Welcome to The Manifesting Formula. I’m Christine Rizzo, and if there’s one thing I’ve learned over the years, it’s that creating a life you love is about so much more than making a vision board and hoping the Universe is paying attention. LOL. Manifesting starts with you—your thoughts, your energy, the way you speak to yourself, the choices you make, what you believe, what you hold onto, what you’re willing to let go of, and most importantly, learning to trust that little voice inside of you that usually knows a hell of a lot more than we give it credit for. After taking two years away from the podcast, I’m coming back with a whole lot more life behind me—and believe me, my friends, life has given me plenty to talk about. LOL. We’re still going to talk about manifesting, because that will always be at the heart of this podcast. But we’re going deeper. We’ll talk about spirituality, intuition, gratitude, relationships, self-love, self-trust, energy, the lessons life continues to teach us, and how all of it plays a part in creating the life we actually want to live. I’ll share the stories, the lessons, the things I’ve gotten right, the things I’ve gotten completely wrong, and probably a few things I’m still trying to figure out. Because I’m not here to tell you that I have all the answers. I’m here to share what I’ve learned, what I’m still learning, and maybe help you see something in your own life a little differently along the way. So whether you’ve been here since Episode 1 or you just found me today, welcome, my friend. I’m so happy you’re here. It’s time to remember just how powerful you really are.

    133. Manifesting - What If It Doesn't Work Out? But... What If It DOES?!

    Send us Fan Mail What If It All Works Out? Why is it so easy to imagine everything that could go wrong...before anything has even happened? In this episode of The Manifesting Formula, Christine talks about our tendency to focus on possible negative outcomes, why our brains naturally pay attention to potential threats, and how the people and thinking we grew up around can also influence the way we see what's ahead. Christine shares the story of a former coaching client who was so worried about everything that could go wrong on an upcoming family road trip that she was already experiencing a terrible vacation in her mind—before she had even left. One question helped her begin to change that: Do you know that's going to happen? And if you don't... what if it doesn't? This episode isn't about pretending everything will always go perfectly. It's about becoming aware of the stories you're creating about a future that hasn't happened yet—and remembering that the worst possible outcome isn't the only possibility. Because worrying and dreaming are both imagining something that hasn't happened yet. So why does worrying sometimes feel so much more believable? Maybe it's time to start asking a different question: What if it all works out? My Friends.... I want to ask for a favor. If The Manifesting Formula has helped you... if there has been an episode that made you think differently... helped you through something... made you laugh... or maybe you just enjoy spending this time with me every week... would you take a minute and leave the podcast a review? Your reviews really do mean so much to me. And they also help other people find the podcast. So if you haven't left one yet... I would absolutely love it if you would. I am thanking you in advance.... Thank you for listening to The Manifesting Formula, have a beautiful day wherever you are in the world, and if no one has told you today..... I love you!

    132. Manifesting - You Say You Want It… But What Are You Doing to Create It?

    Send us Fan Mail We all have things we want. More happiness. More love. More money. A better relationship. A successful business. More peace. A life that feels really f*****g good to wake up to. But here’s the question… What are you actually doing to create it? In this episode of The Manifesting Formula, we’re talking about the difference between wanting an outcome and actually doing the work to create it. Because manifesting isn’t sitting around thinking positive thoughts and waiting for the Universe to drop your dream life on your front porch. Wouldn’t that be nice? 😂 Creating the life you want involves the internal work—your thoughts, feelings, beliefs, energy, and focus—but it also requires action. You can visualize what you want. You can think about it. You can feel excited about it. But at some point, you have to look at what you’re actually doing every day to help create that outcome. I’m also giving you a simple ten-minute visualization practice to help you connect with what you want and begin seeing and feeling that life before the physical evidence is sitting in front of you. My beautiful friends, wanting the outcome is only the beginning. The question is… What are you doing to create it? Listen now and let’s do the work. ❤️ In this episode: • The difference between wanting something and actually creating it • Why wanting the outcome is only the beginning • How your everyday actions are either moving you toward what you want—or keeping you where you are • Why the internal work AND the physical action both matter • What it really means to do the work • How to look honestly at what you’re doing every day • A simple 10-minute visualization practice to connect with the outcome you want • Why you don’t have to wait for the perfect time to begin • Choosing one outcome you want—and asking yourself: What am I doing to create it?

    131. Manifesting - You Teach People How to Treat You

    Send us Fan Mail Have you ever found yourself asking, “Why do they keep treating me this way?” Maybe you’ve told them how you feel. Maybe you’ve asked them to stop. Maybe you’ve had the same conversation more times than you can count...and yet, nothing changes. In this episode of The Manifesting Formula, we’re turning that question around. Because while you are not responsible for another person’s behavior, you ARE responsible for what you continue to participate in. We’re talking about boundaries, self-love, patterns in relationships, and the difference between trying to control someone else’s behavior and deciding what YOU will do when a boundary is crossed. We’ll also talk about why setting a boundary can feel uncomfortable, why someone being unhappy with your boundary doesn’t automatically mean it’s wrong, and why loving or understanding someone doesn’t mean you have to continue accepting behavior that hurts you. And of course, we’re connecting all of this back to manifesting—because you create your life through more than what you say you want. You create it through what you choose, what you continue, what you give your energy to, and what you’re willing to change. Sometimes the most powerful question isn’t... “Why do they keep doing this?” It’s... “What do I need to do differently to stop creating the same outcome?” Because their behavior is theirs. Their choices are theirs. But your life...is yours. ❤️ Support the show

    130 - Manifesting - Who Is the Voice in My Head—and Why Won’t It Shut Up?

    Send us Fan Mail You know that voice in your head that worries, overthinks, compares, assumes, judges, replays things that already happened and occasionally tries to convince you that something is wrong when absolutely nothing has happened? Yeah. Her. 😂 I call her my Inner Mean Girl—and she has a LOT to say. In this episode of The Manifesting Formula, we're talking about the voice in your head, where some of those thoughts and beliefs come from, and why just because a thought came from your own mind doesn't mean it's true. I'll share how my relationship with my own Inner Mean Girl has changed over the years, why she doesn't get out much anymore 😂, and how meditation helped me learn one of the most important things I know today: I can notice a thought without having to follow it. We'll also talk about the difference between feeling something and feeding it, the Buddhist teaching of the two arrows, and how we can unintentionally keep hurt, anger, fear or disappointment alive long after the original moment has passed. And because this is The Manifesting Formula, we'll connect all of this back to your thoughts, your feelings, your energy—and what you're creating in your life. You don't need to monitor every thought that enters your mind. You don't need to fight with your Inner Mean Girl. And you definitely don't need to believe everything she tells you. Because if it isn't coming from love... it's a f*****g lie. ❤️ In this episode, you'll hear about the Inner Mean Girl and the Inner Goddess, subconscious beliefs and the things we learned to believe about ourselves, how thoughts affect feelings and energy, meditation and awareness, feeling versus feeding an emotion, the Buddhist teaching of the two arrows, and why the voice in your head really can become a whole lot quieter. Thank you for listening to The Manifesting Formula. If this episode made you think of someone whose Inner Mean Girl could use a little less microphone time 😂, send it their way. And if you've been enjoying the podcast, I would love it if you'd take a minute to leave a rating or review. It helps more people discover our little corner of the podcast world. ❤️ Support the show

    129 - Manifesting - How Do You Make Peace With A Choice You Can't Change?

    Send us Fan Mail Have you ever made a choice you knew you couldn’t take back...but found yourself thinking about it months—or even years—later? Maybe the choice isn’t actually what you’re still struggling with. Maybe it’s the relationship you wanted to be different.  The person you wanted someone to be.  The apology or understanding you never received.  Or the version of the story you keep replaying in your mind. In this episode, we’re talking about what it really means to accept something you cannot change—and why acceptance doesn’t always mean closeness, reconciliation, or pretending something didn’t hurt. I’m also sharing more about my relationship with my mom, how that relationship shaped the mother I chose to become, and one of the biggest lessons I’ve learned: You cannot change the choice you made then. But you absolutely have a choice about what you do with it now. We’ll talk about acceptance, forgiveness, relationships, the stories we continue to tell ourselves, and how the energy we give our past can affect the life we’re creating today. Because making peace with a choice doesn’t mean changing what happened. It means deciding how much of your life you’re willing to keep giving to it. Support the show

    128. Manifesting - When "That Person" Is No Longer "Your Person"

    Send us Fan Mail Have you ever looked at a friendship or relationship and realized... this person just isn't my person anymore? Maybe there wasn't a huge fight. Maybe no one did anything terrible. Maybe the relationship simply changed...and somewhere along the way, you changed too. In this episode, I'm sharing a very personal experience that made me look differently at one of my own friendships—and helped me realize something important: That moment didn't change the relationship. It showed me what the relationship had already become. We're talking about the relationships we hold onto because of history, the expectations we place on people, and what happens when we stop trying to make a relationship be something it simply isn't anymore. We'll also talk about acceptance, impermanence, the word “should,” and a question that might make you look at some of the relationships in your own life differently: If I met this person today...would I still choose this friendship? Not every relationship is meant to stay the same forever. People change. We grow. Life changes. And sometimes making peace with a relationship isn't about fixing it, ending it, or deciding who's right and who's wrong. Sometimes... it just is what it is. Support the show

    127. Manifesting - When You Think You've Lost Your Purpose: Sometimes Life Has Other Plans

    Send us Fan Mail What happens when something you thought was part of your purpose...suddenly isn't part of your life anymore? Sometimes we become so attached to what we thought our life was supposed to look like that when it changes, we wonder... Who am I now? In this episode, I'm sharing one of the most personal stories I've ever told on The Manifesting Formula—a story about Bruno and Roxy, two beautiful souls I loved deeply, the grief that came with losing them, and what happened when I thought a part of my purpose had disappeared with them. But sometimes life has other plans. And sometimes what feels like an ending... is making space for something we never could have imagined. We're talking about grief, love, purpose, change, and what it means to stay open when life doesn't look anything like you thought it would. Because maybe your purpose isn't always one thing. Maybe it can change as you change. Maybe one chapter can end without your purpose ending with it. And maybe... when you think you've lost your purpose... life is quietly leading you somewhere new.

    126. Manifesting - Peace Isn't Something You Find....It's Something You Create For Yourself

    Send us Fan Mail How much of your energy are you giving to things that really don’t deserve it? The conversation you keep replaying. The person you feel the need to explain yourself to. The situation you cannot control. The opinion someone has about you that you keep trying to change. We can spend so much time waiting for everything around us to settle down before we allow ourselves to feel peaceful. But what if peace doesn’t come from everything outside of you finally going the way you want it to? In this episode of The Manifesting Formula, we’re talking about protecting your time and your energy, letting other people have their opinions, knowing what belongs to you—and what simply isn’t your business—and taking responsibility for the energy you bring into your own life. Because you don't have to defend every decision. You don't have to explain yourself to everyone. You don't have to pick up everything someone else tries to hand you. And you certainly don't have to give every situation unlimited access to your thoughts and your energy. The more intentional you become about where your attention goes, the more you begin to realize... peace isn't something you have to go looking for. It's something you create for yourself.
