Today Emaleigh and I wade into a big, buzzy topic: manifestation. Spoiler: I don’t subscribe to it—at least not the way it’s often taught. Instead, I share a faith-rooted framework I call the Law of Creation: partnering with God to renew your mind, steward your emotions, and take aligned action that shapes your life—and the room you’re in.

We talk about why “waiting for the universe” feels passive and self-focused, and how living as a creator (image-bearer language!) is active, relational, and legacy-minded. We also touch on the “observer effect,” the felt reality of our “energetic signature,” and why processing all emotions (not fearing the “low vibes”) actually helps your body and your life.

In this episode:

• Manifestation vs. Creation: why one keeps you waiting and the other gets you moving
  
  
• Faith + “Energy” without the woo: thoughts, emotions, and the observer effect in everyday life
  
  
• Your energetic signature: the mood you bring and how rooms respond
  
  
• Emotions as fuel: why we don’t avoid sadness, disappointment, or grief
  
  
• From default to design: identity, habits, and showing up as who God made you to be
  
  
• Real-life stories: how staying in creation mode opened surprising doors (hello, lake lot!)
  
  
• Simple resets: church/communion, journaling, movement, gratitude, and tiny purposeful actions
