Welcome to the Magnetic Creator Podcast.

2

:

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

remember who you truly are,

5

:

a powerful, magical creator.

6

:

I give you proven tools to help you

get unstuck and manifest a life that

7

:

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.

About the Podcast

Magnetic Creator
Manifest A Life That Sets Your Heart On Fire
Hello friend, welcome to the Magnetic Creator Podcast! I’m your host Melanie Mishler and my superpower is helping women remember who they truly are- POWERFUL, MAGICAL CREATORS!

I've developed and teach neuro-somatic manifesting. Science-backed tools to help you manifest what you want, get off the hamster wheel of life, step into your fullest potential, and create a life that sets your heart on FIRE!

I'm a manifestation teacher, energy worker, and trauma-informed somatic coach. And each week I bring you short snackable episodes 15 minutes or under. We’ll have intimate conversations about what’s most important in life: personal transformation, finding pleasure, embodying success, finding inner power and confidence, putting yourself first, creating a roadmap on how to live a fulfilling life, getting out of our own way, embodied transformation, and SO much more.

If you’ve dipped your toe into manifestation teachings in the past- my technique is a little different- I always say I'm equal parts of woo-woo neuroscience and strategy. And that's because I REALLY believe we need all three of these in order to create lasting and meaningful transformation In our lives.

Why? Because, you can do all the positive affirmations, vision boards, goal setting, and meditations in the world - But if you have underlying limiting self-beliefs that are playing like broken records in the background, then nothing is going to change.
At the same time you can be taking lots of action, and be really busy in DOING- but if you don't have a clear vision or roadmap to where you're going then you often end up like a hamster on a wheel going nowhere fast. SO FRUSTRATING. I help you break that cycle with practical, proven strategies, raw personal stories and lots of inspiration. I hope you'll join me!
