What if manifestation isn’t about forcing change—but about feeling safe enough to choose differently?
In this powerful January 6 episode of Aligned & Abundant, Christine Marcario explores how aligned action, nervous system safety, and discipline rooted in self-love create real, sustainable transformation—without burnout, pressure, or hustle.

This episode bridges manifestation, neuroscience, and embodiment, offering a grounded and compassionate approach to starting the new year in alignment rather than overwhelm.

🌱 Key Takeaways

• Manifestation works through co-creation, not wishful thinking
• Your nervous system defaults to what feels familiar, not what feels aligned
• Discipline becomes powerful when it’s rooted in self-trust and devotion, not punishment
• Consistency rewires the brain more effectively than intensity
• Abundance is about energy, presence, and meaning—not just money

What happens when you stop waiting for the “right time” and start living life on your own terms?

In this episode, I’m joined by Jacqueline van Bierk — a singer-songwriter, creative nomad, and host of Her Gypsy Rebel podcast. Jacqueline’s story is wildly powerful: from escaping East Germany as a young girl, to finding “home” in New York, to building a life rooted in freedom, reinvention, and deep self-trust.

This is the kind of conversation that reminds you: you’re allowed to choose again. You’re allowed to start over. You’re allowed to want more. You are allowed to choose freedom.

If you’ve been feeling stuck in routine, craving a reset, or hearing that quiet inner nudge that something wants to change… this episode will meet you right there.

What You’ll Hear In This Conversation

• Jacqueline’s unbelievable story of escaping East Germany — and what it taught her about freedom
• The moment she knew she belonged in New York, and how her creative life evolved from there
• Why change can feel terrifying… and how to move anyway (with trust, not pressure)
• The truth about starting new chapters, releasing old identities, and giving yourself grace
• A simple (but powerful) reminder: momentum changes everything

• Setting intentions before gatherings (“I choose calm. I don’t need to perform.”)
• Creating a cue word or signal with your partner for support or leaving early
• Giving yourself permission to step away from conversations
• Using the bathroom as a sacred pause to reset your nervous system
• Hydration, comfort, and dressing in ways that help your body feel safe
• Letting yourself gravitate toward people you feel comfortable with
• Simplifying gift giving — presence over perfection
• Setting time boundaries for visits
• Dividing responsibilities through potlucks and shared support

All of these practices become rituals you can return to again and again, helping you stay grounded even when emotions and expectations run high.

What if saying no didn’t make you selfish — but more peaceful, present, and authentic?
In this heartfelt conversation, hosts Kelly Tibbitts and Shabana Knight are joined by Intuitive Teacher Christine Marcario to explore people pleasing, boundaries, emotional labor, and how to care for yourself without guilt — especially during the holidays.

This episode is a powerful reminder that rest, simplicity, and self-trust are not luxuries — they’re necessities.

🎧 Episode Highlights

In this candid and compassionate discussion, we explore:

• Why people pleasing often leads to burnout, resentment, and exhaustion
• How authenticity can feel uncomfortable — but deeply freeing
• The difference between being kind and overgiving at your own expense
• How to set loving boundaries with family during the holidays
• Letting go of guilt around rest, naps, baths, and saying no
• Emotional labor expectations placed on women — and how to release them
• Simplifying holiday traditions without shame
• Rethinking gift-giving, perfection, and “doing it all”
• Tools for nervous system regulation, hydration, rest, and self-care
• How boundaries actually make relationships healthier
• Abundance mindset, manifestation, and “placing the order” from alignment
• Angel numbers, divine support, and trusting you’re on the right path

This conversation is especially supportive for moms, caregivers, and anyone navigating family expectations, overwhelm, or people-pleasing patterns.

✨ Memorable Takeaways

• You can be a good person without doing everything
• Rest is not something you earn — it’s something you need
• Boundaries are decisions made in advance
• Simpler holidays can be more meaningful
• Saying no doesn’t make you unloving — it makes you honest
• Feeling good is part of alignment and manifestation
• You’re allowed to want more ease, joy, and abundance
