Do you feel stuck in a role you have outgrown, but unsure how to make your next move without risking your reputation or burning out?
Are you doing high-level work, carrying invisible responsibility, and still wondering why your impact is not reflected in your title or pay?
Do you know you are capable of more, but feel unclear on how to position yourself for a promotion or raise without working even harder?
Are you tired of waiting to be noticed and ready to be compensated for the value you already bring?
You are in the right place.
Career Growth for Working Women is the podcast for ambitious corporate women who want to advance their careers, increase their income, and gain recognition without overworking, people-pleasing, or shrinking to fit outdated expectations.

Through my 5% Method, we focus on positioning you for meaningful raises, promotions, and career growth because when you consistently perform above and beyond, your pay should too.

87 | Misaligned, Not Broken: What Human Design Reveals About Your True Wiring featuring Stefanie Carlstedt Carlstadt
If you’ve ever followed the rules, worked hard, pushed yourself, tried every strategy, and still felt exhausted, overwhelmed, or like something just wasn’t clicking… this episode is going to land deeply.
Shannon is joined by Stefanie Carlstedt, a certified human design business coach who spent 13 years building and rebuilding businesses the “traditional” way until grief and burnout collided and forced her into radical self-honesty. When she discovered human design, everything changed. She finally understood that she wasn’t broken. She was simply misaligned with how she was naturally wired to work, lead, and make decisions.
In this conversation, we explore:
✅ What human design actually is (and why it’s not another personality test)
✅ Why high-achieving women often burnout no matter how strong or capable they are
✅ How understanding your design helps you make better decisions, avoid overload, and trust yourself again
✅ What happens when you build a business or career that doesn’t match your energetic blueprint
✅ How human design strengthens your parenting, your relationships, and your leadership
✅ Ways teams + workplaces can use human design to collaborate better and reduce conflict
✅ The surprising shifts Stephanie experienced when she stopped forcing herself to fit the mold
Whether you’re curious about human design, craving more alignment, or just tired of feeling like something’s “wrong” with how you work… this episode offers the clarity and validation you’ve been needing.
