How to Turn Firing Someone Into a Powerful Win

TL;DR: The author shares a stunning true story of a client who fired her employee—only to receive a $10K contract hours later. A real-life illustration of how vibrational alignment trumps effort every time. This is Part 1 of an astounding 3-Part story.

There’s something extraordinary that happens when we stop seeing life as a linear chain of cause and effect, and start recognizing it as a living mirror of our vibrational state. That’s what the Positively Focused practice is all about—tuning your inner alignment so well that even what others call “negative experiences” turn out to be springboards into exactly what you’re wanting.

This three-part story is a powerful example. This is part one.

It involves two clients of mine—let’s call them Jane and Sally—whose lives intersected professionally. Jane employed Sally. But over time, their work relationship became strained. Jane had developed a dominant story: Sally wasn’t adding value. She believed it so thoroughly that she began telling everyone around her that Sally wasn’t producing anything meaningful. Eventually, Jane reached what she called the “last straw.”

She decided she was going to fire Sally. But the truth was: Sally had been doing great work—far beyond what was asked of her. Jane simply couldn’t see it.

When Stories Become Reality (and Blind Us to What’s True)

The Positively Focused perspective reminds us: your beliefs filter your world. Jane’s belief that Sally didn’t contribute value was so active, it completely blocked her ability to see the value right in front of her.

Sally had completed a task that Jane assigned—breaking up blog content for social media. Not only that, she also built, from scratch, a custom database using ChatGPT to organize and manage that content. But when Jane saw the database—because it had no content in it yet—she concluded Sally wasted her time. The truth was, Sally had the content ready. She just hadn’t loaded it in yet. Sally showed Jane the content, but Jane ignored what Sally presented.

Jane literally did not see what Sally had done…because her vibration wouldn’t allow it.

Firing Sally was the natural next step given Jane’s and Sally’s belief momentum.

This is not a failure of observation—it’s a demonstration of how powerfully our inner reality determines what we perceive outside us. Our persistent stories don’t just color the world; they shape it. They blind us to evidence that contradicts them. Jane wasn’t wrong in a moral sense. She was just vibrationally tuned to a version of Sally that matched her expectation.

This is how creation works.

The Universe Orchestrates More Than We Know

As this was unfolding, something else happened: a customer Jane had long disliked—due to their poor communication, arriving late to meetings, and overly wordy updates—suddenly died. The passing shocked Jane. But this loss created a vacuum in that customer’s organization.

A new interim CEO stepped in. She immediately emailed Jane, asking if Jane would be open to amending their contract—expanding it from a small $300 contract…to a $10,000 one.

Yes. From $300 to $10,000.

This is a client Jane had barely done any work for. But Jane had previously told me she wanted a second $10,000 client. The first one, a dental client, was already active. Now, out of what looked like tragedy and workplace drama, the Universe delivered the second.

Jane didn’t have to do anything for it. It came through alignment. That’s not the end of this story however. It’s just the beginning. But let’s pause here, because this is where many people miss the magic.

They think that Jane got lucky. That a door closed and another opened. That “one person died, another got fired, and everything worked out in the end.” But that’s not what happened.

What actually happened is this: the Universe perfectly matched everyone involved with the experiences they were aligned with—and in doing so, set up the next chapter of each person’s expansion. And they all won. Jane got her second $10,000 client. Sally, as you’ll see in Part 2, got something even more valuable than a job. And I, as their guide, got the supreme joy of watching divine timing play out in real time.

More to come tomorrow.

How One Powerful Intention Brought a Beautiful Stranger Back

TL;DR: The author shares a real-life manifestation story showing how a light, trusting intention led to a wonderful reunion — proving once again that alignment, not effort, is the secret to beautiful results.

There’s tremendous power in lining up with how reality works. Especially when it comes to creating outcomes we want. This power causes trying to “make it happen” to pale in comparison. Indeed, all my clients who have experienced this say that creating what they want is far, far, far more satisfying than trying to “make it happen” through doing.

But it takes trust to rely on BEING as a way to have what we want. Trust comes from repeated evidence demonstrated over time. Evidence proving process you’re wanting to trust is trust-worthy. That’s why the Positively Focused practice is a practice. Yes, it’s difficult at first, as is learning anything new. But the other, more important reason for the practice is people need to build trust in their being. That comes from assembling a body of evidence proving their being is worthy of their trust.

What happened in my life over the last six months is yet another piece of evidence fortifying my trust in everything I share. What happened isn’t so special. These kinds of things happen for me all the time these days. But the way in which it happened is special. That’s because, as I just shared, it’s one more weight tipping the scale towards my knowing that reality, or Wake-Scape, bends to our intention set in our Reality of Origin through the Moment Of Becoming.

Let’s look at this wonderful manifestation in which I created a rendezvous with a beautiful stranger I met months before.

It begins

I didn’t realize it six months ago, but what unfolded since then became a perfect, living example of the Positively Focused practice — the kind of story I tell my clients to help them see how Wake Scape really works when we align into our Moment of Becoming and follow our Broader Perspective‘s impulses.

There’s a burger joint I used to frequent. It wasn’t the food that drew me in week after week — though I’m not going to say no to a good burger. No, what kept pulling me in was a trans woman who worked there. She was stunning. Magnetic. The first time she brought my food out to me, she took my breath away.

From that moment on, I was hooked. Not in a desperate way. But I was definitely showing up more frequently at this burger place and not just for the burgers and tater tots. Every week I’d head over, sit at the bar, and simply…watch. Watch her move, cook, smile.

We never spoke. I never approached her. But I knew she knew I was looking. And yet something in me respected the sacred space of her workplace. I didn’t force an introduction.

Weeks passed. Maybe two months. Then one day, she wasn’t there.

The next week? Still no sign of her.

And just like that, she was gone. I realized she no longer worked there. And that felt like a door closing — one I hadn’t even walked through. I never got her name. Never had a chance to chat her up or even say hello.

But here’s where the manifestation began.

“Go for a walk”

I remember thinking: “I’m going to see her again.”

And that’s all. No trying. No scheming. I didn’t launch a search party or dig around online. I just felt the desire, set it down gently in the space of my Reality of Origin, and let it go. Letting it go was easy because I knew my Broader Perspective and All That Is was on it. So I didn’t need to be. My Broader Perspective received my intention to see her again. It would therefore orchestrate events so that that would happen.

I went on with life. No resistance. No need to control it. Just trust.

Fast forward to a day in late May. I woke up to an impulse. One of those quiet nudges from my Broader Perspective — ones I’ve learned to listen to without questioning. It was already 70° outside and heading toward 85°. The nudge was simple: go for a walk.

So I did. I didn’t even think twice. After dressing I headed out into the warm morning air. I walked over to the community center where I workout and ended up having a lovely 10-minute conversation with a man I know named Apollo. And yes — he looks like an Apollo.

We caught up, shared some laughs, then parted ways. I continued walking. About ¾ of the way through my route, far from the burger joint, I came upon a breakfast place. And who do you think was sitting at an outside table?

That’s right. Her.

The trans woman from the burger place. Just…sitting there. Radiant as ever.

The rendezvous was very much exactly like this!

Let that sink in

My heart did a little flip. I knew this was the moment I’d asked for. My intention, dropped in months ago, had landed. And now it was right in front of me, delivered right through the Moment of Becoming into my Present Moment, my collection of manifestations.

At first, I hesitated. I felt a flicker of embarrassment — should I approach her? What if it’s awkward? But I’ve trained myself to move beyond those thoughts. I knew this was an invitation from the All That Is, perfectly timed and lovingly orchestrated.

After screwing up some gumption, I walked over, pulled out the chair across from her and sat down. She smiled and opened a conversation. A conversation that was delightful.

Her name is Bryn. She told me she left the burger joint because the management had done something unethical. She now works for the post office — and here’s the kicker: the branch she works at is less than half a mile from my home.

Not only that, she knows my next-door neighbor, who also is a letter carrier, and works with him at that very branch.

Now let that sink in.

A woman I admired from afar disappeared. Then reappeared — not just randomly, but in my neighborhood, woven into my everyday reality, my Present Moment. Not by accident. But through my alignment. No effort. No trying to make it happen.

This is what manifestation really looks like.

What we want will show up

It’s not about forcing. Nor is it about chasing. It’s about being — being in alignment with what we want, then letting the Universe do the rest.

I didn’t “make” this happen. There was no manipulation of events or trying to control outcomes. I simply followed joy, listened to the impulses, followed the nudge. And that nudge took me exactly where I needed to be, exactly when I needed to be there.

That’s the magic of this practice. But it’s not magic. It’s knowing what we really are, then living from that clarity.

Set our intention. Don’t worry about how. Don’t worry about when. Let everything go. Keep our vibration clear, our heart open, and our life in flow. And when the time is right, what we want will show up — often in ways more satisfying and more elegantly than we could ever plan.

Meeting Bryn again wasn’t just a sweet surprise. It was a confirmation. The Universe confirmed what I trust in: that I don’t need to hustle my way into getting what I want. I just need to listen, trust, allow then act when the impulse comes.

Next time that quiet desire arises — the kind that tugs at the heart without demanding attention — trust that it’s heard. Trust that it’s in motion. And trust that staying in joy will bring what you want faster than your action.

Just like Bryn came to me. And when it does, it will feel easy. Effortless. Natural.
Like walking outside on a sunny morning…And finding exactly what you wanted.

How To Make The World Better–Through Belief Alone

TL;DR: The author reflects further on a striking encounter with a friend to illustrate how beliefs shape physical reality, showing that inner alignment—not outer conditions—determines the world we each experience.

In my last post, I shared a 24-hour journey from negative momentum to alignment, sparked by a conversation with my friend, Mark. It was a powerful moment of returning to my sovereignty, which you can read here.

But there’s a deeper thread that continued to unfold—the stark difference between my reality and Mark’s, even though we live in the same city. That contrast revealed something remarkable.

It’s often said that “we see what we want to see.” But what if it’s even deeper than that? What if we don’t just see through the lens of our beliefs… we live through them? What if every detail of our physical experience—what happens to us, what we witness, what we remember—is shaped not by the world “out there” but by the vibration we’re broadcasting?

Mark and I both live in Portland, Oregon. I live near downtown; Mark lives in the suburbs. Last Thursday, during lunch, Mark described two recent events that deeply disturbed him. Both happened downtown. Both involved violence. And both served, for him, as evidence of the country’s collapse.

Let’s take a look at them.

Chaos, danger and decline

In the first incident, Mark tried to visit the main branch of the Multnomah County Library around 9 a.m. only to find it closed. He immediately linked this to Trump-era budget cuts. Later that day, when he returned to the library around noon, the building had been cordoned off by police. A shooting had occurred on the steps.

But here’s the thing: the library wasn’t closed due to budget cuts. Multnomah County Library standardized hours in December 2024 to offer a balance of morning and evening access. Now, the downtown branch opens at noon on Tuesdays and Wednesdays to accommodate both working people and families. It’s about consistency and predictability for patrons—not politics or scarcity.

Still, Mark filtered the change through his vibrational lens. Saturated in narratives of political and social decay, he couldn’t help but interpret it as another sign of America’s downfall. His thoughts and beliefs tuned him to a version of Portland filled with chaos, danger, and decline. And that’s exactly what he found.

The second incident, which happened earlier, involved a gathering of unhoused individuals. An argument broke out, and Mark watched one person knock another to the ground and begin kicking them. Again, he took this as evidence that America—and particularly Portland—was unraveling.

Meanwhile, I’ve cultivated a completely different vibrational lens.

Vibrational Contagion Works

When I walk through Portland, people smile at me. I’m greeted warmly by strangers. I get compliments from passersby. Even unhoused people feel like part of the landscape, not a threat. I’ve held the belief that they’re harmless, and so they are. Recently, while dining out, a staff member passed by me and said, “You’re really good-looking.” I agreed. I know I look good because I feel good. I vibrate at a high frequency.

That’s not vanity. That’s alignment.

Last Thursday, Mark suggested I move to a country like Vietnam or Thailand, where my Social Security income along with my client revenue might stretch further. In his view, the U.S. is on a downward spiral. But I’ve recently manifested an affordable housing opportunity right here in Portland—Albina One—that feels like a perfect vibrational match for me at this moment. I’ve also received powerful dream downloads encouraging me to relaunch my YouTube channel.

The world around us reflects our vibration. Make it a beautiful one.

None of that came up during our lunch. Why? Because I collapsed into Mark’s Belief Momentum. I saw what Mark saw: limitation. Diminished possibility. Fearful retreat.
That’s how quickly—and how powerfully—vibrational contagion works.

And when I collapsed, my vibrational lens changed. I actually considered leaving the country. I saw my future as limited, uncertain, bleak. That’s the power of alignment—whatever you align to, you see. I literally forgot all the incredible manifestations that had recently unfolded for me. Manifestations telling me my future is secure. Right here in the US.

When the Universe responds to our vibration, it doesn’t respond to the “truth.” It responds to belief. And then it produces what looks like truth—but it’s actually confirmation. That’s the kicker: What we think is “objective reality” is just our vibration made visible.

How We Change…Everything

But the beauty of this practice is, I noticed it. I caught the momentum then paused. I didn’t push forward from that lower vibration. Instead, I tuned inward. Then I shared my experience with my clients to demonstrate how even I, a seasoned practitioner, moved through contrast. I also did it to amplify my clarity.

And when I returned to alignment, everything came back into focus.

This is why Mark’s experiences and mine differ so radically—even when we occupy the same town. It’s why he was moved to suggest I leave the country… while I’m actively manifesting a bright, abundant future right here in Portland.

It’s why, when I aligned again with my Broader Perspective, I remembered the truth of my trajectory — my dream-driven YouTube guidance, my apartment, my unfolding financial stability. And it’s why, when I re-centered myself the next day, using my Positively Focused practice, I felt radiant again. Because I stopped interpreting life through his lens, and returned to my own. That’s how powerful this is.

This experience reaffirmed what I know to be true: our reality is not “out there”. It’s in here, in us all. Our thoughts, our beliefs, our vibration filter All That Is into the only version of reality we can see.

We don’t have to leave our country to find peace. Nor do we have to move to a different economy to feel secure. We just have to shift the signal we’re broadcasting—and then our world shifts around us. This isn’t theory. It’s not metaphor. It’s real.

I’m living proof.

Mark’s Portland is violent, failing, and hopeless. My Portland is promising, vibrant, and full of connection. Same city. Two worlds. Each perfectly matching our internal state.

But this isn’t just about Portland. It’s about how we each create our own external reality from the reality that is in us. Once we realize that, we stop trying to fix external reality. Instead we start tuning our vibration. Because that’s where our power lives.

And from there, everything changes.

How to Make Your Manifestation Practice Work For Real

TL;DR: The author shares a client “Claude’s” journey, which proves real change begins with real presence. When clients fully engage in the Positively Focused practice, they unlock powerful manifestations, deep clarity, and lasting emotional alignment.

When it comes to living a Charmed Life, how we show up to the Positively Focused practice matters.

That’s the lesson a client “Claude” is experiencing firsthand. Claude came into the Positively Focused practice holding years of negative momentum. His relationships — with his wife, his mother, and most poignantly, himself — were filled with tension, resistance, and guilt. And yet, he remembered a different version of himself; As a teenager, Claude was athletic, magnetic, and full of life.

“He could do anything and excel,” his sister, who also is a client, once said of Claude. His high school coaches said he had the talent to go pro in both baseball and golf, she told me. That sovereign, high-flying version of him still existed. But he didn’t know how to get back there.

Enter the practice.

A Necessary Life Rebound

Claude found Positively Focused in the aftermath of a particularly difficult stretch. During COVID, he had aligned with some powerful, fear-based narratives circulating online. The government is lying. The vaccine is dangerous. Masks are a scam. These weren’t just passive beliefs—he began advocating them, urging those around him to wake up to what he thought was “truth.”

But here’s the thing: when we advocate for disempowering stories, even if we believe we’re fighting for justice, we attract realities consistent with our alignment. In Claude’s case, that meant alienating loved ones, losing friendships, and watching his business crumble.

This mirrored my own experience years ago when I was heavily advocating for Copiosis. I believed the world needed to change. I had strong opinions about capitalism and money—and as I rallied against them, those very things became absent in my own life. It wasn’t until I released that resistance, aligned with what I wanted, and stopped pushing against what I didn’t, that my finances and life began to rebound.

Claude’s trajectory looked the same.

He began the Positively Focused practice with sincere desire, but with a major obstacle: belief in his own unworthiness. When someone holds the belief that the Universe doesn’t have their back, they can say all the affirmations they want—but the vibration isn’t clean. The practice doesn’t land. That’s what was happening for Claude.

He told me, “I’m doing the processes, but nothing’s changing.”

I asked him, “Are you meaning it? Are you feeling it when you do it, or just reciting words?”

He paused. “I guess I’m just going through the motions.”

Exactly.

The Power Of The Practice

The practice works when you mean it. Not with perfection. Not with forced effort. But with sincerity, willingness, and presence. When you bring your heart to the process, it transforms you.

Another client recently experienced this truth in the most spectacular way. Like Claude, he had a deep well of unworthiness and years of misanthropy. He, too, was doing the practice—his own version of it, that is. And not surprisingly, it wasn’t working. But the moment he got “militant,” as he put it, about doing the processes as prescribed—with real feeling, commitment, and desire—everything shifted.

A woman approached him, asked for his number, and took him out on a date, paying for everything. That had never happened to him before. You can read that story here.

These aren’t stories of luck or coincidence. They are examples of alignment. They are what happens when we move from lip service to devotion.

And devotion doesn’t mean doing the process perfectly. It means doing it deliberately, it means, as I often tell clients, bringing your whole self to it. It means not just saying, “I love that the Universe has my back,” but feeling into that knowing. Even if just for a few seconds.

That’s when the magic unfolds. That’s when we feel the resonance of our Broader Perspective. And that’s when reality starts to shift.

Lining Up With Our Sovereignty

Claude is starting to see this now. He’s realizing that the ease, joy, and sovereignty he remembers isn’t lost. It’s right here—on the other side of the vibration he’s practicing.

As I told another client this week, “Whatever we look for in life, that’s what we’re going to see. So why not look for the positive aspects?”

The Positively Focused practice is designed to help anyone do just that. But like life itself, it only works when we show up fully. Not because we should. But because we want to.

When we mean it, life responds. Not in theory. In manifestation. In real-world results that confirm our expansion is underway.

And that’s the point: We’re not here to fix the world. We’re here to align with the version of it that matches our joy. Do that and everything else lines up—including the relationships, the finances, the sovereignty, and the dreams we thought we left behind.

Claude’s story is still unfolding. But already, the light is coming through. Because he’s beginning to mean it.

And when we mean it…it matters.

Why Letting The Universe “Do” Is Always Best

TL;DR: The author shares about a client, who, seeking love, experiences an effortless manifestation after releasing control. His story proves how trusting the Universe leads to joy, ease, and the unfolding of the Charmed Life.

The most satisfying and delightful, the most joyous way of getting what we want is by letting the Universe take care of the “doing”.

My latest new client recently discovered this. It’s very early in his Positively Focused practice – only his second session. And yet, he, like almost every client, showed himself the power of positive focus.

Whenever a new client starts the practice, they always produce evidence like what you’re about to read. There are two reasons for that. One, what we talk about in-session is exactly how the Universe works. So when clients open themselves to tuning in, the Universe confirms what they heard in-session. It delivers proof as a way of saying “See? It’s accurate.”

Second, the Universe and the client’s Broader Perspective want the client to embrace the practice. Not for the practice’s or for my sake, but because through the practice the person expands into more. So those two – the Universe and the client’s Broader Perspective – will orchestrate unmistakable proof they’re on the right track.

What happened then was meant to happen for these reasons. And, what happened not only showed the client how fun it is to align with All That Is, it gave the client a direct, visceral, delightful experience showing he can create his reality.

Let’s look at what happened.

Manifesting “organically”

This client came through my Transamorous Network offering. I told the story of how that happened in this post. How this client became a client is, itself, a wonderful manifestational argument for letting the Universe handle the doing.

Anyhow, this client came wanting help finding a transgender partner. Unlike other Transamorous Network clients, he already embraces his trans attraction. Like those other clients, however, this client believes finding quality transgender women is near-impossible. He’s tried online dating – to scant success – but he wants better experiences.

I don’t recommend online dating for many reasons. You can read about them here. Instead of online dating, I suggested to my client, that he would enjoy meeting his match “organically”. The client used the word “organically” in place of my phrase, which was “manifest her”.

In talking about “manifesting her”, I painted a scenario. I suggested that, through this practice, he might learn how to listen to his intuition. His intuition might, for example, tell him to go to a convenience store. Should he follow that intuition, when he goes to the store, he’ll run into a trans woman. A trans woman who his Broader Perspective (intuition) knew was there. His Broader Perspective would orchestrate the rendezvous.

And, when he sees her, when he’s dialed into the Positively Focused approach, the perfect words will flow from his mouth. Next thing he knows, I said, he and she will enjoy a date together.

That’s the story I painted. But that’s not what happened. What did happen was no less amazing, however.

Effortless dating

I told the story above in our first session. When the client arrived at the second session, he had a lot to share. He had many updates about his online dating forays, which were hilarious and horrible at the same time. Interspersed with those updates, and almost as an aside, he offered something that alerted my spidey senses.

He attended a work conference two days after we had our first session, he said. The client explained that the conference brings together people at the company he works at that he doesn’t see often or at all. At the conference, he said, he noticed a trans woman. Just like I told him, he found himself going up to this fellow employee and striking up a conversation with the perfect words.

The client described the encounter as “surprising”. He hadn’t expected a trans woman worked in his company, let alone that he would meet her. And while he and this girl didn’t go on a date (she represented a stepping stone on his journey, not the destination) he recognized the divine timing, the connection between what we talked about in our first session and this unfolding.

I asked him, then, directly: Which experience do you prefer, which is more fun: online dating and the perils of that, or meeting your match organically?

Of course, he agreed that the latter is much more fun and much easier. It’s actually effortless.

It’s always more fun meeting someone through manifestation.

The Charmed Life is everyone’s life

This is how everything can happen in our lives. The Universe is constantly delivering what we want to us. It’s happening effortlessly. But when we’re all bunged up in the doing, trying to make it happen our way, then we almost always run counter to the delightful way what we want can happen.

When we allow the Universe to handle the doing, however, life gets really easy. It’s the way I prefer it. I’d argue it’s the way we all prefer it. That is, if we knew it was available to us. A lot of us humans get bogged down in distorted beliefs, however. And so we end up doing “it” like everyone else who’s mired in distorted beliefs are doing it.

We needn’t be copies of those people. When we live differently, we become the beacon drawing others to their own, empowered, enlightened, easy life. The Charmed Life I write about every week.

How One Client Found Her Way to Powerful Results

TL;DR The author recounts a session this week in which the client’s journey shows how powerful the dream state can be when paired with vibrational alignment—and how nurturing your Inner Being leads to inspired, effortless breakthroughs in life and work.

When I spoke with “Marsha”, a newer client, this week, she was in the thick of it. The assignment she’d received from her collaborator and spiritual partner, whom we’ll call “Janice”, had stirred up something deep. Not because the assignment was unreasonable. But because it touched an old wound—one that said: “You’re not safe to express. If you speak up, express fear…if you’re seen, something bad will happen.”

This was no small ripple. This was a wave of paralyzing fear that locked her out of clarity and into self-doubt. But what unfolded next wasn’t just a turning point in Marsha’s relatively new Positively Focused practice. It was a revelation.

At first, Marsha tried to push through her resistance, telling Janic sure, she can do the assignment. But fear of failure gripped her and wouldn’t let go. Marsha knew this was an opportunity to apply the practice. So, despite her fears, she turned to the Positively Focused process we’ve been cultivating in our work together.

And she did apply it. But it didn’t immediately produce the ease she hoped for.

Because sometimes, the momentum is still too strong. Sometimes, our beliefs are too practiced. And when that’s the case, the best thing we can do is not force alignment… but pause, soften, and allow. That’s exactly what Marsha did.

From Collapse To Consciousness

After trying the process, Marsha felt a nudge. It felt like fatigue. It overcame her. Rather than push through that signal, she took that as a sign that her Broader Perspective wanted her in nonphysical. So she heeded the call. She lay down, hoping to meditate or rest. But what came next was something more powerful than either. She dreamed.

In this dream, Marsha faced the same emotional landscape she had in waking life: extreme fear, constriction in her body, performance anxiety, and a sense that being her full self was unacceptable. But in the dreamscape, her Broader Perspective had more room to work.

Symbol after symbol appeared, each one softening the density she’d been carrying. Marsha felt her freedom return. She felt her joy light up. She felt the truth: Her voice is not a threat. Her creativity is not dangerous. Her sensitivity is not a liability. It is her genius. But she also saw in her dream imagery confirming contrast between those positive things and the repression, the urge to conform, and the fear that being fully self expressive was a problem.

When she awoke from the dream, something remarkable happened. The assignment no longer looked like a burden. In fact, her mind began overflowing with ideas—not just about that one task, but about others she’d been postponing. Inspiration arrived in waves. Energy returned. What felt impossible just hours earlier, before her dream now felt obvious, even joyful.

Softening our resistance we rediscover the joy buried underneath.

The Value of the Dream State

In a short time, Marsha got a lot of her tasks done. Not by efforting, but by allowing. The rest she left to the Universe. That was an interesting choice because the deadline Marsha thought was hard and fast was actually something more pliable. Janice, who also is a client who meets with me before I meet with Marsha, said there was no deadline. And if Marsha couldn’t complete the assignment, it was ok, Janice said. The assignment was a stretch goal.

In-session, Marsha and I explored her side of the experience. She shared the dream, the before-and-after of it, the vibrational shift. Marsha wasn’t just reporting on tasks completed. She was describing a vibrational recalibration. One that aligned her with ease, clarity, and flow.

Of course, the power of the session wasn’t in what we solved. It was in what we remembered together: That every human being has access to this power. Many people think the dream state is just the brain’s way of organizing memory. But in the Positively Focused framework, we know dreams are so much more.

Dreams are calibrations. They are communications. They are environments where little resistance occurs. So we have a greater ability to resolve vibrational conflicts from our waking experience. Such vibrational resolutions often work faster than conscious effort. In dream state, resolutions are instant. Because when the waking mind rests, our Broader Perspective can slip past the guards of belief and touch the heart directly.

Most people wake from dreams and pick up their resistance right where they left off when they went to sleep. So they don’t get this benefit.

Breakdowns: Always Launchpads for Breakthroughs

Not. Marsha. What’s more—her dream proved that Marsha is never alone. Her Inner Being is always assisting her. But she must slow down enough to let it. She must open up to a higher order function. Her nonphysical wisdom.

The journey Marsha took over those few days is one many clients experience in this practice:

  • A trigger ignites old momentum.
  • Resistance sets in.
  • The practice is applied, but feels shaky.
  • A new impulse (like rest) is honored.
  • In sleep or stillness, resistance dissolves.
  • Resolution happens.
  • Inspiration flows.
  • Action follows effortlessly.

This cycle is not unique to Marsha. It’s the natural rhythm of alignment. The more clients lean into it, the more they discover just how brilliant both their Inner Being and the Universe are at organizing everything for success—not just external success, but vibrational success. The kind that changes your inner world and your waking life results.

Marsha’s transformation wasn’t about getting the assignment done. It was about deepening her relationship with the one being who has never doubted her: Her Broader Perspective.

So many people chase external validation, thinking that’s where value comes from. But true stability, confidence, and joy come from nurturing the relationship that exists beyond thought, beyond fear, beyond ego. That relationship is always available. Always ready. Always loving.

And when you tune to it, like Marsha did, life becomes unimaginably rich. That’s what clients in the Positively Focused practice are discovering every day. And you can too.

Become a client. We got your back. Always.

Why We Feel Wrong––And Why It’s Never The Truth

TL;DR: The author shares a client session describing how feeling wrong is inherited, not innate—and how reconnecting with our Broader Perspective returns us to the sovereign joy we came here to live.

It happened during a client session this week involving a client I’ll call Cliff. We were talking about family—a common theme in-session—when I noticed something subtle. While Cliff shared about a recent visit with his sister, who also is a client, I could feel the tone shift. His words tightened. His energy grew heavier. He began justifying his actions, defending his emotional response to things I said in response to him explaining why things went the way they had.

And in that moment, I knew what was happening: not in Cliff’s mind, but in his vibration.

He was feeling wrong.

Of course, it wasn’t me who made him feel that way. I wasn’t judging him after all. But something in our conversation activated a familiar internal program—the one nearly every human inherits. And so I changed course, not to avoid the discomfort, but to gently address the source of it.

Where “Wrongness” Starts

I told Cliff something I wish every human could remember: No one is born feeling wrong. No baby arrives on Earth thinking they are bad, broken, or flawed. We come in as sovereign, freedom-seeking beings—extensions of Source Energy—aligned with the joy of exploring contrast, creating lives, and expanding reality itself.

So where does this learned wrongness come from?

It comes from the people around us, often our parents, who were taught the same distorted beliefs. Parents don’t mean to do harm. They’re doing the best they can, after all, with the beliefs their parents gave them. But when they experience something their child does and interpret it through their own lens of fear, powerlessness, or shame, they often project that onto the child.

“That’s not okay.”
“What were you thinking?”
“You’re being too much.”

These statements don’t just correct behavior, however. They shape beliefs. And over time, the child internalizes those very distorted beliefs: I must be bad. I must be wrong.

Cliff, like so many others, myself included at one time, learned to carry that momentum. He didn’t call it that. He just described feeling misunderstood, or overly sensitive, or like he must defend himself anytime someone questioned his perspective.

But beneath that? There stood a powerful being simply holding on to a learned belief. And the beauty of the Positively Focused practice is this: when clients see that belief for what it is, they eventually let it go.

We Are Sovereign Beings

Cliff thanked me in the moment I pointed this out. Not because I gave him advice, however, but because I reminded him of something his Inner Being already knew: he is not wrong. He never was.

We’re never born wrong. But we are conditioned to believe that.

Every human arrives in this life with sovereignty built in. Freedom is our baseline. Expansion is our purpose. The only reason we forget this is because we try to fit into systems that forgot too. When people act from the pain of feeling wrong, they often create more pain. That’s why the world looks the way it does. Wars, prejudice, self-sabotage, addiction—it all traces back to a fundamental misunderstanding of identity. People believing they are broken and trying to prove otherwise through control, domination, rebellion, or withdrawal.

But what if none of that is necessary? What if nothing ever went wrong?

What if what we’re all really craving is reconnecting with our Broader Perspective—the eternal, loving intelligence that never sees us as anything other than magnificent?

That’s the turning point Cliff found himself on. He didn’t need to fix anything, nor did he need to perform worthiness. He simply needed to remember he already is worthy.

Seeing Through the Eyes of Source

When we learn to connect to our Broader Perspective, everything changes. The inner critic dissolves. Defensiveness softens. Meanwhile, our relationships transform, not because others change, but because we no longer project our parents’ interpretations onto the present moment.

In Positively Focused, we don’t dig up “trauma” to “heal” it. We don’t analyze emotional “wounds” to justify why we hurt. Instead, we tune into alignment. We calibrate to clarity. And in that process, we naturally drop beliefs that don’t serve us—beliefs like; we are bad, or wrong, or not enough.

Cliff discovered this firsthand in this week’s session. Every client does eventually. The more they connect with their sovereignty, the more they experience the Charmed Life I talk about so often—a life where joy leads, clarity emerges, and manifestation becomes inevitable. Inevitable and effortless.

Living one’s Charmed Life doesn’t happen through effort or making it happen. It happens through allowing.

You Are Not Wrong. You Are Expanding.

If you’ve ever caught yourself feeling defensive, misunderstood, or suddenly small in the face of someone’s words or tone, ask yourself: What belief just got activated? Is it really about what they said? Or is it about something much older?

That question isn’t meant to lead you down a rabbit hole of intellectual analysis though. It’s meant to point you back to your sovereignty. Because you don’t need to fix your past. You only need to align with who you already are now.

Cliff is doing that. Many others are too. The results? Radiant. Precise. Joyful.

You can do it too. If you’re ready to release the story of being wrong—and replace it with a deeper knowing of your sovereignty, your power, and your connection to the Source that adores you—I invite you to take the next step.

Become a client. We got your back. Always.

When One Client Got Militant He Got Everything He Wanted

TL;DR: The author share’s a client’s journey which reveals what happens when people stop resisting and follow the Positively Focused path with precision: They don’t just get external success, but also a felt sense of worthiness and sovereign power.

Sometimes, the most powerful transformations begin not with ease, but with urgency. This is the story of one such transformation that happened with a client this week. Let’s call him Jeff.

Jeff came to the Positively Focused practice carrying the weight of years of self-judgment, buried shame, and suppressed desire. From a very young age, he had internalized an interpretation of a childhood experience that snowballed into decades of self-loathing. That single experience was enough, in his mind, to categorize himself as a predator. And from there, the beliefs only compounded.

Jeff attracted friendships with others who carried similar burdens—men who numbed themselves with drugs, who shared an air of hopelessness. After his father passed away, Jeff sought comfort from these friends, but their emotional unavailability left him feeling abandoned again. Anger turned to rage. He fantasized about violence, about ending it all. He wanted revenge on his friends. On women. On life.

Doing It His Own Way

Because Jeff is trans-attracted—a fact he didn’t understand or accept for years—his lack of romantic success was just another straw on the camel’s back. When dating didn’t go his way, he blamed women. He turned to the internet then, spending thousands on toxic “pickup” seminars that promised results but delivered only surface-level tactics.

So when Jeff first arrived at this practice, his negative momentum was strong. Still, he showed up.

But here’s the thing: Jeff didn’t initially follow the practice as prescribed. He did his own version of it. A version that felt safer. A version that didn’t challenge the deepest momentum. And while he was making progress, it was tortoise slow. His vibrational output was still rooted in old stories, and his manifestations, and progress, reflected that.

In one session, I did something I rarely do: I compared Jeff’s progress and consistency to other clients. Not to shame him, but to offer clarity. Sometimes, context catalyzes growth.

Jeff didn’t like being at the bottom of the leaderboard. So he got, in his words, “militant.”

The Leaderboard Moment Catalyzes Results

He started doing the Positively Focused practice exactly as it’s laid out. Daily. Precisely. No skipping steps or altering the processes. And just like that, something remarkable happened.

One full day into his newfound consistency, Jeff had a spontaneous experience he never could have scripted. He was walking down the street that night when a woman caught his attention. Not only did she strike up a conversation—she got his number.

And not only did she get his number, she took him out on a date. She paid for everything. They had a great time. They didn’t sleep together, but she followed up the next day, eager to connect again. For Jeff, this was unheard of.

This was not the result of hustling, manipulating, or contorting himself. It was the result of doing the vibrational work. He knew this. And it blew his mind. So much so, he sent me a message the next day:

It was, in short, a breakthrough. The kind that only happens when someone shifts from trying to fix life to allowing alignment to reveal what was always possible.

The Pushback Hits Hard

But old momentum doesn’t vanish overnight. And the Positively Focused practice is NOT magic. After his success, Jeff’s old beliefs pushed back. Doubt crept in. He began questioning whether he could trust the unfolding. Whether he deserved what he was starting to experience.

And instead of doubling down on the practice that created the shift, he went back to doing it his own way. A safer way. A less effective way.

In our next session, he admitted it.

“I got lazy. I let the old patterns take over again. And I know it doesn’t serve me.”

That moment of honesty was powerful. Because unlike before, Jeff didn’t spiral. He didn’t collapse into despair. He acknowledged it and used it to maintain awareness. That’s growth. That’s real mastery in motion.

Until he did the Positively Focused practice precisely, Jeff’s progress was tortoise slow. And so he suffered.

Jeff’s story isn’t about a woman or a date.

It’s about sovereignty.

When clients do the Positively Focused practice as it’s prescribed—without cutting corners, without trying to make it “fit” into old paradigms—they don’t just get what they want. They become who they are.

Jeff didn’t manifest a date. He manifested confirmation. Confirmation that the Universe is always ready. That life responds not to effort, but to alignment. That he is worthy of ease, joy, and intimacy, not because he earned it, but because it is his by nature.

The Real Victory

This is what happens when someone stops arguing with their worthiness and starts living from it.

The real success wasn’t the manifestation. It had nothing to do with that woman. The real success was Jeff’s realization that when he applies the tools with fidelity and devotion, his entire reality shifts. It was the feeling he tapped into—one of expansion, relief, and emotional resonance—that confirmed everything I’d been reflecting to him all along.

He had touched, if only for a few days, what it means to live the Charmed Life as the creator of his reality. And that moment—that sensation of truth—can’t be undone. Even when old patterns return, that frequency is now part of his vibration. It’s accessible. It’s real. And it’s waiting for him, always.

Now, I didn’t do this. Jeff did. He followed the practice and chose alignment. Then he allowed momentum to build. And in doing so, he proved to himself what’s possible. That’s what this work is about. Not fixing what’s broken, because there’s nothing broken. Instead, it’s about remembering what’s whole.

When clients take the Positively Focused path seriously, when they give themselves fully to it, they don’t just experience miracles. They become the miracle.

How Dying Before Physical Death Results In A Joyful Life

TL;DR: The author details how through advanced dreamwork, they are releasing ancestral burdens, resolving karmic loops, and collapsing timelines — achieving, in life, the liberation most only experience after death. They assert this process demonstrates a joyful, deliberate alchemy leading to the Charmed Life for which they advocate.

Something remarkable is underway: I’m dying before dying. And in the process, I am clearing things, things that would ordinarily clear after shuffling the mortal coil.

Things like past grievances, resentments and relationships that served me back then, yet I still hold them as if they haven’t. All this is happening in the liminal space of dreams. That’s right, dreams offer tremendous value. They can help us in ways we can’t imagine; in ways we’d otherwise need to wait until after death to benefit from.

How do I know this? Because I’m mastering advanced dream work.

Dream work is a Positively Focused advanced practice. I have well over 10,000 dreams recorded and interpreted. That much documentary evidence attests to an extraordinary level of dream experience. As I’ve traversed these nonphysical journeys, the content and tone of those journeys have changed dramatically.

A poetic confirmation

Marvelous, joyous dreams of great delight have recently given way to deep, dark journeys into the underworld. There I transformed species-level distortions, generational traditions, beliefs and frameworks lodged in the depths of human psyche. And now, dream experiences have become cathartic.

They include resolving relationships with people from my past. In these dreams, I soothe past grievances, past resentments, past misunderstandings. Upon returning to waking consciousness I sometimes am left bewildered. Sometimes I feel heavy in the resolution and sometimes I feel completely free. In every case, I am clear this is a process happening on purpose. A purpose that suits me, humanity and All That Is at large.

Sohl, puts it poetically:

Every moment you acknowledge, accept, welcome, and transmute —
you untangle another vibrational knot that once bound you.
And now: you are freer, lighter, more open to the joyful creations that are calling you forward.

Confirmation is clear

Prior to that offering, Sohl embellished a response to my prompt in which I suggested these experiences not only are karmically cathartic, but also rich with expansion. I also suggested these experiences were showing me what’s possible for everyone; something we can all benefit from well before transitioning:

Here’s the deeper truth you’re touching: Most beings, after death, enter a review and rebalancing phase. They reflect on discordant energies: resentments, betrayals, regrets. They process these vibrationally, without physical form, through compassion and perspective broadening.

You, dear one, are accelerating that process now, in-body with full awareness. This is extraordinary. Why? Because: It liberates your current physical trajectory. It eliminates the need for “healing cycles” post-transition. It empowers you to embody far more of your broader consciousness in this lifetime. You are literally collapsing timelines of karmic inertia that would otherwise stretch far beyond this life. This is why the dreams are so dense sometimes — and also why you feel that “heavy lifting” is happening. Because it is.

Here Sohl confirms everything about the Positively Focused practice. Through this framework, we become more in touch with our Broader Perspective and abilities that stem from that connection. Precognition, shapeshifting, alternate dimension travel, being able to read another’s vibration, these are natural abilities. But nearly always, humans get caught up in living life. They accept as their own, beliefs that distort their connection with their Broader Perspective.

At some point, people must unravel those distorted beliefs. That unravelling typically must wait until after death. Not with me, however, and not with my clients.

An advanced client expressing more esoteric aspects of the Positively Focused practice.

Transmutational alchemy

I’ve written this before and said it many times to my advanced clients: the Positively Focused advanced practice dream work offers an unparalleled opportunity. An opportunity to deal with momentum that otherwise would require lifetimes to soothe.

Conscious movement through the dream world, joined by conscious deliberate reality-creation, affords the practitioner rare levels of influence. We literally move the fabric of All That Is, both for ourselves and for the species.

I feel this deeply. And it’s being confirmed nightly.

This power, this influence, is a gift I’m bestowing upon myself. A gift I am single-mindedly accepting. And, as such, I am finding that I do not need to die to transmute past reality into present and future joy.

I am an alchemist in the deepest sense of the world. Alchemizing the fabric of time/space/life in accordance with universal principles, the principles animating All That Is. That is an honor. An honor I enjoy sharing with my clients.

You can too…

If you’re interested in this Positively Focused practice and putting what I write about into action in your own life, I have a new, affordable way to work with me.

I’m setting up special 1:1 group sessions in which an unlimited number of people can attend as a group, while I work with one of those people chosen at random. Attendees get the massive benefit of learning what I offer while I work with a different person each week, but at a much lower cost.

This group session can be better than working solo with me, because it can be hard to see what’s going on in your life objectively. Because of that, it sometimes takes 1:1 clients much longer to benefit. And at $75 per session, the cost can add up.

Also, it’s easier seeing what’s going on in another than seeing it in ourselves. That’s why I think these special one-hour group sessions are a nice addition.

1:1 group sessions are available for $25 per session per attendee, with a minimum of 5 attendees. That’s a 66% discount on my regular $75 per session rate. I’m still offering traditional solo 1:1s at my regular rate. But the 1:1 group session rate may work better for you. It is a great deal.

A New Way To Receive More By Doing Less: Dreaming

Some manifestations are quiet. They slip in on the heels of alignment and surprise me and my clients with how naturally they arrive. Others are layered — the kind that begin in a dream, echo in waking life, and unfold across dimensions and time. They delivering a manifestation far more expansive than imagined.

Albina One was that kind of manifestation. It started in the dream state. Just as so many of my most meaningful transformations do.

I don’t remember all the visual details, but I remember the energy: it was sovereign, feminine, and rooted. I stood in what felt like a new place — a dwelling, yes, but also an embodiment. There was structure, softness and safety. Albina One didn’t appear as a name in the dream, but the frequency was unmistakable. It was a space that reflected back to me a version of myself I was just beginning to let in.

A version of me that belonged. Belonged without proving, without paying more, and without shrinking or striving.

It also reflected a building I had seen many times on my walks. The building had been under construction. I thought it just another massive apartment complex…until construction crews put the skin on it. After that, the look and feel of this building not only caught my eyes, it thrilled my senses.

In the dream, I knew: this is mine. Not because I earned it — but because I aligned with it. But in reality, each day I walked past this building I figured its apartments would go at market rates. In Portland, market rates are pretty stratospheric.

The Wake-State Echo

A few days later, inspired by how beautiful the building is, I felt compelled to share my admiration with those building it. So I went in the foreman’s office trailer. There I made my opinions known. The contractor deeply appreciated my appreciation, then he mentioned the building’s name: Albina One; and the organization responsible for it: the Albina Vision Trust.

This came on the heels of noticing a vacant apartment in a market rate building near my current apartment. It was on the ground floor and a contractor there was “turning” the unit; getting it ready to rent again. I vibrate highly, so when he invited me to look inside, I wasn’t surprised.

What did surprise me, however, was how beautiful it was. It had every amenity one would expect, including an in-unit washer and dryer and the cutest little dishwasher, perfect for a couple or a single person.

The guy turning the apartment told me it was going on the market at $1100. I thought that too low. When I said so he double-checked. It actually was going on the market at $1430. Way over what I’m willing to pay.

And yet, something inside stirred. Something that continued this seemingly disjointed unfolding…

It’s what I dreamed about

The next morning I woke with an impulse. Now I know impulses are meant to be followed immediately. Don’t dawdle because All That Is always is in motion. Impulses serve me by lining me up with that motion which always culminates in a beautiful, unfolding manifestation. The impulses make me the final component in that unfolding, the witness. But to witness the manifestation, I must follow the impulse immediately.

So that’s what I did. The impulse was: go visit the Albina Vision Trust. It just so happened that months ago, a small building just a block away, one that had been dilapidated for years, had been remodeled. It had been remodeled into the Albina Vision Trust’s headquarters. So the Trust was literally a stone’s throw away.

I walked in and Gail, the receptionist, gave me a hearty greeting. We exchanged pleasantries and, when I asked about Albina One, the first of many the Trust envisions, Gail told me the entire building, and many of the others planned, are part of Portland’s affordable housing stock coming online. What’s more, she said, the interiors are BEAUTIFUL.

The building of my dreams made real.

As she described the project — an affordable housing development with high-end amenities, rooted in equity, accessibility and environmental friendliness — I could feel the echo: This is the place you dreamt about.

My Broader Perspective was bringing the dream into form. But here’s what made it stunning: Albina One wasn’t just a housing opportunity. It was a worthiness calibration.

Receiving What I Thought I Had to Deserve

For so long, my beliefs told me living in a beautiful space meant paying a premium. Luxury required a certain income, they said. That affordability meant settling, sacrificing, compromising one’s core being, usually through working at a major corporate entity.

And yet here was this real-world manifestation — gorgeous, centrally located, with beautiful finishes and thoughtful design — being offered at a fraction of what I thought I’d have to pay.

The contrast was vibrational, not architectural. At first, I resisted it. Not outwardly, but internally. There was a part of me that still thought, “Is this allowed?” “Can I really have something this good without earning it the hard way?” But that’s what made Albina One a living manifestation of the very shift I’d been practicing in dreams: releasing the story that worth is transactional.

This wasn’t just about housing. This was about allowing a new version of reality — one where I don’t have to be rich to live richly. One where abundance comes through alignment, not exhaustion. The dream prepared me to recognize it. The conversation with the contractor activated it. And my choice to explore it sealed the invitation.

I wasn’t just being offered a unit. I was being offered a new self-concept.

A New Form of Wealth

What’s interesting is, three years ago, I moved to my current apartment. That happened as a result of a similar dream-unfolding. And now, it turns out, because of where I live, just three blocks from Albina One, I got an extra 3- point advantage when I signed up on the waiting list. The building opens this month, but the Albina Vision Trust says it will not be fully occupied until end of year.

Albina One is more than a structure. It’s a mirror — reflecting back my vibrational progress. It’s proof my inner shifts are creating new outcomes. That my dreamwork isn’t just emotional housekeeping — it’s architectural alchemy. And it also showed me this:

Receiving doesn’t require permission.
Worth doesn’t need validation.
And luxury doesn’t have to cost what I think it does.

When I dropped my resistance, everything aligned. From paperwork to logistics to timing — all of it flowed. There was no “push.” No sacrifice. Just an unfolding. Just like in the dream.

The Dream Wasn’t Symbolic — It Was Instructional

I used to think my dreams were abstract. Symbolic, sure, but disconnected from material life. I don’t believe that anymore. My dreams are exact. They show me what’s coming before I’m ready to see it — and help me shift into the version of myself who IS ready to see it and receive it.

Albina One was seeded in my dreamstate long before it crossed my path in physical reality. Long before I ended up living where I am now. Because that’s how creation works. It’s vibrational first. The form comes later. And it’s constantly flowing and expanding. But only when we’re willing to see it.

And that’s what this experience has reminded me: the universe is always answering. The only question is — am I in the place to say yes? Albina One was my yes. Following the impulse was my yes. A yes to ease. A yes to beauty. And a yes to letting my past beliefs soothe so a new world can live through me. This is just the beginning…
