In this episode, Sebastian sits down with Human Design practitioner Kota Mitamura, who brings over 15 years of experience blending ancient wisdom with practical living. Kota explains Human Design as a system for understanding your unique energetic blueprint—how you make decisions, use your energy, and align with your natural strengths.
Living in a remote Japanese village, Kota combines Human Design with principles of permaculture to offer a grounded approach to self-awareness and authentic living. He breaks down the origins of the system, from the I Ching and DNA coding to the body graph, and shows how it influences everything from decision-making to relationships, environment, and daily rhythms.
The conversation explores the five energy types, key profiles, and how we’re designed to interact with others. Kota also shares insights on the upcoming 2027 shift in human consciousness and what it could mean for individuality and collective life.
Whether you're a leader, parent, or simply curious, this episode offers a clear and practical introduction to living in alignment with your design.
