Finding the Ideal Space & Opportunity After A Major Rockbottom
Sharing my experience of manifesting as a non-specific manifestor, in case it's expansive for anyone. Two years ago, in January, I moved out of my ex-husband's house, in 20 minutes (upon discovering his latest affair) with only my dog, camera and everything that fit inside my jeep. I rock bottomed so hard that month and lost everything - my marriage, living situation, health insurance, phone, job (I was working for his family business), "best friend," and I had just submitted my citizenship paperwork after being a resident for 15 years. A couple of days after moving out, I was on the porch of my friend's house that I moved into, trying to detach myself emotionally so I can cope by envisioning this is all as a movie, curious how it would unfold.
Fast forward a little, to one year ago, when a friend I made through Instagram introduced me to Lacy's work and took me in, as I was about to lose my apartment because I could no longer afford it and had no income, and offered to let me live in her art studio. It was "everything" on my list, light-filled, small, minimalist, and my dog could be with me, steps away from the ocean. I shared the kitchen and the bathroom with the main house. After the breakup I wanted to be wanted by men and have fun yet around this time when I moved in with her, I was tired of partying on my credit card and craved to connect with myself, to have time and space to take baths and cook for myself, having my own space. I told my friend I was living with, "I wish I could be on the money-making side of partying and alcohol."
Fast forward a couple months, and job tests later, a job fell in my lap for a gorgeous winery that didn't even exist when I spoke my wish. I was hired based on who I am, not my resume. In the meantime, I still deeply craved my own space, light-filled, small, minimalist, where I could have my dog, but also my own kitchen and bathroom and intimate space. In November, I manifested that for much less than I thought I'd have to pay, and moved in 5 days after looking at the place. Brand new everything (I peeled the plastic off the stove) I was the first person to live in it. Unfortunately, as it happens in the industry, my hours were starting to be cut back at the winery, and I found myself craving a part-time position somewhere with more positive energy than alcohol.
Days later, I saw a friend sneak into a shop with windows covered in paper. She was opening a beautifully curated plant shop, and offered me a job on the spot, no qualification required. And the craziest part? Remember how I imagined this whole thing was a movie? Well, I've been chronicling my experience, and right before Christmas, a lovely local filmmaker met with me, listened to my story and offered to mentor me in scriptwriting and help me make a movie. For free. This all sounds crazy to me to write as it's only been two years since the craziest rock bottom I've ever experienced. So my take away from all of this, learning to manifest as a non-specific manifesto is not to "not have lists" but to allow for the details of the desired outcome to be filled in by the Universe, as sometimes they're even better and wilder than we can imagine.
As my intuitive says, "this or something better" And with Lacy's work on my side, it's all coming together, more and more every day. Hoping the next photo and manifestation story I share after this will be with my magnetic partner by my side, from my movie premiere. Or something even better. Who knows, crazier things have happened ;) sending love to you all on this magical palindrome day <3 #mymagneticstory
