We're thrilled to share this episode that we recorded in front of a live audience in Santa Fe, NM for the High Desert Human Design conference in 2024. Thank you to Jonah Dempcy for bringing so many folks together to learn from one another!

Carola Eastwood is a 6/2 Emotional Generator and Chetan Parkyn is a 2/4 Emotional Projector - they're some of Ra's original students yet have made Human Design their own and their differentiation is reflected through their teachings. In this convo, we chat about the beginnings of HD, their relationship, their designs and how they run their business, and much more. Enjoy!

It might seem like everything's on fire right now (it's fire szn so maybe it is!) but we're back after a brief Summer hiatus -- catch up with us as we chat about the 17/18 Nodal Shift, current events in the US, our Neptune placements and what implications Neptune carries, German New Medicine and how it's helped us, and more!
