Back to EpisodesBecoming Self-Led & Creating Your Satisfied Life with Heather Whitaker: Human Design Meets Parts Work
Description
Welcome Heather Whitaker, founder of the Self Inventory Lab, to the pod to explore how Human Design and Internal Family Systems (IFS) Parts Work! This is already one of our favorite listens to date. We discuss how understanding our design and inner parts can help us move beyond limiting beliefs and create a life that truly feels like our own.
Heather shares her journey from working as a To Be Magnetic coach to developing a unique approach that merges Human Design and IFS Parts Work. We also dive into motherhood, career pivots and redefining success in a way that feels soulful and spacious.
We talk about what it truly means to become self-led, not just intellectually but somatically. We explore the protective parts that show up when we try to follow our strategy and authority, how to name them and dialogue with them, and how her new method helps you reorient to your true self in a way that’s deeply practical and wildly transformative.
In this episode, we explore:
- Heather’s transition from TBM coach to mother to founder.
- Redefining satisfaction, success, and soulful success on your own terms.
- Heather’s Approach to Human Design & IFS – why combining these systems creates deeper self-awareness.
- How to know when you’re self-led (and when you’re not).
- Naming your “firefighters” and “managers” to move through fear.
- Understanding & Naming Your Parts – working with your inner voices instead of against them.
- Redefining Success – moving beyond money and external validation.
- Personalising Success – creating space for alignment, intuition, and fulfillment.
- Navigating Motherhood & Personal Growth – balancing evolving identities with self-trust.
