November 2026 transits are here, and I’m back with my beautiful transit crew, Yvette Mayer on Human Design and Lauren Hansen on astrology, to walk you through everything coming your way this month. We start with what Venus retrograde stirred up for each of us in October (my month completely cracked open), then map out November week by week so you know when to pause and when it’s go time.

This is a big one, my friend. We’ve got Mercury and Venus stationing direct on the same day, a powerful mid-month alignment in the gate of yes, a full moon that could bring some surprises, and a run of sacral gates heading straight into the biggest revenue season of the year. If you’re planning a launch, a Black Friday offer or just want to stop saying yes to the wrong things, listen to this before your calendar fills up.

What You’ll Learn:

• Why the collective is finally leaving months of emotional definition, and what that frees up for you
• The mid-month window when Mars, Jupiter and the South Node line up in gate 29, and how to choose your yeses wisely
• What the new moon in Scorpio and full moon in Gemini are asking you to let go of
• How the sun gates (44, 1, 43, 14, 34 and 9) move us from intuition into action and revenue
• When the energy shifts around Black Friday, so you can time your offers and your shopping

Motherhood and creativity are at the heart of this one, and I loved every minute. Lauren LoGrasso is back on the show, and she’s lived a whole lifetime since we last spoke. She got married, walked away from her corporate podcast job, built a business that out-earned her salary within a month, and welcomed her son Leonardo. We talk about matrescence, the identity shift nobody prepares you for, and how burning out on weekly consistency taught her to stop doing things just because she “should.”

This one’s for you if you’re a mum, you want to be one, or you’re a creative woman who’s been told her career dries up once the baby arrives. Lauren has noticed a pattern across hundreds of her guests that flips that story on its head. We get into creativity and AI and the creative debt you might be carrying. Then I pull up Lauren and Leonardo’s Human Design connection chart and share what I’d look for in any child’s chart.

What You’ll Learn:

• Why so many women hit their greatest creative and career success after having kids
• How matrescence reshapes your identity, and why that can fuel your work
• What “creative debt” is and how to start paying it down, even in the newborn fog
• How to work with AI in a way that keeps your own creativity alive
• What to look for in your child’s Human Design chart, from authority and profile to their unique timing

Human Design Authority and money is where my experiment gets really practical, and today we’re going there. This is episode three of my Money and Human Design series, so if you’re just landing here, go back and start with money and type, then money and strategy, and come back to me. I’m walking you through how your authority, your body’s built-in way of making decisions, becomes your power seat for every money choice, from the big investment calls to the tiny everyday ones.

This one is for the woman who’s been handed the story that money belongs to a small club of people who aren’t her. I share the week I slipped into an old scarcity pattern while chasing a savings goal, the small and slightly counterintuitive decisions that pulled me out of it, and what landed in my account afterwards. Then I go through each authority so you can feel what a correct money decision looks like for you.

What You’ll Learn:

• Why your authority is your ultimate permission slip to take back the power seat with money
• How to tell the difference between your conditioned mind and your body’s guidance when money is on the line
• Why the small money decisions matter as much as the big ones, and how they build trust in yourself
• What a correct money decision looks and feels like for your specific authority
• How to use expert support and AI to learn about money without giving your power away

Chapters:

00:00 — Your Human Design is your ultimate permission slip
00:54 — Welcome to episode three of the Money series: authority as your permission slip
03:01 — Why authority is so underestimated in the Human Design world
05:24 — What authority is: moving decisions out of the conditioned mind

12:35 — Setting an intention and letting your authority guide you to the right people
