The Manifest Movement

This episode is all about the book The Game of Life and How to Play it by Florence Schovel Shinn and all the mistakes, lies and shitty behaviour I had. Firstly, I tell you about a lie I told my husband. I said I paid $1,000 for a manifestation coach and I paid $6,000. I then said some shitty things about an ex - these are all LESSONS.Highly recommend the BOOK but beware - you will start analyzing yourself - so be ready!

The key to manifestation is to "act as if". Become the person that already has what they want.Acting ‘as if’ is the practice of embodying the mindset, behaviors, and energy of the person you want to become before the external evidence shows up. It’s not about pretending or being fake—it’s about aligning your thoughts and actions with your desired identity so you can step into new possibilities with confidence. When you act as if you already possess the qualities or success you’re pursuing, you retrain your brain, shift your emotional state, and create momentum that naturally leads you closer to your goals. In this episode, we explore how to use this powerful mindset tool to elevate your life, rewire limiting beliefs, and show up as the highest version of yourself.

You don't manifest what you want - you manifest who you are...Manifestation is a decision to show up as your authentic self and to set your boundaries. In this episode, I talk about my own journey of putting myself out there and how it can be unsettling to say things that you know to be true but people might not take well - this is especially true in the space around money and health. People do not like to acknowledge that their thoughts, feelings and beliefs are creating their reality - good and bad.It is also about how you react to other people's success. Are you in a low vibrational frequency - jealousy and envy? This needs to be turned around. We need to remember that what someone else has (even if we want that) has got nothing to do with our journey. Nothing. In fact, the only thing that it will do to us is put us in a low vibrational frequency. So, if you see someone has something that you want, use this line: Universe, Me Next! That's it. Watch your vibration switch up.The Universe will send you more of what you are willing to accept. You keep saying "yes" to things that you don't want - you will get more of that.

In this episode, I explore one of the hardest manifestation lessons — what to do when you’re doing everything, but your manifestation is still not coming true. The Universe has three answers: yes, yes but not yet, or no because something better is coming.If you’ve been doing everything right and still wondering why it’s not working, this episode will remind you that your effort is never wasted — it’s just preparing you for the better that’s on its way.I give my own examples of getting an immediate yes from the Universe (e.g. selling out The Sugar Club), a yes, but not yet (e.g. my twin boys - they came 6 years later!) and a no from the Universe because something better is coming. My "no" was not getting a job with Fitbit (which to me, was my dream job) and getting a job that taught me exactly what I needed for my own business.I have manifested everything - abundance, twins, soulmate, dream jobs, dream home, podcast guests.
