Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey there and welcome back to the Live Life
Unapologetically podcast.
I am Shannon and I am excitedfor today's episode because
we're talking about somethingthat can truly change the way
that you think about how youmanifest, and that's manifesting
without boundaries.
Let me ask you this what wouldyou ask for if there were no
limits, If fear of judgment orpracticality weren't holding you
(00:22):
back?
What would your desires looklike?
Are you shrinking your dreamsto fit into what's realistic or
reasonable?
If those questions hit home,you're in the right place,
because today we're going tobreak down why we impose limits
on our desires, how this blocksour manifestations and, most
importantly, how you can startmanifesting with limitless
(00:43):
potential.
So grab your favorite drink,cozy up and let's dive into how
to free your desires, expandyour vision and align with the
infinite possibilities that theuniverse has to offer.
First, let's talk about why weput boundaries on our desires in
the first place.
Self-doubt that's a huge one,especially for us women.
You might find yourselfthinking who am I to ask for
(01:11):
that, or is that too big for me?
Self-doubt makes you shrinkyour desires to what feels
achievable or safe.
Maybe you grew up thinking youneeded to find that secure,
stable, steady job and it keptyou from what you were truly
passionate about, because maybethe industry that you're
passionate about isn't so stable, Maybe it's more artistic,
creative or ever-changing.
(01:31):
So you shrunk your desires towhat felt safe or achievable,
because that's what you weretold.
You doubted if you could makeit through an industry that
doesn't seem secure in the eyesof society.
That goes right into number twoof societal programming.
And this and I tell you guys,it's especially true for women,
(01:53):
because we are taught to playsmall, to be grateful for what
we have, to not be too much.
We internalize messages aboutbeing selfless, giving to others
or being realistic.
Think about this even whenyou're thinking about
relationships and people saywell, you have to be realistic
and you have to make somecompromises and you're just
(02:15):
settling.
So much messaging for women isjust settling, because it seems
like if you ask for the world,you're asking for too much, but
those beliefs keep you boxed in.
Then there's the fear offailure or disappointment.
It's scary to dream big becausethe bigger the dream, the
(02:38):
bigger the potential fordisappointment.
That goes right back to tellingourselves what is safe?
It's safer to want less.
This is less of a risk.
This is me not putting myselfout there so much that the
disappointment is going to be sobig.
When I started my manifestingcoaching business, I felt the
same way.
I came from the publiceducation sector.
(02:59):
I was in private and publiceducation for 15 years, a large
part of my life.
Many of the things that I didand the networks that I had
didn't align with what I do now,which is manifest the life that
I want and help other women tofeel empowered to manifest the
life that they want.
That just wasn't the culture.
(03:20):
I feared so many things.
I feared being disappointed.
I feared losing certainnetworks of people.
But in the end you have tofollow what you're passionate
about and dream big.
The next one is unworthiness.
You don't feel worthy toreceive abundance, to receive
those desires.
You're going to limit what youask for.
(03:41):
Your desires reflect what youdo believe you deserve.
Let's talk about careers, let'stalk about promotions, let's
talk about getting that money.
How often are we told that youhave to be perfect, know all of
the things before you can stepout there, that you have to
build your way up?
I know so many women startingbusinesses right now and what do
(04:04):
they say about business?
Oh well, you know you neverturn a profit until like year
five.
You know it takes five goodyears to build up a business.
That's so practical.
And so we dream small inbuilding business.
We say, OK, well, if I can justdo this one little thing this
year, because we limit ourselvesbased on worthiness.
(04:25):
Well, I'm not worthy to have asuccessful business right out
the gate because everybody elsehas to wait and do X, Y and Z.
So we limit what we ask for.
Why can't you come out the gatewith a business that turns a
profit in a year, in six months,that just blows the fuck up?
Because you're manifesting thatthat is your desire.
You don't want to wait fiveyears.
(04:46):
You have something in you nowthat needs to be shared with the
world.
What are we waiting for, basedon how we feel worthy?
Well, I don't feel worthy ofbeing that successful.
Yet I have to prove myself.
The problem with all this is,when we're imposing boundaries
on our desires, we're signalingto the universe that we're not
fully open to receiving.
(05:06):
You're trying to manifestwithin limits when the universe
is limitless.
Manifestation is aboutalignment.
It's about aligning yourthoughts, your feelings, your
actions with what you want toattract.
When you limit your desires,you're not in alignment with the
expansive energy of theuniverse.
Instead, you're creatingresistance, because you know
(05:29):
what you really want, but youdoubt yourself.
So you tell the universe Idon't believe I can have this or
I don't believe I can have it.
Yet when you play small, youthink well, I'm not deserving of
more, I'm not worthy of more.
I have to work my way up, Ihave to earn my stripes.
When you fear disappointment,you're signaling I'm not ready
to receive this at all.
(05:49):
I'm blocking it because I'm noteven open to it, because I fear
it.
Those boundaries block the flowof abundance.
Manifesting works best whenyou're open to the endless
possibilities, not when you'retrying to control or restrict
what you can receive, whatyou're worthy of, what you can
have.
Let's just look at it this way.
You know, if you're trying tofill up a cup and then you put a
(06:11):
lid on it, you can't putanything else in the cup.
When you remove the lid, youcan't put anything else in the
cup.
When you remove the lid, whenyou let go of that boundary, you
open yourself up to being ableto limitlessly fill the cup.
Yes, I said limitlessly fillthe cup, Because you don't have
to stop when the cup is full.
You can continue to pour intothe cup.
It doesn't matter if it spillsover.
(06:31):
As a matter of fact, limitlessabundance means having stuff
spill over Because it islimitless.
I want to clear up somethingvery big today, especially when
it comes to money, because thisis such a big misconception.
It's such a big block of how weapproach manifesting money or
(06:51):
desires that have to do withwealth, business, career, going
up, those type dreams.
And that's goals versus desires, because they're not the same
thing.
Goals are structured, oftenwith timelines, steps,
measurable outcomes.
They have boundaries.
Desires are expansive.
(07:13):
They're about the essence ofwhat you want, not the detailed
steps on how to get there.
So there's a great bigdifference between goals and
desires.
And, be honest, I see somemanifesting coaches out there
that are literally just teachingyou how to goal set.
They're teaching you strategy.
They're teaching you the how toone, two, three of reaching a
(07:37):
goal, where you're givingyourself timelines, where you're
giving yourself steps andyou're planning it out.
I believe in strategy.
I believe it's 80 percentmindset, 20 percent strategy.
There needs to be strategy, butstrategy is not manifesting.
They're two separate things andwe have to look at them for
(07:57):
what they are.
Your desires are expansive.
You can have goals and you cansay I want to do this.
So if you have a goal to starta business, obviously there's
strategy there.
You know what you want toprovide to the world.
You know what you want to sellin your business.
You know what you want to giveand you have to set up systems
and structures to deliver onthat.
So that's the goal part, that'sthe 20% part.
(08:19):
The 80% part the desire is whatyou want this to look like, how
you want it to feel.
I want to work four days a week, for five hours a day and still
be successful.
That's the desire.
And oh my gosh, I can see somepeople shrinking right now as
they're listening to this andsaying there is no way you can
have a successful business fourdays a week, five hours a day,
(08:39):
because that's just not how itworks.
You have to hustle and grindand always be on it, and I can
tell you that I know millionairebusiness owners, women
millionaire business owners.
Let me say that Women,billionaire or millionaire
business owners oh, I saidbillionaire, Freudian slip.
That means they're going to begoing up there Women billionaire
(09:00):
status.
They do that they started abusiness because they were tired
of the hustle and grind,because they had so much going
on and things to keep up with,that they wanted the freedom and
the money and the expansion,but they didn't want to add more
to their to-do list.
They structured their businessto work four days a week, five
hours a day and live their bestlife doing all the other things
(09:21):
that they wanted to do Workingout, traveling just what they
want to do, what brings them joyin their life.
That's what they did.
So they had their structure.
Obviously, they showed up Onethat I know.
She has timelines.
She plans out Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4.
(09:41):
But her mindset says anythingis possible, Like there's my
plan, Like I'm going to do thesethings, but her mindset is this
can expand beyond myimagination.
She has been able to connectwith networks that weren't on
the plan.
See the plan, the goals.
That's just.
This is my actions I'm taking,but the desires are expansive.
I'm open to all possibilities.
(10:03):
I can do this, but I'm open toall the possibilities and the
mindset that I am worthy.
I can receive.
I do deserve it.
You see, manifesting is aboutconnecting with your desires and
allowing the universe to handlethe how, when you focus just on
your goals and that's yourfocus, and every time you cross
(10:24):
off, oh yeah, I met that goal, Imet that benchmark.
You're just trying to controlthe process and then you're like
, oh yeah, I manifested becauseI reached the benchmark that I
set out for myself.
That's just strategy.
We can all reach strategy,we're all able to do that.
But see, when you're focusingon your desires, you're opening
yourself up to endless ways foryour desires to come to life.
So this millionaire businessowner that I know, once again,
(10:45):
she planned out her stuff, butshe got so many other
opportunities come her way thatshe couldn't even have fathomed
in 2024, which led her to awhole nother thing that she is
now generating income off of.
Because she was open, Like,okay, this is a goal, Like
here's my goal, but here'sreally truly my desire.
Let my desire come to me.
And those things that she couldnot checkmark or force herself
(11:07):
into.
She was just open to them.
So she focused on what shecould for her business, because
she runs a business.
Then she let everything elsejust come to her the way it
needed to come to her, the waythe universe said it could come
to her in a limitless way and ina way that felt good to her.
So when we are going to manifestwithout boundaries, we can't
(11:28):
lock ourselves in a box of smartgoals.
We have to have that mindset.
Here's the thing, that 20%strategy.
It really doesn't matter howmuch you work the strategy.
If you don't believe thestrategy is even going to work
for you, then it won't becauseyour mindset is blocking it
anyway.
I'm going to give you apersonal example of this.
I'm just going to be vulnerablewith you today.
I do my best social mediacontent on TikTok.
(11:49):
I get the most response fromTikTok.
It's TikTok On Instagram.
I just cannot seem to makeheadway.
I try so hard and with thelooming TikTok ban, we'll just
see how that goes.
I'm just, it is what it is.
I'm not worried about it, butI've been trying to grow on
Instagram even before that.
I've always struggled withInstagram.
But listen to my words, what Ijust said, I've always struggled
(12:11):
with Instagram.
I've never been good atInstagram and I was thinking
about this this morning when Iwas drinking my coffee.
I have employed and done thebest Instagram strategy.
I've worked with the bestInstagram marketing person and I
know the strategy works and howI know the strategy works is
because I employ it on TikTok aswell.
(12:32):
So I say that to say it's mythoughts and my feelings about
Instagram that is holding meback, it's not the strategy.
I'm doing the strategy great.
I have proof that the strategyworks because it works on
another platform.
This strategy wasn't evendeveloped for TikTok.
This strategy was specificallydeveloped for Instagram.
So if I could get the Instagramstrategy to work on TikTok but
(12:55):
not on Instagram itself, Where'sthe issue here?
And it is my feelings, mythoughts, how I feel about
Instagram, it's absolutely likemy mindset, like 100% it's my
mindset about Instagram.
I tell myself Instagram is sohard to grow on, Instagram is so
hard to get engagement onInstagram is just weird.
I don't know how I feel aboutInstagram.
I say these things to myself.
(13:15):
So you can have the goal, thestructure, the strategy, but
your mindset can definitely getin the way, and that's where the
difference is.
It happens to the best of us,so it's just something I have to
work on.
It's fine.
I don't feel bad about myself.
I want to put that in there too, as we're talking about this.
We're talking about all theselimitations and boundaries we
put on ourselves.
I don't want you to feel likeshit about it.
(13:36):
We do it.
We just learn how to overcomeit.
It's fine.
I didn't know how I would feelabout Instagram until I started
getting on Instagram.
I just have to reframe mymindset about it and it'll be
great.
And that's the work I need todo.
I'm okay with that.
So what work are we doing forour desires, our mindset,
because that's 80% of it.
(13:56):
You can have the best strategyin the world.
I have the best marketing coachBecause I run a business.
That's goal things, that'sstrategy things.
Hiring somebody who is an expertin marketing because I have a
business and so I hired theexpert and y'all.
When I learn from people, whenI tell you that I execute.
(14:18):
I am great at execution.
I will execute and I haveexecuted to a T.
It's my mindset and I don'tfeel bad about myself because of
it.
That's part of this manifestingprocess and it's part of the
worthiness process.
I'm not sitting here like, ohmy God, Shannon, what's wrong
with you?
And beating myself up about it.
It's fine, let's just work onthe mindset around it.
(14:40):
It's fine.
That's the difference betweengoals and desires.
So let's look at it this way Ifyour goal is to make $10,000
from your business in the nextthree months.
That's the goal.
I want to make $10,000 from mybusiness in the next three
months.
The desire truly is I want tofeel financially abundant and
supported by my business.
The desire allows for limitlessways for that abundance to come
(15:04):
to you.
The goal is helpful forplanning.
Once again, you cannot trulyreach your goals without the
mindset and belief that it'spossible.
And that's the desire, that'sthe manifestation.
So how do you start manifestingwithout limit?
Well, let me give you some tipsto free your desires and to
align with the infinitepossibilities that the universe
(15:24):
has for you.
The first thing I want you todo is expand your vision.
Take a desire you have and askyourself how can I expand this
If there were no limits?
What's the biggest, mostexciting version of this desire?
Write it down and seal into itand let yourself dream as big as
you can.
And then I want you to identifyand release limiting beliefs.
(15:45):
Notice what thoughts come upwhen you expand your desires.
Is there a voice saying that'stoo much, you don't deserve that
?
Or, in my case, it's just sohard for people to grow on
Instagram these days.
Instagram doesn't like me and Idon't like Instagram
Acknowledge the beliefs and thenreplace them with empowering
ones.
So I could tell myself if I cangrow on TikTok, I can grow on
(16:06):
Instagram.
There's no difference.
If I can reach and empowerpeople on one platform, I can
reach and empower people onanother platform.
I'm worthy of this limitlessabundance.
I know that I have a messagethat's going to empower and lift
up women and the universe ismaking room for it.
Then I want you to feel thelimitlessness.
I want you to visualize yourdesire with no restriction.
(16:26):
Imagine it coming to life withthe most incredible and
unexpected things.
Feel the emotions and the joyand the freedom and the
excitement like it's alreadyhappening.
It's happened and I need you toget out of your comfort zone,
because manifesting withoutboundaries means being open to
the unknown, means followingyour intuition when it leads you
(16:48):
beyond what feels familiar orsafe.
If you're not sure how to trustyour intuition, there is an
episode a few episodes back onintuition.
Specifically intuition, Growthand abundance happen outside of
your comfort zone.
I'm way more comfortable justhitting record on a phone,
talking and posting it on TikTokthan I am on Instagram.
(17:12):
I have to get out of my owncomfort zone of familiarity with
one platform over another.
That's moving out of my comfortzone.
I think a lot of times we thinkmoving out of our comfort zones
.
Are these really big, traumaticthings?
It's not.
It could be as simple as I'mvery comfortable with this
platform, but I need to learn anew platform.
(17:32):
I'm just learning something new.
I just don't know anythingabout it.
So it isn't comfortable becauseI'm not familiar.
And then you need to trust theuniverse, Surrender how it's
going to happen and trust theuniverse is going to work on
your behalf.
So remind yourself that you'reopen to receiving in the best
and most beautiful way possible.
So for me, I'm just going tohave to surrender the how Like
(17:54):
I'm going to implement thestrategy I'm going to take
aligned action.
As part of aligned action andinspired action is I have to
actually show up and post onInstagram and I'm going to use
the strategy that I've learnedfrom this master marketer.
Then I'm going to be open tothe people that the universe
brings to me, that I know thatthe universe is going to bring
me aligned people.
(18:14):
I'm going to be open to thatand I'm not going to be scared
to get DMs and I'm not going tobe feeling weird about
commenting back.
It's easier for me to talk backin a video I think you can
actually do that on Instagramnow but it's hard for me to text
things out.
I'm a long-winded person.
That's fine, but I can learn.
I'm open to that and I'm justopen to the universe leading me.
Now, the heart of manifestingwithout boundaries is going to
(18:37):
be your self-worth.
You have to believe that youare worthy of the limitless
abundance.
If you're struggling withfeelings of unworthiness, I want
you to know this your desiresare valid.
You do not have to justifywanting more, and abundance is
your birthright.
Now this is something that Iwork on with my clients in my
Manifest she coaching program.

It doesn't matter if it spillsover.
(06:31):
As a matter of fact, limitlessabundance means having stuff
spill over Because it islimitless.
I want to clear up somethingvery big today, especially when
it comes to money, because thisis such a big misconception.
It's such a big block of how weapproach manifesting money or
(06:51):
desires that have to do withwealth, business, career, going
up, those type dreams.
And that's goals versus desires, because they're not the same
thing.
Goals are structured, oftenwith timelines, steps,
measurable outcomes.
They have boundaries.
Desires are expansive.
(07:13):
They're about the essence ofwhat you want, not the detailed
steps on how to get there.
So there's a great bigdifference between goals and
desires.
And, be honest, I see somemanifesting coaches out there
that are literally just teachingyou how to goal set.
They're teaching you strategy.
They're teaching you the how toone, two, three of reaching a
(07:37):
goal, where you're givingyourself timelines, where you're
giving yourself steps andyou're planning it out.
I believe in strategy.
I believe it's 80 percentmindset, 20 percent strategy.
There needs to be strategy, butstrategy is not manifesting.
They're two separate things andwe have to look at them for
(07:57):
what they are.
Your desires are expansive.
You can have goals and you cansay I want to do this.
So if you have a goal to starta business, obviously there's
strategy there.
You know what you want toprovide to the world.
You know what you want to sellin your business.
You know what you want to giveand you have to set up systems
and structures to deliver onthat.
So that's the goal part, that'sthe 20% part.
(08:19):
The 80% part the desire is whatyou want this to look like, how
you want it to feel.
I want to work four days a week, for five hours a day and still
be successful.
That's the desire.
And oh my gosh, I can see somepeople shrinking right now as
they're listening to this andsaying there is no way you can
have a successful business fourdays a week, five hours a day,
(08:39):
because that's just not how itworks.
You have to hustle and grindand always be on it, and I can
tell you that I know millionairebusiness owners, women
millionaire business owners.
Let me say that Women,billionaire or millionaire
business owners oh, I saidbillionaire, Freudian slip.
That means they're going to begoing up there Women billionaire
(09:00):
status.
They do that they started abusiness because they were tired
of the hustle and grind,because they had so much going
on and things to keep up with,that they wanted the freedom and
the money and the expansion,but they didn't want to add more
to their to-do list.
They structured their businessto work four days a week, five
hours a day and live their bestlife doing all the other things
(09:21):
that they wanted to do Workingout, traveling just what they
want to do, what brings them joyin their life.
That's what they did.
So they had their structure.
Obviously, they showed up Onethat I know.
She has timelines.
She plans out Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4.
(09:41):
But her mindset says anythingis possible, Like there's my
plan, Like I'm going to do thesethings, but her mindset is this
can expand beyond myimagination.
She has been able to connectwith networks that weren't on
the plan.
See the plan, the goals.
That's just.
This is my actions I'm taking,but the desires are expansive.
I'm open to all possibilities.
(10:03):
I can do this, but I'm open toall the possibilities and the
mindset that I am worthy.
I can receive.
I do deserve it.
You see, manifesting is aboutconnecting with your desires and
allowing the universe to handlethe how, when you focus just on
your goals and that's yourfocus, and every time you cross
(10:24):
off, oh yeah, I met that goal, Imet that benchmark.
You're just trying to controlthe process and then you're like
, oh yeah, I manifested becauseI reached the benchmark that I
set out for myself.
That's just strategy.
We can all reach strategy,we're all able to do that.
But see, when you're focusingon your desires, you're opening
yourself up to endless ways foryour desires to come to life.
So this millionaire businessowner that I know, once again,
(10:45):
she planned out her stuff, butshe got so many other
opportunities come her way thatshe couldn't even have fathomed
in 2024, which led her to awhole nother thing that she is
now generating income off of.
Because she was open, Like,okay, this is a goal, Like
here's my goal, but here'sreally truly my desire.
Let my desire come to me.
And those things that she couldnot checkmark or force herself
(11:07):
into.
She was just open to them.
So she focused on what shecould for her business, because
she runs a business.
Then she let everything elsejust come to her the way it
needed to come to her, the waythe universe said it could come
to her in a limitless way and ina way that felt good to her.
So when we are going to manifestwithout boundaries, we can't
(11:28):
lock ourselves in a box of smartgoals.
We have to have that mindset.
Here's the thing, that 20%strategy.
It really doesn't matter howmuch you work the strategy.
If you don't believe thestrategy is even going to work
for you, then it won't becauseyour mindset is blocking it
anyway.
I'm going to give you apersonal example of this.
I'm just going to be vulnerablewith you today.
I do my best social mediacontent on TikTok.
(11:49):
I get the most response fromTikTok.
It's TikTok On Instagram.
I just cannot seem to makeheadway.
I try so hard and with thelooming TikTok ban, we'll just
see how that goes.
I'm just, it is what it is.
I'm not worried about it, butI've been trying to grow on
Instagram even before that.
I've always struggled withInstagram.
But listen to my words, what Ijust said, I've always struggled
(12:11):
with Instagram.
I've never been good atInstagram and I was thinking
about this this morning when Iwas drinking my coffee.
I have employed and done thebest Instagram strategy.
I've worked with the bestInstagram marketing person and I
know the strategy works and howI know the strategy works is
because I employ it on TikTok aswell.
(12:32):
So I say that to say it's mythoughts and my feelings about
Instagram that is holding meback, it's not the strategy.
I'm doing the strategy great.
I have proof that the strategyworks because it works on
another platform.
This strategy wasn't evendeveloped for TikTok.
This strategy was specificallydeveloped for Instagram.
So if I could get the Instagramstrategy to work on TikTok but
(12:55):
not on Instagram itself, Where'sthe issue here?
And it is my feelings, mythoughts, how I feel about
Instagram, it's absolutely likemy mindset, like 100% it's my
mindset about Instagram.
I tell myself Instagram is sohard to grow on, Instagram is so
hard to get engagement onInstagram is just weird.
I don't know how I feel aboutInstagram.
I say these things to myself.
(13:15):
So you can have the goal, thestructure, the strategy, but
your mindset can definitely getin the way, and that's where the
difference is.
It happens to the best of us,so it's just something I have to
work on.
It's fine.
I don't feel bad about myself.
I want to put that in there too, as we're talking about this.
We're talking about all theselimitations and boundaries we
put on ourselves.
I don't want you to feel likeshit about it.
(13:36):
We do it.
We just learn how to overcomeit.
It's fine.
I didn't know how I would feelabout Instagram until I started
getting on Instagram.
I just have to reframe mymindset about it and it'll be
great.
And that's the work I need todo.
I'm okay with that.
So what work are we doing forour desires, our mindset,
because that's 80% of it.
(13:56):
You can have the best strategyin the world.
I have the best marketing coachBecause I run a business.
That's goal things, that'sstrategy things.
Hiring somebody who is an expertin marketing because I have a
business and so I hired theexpert and y'all.
When I learn from people, whenI tell you that I execute.
(14:18):
I am great at execution.
I will execute and I haveexecuted to a T.
It's my mindset and I don'tfeel bad about myself because of
it.
That's part of this manifestingprocess and it's part of the
worthiness process.
I'm not sitting here like, ohmy God, Shannon, what's wrong
with you?
And beating myself up about it.
It's fine, let's just work onthe mindset around it.
(14:40):
It's fine.
That's the difference betweengoals and desires.
So let's look at it this way Ifyour goal is to make $10,000
from your business in the nextthree months.
That's the goal.
I want to make $10,000 from mybusiness in the next three
months.
The desire truly is I want tofeel financially abundant and
supported by my business.
The desire allows for limitlessways for that abundance to come
(15:04):
to you.
The goal is helpful forplanning.
Once again, you cannot trulyreach your goals without the
mindset and belief that it'spossible.
And that's the desire, that'sthe manifestation.
So how do you start manifestingwithout limit?
Well, let me give you some tipsto free your desires and to
align with the infinitepossibilities that the universe
(15:24):
has for you.
The first thing I want you todo is expand your vision.
Take a desire you have and askyourself how can I expand this
If there were no limits?
What's the biggest, mostexciting version of this desire?
Write it down and seal into itand let yourself dream as big as
you can.
And then I want you to identifyand release limiting beliefs.
(15:45):
Notice what thoughts come upwhen you expand your desires.
Is there a voice saying that'stoo much, you don't deserve that
?
Or, in my case, it's just sohard for people to grow on
Instagram these days.
Instagram doesn't like me and Idon't like Instagram
Acknowledge the beliefs and thenreplace them with empowering
ones.
So I could tell myself if I cangrow on TikTok, I can grow on
(16:06):
Instagram.
There's no difference.
If I can reach and empowerpeople on one platform, I can
reach and empower people onanother platform.
I'm worthy of this limitlessabundance.
I know that I have a messagethat's going to empower and lift
up women and the universe ismaking room for it.
Then I want you to feel thelimitlessness.
I want you to visualize yourdesire with no restriction.
(16:26):
Imagine it coming to life withthe most incredible and
unexpected things.
Feel the emotions and the joyand the freedom and the
excitement like it's alreadyhappening.
It's happened and I need you toget out of your comfort zone,
because manifesting withoutboundaries means being open to
the unknown, means followingyour intuition when it leads you
(16:48):
beyond what feels familiar orsafe.
If you're not sure how to trustyour intuition, there is an
episode a few episodes back onintuition.
Specifically intuition, Growthand abundance happen outside of
your comfort zone.
I'm way more comfortable justhitting record on a phone,
talking and posting it on TikTokthan I am on Instagram.
(17:12):
I have to get out of my owncomfort zone of familiarity with
one platform over another.
That's moving out of my comfortzone.
I think a lot of times we thinkmoving out of our comfort zones
.
Are these really big, traumaticthings?
It's not.
It could be as simple as I'mvery comfortable with this
platform, but I need to learn anew platform.
(17:32):
I'm just learning something new.
I just don't know anythingabout it.
So it isn't comfortable becauseI'm not familiar.
And then you need to trust theuniverse, Surrender how it's
going to happen and trust theuniverse is going to work on
your behalf.
So remind yourself that you'reopen to receiving in the best
and most beautiful way possible.
So for me, I'm just going tohave to surrender the how Like
(17:54):
I'm going to implement thestrategy I'm going to take
aligned action.
As part of aligned action andinspired action is I have to
actually show up and post onInstagram and I'm going to use
the strategy that I've learnedfrom this master marketer.
Then I'm going to be open tothe people that the universe
brings to me, that I know thatthe universe is going to bring
me aligned people.
(18:14):
I'm going to be open to thatand I'm not going to be scared
to get DMs and I'm not going tobe feeling weird about
commenting back.
It's easier for me to talk backin a video I think you can
actually do that on Instagramnow but it's hard for me to text
things out.
I'm a long-winded person.
That's fine, but I can learn.
I'm open to that and I'm justopen to the universe leading me.
Now, the heart of manifestingwithout boundaries is going to
(18:37):
be your self-worth.
You have to believe that youare worthy of the limitless
abundance.
If you're struggling withfeelings of unworthiness, I want
you to know this your desiresare valid.
You do not have to justifywanting more, and abundance is
your birthright.
Now this is something that Iwork on with my clients in my
Manifest she coaching program.
(18:57):
We release guilt, we break freefrom societal programming and
we reconnect with your limitlesspotential.
