I help business owners use Human Design to make better business decisions
I’m Elena Atkinson, a Human Design Strategist.
I work with capable business owners who are tired of second-guessing themselves, forcing strategies that do not suit them and trying to run their business according to rules that were never designed for them.
My work is practical.
You bring me the decision, pattern or business issue.
I use Human Design to help you understand what may be influencing it, how you are naturally designed to decide and work, and what makes sense to do next.
I am interested in what Human Design changes.
Not just what your chart says.
How I got here
Before Human Design, I spent more than 20 years working in administration, operations, training and support.
I have trained staff, tutored people, built websites, worked with systems and processes, solved problems and spent a lot of time being the person who looks at something complicated and asks:
How do we make this make more sense?
When I built my own business, I did what most business owners do.
I listened to the advice.
Post more.
Be more visible.
Follow the formula.
Build the funnel.
Create more offers.
Stay consistent.
Some of it worked.
Some of it absolutely did not.
What interested me was why perfectly sensible business advice could work brilliantly for one person and feel completely wrong for another.
That question eventually brought me to Human Design.
What Human Design changed for me
Human Design gave me a different way to look at decisions.
It helped me recognise where I was forcing things because I thought I should be able to make them work.
It helped me question whether a strategy was actually right for me before automatically assuming I needed to try harder.
And it gave me a way to separate:
what could work
from
what actually makes sense for the person who has to carry it out.
That distinction became the basis of my work.
What I actually do now
I do not use Human Design as a collection of labels.
Knowing that someone is a Projector, Generator, Manifestor, Manifesting Generator or Reflector can be useful.
But I want to know what that information changes in the real business.
What does it mean for:
- the offer you are unsure whether to keep
- the opportunity you keep talking yourself into
- the way you are selling
- the workload you are carrying
- the decision you keep reopening
- the business structure that no longer suits you
That is where my work sits.
We start with the business problem, not the chart.
Why my background matters
I have always been interested in application.
Information is only useful to me when we can do something with it.
That is why my work combines Human Design with years of experience in business support, systems, training, problem-solving and practical decision-making.
I am not here to tell you how to run your business.
I am here to help you examine what is happening, recognise what may be influencing your decisions and make better use of the information already available to you.
You remain the person making the decision.
My values
Autonomy
Your business belongs to you.
My job is not to make you dependent on me or tell you what you should want.
Directness
I will tell you what I see and explain why I think it matters.
Practicality
Human Design has to be usable in the real world.
Focus
We work with the issue that actually needs attention rather than analysing your chart for the sake of it.
Candour
I do not promise that Human Design will magically fix your business.
It is one useful source of information that can change how you understand and approach a decision.
Who I work best with
I work best with business owners who are capable, thoughtful and willing to take responsibility for their own decisions.
You may already know some Human Design.
You may know almost nothing about it.
Either is fine.
What matters is that you have a real business question, pattern or change you want to examine.
If you want someone to hand you a formula and tell you exactly what to do, I am probably not the right person.
If you want help understanding what actually makes sense for you, we will probably get on very well.
Where to start
If you have one specific business decision, pattern or problem, start with the Human Design Decision Audit.
If several parts of the business need looking at together, the Human Design Business Blueprint gives us the wider picture.
If you are already making significant changes and want ongoing support while you implement them, the Human Design Business Strategy is the deeper level of work.
And yes, there are four cats
Business is important.
It does not need to be joyless.
Puss, Fergie, Busby and Stitch remain entirely convinced that they are senior management.
I have chosen not to correct them.
