How do I actually attract the things I want into my life?
What This Episode Is About
Back after a month away for a book launch, Amy shares two real stories of becoming a vibrational match for what she wanted: her husband landing last-minute marathon bibs at a sold-out race simply by asking, and her own three-year practice of writing I am a bestselling author every morning until it came true. She teaches that you put your desire into the world in the present tense, from abundance rather than lack, and then take the steps that put you in alignment. The core message is to stop playing small, because your soul already knows you can build whatever is on your heart.
You show up as if now. And when you do that, the universe goes to work to create the different opportunities for you so that you can get what you want.

Meet the Mirror →Questions This Episode Answers
- What does it mean to become a vibrational match for what you want?
- It means putting your desire into the world and showing up as if it is already yours, so you align with it energetically. Amy says the universe then goes to work creating the opportunities for you to get it.
- Why does Amy write her goals in the present tense?
- Writing I am rather than I will be tells your subconscious mind you have it now. She wrote I am a bestselling author every morning for years until it became true.
- What is the difference between manifesting from abundance and from lack?
- Focusing on being in debt or what you lack is heavy and low vibration, so that is what you attract. Shifting to what you actually want, stated as a desire, makes you an attractor of that desire instead.
- Is it enough to just visualize and wait?
- No. Amy stresses that you also have to ask and take the steps. Her husband still trained for the race and sat at the expo for three hours, and she still partnered with women to write her chapter.
- Is it selfish to want more or to dream big?
- Amy says it is not selfish at all, it is your soul's desire. Society and culture can make you shrink to fit in rooms, but she wants you to rise up and become a vibrational match for anything on your heart.

I'm here to help you manage your mind so you can uncover the most potent version of yourself and create a thriving life you love. Hello, hello. Welcome back to the podcast. I'm your host, Amy Sanders.
And wow, guys, whether you've been paying attention or not, doesn't matter either way, but I have not released a podcast in over a month. And it's been for good reason. I've had to really think about different things that I was working on, the projects that I was working on, and some of the exciting things that were going on in my life. And something had to take a turn.
And I could backseat and it really did have to be the podcast. So if you're tuning in, thank you for tuning in. And I am back. So you will be getting a lot more coming through the pipeline.
I have had some really exciting things happen, which is what this podcast is going to be about. And I also have some nuggets of wisdom for you as well. And so yeah, let's I want to get you updated. First of all, the last podcast I recorded, like I said, was towards the end of December.
And at that time, I brought to you your 2025 year plan. I'm hoping you are still working on it and that you are doing the things that we are going to review those things. And it's still the beginning of the year. There's still so much ahead of us this year and so much that we can do and create.
And I am excited for what this year is going to be. I already have some really cool things that have happened to me this year. And so right after Christmas, my family and I went to Cancun. My ex had the kids at a different resort, but I did get to meet them.
I did get to meet up with them. And we spent the most amazing day on New Year's Eve. And then my husband and I stayed in another resort the rest of the time, just the two of us, and really were able to reset. And at the same time, I was working on a project that I even think I've talked about at all on the podcast, Shame on Me.
But I released a book. I co-authored a book and wrote a chapter of my life story. And throughout the holidays, we were writing it. So through November, December, we got done in December.
And then we started launching it in January. And February 1st, we had an official book launch live. And so a lot of these women that I had only been on video with for months as we're creating this project, we were able to meet in person at this beautiful library in Miami. And we were able to hug each other and be together.
And people came and we signed books, which was totally different. I was like, whoa, what? People are asking for my signature? It just felt surreal and incredible at the same time.
And then right after February 1st, the following week, we actually launched the book officially on Amazon. And it became a bestseller in all three categories the first day. And it stayed up at the top of the charts, like multiple days in a row, which usually does not happen on these types of books. And so many exciting things.
So I was meeting with people and we've been doing interviews and we have been out of town in Miami. I spent five days there. It's been a lot to say the least. And so there have been a lot of things that I've there hasn't been a lot of space.
There hasn't been a lot of space, even like mentally for me to focus on certain areas as that was unfolding, but it was incredible. So why I tell you that is not just because I have been a little bit absent with the podcast, but it's because for years I have wanted to write a book and I am still writing my own book right now. In fact, I have a couple that I'm working on, but I hadn't finished it. And it was a goal for me that I had.
And so by connecting with these women and writing our stories together, it was such an empowering experience. And it also helped to check off one of my big goals. One of my big goals of being a published author. I now have a book that has my name on it and that I have that people are reading and they're reaching out to me and they're complimenting me on my story and all of the things.
And it's incredible. Another thing that happened while we were in Miami was Chris came with me and it was funny because no other women brought their husbands, but I brought mine and he fit right in. He just hung out with the ladies. It was great.
But while we were there, Chris and I found out that there was this half marathon and marathon. It was the big Miami marathon and half marathon and it was sold out. And. That didn't stop Chris or me.
We both were like, Hey, what if we run this half marathon? And so he went to the expo and held up a sign that said, does anyone looking for two extra tickets or two entry slots? Whenever he said, I really want to run and sat there. He literally sat at the expo for three hours, but what happened was he found two different bibs that people were able to transfer.
I tore a name for a fee and we were able to run that half marathon. And so alongside the book launching, Chris and I are running a half marathon in Miami last minute. And it was also another incredible experience. And the lesson that I learned there and that I just think is such an important lesson is that in life, we've got to ask for what we want.
I know we talk about feminine energy. On the podcast and masculine energy and attracting everything to you. And truly you also have to ask and make the steps, take the steps and you can get what you want. It doesn't matter if it's a marathon bib or a half marathon or a new client, but you have to ask.
It doesn't matter if it's a relationship, but you have to do the little things that help put you in alignment, who tune you into that new channel of what you want. And so with Chris and I, we ended up having such a great experience in that marathon. It was a total party. We weren't doing it for time.
So we just got to run it for fun, called it a long run. And people were cheering for us. There were bands, there were DJs there for 30,000 people running it. So anyway, my whole point is ask for what you want.
Ask the higher being, your soul, put it out there and then do the steps you need to in order to attract it. And when you're doing this, make sure you're doing it from a place of abundance and not lack. And what I mean by that, I always use money and it's not because I'm obsessed with money. I love what money can do for us because it opens up more doors, but it's because it's an easy thing to measure.
So money is an easy thing to measure. Weight is an easy thing to measure. And so I do talk a lot about those things because they're, they're easy things to measure. Okay.
But when you come from a place of, I'm in debt, I'm trying to get out of debt, that's heavy. And that's a low energetic vibration. And because that's where your focus is, that's what will attract to you. But when you shift it to be what you want, I would like to manifest $10,000 to take my family on an amazing vacation or to put in a new kitchen.
I don't know. I know. That costs more than $10,000 usually. Whatever it is, like when you put out your desire, then vibrationally, you become an attractor of that desire.
And that's what, when Chris had that desire, he put out that desire, even though it was the night before the race, it was sold out, registration was closed. He still put it out there and people who were not running, who were at the, they had paid for their bibs, but now they weren't running for an injury or whatever. They walked by him. Two different groups of people walked by him and each one had someone that had a bib that they weren't going to use.
And because of that, he took that to registration and they allowed it. So it all worked out. So it's a perfect example of putting yourself out there, vibrationally becoming a match for the things that you want. And that's one example.
The next example is for the last, I think it's three years, for the last three years, every single morning. I imagine myself becoming a best-selling author. Now, I don't want to minimize what I did because what we just did was incredible and I did it with multiple women. But I write down every single morning when I'm doing my, I call my 10 dreams journal, the things that I'm working towards, and I'm always putting it out there.
I have wrote down, I'm a best-selling author for the last, I think it's been three years, two or three years. And when I decided towards the end of the year, I was going to be a best-selling author, I was going to be a best-selling author. I had no idea what our journey was going to be. I was minimizing it, saying it's just one chapter that I'm writing, even though that chapter is amazing.
There's a lot of content in there. And it gives you a glimpse of how I grew up in my story and as to why I'm so passionate about what I do now. But as I was writing it, there was a lot of like healing that went on from some of the trauma that I experienced when I was younger. And it was also very empowering to see other women and their sacrifices.
And their stories. And so the journey itself was incredible. And then when we put the book out there, the launch was incredible. Nothing short of spectacular.
And then we go to sell it, and it becomes a best-seller in all three categories. So all of this has happened in the last few weeks, which is why I've been a little absent here. When I came home, and it had hit best-seller as I'm on my plane ride coming home, the next time I came home, I was like, I'm going to be a best-seller. And the next morning, I go to write in my 10 dreams journal, and that dream had technically been checked off.
Now, can I argue and say I'm not a best-seller of my very own book? You're right, I can. But that's not what I put out into the universe. What I put out into the universe is that I was a best-selling author.
So technically, it happened. Technically, Chris and I were able to run the half marathon. Technically, I was able to meet amazing women that vibe at the levels that I love to vibe at. And now I have to run the half marathon.
And I have a whole network of women that I once did not have, because I said yes. And so I'm telling you these stories so that you can take the nuggets of wisdom and apply them to your own life. Where are you playing small? Where is your conscious mind telling you that you can't?
Because your subconscious mind and your soul knows that you can. Your soul is infinite. You are a... Godly being having a human experience.
It's infinite. And so we can achieve the most amazing things when we are aligned and when we are a vibrational match. And we become a vibrational match by putting our desire out into the world, making it known. And a lot of times it needs to be on repetition because you're telling your subconscious mind, no, I have this now.
I have this now. Like the published author, I would write, I am a published author. Not I am becoming one. I will be one.
I am one. You show up as if now. And when you do that, the universe goes to work to create the different opportunities for you so that you can get what you want. Your soul and the universe.
I like to call it God, by the way, because I believe in a God. Want you to have everything that's on your heart. It's not selfish to dream big. It's not selfish to want more.
It's actually your soul's desire. Society, cultures, religions, communities, whatever. Can make us shrink down to fit in rooms. But I want you to not shrink down.
I want you to rise up. I want you to become a vibrational match for anything that is on your heart. You can build it. If it's there, we've heard throughout our whole lives that there's a will, there's a way.
The Wright brothers were never supposed to fly a plane, right? Like it logically doesn't make sense. We have light bulbs. Because of Edison, he kept trying and trying.
He figured it out. All of these amazing things that have happened in the world were because someone had it in their heart and in their mind that this could be. And they figured it out. You can figure it out.
You don't have to figure out how to fly a plane. It doesn't have to be that big. But the things that are on your heart and the things that you put out into the world, the desires that you have. Can be realized.
And that's what I want you to know. And that's why this month has been so amazing is because I've been seeing all of this groundwork that we have laid out and we became a vibrational match for like, they might seem small, but they're actually big. Sure. Chris and I had to run and train so that we could be half marathon ready when all of a sudden there was a half marathon, but that created an amazing experience.
Sure. He had a hold of a sign for three hours and he did that happily. But then we got to run a really cool race and we have those memories that we will have forever. So we did do the work, making sure that we were trained, making sure that our bodies were strong at any given point so that we can run that race.
I did do the work by putting my desire out there to be a bestselling author. And then I found and. Locked arms with women to create a chapter. Chapter so that I could at least have one book published.
It's done. And it is a bestselling author. By the way, I will put the link. If you guys want to, to read it, there is a link to buy in the show notes and they're incredible stories of women rising above in order for us to rise up.
We have to speak up and become a vibrational match for the person that we already are. We are already hurt by the way. You're already the most. Amazing human on the planet.
You just have to show up in that space, in that energy and in that belief. And I believe in you. I'm taking you to Amy church today. Welcome.
So that's really all I have. I wanted to update you on what's been going on in my life and some of the amazing things that have happened in the last couple of weeks. And then I wanted to leave with you this little, I bought this law of attraction planner. I need a new planner for the new year.
So I'm like, oh, that sounds like me. And I thought it was going to be this like small planner. It's actually really big and it's really thick and it's really heavy. But as I opened it up, I'm like, oh, this is so my vibe.
It has all of these amazing like quotes in it and so many different things you can plan with notes and tabs. And I'm just like really loving it. I feel like everyone needs this planner now. So anyway, this is what it says.
And this is how I want to close out this podcast today is keep your thoughts positive because your thoughts become your word. Keep your words positive because your words become your behavior. Keep your behavior positive because your behavior becomes your habits. Keep your habits positive because your habits become your values.
Keep your values positive because your values become your destiny. Think about that. Keep your values positive because your values become your destiny. There is a lot here.
