You know that feeling when you really want something to happen… and suddenly your brain starts doing everything it can to convince you that it won’t?
What if it doesn’t work?
What if it never happens?
What if I fail?
What if I’m running out of time?
In this episode, I’m getting really honest about the fear and panic that came up for me while launching this year’s Ready Sept Manifest event — and how easily I found myself slipping into the exact kind of thinking I tell you to stop doing.
Last year, I nearly cancelled my event because the tickets weren’t selling as quickly as I wanted. Instead, Matt Cooke told me to surrender, let go and trust. We collectively visualised it selling out… and it did. There were ultimately almost 170–175 people at the event.
And this year, the same fears started creeping back in.
So I’m sharing exactly how I deal with that spiral, including:
- How to identify what you’re actually afraid of when you start panicking
- Why constantly asking “What if it doesn’t happen?” keeps you stuck
- My “Yvonne, cut it out” technique for stopping negative thought patterns
- The 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 — let it go method
- Why talking to yourself can genuinely help you shift your mindset
- The difference between letting go and giving up
- How to take practical action while still surrendering the outcome
- Why you don’t need to be “high vibes” all the time
- And why awareness of your thoughts is one of the most important manifestation tools you have
Because manifestation isn’t about pretending everything is perfect or forcing yourself to feel positive 24/7.
It’s about noticing when you’re spiralling, cutting off the story that’s taking you somewhere you don’t want to go, taking the action you can take — and then trusting that it’s going to work out.
Your job is to show up. You don’t have to obsess over the how.
And if you want to experience manifestation in real life, I’d love to see you at Ready, Sept, Manifest on September 19th at the Johnstown Estate, just outside Dublin.
Come by yourself, bring your friends or bring your team from work. It’s going to be an experience.
