Chapters
It's never too late to pivot. You're always safe to pivot. You can slow down whenever you want. And even if you're afraid that when you slow down that you will lose your house, your car, your everything, start taking inventory on how supported you actually are. And that will help you just learn to slow down so that when you do pivot, it's with intention. You need to understand that there is more. You are more. You're capable of more. And you don't have to compromise and sacrifice anything to live more.
Hi, I'm Zaakirah, and I am the host of the See Life Different podcast. This podcast is perfect for you if you are a Black, Indigenous woman of color ready to step outside of your comfort zone. This podcast will inspire you, empower you, and educate you on how to see life differently, whether it's in your business or in your personal life. I am a cancer survivor, brand cultivating strategist, author, and world traveler. Let's get into it.
Danielle is the founder of a Human Design and Gene Key coaching business. After 24 years of being an RN, a registered nurse, she was exhausted, burned out, and tired of the financial struggle. So then she discovered Human Design, and within just 3 weeks, her whole life changed. And in less than 2 years, she went from corporate burnout to becoming a million-dollar earner. Now she's founded Wealthy and Aligned by Human Design, and she's on a mission to help women around the world unlock the millionaire within using her high-frequency formula to find unique paths to prosperity. She believes that abundance is every woman's birthright, that you are aligned energetically with your destiny, and that can be the fastest way to achieving it, and that's what she's gonna talk about today. So welcome, Danielle. How are you?
Oh, I'm doing so good. I'm so grateful that you had me on today. I'm grateful that we were able to connect.
Yes. So tell me more about that pivot, right? Being an RN for a very long time is an amazing accomplishment. But what was that minute that you knew, okay, I don't wanna stick to this job. I really wanna choose abundance. What was that pivotal moment for you?
Looking back, I'm even so proud of myself for doing it because it was really a miracle that I actually did it because it just went against everything that I had been taught, that I had been told would be the way that my life would be lived the best way. I would be the most successful. I was a nurse. My parents told me, you'll never be out of a job because everybody's going to need a nurse at some point. And the cool thing is, Danielle, you get to wear your pajamas to work. And I really, I loved it there for the first few years. And then I realized that. Healthcare wasn't actually a system that was in alignment with my value. It took me 20 years to realize that I had a value. My value was really in, I wanna help people. This is a hard place to be and I just wanna help people. And it's like the veil lifted and I looked around myself and I was like, that's not what the healthcare system is doing. We are not helping anybody. We are using Band-Aids and we're profiting off of people's pain. So I cannot in good conscience do this. At the same time, I was looking around my career and I had nurses as friends who were older, 60, 70, and they were still broke, burnt out, and barely able to walk down the aisle of the nursing floor and always complaining about something and having back pain and all these things. I thought, you know what? I can't do this to my body. If this is what this is going to be, I'd had to hold my bladder for 16 hours. And I look back on that time in my life and I'm like, how did I ever do that? Because it was just, no human should be treated that way at work, right? I'm sure we feel that way in all different areas, but all of this culminated altogether. And I remember there was an accumulation of anxiety that I had never experienced in my body. And it would only happen as I was driving to work and walking in the doors. And I thought, okay, this is different than anything I've ever felt. I need to figure out what's going on. And so as I started to seek around and look for things, I found something called Human Design. And then that taught me, oh, actually I'm an energy type that works this way and I make decisions. This way, and alignment means this for me, because those were all buzzwords in the self-help world, but I actually didn't know what any of that meant. I was like, what is alignment? What is integrity? Why does decisions matter? That's the thing. I'm like, I can figure this one out. Human Design is, it's an energy system similar to astrology where it's based off of your birth time, your birth information. But it's a synthesized system of 5 core philosophies or patterns of life, ways of life. The Kabbalah Tree of Life, the I Ching, metaphysics, astrology, and there's a chakra system. And that had always fascinated me. And since I had done life practical and logical my whole life, I decided the practical and logical is killing me. I was drinking way too much. I was not sleeping well. I was calling myself healthy, but having a bunch of shitty food all the time. So I just really realized that, oh, you're not living a life at all in, in the way that you are designed to live it. And because I had nothing to lose, I literally felt I have nothing to lose. I'm a nurse, but I'm still waiting for my next paycheck. My family is—we don't even know what the F is going on there. My health is definitely my priority, so I decided to go all in on this chart, and I said I'm going to give it 90 days. I went in and I realized the biggest part about this was the way I made decisions and how I showed up, and if I was doing something that had me feeling burnt out. And I couldn't do something without energy draining my vitality, then that was not in alignment for me. That's when it hit me that, oh, that anxiety that I'm feeling going in, that's actually a precursor for a bigger health issue down the road. And I found this little chart on the internet for a reason. I'm not going to ignore it. And I'm just going to go all in 90 days. And within 3 weeks, Of making better decisions, I was like, whoa, I feel happier. I feel like I wanna get up and do this stuff. I could see myself living here and creating, you know what I mean? It had gotten to where I was like, if this is Earth, I don't wanna be here. It was one of those moments. So it was all of those combined for me in 2019, and I knew I had to let it go, and I let it go. And I had to grieve an entire identity, right? Who am I if I'm not a nurse? I got schooled for it. I paid lots of money for it. I'm certified in all the different ways for it. I'm good at it. I'm really good at it. And my body is telling me no more. And it was really scary.
What advice do you have though for women who are not in tune to their body yet? They're still stuck in that cycle of anxiety and Struggling and exhaustion.
What I would recommend is, first of all, you have to slow down to acknowledge what's really going on. The reason maybe I didn't feel that anxiety before was because I hadn't stopped to listen. I didn't know that was an option. I was in survival. I had been conditioned my whole life. I remember my mom, she said, you're gonna have to get a job. I was like 12 or 13. She was like, you're gonna have to get a job. Pretty soon, 'cause we can't pay for your shave gel. 'Cause I would use shave gel to shave my legs. And I was like, damn, I better hurry and go get a job. The fear inside of me of needing money to survive had just taken its toll. But I think the advice is slow down enough to actually witness yourself. And I think that's where we get afraid to do that. What I like to suggest is depending on your comfort level of actually listening to your body, Maybe you do need to start with your mind. Maybe you just need some expanded perspectives. Maybe you need to go into Personal Help 101 or the Personal Development 101 courses and really start to understand that there is more. You are more. You're capable of more. And you don't have to compromise and sacrifice anything to live more. And that would be if someone was afraid to go into that. And then I would say, go into it. And feel it and give yourself some grace and give yourself some compassion because you're gonna need it. You're gonna need it.
So did you just tap into your High Frequency Formula framework?
It was downloaded. Yeah. So 2019, I just lived this way. And then 2020 came and I realized why I had to leave nursing because there was no way I would've been able to keep up that facade and go along that That rabbit hole. I would never have been able to do that. That was a mess for a lot of the nurses. You know what I'm talking about.
Those who don't, I think we should talk about it because 2020 was that year that really changed a lot of industries for sure. And that was definitely the industry for sure where you could see the change in healthcare because AI wasn't fully there yet, but they were working on it. They were working on it for sure.
Yeah. And as I'm like, I gotta leave my job and I gotta reinvent myself, I was like, Why? Why is all this happening to me? It's hard not to. I'm a human. And then in 2020, when everything shut down and they were putting all these restrictions on healthcare workers, I knew. I was like, oh, I was being protected. I was just protected because then the healthcare system went really awry with the demands on nurses and stuff.
It sounds like this is the same high-frequency formula that you now teach other women.
Yes. Yes. After I did this, what I knew was my duty. I just wanna do this because I'm gonna be generous to people. I knew it was a duty. I have to teach other people. I have to tell them there's another way they can live. I felt a duty on my heart. I felt like if I could help one other woman who was like me, who felt like she had no option but maybe to leave, I have to share that there's another way. And as I started sharing it, it did develop the High Frequency Formula. Really, ultimately what that is, is a deconditioning method. Ultimately, it's just a method where we hold ourselves in compassion and we give ourselves permission to be angry, to be sad, to be whoever we are in that moment, and also to rise.
Tell me more about your podcast, your Wealthy and Aligned by Human Design podcast. Let's say if someone was like, okay, I really, I'm intrigued by Danielle and I really wanna just listen to what more she has to say. So if someone were to go to your podcast, why should they go to your podcast? And maybe what's the first episode they should go to?
So my podcast is Wealthy and Aligned by Human Design. We have over 300 episodes, which I like to call mini masterclasses because I'm one of the people, at least I like to see myself. As one of the people who I like to make sure this information is as available as possible, because when I was trying to learn this information, it was behind a lot of paid walls. There were lots of paid walls that would hold one nugget of information. And I just, I didn't have the money at the time and I really wanted the help. It wasn't as if I had the money, but I wasn't willing to get the help. I, I would've, and I did, I spent my very last dime on getting coaching and getting out of my own way. So I like to make sure a lot of this information is very practical, very applicable, very easy to start with. And so that's what I started with the podcast is just let me start teaching you what I did and how it works for me and how I'm seeing it work with my clients. Because my particular case is, or my particular heart goes to women who feel like they have to stay in a situation or a life circumstance. because they believe they are not more powerful than money. They believe money is more powerful than them. And the decision I made was nothing's more powerful than me. Not money, not other people, not the expectations of the world on me. Nothing is more powerful than me. I am the power. And so that's what I feel like is my duty to bring to women in the space who are like, Like you said earlier, they're pivoting and they're afraid because it is scary. Change is very scary, but there's a way we can do it where we get the support of energetics so we don't have to feel like we have to rescue ourselves or save ourselves. It actually connects you with your highest self. And that's the version of you that is calling. That's the version of you that's calling you. It's the higher self. Hey, maybe check this out. Go see what Danielle has to say or go check it out online and YouTube or Google it or AI it. Now everybody can AI everything. I would say the best place to start with my work would definitely be the podcast. I have a podcast series, It's Beginning, where I'm walking you through my deconditioning method, the paid method. So you can use any chart you find on the internet, wherever you are in your life, and you can start deconditioning the version of you That might be afraid to make the decision you need to make, right? Everyone knows, oh gosh, there might be this decision I need to make. Let's decondition that version of you and let's see how you're supported. So I would start with the series that's coming out in September, and I would also start with really getting clear on where in your life you are. And we call it the not-self, but it's really just misaligned. So I think you mentioned you were a Manifestor. So like, I don't know if you relate to this, but where are you angry? The not-self for the Manifestor is angry. The not-self for the Reflector is disappointed. The not-self for the MG is stuck and angry, frustration and angry. The not-self for the Projector is bitterness or resentment. And so we go our lives just feeling this way and we think it's Just the way it is. But actually, no, that's not— we're not meant to go around our lives feeling that way. So I would be really honest with myself and be like, where am I feeling this the most? For me, it was finances. I was afraid. I was scared, especially when 2020 came. I was like, then there goes that forever because I will never go back. I gotta get going on the thing that is really lighting me up and that I feel I have a responsibility to. And it really brought me a lot of joy. And I just dove in and went. I had trialed and errored a little bit of what is alignment and how is it actually supposed to feel.
Yeah. What makes this conversation different, and it's not just any other Human Design conversations out there, like people can literally ChatGPT Human Design at this point, but you have a unique perspective of being in tune to all of your emotions in order to be able to be in alignment. What is that emotion that is keeping you stuck? order to actually be the type of Human Design that you are. So that's, that's what I feel would make you unique when it comes to making sure that people listen to your podcast and check out analysis, your Wealth Code analysis, as well as your High Frequency Formula.
Yeah, I think it's so funny, this AI conversation. Every once in a while, someone will pop into my email and they'll be like, because I have a funnel with the Wealth Code charts, and they'll be like, but it's just the Human Design chart. I could put this into AI and find out everything. And I go, okay, go ahead, go ahead, go put this into AI and find out everything about yourself and then go try to live that. That is not going to work. Not for long. AI has nothing on the human DNA. AI has nothing on the human DNA. So go ahead if that's what you think will be useful. Maybe it will be for a little while. But I'm not at a place— and I've been doing this work for over 10 years— I'm not even at a place where I go to AI and ask it anything about how I need to go about my life. I'm not there yet.
I don't have the trust in ChatGPT yet. That's another key as well. How do you get to the point to trust yourself and just go all in and lock in that manner?
Yeah, that was the name of the game. Right? If you are pivoting, and like we were talking about, a lot of us are going to be seeing that the only way to go is entrepreneurship. We are going to be seeing a lot of things crumbling, and the things we thought were there to keep us safe and certain are not. And so who do we have to keep us safe and certain but ourselves? So it is a journey of self-discovery. It is a seeking journey, but that journey leads to sovereignty. And it can be a rough journey, or you can, you can lean in. And that's what I feel like Human Design does, is it gives you like anchors on how to navigate life so you can lean in and allow the support of what's actually going on underneath it. Human Design is the how you work. The Gene Keys to me are the why you do what you do. So there are 2 systems that I include in The Wealth Codes because I was noticing women, they would come to me like, I know I'm ready to change careers and I am looking for what's next and I don't know what to do. And everybody's telling me I should do this, or I have this great opportunity, but it doesn't feel like a great opportunity. And am I being stupid? And I would be like, let's look at the 5 parts of your chart, just the 5 main themes. of who you are energetically, and then let's see what your heart is asking from you. Because those are 2 different things. And what I realized was a lot of people wanted to just tell me what to do and I'll go do it. It's like, no, you have to tell you what to do and go do it. That's your journey. Human Design will help, coaching helps, all of this stuff helps. But ultimately, you are the one responsible for the journey that you're taking. And so what better way to make decisions like pivots to slow down, connect with your heart, and see what is my heart actually telling me it wants to do? And you might not like the answer at first. It might be like, you're leaving your corporate career tomorrow.
Right?
But doesn't mean you have to. It just means you have to be available to start to listen.
That's a perfect nugget right there. So where can people find you and find all of your resources?
You can go to my website, danielleayman.com. I think we're giving your audience a discount code where they can download their wealth code chart if they want it down in the show notes. I'm sure we have that for you. And I would recommend definitely taking that, getting that wealth code chart, and then going down and binging my podcast if that's something that's lighting you up and you wanna find out more. So the podcast again is Wealthy and Aligned by Human Design. But yeah, I think that's a great place to start for anyone.
And how do you spell your last name?
E-Y-M-A-N.
Perfect. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. I bet. And so there's one question, maybe 2 questions, that I like to ask people to wrap up the conversation. And one question is, what do you want your legacy to be? You've kind of touched on it a little bit, but what, what do you want your legacy to be?
I believe the journey that we're on is becoming sovereign. And to me, that means without limitation, And living a life of freedom and peace and feeling good doing that and being of service, right? That's what I feel like life is about. And so that's what I hope my legacy is. Now, who knows what my kids do with this work, but that's what I hope my legacy is.
Okay. And then the next question, I'm making it personal to this conversation, but where do you envision the next Chapter of your next higher self? What do you think is next for the next version of yourself?
Oh, this is great timing to ask me this because I am also pivoting. Yeah, I am also pivoting. I turned 49 and hit perimenopause, and that took me out of the game for a minute. And then I had my 50th birthday, I got things back on track, and now I'm 51, and I'm like, this is a whole new era of life. I'm 50 and I'm very fringe, and I love that about me. Like I said, if I'm going to be me, I'm going to be the most me. So this pivot for me is more into community, my own personal community. I want to be offline as much as possible and be meeting people in real life. I have a beautiful 20-acre property that I was able to acquire, and I just want to be bringing seekers together With the intention of we can all hold one another in community, because that's what this is all about. This is not about reaching somebody across the world. This is about how can we help first ourselves, then our families, and ultimately our communities, because that's where the impact is actually going to be felt. So that's where I'm pivoting. I've got great online courses and all the fun stuff that will teach you everything you need to know about it. And Now let's get in community and actually learn what it is to support one another as we enter into a time of complete uncertainty.
If no one got anything else from the conversation, you want them to remember one thing. What is one thing you want them to take away from this conversation?
It's never too late to pivot. You're always safe to pivot. You can slow down whenever you want. And even if you're afraid that when you slow down that you will lose your house, your car, your everything. Start taking inventory on how supported you actually are, and that will help you just learn to slow down so that when you do pivot, it's with intention.
Beautiful. Beautifully said. Thank you, Dania, for being a guest on the See Life Different podcast.
Thank you so much.
