In this episode of Business & Brunch, we’re breaking down one of the most misused pieces of mindset advice:
“Act as if you already have it.”

Because let’s be real — acting “as if” can quickly turn into performing abundance, over-investing, and ending up in survival mode wondering where the hell your manifestations are.

I share my own story of following this advice to the letter and still ending up with more debt than momentum — and what finally clicked to turn it all around.

We’ll dive into:

• Why “acting as if” doesn’t mean spend like a maniac
• The real difference between embodying your higher self vs. performing it
• How I shifted from panic-driven decisions to grounded self-trust
• Why building your business from clarity + strategy changes everything
• The exact journal prompt I still use to check myself before I act

If you’ve ever felt like you were doing everything “right” but nothing was working — this is the one to sit with.

✨ Journal Prompt:
Where am I “acting as if” from performance — not power?
What would the grounded version of me actually choose right now?
