The Secret Compass Inside You: How the G Center Guides Your Midlife Reinvention

So much of the struggle in perimenopause and midlife is due to physical symptoms--night sweats, libido in the tank, brain fog...


but I like to think of this time period as our ultimate opportunity to finally live the life we came here to live.


Up until this point, most of us have been living for others.

We followed society's game plan.

We went to school, stayed in a career for decades, became mothers...


And maybe all of that has been pretty good for us.


BUT.


Maybe we lost our true selves somewhere along the way.


When that happens, I suggest we recalibrate the G Center. Let's take a look.


(You can listen to this week's pod, where I dive into this, here.)

Your G Center: the OG GPS


Your G Center is the center in Human Design that holds the energies of love, direction, and your identity.


👉 If you're not sure if yours is defined or not, run your free HD chart here.


If yours is defined, you'll have more consistent access to this energy, and if it's undefined, it will be less consistent.


The G Center has been quietly guiding you for your entire life, attracting opportunities, people, things into your life that ultimately fulfill your soul's purpose.


Beneath your sternum lives the Magnetic Monopole--the rock star of your whole design. It's that part of you that IS the magnet. It's what fuels your Authority--guiding that somatic response/interaction to everything in this 3D world. The Magnetic Monopole is part of the G Center, which makes sense as it's all about WHO WE ARE.


Why Midlife = Your Cosmic Recalibration


In midlife, as you're navigating the decline of estrogen and generally scraping by through the hormonal chaos, big life questions tend to arise.


You start to wonder--is this really it?

Is this the life I want to live?

Are the choices I've made actually aligned with who I am today (and who I want to become)?


You’re deconditioning — peeling back the layers of what the world told you to be, so you can get back to what your G Center always knew.


Some might call it a midlife crisis, but I like to think of it as coming home to your truth. You're recalibrating to clear out all of the junk that's gunking up that magnet within so that you can strengthen its pull toward the things that are truly aligned for you.


And while the estrogen decline is helping you give less fucks, your Uranus opposition (happens sometimes between ages 40-42) is shaking things up as well--asking you to reflect on your choices thus far.


It's as if by design. 😏


How to Actually Start Listening to Your G Center


It can be challenging to stop habits that it's taken you decades to establish.


People pleasing may be so deeply engrained that you barely realize you're doing it.

Saying "yes" to things you think you have to do may be second nature, and the thought of saying "no" may make you want to vomit in your mouth a little.


Rest assured, if you're feeling uneasy about it, you're probably on the right track.


Here are some practical tips:

  • Get your Perimenopause Energy Blueprint: This is your personalized map to support you through this phase of life with a focus on your journey through perimenopause. It isn’t just information.

    It’s midlife relief in a handy, no-nonsense, no bullshit, just-what-you-need guide.

  • Track your magnetic pivots: Journal about the moments life redirected you and consider how the G Center was driving

  • Feel into YES vs. NO: Where do you light up? Where do you shrink? Your body knows!

  • Consider coaching: Integration matters. If you just learn about all of this but never DO anything with is, how is it actually helping? Let me know you're interested here.


Bottom Line...


Midlife isn’t about blowing it all up (unless you want to — no judgment). It’s about re-rooting in the YOU that’s been waiting patiently under layers of "shoulds."


Your G Center — your secret compass — is pulling you home. Your Magnetic Monopole knows the way.
