The JOY Broadcast with Ali Mortimer

Episode: The JOY of Manifesting - Part 2 (November 10, 2025)

Host: Ali Mortimer - the JOY Coach

Episode Overview

This episode is the second part in Ali Mortimer’s deep dive into the art and science of manifesting. Drawing from her own journey, discoveries in neuroscience, quantum energetics, and practical experience with clients, Ali breaks down why manifestation works—and offers a process to consciously “manifest as if by magic.” The tone is heartfelt, encouraging, and practical, intended to empower listeners to recode old beliefs, operate from love and joy, and attract truly magical outcomes.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Manifestation is Both Intuitive and Scientific

• Ali’s Personal Story: Manifestation began as an intuitive healing journey. Only later did Ali discover the scientific underpinnings that made her process work faster and more powerfully (00:55).
• Solidifying Belief: By understanding the “why” and “how” behind manifestation, belief in the process deepens—making it more effective (04:40).

2. The Reticular Activating System (RAS): Your Brain’s Filter

• Definition & Role:
  • The RAS is a filter in the brain, determining what information is noticed and acted on.
  • It's “like finding the sticky piece of code, the bit of code that doesn’t work and taking it out and putting in new code” (08:58).
• Ali’s Analogy: Learning to drive demonstrates how subconscious programming operates (11:20).
• Belief Codes:
  • The RAS acts on subconscious “belief codes,” reinforcing whatever we believe—positively or negatively.
  • “Our mind can either fuck you up… or it can fire you the fuck up. And you get to choose” (06:42).
• Rewriting Beliefs:
  • Use tools like Byron Katie’s “Is that true?” to question entrenched beliefs.
  • Identify, question, and consciously replace beliefs that don’t serve your joy or goals (15:43).

3. The Hawkins Scale & The Power of Emotional Frequency

• Hawkins Scale Explained:
  • A spiral representing the energetic frequency of different emotions, from heavy (shame, guilt, anger) to light (love, joy, enlightenment) (24:58).
• Energy as an Attractor:
  • Manifestation is about living at the emotional frequency of what you desire.
  • “We manifest when we live in the frequency we wish to manifest” (31:42).
• Practical Application:
  • Recognize where you are on the scale day by day.
  • Choose love, joy, peace, and abundance—not by waiting for external changes but by “closing your eyes and choosing the feeling” (27:24).

4. Manifestation is Creation Twice

• Everything is created first in the imagination, then in reality.
• Plan from the inevitability of the outcome, not from anxiety about how it will happen (41:28).
• “Those who are certain of the outcome can wait and wait without anxiety.” (A Course in Miracles) (43:37).

5. The Five A’s of Manifesting as if by Magic

Ali distills her approach into a five-step process (“the 5 A’s”):

1. Ask: Clearly know and name what you want (55:16).
2. Acknowledge: Recognize your most dominant (doubting or limiting) thought about having it (56:22).
3. Assume: Embody the vibration and identity of someone who already has it (58:70).
4. Act: Take inspired action from that new energy—as if it’s already happened (59:49).
5. Allow: Surrender, trust the process, and let the rest unfold (01:01:18).

• Play, have fun, and trust in this process—it can yield truly magical results.

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On the Power of the Mind:
  “Our mind can either fuck you up…or it can fire you the fuck up. And you get to choose.”
  (Ali Mortimer, 06:42)

• On Beliefs and the RAS:
  “Depending on the belief codes that you’ve programmed your reticular activating system with, that is what you are going to see and believe about yourself.”

Episode Essence & Takeaways

Ali Mortimer’s approach combines heart, science, and practicality. The episode empowers listeners to:

• Detect and recode limiting beliefs (the “sticky code” running beneath awareness).
• Understand how science (neurology and quantum energetics) validates the magic of manifesting.
• Recognize the immense creative leverage in operating emotionally from joy, love, and peace.
• Use a tangible five-step process (Ask, Acknowledge, Assume, Act, Allow) to bring dreams into reality.
• Trust that “everything you desire, desires you just as much”—and to approach life with an enthusiastic, inevitable belief in joy.

Ali closes with encouragement to play with these ideas, question beliefs bravely, choose loving frequencies daily, and enjoy the unfolding magic.
