Manifestation is everywhere—vision boards, affirmations, full-moon rituals—but what happens when you do everything “right” and your dream still doesn’t come true? In this episode, Sheila shares the messy truth about manifesting, including the heartbreak of dreams that fall apart and why rigid manifestation rules can do more harm than good. You’ll hear a deeply personal story about a dream home that became a cherished chapter instead of a forever, and discover the four things Sheila believes actually move dreams forward: energy, effort, mystery, and timing. This conversation is for anyone who feels “behind” or worries they’re doing it wrong. You’ll leave with a fresh perspective, relief, and a renewed belief that you’re right on time.
