Alex Cantone on Navigating Motherhood and Entrepreneurship with Human Design

Join host Michelle Pellizzon and guest Alex Cantone for a light-hearted chat about the intersection of Human Design, motherhood, and entrepreneurship.

⁠Alex⁠ is a 6/2 self-projected projector known in the online space for sharing her unique take on what it looks like embodying Human Design awareness out in the world. She calls on her own life experiences to create content for her community and a Projector-centered podcast, ⁠You’re Invited⁠. Alex is currently navigating the world of new motherhood and allowing her business to transition as she enters this new phase of life.

This episode invites us to rethink what we call “balance”, when juggling new parenthood, navigating life’s biggest changes, and running a business.

Key insights from this episode include:

  • The connection between the "last time meditation” and newborn parenting

  • Alex and Michelle’s experiences of returning to work post-childbirth with a fresh outlook on their business operations, fostering a more lucid mindset

  • Techniques for achieving a thriving business and fulfilling life while working less

  • The interplay between the 4/6 line in Human Design and constructing a business workflow attuned to your energy type

“It was really challenging because I had to detach from my business and social media and everything that I feel like I’ve worked towards and come to peace with the fact that non-linear growth is just a part of the process. … And that I am maybe not working toward the growth of my business right now, but I think that the job of growing and creating life in my body is pretty damn important. So it’s coming to peace with right now this is my job.”
— Alex Cantone
“I’m still working on things behind the scenes, but it’s not necessarily driven by me being like “I have to do this thing now.” And it’s felt more aligned than ever before. So I’m like, “cool this is actually a really fun way of doing business.” Just making myself available and assessing whether or not I have the energy of doing whatever is being presented to me.”
— Alex Cantone
“It hasn’t been this focus on business — despite me investing in a business coach for the year. Ironically it’s been more focused on love and support. And maybe that’s the pearl — letting myself be supported rather than feeling like all of this stuff that I have built has to be the one single sole thing that supports me and is my foundation. My foundation can be my people and my partner and my child and these other identities and roles that I play in the world. The business can be moreso the icing on the cake rather than the pedestal it sits on.”
— Alex Cantone
“What brought me here in the first place? And what was I showing up and talking about and doing before making a dollar was even on my radar?”
— Alex Cantone
“When I just let things happen and allow whatever is meant for me to happen, then the coolest invitations come. And I never would’ve been able to see that if I was so busy going back to the whiteboard of my one-year, three-year, five-year timeline every single day.”
— Alex Cantone
“There’s so much that people can stop doing today, right now, that is burning them out and is not contributing to anything in their life other than burnout. It’s not worth it.”
— Michelle Pellizzon
“I think we make a lot of sacrifices, not compromises when it comes to making money because of programming, a scarcity mindset, and just not knowing when our next thing will come. And that’s just a trust muscle and a flexing your intuition muscle.”
— Michelle Pellizzon
