Manifestation & Money

How do you keep believing in your big dream when your bank balance tells a very different story? Manifestation can feel a whole lot messier when you're trying to hold a vision and pay the bills at the same time.

I'm joined by hypnotherapist Linda Sevilla, who shares what happened after she and her husband decided to move from Vancouver Island to Mexico. Shortly after admitting what she really wanted, Linda discovered just 18 cents left in her bank account. And getting to Mexico wasn't the end of the challenges.

Linda shares how she began applying the tools she taught her clients to her own life: meditation, exploring inherited beliefs and imagining the everyday details of the future she wanted. Alongside that inner work, she and her husband continued making offers, selling belongings and working to bring in money.

In this episode:

• Holding a future vision while acknowledging today's circumstances.
• Recognising beliefs about safety, money and dreaming bigger.
• Letting go of the need for everyone to approve of your dream.
• How Linda used meditation alongside practical action.
• The unexpected reminder her cat Oslo gave her in Cancun.

I love talking about money. I love receiving money. So why did the suggestion to smell a few bills give me a full-body "ew"?

A trip to Las Vegas with my husband Chris—and a video sent by a Manifestation Playground member—helped me notice a belief I hadn't questioned: money is dirty.

In this solo episode, I'm sharing my very personal exploration of that belief, from refusing to take cash out of my purse to collecting forgotten bills around the house and discovering that my relationship with money apparently comes with terms and conditions.

We'll explore:

• The difference between loving money and feeling comfortable with physical cash. • How quickly the stories we tell ourselves about money can shift. • What I noticed when I questioned my familiar "I never have cash" story. • Four sentence starters to help you uncover your own money beliefs. • A playful word swap that invites you to hear those beliefs differently.

You don't need to smell your money to join this conversation. Bring a little curiosity about what you believe—and where those ideas came from.

Have you ever wanted to change direction, only to think, "But I've already invested so much time, money, and energy into this"?

Entrepreneur Tanny Diep knows that feeling. Her journey took her through corporate sales, fashion, and an unexpected yoga teacher training before she built Sway Brows, a permanent makeup business that grew to include education and business coaching.

Along the way, she discovered that changing careers didn't mean leaving her experience behind. Every chapter gave her skills she could bring into the next one.

In this conversation, we explore the intuition, intention, and practical action behind creating a life you love—including the vision Tanny wrote in her journal years before she could see how it would happen.

We chat about:

• Giving yourself permission to pivot—even after investing in a different path. • How yoga introduced Tanny to gratitude, journaling, and a new relationship with her thoughts. • The client experience that helped her recognize the deeper purpose behind her work. • Combining belief with practice, consistency, and business skills. • Building multiple income streams around one area of expertise. • Recognizing when it's time to enjoy your success instead of continually moving the goalpost.

If you're feeling called toward something new, this episode is a reminder: you're bringing more experience, capability, and possibility than you might realize.

Could people pleasing be getting in the way of the life you want to create? When everyone else's needs fill your calendar, it can be easy to lose sight of your own desires—or assume there's simply no room for them.

In this episode, I'm joined by Mary Ann Robbat, a coach and mom of triplets, to explore manifestation, limiting beliefs, and the patterns we carry into adulthood. Mary Ann shares how noticing her envy of another mom's school-pickup routine helped her question the way she was running her business and change her working hours to support her family.

We also talk about creating space to hear your own intuitive nudges, getting clear on what you want, and why quiet reflection doesn't always have to mean sitting still. If you've been doing all the things while putting your own vision on hold, this conversation offers a thoughtful place to pause and reconsider.

In this episode:

• Recognising when a people-pleasing habit has stopped serving you. • Using envy as a clue to a desire you haven't given yourself permission to pursue.
• Questioning work rules and setting boundaries around your priorities.
• Exploring Mary Ann's approach to visualisation and releasing limiting beliefs.
• Finding space for reflection through walking, gardening, and everyday movement.

In manifestation, which comes first: changing what you believe is possible, or receiving something that helps you believe? A winter coat gave me a playful reason to explore that question—and notice how easily we can choose on autopilot.

In this solo episode, I share how a frustrating Costco trip and a dog's very successful hunt for pocket treats helped me uncover the guilt shaping my shopping decisions. Once I stopped to ask what I actually wanted, I began looking beyond the options I'd already chosen for myself.

That everyday moment opens up a bigger conversation about belief, receiving, and giving yourself permission to explore. If you've been waiting to feel completely confident before taking a small step, this episode offers another place to begin.

In this episode:

• How guilt quietly narrowed my choices before I noticed it.

• Why getting clear on what you want can change what you recognise.

• How receiving support, opportunities, or small wins can strengthen belief.

• Why perception and reception can work together in a cycle.

• A simple invitation to question your defaults and leave room for possibility.

In this episode:

• Look beyond gifts to build a more realistic holiday budget.

• Use last year's spending to help plan this year's celebrations.

What if the pattern you keep bumping into is trying to show you something?

In this episode, I'm joined by numerologist and transformational mentor Anniston Riekstins for a playful conversation about life path numbers, repeating numbers, fear, and the seasons of our lives. Anniston even calculates my life path number during the interview—and her take on my habit of wanting "one more training" before I'm ready leads to an unexpectedly personal moment.

We explore how noticing a pattern can help you respond differently the next time it appears. Anniston also shares how she moved through a fear of public speaking and why she believes some seasons call us to focus on family or healing rather than constant growth.

You don't need to know a thing about numerology to enjoy this conversation. Bring your curiosity!

What if the breakthrough you're looking for doesn't require you to push harder—but to feel a little safer?

In this episode, I'm joined by somatic practitioner and marriage coach Becky Aste for a beautiful conversation about nervous system regulation, relationships, money, and learning to work with your body instead of constantly trying to think your way through change.

Becky shares her own story of reaching the brink of divorce after years of trying traditional approaches to heal her marriage. It wasn't until she discovered somatic work and began creating safety within herself that things started to shift.

And here's where our conversation gets especially interesting for the Manifestation & Money crowd: the patterns Becky discovered in her relationship didn't stop there. She began noticing those same patterns showing up in motherhood, money and other areas of her life.

In this episode, we chat about:

✨ What somatics actually means—and how to start listening to your body ✨ Why your nervous system often chooses what's familiar, even when it's uncomfortable ✨ Why slowing down can feel so difficult for high-achieving women ✨ How tiny shifts can create lasting change ✨ The connection between our relationship patterns and our relationship with money ✨ Simple practices including self-touch, butterfly tapping and the five senses ✨ Why compassion and curiosity can be incredibly powerful starting points ✨ Giving yourself permission to grow, pivot and change at your own pace

One of my favorite reminders from this conversation: sometimes the answer isn't another big breakthrough. It might be creating 5% more safety and letting that tiny shift compound.

What if the manifestation tool you've been searching for... is actually YOU?

In this solo episode of the Manifestation & Money Podcast, we're taking some of the pressure off manifestation.

Because while I LOVE scripting, affirmations, vision boards, EFT, journaling and experimenting with all kinds of manifestation techniques, none of those tools actually hold the magic.

You do.

The tools simply help you access what's already there.

In this episode, we're exploring:

✨ Why the same manifestation technique can feel amazing for one person and completely flat for another ✨ How manifestation tools can amplify clarity, belief and possibility—but aren't the source of your power ✨ Why you don't need to force yourself to believe something that feels impossible ✨ How to use "bridge beliefs" to gently expand what's possible for you ✨ The difference between believing in your manifestation and believing in yourself ✨ Why self-trust matters when opportunities actually arrive ✨ How to recognize when a manifestation practice is supporting you—or when it's becoming another box to check ✨ Why looking back at everything you've already created can strengthen your belief in what's possible next

I'll also revisit the story of manifesting our lake property and look at it through a slightly different lens. Was the scripting exercise itself the magic—or did it help me get clear, emotionally connect with what I wanted and become available to recognize and act on the opportunity when it appeared?

This episode is your permission slip to play with the tools without giving your power away to them.

Maybe you don't need another manifestation technique today.

Maybe you simply need to believe in yourself 1% more.

You manifested the thing. So why doesn't it feel like you thought it would?

In this episode of the Manifestation & Money Podcast, Jen welcomes Jessica Ann for a conversation about sustainable manifestation—and what it means to receive, enjoy, and feel at home in the life you're creating.

A registered nurse, Reiki practitioner, and founder of Somatic Energetics Academy, Jessica shares her journey through divorce, raising young children, working two jobs, and building a business. Along the way, she began exploring the connection between her beliefs, emotional wellbeing, and the changes she wanted to make.

Together, we explore:

✨ The difference between a quick manifestation and lasting fulfillment. ✨ Jessica's perspective on worthiness, identity, and receiving. ✨ What somatic work means and how it brings the body into the conversation. ✨ Why you don't need to feel positive all the time. ✨ How to meet self-doubt with curiosity and compassion. ✨ A simple two-hour check-in to help you step out of autopilot.

If you've been doing all the things while putting your own needs last, this episode is an invitation to reconnect with yourself.
