What if your childhood dream really was your destiny all along? In this episode, we dive into how Ariana Grande didn’t just “get lucky” with Wicked—she manifested her role as Glinda over more than a decade.
From a ten-year-old theater kid in Boca Raton seeing Wicked on Broadway, to the 2011 tweet claiming Glinda as her dream role, to her “Glinda closet” of pink outfits and Olympic-level vocal training, Ariana’s journey is a masterclass in long-game manifestation and identity shifting.
We’ll explore how she:
• Declared her dream publicly and repeatedly
• “Acted as if” long before any audition existed
• Held the vision through years of delays and uncertainty
• Took aligned, no-excuses action when the opportunity finally appeared
If you’ve ever had a role, project, or life you know is meant for you, this episode will show you how to become the version of yourself who eventually hears, “Welcome to Wicked” in your own life
