E #491: Spiritual Bypassing in Business: Why More Certifications Won’t Make You More Money

In this raw and savage episode, Kehla calls out one of the biggest traps spiritual entrepreneurs fall into — mistaking personal growth for business growth. After spending tens of thousands of dollars on coaching certifications herself, Kehla reveals how spiritual bypassing shows up as over-investing in self-development, chasing the dopamine hit of learning, and avoiding the real work of building a business. 🔥 You’ll hear: ✨ How spiritual bypassing disguises itself as “productive growth” ✨ The difference between becoming a better coach and a better business owner ✨ Why chasing certifications keeps you from mastering sales, messaging, and systems ✨ What true integration looks like when you merge Human Design, Gene Keys, and strategy ✨ How to know if you’re using spirituality to avoid refining your business If you’re done playing small and ready to build a scalable business that actually pays you for your genius, this is your wake-up call. 🎯 Doors close October 31st for Signature Program by Design — get 9 months for the price of 6 and join the live 2-hour Launch Vehicle Lab on October 30th.

In this episode, Kehla sits down with Dr. Karen Curry Parker for a powerful conversation on moving beyond the rigidity of “just follow strategy & authority.” Together, they explore the collective overwhelm so many are experiencing, why entrepreneurs feel frozen in uncertainty, and how Human Design offers a prescription for rebuilding self-trust. Karen shares how the body is mapped through the Human Design chart—linking gates and centers to specific somatic signals, including Gate 26’s connection with trauma—and why strategy & authority are meant as tools for reconnection, not lifelong rules. The two also unpack radical self-responsibility, the pitfalls of labels, and the freedom that comes when decisions are made from an embodied place of choice and sovereignty. ✨ Listeners Will Learn: 🔹 How to navigate rapid change without burning out 🔹 A crash course on body–chart connections you won’t find elsewhere 🔹 Why “seven years of deconditioning” is an oversimplification 🔹 How to move from not-self rules into embodied choice and sovereignty 📚 Resources Mentioned: 🔗 Free Quantum Human Design chart: freehumandesignchart.com 🔗 Learn more at quantumhumandesign.com 🔗 Karen’s book: Quantum Wellness 🔗 Karen’s “Harmony at Home” masterclass series on parenting by design (Sept 15) Karen's Website ‼️ Join Built for Speed live Masterclass with Kehla (Sept 22nd) ‼️ Follow Karen on Instagram Check out Kehla's website Grab Kehla’s Complimentary Resources Follow Kehla on IG
