What if the story you keep telling is the very thing keeping you stuck?

In this empowering episode of Vibrations and Manifestations, Alicia and Jared respond to a powerful listener question:

“Is telling a new story just lying to myself?”

Together, they explore:

How Abraham Hicks reframes the idea of storytelling and manifestation

The science behind how your brain responds to repeated thoughts (RAS & neuroplasticity)

A deep dive into Sophie’s story—and how changing her narrative changed everything

How appreciation supercharges your vibration (plus a guided rampage of appreciation!)

Why it’s not about pretending… it’s about creating

You’ll leave this episode with practical tools to start telling your own new story—and feel better doing it.

🌀 Challenge of the Week:

Tell your new story once a day—and spend 60 seconds in a rampage of appreciation.

You’ll be amazed how much changes when your focus does.
