EP 279 Hypnosis, Human Design & Reinvention: Michelle Boyde’s Unconventional Blueprint

In this eye-opening episode of the Stuck In My Mind Podcast, host Wize El Jefe sits down with Michelle Boyde, a master hypnotist and human design expert, who’s on a mission to rewrite the rules around burnout, limiting beliefs, and what it really means to thrive. Michelle’s journey will resonate with anyone who’s ever ticked all the “right” boxes—career, income, status—only to find themselves burnt out and unfulfilled.

Michelle opens up about the moment burnout pushed her to the brink, and how a panic attack marked her breaking point. What followed was a radical reinvention, a bold move away from the high-powered consulting world toward a career rooted in helping others find alignment and success on their own terms.

Discover how Michelle stumbled into hypnosis and found it to be a powerful tool for reprogramming the subconscious—going deeper than traditional coaching ever could. She breaks down the real difference between willing yourself to change and actually rewiring your beliefs at the body level. Through stories and analogies, Michelle reveals why relying solely on conscious effort keeps us circling the same goals, and how true transformation requires working with the subconscious “liminal space” between who we’ve been and who we’re becoming.

The conversation explores human design—described as your energetic blueprint for potential—and why tapping into this framework helped Michelle shift from relentless hustle to “energetically sustainable success.” Listeners learn how human design’s five types, strategies, and authorities can guide daily decisions and help individuals create lives that fit them, not societal expectations.

The episode’s rich with wisdom on navigating stress, breaking the myth that more productivity equals more meaning, and why chasing purpose often backfires if it isn’t grounded in action and authentic desire. Michelle shares moving client stories, including a life-changing hypnosis session with her own father, which shattered skepticism and brought hope for relief even with conditions thought “incurable.”

Listeners will take away practical tips for tuning into desires, embracing the power of rest, and finding rhythm in alignment with their true selves—plus, insights into making human design and hypnosis tangible, not just theoretical. Whether you’re deep in hustle culture or seeking a soul-level reset, this episode is a blueprint for reinvention, urging you to experiment, embody, and redefine what success—and self-mastery—can truly mean.
