Facilitators & WisdomKeepers

Brandy Jordan is the steward of High Desert Human Design this year, carrying the gathering into its sixth-line season. She comes to this work as a Human Design and astrology practitioner, a teacher, and a builder of living systems. Underneath all of it sits a background in Metaphysical Psychology and substance abuse counseling.

This year she is producing HDHD inside The Spiral of Everything, the architecture she has been developing to hold offerings, practitioners, and community for over 2 decades. Her opening talk walks people into that map. As a way to locate where they already are and what is alive for them right now.

She is also offering a Human Design 101 What happens in the Second turn of the Spiral of everything? Brandy teaches from lived experience more than performance. She is direct, a little poetic, and steady in a room. She is a mother of four and grandmother of two, and she builds her work the way she lives: through relationship, integrity, and a trust that people can recognize their own next honest step.

Meghan O'Malley is a Speaker, Author, Facilitator, Coach, and Consultant whose work lives at the intersection of ancient wisdom and emerging science — and whose own unlearning has been the greatest teacher of all.

With a Master's in Community Counseling and over a decade of clinical experience as a therapist, Meghan spent years helping people navigate mental health, trauma, and relational complexity before deliberately leaving the conventional therapeutic paradigm to do work that is truly whole-person. She brings that clinical depth into a far more expansive container — one that weaves together somatic intelligence, applied neuroscience, neurofeedback, Human Design, spirituality, energy work, intuition, and quantum theory as a holistic leadership modality.

As a 2026 TEDx Speaker — whose talk Unshakeable: The Power of Connection When Everything Is Crumbling was born from the conversations she kept hearing about people searching for solid ground in a world that won't stop shifting — Meghan works with individuals and teams navigating the individual and collective changes, challenges, and in-betweens of life, helping them become something truly new on the other side.

She is the co-author of Unstuck Yourself: Thrive Beyond Burnout & Discover Your True Purpose, a book that blends an embodied introduction to the Human Design types with somatics, science, and heart-centered activism — giving readers both a map and a process for re-storying their lives and living into their true purpose and design.

She is also the host of The Imaginal Change Podcast.

Meghan believes Human Design is not a system to be intellectually understood — it's a map toward deeper truth and alignment that is meant to be lived.

Nameh Marsin — Whole-Self Coach At the heart of Nameh's work are embodiment tools, Human Design, and Parts work — anchored in the core belief that the fear, the resistance, the "who am I to live a bold life?" — that's not a stop sign. That tension is the doorway back to your own permission.

A 3/5 Emotional Generator on the Cross of Explanation with split definition, Nameh has been living and studying Human Design since 2021. With Gate 49 as her Personality Sun and her Kali Godhead signature, she lives and breathes personal revolution — and has been tracking her own across 50+ years.

Her chart tells a layered story: activations through 18/58, 34/57, and gates 49 + 50 drew her toward legal advocacy and nearly into a state's attorney career. Her 32/54 and Gate 46 kept pointing inward first — and her North Node 54.4 continues unfolding. Her undefined G center and 3rd line resilience turned what might have looked like a meandering path into her most generative teacher.

That undefined G center, paired with fear motivation, Mountains environment, and possibilities view, is what can support Nameh in holding a full spectrum of tools for her clients. Her attention lives in life's tensions — witnessing the pee-pee dance of self-discovery, and supporting every seeker in writing their own permission slips for a kind, loving self-presence as life delights them along the way. She is also the host of "Human Design and Why I Love It" (launching end of June), a podcast exploring HD through lived experience.

Angie Grandt is a Generational Healing Specialist dedicated to helping parents and individuals break the inherited patterns that keep families stuck in stress, disconnection, and survival mode. She is a Quantum Human Design™ Specialist, Quantum Alignment System practitioner, Certified Family and Relationship Coach, EFT (tapping) practitioner, and an early intervention speech therapist with more than two decades of experience supporting families navigating autism, attachment challenges, and complex behaviors.

Angie’s work bridges practical, trauma-informed coaching with the energetic insight of Human Design, giving her clients a clear, compassionate framework for understanding themselves and their children. She is known for translating complex emotional and behavioral dynamics into tools that feel usable in real life—helping parents move from reactivity to connection and from frustration to confidence.

Her approach is deeply informed by lived experience. As a biological parent, adoptive parent, and former foster parent, Angie understands firsthand the realities of loving children with big needs while carrying the weight of generational patterns. This perspective allows her to meet families without judgment and guide them toward meaningful, sustainable change.

Angie is the founder of Connected Parents with Angie, where she teaches a Human Design–based parenting approach that supports nervous system regulation, strengthens relationships, and creates lasting generational healing. Through coaching, workshops, and her podcast Sometimes Love Isn’t Enough, she empowers families to transform chaos into connection and build homes rooted in safety, understanding, and authenticity.

Jess Ryan and Steph Hanson are the co-creators of Earth School, a practice space and community for navigating the lessons of being human on this earth plane using Human Design, nervous system regulation, embodiment, and energy work, to navigate the collective transition. Together, they bring decades of experience in therapy, yoga, somatic practice, spiritual inquiry, and group facilitation.

Jess Ryan is a licensed professional counselor, trauma therapist, Reiki Master, shamanic practitioner, TRE® provider, yoga educator, and PhD student in Public Humanities. Her work explores the body as archive, healing as public practice, and the role of nervous system capacity in personal and collective change. She integrates IFS, EMDR, somatic work, Human Design, energy medicine, and narrative practice.

Steph Hanson is a licensed professional counselor, certified IFS practitioner, yoga educator, somatic guide, spiritual facilitator, and artist whose work centers embodiment, becoming, and nervous system repair and restoration Self-sovereignty. Through Earth School, Jess and Steph create grounded, experiential spaces where people can explore Human Design as lived practice rather than information alone.

Their shared facilitation is trauma-informed, relational, practical, and reverent of the body’s intelligence. They are especially interested in supporting practitioners and participants as they navigate deconditioning, grief, capacity, projection, and the selves we had to become in order to survive and belong.

Hi, I’m Merritt.

Early elementary school teacher turned systems-thinker who facilitates workshops for teams and guides individuals in the knowledge of their Human Design.

I am an investigator who has spent her ‘10,000 hours’ self-taught in HD. I also am a heretic who wants to say : “that’s nice, but what has all of this information truly said about what it means to be ‘me’ ?”

Well, I can’t say I’ve come to any solid conclusions. But I can say that perhaps our Human Design should be re-written as a verb, not a noun.

I am not just a “A Self-Projected Projector.” I am more like “a Self-Projected Projector, Self-Projected Projector-ing.”

That brings you and me to this magical place called the “G-Center” or “Soul.”  My work in embodying this language grounds my facilitation in a **somatic, heart-centered approach** that values nervous system awareness, relational attunement, and practical clarity, not just labels.

I focus on translating the chart into usable insight that supports your day-to-day decisions, communication, and regulation to create a more whole relationship between your Self and your community.

My training in workshop facilitation comes from Social Prescencing Theater and Warm Data Labs. I will be joined by my partner Cullen Kowalski in facilitating both of these practices at HDHD.

Hi, I’m Maggie Battista. I help you see more of yourself so you can be more of yourself. As a bridge between dimensions, I hold space for your highest potential rather than enabling your limitations. I see your magnificence and I won't collude with your smallness.

Through fierce love wrapped in ancestral wisdom, I reflect back your true capacity. I'm here to love you into your greatness— through revolutionary truth-telling that calls you into the fullness of who you came here to be.

I am an oracle and channeler. I am a ceremonialist and carry priestess energy. I am a writer and storyteller. I am a sacred business alchemist and entrepreneur. I am a soul mirror and catalyst. I heard my soul and ancestors speak through profound personal loss and intuitive activation.

My work emerges from my own embodied becoming—I share only what I have lived and integrated. From this place of frequency alignment, maintained through devotion, ritual, and deep ancestral connection, I help you discover and sustain your own resonance.

Because when you're attuned to your Soul's frequency, you become a bridge between worlds, connect with the full spectrum of your being, and enlight your greatness. In this and all dimensions.

Alison Dale is an ecosomatic astrologer, Human Design guide, and breathwork practitioner based in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where she runs Hearth & Spiral. Her work sits at the intersection of astrology, Human Design, Gene Keys, and somatic practice, with a focus on helping people move from understanding their own design intellectually to actually living from it.

Alison developed an internal framework she calls the compass: heart as center, with voice, eros, creativity, and receptivity as the four directions. Where charts and bodygraphs function as maps, showing where someone is, the compass is what lets a person navigate by feel, from the body, in real time.

She works with clients through readings, 1:1 coaching, and embodiment practices including conscious connected breathwork, drawing on years of personal practice and study across astrology, Human Design, the Celtic wheel of the year, and mythology . Alison is also a consultant on ELA Map, a locational astrology and human design app, and is currently developing a book exploring the descent and return cycle as a framework for navigating major life transitions.

She lives in Santa Fe with her partner, daughter, 2 pups and 2 cats, and spends as much time as possible in the garden.

As a practitioner for over two decades of the play-based Developmental Transformations (DvT) method of drama therapy, in sessions of which, therapist and clients improvise movements and roles in scenes, and as a teacher of new drama therapists, most notably as Coordinator and Core Faculty of the graduate Drama Therapy Program at Antioch University Seattle, 2014-2021, Fred Landers (PhD, LCAT, RDT-BCT) has consistently experimented with the form of the work, taking DvT to the streets (Urban Play, 2006), incorporating technology (Hybrid DvT, 2023), and most recently combining DvT with Human Design, with which he has been experimenting since November, 2022. Among Fred’s clients who have used DvT to help them regulate their nervous systems are combat veterans in a national, inpatient post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) program; child survivors of sexual abuse in a child guidance clinic; middle school students at an in-school health clinic in the Bronx; and adults with diagnoses of mental illness who are adapting to high levels of instability and changing their lives as they re-enter the world. In addition to his graduate-level teaching in the U.S., Fred has trained new practitioners of DvT drama therapy in New Zealand, South Korea, and China.

I’m Rebekah Anderson, a 2/4 Splenic Projector who has been actively living my Human Design experiment for almost five years. What started as curiosity became a steady, embodied practice that reshaped how I make decisions, move through relationships, and navigate major life transitions. I’m a certified Living Your Design Guide and spent three years in an ongoing Human Design study group, along with two years studying through HDX with Emma Dunwoody. I’m especially drawn to the fundamentals: Type, Strategy, Authority, Profile, Centers and Circuitry, and how they show up in real, lived experience rather than just theory. Through my practice, Living It Up Human Design, I offer Human Design Clarity Sessions and one-on-one coaching, primarily supporting women in midlife transitions, including career, relationships, and family dynamics. I’m currently in my Uranus Opposition, and that phase has deepened my curiosity about how life cycles interact with our design in real time. I love gatherings and community spaces. Much of my own integration has happened in spaces where people are honestly exploring their charts together. That’s the kind of space I enjoy facilitating: interactive, reflective, and collaborative.

Raelynn is a USMC veteran, storyteller, guide, and creative rebel devoted to helping people reconnect with the truth underneath the roles, masks, and survival patterns they’ve outgrown. Drawing from her lived experience as a mother, veteran, teacher, healer, and lifelong seeker, her work blends raw honesty, intuitive insight, ancestral healing, Human Design, Gene Keys contemplation, nervous system awareness, and practical holistic living.

Through her platform My Heart of the Story, Raelynn creates spaces where people can stop performing, start witnessing their lives with compassion, and reclaim the parts of themselves they abandoned just to survive. Her approach is deeply human. Equal parts grounded and mystical. She believes healing doesn’t come from pretending to have it all together, but from learning how to sit honestly in the messy middle of being alive.

Known for her bold vulnerability, unconventional wisdom, and ability to turn pain into meaningful connection, Raelynn teaches through storytelling, reflection, humor, and lived embodiment rather than perfection or performance. Whether guiding groups, writing, teaching, podcasting, or building community, her work invites people back to themselves with softer shoulders, deeper roots, and braver hearts.

Stephanie is a 2/4 Emotional Manifestor whose work centers care, inner child healing for grown-ups, and the reclamation of life from survival into sovereignty. Through a blend of therapeutic depth, embodiment, ancestral awareness, and emotional wisdom, she helps people return to the places where care was interrupted so something more rooted, tender, and true can begin. Her work bridges the child within, the wisdom of the body, and the deeper lineages carried through women, families, and culture. Sunny Venusian is a character that Steph plays to bring the energy of divine motherly love to all. An open mic event hosted and MC'd by Sunny Venusian, the mum you wish you'd had... and now you do!
