Envy as an Expander

We’re closing out the year by revisiting one of our most loved and impactful episodes of 2025. Especially during our end-of-year Return to Magic Challenge, this conversation on manifestation tests feels more relevant than ever.

Jessica and Lacy break down the seven most common types of manifestation tests, from scarcity and ego to boundaries and core wounds. They offer clear insight into how to recognize these tests, reframe your perspective, and move through them with greater self-trust. This replay is a powerful reminder that every challenge is an invitation to step deeper into your most magnetic, authentic self.

Whether this is your first listen or a return visit, it’s an episode you’ll come back to again and again on your manifestation journey.

And if you’re feeling called, it’s not too late to join the Return to Magic Challenge. A season of nurturing, creativity, and magnetism awaits!

The Expanded Podcast, from To Be Magnetic™ (TBM), is the leading manifestation podcast rooted in neuroscience, psychology, and energetics. Hosted by TBM’s Chief Content Officer Jessica Gill, with monthly appearances from founder Lacy Phillips, Expanded is where science and the mystical meet to help you manifest in the most grounded, practical, and life-changing way.

At TBM, we’ve redefined manifestation through Neural Manifestation™—our proven, science-backed method developed with neuroscientist Dr. Tara Swart. This process helps you reprogram limiting beliefs at the subconscious level so you can create the life most aligned with your authenticity.

Each week, we take you inside the TBM practice to help you expand your subconscious to believe what you desire is possible. Through expert interviews, thought leader conversations, TBM teachings, and real member success stories, you’ll learn how to:
 – Rewire your subconscious mind and step into your worth
 – Heal your inner child and integrate shadow work
 – Set boundaries, strengthen intuition, and reclaim self-worth
 – Manifest relationships, careers, abundance, and experiences that align with your true self

With over than 40 million downloads and a global community in over 100 countries, Expanded has become the gold standard in manifestation content. Think of it as your weekly practice for expanding your mind, believing what you want is possible, and manifesting the life you’re meant to live.

Past guests include leading voices such as Mel Robbins, Lewis Howes, Jenna Zoe, Martha Beck, Dr. Joe Dispenza, Dr. Gabor Maté, Mark Groves, and Brianna Wiest.
