If you’ve ever felt too fiery, too loud, too much—this episode is your permission slip to take up space. Today, Jessica is joined by Emma, who opens up about her path of radical self-reclamation.  What happens when the identities you’ve clung to—like being the “fit, strong, disciplined” athlete—start creating more anxiety than alignment? What if you could let them go and still be worthy?

Emma shares how tools like the TBM work have helped her create her own roadmap to her parenting journey—and how along the way, she was able to hold and heal her inner child. Her story is raw, real, and full of moments that will make you pause and reflect on your own path. She sheds light on navigating vulnerability, the push-pull of sharing online, and the sacred power of embracing spiritual awakening and new chapters—not as something to fear, but as the space where your next evolution begins.

This is your reminder that you are allowed to change. You’re allowed to grow. And you’re allowed to soften. The past does not define you—and you deserve to move forward with ease, peace, and radical self-acceptance.

Pre-Order NOW

 

The Expanded Podcast, from To Be Magnetic™ (TBM), is the leading manifestation podcast rooted in neuroscience, psychology, and energetics. Hosted by TBM’s Chief Content Officer Jessica Gill, with monthly appearances from founder Lacy Phillips, Expanded is where science and the mystical meet to help you manifest in the most grounded, practical, and life-changing way.

At TBM, we’ve redefined manifestation through Neural Manifestation™—our proven, science-backed method developed with neuroscientist Dr. Tara Swart. This process helps you reprogram limiting beliefs at the subconscious level so you can create the life most aligned with your authenticity.

Each week, we take you inside the TBM practice to help you expand your subconscious to believe what you desire is possible. Through expert interviews, thought leader conversations, TBM teachings, and real member success stories, you’ll learn how to:
 – Rewire your subconscious mind and step into your worth
 – Heal your inner child and integrate shadow work
 – Set boundaries, strengthen intuition, and reclaim self-worth
 – Manifest relationships, careers, abundance, and experiences that align with your true self

With over than 40 million downloads and a global community in over 100 countries, Expanded has become the gold standard in manifestation content. Think of it as your weekly practice for expanding your mind, believing what you want is possible, and manifesting the life you’re meant to live.

Past guests include leading voices such as Mel Robbins, Lewis Howes, Jenna Zoe, Martha Beck, Dr. Joe Dispenza, Dr. Gabor Maté, Mark Groves, and Brianna Wiest.
