How to Take Your Manifestations to the Next Level

In a world where authenticity seems like a rare gem, it becomes evident that many people worldwide have not been living in alignment with their true selves. Authenticity, as we see it, is the key to unlocking a new economic perspective, and the current scenario is nothing short of fascinating.

Today, we're diving into real-life experiences to help you attain what I like to call "real wealth." Now, what does real wealth mean? It's about loving your life, achieving financial abundance, and finding true satisfaction in your work. Yes, life has its ups and downs, but it's all about creating harmony in your journey. And the gateway to this harmony? Financial empowerment.

As I've worked with clients over the past few years, one thing has become crystal clear: the pandemic, despite all its hardships, forced us to look within ourselves. We had to confront how inauthentically we were living, causing conflicts in various aspects of our lives, from our jobs to our relationships and even our communities. The echoes of this conflict still linger.

It's a testament to how many people around the world were not living authentically, in alignment with their hearts and souls. This authenticity, or lack thereof, is precisely what I believe is now manifesting itself in the economic landscape, and it's nothing short of fascinating.

You see, two primary economic indicators ruled most of last year: labor markets and consumer spending. The world watched in awe as these sectors remained resilient while news headlines screamed of impending economic recession. But here's the kicker: nearly 70% of the economy is driven by consumer spending. It's intriguing to observe how consumers, initially green and confident, have turned a shade of yellow, signifying uncertainty.

So, what's the message here? It's time for each one of you to hold onto your personal power fiercely. Never give it away to anything that doesn't align with your true self, for that is when you lose control of your life and everything around it.

Sure, there are things beyond your control—your boss, your kids, your spouse, your government—but you can influence them from a place of authenticity. Your heart carries a magnetic force that can reach over eight miles, while your ego and mind barely stretch two feet. So, it's essential to stay grounded in your personal empowerment.

How do you maintain financial empowerment? It starts with avoiding debt and making wise financial choices. During the pandemic, we saw a surge in savings as people created their financial safety nets. Household debt decreased. These actions kept individuals and corporations empowered.

Everything in this world, including your energy, is subject to your choices. So, ask yourself, what kind of energy do you want to emit? Do you want to dwell on past financial troubles or focus on expanding your future? The key is to concentrate on what uplifts and empowers you.

Your financial reality is what it is, but you can take steps to steer it in the right direction. Whether you are income affluent or asset affluent, it's all about managing your cash flow effectively.

In uncertain times, like a recession or a financial setback, tap into your empowerment. Make choices based on your financial awareness, adapting as needed. It may not always be easy, but it keeps you in control and prevents you from burying your head in the sand.

It's time for all of us to embrace financial empowerment and insulate ourselves from the uncertainties of the world. Take a closer look at your financial situation and consider how you can make choices that empower you. That's my challenge to you today.

How to End the Year Like the Wealthy Do

By Julie Murphy • December 10, 2025

Reset Your Money Energy for 2026 Every December, we all feel that pull, the desire to “be better with money next year.” But here’s the secret I’ve seen again and again after nearly three decades of walking alongside people from all walks of life: Financially wealthy people don’t just plan their next year — they energetically complete the one they’re leaving. They close loops. They clear emotional residue. They realign their energy field before they set a single goal. And you can absolutely do the same. As I share in The Emotion Behind Money , wealth is never created by logic alone. It comes from managing the emotions behind your money and understanding that money itself is energy. And in Awaken Your Wealth , I remind readers that energetic shifts begin when you consciously picture yourself stepping into a new reality, while compassionately acknowledging the one you’re standing in now. So let’s walk through the simple year-end process I teach my clients — one that spiritually, emotionally, and financially resets your money field for a powerful 2026. 1. Review Your 2025 Wins & Losses With Compassion Before you step into the new year, look back with the most loving, nonjudgmental eyes possible. I call it neutral observation . Wealthy people don’t spiral into shame when something didn’t go perfectly. They get curious. Ask yourself: Where did I expand financially this year? Where did I contract emotionally or economically? What choices were truly aligned with my values? Which ones came from fear, scarcity, or old patterns? In Awaken Your Wealth , the “Accepting Reality and Awakening” step of PACT teaches that awareness without judgment is how we break old money patterns for good. So breathe. Notice. Write it down. No shame. No spiral. Just truth. 2. Forgive Any Money Mistakes Here’s a truth most people never consider: Every financial mistake carries emotional weight and emotional weight blocks money flow. From my work in The 4 Spiritual Laws of Money , we know that your heart’s energy is more powerful than your brain’s logic, and intention is what redirects energy back into alignment. Forgiveness, of yourself, your past self, or others involved, releases stagnant money energy. Try this: Write down any money decisions from 2025 that still feel heavy. Place your hand on your heart. Say: "I forgive the version of me who made this choice. She/he did the best they could with what they knew at the time.” Forgiveness isn’t about letting mistakes slide. It’s about resetting your emotional money field so you can co-create something new. 3. Create an Energetic Closing Ceremony for the Year This is where wealthy people truly separate themselves; they honor the transition. You can create your own year-end ceremony using whatever resonates from your spiritual toolkit. Here are a few ideas inspired by the intention-setting and clearing practices throughout my work: Light a candle Symbolize releasing the old year and calling in the new. Write a “completion list” Include everything you’re ready to release: debts you’re no longer carrying shame over, relationships you’re energetically cutting cords from, patterns you’re finished reenacting. Burn or bury the list This physical act tells the Universe: “I’m done living from this version of myself.” In The Emotion Behind Money , we explore how inherited beliefs and emotional patterns repeat until they are consciously released. This ceremony is your line in the sand. End with intention Close with one powerful intention for 2026, aligned from your heart: “I choose a new flow of abundance.” “I trust that money comes to me with ease.” “I allow myself to receive the wealth I’ve been working toward.” As The 4 Spiritual Laws of Money reminds us: “The Universe responds to action.” Your ceremony is your spiritual action. Ready to Step Into 2026 Aligned, Clear & Empowered? If you’re craving deeper support with your financial reset, join me for my Emotions Behind Money Workshop in January. If you’ve been feeling the nudge to recalibrate your relationship with money, this is your moment. Let’s make 2026 the year your inner wealth and your financial reality finally match. You deserve abundance and you’re closer than you think. With love, alignment & a whole lot of possibility, Julie ✨
