern for each Human Design type
⚡️ Why ADHDers get trapped in the Not-Self state longerIf you’ve ever felt like Human Design made you more aware but less clear, this one’s for you.👇
Want to take this deeper?
Join me for the ADHD + Human Design Foundations Workshop, starting Monday — where we’ll break down how to work with your wiring (not against it) to build systems that actually stick.

Perimenopause is already a wild ride — add ADHD to the mix, and it can feel like your brain (and life) has been hijacked. In this video, I break down what the data actually says about how hormonal shifts impact ADHD symptoms in women, why so many of us are being abandoned by the medical system during this critical transition, and what you can do about it.We’ll cover: • What science tells us (and doesn’t) about ADHD and perimenopause • How estrogen fluctuations affect focus, mood, and motivation • Practical steps to support your brain, hormones, and nervous system • How your Human Design can guide you through this season with more grace and less chaosThis isn’t just about surviving — it’s about reclaiming your power and rewriting the narrative around women’s health and what it means to be neuro-spicy while navigating perimenopause.👉 Join us in the ADHD + Human Design Workshop here: https://www.ashleybrianaeve.com/adhd-human-design-foundations#adhd #adhdawareness #adhdhumandesign #adhdinwomen #adhders #adhdperimenopause

If you have ADHD, that constant fear of “wasting your potential” isn’t just in your head — it’s a pattern wired into how your brain and nervous system respond to pressure.In this video, we’re unpacking: • My own story of dealing with a lifetime of feeling like never "lived up to my potential". •. How perfectionism, shame, and self-pressure feed the burnout loop • How Human Design helps you thrive through understanding yourself on a deeper level.Whether you’ve been told you’re “not living up to your potential” your whole life, or you just feel stuck in a loop of big ideas and no follow-through — this one’s going to help you see yourself clearly, not critically.Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@adhdandhumandesignJoin us in the ADHD + Human Design 3 Day Workshop!

ADHD brains live under constant pressure — from deadlines, expectations, and even their own thoughts. But what if that pressure isn’t just in your head?In this episode of ADHD in Human Design, we’re digging into the Root Center and how it drives stress, urgency, and that “always behind” feeling so many ADHDers know too well. We’ll also connect the dots to the vagus nerve — the body’s built-in regulator of fight, flight, and freeze. When tension gets trapped in your system, it doesn’t just mess with your focus — it keeps you locked in survival mode.You’ll learn: • How the Root Center creates pressure and what that means for ADHDers • The link between neck tension, the vagus nerve, and emotional dysregulation • Practical ways to release pressure and shift your body back into balanceIf you’ve ever felt like your stress is running the show, this episode gives you the insight — and the tools — to finally take the driver’s seat.

Do you feel stuck in cycles of guilt and shame with ADHD?In this episode, we explore the complex interplay between ADHD, guilt, and shame, using Human Design as a groundbreaking lens to understand and shift these patterns.I dive into the research (did you know 73% of adults with ADHD report significant feelings of guilt related to their condition?) and explain how traditional approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy address guilt and shame.Then, we go deeper by examining Human Design’s Motivation variable—specifically my own: Hope motivation with transference to Guilt.I break down what it means to transfer out of your core motivation into the not-self, why ADHDers are particularly prone to this, and how this compounds cycles of guilt and shame.We also look at the difference between the Human Design motivation of Guilt and the feeling of guilt often experienced by ADHDers. By recognizing both the behavioral and energetic drivers behind these patterns, we can explore a more holistic approach to breaking free from guilt and shame.Whether you’re familiar with Human Design or just starting your journey, this episode offers new insights into why ADHDers struggle with guilt and how to move toward alignment with your true motivation.Join me for a nuanced discussion that blends research, energy, and practical tools to create real shifts in your life!

Let’s talk about rejection sensitivity, ADHD, and the misunderstood world of open centers in Human Design — especially for ADHDers. In this episode, we break down how an open Solar Plexus can magnify the fear of emotional conflict and why so many people with ADHD feel like they’re too much or not enough.Using Justin Baldoni’s Human Design chart as a real-life example (yes, we get into that viral 2AM voice note he left Blake Lively), we explore: • What rejection sensitivity actually looks like in the ADHD brain • How open emotional centers process conflict and feedback • Why people-pleasing, perfectionism, and ghosting are often just nervous system protection • How to navigate your own emotional landscape through Strategy & Authority — instead of spiraling in self-doubtWhether you’re newly diagnosed or deep in your deconditioning journey, this episode will help you feel seen, grounded, and a little less alone.🎧 Subscribe to ADHD & Human Design on YouTube and your favourite podcast app for weekly episodes that decode your wiring — and help you work with it, not against it.Learn more about me here: https://www.ashleybrianaeve.com/
