Portugal Trip and a Manifestation Pact

#322: Sometimes the biggest transformations happen not when everything changes around you, but when you finally shift how you show up. In this solo episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the internal work that led to one of the most profound shifts I've ever experienced — and why people keep telling me my energy feels completely different.

I'm sharing the honest story of what most of this year really looked like behind the scenes (spoiler: it wasn't what you saw on social media), the exact daily practices that changed everything for me over the summer, and why finally feeling content has nothing to do with checking boxes or hitting milestones.

This episode is for you if:

• You're doing all the "right things" but still feel like something's missing
• You're tired of feeling like you're grasping for the next achievement to feel whole
• You're ready to shift your energy but don't know where to start
• You want to understand what manifestation actually looks like in practice
• You're struggling with the gap between how your life looks and how it feels

I talk about…

• Why going full-time with the podcast in 2024 brought up more triggers than I expected
• What it was like to have everything feel hard during the months that looked the most successful from the outside
• My exact daily manifestation practice
• How mirror work went from incredibly uncomfortable to one of my most powerful tools
• Why the manifestations I wanted didn't come exactly when or how I expected, but something better happened instead
• Why feeling content doesn't mean you stop being ambitious
• The real prize of manifestation work
