hey, big ol bundle a cash 💰.

yesterday morning i called you mac n cheese in an email

yesterday evening a dear friend brought me some surprise mac n cheese from whole foods

there’s a lot of talk about the power of manifestation, and some of it i love

i’m all about honoring the way our language + thoughts can support us in our endeavors or cockblock us from what we seek

but i’m decidedly NOT all about the ways talk of manifestation often sounds like victim blaming, and ignores the very real systemic privileges some of us bring to the manifestation party + the barriers others of us do

in a nutshell, i believe that our words + energy matter…

and so does our lived experience + the constraints within which we live

to ignore those is irresponsible, unrealistic, and just plain rude

and there can be a lot of JUDGMENT wrapped up in attempts to manifest, a lot of pointy fingers declaring how you’re clearly doing it wrong if you aren’t getting what you want

now, is mac n cheese the thing i want most right now?

while it was delicious, the answer, of course, is NO

there are many more higher stakes wishes on my list, things i’d much rather have so easily manifested

and that may in fact be a part of the problem!

it’s so easy + natural to get wrapped up in how bad we want a thing or how properly we’re following the rules that may allow us to get what we want

it can keep us in our head more than we realize

second guessing ourselves, which takes us further from the energy we want in these situations

and when we don’t “get” the things we want, we often decide it means that we didn’t want them bad enough, or couldn’t act as-if well enough to convince energetics we already had them so that they could be swiftly delivered to us

but, i mean, mac n cheese is pretty low fucking stakes

which is the beauty of it!

i didn’t even realize i wanted it

when i thought to call you it, it was because i had been looking through old kid pics, and back then i was ALL ABOUT kraft macaroni + cheese, please

(if you’re in my age range, you may remember that tag line from the commercials)

so there was NO pressure, and i wasn’t trying to control an outcome

just a fond memory of a thing enjoyed, and then spaciousness for the source of energy in which you believe to call it in

or for random circumstance to align

call it what you want for all i care lol

another thing that goes sideways around manifestation is when you get too transactional with it

and to be clear… it’s not your fault! the way it’s introduced + taught is fraught with transactional thinking, even when the words say otherwise

and here’s the thing…

wanting a thing, so “doing” the “rules” of manifestation in order to try to “get” the thing —

it’s not very high vibration, bb

and while i don’t claim to have it all figured out, i do think that a missing link to pretty much everything INCLUDING this, is presence

intentionally being when + where you are

paying attention, like it’s your job

claiming joy, like it’s your job

inhabiting the moments you recall + the ones you currently experience

bringing the distilled spirit of a moment into your moments…

it creates conditions wherein spirit, source, universe or god can be well-informed to do the magic to bring in what is in your highest + best

this was intended to be a short + sweet last reminder email to you about the special pricing that disappears at midnight TONIGHT —

on half-day transformation sessions, YEAR AHEAD spreads, and 6-month sustained coaching experience

this is what came out instead

so i shall trust that whoever was most meant to hear it will open up this email

and whoever is most ready to co-create some magic with me will get in on wild BOGO or half-off pricing before it disappears tonight
