I know how this sounds.

“I manifested money” — it’s the kind of headline that makes people roll their eyes or scroll past.

But if you’ve ever been broke, burned out, or stuck in a cycle of “almost making it,” then I want you to keep reading.

Because I’m not just going to tell you that I manifested money.

I’m going to tell you exactly how I did it — and how you can too.

Let’s rewind.

The Broke Version of Me Didn’t Believe in Any of This

I wasn’t always this person — the one who talks about manifestation, mindset, and subconscious reprogramming.

A few years ago, I was stuck. Working all the time. Launching offers that flopped. Watching other people make money online while I stayed in the “almost there” zone. You know that place? Where it feels like you’re doing everything right but nothing is landing?

Yeah, that was me. For years.

The most painful part wasn’t the lack of money — it was the feeling of powerlessness.

Like I was working against something invisible.

I didn’t realize I was the one creating that invisible resistance.

Everything Changed When I Did This One Thing

I got quiet. I stopped doing so much. And I started asking different questions.

Instead of asking,

“What’s the next marketing strategy?”

I asked,

“What do I believe about money that might be holding me back?”

It was uncomfortable. But it was necessary.

Because I realized: I didn’t actually believe money came easily.

I believed I had to fight for it. I believed I wasn’t worthy of making money doing what I loved.

I believed “abundance” was for other people.

That realization cracked something open.

I Reprogrammed My Subconscious (Here’s How)

I didn’t just start chanting affirmations and hoping for the best.

I created a daily practice.

I wrote down the beliefs I wanted to hold:

  • "Money flows to me easily."
  • "I am safe to receive."
  • "I am worthy of overflow."

I confronted my old programming — the stuff I heard growing up, the fear-based stories I kept repeating.

I visualized what it felt like to already have the money.

I started acting as if the version of me who had money was already here.

And here's the crazy part:

Within weeks of doing this — money started showing up.

Random Payhip sales. A surprise refund. A client I hadn’t spoken to in months reached out with a high-ticket offer.

It added up fast. Thousands. And it hasn’t stopped since.

Not because I worked harder. But because I aligned.

This Is Not About Magical Thinking — It’s About Mental Conditioning

People hear the word “manifestation” and think of fairy dust.

But this is actually about neuroscience + energy + aligned action.

When you shift your subconscious beliefs, your nervous system stops resisting what you’re asking for.

  1. You stop sabotaging.
  2. You stop shrinking.
  3. You start moving like a person who knows it’s already done.

And when you do that?

The universe responds.

How You Can Start Manifesting Money Now

If you’re tired of feeling stuck or secretly wondering why things aren’t working yet, here’s what I suggest:

Identify your dominant beliefs about money.

If you believe money is hard, inconsistent, or scarce — start there. That’s your block.

Create an abundance identity

Who is the version of you who already has money? What does she believe? How does she act? Get crystal clear.

Use repetition and emotion

You need to feel the belief for it to stick. Write it. Speak it. Visualize it. Daily.

Take aligned action

Don’t just sit around waiting. Move from the assumption that money is coming. Make the post. Pitch the offer. Build the product.

Want to Go Deeper?

I created a powerful 30-day process to help you uncover and rewire your limiting beliefs about money. This isn’t a journal prompt with cute quotes — it’s a transformation system designed to shift your subconscious at the root level.

It’s called:

“Uncovering Limiting Beliefs About Money: 30 Days to Abundance.”

If you’re serious about changing your relationship with money and becoming the version of you who receives with ease, this guide is your starting point.

Final Word: You’re the Block. And You’re the Breakthrough.

You don’t have to grind harder.

You don’t need a new platform.

You don’t even need more time.

You just need to believe — and assume — that you are already her.

The woman who receives.

The woman who attracts.

The woman who’s unbothered because she knows money is always finding its way to her.

That shift will make you unrecognizable in 30 days or less.

And your bank account will thank you.
