Your Journey with Strategy & Authority
Ra had asked me to write a book about my experiment. I responded and that is how "A Revolution of One" came to be. In the introduction I wrote: "As you read, please remember, this is simply my story of what I passed through in the experiment of living my strategy and honoring my inner authority. It is not the story. There is no the story for a Generator or for anyone else. We are each unique and have our own unfolding process to live. And we each have a story to tell. This is mine."
I have received emails that touched me deeply over the years from people I have connected with through my Human Design work. Just this past week, I received three more and I had the idea that it would be wonderful to share these stories. I asked each person if it was OK for me to share them and if it was ok to include their name, email, or other contact information. I am hoping to add to these stories from people who are long in the experiment to people beginning this "Simple but Not Easy" journey.

Dear Mary Ann, How amazing Human Design is when your back is really up against the wall. In this specific situation, to want so very deeply to get on a plane and be with you and Hunt and other 6/2s in Ibiza - really with ALL my heart - and be able to learn and grow from the experience, but knowing at my core that the ultimate gesture in grasping what HD has to offer is to miss the very thing my mind wants so badly because my authority has lead me to that conclusion. In a way, missing the Ibiza experience is the gift. I don't know if I've been able to share with you thus far, but the most profound experience of the cancer thus far has been the realization that during this whole journey, my mind has not built any narrative of anxiety around the implications of what the cancer means. Friends have said multiple times how they appreciate my "positive thinking" around this. It was then that I realized, I'm not doing any positive thinking. There's just no mental fear. It simply doesn't exist. The cancer has highlighted just how much my mind has given up the ghost of thinking it has any control over my life, and it's all because of practicing my Strategy. The Mechanics work. And getting cancer showed me just how powerful the Mechanics are. Life: a mystery wrapped inside an enigma solved by simply listening to a grunt. haha. how's that for a joke, Mr. Hu? love you right back. xoxoxDavid

Hola dear Mary Ann, I like to share something with you. Do you wanna read? It seems like your workshop prepared me perfectly for the now. It is like everything we talked and shared about is now coming alive, the living experiment. It’s hard to describe for me how deep the knowledge sunk deep into my cells. Yesterday my flights were cancelled back to Germany. There was a hostage situation airport in Hamburg. And it was not possible to get a flight back the next days to Germany. So I have unexpected 5 days more in Ibiza. And I watched my mind and my body. I laughed out loud when I got the message from Eurowings at a bar where I had a coffee in a state of waiting anyway. This life is incredible. One person at the airport in Hamburg affects the pathways of thousands of people. We are not in charge. Not in control. No choice. I am grateful that Human Design found me. That our pathways crossed. That the love yourself workshop brought me deeper into myself, to surrender. That everything what happened in my life leads to this. All we have is now. All the stories came up from my friends and family: „you are so lucky“. Or „what is misfortune“. And I don’t really know. It just feels right. Because it is what it is. And now I am sitting under the Ibizia sun, watching people walking by and having a good Spanish coffee without plans. Nothing to do. I am curious what will unfold now.And then I got sick. I mean not just a little cold. A good one. With fever. Nowhere to go. Nothing to do. No road trips. Just my hotel room and me. Four days just lying in bed. Being. And it felt so uncomfortable. Unfair. Oh my mind got me crazy. “What a misfortune! You got sick on Ibiza? Come on!” To surrender and be in the now when you get sick was next level.
You wrote to me: “The transformation is in the cells – it’s physical too.” I sticked to that one. It felt right. During and after your workshop I felt like my cells were going through a transformation, something profound was going on in my body.
Obviously my body needed rest, the fever, the headache and the body pain. Because that was what it was. The body needed no swimming, socializing, road tripping, lazing in the sun kind of vibe. Hard for the mind to get that.
Sacral questions from my fellow Human Design friends helped me out and brought me with more ease and acceptance through the days. My sacral was ok with the fever. My sacral said “Ahuu” to that experience. My sacral responded that there’s is nothing to do and that I can trust the process.
I am so grateful that I found this little HD Community full of sweet, incredible and amazing people. This is such a gift!
Sending you love 💛 Maya

Dear Mary Ann, I took so much inspiration with me, it felt like a deep nourishment after all those years of challenge. I am so deeply grateful that my geometry led to Human Design shortly after Janne’s (my son) birth 17 years ago. I am RRRR. I am not sure if I would still be here without having met Human Design. Remembering the young woman I was with all of that intensity - I was searching so desperately for orientation in a strategic world, full of anxiety about the emotional instability, full of depressive moods…
It is a very very slow process for me, I have the feeling maybe through my intense emotional definition of all three different waves and my 4xright it is just a slow motion process. It feels like peeling an onion step by step by step. Like layers of habits that fall away and suddenly I discover a new moment where I still do not wait or I still am too initiative. Something shifted again inside of me after my first Immersion with you in 2018 and looking back I have the feeling that something inside of me just knew that I had to prepare myself for something to REALLY LIVE THIS. And so grateful that I felt in tune with my frequency the moment that Jannes got his diagnosis (Leukemia) back in October 2020. It was an experience of deep pain and a lot of fearful moments but still all that looong time till his recovery I watched myself just BEing at his side in a natural flow. One of the deepest experiences I made in that time was to feel the difference between pain and suffering- the suffering got only hold of me the moments I would listen to my mind. And the pain was deep but it was clear that i- we could deal with it, embrace it, be with it. And now just so grateful that he is still here with us. And grateful for the love yourself workshop- I have the feeling that what I drank this time very deeply is to live my strategy more conscious in being a mother with all the experiences I made. Although I felt aligned in my body and with my inner authority, which gave me stability and strength- the intensity over a long period of time of the experience to maybe loosing him, caught my mind back into wanting to do anything I can to ‘control’ that he is good- so I offered my help and offered my questions to him too much the last years. And now in the last weeks I really practice letting go of wanting to do something to hold him safe. To just be there in my flow, wait, watch and trust. It is so relaxing. Sending you my Love and gratitude,Julia
