2024 was my year of no morning routines. It was a year of loving semi-hectic, haphazard, do-what-you-will, come-what-may type of mornings. I thrived in the chaos of an unmeditated morning. I’d slap on my slippers, splash water on my face, slather on some face oils, let my dog out, grab my journal and water bottle and head on upstairs.

Details of my 2025 morning routine and more are in this episode.

Crashing ocean waves, smoothie bowls and temporary gold-traced tattoos. Photos of jumping off beach cliffs, The Icebergs and the summery sounds of Odesza. These logos are all I need to be taken back to 2014 when Tumblr reigned and Sydney was the destination of Australia. Living in Melbourne, I remember being all too envious of the people who lived up north and had an-hour-and-under access to alcoves and beaches that looked airbrushed and their saturation boosted.

Manifestation is not new; it’s a topic that has been cat-fishing and over-promising as it’s made its way from one human’s mind to another for years on end. With commodities like The Secret and a self help industry that profits millions of dollars from it, one might question the motives of sharing on such a topic, and whether it’s all just a multi-level-marketing scheme (‘I’ll tell you how to manifest your dream life, and that’s how I’m funding mine, which is funding another’s and another’s up the line.’). So why is it that I felt like I could say a few words in defence of it? Why would I spend two years writing a book about it if it’s a theme that draws so much controversy and slyness in its online industry?
