I just returned from the most incredible weekend in Spain, leading my Magic of Manifesting retreat in one of the most breathtaking, soul-stirring places I’ve ever been. And let me tell you… something opened. Not just in the land. Not just in the group. But in me.
There’s something that happens when we come together in person—when we sit in circle, share sacred space, and allow Spirit to move through us collectively. The energy becomes tangible. You can taste it as it becomes Real. Alive. I watched each person soften, expand, and remember who they really are.
This retreat brought to life something I’ve always known to be true: manifesting is a sacred co-creation. When we’re in resonance with Spirit, life begins to move through us in ways we could never orchestrate alone.
It’s the heart of what I’ve been pouring into my new book, The Art of Manifesting, and being in Spain made me feel even more deeply connected to that message’s soul.
And it reminded me just how much I’ve missed being with you in person. The depth. The intimacy. The transformation. Something was reawakened in me that week, and it’s stirring up something new for what’s next. I love live events!!
Of course, the epiphany came with a surge of inspiration. I called my team right from Spain, rallied the troops, and said: “Let’s plan a weekend retreat in Santa Fe, New Mexico, for mid-September.” So… stay tuned for that official announcement!
One of the themes I explore in The Art of Manifesting (coming late September!) is how simple drawing techniques can shift neuroplasticity and ease the process of creating with Spirit. It’s wild how the way we draw reflects the energy we’re aligning with—chaos and fear vs. curiosity and trust. When we’re in a stressed state, the brain searches for evidence of threat. But curiosity doesn’t need safety or certainty—just openness. And that requires surrendering fear.
We practiced this during a powerful chair exercise, one I’ll be teaching in my upcoming Certified Intuitive Coach® Program. One participant shifted dramatically between chairs: from perkiness to pale exhaustion, then back again with renewed vitality. The question we explored was this:
“From which state—body, mind, and spirit—do you want to manifest? From fear, or from faith?”
Later, a participant caught me in the corridor. They’d broken my “no-news” guideline and shared how overwhelmed they felt by global events and the chaos of the world. I gave them two minutes to say everything they were afraid of. Then I asked, “Can you genuinely manifest something meaningful from this place?”
“No,” they said. “I feel powerless.”
So I brought them to the chapel on the property. I pointed to a seat and said, “Your soul sits there. Go sit with it. Tune into your immortal self. That’s your direct dial to Source.”
A few moments later, I asked, “Do you still feel the same?”
They shook their head. “Actually… no.”
Same news. Same chaos. But something had changed—they’d tuned into Spirit.
Both are true. The turmoil, the wild shifts, the uncertainty and the still, small, certain voice of your soul whispering: This too shall pass.
Try this for yourself. Take two chairs.
Sit in one and give yourself full permission to feel all the fear, stress, and “sky-is-falling” energy. Then, when you’re ready, sit in the other chair—the one you assign to your soul. Let your immortal self lead the way.
It’s fascinating. And it’s powerful. 💖
