MANIFEST WITH MANDY

  • THE INTUITION GUIDE

    In 1978, Cheryl Bradshaw decided to try her luck on the popular gameshow, The Dating Game. At the end of the game, Cheryl chose Rodney Alcala as the lucky bachelor with whom she would share the date prize. However, she ultimately declined to go on the awarded date, later explaining that after meeting Alcala in…

  • FEAR AND FAITH

    When people think of the relationship between Faith and Fear, they picture an almost biblical struggle – David stepping forward to battle the giant Goliath. Although it seems like these two exist at opposite ends of the spectrum, the chasm betweem them fraught with trials and tribulations which must be overcome before one can leave…

  • SOCIAL MEDIA SHAM

    Truth be told, I’ve been debating whether to write this post since we restarted the blog, but after a little doomscrolling through Instagram last week, I felt I needed to issue the following warning: BEWARE OF ‘MANIFESTATION GURUS’ ON SOCIAL MEDIA!!! Especially the ones who tell you that manifestation is an ‘energy exchange’, so you…

  • STAY IN YOUR LANE

    Pop quiz:You’re driving on the highway, approaching the off-ramp that leads to your destination. But the cars in front of you are going 2.95 mph. Do you:A) Change lanes and try to speed up enough to pass them and get back into your lane so you don’t miss the turnoff, and, in doing so, risk…

  • VAGUELY SPECIFIC

    Perhaps the greatest paradox in manifesting a new reality is the need to be vaguely specific when plotting the course that sets you on that new timeline. If I asked, “What are you trying to manifest?”, most people would say ‘I want to be a millionaire’, or ‘I want to live in a fancy house…

  • FIELD OF DREAMS

    What if the only thing limiting your potential is your ability to dream big? If someone offered to give you a house right now – any house in the world that you wanted – what would you choose? Would you ask for a nice split-level with a two-car garage in a quiet suburban neighborhood, or…

  • WALK AWAY

    Picture this: You’re moving into your brand new house, the house you’ve been dreaming about since forever ago, the house that you worked your butt off to be able to afford, that you spent months eating nothing but ramen so you could save up enough for the downpayment. Would you take your ratty old sofa…

  • A GRATEFUL HEART

    Imagine you helped your friend carry their sofa up six flights of stairs to their apartment, and your reward for this kindly deed was a half-hour’s worth of complaints about how the color looked different in the store and the cushions seem less plush than those on the display model. No ‘Thank you’ for your…

  • THE POWER OF PERSPECTIVE

    Picture this: You get home from work, you open the front door, and your Jack Russell Terrier darts outside, his little legs moving with the speed of light as he circumnavigates the lawn in a whirlwind of zoomies. Adorable, right? Now picture it from the perspective of the poor ant who’s just trying to get…

  • FROM CONCEPT TO CREATION

    By now, everyone has heard the term ‘manifestation’. Unfortunately, a lot of people still dismiss it as hippie-dippy nonsense, or they write it off as just another social media fad, because they don’t have an in-depth understanding of what that term means. Manifestation isn’t some ‘woo woo’ garbage that people spout for views and likes…
