After Hurricane Ian, I had to leave Florida and move back to Minnesota. My personal belongings—furniture, keepsakes, and the pieces of my life—were stuck in a storage unit that had been damaged. The facility was boarded up until repairs could be made. Fortunately, my items were on the second floor and remained undamaged, but they were still inaccessible. Even if I could get them out, the moving pods alone would cost around $1,300, and at the time, I had no idea how I would afford it.
My business also took a hit due to the hurricane. Most of my clients were recovering from damage, and there was no power for a couple of weeks. Ultimately, I decided to leave Florida and move back to Minnesota without my belongings.
Shifting From How To What
Throughout the following year, I stressed about how to get my belongings to Minnesota. But then I shifted my focus from the “how” to the “what.” Instead of concentrating on the money, I focused on the outcome. I imagined what it would feel like to have my belongings at home and pictured setting up my bedroom with my furniture and décor. I could see exactly where everything would go. Most importantly, I felt the comfort as if it were already real.
I didn’t stress about how it would happen. I trusted that the way would reveal itself.
And it did.
A week before I was scheduled to travel back to Florida, I had an idea. I reached out to old cleaning clients, offering deep cleans and one-off services. One by one, new jobs came in. By the time I left, I had exactly the money I needed—and then some.
When I finally unpacked in Minnesota, it felt like déjà vu. Everything slid into place effortlessly, because I had already lived it in my mind.
This experience taught me something powerful. Manifestation isn’t about forcing money to appear. It’s about focusing on what abundance will give you—freedom, security, and the feeling of already having what you desire.
When you hold the vision and trust the process, opportunities show up. Visualization aligns you with your outcome. Faith carries you through the unknowns. And when you live in the feeling of abundance, the details take care of themselves.
