You Were Taught To Please, Not To Choose: How Human Design Brings You Back To Your Truth
The Performance That Trained You To Forget Yourself
Somewhere along the way, you learned that being chosen mattered more than being whole.
And from there, the performance began.
You started fixing problems that were never yours to fix.
You started playing the role of the good girl.
You got the degrees.
You got married.
You had the children.
And somewhere under all of that, you lost yourself.
How Authority Override Creates Burnout And Resentment
Here is what they did not tell you.
Every time you override your Human Design Authority, your body’s intuition, you betray yourself.
And the more you disconnect from your truth, the more exhausted, resentful, and lost you feel.
Authority override is one of the biggest drivers of burnout and resentment in women who look like they have it all together.
Every Yes That Should Have Been A No
Every time you say yes when your body says no.
Every time you make a decision from fear instead of clarity.
Every time you move faster than your Authority can speak.
You teach yourself not to listen.
And your body keeps the score.
Why You Feel Like You Are Doing Everything Right But Still Falling Apart
This is why you feel exhausted even when you should be able to handle it.
Why you feel resentful even when you are doing all the right things.
Why you feel like you do not even know who you are anymore.
Because when your nervous system is wired to perform for approval, you lose connection with the truth that was always inside you.
How Human Design Explains The Disconnect
Your Authority is your body’s knowing.
It is the way your energy is designed to guide you.
And when you override it, the disconnect builds.
For Splenic Authority, it is the quiet instinct that gets dismissed.
For Emotional Authority, it is the clarity that never comes when you rush.
For Sacral Authority, it is the gut knowing you ignore because it does not fit the plan.
For Ego Authority, it is the will that gets silenced in favor of what others expect.
For Self Projected Authority, it is the truth that gets swallowed instead of spoken.
For Mental Projected Authority, it is the wisdom of your environment that gets ignored.
Every override is a rupture.
And those ruptures add up.
Why Mindset Alone Cannot Bring You Back
Here is the truth.
You cannot think your way back to yourself.
No amount of mindset work will override a body that has been conditioned to betray its own knowing.
The path back is through your body.
The Path Back To Your Truth Starts Here
Through honoring your Authority.
Through slowing down long enough to hear what your body has been trying to tell you.
Through choosing your wholeness over other people’s approval.
Because wholeness is not built through performance.
It is built through presence.
And when you start moving from your Authority, everything changes.
You stop chasing approval.
You stop leaking energy.
You stop living someone else’s version of success.
You start living yours.
Why This Work Matters Now For Your Body And Your Life
I see it every day.
Women who have done all the right things.
And their bodies are still breaking down.
Their spirits are still depleted.
Because they were never taught to choose themselves.
What have you given up when you put others in front of you? Let me know on my Tik Tok or Substack @drnaieema.
And this is the work we are doing inside The House of TAH.
Not just learning your Authority. Living it.
Your Next Step
And that is exactly where we are going in this week’s podcast.
I am breaking down all of the Authorities.
So if this is hitting, come listen.
Because the body remembers. And the body heals when you honor it.
The House of TAH is open.
And this is where we walk it forward.
