I Manifested My Dream Birthday (Here's Exactly How)

All right, my friend, well, I had a big birthday a couple of weeks ago.

It ended with a zero.

I'll let you guess which one it was.

Um, but you know, birthdays with zeros tend to make people pause because it's the beginning of a new decade.

It's a beginning of a new cycle.

Um, with all of my as- astrology and numerology and all that, it's definitely the start of a new cycle, and I could feel it on the inside.

I've had, you know, lots of, lots of birthdays with zeros before, and they always feel significant, but this one felt really different.

It felt like, wow, there's a shift that's happening here, like almost like a rite of passage type of a thing, and I've been...

I was really tuning into this energy.

I'll give you a, a little-- I'll share a little something with you that my wife makes fun of me for, but I actually celebrate my half birthday.

[laughs] So back in November, I'd already start thinking like, "Wow, I'm gonna have a birthday with a zero next year, and what do I wanna do with that energy, and how do I really wanna be?" So I started thinking ahead of time, like, "What is it that I truly want?" And this is lesson number one.

I was talking to one of my clients last week, and she was telling me a lot about the things that she wasn't wanting, and I said, "Rule number one, when we're looking to magnify our miracles, when we're looking to manifest and bring more energy into our lives, is you have to be clear about what it is that you really want, not what you think you want, not what you want so that you can get something later, but what you actually desire.

What is that?" And I knew for myself.

I was like, "Okay, I could plan a trip.

I could travel.

I could do all these things," but I wasn't feeling that vibration.

I was like, "Yeah, travel, I've just heard so many horror stories about travel." I was like, "I don't know that I'm up for that." What I really want is what would happen when I'm traveling, which is to be with my friends, to be with people that I really cared about, the people that I love the most.

What I really, really wanted was to spend my birthday with the people that I love the most, listening to the music that I love the most, and having a meal, my favorite meal, at my favorite restaurant, which is the best meal I've ever had, and those were the three things I was thinking.

And so I knew if I was gonna do that, I needed to let people know in advance so that they could travel 'cause my friends are all out of state, and I did.

So I invited my friends from Minneapolis.

I invited my friends from Maryland.

I invited my friend from Virginia, and just, I just invited the people that I hold near and dear in my heart, the people that I love the most, and they all said yes.

I was like, "Oh my God, they're willing to fly.

They're willing to come." And one of those people was my really good friend Sonia of Disappear Fear, who has been on the podcast.

A couple years ago, I had her on the podcast.
