Are you curious why some people seem to effortlessly manifest their dreams while others struggle to achieve their goals? In this compelling episode of The Grit Show, host Shawna Rodrigues sits down with neuroscience-trained life purpose coach Monica to explore the science-backed secrets behind manifestation, mindset, and self-belief. Discover how your brain’s “reticular activation system” actually filters your reality—and how, with practical techniques, you can rewire these filters to invite more opportunity, happiness, and abundance.

Monica shares eye-opening client stories on transforming old beliefs and empowering yourself through intuitive routines and mirror work. If you've ever wondered about the intersection of neuroscience, manifestation, and intuitive living, this episode teases tangible tools to create lasting change. Get ready for inspiration and real talk about unlocking the vibrant, purpose-filled life you deserve!
