(#122) How to Want Something Without Bracing for the Fall

Diana breaks down the difference between hoping and trained belief, and why manifestation has nothing to do with toxic positivity or sitting back and waiting.She gets honest about being a naturally anxious, type-A worrier who reframed her whole relationship with control after 2020, and walks through the real examples still shaping her life: the years she barely covered her bills while building her business, the vision boards, and the apartment hunt she's in the middle of right now. She names the pattern she sees constantly with her career clients, refusing to picture getting the job so a rejection won't hurt and explains why that self-protection quietly costs you the room.
