More Episodes

Hey everyone! Today’s episode is especially exciting because I’m sharing something I’ve been pouring my heart into for quite some time – my Manifestation Course: Unlock Your Power, Attract Your Desires, and Manifest a Life You Love in Just 7 Days!

If you’re a retreat leader, coach, healer, or anyone guiding others toward their dreams, you’ll want to stick around for this episode. Manifestation isn’t just for personal goals – it’s a powerful tool to enhance every area of life, including your career, business, and the experiences you create for others.

What is Manifestation?

Let’s start by diving into what manifestation really is. Manifestation is about more than just visualizing what you want or setting an intention. Those are important steps, but true manifestation involves aligning your energy, setting focused intentions, and taking inspired action. It’s a powerful process that connects your thoughts, emotions, and actions to the outcomes you desire.

If you’re listening to this, you’re probably someone who’s already dedicated to growth, both for yourself and for others. You might be leading retreats, building a community, or simply trying to grow your own personal life in alignment with your purpose. Manifestation can be a game-changer – not just for personal goals, but for creating the career, impact, and experiences you want for your clients and participants.

 

My Journey with Manifestation

Now, I’ll be honest – this wasn’t always something I felt confident about. Over a decade ago, I doubted my worth, felt overwhelmed by my goals, and struggled to believe I could actually create the life I envisioned. I remember feeling paralyzed by all the "what ifs" and waiting for that “perfect moment” to come along. And I know so many of you have felt that too.

But everything changed when I slowly developed a structured approach to manifesting, a way to move beyond just dreaming and into doing. And here’s the real kicker – over the past ten years, I’ve been able to manifest almost everything I desired, from my dream retreat center to building a fulfilling career that supports not only me but my family and all the incredible people I’ve met through this work.

And that’s exactly why I created this course. To teach YOU how to manifest whatever it is you want for yourself and the people you serve.

 

Why Manifestation is Powerful for Retreat Leaders

Now, I want to speak directly to my fellow retreat leaders. You all are visionaries, people who hold space for others to grow, heal, and transform. But to truly serve from a place of abundance and alignment, we need to be clear and intentional about our own path. Imagine how powerful it would be to walk into every retreat you lead with the confidence that you’re aligned with your purpose, your desires, and your own personal abundance.

Manifestation isn’t just a personal practice; it’s also a practice that can elevate every retreat experience. When you’re aligned, your energy will attract clients who are aligned with you. You’ll create a space that draws in exactly the right people, the right opportunities, and even the resources you need to bring your vision to life. That’s the beauty of manifesting – it’s not just about “getting things,” it’s about creating a life and a career that’s fully aligned with who you are and what you’re meant to do.

What’s Inside the Course

So let’s talk about what’s inside this course. I’ve broken down the exact steps that have worked for me – steps that I’ve spent the last five months testing and refining with a group of incredible individuals. Here’s what you can expect:

  1. A Prep Work Guide
    This is where you’ll start. We get you grounded and help you set strong intentions for the journey. It’s all about creating the mental and emotional space for manifestation, so you’re ready to dive deep.
  2. A Step-by-Step Manifestation Guide
    This is the roadmap. Every day, you’ll have a specific, simple activity to keep you on track and ensure your energy is aligned and your focus is sharp. This isn’t about guesswork – it’s a structured approach that makes manifestation achievable and tangible.
  3. 7 Days of Videos, Meditations, and Worksheets
    Each day, you’ll also get a video and guided meditations to reinforce the day’s theme, along with a worksheet to help you reflect and clarify your intentions. These tools are designed to get you fully engaged and connected with your goals.
  4. Additional Resources
    Beyond the core course, I’ve included activities and exercises specifically for identifying and releasing blocks that may be holding you back. These are the same tools I use whenever I feel like I need to realign or reconnect with my vision.
  5. Lifetime Access
    And this is a big one – you get lifetime access. That means anytime you want to go through the course again or need a refresher, it’s there for you. Plus, as I add new modules and content, you’ll receive those updates automatically.

How Manifesting Can Transform Your Life – and Your Retreats

I want you to imagine for a moment what it would feel like to move through your days knowing that everything you want is flowing toward you, that you’re completely in alignment with your vision, and that you have the power to create not only a life you love but also experiences that empower and transform others. For retreat leaders, this is a game-changer.

Think about the impact on your retreats – the energy you bring, the clients you attract, the opportunities that come your way. When you’re manifesting from a place of abundance and alignment, it’s like a magnet. Your energy is contagious, and people feel that they are a part of something bigger than themselves.

How to Get Started

Now, here’s the best part: for y’all I’m offering 25% off the course using code MANIFEST25. I want you to experience the power of manifesting for yourself, and I’m so excited to be able to share it at this special rate.

So, if you’re ready to take your dreams from “someday” to “right now,” join me on this journey. This course will guide you every step of the way, giving you the tools and confidence to manifest the life – and the career – that you deserve.  Let’s make 2025 YOUR year.  Visit retreatleadermanifesting.com 

I know that when we’re aligned and abundant, we can create spaces of healing, growth, and empowerment for others. I can’t wait to see the amazing things you’ll manifest, both for yourself and those you serve.

Thank you so much for joining me today, and as always, I’m sending you so much love. Let’s start manifesting the life you love – together.
