Tis the season of manifesting deeper love and more aligned relationships. And as Lacy points out, mid-winter brings new light, new hope, and new growth. Whether you’re happily single, searching for new love, or manifesting a closer relationship (or a million other versions of love!) this is the perfect time to let a little more light into your life. We love this day because while, yes, commercially there is a lot of programming, we consider it just the perfect time to look inward and reflect on all your relationships. This episode with Janelle, Lacy, and Jessica holds so many pearls of wisdom that will help you on whatever journey you find yourself on when it comes to manifesting love. When is a “spark” healthy versus a nervous system trigger? Are we speaking to ourselves internally with the love we are seeking? Are you falling for the Disney love myth? You don’t have to wait for someone to take you to the restaurant you’re dying to go to for love to find you. You are the architect of your love life, and it starts with the foundation of authenticity. Your love journey starts with you here and now. Just press play.
