When You Manifest Something Bigger Than You Can Hold

Let me back up a few months to set the scene.

I follow a woman who is enormously expansive for me in business, generational wealth, and success. We have similar Human Design charts, and from the moment I found her last year, I immediately recognized her frequency. It was the same as mine, just flowing into a different way of helping humanity.

Earlier this year, she announced a live event happening in Florida in November, and I felt a lightning bolt of knowing zip through me. I knew I wanted to be there and was supposed to be there.

I wasn't sure how I was going to logistically make the trip, but as I tapped into the idea of the event itself, I could feel myself walking into the hotel where it's being held.

I put the event on my calendar and kind of winked at the universe saying, "Save my butt a seat, I know I'm supposed to be there, but I can't be distracted by it at the moment."

I basically forgot about it as I continued doing life as I do it, heavily focused on getting my modality dialed in on the backend and out into the world.

She then raised the cost and I made a note of it but kept doing what I knew I needed to be doing.

Then I got a jury summons.

It was for two weeks in November, and I realized it was going to keep me from doing any of the three things I wanted to do, including the live event with this woman and some of the dinners I go to for Coterie.

I thought, "Well, this is interesting."

And, "I wonder what's going to happen here."

Because it felt inconvenient (not that I want to skirt my civic duties, I just didn't want it to derail so much of what I knew I wanted to do).

A couple of days later, I was on Instagram and here was the woman (her name is Leanne) speaking to the camera and she said, "I'm going to be at the Coterie dinner in Palm Beach."

My worlds were colliding.

I texted my client Autumn with a screenshot and wrote "omg," and she called me to tell me everything that had happened behind the scenes.

Leanne would be the guest at the launch of the Palm Beach Coterie table, and she'd offered some of the last VIP seats at her event.

It was layer upon layer of things I'd been desiring, stacking up, but even better than I could have come up with from my puny conscious mind. Even the other Coterie dinners I was going to miss got rescheduled so that I could make them.

The only issue was the jury duty.

I looked into it and found a way to request a deferment. I submitted my request and immediately bought my ticket to the event and my flights.

The next day, my deferment was accepted.

This was just one of those little opportunities that we often face, inviting us to choose how we're going to proceed.

I could have strapped on a weighted victim vest and felt sorry for myself that I wasn't going to be able to make the trip (that was becoming a 10X version of anything I thought it would be).

Or I could tap into the higher plane of things and navigate from there.

But here's what happened as I was on the phone with Autumn, who was telling me all about how things came to fruition:

My nervous system spiked with excitement and adrenaline.

I blew my energetic field out.

I felt like I was on drugs (even though I've never done them).

It was as if I left my body.

That's not uncommon for me, but this time I needed to bring it all in and be able to embody it.

The beauty is that I have access to my own work and I've done my own work (Soul Forward Method), so I understood exactly what was happening and why, and most importantly, what I could do about it.

I grabbed headphones and popped on the Embody the Expansion hypnosis audio (kind of amazing that I'd created this exact experience 18 months before, and it was exactly what I needed now).

I felt grounded in the expansion. My body was still a little keyed up, so I popped in the Deep Rest Reset audio and felt everything land.

Here's the teaching in this:

You need to be able to hold what you're manifesting before it can stick.

If your nervous system can't hold the frequency of what you're calling in, it will either not arrive or it will arrive and then slip away because you don't have the capacity to keep it.

This is the work. Not just calling things in, but expanding your capacity to hold them when they arrive.
