:I'm your host, Melanie Mishler, and each
week we have intimate conversations about
3
:the things that matter most in life.
4
:My superpower is helping you

5
:a powerful, magical creator.

:I give you proven tools to help you
get unstuck and manifest a life that

:sets your heart on fucking fire.
8
:Are you ready?
9
:Let's go.
10
:Hello, hello, my beautiful
friend, happy Thursday.
11
:Before we start this episode, I
just have to give you a warning
12
:again, I'm still down at our home
in Belize and it is loud here.
13
:I don't have my proper
setup for recording.
14
:And it's been so loud with the birds
and the rain and things like that.
15
:So you might hear some background noise.
16
:I apologize for that.
17
:But it's going to be like this
for the next couple of months.
18
:You might be hearing some background
noise because we're here for the winter.
19
:And we're also in the middle
of construction because Andy is
20
:working on building our little
micro resort, which is so much fun.
21
:But anyway, on to the episode.
22
:this month we're talking all about
how to fully step into your power.
23
:And today we're going to explore
something I called manifestation ceilings.
24
:How they're keeping you playing
small, and more importantly, how
25
:to break through them and create a
life that you've been dreaming of.
26
:Maybe you've even just
secretly been dreaming of it.
27
:Maybe you haven't even told anyone
about these big, big dreams you have.
28
:We're going to go deep into this in
the vision board workshop this weekend.
29
:So if you haven't signed up yet, head
over to my website because this is the
30
:last time I'm going to offer it for free.
31
:It's a really powerful workshop And
it's a great way to set yourself up for
32
:a really powerful but for now, let me
explain what I'm talking about here,
33
:I started using this term
manifestation ceiling because
34
:I kept seeing something
interesting with the women I
35
:work with and the women I know.
36
:These were successful, very
capable women who would manifest
37
:certain things very easily.
38
:But then when it came to their
biggest dreams, like the ones that
39
:were really important, there was
almost like an invisible barrier.
40
:If you ever catch yourself saying,
like, I'd love to, but, or that
41
:would be amazing, but it's not
realistic for someone like me.
42
:That is your manifestation ceiling.
43
:It's the invisible barrier between
what you dream about and what you
44
:actually believe is possible for you.
45
:And friend, this isn't woo woo.
46
:It's not about just thinking positive.
47
:This is about The stories
you've collected about what's
48
:possible for someone like you.
49
:Maybe it's, I can't start a
business until my kids are older.
50
:That's a really, really big one.
51
:. Or I don't have the right
background for that.
52
:Or that kind of success
is for other people.
53
:And the tricky thing about manifestation
ceilings is they feel totally logical.
54
:They feel like you're
just being realistic.
55
:You can even prove them, right?
56
:You have evidence of them everywhere
you look, because here's what happens
57
:when we have a thought that we
keep thinking over and over again.
58
:It becomes a belief.
59
:And our brains are so powerful.
60
:that it will work over time to
show us proof of our beliefs.
61
:That's what it's doing 24 7.
62
:, but here's what I've discovered
about these manifestation ceilings.
63
:What feels like we're being
realistic is often just staying
64
:comfortable with what's familiar.
65
:It's just our brain keeping us safe.
66
:So let me share some examples of what
manifestation ceilings look like in real
67
:life, what they look like in action.
68
:Let's say you are great
at manifesting clients.
69
:But you keep hitting the same
income ceiling, or maybe you're
70
:too scared to raise your prices.
71
:Another one would be you can
envision a bigger business, but
72
:you're only allowing yourself to
grow realistically, like 10 percent
73
:a year, maybe 20 percent next year.
74
:You might desire a deeper relationship
or desire to find a lover or a love,
75
:but you've convinced yourself that
it's just not possible right now.
76
:The dating scene, the apps, all the
things too complicated and , there's
77
:just no good partners out there for you.
78
:They show up in every aspect of our
life where we have a limiting belief.
79
:I remember I once worked with
a woman who had a manifestation
80
:ceiling about relationships.
81
:She believed that she couldn't find love
or get married because of her weight.
82
:This ceiling felt so real to her until
we started to actually question it.
83
:And once you start to question these
ceilings with someone, once you have
84
:someone to kind of bounce them off
of, they dissolve pretty quickly.
85
:Because here's what we ask,
like, is it true that only
86
:certain sizes of women find love?
87
:Well, of course not.
88
:Is it true that they only make
wedding dresses up to a size like 14?
89
:Of course not.
90
:Women of all sizes and shapes find
love and get married every day.
91
:This is where working with someone
else can be really powerful because
92
:they can shine a light on what's
possible and ask and challenge
93
:you and say, is this really true?
94
:But here's what makes
these ceilings so sneaky.
95
:They often masquerade as wisdom,
as being practical, as protecting
96
:yourself from disappointment.
97
:And the most interesting part is they
show up differently at every level.
98
:Because I've worked with women making
50, 000 who think 100, 000 is impossible.
99
:and I know women who make 500, 000
who think a million is impossible.
100
:The numbers can change, but
the ceilings feel just as real.
101
:And here's the thing with
manifestation ceilings.
102
:We all have them.
103
:And most of the time we're totally
unaware of them until we start to
104
:question what's really possible for you..
105
:next week, we're going to talk about
something completely different, which
106
:is what happens when you actually start
to break through these manifestation
107
:ceilings and your body, your nervous
system will put the brakes on.
108
:And that's a completely different
process that's called upper limiting.
109
:So, but for now, I have
two invitations for you.
110
:First, I want you to grab your spot in
this weekend's vision board workshop.
111
:It's the last time I'm offering it for
free, and we're going to go really, really
112
:deep into identifying and breaking through
your specific manifestation ceilings.
113
:the link will be in the show notes.
114
:Or you can just head over to my website.
115
:And second, I want you to do
something brave this week.
116
:I want you to notice where you're
editing your dreams to fit down into your
117
:current reality , instead of expanding
your reality to match your dreams.
118
:And if you notice this in yourself
and you're ready to break through
119
:manifestation ceiling once and
for all, message me and we can
120
:explore how to work together
because here's what I know for sure.
121
:The life that you're dreaming
of, it's not just possible, it's
122
:waiting for you to claim it.
123
:That vision was put in you for a reason.
124
:And you can keep playing small, you
can keep staying in your safe zone, but
125
:the longer you stay in that safe zone,
the more friction it creates, the more
126
:tension that builds because those dreams,
those bigger dreams are meant for you
127
:and they are a thousand percent possible.
128
:. All right, friend, I know this was short,
but this month's episode are compounding.
129
:They're tiny little episodes that compound
on top of each other to help you really
130
:step into your personal power for 2025.
131
:So I will see you this Sunday.
132
:until then, be well and keep
manifesting an epic fucking life.
