    Manifesting: Rooting into your desires

    In this episode of The Wisdom Work podcast, Christy and Christa dive deep into the powerful topic of manifestation. They shared the importance of aligning with what you truly want, the role of self-worth, and the significance of clearing out what no longer serves you.  Rather than focusing on rigid goal setting, resolutions, or pressure-driven productivity, this conversation invites listeners to explore manifestation as a lived practice rooted in self-awareness, emotional honesty, self-worth, and alignment. Christy and Christa weave in personal stories, client experiences, and wisdom teachings to offer a grounded, compassionate approach to calling in what you truly want while learning how to let go of what no longer serves you. This is a conversation about doing the inner work, learning to say no without guilt, and recognizing expanders in your life. Learn how to allow play, joy, and ease to coexist with your personal growth. Christy and Christa reflect on how manifestation often requires clearing emotional blocks, challenging subconscious beliefs, and learning to trust yourself not forcing outcomes or bypassing discomfort. At its core, this episode is a reminder that this work isn’t magic or wishful thinking. It’s the ongoing practice of aligning your energy, actions, and beliefs with the life you want to live while staying deeply present and grateful for the life you already have.

Together, we revisit some of Nancy’s most powerful nuggets, including: The difference between creating a life by design vs. living one by defaultWhy mindfulness is simply paying attention on purpose, with curiosity and no judgmentHow your daily thoughts shape your lived reality (and why most of them aren’t factual!)Practical tools like the STOP method: Stop, Take a breath, Observe, and Purposefully proceedUsing affirmations and imagination to shift from limiting beliefs to expanding possibilitiesWe also open up about our own journeys: Christa’s giddy joy of living her dream life in California, Christy’s moments of deep gratitude while working on the West Coast, and how both of us keep coming back to the power of energy, intention, and mindset in shaping what’s possible. If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in negative loops, doubting your path, or struggling to quiet the noise in your head, this episode is full of reminders and tools to help you pause, realign, and step forward with purpose.
