What if the real way entrepreneurs sabotage their businesses isn’t when things aren’t working — but when they finally are?

In this episode of Unjaded, Vickie Dickson breaks down a pattern she sees over and over again in online business: abandoning the very foundations that create stability once momentum starts to build.

As sales become steadier and systems begin to work, many entrepreneurs get restless, bored, or convinced something must be wrong because it feels “too easy.” The result? They burn it down, rewrite offers, rebuild funnels, and start from scratch — again.

Vickie calls this out for what it really is: not failure, not laziness, not lack of alignment — but nervous system protection mixed with unrealistic expectations about ease, excitement, and sustainability in online business.

This episode is a grounded, honest conversation about building the skeleton of your business — the unsexy systems that keep working even when motivation dips, creativity wanes, or your emotional wave is low.

If you’re in the in-between phase — where things are working but not explosively yet — this episode will help you stay the course instead of sabotaging what you’ve worked so hard to build.

1. Why entrepreneurs often sabotage momentum after success starts
2. What Vickie means by the “skeleton” or “spine” of a sustainable business
3. The difference between ease and easy when it comes to making money online
4. Why low-ticket offers, email sequences, and follow-up matter more than launches
5. How Manifesting Generators often chase novelty and burn down working systems
6. Why boredom, restlessness, or itchiness can be signs your business is stabilizing
7. The danger of rebuilding offers instead of driving traffic to what already works
8. How consistency, repetition, and time actually create sustainable income
9. Why “passive income” is a misleading idea — and what steady income really requires
10. How to keep growing your business without breaking your life

When your business starts to feel steady instead of exciting, that doesn’t mean something is wrong — it means something is finally working. Sustainable businesses aren’t built on adrenaline. They’re built on foundations that keep running even when the novelty wears off.

Don’t burn down the structure that’s holding you just because you’re bored.

If you’re a Manifesting Generator or you love a Manifesting Generator, this episode is essential listening.

In this episode of Unjaded, Vickie Dickson breaks down what sacral response actually feels like in the body — and why so many Generator types struggle, even when they understand Human Design intellectually.

This is a grounded, real-life conversation with 5 other MG's about:

1. why sacral response gets conditioned out early
2. how overthinking blocks Manifesting Generator alignment
3. how to tone your sacral so your decisions come from your body, not your head
4. what responding means as your Human Design Strategy
5. should Manifesting Generators inform?
6. do Manifesting Generators need a niche?
7. and so much more....

Vickie also shares how sacral response works alongside Emotional Authority, busts common Human Design myths, and explains why Generator types don’t need to “look” for things to respond to — response comes when you’re paying attention.

1. What sacral response really is (and what it isn’t)
2. How to recognize your sacral yes vs no
3. Why yes/no questions are critical for Generator types
4. How Manifesting Generators sabotage their own magnetism
5. Emotional Authority and sacral response in real life
6. Why trusting response leads to satisfaction — not burnout

This episode is especially powerful if you:

1. feel stuck or frustrated as a Manifesting Generator
2. struggle with decision-making
3. overcommit and burn out
4. are bored by your life and/or career
5. know your Human Design but don’t feel embodied in it

This episode of Unjaded is a must-listen for Generators and Manifesting Generators who know their Human Design—but still don’t actually know how to use their sacral.

Vickie Dickson breaks down, in real-world language, what sacral response actually feels like in the body, why it’s been conditioned out of most people, and how to retrain yourself to trust it again. She busts common myths, explains why overthinking kills magnetism, and walks through simple, practical ways to “tone” your sacral so it can do what it’s designed to do: guide you toward the right work, decisions, opportunities, and people.

This isn’t theory. This is lived experience—especially for emotional authority Generators who’ve been taught to second-guess their gut. If you’ve ever felt paralyzed by small decisions, overridden your instincts, or talked yourself out of inspired action, this episode will change how you move through life and business.

1. What Sacral response actually feels like in the body
2. Why most Generators and Manifesting Generators don’t trust their sacral
3. How sacral sounds (uh-huh / uh-uh) get conditioned out of us early in life
4. Why multiple-choice questions shut down your sacral intelligence
5. How to use yes/no questions to retrain your sacral response
6. The difference between mental decision-making and embodied response
7. How emotional authority interacts with sacral response
8. Why excitement isn’t the point—energy is
9. How overthinking kills magnetism, creativity, and aligned momentum
10. What it means to truly live “in response” without forcing or chasing

Your sacral isn’t here to be analyzed. It’s here to be trusted.

When Generators and Manifesting Generators stop overriding their gut, stop waiting for permission, and stop talking themselves out of response, life gets easier. Opportunities arrive. Energy returns. Decisions clarify. Your sacral is a motor—and when you let it lead, it magnetizes exactly what’s meant for you.

What if the reason you feel off in your business isn’t your strategy — but your environment?

In this episode of Unjaded, Vickie Dickson sits down with Laurel Colins, a Feng Shui practitioner and Human Design Reflector, to explore how your physical space directly impacts your energy, focus, and ability to move forward in business.

As we step into 2026, this conversation reframes productivity, success, and abundance through the lens of Human Design environments, feng shui, and working with your energy instead of against it.

This episode is especially powerful if you’re feeling overstimulated, scattered, stagnant or blocked in your work and can't pinpoint why that is.

1. Why your workspace energy matters more than ever in 2026
2. How Human Design environments influence focus, creativity, and decision-making
3. What it actually means to work “in flow” (and why it’s harder than it sounds)
4. Laurel’s experience as a Reflector and Quad Right in business
5. The difference between strategic effort and receptive awareness
6. How feng shui supports clarity, safety, and sustainable momentum
7. Why unfinished projects, broken items, and clutter drain your energy
8. How to feng shui your desk, office, and front door for abundance
9. The Bagua map, explained simply and practically
10. Using intention, placement, and symbolism instead of rigid rules
11. Why some people need structure — and others need creative clutter
12. Preparing your space for the 2026 numerology 1 Year and Fire Horse energy
13. Simple shifts you can make without redecorating your entire life

This conversation bridges two powerful systems:

1. Human Design reveals how your energy works
2. Feng Shui supports where that energy functions best and how to help it flow.

Laurel explains how understanding your environment type — Markets, Caves, Shores, Mountains, Valleys, or Kitchens — can radically change how you experience work, creativity, and productivity.

Instead of forcing yourself into someone else’s version of success, this episode invites you to build a space that actually supports your design.

1. Clear unfinished tasks before setting new intentions

2025 felt like a year and a half. Systems are shifting, people are edgy, and a lot of entrepreneurs are quietly asking, “Am I safe? Is my business safe? What the hell is happening?”

In this episode of Unjaded, Vickie Dickson brings you back to centre using two tools that create context when the world feels chaotic: Numerology and Human Design. She breaks down the collective 9 Year of 2025 (endings, completion, release) and what it means to enter a collective 1 Year in 2026 (new beginnings, independence, initiation). She also ties this transition into what many in Human Design call the 2027 mutation, explaining how the “background frequency” is already shifting and why this can feel like the rug is being pulled out from under old structures.

You’ll learn how to calculate your personal year number, how to use the energy of your cycle instead of fighting it, and how to anchor into your Type strategy so you can move through 2026 with more intention, less fear, and a stronger sense of who you are.

Vickie also shares crystal support for each numerology year, plus a direct, no-fluff reminder: you don’t need to panic. You need context, clarity, and a way to move.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

1. Why 2025 (collective Year 9) stirred so much ending, shedding, and emotional processing
2. What the collective Year 1 (2026) supports: new beginnings, independence, and fresh starts
3. How the 2027 mutation connects to the feeling of systems crumbling and identity shifting
4. How to calculate your personal year number for 2026 (simple formula included)
5. What each personal year cycle means (1–9), and how to use it instead of resisting it
6. Crystal support for each year cycle (so you can anchor the energy physically)
7. How to move through 2026 using your Human Design Type and Strategy

Key Takeaway:

When you understand the collective energy, your personal year, and your Human Design strategy, you stop reacting to fear and start moving with intention. 2026 isn’t asking you to hustle harder. It’s asking you to start the right things and lead from who you actually are.

The online space is shifting fast — and if you create content for a living, you can feel it.

In this episode of Unjaded, Vickie Dickson breaks down how content creators and online entrepreneurs need to adapt in 2026 as algorithms evolve, AI search expands, and audience behavior changes. This is not an episode about chasing trends or gaming platforms. It’s about understanding what’s actually being rewarded now — and how to work with it instead of burning yourself out.

Vickie unpacks the rise of storytelling, answer-based content, personality-driven brands, long-form platforms, and the return to community and in-person connection. She also explains how Human Design offers a clear shortcut for creating content that feels natural, sustainable, and deeply human in an increasingly automated world.

If you’ve been feeling like the old content rules no longer apply — you’re right. This episode will help you recalibrate.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

1. Why storytelling matters more than ever in an AI-saturated online space
2. How content-based algorithms and AI search systems now scan and rank your content
3. What “answer-based content” really means and how to use it
4. Why vague spiritual language no longer converts — and what to say instead
5. How to optimize your content for search intent without losing your voice
6. The role personality plays in modern personal brands (and why hiding isn’t working)
7. How your Human Design Profile shapes the way you should create content
8. Why UGC and everyday authenticity are outperforming polished brand content
9. The growing return to community, in-person offerings, and analog experiences
10. Why long-form content is winning again — and how it builds trust and demand
11. How to blend online visibility with offline connection in a changing market

Key Takeaway:

The future of content isn’t louder, faster, or more automated — it’s clearer, more human, and more intentional. Creators who understand search intent, lean into storytelling, and show up as real people will be the ones who thrive in 2026 and beyond.

If you’re constantly eyeing the next certification, tool, platform, or healing modality instead of actually making money and serving clients, this episode is your loving but firm wake-up call.

In this episode of Unjaded, Vickie Dickson calls out the shiny-object cycle that keeps entrepreneurs busy, overwhelmed, and stuck — and walks you through what actually matters if you want a sustainable business in 2026 and beyond.

This isn’t about doing more. It’s about building the skeleton of your business: the foundational systems that hold your offers, your clients, and your income — so you can stop spinning and start leading.

Vickie breaks down the most common distractions entrepreneurs use to delay visibility and responsibility, and contrasts them with the few core elements every business actually needs to function, grow, and make money consistently.

If you’ve been “preparing” for years but not seeing the results you want, this episode will bring clarity — and probably some relief.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

1. Why certifications, modalities, and frameworks often become permission slips to avoid leadership
2. How rebranding, renaming, and platform hopping quietly stall your business growth
3. The difference between being busy and building something that lasts
4. Why constantly creating new offers is often a sign your foundation is missing
5. What actually belongs in the “skeleton” of a sustainable online business
6. Why one clear offer matters more than a complicated offer suite
7. How email, payment systems, and calendars create ease for you and your clients
8. Why making regular offers is non-negotiable if you want consistent income
9. How choosing one primary platform can simplify your marketing and increase sales
10. A real example of how a simple, aligned offer brought in revenue without a launch

Key Takeaway:

You don’t need another certification, platform, or healing breakthrough. You need a solid foundation. When your business has a clear offer, simple systems, and a place for people to find and pay you, everything else becomes optional — not urgent.

On paper, Vickie and her business partner Lisa look almost identical in Human Design: they are both 2/4 Manifesting Generators. Same Type. Same Profile. Same label.

But in real life, they move through business very differently.

In this episode of Unjaded, Vickie walks you through a side by side chart comparison to show you just how nuanced Human Design really is. She breaks down the differences in their channels, Centres, definition, and energy so you can stop reducing yourself to “just” your Type and Profile and start understanding how your specific design actually wants to operate.

You will hear how things like a defined Root vs undefined Root, split definition vs single definition, and an undefined G Centre vs a heavily defined G Centre change the way two “identical” 2/4 Manifesting Generators experience pressure, direction, identity, pace, and partnership in business.

If you have ever wondered why you do not resonate with generic Human Design Type descriptions, this episode will feel like a deep exhale.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why “I’m a 2/4 Manifesting Generator” is just the beginning of your Human Design story
• How the 2/4 profile actually shows up in real life through community, hermitting, and long term relationships
• What happens when two big Manifesting Generator auras share a business and a physical space
• How the 34–57 channel (powerful intuitive response) operates differently than the 34–20 channel of charisma
• The impact of defined vs undefined Root Centres on pressure, urgency, and getting things done
• How split definition vs single definition changes the way you process, decide, and move in business
• Why an undefined G Centre questions identity and direction while a defined G Centre quietly holds the line
• How dormant gates get “lit up” in relationship and what that means for your patterns in intimacy, boundaries, and conflict
• Practical ways to use Human Design in partnership so you stop expecting other people to work exactly like you

Key Takeaway:

Two people can share the same Type and Profile and still be wired completely differently. The power of Human Design is in the nuances, not the label. When you understand your actual mechanics, you stop making yourself wrong and start building your business in a way that honours how your energy is really built to work.
