I want to talk today about what manifesting isn't and what it truly is because there is so much hype and talk and especially across the social media platforms that everybody gives such an idea of it's have a quick vision, use a vision board, few affirmations.
And there it is. And unfortunately, the laws of the universe don't work like that. Welcome back to Reconnect a Fire. And I'm Jo, Manifesting Coach and Mentor. And I help women.
actually start to reconnect to their soul, their purpose, and start living the life that they want rather than the life that they feel they have to do. Because when you start to understand manifesting and the trueness of what it is, it's all about reconnecting to your soul. It's coming home to the version of you that was always there but that was covered.
and hidden away through shame, fear, doubt, beliefs, stories, society, cultures that gave us an identity that wasn't even ours in the first place. We showed up as something that we felt we had to to fit in. We wore masks, we quite...
and down. We hid, we didn't stand up and become the version of us that we were born to be because it didn't feel safe or we got rejected or bullied or told it was wrong. Whereas nowadays we're starting to understand the concept of the ego, our consciousness, our subconscious mind.

of how physics works within the law of attraction and how we are energy. But something I've really connected to more and especially over the last 12 months is the whole idea of we're not just a body. I truly believe I'm a soul having a human experience.
And this is what's given me the expansion to actually feel and notice that I'm more in control of my life than I ever believed was possible before. And the more I connect to Source Energy through my soul and the more...
I understand and have self-awareness about the human that I'm sat here with and all her beliefs and all the things that I was told I was or wasn't and the way I feel and my thoughts and how they create every single experience.
But coming back to the soul doesn't mean I have to get fully involved with it every time. I can feel those thoughts, but it gives me the power to step back and look and gain more awareness of what actually is happening rather than thinking that's my only way and that is my entire truth when actually that isn't true at all.
And it gives you the power to tap into that intuition, the gut feelings that sometimes we ignore, sometimes we leap into, don't we? But once you're tuned in, you begin to trust your own decisions.
Joanne (03:53.164)
You start to see how much of your human side relies on everybody else's opinion or everybody else's ideas and you start to notice how often that you don't even listen or give yourself the opportunity to tune in to you, your core, your heart, your true desires, your true needs and wants.
not what everybody else's are that you feel you've got to follow through and connect to because you believe if you don't you're going to get rejected. And once you discover your soul you'll start tuning in to intuition.
In such a strong way, your self-belief, your self-worth, your self-love starts to actually penetrate so deeply it's expelling the energy outwards. And once it's doing this, you are now attracting more of those things that you did want and you're noticing that your fear of the unknown
The fear of being seen starts to vanish. So you will then becoming more visible as your true authentic self.
You're now sharing your work, your joy, your love, and that's now becoming the magnet to the right clients, to your ideal clients that start to come in. I work mostly with women entrepreneurs, female leaders that have started living a life of their choice. And it is a roller coaster. There's no doubt about it. But if we look at energy, energy's constantly moving. And if it becomes
Joanne (05:51.745)
It's stagnant, it dies.
So we've got to be either moving forward with our life or we're going backwards. And I'm certainly not going back that way. So I'll always start to move this way. But believing I was just human and this 3D world was my truth and what other people were influencing me and also their own ideas and their own fears were being put on me kept me feeling absolutely stuck in a little tiny box, trapped.
so unhappy, so despair with life that I truly believed I couldn't be any different. I didn't think I could earn any more. I didn't think I was clever enough to even understand anything different. And why would I even have the capacity to start studying again at this age? It wasn't even in my mindset.
It wasn't available to me in my view. I didn't have the people around me that would even know about this. So I was stuck and it wasn't something I was happy with. I needed the freedom. I needed this expression and I needed to get out of this. So four years ago I did it.
I left the NHS, I left the safety of the job, the pension. It looked all good then, it looked great. I left the community and then I left the house that I'd had for 20 years and paid the mortgage and decided actually I had to rewrite my life on my terms. Yeah, I took bold jumps but for anyone that has turned
Joanne (07:38.423)
and decided to start their own business will tell you the same.
It's all about self-awareness in your own self-growth because your business is a direct reflection of you and it can only grow to the expansion that you have, the capacity, because you can't expand a business if you're not self-growing, if you're not learning more about yourself. And as any business owner will tell you, there are days that you feel in absolute despair. You're working every hour and there's still
no results showing up in this 3D world and this wasn't something I was going to accept anymore because I've always had a feeling of a belief and this has gone through since childhood and I was always quite in tune with guessing what was going to happen and almost having an ability to know what was going to happen next and I think it was squashed.
as a younger child because my parents didn't like that. I mean, I remember driving. I wasn't driving. I was sat in the back. I was a child with my brother and we'd just picked up this massive Christmas tree and dad had dragged it on the back of his estate car and we were driving home and I said, we're going to get a puncture. Bang. Within a second of me saying that, the back wheel exploded.
My parents were absolutely looking at me in despair but it happened so quick they couldn't even argue of what I've just said. But it didn't help when we went on a family holiday and we had a return flight that at the airport I said I'm not getting on the flight we're going to crash because my dad's face just said it all. He literally went and mum was like well we don't have the money to rebook and the fear I gave my parents getting onto that plane but we
Joanne (09:37.793)
did have a horrendous flight back and even the air hostess looked scared but it was that moment that I started to realize that I had some sort of I believe things before I don't need to wait for the 3D world to give me the answer I know there's more to life I know there's more out there and this has been my own self-discovery but more
and more awareness of who I am and who I can be. I'm not stuck with the identity I was a week ago, a year ago, 10 years ago, 20 years ago. I'm not even stuck with the same beliefs I had last week, last month, last year. I'm constantly adapting them daily and I'm constantly using my imagination to visualise the outcome I prefer, not the one
this current 3D world is showing. Bob Proctor speaks about this and teaches this and that's who I first come into contact to find out exactly what this work was about and it opens your mind.
It expanses your energy. So no longer you walking with fear, but seeing fear for what it is. It's actually a doorway where your next jump of faith, your next adventure is going to be. But as long as you're sat behind it, terrified of the unknown.
you'll never get to experience that joy. And the longer you stay procrastinating and in fear, the harder it feels because it's just becoming even more impossible. Whereas when you're back with your soul, you can stand back and actually notice yourself having that experience, that human experience.
Joanne (11:44.345)
but you notice that fear doesn't actually live outside of you, does it? There isn't fear as an object. It's not a colour, it's not a shape. It's purely a form of your imagination. So if you can create all the doubt and all the fear, you can create in your mind all the possibilities and all the expansion and all the wealth and the abundance. And I'm all for helping everyone.
have the abundance, the money, the wealth they want and learning that often it's their self-beliefs that are crippling them and holding them back in believing that they can even hold it or have it.
So use your imagination daily in a calm manner. You need a calm mindset. You need to allow yourself to sit for a few minutes, close your eyes, come back inwards. Reconnecting to you isn't anything outside of you, by the way.
It's all inside. You often hear, don't you, the thing, you've got all the answers inside of you. Well, the truth is you have. You've just got to discover them. Meditate. Close your eyes for a few seconds. Start going and get some lovely books. Ask yourself when you walk in the bookshop or even if you go onto Amazon, wherever you go for your books.
What is it I would benefit from the most today? You'll be guided. We forget when you connect to your soul. So the version of you that has all the abundance, has all the joy, has all the prosperity that you could ever imagine. They are all for showing you, but you've just got to ask. And we don't like to ask if we're in fear or shame because we maybe have beliefs that it was never safe to ask. And when we did, we got screamed at. We got.
Joanne (13:46.315)
rejected, we got shouted at. So actually you're never the one that is in classroom asking the questions because you don't want to look stupid in case you get it wrong. We were taught very well through school not to stand up and stand out. We were taught that actually being wrong was something to be fearful for. Do you remember having the books and if you got something wrong and especially maths with a big red marker there would be a huge
cross with a circle.
because that really made you feel like you weren't worthy, that you weren't good enough, so you didn't stand up and speak. You didn't put yourself out for that. You didn't express yourself fully in your truth. You fitted in, and this is what happens. We all have done it. We all still do it in some format because there are still parts that still want to be seen but don't feel safe. So we make excuses with whatever.
So start to think in your daily day life, look at some of the patterns that you are repeating that maybe aren't benefiting and bringing the best of you out.
start noticing the environments that you're hanging out in. Are they uplifting you? Are they the next level of you? If you want more wealth and more money and more abundance and prosperity, you are going to have to come out of the current reality that you're in and start placing yourself in places that have that.
Joanne (15:25.1)
that have the consciousness from the other people of wealth, of a calm mindset, of prosperity, the feeling of spending without worrying. That's what prosperity is. It's just a feeling. And everything you want is actually a feeling. It's not even the object that you crave. But if you're in the 3D world, you're seeing the object and that's great because we're here to want more. We're here to create. There is nothing wrong in
wanting more. So if someone says to you don't be ridiculous, that's greedy, how can you want all that money? Well if you're going to be enhancing your life, building your business and giving more and supplying more and giving your family the best life that they can have and maybe supporting charities so they can excel, then you have every right to ask for as much as you want. But there is a ground law with the universe. You have to have a need for the money.
So there's no point giving out to the universe, I want five million, that's great, but I want you to write out what you would spend that five million on. You're giving out a list to the universe that then they can go, that's okay, we can deliver that if your beliefs match that you're worthy of it, if you're out doing some of the work to actually enhance, because there's always an exchange.
in life, in your day-to-day existence and everything moves in circles, in circulation. So what you're looking for when you want to expand, when you want to welcome more things into your life is what is it that you're giving out?
Are you being generous? Are you offering your time? Are you giving up things, maybe to charity shops, without feeling the lack but feeling gratitude that you can circulate some more money, that you can circulate some more wealth for other people? Because remember, what we give out, we get back. So if we're not feeling ourselves, we can't expect to get exactly what it is we want back.
Joanne (17:48.087)
So start to notice you. And when you do, start using that imagination. It's there. That's what it's there for. It's there to create your dreams, your desires. It's there to bring to life. And it's energetically your soul connecting to the higher consciousness that you are. And when you do that, that is when the magic starts to happen.
That is when the feelings of joy flood your entire system. That is when suddenly ideas come to you or suddenly you'll bump into somebody that gives you the opportunity or something on social media pops up that's prosperous and free that you were, funny enough, you were looking for that because you are divinely connecting to the frequency of what it is that you want. But there's got to be a need for it.
So don't start picking apart all the things that are wrong in your life. I want you to start building all the things that you want in life moving forwards and keep that in your imagination. The more you imagine what you want, the more is being created.
The more you fear, the more you see lack, the more you believe you're not worthy of, you'll get exactly that. The universe will go, great, there you can. I'm going to give you that experience today. You're going to see even more lack. When really, the abundance was already within you. But if you're not seeing it outside in your life, it means you don't feel abundant in there. And that's the first rule of everything. We've got to change how we feel in here. So connecting to yourself,
Reconnecting to your fire is the program I run.
Joanne (19:45.583)
It's a 12 week coaching program where we dive deep and we reconnect to who you truly are. So you have the opportunity to then start building the life of your dreams and actually start to notice who you really were all along because that is the abundant self that you are, not the fearful, lackful one that stands up and fears and constantly over worrying about money and what's going to happen and the world. You don't need to know all of that.
minute you just need to concentrate on you. You need to give yourself some time every day just to go inwards and that can be simply sitting with your eyes shut or do a meditation. There are thousands on the social media platforms. There's no excuse nowadays they are everywhere.
and what you'll start to lose is better than what you'll gain to begin with, with meditation. You'll lose fear, you'll lose anxiety, you'll lose worrying so much. You'll start to see what is truth, not what you believe it to be.
So when you start this work and when you start looking at your own self awareness and start to actually visualise what you want, don't be surprised if everything starts to shift because you can't have what you want if it's big in the current life you're stood now.
it won't happen and it will have to shatter before and nothing you'll lose will honestly it was never meant to come with you. So don't fear change and don't fear things seeming to go wrong in the 3D world because actually they're just rearranging because now you've given the answer and you can now call in what you want.
