Bee Embodied; The Journey Into Human Design
I met Bethany a few years ago in the online realm. She was working as an English teacher in Vietnam and we both shared a passion for travel, holistic healing and spirituality.
When we finally decided to meet in person, I knew there was something special about this human. We went on endless adventures around the U.K. together and I was lucky enough to capture her portraits for her personal brand; Bee Embodied. Unfortunately for me (but fortunately for her) Bethany now lives on the beautiful island of Bali and has shifted from English teacher to a holistically lead transformational coach. She has taken some pretty gnarly life experiences and shaped them into beautiful offerings that she now shares with her ever growing online community - so it only makes sense to ask her a few questions about what she’s up to, right?
Describe to me what you do for a living.
I’m Bethany, a Human Design & Transformation coach - I work in the realm of empowerment, allowing you to come home to and remember how it feels to live a life fully embodied by you. I merge Human Design & Subconscious reprogramming to make the mind the ally and the body the leader, so that you can permanently let go of the external conditioning that has kept you from the potential you know you’re here for.
What led you to pursue this passion?
Honestly, feeling so lost in my mind. Feeling like I was looping in the same stories and always feeling like a victim of my own creation. When I finally used the above tools and took responsibility, my whole life changed as a byproduct.
What is your favourite thing about what you do for work?
Seeing how much this work can change other’s lives as it did mine. To know I have helped expand our world in some way and help others find their truth is such a gift.
Tell me a bit more about what Human Design is.
Human design is the science of differentiation. Consider it your operating manual for how to understand, use, and optimise your own unique energy. When you learn to live in alignment with your Human Design, the rest falls effortlessly into place. It's basically a snapshot of your energy which allows us to logically understand how we uniquely work and implement that in our lives.
How can we use Human Design in our everyday lives?
It can be used in the way we show up in every area. In connection; knowing the design of friends, partners and how to communicate with them most effectively. Also in business; knowing how to make clear decisions and lead from the body rather than the mind.
Tell me about a time where Human Design has brought you out of a heavy space and into somewhere lighter.
When I had a very close encounter with death in a motorbike accident. I broke my jaw in 3 places and I was giving away all of my power to the doctors when my body (now I know to be a specific area of my design) was communicating to me what had to be done. When I took back my power, I healed an infection and everything started to shift.
What advice would you give to someone who has recently discovered Human Design and wants to begin experimenting with it?
Start with the foundations: Type, Strategy & Authority. These will show you how your energy is designed to flow, how to attract the right experiences and how to make decisions from the body. Another important factor is application.. this information needs to be lived, it's an experiment.
If someone would like to work with you, how would they do that?
They can book a 1-1 reading with me, or if they are wanting to learn in a community environment, I co-host the Human Design Lab; a membership based platform sharing Human Design and supporting you as you learn.

Lastly, what is your personal mantra for life?
There is no certainty in the mind, back to the body.
I love nothing more than connecting with like-minded souls who strive to better our planet and the humans that inhabit it. Bethany is a prime example of the soul leaders that we need around us; the kinds of people who can grow from difficult life experiences and apply their story through offerings that not only ignite others, but also help them on the path to their own healing journey too.
I am proud to call her a friend and I cannot wait to see where this Human Design pathway takes her!
