The following podcast is a Dear Media production. Thank you so much for tuning in to this week's episode of she's so Lucky. The podcast, all about how we create our own luck. And when I think about ways that I have created my own luck, manifestation, and learning how to manifest and being open to manifestation has been such a huge part of that. We've done episodes about manifestation on the show over the years, but I realized it's been a minute, so I actually invited one of my favorite manifestation creators, Olivia Rose Thomas, to the show so that we can all get our manifest on.

Thank you so much. I love that you want to talk about all things manifesting. I love your rebrand, by the way, too. She's so Lucky. I think that's such a beautiful encapsulation of this new era of, like, hey, let's create our own luck.

So I thought that it would be fun as kind of like an icebreaker to maybe start off talking about some things that we've manifested. I'm curious if there was a time where you feel like you were consciously manifesting for the first time and what that was.

I had heard about the topic of manifesting in, like, 2020. I think a lot of people started getting into it around then when we were all stuck in our homes with nothing better to do than, like, scroll and learn and dive into new topics. And when I hear. Heard about it in 2020, I was like, that's absolutely not true. I saw the quote, you have the power to create your own reality. And I was, like, triggered by that. I was like, that's not true. We don't have any power over creating our reality. Like, that's not true. We're kind of just in a path, and that's, you know, you're. You're in luck or you're not in luck. Right. But I figured, you know, if that is true, I might as well test it out. That was right before I decided to move to New York. And so I was like, okay, I'm moving to New York. Let me try out this manifesting thing. Let me start getting really clear on things I want to manifest best. Start creating these delusional goals, started making a vision board and putting all these things down. So many of those things ended up coming true. And so I was like, oh, okay. This cannot be a coincidence. And I realized that the more I, you know, started being kind to myself, the more I started visualizing, the more I started doing the healing work, the easier it was to manifest. And then so many things started coming true. I started getting really serious about it and really going down the rabbit hole and starting to expand my mind even more. Some examples of things I manifested, like moving to New York. I was like, okay, I want to live in, you know, a n apartment with like two guys and two girls and do like a friend situation. Ended up getting that exact situation. It was so fun. Ended up realizing I needed a little bit more space and I was like, okay, living by myself would be so cool. That's a little bit unrealistic, but I'm gonna still put it on my vision board. And essentially, literally, like the next day after I put on my vision board, one of my friends asked me to sublet her apartment, this really nice high rise studio apartment. And I was like, okay, this is getting actually kind of crazy of how much you can manifest when you actually let yourself get your hopes up and let yourself expect good things. And that was essentially my huge realization of we can either focus on the worst case scenario and think it's not going to go good, or we can focus on the best case scenario and let ourselves get our hopes up. And I quickly realized that when you force yourself to expect good things and focus on the best case scenario, things start coming true. And I've been doing that ever since.
