Deconstructing Manifestation

Gareth Michael & Kim Jewell
About this episode

In this week’s episode, Gareth and Kim focus on an area that has risen to such prominence in the last decade - the law of attraction and manifestation.

They discuss their own experiences with the law of attraction, manifestation, and how their perspectives have evolved and changed over time.

They examine different parts of the concept that aren’t often talked about, looking at how people end up with unrealistic expectations, and why this leads to disappointment. They give their perspectives on what can be learned from this, and how to integrate manifestation into our lives in a more balanced way.
