What is your shell? Let's say it's bash. Bash uses either ~/.bash_profile if it exists, or falls back to ~/.profile. To export a environment variable from it means to `export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$HOME/path/to/your/profile1:$HOME/path/to/your/profile2:$XDG_DATA_DIRS`, and so on. If you are using other shell, check your shell's manual for the profile it uses. If you are using guix home, you can use home-environment-variables-service-type, it will put it to the correct place, where it will be sourced from the profile file. Examples are in the manual.
