Kerry (00:00):
Today is such a beautiful day.
Hello and welcome to theMelanin Unicorn podcast, a
weekly podcast that is dedicatedto the empowerment and
upliftment of black women.
If you are feeling stuck, I amgoing to help you get unstuck,
so you will no longer want tosit on the side of the road, but
(00:21):
instead, get up and startrunning towards your dreams and
goals in life.
Plus, we are going to hold eachother accountable.
My name is Carrie, and today'sepisode is all about manifesting
.
Let's start the show.
Thank you for tuning in to theMelanin Unicorn podcast.
(00:48):
Once again, my name is Kerry,I'm your host, and an episode is
dropped every week, once onMonday and once on Wednesday.
Mondays are your full episodes,Wednesdays are your shorter
episodes, which are called theBlack Woman Moment.
(01:09):
So today's show is all aboutmanifesting.
It's time to start manifestingNow.
Manifestation, manifesting,affirming, declaring, decreeing,
persisting tends to get a lotof flack, especially from the
(01:32):
Christian community, but if theyknew their Bibles, they would
see that there was a whole lotof manifesting going on.
And I didn't realize it, youknow, because my thoughts
(01:55):
regarding manifesting wereskewed right, because it was
viewed as witchcraft.
And the truth of the matter ismanifesting started from the
beginning, and manifesting comesfrom speaking what you want,
(02:19):
affirming what you want,declaring what you want,
decreeing what you want, andpersisting in what you want.
So dictionary-com gives thisdefinition for manifestation as
(02:41):
the conscious creation of thecircumstances and outcomes that
make for a fulfilling life.
This definition allows us torely on both science-based and
spiritual practices, which canreally help us when we're trying
to figure out how to manifestwhat we want in life.
(03:03):
Now, manifesting can come about, like anyone can manifest, but
what I've learned aboutmanifesting is that if you don't
create a new story aboutyourself, yes, you'll get your
(03:26):
manifestations, but if yourinternal story doesn't change,
what you will find is, yes, youhave the manifestation, but yes,
you also have the old story.
So if your old story consistedof pain, hurt, bitterness,
(03:50):
resentment, although you haveyour manifestations, you still
will not be happy.
So what is a new story?
The new story is the thoughtswe have help create the life we
experience.
The stories we have beentelling ourselves about our
(04:14):
lives can be changed with a setof new thoughts and new beliefs.
Beware, however, that thoughtprocess is from birth until now.
Don't cease to exist in a day.
Thoughts process that weheavily identify with don't
(04:37):
cease to exist in a day.
So I said that twice becauseobviously that is important
Thought processes that createour, that create our constructed
identity don't cease to existin a day.
Three times you will need tobegin writing a new story for
(05:08):
yourself in order to change yourold story that you've been
telling and living for years.
So I repeated that three timesbecause what happens in
(05:29):
manifestations especially withall the chatter about it and
when you read other people'spose and then look, oh, I
manifested this in a day, Imanifested this in three days is
very possible.
There is truth and there isreality to it.
(05:49):
But understand that work has tobe done in order to manifest
those things that you aredesiring, and the change of your
subconscious has.
It has to start there.
It has to start there.
The subconscious getseverything that we do in our
(06:15):
daily lives Right.
So, whatever you've been doing,however you've been living,
what you've been saying, all ofthat is stored in the
subconscious and, like I said inanother episode, the
subconscious doesn't know if itis truth or fiction.
(06:36):
It just knows and is going bywhat you are doing day to day.
So in order to change that, youhave to change your thoughts,
your habits each and every day,and it is an ongoing process
(07:01):
until you are at that pointwhere oh my gosh, that's what
you'll say to yourself oh mygosh, I am truly changed.
As many of you have seen overthe years, manifestation
continues to be a hot topic,right?
(07:21):
So before we begin, let me beclear.
I have never read the book theSecret, and I honestly have no
plans to.
Just because I'm not interestedin it doesn't mean you aren't
either.
So you may very well beinterested in reading the Secret
(07:43):
.
I personally am not, but I willput a link to the book in the
show notes if you are interestedin purchasing.
I will also put in the shownotes the books that I have read
that were recommended to me andalso helped me to learn more
about manifesting and how toactivate it in my own life.
(08:06):
Now, as I read the definition,this word is either received
well or frowned upon, dependingon which way you've heard it.
It will definitely cause areaction from you, but please
believe I'm not here to arguewith you about it, okay?
So, like this one podcast thatI listened to, she always says
(08:31):
you are powerful to disagree, soyou don't have to agree with
what I'm saying Do your ownresearch.
You know, that's what I did andin my own research I was led to
people who are in themanifestation community, but it
is actually being taughtcorrectly.
(08:53):
So this quote from Madame CJWalker says don't sit down and
wait for the opportunities tocome.
Get up and make them.
So in your affirming, declaringdecree and persisting, you are
(09:16):
manifesting a new life.
There is no giving up On myself.
There is no giving up onyourself.
No is not an answer to what Iam manifesting.
So that's first and foremostFailure is just a redirection.
(09:40):
This is why I'm writing my newstory and it is a must.
And if you are tired and Idon't mean just tired, I mean
you are sick and tired of beingsick and tired of your day in
and day out mundane life thathas become robotic, just moving
(10:00):
on autopilot then, my sister, itis time for a change your heart
is so desperately seeking.
Now, as I said before,manifesting will not be easy,
regardless as to what you'veseen on YouTube, on blogs,
(10:22):
quotes, books, magazines, etc.
You will have to put in thework.
You will have to retrain howyou think about yourself in your
mind, how you speak to yourselfand how you treat yourself.
You will have to start writingit down Now.
(10:43):
You know I am a big proponenton writing and, as I said before
, if you don't want to write,you can do voice recordings on
your phone.
That's perfectly fine as well.
Now, for those who are writerslike myself, there is no need to
(11:05):
buy some expensive journal ornotebook for it to only sit on
your shelf or it now resides inyour closet.
A plain journal is all you needto begin.
If you have lived with the samestory about yourself for years
(11:27):
upon years, writing a new storywill take time to train your
brain, especially yoursubconscious, because this is
where manifestation takes place.
So if you talk down to yourself, then that is what your
subconscious will manifest foryou.
(11:48):
It only gives you what you askfor.
You want the life that you'vealways dreamed for yourself.
That journal will help you withthat from writing your new
story, cutting out pictures,pasting them in your book,
meditating, removing people andthings that are in your old
(12:14):
story.
And I am a huge, huge proponentof that, because sometimes we
stay stuck because we keepsurrounding ourselves with the
same people, the samecircumstances, the same talk,
the same things you're watchingon television, the same things
(12:37):
that you are listening to on theradio, the same things that you
are just again looking at onsocial media.
You will need to search for truemethods that will help you.
Remember there's a lot ofnonsense on the internet.
(12:59):
Pray for your discernment andfinding the good information and
videos that are out there.
You will definitely find it.
Once your mind is open to thechanges you want in your life,
it will be led straight to you.
Again, be open, do yourresearch, pray for discernment,
(13:30):
pray to be led to the rightpeople because, again, there's a
lot of stuff out there that iscrazy.
I'm just going to say that it'scrazy, and a lot of people are
out there talking aboutmanifesting and things of that
(13:51):
nature and they have no ideawhat they're talking about.
They have no idea and they aregiven wrong information.
They have amassed a hugefollowing, especially on social
media, because people aredesperate for change in their
(14:13):
lives.
So they will click on videosand watch them and things like
that, and unfortunately, noteverybody is for your good.
For a number of people, it'sall about a paycheck.
(14:34):
It's all about what they'regetting paid from these social
media platforms.
That's why I am adamant aboutpraying for discernment, being
led to the right person, people,etc.
Everyone will not get it or evenunderstand.
(14:56):
Everyone will not be on boardabout your desire to change your
life with manifesting, andthat's okay.
That is perfectly fine, becauseit's not about them, it is
about you.
It's and it's not yourresponsibility to make them
understand.
Like I always say, what peoplethink about me, that's not my
(15:20):
business and I don't care.
I'm doing what I believe isbest for me.
So I have no time to worryabout what others may think or
(15:40):
say.
I've lived in that place forquite some time.
I don't live there anymore.
I do not live there anymoreDepending on your old story.
Moving in silence is the bestoption when you are writing your
new story.
That is key because, again,everybody won't understand,
(16:05):
right, and they just won't.
And sometimes, when you sharethat you are looking to change
and you are looking toincorporate new methods into
your life, you'll be met withnaysayers, especially people who
they themselves are not readyfor change, right?
(16:29):
So when people are not readyfor change, they don't want you
to change.
So that's why moving in silenceis key.
Moving silence People don'tneed to know your business If
your old story is toxic, meaningfamily, friends, your job.
(16:49):
This is even more crucial foryour new story to be written.
It's time for you to get outthere and start living your life
abundantly.
And again it starts.
And I know I keep saying newstory, new story, new story.
But that is key.
That is key your story has tobe new.
(17:14):
You cannot, you cannot moveinto the things that you want
for yourself, you desire foryourself, and you still have
your old story.
Because again, you can manifestwith your old story.
You can manifest with your oldstory, but what will happen is
(17:35):
this it will carry over intoyour manifestations and then you
will be wondering well, okay, Igot what I was manifesting, but
why do I still feel like a mess?
Because your subconscious isgiving you what you have always
(18:00):
given it.
You have not chosen to writethat new story about yourself.
An example of a new story isthis I am an amazing woman, I am
beautiful, I am kind, I amabundant, I am prosperous, I am
(18:24):
healthy, I am loved, I am in aloving relationship, I am not in
debt, I am a blessing to myself, I am a blessing to others.
Everything is always workingout in my favor, Everything is
(18:46):
always working out for me,everything is always working out
for me.
Okay.
So you see how I started sayingone thing and then it just
began to build and build andbuild.
That's what I mean when I saywriting a new story about
(19:06):
yourself.
So if your old story was justlike oh, I'm just so tired of
being broke, I'm just so tiredof being sick, I'm just so tired
of being in this toxicrelationship, I'm just so tired
of this toxic job, I hate thisand I hate that, I hate that and
I hate this.
(19:26):
You see the difference.
So when you say those things,right, this is what goes into
your subconscious.
And because this is what youdwell on, your subconscious
gives you more of that.
But when you change a story andyou're saying I'm the baddest
(19:47):
chick, okay, I am amazing, I ambeautiful, I am a successful
entrepreneur, I am a successfulserial entrepreneur, I'm a
multi-millionaire, you see whereit goes?
It just keeps going.
It just keeps going and it justkeeps going.
(20:08):
That's how you begin to rewireand change your subconscious.
And also, listening toaffirmations, right, listen to
affirmations as you're fallingasleep at night, seeing
affirmations in the mirror whileyou face yourself or if, for
(20:33):
whatever reason you feel likelooking yourself in the eye
saying affirmations.
That's a little too much foryou at the moment.
That's fine, that's fine.
Say affirmation, say kindthings to yourself.
And if you know what to say orwhat to write, you look online
(20:58):
and there are plenty ofaffirmations, plenty of
affirmations.
Put those affirmations in yournotes on your phone and, as you
go out throughout your day, openup your phone, open up that
note app and start reading offyour affirmations to yourself.
(21:21):
You will see that, little bylittle, your speech, the way you
move, the way you go about yourday, the way you're going about
(21:43):
your life, it begins to change.
And at first you may not evenrealize it.
But let me tell you who's goingto realize it?
Other people, people you workwith, your family members, your
friends, associates.
(22:04):
They will begin to see and theywill begin to hear because your
speech is changing Again.
I know about moving in silence,because this is what I've been
doing in my life and manifestingmy new life for myself.
(22:28):
You know I didn't feel a needto get on the phone telling
everybody oh, you know, I'mmanifesting this new life.
This is not because I know that.
You know some of my friends.
They're just not there, Rightand so, and that's fine, that's
(22:50):
fine.
But I know that they'll getthere eventually because they'll
see how my life is changing andthen they'll ask questions and
I will be all too happy to letthem know what I am doing and
how I am doing it.
But in the meantime, I'm movingin silence.
(23:15):
I'm moving in silence is me andthe Lord moving in, and my
routine is at night.
I fall asleep listening to Askformations After I've done my
(23:42):
prayer.
I'm Lord and I were talking,you know, and I'm journaling.
Scripting, which is anotherthing.
In the manifestation life, youcan write out your life and with
scripting, you are not writing.
(24:03):
Oh, you know, I wish I can dothis.
I want to have this.
No scripting is you are writingas if it is already happening
in your life, right?
So if you are desiring a newjob, you are writing.
(24:31):
My new job is so amazing.
It is wonderful.
My new job has given me so manyblessed opportunities.
My salary is six figures.
My new boss is amazing.
My new coworkers are amazing.
(24:52):
If you are desiring to workremotely, my new job is 100%
remote.
There is no hybrid.
There is no coming into officeeven once a week.
No, I am home 100%.
If you're desiring a marriage,my marriage is so beautiful, it
(25:12):
is just so full of love.
We love each other, we aremadly in love and we just have
the most amazing union.
God has truly blessed me, yousee, you see how that goes.
So when you are scripting,you're not saying, oh, I'm
desiring marriage and I ampatiently waiting.
(25:36):
No, you are speaking that thingas if you are already in it.
And those are just two examples, because whatever it is that
you are desiring to manifest inyour life, you write as if those
things are happening right now.
Okay, so keep in mind, itdoesn't happen overnight.
(26:06):
Although manifesting is aboutturning your dreams into reality
, it does require you to takeproactive steps toward whatever
it is you desire.
(26:27):
So today's inspiring quote comesfrom none other than our
forever First Lady, michelleObama.
First Lady Michelle LeVonRobison Obama is a lawyer,
writer and the wife of the 44thPresident, barack Obama.
(26:49):
She is the first AfricanAmerican First Lady of the
United States.
Through her four maininitiatives, she became a role
model for women and an advocatefor healthy families, service
members and their families,higher education and
international adolescent girlseducation.
(27:09):
And here is what she has had tosay.
One of the lessons I grew upwith was to always stay true to
yourself and never let whatsomebody says distract you from
your goals.
I thought that was so perfectbecause in manifesting, that's
(27:35):
what I was saying.
You know, sometimes people willget what it is that you're
doing and other times peoplewill not.
So, in order to not bedistracted, sometimes you're
going to move in silence, andthat's okay.
Right, that is perfectly okay.
(27:57):

pray to be led to the rightpeople because, again, there's a
lot of stuff out there that iscrazy.
I'm just going to say that it'scrazy, and a lot of people are
out there talking aboutmanifesting and things of that
(13:51):
nature and they have no ideawhat they're talking about.
They have no idea and they aregiven wrong information.
They have amassed a hugefollowing, especially on social
media, because people aredesperate for change in their
(14:13):
lives.
So they will click on videosand watch them and things like
that, and unfortunately, noteverybody is for your good.
For a number of people, it'sall about a paycheck.
(14:34):
It's all about what they'regetting paid from these social
media platforms.
That's why I am adamant aboutpraying for discernment, being
led to the right person, people,etc.
Everyone will not get it or evenunderstand.
(14:56):
Everyone will not be on boardabout your desire to change your
life with manifesting, andthat's okay.
That is perfectly fine, becauseit's not about them, it is
about you.
It's and it's not yourresponsibility to make them
understand.
Like I always say, what peoplethink about me, that's not my
(15:20):
business and I don't care.
I'm doing what I believe isbest for me.
So I have no time to worryabout what others may think or
(15:40):
say.
I've lived in that place forquite some time.
I don't live there anymore.
I do not live there anymoreDepending on your old story.
Moving in silence is the bestoption when you are writing your
new story.
That is key because, again,everybody won't understand,
(16:05):
right, and they just won't.
And sometimes, when you sharethat you are looking to change
and you are looking toincorporate new methods into
your life, you'll be met withnaysayers, especially people who
they themselves are not readyfor change, right?
(16:29):
So when people are not readyfor change, they don't want you
to change.
So that's why moving in silenceis key.
Moving silence People don'tneed to know your business If
your old story is toxic, meaningfamily, friends, your job.
(16:49):
This is even more crucial foryour new story to be written.
It's time for you to get outthere and start living your life
abundantly.
And again it starts.
And I know I keep saying newstory, new story, new story.
But that is key.
That is key your story has tobe new.
(17:14):
You cannot, you cannot moveinto the things that you want
for yourself, you desire foryourself, and you still have
your old story.
Because again, you can manifestwith your old story.
You can manifest with your oldstory, but what will happen is
(17:35):
this it will carry over intoyour manifestations and then you
will be wondering well, okay, Igot what I was manifesting, but
why do I still feel like a mess?
Because your subconscious isgiving you what you have always
(18:00):
given it.
You have not chosen to writethat new story about yourself.
An example of a new story isthis I am an amazing woman, I am
beautiful, I am kind, I amabundant, I am prosperous, I am
(18:24):
healthy, I am loved, I am in aloving relationship, I am not in
debt, I am a blessing to myself, I am a blessing to others.
Everything is always workingout in my favor, Everything is
(18:46):
always working out for me,everything is always working out
for me.
Okay.
So you see how I started sayingone thing and then it just
began to build and build andbuild.
That's what I mean when I saywriting a new story about
(19:06):
yourself.
So if your old story was justlike oh, I'm just so tired of
being broke, I'm just so tiredof being sick, I'm just so tired
of being in this toxicrelationship, I'm just so tired
of this toxic job, I hate thisand I hate that, I hate that and
I hate this.
(19:26):
You see the difference.
So when you say those things,right, this is what goes into
your subconscious.
And because this is what youdwell on, your subconscious
gives you more of that.
But when you change a story andyou're saying I'm the baddest
(19:47):
chick, okay, I am amazing, I ambeautiful, I am a successful
entrepreneur, I am a successfulserial entrepreneur, I'm a
multi-millionaire, you see whereit goes?
It just keeps going.
It just keeps going and it justkeeps going.
(20:08):
That's how you begin to rewireand change your subconscious.
And also, listening toaffirmations, right, listen to
affirmations as you're fallingasleep at night, seeing
affirmations in the mirror whileyou face yourself or if, for
(20:33):
whatever reason you feel likelooking yourself in the eye
saying affirmations.
That's a little too much foryou at the moment.
That's fine, that's fine.
Say affirmation, say kindthings to yourself.
And if you know what to say orwhat to write, you look online
(20:58):
and there are plenty ofaffirmations, plenty of
affirmations.
Put those affirmations in yournotes on your phone and, as you
go out throughout your day, openup your phone, open up that
note app and start reading offyour affirmations to yourself.
(21:21):
You will see that, little bylittle, your speech, the way you
move, the way you go about yourday, the way you're going about
(21:43):
your life, it begins to change.
And at first you may not evenrealize it.
But let me tell you who's goingto realize it?
Other people, people you workwith, your family members, your
friends, associates.
(22:04):
They will begin to see and theywill begin to hear because your
speech is changing Again.
I know about moving in silence,because this is what I've been
doing in my life and manifestingmy new life for myself.
(22:28):
You know I didn't feel a needto get on the phone telling
everybody oh, you know, I'mmanifesting this new life.
This is not because I know that.
You know some of my friends.
They're just not there, Rightand so, and that's fine, that's
(22:50):
fine.
But I know that they'll getthere eventually because they'll
see how my life is changing andthen they'll ask questions and
I will be all too happy to letthem know what I am doing and
how I am doing it.
But in the meantime, I'm movingin silence.
(23:15):
I'm moving in silence is me andthe Lord moving in, and my
routine is at night.
I fall asleep listening to Askformations After I've done my
(23:42):
prayer.
I'm Lord and I were talking,you know, and I'm journaling.
Scripting, which is anotherthing.
In the manifestation life, youcan write out your life and with
scripting, you are not writing.
(24:03):
Oh, you know, I wish I can dothis.
I want to have this.
No scripting is you are writingas if it is already happening
in your life, right?
So if you are desiring a newjob, you are writing.
(24:31):
My new job is so amazing.
It is wonderful.
My new job has given me so manyblessed opportunities.
My salary is six figures.
My new boss is amazing.
My new coworkers are amazing.
(24:52):
If you are desiring to workremotely, my new job is 100%
remote.
There is no hybrid.
There is no coming into officeeven once a week.
No, I am home 100%.
If you're desiring a marriage,my marriage is so beautiful, it
(25:12):
is just so full of love.
We love each other, we aremadly in love and we just have
the most amazing union.
God has truly blessed me, yousee, you see how that goes.
So when you are scripting,you're not saying, oh, I'm
desiring marriage and I ampatiently waiting.
(25:36):
No, you are speaking that thingas if you are already in it.
And those are just two examples, because whatever it is that
you are desiring to manifest inyour life, you write as if those
things are happening right now.
Okay, so keep in mind, itdoesn't happen overnight.
(26:06):
Although manifesting is aboutturning your dreams into reality
, it does require you to takeproactive steps toward whatever
it is you desire.
(26:27):
So today's inspiring quote comesfrom none other than our
forever First Lady, michelleObama.
First Lady Michelle LeVonRobison Obama is a lawyer,
writer and the wife of the 44thPresident, barack Obama.
(26:49):
She is the first AfricanAmerican First Lady of the
United States.
Through her four maininitiatives, she became a role
model for women and an advocatefor healthy families, service
members and their families,higher education and
international adolescent girlseducation.
(27:09):
And here is what she has had tosay.
One of the lessons I grew upwith was to always stay true to
yourself and never let whatsomebody says distract you from
your goals.
I thought that was so perfectbecause in manifesting, that's
(27:35):
what I was saying.
You know, sometimes people willget what it is that you're
doing and other times peoplewill not.
So, in order to not bedistracted, sometimes you're
going to move in silence, andthat's okay.
Right, that is perfectly okay.
(27:57):
