The Universe Wouldn’t Let Me Give Up On Manifestation!
Are you currently a Pathway Member?: Yes
What was on your manifestation list?: Really cool, unique, handmade, organic styled wooden towel hooks for the bathroom we're renovating.
What workshops did you use and what blocks did you discover during the DIs & workshops?: Unblocked Inner Child, Clarity, and the Magnetic Self DRE. I discovered that I keep my self worth low and often accept the first thing that I find that will "work" or "do the job" for me, sacrificing personal style and preference in the process.
What expanders did you find?: My cousin shared a photo of some gorgeous hand made oak towel hooks on her insta so she would be my expander for this.
What tests did you face? Which did you pass? Not pass?: I found some really gorgeous hooks online, but they were out of the country, and I felt they were totally overpriced, so I said no to those (in the past, I would have just bought them even though I wasn't in alignment with the price). Then I messaged a woodworker I also found on Instagram and asked if he had any of the hooks he had custom-designed for his nursery - he offered to make them for a price I felt was fair but refused to pay shipping, so I also said no to this and held my ground.
Did you experience a magic dark period? If so, tell us about it.: After I had said no to both sources I found I couldn't find any more wooden hooks anywhere - even the very expensive ones I found didn't seem to have the style I wanted. I had asked a neighbor if he could make some for me, but two weeks went by without a response, and I felt he wasn't interested in the project, so I didn't contact him again.
How did your manifestation come through?: After I had given up and started looking for metal hooks (that I felt didn't fit with what we wanted for our bathroom reno), my neighbor texted me out of the blue and offered to make the original hooks I had asked for! I thought it would take him a few days or even a week, but he showed up the next afternoon offering a dozen of them - FOR FREE! I accepted four, and his wife was inspired to use some of the remaining ones in her own home.
What is your cultural upbringing and background?: I was raised following the typical Christian holidays, but our family was not committed to a church. Now I practice pagan holidays with my own family.
