Are you attracting everything into your life? What about if you're doing the work and it is still not happening?
In this episode, I chat about a conversation I had with a girl who said that she is sick of manifestation and toxic positivity - like you are essentially saying that if it is not coming into your life, it is your fault.
In a world that pushes instant results, it’s easy to feel like you’re falling behind. In this episode, we’re diving into the power of trusting your own timeline, staying consistent when motivation fades, and letting go of the excuses that hold you back.
Real growth doesn’t happen overnight. It’s built in the quiet, repetitive moments when no one is watching. Whether you’re chasing a goal, building a habit, or trying to level up your life, this episode is your reminder to keep showing up.
In this episode I also talk about the constant excuses that we make. We are always waiting - waiting for the right time to start, waiting to be ready, waiting, waiting and waiting. These are just excuses. Why are you holding yourself back?

Lessons From the Universe: Recognizing Repeating Patterns & Protecting Your Energy
Episode 119
Thursday, February 12, 2026 • Duration 24:54
In this episode, I explore Lessons From the Universe, specifically how life communicates with us through repeating patterns, synchronicities, and emotional cues. When the same situations, people, or feelings keep showing up, it’s often an invitation to pause, reflect, and shift.
I talk about the importance of awareness in manifestation, and how recognizing patterns can help us course-correct before lessons become louder—or more uncomfortable. Sometimes the lesson isn’t about pushing through, proving a point, or engaging with resistance, but about learning when to disengage and protect your energy.
This episode also touches on boundaries, intuition, and discernment, especially in online spaces. Not every comment deserves a response, and not every battle is meant to be fought. Choosing peace can be one of the most powerful manifestation tools we have.
If you’ve ever ignored a nudge from the universe, only to wish you hadn’t later, this conversation is for you.
In this episode, I discuss:
How the Universe communicates through repeating patterns
Why awareness is key to conscious manifestation
The energetic cost of engaging with negativity
Learning when to respond—and when to walk away
Using boundaries as a manifestation tool
Trusting intuition to guide aligned action
This episode is a reminder that manifestation isn’t just about attracting—it’s also about recognizing lessons, honoring your nervous system, and choosing alignment over reaction.

The Scientific and Spiritual Elements of Manifestation with Matt Cooke
Episode 25
Thursday, March 28, 2024 • Duration 58:23
For this episode, Yvonne is joined by Matt Cooke. He did not believe in anything spiritual, then out of nowhere, he heard the voice of his mother who had passed away 18 months earlier. An experience, that set him on a journey to try to understand how this could happen. He explains how quantum mechanics and physics provided the answer and helped him to understand why manifestation works.
Matt and Yvonne explain why they believe that with our thoughts, our feelings, and our beliefs, we absolutely can create our reality. They do this by sharing their own experiences and the details of several scientific studies. Before sharing, in detail, how they personally manifest.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Everything is just energy vibrating at different frequencies.
When your body's energy vibration changes, you become able to pick up on new types of energy.
Quantum mechanics dictates that what we observe (are conscious of) turns energy into physical reality. Where our focus goes impacts our outcomes.
Because 95% of who we are is subconsciously programmed, manifestation starts with self-observation.
Reframing our subconscious negative thought patterns enables us to rewire our brains.
Being positive is not about lying to yourself. It is being honest and accepting of your situation and actively taking steps to change things, knowing you will succeed. Being authentic.
It´s not about faking it until you make it. It is about feeling it until you make it, which acts as the switch.
To manifest your ultimate destination, identify the steps and manifest each of those in turn.
Why matters.
The moment you let go, is the moment you achieve what you are manifesting.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Everything is just energy. Science tells us that.’
‘Energy creates all things physical.´
‘There's a separation between who we are and the thoughts or the feelings, we're not the thoughts or the feelings.’

Episode 24
Thursday, March 21, 2024 • Duration 47:54
In this episode, Yvonne is joined by Pan Cooke who is an artist, cartoonivist and author who grew up with undiagnosed OCD. At about 10 he started to try to calm his constantly anxious mind using exhausting, time-consuming rituals.
He explains what the different types of OCD are and how the right treatment has helped him to manage his condition better. Pan is about to get married, has 300,000+ Instagram followers and a successful career as a portrait artist with many celebrity clients. He dedicates much of his time to sharing the stories of people of colour who have been victims of police brutality in the US, using the medium of comics—an incredibly effective approach.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
For Pan, thoughts that most of us would quickly dismiss as unimportant would seem like threats to him.
People with OCD frequently use compulsions or rituals, to try to neutralize intrusive and often frightening thoughts. This gives the thought even more power.
OCD sufferers do not enjoy their rituals, they overtake their lives.
Many people with OCD hide it and do so extremely well.
OCD can´t be cured but it can be treated.
Presenting information in a truly neutral way using the medium of drawings is an incredibly powerful way to share a story.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Nearly 10 years after the puzzle first showed up, I was diagnosed with OCD. ´
‘People with OCD are very good at keeping secrets, like hiding their compulsions.’
‘Social media is almost more of a news platform than a lot of actual papers and stuff.’
‘You can fail at something you don't want to do. You can fail at jobs that you hate. So, you might as well attempt something that you love.’

Thursday, March 7, 2024 • Duration 01:01:51
In today's episode, Yvonne interviews neurosurgeon, new york times bestseller and international public speaker, James R. Doty, otherwise known as Jim. Jim shares his personal journey of overcoming a challenging childhood and finding hope through a chance encounter with a compassionate mentor. He shares practical steps for manifesting dreams, rewiring the brain, and finding gratitude in everyday experiences. This episode highlights the power of manifestation, the importance of changing one's mindset, and the role of self-awareness in achieving success.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Start by changing how you view the world and your circumstances. Shift from a negative mindset to one that sees infinite possibilities.
Recognize the importance of value tagging in manifestation. By embedding your intentions in your subconscious and making them salient, you increase the likelihood of manifesting your desires.
Manifestation requires effort and action. It's not just about visualizing, but also about actively working towards your goals and being open to opportunities.
Cultivate a mindset of gratitude and positivity. By focusing on what you are grateful for and maintaining a positive outlook, you can attract more positive experiences into your life.
Learn to find peace and acceptance in the journey, regardless of the outcome. Avoid attaching your happiness solely to achieving specific goals and instead find contentment in the present moment.
BEST MOMENTS
"The universe doesn't give a fuck about you because it has no fucks to give."
"I'm an atheist. I'm a complete non-believer, at least in the context of organized religion."
"I cannot control my circumstances or my situation, but I can control how I respond to them."
More Effective Manifestation – Improving Your Visualisation Skills
Episode 21
Thursday, February 29, 2024 • Duration 13:32

As well as guiding you so that you can improve the effectiveness of your manifestations by honing your visualisation skills. The techniques she shares tap into the way our brains work naturally, which is why they are so effective.
Yvonne´s recent Instagram poll showed that visualisation is something that a lot of people struggle with. So, listening to this episode is highly likely to benefit you.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
As kids, we all played pretend games and daydreamed. So, you already possess the ability to visualise.
Most famous and successful people visualise and have done so from a young age. Yvonne shares several examples, during the episode.
Writing down what you want to manifest is a vital first step.
Engage all of your senses when visualising and notice your feelings of joy.
Get a snapshot in your mind and replay it several times, every day.
Repetition is essential, it makes your mind focus your efforts on achieving what you are manifesting and enables you to notice opportunities when they present themselves, instead of missing them.
Neuroscience proves that repetition is an effective tool.
BEST MOMENTS

‘It is repetition and practice.’
‘When your brain is focused on it, opportunities will start to arise.’
