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.

How To Make Money And Easily Serve Your Customers

TL;DR: Debra’s $10K breakthrough wasn’t about building a website—it was about rewriting beliefs. Discover how letting go of hustle unlocked her worthiness and aligned her with true abundance.

It’s been a crazy good week for nearly every Positively Focused client. My week has been the same. I want to share all that happened, but there’s so much, I don’t think I can get it all in before next week comes.

So let’s start with this wonderful realization one client had around a new customer she got. I think it’s an experience everyone can relate to. Most people believe you have to work hard to earn money. And for this one client, Debra, that belief showed up loud and clear—just as she was about to receive a $10,000 payment.

Debra is a talented entrepreneur who recently signed a client for a $10,000 website build. The client was eager, ready, and willing to pay. The project would meet all their needs, and Debra already knew the simplest, most elegant way to deliver: by using Squarespace. But instead of feeling excited, Debra was feeling something else entirely—stress, guilt, and resistance.

“I’m feeling this anxiety,” she said in our session. “Like, this shouldn’t be so easy. I should be doing more for $10,000.”

That thought—so familiar to so many—was rooted in a powerful, deeply held belief: that money must be earned through hard work. Debra’s entire system, built from family dynamics and work culture, told her this project required sweat, struggle, and complexity. Squarespace? That felt like cheating.

Going deeper

Debra’s husband, Jim, had offered her practical advice. “He said, ‘They don’t care how you do it. They just want a website that works.'” But Jim’s words, while logical, didn’t land. Why? Because the discomfort wasn’t coming from the client’s expectations—it was coming from Debra’s beliefs.

In the Positively Focused practice, we say: There is no amount of effort that can overcome belief momentum. That means: if your beliefs say you have to suffer to be worthy of receiving, then suffering is what you’ll get—even if everything around you says otherwise.

That’s what was happening with Debra.

So we went deeper. I asked her to explore where that belief came from. She said, “It’s definitely from my upbringing. And my time in corporate. It’s always been: prove your value, grind, deliver more than expected.”

Let the Universe do the heaving lifting and life just gets better and more fun. Just the way it was meant to be.

And yet, her life now looks very different. She’s manifesting clients. Debra’s building a business rooted in her values. She’s in the process of unlearning that old belief system—but the old momentum is still active.

“The Universe doesn’t need your effort,” I reminded her. “It wants your alignment. The work is in tuning your beliefs so they match what you are: someone worthy of receiving.”

As we moved through the process together, something softened. She laughed. The tension in her voice began to dissolve.

Then she said, “Oh my god. This really isn’t about the client at all. It’s me. It’s all me.”

Exactly.

Giving ourselves permission

When we believe money comes through effort, we trap ourselves in a pattern where ease feels suspicious, even “lazy”. And yet, manifestations—including financial ones—don’t come from how much we do. They come from how much we align. Action doesn’t create outcomes; it places us at the coordinates where the outcome is already happening as a result of our alignment.

Debra had aligned with a $10,000 client. The evidence was already there and it came effortlessly. But her beliefs hadn’t caught up yet. That’s where the real work was. By the end of our session, she said:

“I feel so much better. That anxiety—it’s not there anymore. I can see how I was making it about the money, but it’s not. It’s about me giving myself permission to receive.”

That’s what the Positively Focused practice is all about. You don’t need to hustle harder to get what you want. You don’t need to manipulate the outer world. All that’s needed is tuning to your inner world.

Because it’s not the work that earns the money. It’s your alignment that opens the door to it. Debra’s journey is one all of us are on. We’ve been taught to glorify effort, to earn our worth, to doubt our ease. But there’s another way—a way that honors our inherent value, aligns us with joy, and makes room for the abundance that’s always trying to reach us.

That’s the work worth doing. And it begins not with effort, but with belief. Feel the joy of being in alignment with the abundance that is yours. Become a client. We always have your back.

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.

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.

Ready to become one yourself? Take the first step.

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…

Maybe you’re ready for your beginning. Consider becoming a client and let’s get you on your way.

What Happens When Your “Bad” People Turn To Angels

Dianna D. Laura B. John F. For years, I believed these people wronged me.

They’re all either former colleagues from my days at Intel — the towering monolith of masculine, hierarchical energy where I once built a chapter of my life — or my time in the start-up world. And like so many beliefs written inside institutions and cultures like those, mine were layered with quiet betrayal, eroded confidence, and buried resentment.

Back then, I didn’t fully understand what was happening. Nor was I fully devoted to the Positively Focused practice. Now, though, I am devoted. And now, I fully understand.

Now I see that the versions of those people I created were showing me something important: not about them, but about me. And even more stunning? They came back in to my life.

Not in emails or texts, not in awkward coffee-shop run-ins, but in dreams. My dreams.

Because in my dreamscape, my Broader Perspective had more room to work with me — to show me the vibrational doors opening, which is what those relationships really were. They existed to help me soothe old momentum tied to money, power, gender, and above all, worthiness.

When Dreams Become Emotional Rescue Missions

At first, the dreams were charged, emotionally dense, visceral. Each figure reappeared not as a ghost, but as a live energetic transmission — stirring old wounds I thought I buried. Some dreams showed scenes that never happened in waking life, but carried the feeling tone of my deepest fears and suppressed resentments.

For a brief moment, I thought I was regressing. But I wasn’t. I was integrating and expanding. These weren’t dreams for processing “trauma” in the way psychology might frame it. These were missions of clarity from my Inner Being. A chance to be with old parts of myself — the ones who still flinched, still doubted, still wanted to be liked, still wanted to prove their worth to those who couldn’t see it.

The dreams allowed me to feel the sting again — but this time, with an enlightened presence. And from that place, something stunning happened.

I No Longer Needed Them to Be Villains

Dianna wasn’t cold and assuming the worst from me. Laura wasn’t manipulative and back stabbing. John wasn’t cowardly. Those were projections I held onto because they kept my story true — the story of being wronged. The story of being overlooked. The story of having to fight for space in rooms that weren’t built for people like me.

But in the dream-scape, I got to see the a different probable past: each were angels. Angels who came in the perfect form to reflect the energy I still carried. Angels whose final mission was to return in symbolic form and serve me not with apologies, but with their presence. By triggering my memories, they propelled my expansion.

Not because they had power to do that. But because I was ready to release the hold I had over myself and spark that energetic move forward.

I see now, thanks to my dream work, how people I thought were enemies, bad people, actually are angels.

What They Reflected Back to Me

What all of them had in common — what all of these relationships mirrored — was my own unconscious belief that my value was conditional. Conditional on performance. On likability, productivity. On never being “too much.”

It wasn’t about them. It was about the agreement I made long before Intel, long before adulthood, that I had to earn my belonging. And because the Universe itself is expansive and precise, as I am as a reflection of that, I attracted through it people who would play that game with me — perfectly.

They were never my enemies. They were my collaborators.

Worth Isn’t Earned — It’s Remembered

The biggest release came when I finally saw how this momentum had bled into every corner of my life — especially around money.

I had tied my financial abundance to how “worthy” I could be in the eyes of others. If I wasn’t producing, striving, or proving — I didn’t feel like I deserved to receive. That old frequency had kept me chasing manifestations rather than allowing them.

My dreams didn’t just help me see that. They helped me soothe it. Not intellectually, but, energetically. Each night, I returned to that dream terrain, and layer by layer, the emotional charge began to melt. It wasn’t dramatic. The process evolved over weeks. There were no movie-worthy “aha” moments. Just the steady loosening of tight vibrational knots.

Until one day I woke up and realized: I don’t resent them anymore. Not only that — I’m appreciative. It’s the same nonphysical experience a client recently had in wake-scape. That story publishes next month.

Diana, Laura and John showed up to serve the story until I no longer needed it. And then they returned one last time, lovingly, to help me release it.

This Is What Alignment Looks Like

Today, my relationship with my past is different. Not because the past changed…well it DID… because I did. My worth doesn’t live in their hands anymore. It never did. And that shift has changed everything.

I now allow money to come not because I’ve “earned” it, but because I’ve aligned with the version of me who no longer argues with her own value. My next post is a perfect companion to this knowing. It goes live tomorrow.

Today I attract people who reflect my wholeness, not scarcity. And I attract circumstances aligned with that expanded vibration.

I’ve always known dreamscape as a divine classroom — one that knows exactly how to reach me when I’m ready. Those experiences are increasingly showing me and my advanced practice clients how valuable dreamscape is. It’s amazing people live with no conscious connection to this deeply meaningful state of being.

If you’re still holding onto old stories about people who hurt you, who betrayed you, I invite you to consider: What if they were never villains? What if they were angels in disguise?

And what if their last gift to you is waiting… in your dreams? Book a session and discover how deeply in service to you your dream state is. And maybe you too will find those you despise are actually those most worthy of your appreciation.

What Happens When a Customer No-Show Makes Magic

Most people would’ve called it a failure, a waste of time. Proof that the customer was flaky and unreliable.

But that’s not what my clients saw.

What unfolded, last Friday, for both my clients “Maya” and her employee “Talia”, wasn’t a mistake — it was masterful orchestration. A stunning example of how contrast, when met with awareness, becomes expansion. And how apparent disappointment can reveal a deeper harmony, the revealing of which couldn’t have been scripted better.

Here’s what happened.

The Setup

Maya had been feeling frustrated about a particular customer — let’s call her “Sabrina.” She’d talked about her in our sessions before. To Maya, Sabrina was the kind of customer who never seemed to honor the schedule. Always late. Often rescheduling at the last minute. Sometimes, not showing up at all. And when she did, using way too many words to get a point across.

Naturally, Maya interpreted that behavior as a reflection of Sabrina’s flakiness. But what she didn’t see — at first — was that Sabrina was actually reflecting something else. Something vibrational. Something deeper.

She was mirroring Maya’s own resistance embodied in Maya’s negative beliefs about her customer.

That resistance also included beliefs Maya had about her business not being where she thought it “should” be; resistance about not doing enough. Resistance about not being enough. These coupled with the subtle belief that, because her partner is funding the business, she has to “prove” herself by pushing harder, performing more, and showing constant effort.

So when she saw Sabrina showing up inconsistently, Maya didn’t recognize her as reflections. She saw her as a problem.

But then came Friday.

The “Failed” Appointment

Maya had an appointment with Sabrina that day. Sabrina’s office is across town — a long haul from where Maya lives. Still, Maya got ready, even though she felt off. Her stomach wasn’t right. Her body was signaling discomfort.

In that moment, her Broader Perspective was whispering, You don’t need to go.

But Maya — like many of us — has old momentum. The kind that says “Push through.” She believes real leaders show up no matter what. So she discounts intuitive nudges in favor of obligation.

That’s what had her get in the car and start driving. Along the way, her discomfort increased. So much so that she thought she might pass out. She pulled over, tried to ground herself with food — a burger and fries — but it only made things worse. So, she pressed on.

And when she finally arrived at the nonprofit’s office? Sabrina looked confused. She gave Maya a “Why are you here?” look.

It turns out: Sabrina hadn’t even put the appointment on her calendar. She had no idea they were supposed to meet. And she had to cancel — on the spot, despite everything Maya had just pushed through to get there.

Now pause here. This is the moment where most people would snap. Maya didn’t though.

Most people would snap had this happened to them. Not Maya though. Talia didn’t either.

The Realization

Instead, she caught herself. And in catching herself she saw the perfection. If she had honored her initial nudge — if she’d followed the discomfort in her body and chosen rest over effort — she would’ve been in sync with what her Broader Perspective already knew: that the appointment wasn’t real.

She would’ve matched Sabrina’s energy without needing to live the contrast. She would’ve flowed instead of pushed. And Maya got that, after the fact, right there in the lobby.

Maya then she called Talia. Talia, who was set to attend the appointment remotely, was back home in Houston when Maya called. And the moment she heard the story, she interrupted with: “This is contrast.” This is because Talia, too, is a client. She understands the value contrast represents, just as Maya sometimes does.

And just like that, they were both in it — in the joy of revelation. What looked like a mishap was actually a mirror. A reflection of Maya’s old momentum: the belief in obligation over intuition, control over flow. Together, Maya and Talia celebrated the realization.

They saw that Sabrina was playing a role — not just for Maya, but for everyone involved.

Because Talia had something else going on that day too: a friend had shown up unannounced, hoping to spend time with her. But because of the appointment, Talia felt she had to prioritize work — and her friend had to adjust.

If Maya had canceled, Talia would’ve had the space to be with her friend. Had she canceled, her body would’ve rested. If Maya had canceled, no one would’ve been out of sync. In other words, the only thing “off” was ignoring the nudge.

That’s not a failure. That’s feedback. It’s contrast serving us, clarifying our path forward.

The Integration

By the end of the call, Maya and Talia had already changed their process framework. They decided to implement new appointment protocols — confirmations two days in advance, and again the day before. Not from fear, but from alignment. From trust. From learning.

Oh, and also heeding nudges/impulses from their Broader Perspective!

They also changed the way they saw Sabrina. She wasn’t flaky. She was an angel. A precise vibrational actor, playing her role in a scene designed to help Maya release old beliefs. The belief that she had to push. Beliefs that she must prove. A belief that this customer was misaligned and irresponsible. When in fact, her customers are always reflecting Maya’s vibration — and giving her the perfect material for expansion. Just like the rest of her wake-scape.

What I love most about this story is that Maya didn’t double down. She didn’t villainize Sabrina, nor did she snap. She saw the unfolding, and so did Talia. And in that seeing, everything changed.

This is what it looks like when you live from the Positively Focused perspective. Not because life never brings you surprises — but because you recognize that every surprise is alignment, in motion.

Even the ones that come disguised as a last minute, on-the-spot cancellation.

How To Find The Gift In Toxic Work Relationships

Every so often, this practice reveals something so elegantly orchestrated, it takes my breath away.

This past week, two separate clients—each at very different stages of their Positively Focused journey—experienced the same situation from very different perspectives. Each showed up carrying the weight of several difficult interpersonal dynamics going on between them. Both were feeling triggered, off-balance, unsure of themselves.

One is a founder and business owner. I call her Madison. I wrote about her personal experience earlier this week. The other is her employee. I call her Jane. I wrote about her individual experience too. This post seems like it might be a repeat of those previous two posts.

It’s not though.

Instead, this post reveals the sacred opportunities showing up when family members, or, in this case, co-workers, are Positively Focused clients. We get to see the sacred process from two sides; we get a rare glimpse at how two people co-create the larger expansion process happening between us all. Where we each serve as transformation/transmutation angels for one another.

Perfect mirrors and manifestations

From their individual perspectives neither Jane nor Madison knew what was happening for the other person. Neither knew what stirred inside each of them was part of the same vibrational story playing out in perfect divine symmetry in the other.

But I knew.

Madison came to her session feeling frustrated and confused. She believed her employee wasn’t showing up the way she hoped — there was resistance, emotional unpredictability and apparent unwillingness to complete assignments. All that left Madison disappointed, frustrated and angry. She wasn’t sure if she was failing as a leader or simply outgrowing a version of herself that still felt responsible for everyone’s well-being. She also felt she was not get anything in return for what she’s paying Jane.

Jane, two days later, showed up with her own agitation. Something gnawed at her — an emotional static she couldn’t shake. She felt misunderstood. She also felt fear. Her fear was about letting Madison down by failing at assignments Madison gave her.

Jane didn’t want to be a failure in her own eyes either. But Madison’s assignments were vague or unclear. That’s because it’s not only Madison’s first time being a business owner, it’s also her first time being a boss. So she too is insecure in herposition. She, like Jane, also fears failure. But Madison suffers from a double-whammy: potentially seeing herself as a failure and her partner Tom seeing her that way too.

Unbeknownst to Madison, she was getting exactly what she focused on, which is what her fear was calling her attention to. So was Jane. Jane didn’t want to fail in Madison’s eyes. But her fear of failure prompted inaction on vague assignments. She also feared asking clarifying questions because that triggered Madison’s fear which surfaced as frustration in the past.

Isn’t it ironic?

Jane, acting out of her fear, or, rather, not acting, was the perfect reflection of Madison’s fears. Madison’s fears, meanwhile reflected back to Jane her fears. Both women were getting exactly what they were creating; frustrated versions of one another. And both were pointing the finger at the other person!

Conflict invites letting go

And here’s where it becomes divine: Both Madison and Jane were each feeling the same frequency…from opposite sides of the mirror: Fear and insecurity. They were a perfect match, in other words.

Madison was wrestling with the idea that to be a “good” manager — she had never been a manager before — she needed to present a picture of flawlessness. Jane wrestled with the idea that to stay employed, she had to suppress her authenticity. One was over-functioning. The other was under-expressing. Both were reacting to the same energetic pattern: the fear that authenticity isn’t safe.

In their own way, however, each showed up ready to release that distorted belief.

In Madison’s session, she saw how “I must show that I know it all” was an echo from long ago — an old strategy to survive in corporate culture. The strategy wasn’t wrong. It was wise when she worked in the corporate world. It doesn’t work in the small business world though.

What’s more, she’s learning to lead from alignment, not control. But old echos resisted that. So she created a version of Jane reflecting what Madison was doing so Madison could let those old beliefs go.

Ah-ha moments from intensity

In Jane’s session, she saw that her agitation wasn’t dysfunction. It was guidance. A signal that her own expansion was arriving. Not through rebellion, but also through letting go and opening up, softening.

She feared something she couldn’t possibly do: letting herself down and letting Madison down. She needed to trust the version of herself that wanted this opportunity instead of fearing Madison’s reactions as an indication of something bad about her. This fear pointed the way to expansion through authentic expression (asking questions). That version is what Madison needed most. Not a “yes-person”.

A lot more than this was happening in the interpersonal dynamic. But what you just read highlights the main event. As a result, neither woman “fixed” the relationship in our sessions. Instead, they needed an extra session. One in which both attended. We held it shortly after Jane’s. It was intense, as fear is an intense emotion.

But it offered many ah-ha moments for both women. That call wasn’t easy for either of them. But they’re both better now, as is their working relationship, for having it. Both stepped more fully into clarity of who they are becoming…as individuals, as business partners, as employee and employer.

Other people are gifts

They also offered each other a sacred gift: the opportunity to evolve in real-time through authentic, shared contrast. Each was a reflection of the other’s edge. And both navigated it not by hardening, but by softening. Not by demanding change from the other, although both probably wanted that initially, but by each becoming the version of themselves that no longer needed the old patterns.

This is what makes the Positively Focused journey so profound. We begin seeing how nothing is random. How every difficult interaction is divine orchestration. How life isn’t punishing us — it’s partnering with us. Offering mirrored experiences that reflect the exact vibration ready to be released. Often that mirror is other people.

Madison and Jane never planned this coordination. But their Broader Perspective’s did. And in honoring their own unfolding, they became co-creators in each other’s expansion — each woman rising through her own contrast into a new level of sovereignty, understanding, and empowerment.

If you’ve been in a tangled work relationship dynamic lately, pause before blaming or fixing. There’s a mirror waiting to be seen. And often, what looks like conflict is actually harmony in progress — a symphony of expansion tuning itself through two instruments, you and the other person, learning to resonate at a higher frequency.

That’s what I witnessed this week. And it was stunning.
