INITIATION is a 3-month coaching and mentorship container to support you through transition

you will also learn skills to support your design and your innate wisdom in real time.
>What’s included and how to book<
“This can’t be all there is to life…”
“Why do I feel so stuck?”
“I’m just not meant for this
kind of world!”
Yes, my friend.
I understand. I know how you feel.
And also,
the thing is,
you are here.The harmony that you are seeking—the beauty that each one of us longs to find—can be illuminated by the meaning we embody through our creative expression.
When we are embodied, our action comes from an indomitable place.
When we are authentically expressing our uniqueness,
we find that the road of harmony rises to meet each step we take.
Initiation
/iˌniSHēˈāSH(ə)n/
n. The act of beginning something. A rite of passage.
The passing of time becomes a series of repetitive events or cyclical patterns that seemingly lead you right back to the same old familiar spots.
Subtle —or not so subtle— emotional, physical and psychological conditioning can give greater power to the voice of the inner critic and the collective ego; the reasoning, comparative mind becomes louder than your sensitive and intuitive body wisdom.
We live in a culture that demands immediacy and values productivity over progress.
We have obscured our relationship to the natural world and its rhythms.
Our nervous systems are overburdened resulting in chronic pain, dysfunction, and discord.
But there’s a voice inside of you that has been whispering, urging,
perhaps even screaming to be heard.
It wants you to know that your incarnation into this life has purpose,
that your uniqueness is an integral part of the Cosmic puzzle.
This is the voice of your authentic self.
It may be shy at first, but creating space for this voice through deconditioning and somatic engagement will encourage its expression.
And a liberated authentic self begets harmony with the world around it.
As human beings, we need to ascribe meaning to things (even if it is of meaninglessness) to bring a sense of order and understanding to our experience and the world around us. Meanings are a choice, and the meanings we choose to animate with belief become the pillars of our expression.
When you’ve lost your way, life can feel hollow.
You’ve always known the way.
Now, how does it feel to trust yourself?
Many of us have been ignoring the call from within to embrace our uniqueness, to embody our elemental purpose in this lifetime. No matter how hard we try to do what we are taught is good, and right, and destined to bring success;
we have felt the gnawing.
I am meant for something different. This cannot be it.
Consider this your calling, your invitation...
You have coped for long enough.
You’ve made the excuses and beaten around the bush.
You are here at the threshold.
The next step is the hardest and it is wholly up to you, but if I can promise anything, it is that you will not be alone.
INITIATION goes beyond a traditional Human Design reading to guide you into an authentic expression of yourself in harmony and success with the world around you.
Healing and growth are not linear, why would we approach them so?
Session One begins with a check-in and a guided journey into your own wild landscape—wherever you’re at, that’s where we begin.
Then with information from your Human Design chart, we dive into the thrilling and unique story of you. There is no informational gatekeeping; this is a thorough reading of your chart covering strategy, authority, gifts and challenges—definition, gates, profile, incarnation cross, variables—plus actionable steps for moving forward. Whether you’ve had a reading before or not, you will gain a profound understanding of your design and how it serves you right now.
We introduce embodiment techniques to connect with Strategy and Authority and create an actionable plan for the container.
Over the subsequent 3 months, we meet bi-weekly for 75-minute Counsel + Embodiment sessions to work with your design in real time and engage with your process of transformation. We excavate your fears and motivators, identify your not-self behavior, and isolate any current conditioning in order to get to the root of your inner truth. In the off-weeks you will receive a “Trail Marker,” an accountability email and resource with notes about your design, journaling prompts and/or somatic exercises pulled from our in-person sessions to deepen your understanding of Human Design, furthering the exploration of your Self.
You will not merely grasp the concept of practicing your design, you will have the tangible experience of it.
You will also receive a custom digital Keynote + Workbook of your individual design full of information and actionable steps.
As a natural guide,
I understand the path because I have also walked it. I am here to stimulate new perspectives and help you to reclaim yourself; to initiate you into a way of being where you are supported, honored, and flourishing. And I’m honored to support your process with a myriad of tools for embodying your design. Furthermore, as a big proponent of self-accountability, I curate the information from your reading into a custom digital workbook, including resources for your own self-study and the actionable steps to begin living your design.
“It was a great honor to sit virtually with Alexandra for my INITIATION session. Not only was the session personalized and insightful—the guided meditation, her tone, and true warmth of empathy were so physically present that I forgot at one stage that we were across the country from one another. I felt as if her healing energy was literally in the room with me.
The keynote document that she offers is gorgeous in its specificities and lays out defined methods for embodying your design. It’s clear that coaching human design and connecting her clients to themselves is not only a passion but a rare gift specific to her own obviously embodied design.”

“For most of my life I’ve had trouble engaging in self care instead of sabotage and I’ve found changing certain habits without support or guidance to be nearly impossible. Subsequently, I’ve spent a lot of time with therapists, self-help books and the like but I’d never had results as effective as I’ve had from sessions with Alexandra. The first time I spoke with her I felt trust, fragile and invaluable as it is, and it has only grown since the surprisingly accurate human design keynote and life coaching sessions we’ve had. My confidence, career paths and general faith in humanity have all improved by leaps from Alexandra sharing her intuition, healing nature, and knack to point out truth right when I need to hear it. I couldn’t recommend Honored Body more highly. ”

What is Human Design?
You are more than just where you’re from…
The Human Design System is a framework by which we can unlock areas of deep conditioning to express ourselves truthfully and in harmony with the greater community of our world. By implementing this knowledge into your self-work, re-parenting process and your everyday, you begin to live closer to your design, your original truth. A comprehensive reading will feel more like being handed a user manual than a prognostication. It does not require one to believe in anything but is most effective in practice. When we align with what is most truthful for our soul and our body, we become healthier, encounter less resistance, and live with purpose.
