What's it actually like to receive a live Human Design reading—one that lands in your body, not just your mind? In this special episode, we do our first live reading on the show with Stacey Davis, exploring emotional Manifestor leadership, clean initiation, and how to create impact without over-giving, over-holding, or burning out.

Stacey Davis is an executive transformation mentor, ceremonista, podcaster, and lead steward of Solunara. She holds sacred containers for leaders and communities, guiding sovereignty, nervous system regulation, and sustainable and regenerative impact.

• How a live Human Design reading actually works (and what you walk away with)

• Why “clean initiation” matters for Manifestors (and what it changes in leadership)

• How to lead as an Emotional Manifestor without burning out

• Why the Manifestor aura can feel “repelling” (and how to work with it instead of against it)

• How the “Manifestor wound” gets created in childhood (and why it often turns into “I have to do it alone”)

• How to receive real support before you hit crisis mode

• Why anger is a compass for Manifestors (not a problem to suppress)

• Why undefined/open centers can drive overwork and proving

• Why your body gives loud signals (illness, shutdown, “burn it down”) when capacity is exceeded

• How to create sustainable capacity (sessions per day/month, recovery time, creative time)

• Why the full moon is a powerful “release + equilibrium” checkpoint

This week was a reminder that markets can experience meaningful movement even when the underlying fundamentals haven't changed. We saw volatility driven by rotation, rebalancing, and shifting investor expectations — not panic, and not systemic risk.

In this episode of Investment Friday, Hannah Chapman, CFP®, is joined by Brad Haines, CFA®, FRM®, CIO of Juncture Wealth Strategies, to break down what's actually happening beneath the headlines.

Together, they explore why markets are becoming more selective, how to interpret recent layoff announcements, what a new Fed chair nomination could mean for monetary policy, and why understanding tax-efficient strategies like Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) matters more than ever.

Learn more about:

• What's driving market volatility right now — and what isn't

• Sector rotation, profit-taking, and why differentiation matters

• AI, tech, and how markets are starting to separate winners from the theme

• Layoff headlines vs. labor market reality

• The Fed chair nomination and why Federal Reserve independence matters

• Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs): how to give more and pay less in taxes

• Using required minimum distributions strategically

• Why context matters more than headlines for long-term investors

In this episode, Hannah and Lauren dive into the 2/4 profile (Hermit/Opportunist). Why the 2-line hermit needs solitude, why the 4-line opportunist's best opportunities come through your network, and how that inner tension can show up in business and relationships.

Learn more about:

• Why parts of your design can feel “crunchy” at first

• The difference between rejection vs. resonance

• The 7-year deconditioning process

• Gene Keys Shadow as an octave of the Gift

• The 2/4 profile (Hermit/Opportunist) + how it plays out in life

• Natural talents you can't always see (2-line gifts)

• Why 4-line opportunities come through your people

• Projector invitations: not passive, just aligned

• Generator myths: response, desire, and sacral “YES” energy

• Why you don't have to force sales strategies that fight your design
