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.

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.
