Can you really manifest your best life in 2026—or is it all just vision boards and vibes? ✨
In this episode, we break down what manifestation actually is (and what it definitely is not), how goals fit into the picture, and why affirmations only work if you do.
We talk vision boards, realistic goal-setting, and the difference between wishing for change and actively creating it.
If you’re thinking about 2026 and wondering where to start—or if you even need a goal—this one’s for you.

Christmas is officially over… but the feelings are just getting started. 🎄📖
In this episode, we close the book on the holidays and open The Book of Sentiment—a mix of nostalgia, purging, questionable gift decisions, and figuring out what comes after the magic is gone.
From putting the tree away (emotionally and physically), to debating when it’s okay to ruin a surprise, to realizing AI might be stealing Christmas as we know it—this one is part reflection, part rant, part reset. We talk favorite gifts, shopping separately together, and why the New Year might actually belong in spring.
If you’re stuck between holiday burnout and “now what?”, welcome. This episode is for you.
