Channeling, mediums, and Dear Guides podcast

Most people think confidence is about believing in yourself. Gabrielle Bernstein knows better — it's about befriending the parts of yourself that hold you back. After two decades as a spiritual teacher and writing 11 bestselling books, the author of The Universe Has Your Back and Self-Help has cracked the code on why we sabotage our success, stay stuck in negative loops, and block the very abundance we're trying to attract.

In this raw, deeply personal conversation, Gabrielle breaks down the exact Internal Family Systems (IFS) framework that changed her life, why pushing harder actually blocks manifestation, how suppressed trauma creates parts that sabotage you decades later, and why the 3 AM spiral can be stopped by visualizing your thoughts in a bubble and sending them away.

And it’s not just vibes — it's applied psychology. If you've ever felt like you're blocking your own success, spiraling in negative self-talk, or pushing so hard you can't receive what's trying to come to you, this episode will rewire how you think about confidence, manifestation, and what it actually takes to attract abundance.

If this episode hits a nerve, good. Because insight without action is just expensive therapy. That’s why we built Main Street Millionaire Live — three days with real operators learning how to buy and build boring, cash-flowing businesses that create actual freedom. Main Street Millionaire Live is where mindset turns into money.

Less manifesting. More ownership. Learn more at https://contrarianthinking.biz/MSML_BDYT26
