The Real Reason You’re Still Not Feeling Better

TL;DR: In this, Part Three of the Four-Part series about Steven losing his keys, the author shares how they guided Steven through the emotional fallout of losing his keys. Doing so helped Steven discover that the contrast revealed his readiness—and how realignment begins when we stop performing and start feeling the process.

Steven sat across from me in-session online, his voice quiet, his energy low. I knew immediately he was in a very low vibrational state. The emotional turbulence of the past week lingered: the lost keys, his boss’s reaction, and most importantly, the stories he had been telling himself had him really low.

What made this session particularly rich was what it revealed—not just about Steven, but about how deep this practice really goes when applied in the midst of real-world contrast.

The session became a masterclass in vibrational leverage. Not because it resolved everything in a single sitting, or because I did anything special. It was a masterclass because it revealed how even seasoned practitioners can get caught in the swirl of their own stories… and how beautiful it is when they begin to emerge from that swirl.

Steven tried to apply one of the foundational Positively Focused processes. The process works every time, which is why it’s part of the basic practice framework. He tried applying it on his own. And to his credit, he didn’t just mentally revisit the steps. He truly attempted to walk himself through acknowledgment, acceptance, recognizing what his experience told him, and finally, amplification of the shift that happens naturally in step three.

Something wasn’t landing, however.

When the Practice Is Real

He described how he had tried to say the words aloud, to walk through the steps and feel some relief.

“I did the process,” he said. “But it didn’t really shift anything.”

But the practice does create a shift. So we had to troubleshoot. That’s when we uncovered the subtle but crucial gap: he had performed the process mechanically, without the presence that makes it effective.

That’s not uncommon. When the contrast is hot—when keys are missing, a boss is disappointed, and inner narratives are spiraling—it’s easy to rush the process instead of resting in it. That’s what Steven had done. He didn’t skip the steps, but he skipped over the alignment that makes them work.

So we slowed everything down. Together, we walked back through each stage—not as a checklist, but as a vibrational recalibration.

We began at the beginning: acknowledgment. That meant naming all the stories that were active in Steven’s consciousness giving rise to his negative emotions. The process is not about acknowledging them as facts, or the truth. It’s about acknowledging their presence within him. Stories like: “If I lose something, I’m irresponsible.” “I can’t be trusted.” And “Now I’ve ruined my chances at a promotion.”

Coming into acceptance

These weren’t new beliefs. They were old ones. Echoes of childhood moments, especially those involving his mother, where he felt criticized or held to unexpressed standards. His current boss, Richard, had become a mirror. Not because Richard was behaving badly, but because Steven’s vibration had summoned a version of him that matched old patterns.

This wasn’t failure. This was graduation.

The contrast had intensified not because Steven was off-track, but because he was ready to move beyond these stories he created long ago. As I reminded him gently, “You wouldn’t be experiencing this level of contrast if you weren’t ready for it.”

The next step was accepting the beliefs are there. This second step is different from the first. It’s about letting go of resistance and instead welcoming the old beliefs back into us. Resisting, not accepting a belief is what creates resistance. And resistance amplifies that which we resist. For Steven, this wasn’t about accepting fault, accepting fault would amplify resistance. That’s because there’s no such thing as blame or fault. Instead, he needed to accept what was.

Acceptance is not about blame.

What “was” was, He didn’t have his keys. His boss was disappointed. His momentum had taken him into a tailspin. But none of that was wrong. Thinking it wrong creates resistance. These things are simply what had occurred. By making peace with the moment—not as a judgment, but as a reflection—Steven began to find his footing.

Only then could we move to Step Three, the vibrational pivot.

Amplifying higher vibrations.

Here, I asked Steven to consider what his Broader Perspective was feeling. Was it shaming him? No. Was it blaming him? Certainly not. His Broader Perspective was seeing the wholeness of the moment. The opportunity. The expansion. A perfection so exquisite, created between him and his reflected reality. A perfection that could lead to more empowerment.

Steven’s eyes welled up when he saw that.

“I’ve been so afraid I ruined everything,” he said, voice quiet. “But now I get it. This isn’t about the keys.”

No, it wasn’t. It was about more alignment, expansion and empowerment. That clarity of awareness indicated Steve felt better. At least, at the very least, he felt relief, which is improved vibration. Now we entered the amplification phase.

This part isn’t about affirmations or hype. It’s about tuning in to the new emotional frequency and letting it fill the space. We do that through our imagination. We use our imagination to create new beliefs, new thoughts about what happened that stand in for old ones as the old ones soothe.

For Steven, that meant resting in a new truth: That he is not defined by mistakes. Trustworthiness isn’t earned—it’s embodied. That this moment, painful as it seemed, was sacred.

By the end of the session, Steven felt significantly better. The relief wasn’t euphoric, but it was stabilizing. He still wasn’t sure how things would unfold at work the next day. He still had concerns about how Richard would treat him. But he was no longer a victim of that perceived uncertainty.

He was still floating, still alive. He had reclaimed his oars. And from that place, even uncertain waters felt navigable.

Takeaway: Mastery Isn’t About Avoiding Contrast

The Four-Step Process outlined above doesn’t promise immediate resolution to external conditions. This is not magic. Neither is the rest of the Positively Focused framework. But it does offer something better: vibrational clarity and alignment with one’s Broader Perspective. And clarity is what allows new versions of reality to emerge.

New versions emerge as we walk into them. We can’t walk into them, however, if we don’t know where they are. Alignment with our Broader Perspective shows us where the doorways are and inspires us to walk through them into the new reality.

Steven hadn’t yet found his keys. He didn’t know what would happen tomorrow. But he was no longer at the mercy of momentum. He had re-entered his power—not as a performer or pleaser, but as a conscious creator. Contrast didn’t defeat him. It refined him. And in that, he was already victorious.

Why Losing Keys Was Steven’s Greatest Spiritual Gift

TL;DR: The author explores how a lost set of keys led client “Steven” into a vibrational tailspin, revealing old belief patterns and offering a powerful opportunity for realignment and expansion. This is part 2 of Steven’s story.

Steven was already off balance. He’d ignored his Broader Perspective’s gentle invitation to stay home—a nudge his wife had unwittingly overridden. He’d also hit a baby deer the night before. That was a jarring event. But it still reverberated through his body the next morning. He hadn’t slept well. And even though he showed up to work as scheduled, something inside him knew: he wasn’t calibrated.

That matters. Because when you’re not calibrated, when you’re not aligned, the Universe doesn’t punish you. But it will offer a mirror so accurate, so refined, that if you’re paying attention, you’ll see exactly what stories you’re still telling—whether you like them or not.

For Steven, that’s exactly what was about to happen.

Steven could have avoided all this had he listened to the gentle whisper. The whisper from his Broader Perspective to stay home. Not avoiding it, however, introduced a wonderful unfolding. Although Steven would see it that way for many days.

When Keys Vanish, Beliefs Speak

It started simply. A moment that could have gone unnoticed. As Steven performed his usual rounds on the college campus where he worked, he had just used a lockbox key—one of many keys specifically assigned to him as part of his facilities management role. These keys weren’t just tools. They were symbols. The keys were tangible representations of the next level of his career: campus locksmith. The locksmith job promised higher salary, better hours, more freedom and more recognition. It was a promotion Steven looked forward to.

One moment while using the keys at the lockbox, Steven had the keys. The next moment, however, they were gone. Steven’s heart sank. He looked everywhere. He retraced his steps. Steven checked every pocket, every surface.

The keys were simply not there. Not in a metaphorical “they’ll turn up later” kind of way. But in that physical-reality-has-shifted kind of way. A loss so precise it almost felt orchestrated.

Because it was.

And yet, Steven’s boss, Richard, wasn’t pleased. “That’s not going to look good for your locksmith promotion,” Richard said shaking his head. “A locksmith who loses his keys?”

And with that, Steven’s vibration—already shaky—collapsed into a tailspin.

“Lost” is a vibrational reality

For most people, losing something like keys is common. I’ve written several stories about my experience losing things. Here’s one. Here’s another. When something goes lost, the best thing to do, if possible, is forget about trying to find it. Instead, if we just go about our business, we’ll be led back into the reality where the item is present.

But most people, myself included sometimes, instantly start looking for the item. Doing that, we amplify the reality in which the thing is “lost”. Moreover, the more we try to find it, we amplify its lost state even more. So losing things, especially minor things, is a great way to prove to ourselves that we constantly move from one dimension to another. Losing something gives us a chance to play with alternate realities.

Sometimes, however, we lose something significant. When that happens, we’re not likely to just forget about it. In those cases, the lost item represents a more important movement of dimensional reality. For Steven, losing his keys was part of an ongoing series of manifestations. Manifestations that began with a wonderful visit to his sister’s house.

Killing that dear was part of that unfolding. So was being unable to sleep. Indeed, I’m sure, in the dream state, Steven soothed a lot of what he had stepped into. But he didn’t allow the momentum to soothe further. That’s why his Broader Perspective wanted him to take the day off.

He didn’t though. And everything changed. The intensity of his disconnection increased. As it did, more benefit unfolded for him.

From Whispers to Storms

Suddenly, everything Steven hadn’t done yet became a spotlight of failure. There was the broken sprinkler system. The backlog of requests. His own perfectionism kicked in, too — frantically reviewing all the ways he might have prevented losing his keys. Richard’s comments, the increased scrutiny he laid on Steven, the backlog of requests — all these things represented increased intensity.

But the real storm raging wasn’t Richard or anything outside Steven. It was the internal narrative Steven summoned in response. Richard, who had previously been mentoring Steven for the locksmith role, now seemed like a different person. He showed up as critical, cold and suspicious. Steven felt judged, watched, scrutinized and criticized. This new version Steven created had him feeling completely disempowered. And his lost keys left him feeling helpless to do anything about the situation.

Steven’s vibration changed. So everything around him did too, including Richard.

All that didn’t happen because Richard suddenly changed. It happened because Steven’s vibration changed. In his state of fear, he rendezvoused with a version of Richard that reflected exactly what he feared most: rejection, disappointment, and lost trust.

That’s how manifestation works. It doesn’t just hand us things. It reveals the shape of our beliefs so we can do something about them. Do something and we become a match to better alternate realities. But if we don’t, the shape of our beliefs, projected outward as a physical reality, gets more intense. It gets more intense because our Broader Perspective and All That Is wants us to align with that which we desire.

It’s the only way we can have what we want. So the Universe and our Broader Perspective cooperates in nudging us in the direction of what we want by giving us cues. They start as whispers. However, if we ignore them, they can turn into storms.

Mother becomes the boss

So the intensity of Steven’s reaction wasn’t about keys. It wasn’t about promotions. It was about something deeper. Something older. Something Steven had felt before.

The feelings—of being misunderstood, scrutinized, punished unfairly—were eerily familiar. They echoed memories of his relationship with his mother. Back then, he often felt like he couldn’t do anything right. No matter how hard he tried, she’d find something wrong. Her love and trust were conditional, easily withdrawn at the first sign of what she perceived as “failure.” Another way of describing “failure” is “any time Steven didn’t meet her expectations.”

Now here he was again. Different setting. Different authority figure. Same emotional response. That’s the gift of manifestation. It’s never random. It brings the unsoothed pattern back to us—but dressed in new clothes. This time it wasn’t “Mom.” It was Richard. And instead of a scolding at home, it was pressure at work. The stakes were higher, for sure. But vibrationally, the match was perfect. And the situation? Exactly the same.

All this wasn’t bad, though. It reflected Steven’s upgraded status as a vibrational being. The stakes were higher. His job was potentially on the line, or so Steven believed. His boss was furious with him, he thought.

What I knew was this whole experience was a higher-level opportunity to soothe his old beliefs. Beliefs still creating realities in his life that revealed where he is relative to his desires.

Steven is doing great. In other words, he’s progressing and progressing fast. It seems like these kinds of situations shouldn’t happen for someone advanced as Steven. And yet, these kinds of things do happen in the early stages of the advanced practice. That’s because they act as clearing gateways to brighter, better alternate futures.

Beliefs Hide in Plain Sight—Until They Don’t

Steven didn’t notice the parallel at first. Nor did he recognize how perfect all this was.

It wasn’t until our session, as we slowed everything down, that he saw it. The shame. The fear. Impulses to over perform in order to prove his worth. The sense of being “on trial.” All of it tracked back to a belief constellation first activated in childhood — and still quietly vibrating in his present-day experience.

Again, the lost keys didn’t cause this vibration. They revealed it.

That’s why the Positively Focused practice is so powerful. It shows us nothing ever “goes wrong.” Even a lost object is a portal into deeper knowing—if we’re willing to look. Not with blame. Not with urgency. But with curiosity and compassion.

And Steven did just that…eventually. It took him a week. In the days leading up to our session, he struggled. When he came to the session, he was deep in negative emotion. Despair. Helplessness.

By the end of our session, however, he saw what was unfolding—not as punishment or setback—but as a tailor-made invitation to liberate old beliefs from their hiding places. He didn’t just lose keys. He found himself.

Takeaway: When something’s lost, something deeper reveals itself.

See you tomorrow for Part 3.

What Happens When You Finally See The Crown

TL;DR: In this fifth part of a six-part series, the author recounts how a funeral cracked open a deeper truth for his business-owner client: our judgments blind us to others’ divinity—until alignment lets us finally see what was always there.

Jane wasn’t prepared for what she walked into.

She had driven to the funeral of Alba—the representative of one of her customer organizations—with little expectation other than to show respect. After all, Alba had recently passed, and throughout their working relationship, Jane had long felt a measure of frustration toward her.

Alba was, to Jane, unreliable. She canceled meetings often. Alba spoke in ways Jane found circuitous and unfocused. She had become one of Jane’s most challenging clients—not because of what she asked for, but because of what Jane thought she represented: disorganization, distraction, a time-consumer.

And then came the funeral.

It was held in a Black church. Jane, who is white and was raised attending traditional white congregations, immediately noticed something different. There was music, joy, laughter. There were tears too—but the tears flowed alongside testimonies and praise. The pews were filled—300 people strong. And at the front of the sanctuary, the body of Alba rested peacefully…with a crown placed gently upon her head.

It took Jane’s breath away.

This funeral wasn’t about grief. This was a coronation. A recognition of the royal life Alba lived. And Jane could feel it—viscerally, undeniably. The room pulsed with love, gratitude, reverence. Here Jane witnessed a version of Alba she had never allowed herself to see. A revelation began. And with it came a reckoning.

The Version We See Is Always Ours

Here’s the great paradox of physical reality: we never interact with “the person” we’re interacting with. Instead, we interact with our version of that person. A version filtered through our active beliefs, biases, expectations, and emotional momentum. That’s true for clients, coworkers, lovers, friends—and yes, even for funeral guests. When Jane was alive in her stories about Alba, she couldn’t see the woman who had:

  • Served time in prison
  • Lost her children during incarceration
  • Rebuilt her life and reclaimed her family
  • Founded an entire organization to help formerly incarcerated women do the same

She couldn’t see the god in Alba, the angel, the founder, the force. But the version of Alba celebrated at that funeral was undeniable. That version shattered Jane’s perceptual filter. It wasn’t that Alba had changed. It was that Jane’s vibrational relationship to her had.

The crown on Alba’s head wasn’t just a tribute. It was a mirror. A powerful, public display of what Jane hadn’t allowed herself to see in life—but could now finally acknowledge in Alba’s transition.

The Hidden Grace in Every Human

This is the real culmination of the six-part story we’ve been sharing. It hasn’t been only about Jane and Sally, or about customers and contracts—it’s been about the sacred truth behind everyone we interact with: Every person is divine: Every person is on a path.

And every person reflects back to us our own energetic state. If we meet someone in frustration, resentment, or judgment, that’s what we get. We don’t see the fullness of who they are because we’re too busy projecting who we think they are. But when the filters fall away—whether through expansion or, in this case, grief—we see something else entirely. We see Source.

This is true of Alba. It’s also true of Sally.

Because Jane couldn’t see Sally’s value, she saw waste. She saw a blank database instead of a robust content strategy. She saw misalignment instead of leadership. But all of that was Jane’s story—not Sally’s.

The same way Alba’s story was far grander than Jane’s story could contain.

When Jane called me after the funeral, she was in tears—but not of sadness. These were tears of revelation, and awe. She told me everything—how beautiful the service was, how inspired she felt. And I just listened. I felt no need to emphasize what Jane discovered. Not then.

But I will next session because this is a crucial moment for Jane.

The Sacred Reminder: Alignment First, Clarity Follows

That’s because Jane’s experience shows how powerful the Positively Focused practice is. It’s not about controlling others or highlighting their flaws as though those flaws are all they are. It’s about aligning with the broader awareness of who others are so that we can be a match to it.

When we’re aligned, our filters change. We perceive more clearly. We receive more graciously. Then we soften. We soften our view of the world and those in it. And the people become radiant reflections of the love and clarity we’ve cultivated within.

That’s what Jane touched in that church. It’s exactly why I want to solidify that in her awareness next session. And it’s exactly what Sally was offering Jane, right up to her “termination.” An opportunity to shift perspective. And that’s the fundamental beauty of what this entire six-part journey reveals.

The final gift of this story is simple, but profound: Every single human you meet wears a crown. It’s not always on their head. Sometimes it’s in their actions. Other times it’s in their perseverance. Sometimes it’s in the way they reflect back to us what we still can’t see in ourselves. But it’s always there.

And if we let the stories fall away… if we pause long enough to shift our vibration… if we open our eyes from alignment, rather than resistance… we’ll see it. And when we do, life becomes a coronation. Not just of others, but of ourselves. Because the crown we see on another’s head?

It’s our crown, too.

When “Healing” Doesn’t Help: A New Path Forward

TL;DR: This reflective post explores a real-life interaction highlighting the limits of “healing” narratives. It illustrates how emotional contrast serves expansion through vibrational clarity, not trauma recovery.

There’s a common belief in many spiritual and New Age communities that emotional wounds must be healed, processed, and purged before one can move forward. The language of trauma, shadow work, and inner child healing often dominates these spaces. And while those interpretations can offer temporary comfort or a sense of meaning, from a Positively Focused perspective, none of them are necessary. In fact, they often reinforce the very frequency that keeps people locked in painful cycles.

This is the story of “Kellie”—a woman I met synchronistically—and how her journey with me became a living example of the difference between those two worldviews.

The Meeting: A Manifestation

We met at Gigi’s, a charming breakfast spot. I had gone there with the intention of having a joyful experience, maybe even meeting someone stimulating.

That’s exactly what happened. Kellie appeared as a delightful new acquaintance. We sparked a conversation rooted in spiritual curiosity. She shared her journey: a former software engineer with time spent in well-known software engineering corporations, now in a transitional space after escaping both high-tech burnout and a controlling Christian cult. Kellie was recalibrating her life.

She shared that she was deeply spiritual—into lucid dreaming, astrology, and alternate timeline work. We began spending time together casually, often sharing perspectives on spiritual topics. From the start, I recognized her as a manifestation. That’s why I never felt resistance to our dynamic. But I also never mistook her for a client. So I didn’t share the full depth of being Positively Focused.

Over time, however, I noticed a pattern. On at least three occasions, Kellie had intense negative emotional experience while in my presence. Something would trigger her—a memory, a comment, or even an impulse—and she would spiral. Each time, our conversation had to end because she was inconsolable.

Still, I stayed open. I saw her emotional responses not as problems, but as data. Kellie was calibrating. Just not consciously.

Better timelines?

Then, during one of our coffee shop conversations, she brought up her ability to perceive timelines. She always spoke of them as dark or painful, especially those involving her mother.

So I asked a simple, high-vibration question: If you can perceive other timelines, why are the ones you access always negative? What if there are joyful timelines you could feel into? Ones where your mother loved you well, or where your tech career was fulfilling?

That question opened the door.

Later, Sarah texted me, thanking me for what I shared. She said it helped her remember that she could access positive timelines too. That she was on a grand adventure.

I responded, offering a broader perspective: that nothing comes “unbidden”, that her Belief Momentum instead was drawing specific versions of reality to her, and that cleaning up those beliefs would align her with timelines she prefers. I even gently suggested her distrust of corporations might be limiting her.

I added that her beliefs about being “banned” from ChatGPT (which she had shared with me) might also be evidence of her vibrational focus. Maybe her beliefs about malevolent systems were recreating experiences that seemed like censorship or exclusion I told her.

I offered this not as critique, but as a mirror. From a high vibration. She had asked for my insight after all. So I gave it.

The Reaction

Days later, she wrote back, saying my message hit like a “gut punch”. It exposed a “gaping wound” Kellie said. She thanked me, but also said she needed several days to recover. She interpreted what I said as harsh, even though she acknowledged it came from love.

She said she was still processing and needed compassion. That she felt blocked from experiencing more positive timelines, and maybe that blockage was necessary for her growth. Kellie even said the more Positively Focused timelines were “blocked” by design.

Recognizing Kellie wasn’t in a good place, I offered what I knew before hand, but didn’t heed, that the accuracy of my client framework can be hard to hear if the listener doesn’t have some context to receive it in:

Then I sought clarification. Some of what she said perplexed me:

Kellie responded saying she felt attacked. Then corrected herself: she now saw that wasn’t true. Still, she said, she didn’t want to pursue the conversation further.

From the Positively Focused Perspective

This exchange clarified something I already knew: what I offer is sacred. And it’s best offered within the container of client relationships. Because unless someone has done some calibrating, the perspective I bring can feel destabilizing.

Kellie’s response reflects a common misunderstanding: the belief that there are emotional “wounds” which must be “healed”. That someone else can “expose” those wounds. That life happens to us, and we must recover from it. But from a Positively Focused perspective, there are no “wounds”. There is only vibrational momentum.

What feels like a wound is just the contrast between a deeply practiced belief and the perspective of our Inner Being. The bigger the contrast between those two, the more it hurts. But that pain isn’t an indication that something went wrong. It’s evidence that something is ready to change.

What’s more, the idea that we need to “heal” implies something is broken. That something bad happened that we didn’t ask for. It implies that we are victims of circumstance. But that’s never the case.

Everything that happens is an answer to our vibration. And every experience—even the painful ones—are invitations…into greater clarity, alignment, and freedom. That’s why I never use the language of “healing” or “wounding.” Such language disempowers. It locks people into a linear process of “recovery” rather than an expansive, upward spiral, quantum path of calibration.

Kellie wasn’t wounded. She was experiencing the emotional signal of Belief Momentum that no longer serves her. But she can’t hear that.

What She Reflected Back to Me

I’m grateful to Kellie. She reminded me that Positively Focused isn’t for everyone. It requires readiness, willingness and devotion. It definitely demands a certain level of vibrational stability.

Kellie also showed me how easy it is to interpret feedback through the lens of pain. Her belief that I “attacked” her wasn’t about me. It was about how her Belief Momentum filtered my words.

I honor that. But I don’t take it on.

Instead, I use it as a reminder that the practice I offer works best when someone is asking, deliberately and consistently, for what I offer.

After our final exchange, I sent her a message of closure. One rooted in appreciation, clarity, and forward movement. Here it is:

Final Thoughts

Not everyone is a client. And not every spiritual “seeker” is ready to release the “wound/healing” paradigm and become a “finder”. That’s ok. But I’ll continue to offer what I offer: a path of deliberate, joyful calibration, where nothing is broken, nothing went wrong, and everything—yes, even ChatGPT bans and gut punches—is an invitation.

To those ready to live from that knowing, I say: welcome home.

There’s so much joy in the world. There’s so much joy in our lives. And there’s so much joy in us. Tapping into that joy can be exhilarating and leads to a tremendous sense of worthiness. It’s exhilarating and addictive: once someone discovers Positively Focused as a way of being, they hardly ever go back to living they way they did before.

That’s because everyone’s Broader Perspective wants them to embody, live and express that joy. Some, however, aren’t ready for that. Some still must move through disempowering momentum. That’s ok too. I’m happy with the world as it is. And, I’m joyful for those who encounter Positively Focused, then become clients.

It’s so fun being Positively Focused. But it’s even funner when like-minded others join in on that fun.

Why Younger Leaders Make the Best Alignment Teachers

TL;DR: In this, Part 4, of a six-part series, the author shares how client Sally turned a firing into confirmation from the Universe, demonstrating the clarity and leadership that emerge when younger generations align with their broader perspective.

When I got on the call with Sally that evening, I wasn’t worried. I knew what kind of vibrational environment we had built together. But still—when I heard her voice, I felt deep satisfaction. She was calm. Clear. Even… radiant.

Sally had just been fired. But instead of spiraling, she immediately started receiving. A text from a woman she respected—her dance instructor—landed just minutes after the call. “You’re such a light,” it read. “I’m so glad to call you my friend.” Sally was floored. The timing was divine. And the message? Unmistakable.

Then, in the elevator of her building, a stranger looked at her with admiration and offered a spontaneous compliment on her beauty. Another confirmation. Another wink from the Universe.

None of this was coincidence. This was the Universe showing her: “You’re okay. In fact, you’re better than okay.”

A practice that delivers

I’ve long said younger generations are not here to be taught—they’re here to teach. Sally is at least 12 years younger than Jane, and that’s no accident. She’s fluid, adaptable, and, because she’s younger, less burdened by societal conditioning. A lot of Jane’s resistance comes from just having lived longer. Sally, on the other hand, flows easily with energy. It’s not that Jane is “wrong.” She’s just older. She’s here to build a foundation. Sally? She’s here to leap from it.

Let’s be clear: Sally still struggles with her own resistance. She’s getting better at that struggle every week, however. That’s because Sally is devoted to this practice. When I told Sally this, she smiled. She got it instantly. Not intellectually, but vibrationally. She felt the truth of her place in this unfolding.

Then Sally did something most people wouldn’t.

She said: “I want to continue the Positively Focused practice. Even if I have to pay for it myself. Are you willing?” Are you kidding me? Of course, I’m willing I told her. This is a woman who had just lost her job. But instead of retreating, she expanded. Instead of pulling back, she leaned in. That’s sovereignty.

And here’s the part that gives me chills because it shows how devoted she is to this practice: Sally had already dropped her therapist a few weeks earlier. Not because of dissatisfaction, but because the Positively Focused framework, she said, works better for her. She wanted deeper alignment, not traditional analysis. And now? The practice had proven itself in the real world. In the sharp contrast of a termination, it had delivered peace, clarity, and confirmation.

Leaping Into Her Own Leadership

Nearly all my clients create similar results for themselves. That includes Jane. After all, Jane was the client who manifested a diamond. And all my clients who once had therapists agree: Therapy just can’t match alignment to All That Is. That alignment not only is the leverage everyone’s looking for. It also feels tremendously good. And how could it not? It taps us into our sovereignty. There’s no better feeling than that. No healing required. Just clarity.

With her job at Jane’s company winding down, Sally saw what I had always seen: she’s not meant to be an employee. She’s meant to lead. To create in her unique way. To bring talents to the world no one has seen before.

And now, she’s getting ready to do it. She doesn’t see that potential fully enough to embrace it. But everyone is expanding. Everyone’s also eternal. So there’s no rush to get it all done right now. We couldn’t even if we wanted to.

I’m positive she’ll use the practice as her compass. I’ll be there as her coach as well. And the Universe? The Universe is already clearing the path.

Two more fabulous installments to this story that delivered manifestation after manifestation. We’ll resume with those last two installments beginning this Wednesday.

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 Manifest Abundance by Aligning with Worthiness

TL;DR: The author demonstrates how aligning with inherent worthiness leads to manifested abundance. By gathering evidence of personal value, they assert, a self-sustaining loop of vibrational alignment and prosperity ensues.

Worthiness. It’s a word we often hear, especially in spiritual and personal development circles. But what does it really mean to be worthy? And how does one cultivate that sense of worthiness in their own life?

In my recent YouTube video, I dove deep into this very subject from the Positively Focused perspective. What I shared there mirrors what I’ve come to realize over the years in my own journey. It’s a central part of the work I do with clients.

Worthiness is not something we “do” to earn, but a state of being that unfolds naturally when we are in alignment with All That Is. It comes from recognizing and appreciating the ways the Universe has already delivered what we want—and realizing that the Universe is continually working in harmony with all our desires.

We have all experienced this. Think back to times when something you deeply wanted showed up for you, seemingly out of nowhere. That’s the Universe’s love and support in action. It’s the evidence that you are worthy, that the Universe is working with you, for you, giving you everything you want in every way it knows how.

That’s how worthiness starts to show up. It’s the process of collecting evidence—real, tangible, undeniable evidence—that you are worthy of receiving what you desire.

Building the Basket of Evidence

To explain this process, I often use the metaphor of a “basket of evidence.” Imagine that each manifestation you experience—whether it’s a small, pleasant surprise or a big, life-changing event—goes into your basket. Each time you receive something aligned with your desires, your basket fills up, showing you that the Universe not only supports you, but wants you to have everything you ask for.

The more we gather evidence of this the more we become aligned with the state of worthiness. Worthiness just can’t help but flow from within us. Then, the more worthiness we experience, the more naturally our alignment strengthens, and the more manifestations we attract.

Worthiness, therefore, isn’t a destination—it’s a process. As we continue adding to our basket of evidence, our belief in our inherent worth strengthens. And as our worthiness grows, we move further into a state of allowing, where everything we want moves effortlessly toward us. Then we begin noticing more evidence, and that evidence strengthens our belief. It’s a self-perpetuating upward spiral.

And once we reach this state of worthiness, we crave more of it. We want more evidence, more manifestations, more expansion. We start seeing the natural abundance the Universe always provides, and we become deeply aligned with that flow. The more we practice and embody our worthiness, the more the Universe showers us with everything we desire.

Filling a basket with evidence of the Universe loving you is the key to feeling worthy.

I’m Living Proof

This process isn’t just theoretical for me; it’s something I live daily. My life is a testament to the power of aligning with worthiness, and the manifestations that flow from it. The positive, abundance-filled experiences I have in my everyday life, including a growing client base, is living proof that when we tune into worthiness, the Universe meets us there.

I’ve also seen it in my clients’ lives. They’re creating their own baskets of evidence every day, just as I am. Whether it’s a successful career shift, improved relationships, or unexpected dates, they’re proving to themselves that they, too, are worthy of their desires.

This blog, my YouTube channel, my work with clients—it’s all about demonstrating how accurately this is to myself and to others. It’s about showing that the Universe always works in alignment with us. And through the Positively Focused practice, we are all learning to recognize that, and allow it to flow into our lives more freely, effortlessly, and abundantly.

But here’s the thing: It’s not enough to simply talk about worthiness. We must see evidence of it in our own life. If we want to become more aligned with our desires, we need to collect that evidence by focusing on the positive manifestations happening around us—no matter how big or small. Whether it’s a compliment, an unexpected check in the mail, or a surprise encounter with a person we needed to meet, those are all pieces of evidence that the Universe is supporting us.

Worthiness and the Charmed Life

As I’ve worked with my clients, I’ve seen them begin to gather their own evidence. Each small manifestation builds on the last, creating a snowball effect that leads to even more abundance, more alignment, and more joy. And this is the key: the more evidence we gather, the more we realize that we are the creator of our reality, and worthiness is our natural state.

The concept of worthiness is at the heart of the Positively Focused practice. It’s what leads to a Charmed Life—a life that is in constant flow with the Universe, where everything we effortlessly flows to us. And the beauty of it is that anyone can experience this. All it takes is the willingness to shift our beliefs, align with our worthiness, and allow the Universe to do the rest.

So, what’s in your basket of evidence? What are you gathering every day to prove to yourself that you are worthy? If you’re struggling to find that evidence, start small. Look for the little things. The Universe is always providing. You just have to be willing to see it.

Because when you do, you’ll begin to see how truly worthy you are. And from there, everything changes.

If you want help seeing the evidence that’s there, I can help.

When A Violent Attack Became A Great Gift

TL;DR: After years of misanthropic momentum, a client manifested a violent encounter—but responded with clarity and non-reaction. His experience shows how even violence can catalyze spiritual mastery and empowered sovereignty.

April was a banner month for Positively Focused clients. Nearly all clients enjoyed amazing manifestations. One manifested a free 1-Carat diamond. Another, effortlessly manifested a repeat music gig. These creations made April unusually invigorating. Their manifestations rivaled my own, including one in which I gifted to myself the power of precognition, and another where I effortlessly manifested a rendezvous with a person of interest.

But one advanced client’s manifestation stood out.

He took this Positively Focused practice to an entirely new level by demonstrating mastery well beyond previous awareness. His mastery proved the power of Jesus’ admonition to “turn the other cheek”. In doing so he completely diffused a violent situation in the midst of the violence.

This client’s Positively Focused practice began many years ago. Being trans-attracted brought him to the practice through my other offering, The Transamorous Network. I write about this client often, because he creates such powerful manifestations. They demonstrate how, even though his life seemed in shambles, he’s a powerful creator. One with enormous potential.

So when a stranger assaulted him, I wasn’t surprised he was up for the challenge. To understand how this unfolded, we must look at this client’s past. That way we can see how he was a perfect match to the violence he created.

The background for context

The client’s past includes a lot of negative experiences. Those experiences came after he focused on those experiences in a way which amplified their momentum. Back then, the client didn’t understand this YCYOR business. So he was powerless to do anything other than what he did.

One thing he developed along the way was a strong hatred of women. Alongside that hatred was a strong dislike/hatred of people in general. Both his misogyny and his misanthropy made him a match to experiences consistent with those vibrational frequencies.

Women almost always rejected his advances. They often found him revolting. The client often gets into disagreements with them. And, of course, because of all this he’s had precious little experience with relationships with women.

The same holds true for his experiences with people in general. More often than not, the client believes people disregard his feelings, disrespect him or under-appreciate him. One woman accused him of stalking her. Men would get angry at him or the client would say something crass or insulting thereby burning bridges. Even his siblings revile him.

And, the more of these kinds of things happened, the stronger his negative beliefs about women, specifically, and people, in general, grew thereby amplifying his belief-momentum.

Changing focus

It took a while before he opened the door to becoming aware of all this. I pointed it out after offering a specific Positively Focused process. In that process it’s natural to express appreciation for others. This client never did that though. Even when I tried directing him to the subject of the millions of people who benefit him, he would not focus on appreciating those people.

That’s when I introduced the possibility that he held misanthropic beliefs. At first, he accepted the assertion. Shortly after, however, he resisted it. He even claimed I was creating a misanthropic version of him! How’s that for using the practice against me LOL!

Of course, I told him that’s not what’s happening. And, again, of course, the Universe agreed, which is exactly why what happened next was so perfect.

I tell all clients people’s Broader Perspective always guides them to their highest purposes. Most people, however, are no where near the vicinity of their Broader Perspective’s vibrational frequency, so they can’t feel the guidance. That explains why such people experience negative, even tragic, events. Such events are not negative or tragic. They represent the Universe trying to get people’s attention so they change their focus. Change their focus and come in-line with their Broader Perspective.

Punctuating clarity

Contrary to what people think about reality, things don’t happen randomly or by coincidence. They come into our lives – are attracted to us – because of our focus. This attraction dynamic is relentless, meaning, if our focus dominantly resides in lower frequencies, we will attract matching experiences.

Humans describe those as “negative”. But they usually don’t begin with tragedies or strongly negative experiences. They always start out mild. Like tripping on the sidewalk, banging a knee or a bird poops on us!

If we don’t take the hint, so to speak, the Universe turns up the volume. Such experiences will increase in intensity until they reach a stage where they’re full-blown tragedies. All these events potentially clarify for us where we are on our path. They’re meant to help us course-correct.

But they also can punctuate clarity a person already has received. Such manifestations and their timing come with such clarity, it’s impossible to ignore the unfolding pattern. Especially with some Positively Focused practice under our belts. And this is where this client stood: with lots of the practice under his belt, and yet resisting the clarity he received so far.

That set up this perfect unfolding.

A dismissal

The client was out one night after not being able to sleep. He walked the streets, moving through the bar district. One location called him, so he stopped in. He sidled up to the bar and when he put his hand on the bar, he “accidentally” cut his pinky on a glass shard.

This happened just a couple days after our session in which I revealed his misanthropic momentum. The client asked the female bartender for a bandaid and rubbing alcohol. She didn’t have rubbing alcohol. According to the client, she “dismissed” his distress and tossed him a bandaid. His interpretation of her “dismissiveness” indicated his powerful resonance with creating women matching his misogynistic beliefs.

Miffed, the client went to the bathroom. There he washed the cut with soap and water, which I’m sure offered not only relief from the cut, but also allowed him to re-align with his higher vibrations. So when he returned to the bar, he rendezvoused with a better version of the bar-maid. One that had found and offered a tube of Neosporin instead of rubbing alcohol.

Unfortunately, the client didn’t maintain his relief. His dominant negative momentum, generally, on the subject of women, and specifically, on the subject of THIS woman, collapsed him right back into negative vibrations and feelings about her. He ignored the tube, didn’t even thank her for it and, instead, left the bar.

“Say one more word…”

I know you’re probably thinking “what an asshole”. But name calling does nothing other than amplify our own negative belief-momentum. What really was happening was this client was serving himself powerfully. He was setting up a series of events that made it undeniable that he stands in very strong negative belief-momentum about men and women.

He’s not an “asshole”. He’s just unconscious about what’s going on in himself and how to change that. So his reality reflects back to him a life experience matching his inner state, whether he gets it or not. That’s happening with every person.

The client left that bar. He grabbed a seat at another bar not far away. There, minding his own business, the client noticed a black man approaching. At first, as the client explains it, the guy seemed ordinary. But when the guy saw the client, he started shouting at him. The client can’t remember what the guy was angry about. He said the black guy literally got in his face, shouting angry words at him.

Then, out of nowhere, the guy hit the client with an open hand across his face. An assault! The guy hit the client in the face so hard, the client told me, his glasses went flying. Everyone around was shocked into speechlessness.

Not the client. He knew exactly what was happening. “This guy was an angel, reflecting back to me my own misanthropic beliefs in the most obvious way,” He said in-session. He told me he didn’t get angry or defensive. All he could think of was “I created this.”

My client sharing what happened.

As the guy walked away, my client said something like “I didn’t even do anything to you! That was uncalled for.” And with that, the guy came bounding back. “Say one more word MOTHERFUCKER!” he said. My client put his dukes up, but said it was merely a gesture of protection. He didn’t want a physical confrontation.

“You wanna die today?”

What the client did here is masterful. He literally diffused the situation through non-reaction in the physical sense. That’s because he understood this was a reality HE created, born of his beliefs, in order to see those beliefs manifested, then do something about them. Fighting back would have just amplified momentum inherent in his misanthropic beliefs. Not reacting was exactly the right thing to do. Something most people won’t even have in their reaction toolbox.

This client’s act of real bravery reminds me of a similar experience from my life. One day, a stranger, down on his luck, encountered me on a light rail platform. We made eye contact and I smiled at him. Apparently he didn’t like that.

“What you looking at faggot,” he said menacingly. “You wanna die today?”

“Do you?” I said without missing a beat. The words flowed from my mouth before I had a moment to think of a response. I had no intention of harming this black guy let alone killing him.

The stranger looked down at his feet as he kept walking. “Yes,” he said.

As he walked away, he kept looking back with a “WTF just happened?” look on his face.

Responses such as my client’s, such as mine, are natural states of being. They reflect what Jesus said about turning the other cheek. They also show the power of Abraham’s admonition to nations that experience their versions of what my client and I experienced:

Our sovereign power

It’s not that you turn away and invite the next strike. It’s that you offer a vibration so high you’re no longer in the time line in which a next strike can happen. In what happened to me, which I described above, I offered a vibration so high it literally moved the offender into a higher vibration. A vibration from which he was confronted with his own negative belief constellations as the Source of his pain.

Admittedly, these are high-order skills, much like precognitive abilities I wrote about recently. But such skills are available to us all. Accessing them requires devotion. A devotion to a certain path. Not the path of nonviolence, but the path of unwavering positivity. The path where we see only the best the world has to offer.

There, in that high vibration, we come into our sovereignty. We discover our invulnerability. Then we find that the world is our creation, malleable to our thoughts and beliefs. Just as it always has been. Just as it always will be.

Let’s talk about how you can enjoy a life similarly empowered in your sovereignty. Book your free session today. You too can enjoy abilities my clients and I are realizing. Abilities aligned with the Charmed Life. Where all you want happens effortlessly.

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.
