Today we’d like to introduce you to Fiona Bleetman
Hi Fiona, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
From a very young age, I struggled to communicate in front of people. In primary school, I would have such bad anxiety about speaking in front of the class. Whenever the teacher would pick on me, my heartbeat would be out of my chest, my vision would go narrow, and I would break into a sweat.
Then, when I went to university and I had to present in front of the tutor group, I would feel totally dissociated from my body and stumble back to my seat, unable to feel my legs.
I then started my career as a Data Analyst. I was safe with my head in Excel spreadsheets, but when it came to team meetings, I would never put myself in a position to contribute. If I had something to say, I would wait and whisper it to my manager after the meeting.
Then, when the Pandemic hit, I decided I wanted to start a Wellness Business. However, I knew that in order to be a business owner and leader, I would have to find my voice!
When I left my corporate job as a Data Analyst to start my Health Coaching Business, I spent MONTHS trying to sit down and record an online training course because that’s what I saw other people in the industry were doing. But what seemed seamless to them seemed an impossible task for me. I couldn’t get my words out. I sat there day after day trying to record, but nothing came out of me. When I eventually came across Human Design, I changed my STRATEGY accordingly.
When I was going through this period in my business journey, I found Human Design, which taught me that my Throat Center is undefined (which means I have inconsistent access to energy here and that I am amplified to speak when there are others in front of me).
I stopped “wasting my TIME” trying to record myself from my bedroom and started speaking with people in front of me.
From working with my Human Design, I learnt the strategies that work for me.
I discovered what my TALENTS are and HOW to use them in their highest expression, how to make aligned DECISIONS based on my design, what ENVIRONMENTS are best for me to work in, how I best PROCESS INFORMATION and how to show up in relationships with other people based on their design.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
You have to get uncomfortable in order to grow.
From transitioning to the young girl who could not speak in front of people, I am now a public speaker. Human Design showed me how I am designed to communicate and how people best receive me.
I started by public speaking for 60 seconds at networking events. I kept returning to do my 60 seconds for weeks. I was then invited to run a retreat workshop, but I said I could only do it in collaboration with someone else.
Now, I’ve been running my own weekly events and workshops for the last 7 months. I’ve been invited to speak on different podcasts and run events at multiple retreats.
We’ve been impressed with Wellbeing From Source, but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
I support conscious entrepreneurs in elevating their businesses by working in alignment with their Human Design.
Human Design is a precise system derived from ancient principles (the I Ching, the Kabbalah, and the Hindu-Brahmin chakra system), astrology, and quantum physics that helps us tap into our natural abilities and operate in alignment with our makeup.
We are all born with a purpose, and we are perfectly designed to be able to achieve our purpose.
When we live in alignment with our design, life becomes easier and flows. You will become magnetic for aligned opportunities, have more energy, and feel a deep sense of fulfilment.
However, when our conditioning or limiting beliefs steer us out of alignment, life becomes hard, stagnant and an uphill battle.
I supported my client to:
– Identify and rewrite any limiting beliefs/ conditioning that is holding them back
– Identify and regain the confidence to tap into their natural skills
– Learn how to use your energy in harmony with their design to reduce resistance, stagnation and burnout
The results:
– Increased confidence in decision making
– Improved efficiency and productivity
– Increased self-confidence and self-efficacy
– Improved energy levels
– Become magnetic for aligned opportunities
What sets me apart is that I now use my Analytical skills to analyse people’s body graphs. I bridge the gap between the physical, structured, logical world and the spiritual world so that conscious businesses can achieve more, serve more people, and live the quality of life they deserve.
I live a beautiful digital nomad life, working with clients and delivering talks internationally. My clients are from all over the world and I’m so proud of the impact and reach my work has on the international community.
What sort of changes are you expecting over the next 5-10 years?
So far, I’ve been coaching individuals 1-1, and it’s been incredible to see the transformations that occur in their lives.
In the next 5-10 years, I see this work being brought into organisations to elevate the productivity and efficiency of teams. So, this is something I’m just starting to do as well. I’ve recently launched a new consultancy arm to my business. In the HD consultancy, I offer HD Leadership Training so that leaders can learn how to operate from their highest potential and best support their team/ clients. I also have an in-house consultancy offer where I work with the teams directly to address areas of stagnation or poor performance.
