Ditch the Duality, Stop it with the Boxes and Repeat after me: "Both-And" 13:14

12 weeks ago13:14

Do you ever feel stuck choosing between a practical how-to and a wild, free, intuitive woo-whoo? What if you could have both? In this episode of Inspired by Design I share a bit about navigate life as an elder millennial—growing up without the Internet and coming of age with it—and how that unique perspective taught me to see the full spectrum of possibilities. I reveal how even my Human Design helps me balance the practical and the intuitive, even when faced with the black-and-white choices that can leave you overwhelmed. In this episode, you’ll hear about: The Both-And Mindset: Why limiting yourself to just two options (the how-to or the woo-whoo) stifles creativity, and how embracing a spectrum of choices can unlock hidden possibilities. Real-Life Examples: Pop culture nuggets—from Billy Madison’s quirky shampoo/conditioner showdown to Joey’s unforgettable jam moment on Friends —illustrate how expanding your perspective leads to innovative solutions. Practical Brainstorming Tools: I share my favorite “popcorn ideas” exercise, a group brainstorming technique that helps you generate a big list of options, even when you think you only have two. A Human Design Tip: Learn how your unique design can reveal natural decision-making strengths, so you stop second-guessing and start moving confidently forward. A Call to Action: I invite you to experiment with these ideas and share your own examples of when you’ve chosen “both” over either/or thinking. Whether you’re a high-achieving professional feeling boxed in by binary choices or simply looking for a fresh perspective, this episode is packed with insights to help you transform overwhelm into creative energy.
