“It's funny, I've been manifesting, we're all manifesting all day, every day. The only thing is some people are aware that they're consciously manifesting and doing something about it, and other people aren't aware. They're manifesting shit sometimes, right? Shit jobs, shit partners, shit homes, or whatever. And again, absolutely no judgment because there's a part of them that has to be in that. So, I'm just a conscious manifestor. And all that is, is that I just became aware that when I'm in a really shitty mood, or I don't feel or I'm shitty to myself, shitty things are happening around me, and life isn't that enjoyable. But then, when I consciously can be like, okay, well, I can be grateful for this, or I can have this, all of a sudden, life has changed. So, again, I was noticing that I was manifesting, right? But not knowing it was manifestation. So, then throughout my 20s, again, you start hearing about it a bit more, and I'm like, 'Oh, right, the law of attraction, the secret, brilliant, woo-woo, magic, fairy.' It was kind of something that I delved into but didn't fully own and wasn't fully conscious of it. But I was like, 'Oh, I know if I'm in a good mood, good things happen to me, right?' So, that was what I knew manifestation to be. And then I started looking into, and again, this is where it ties into our healing journey, right?”
