Yesterday in Part 1, we explored Time as the first currency of trust.
Today, we move to the next exchange—Energy, the current that turns belief into motion.
I didn’t need to see the inside of the house to know.
The moment the ferry touched the dock, my whole body said yes.
But energy rarely travels in a straight line. It spirals. It tests. It asks—are you willing to hold this much? How about this much? A little more?
Always inviting us to expand.
That night, back in our hotel, I stared out the window and felt the weight of wanting settle in.
What if saying yes to this meant disappointing people I loved?
What if it asked more of me than I was ready to give?
What if this was the moment the dream slipped through my fingers because I couldn’t let myself reach for it?
This is the part no one talks about—the emotional labor behind the manifestation.
It’s the invisible work of expanding your energetic credit limit.
When you stand in front of what you’ve always wanted, the body runs a full diagnostic:
Can I hold this?
Do I deserve this?
Will I be safe if I receive this?
And every unhealed story answers first.
The practical voice whispers about debt ratios and down payments.
The loyal voice worries about leaving family behind.
The protective voice insists you should be grateful for what you already have.
And the most dangerous of them all: The modest voice—rooted in false humility and imposter syndrome—warns that others will think you’re showing off, that wanting more will make you less likable, less relatable, less “good.”
These voices aren’t enemies; they’re echoes of who we once needed to be to survive. They’re learning, along with us, how to trust expansion.
That night, I made the quietest, fiercest decision of my adult life.
I chose to believe I could be the woman who lived in that view.
Not someday. Now.
That choice shifted everything.
It was the energetic down payment before the financial one.
The ask before the application.
From that moment, every action felt like alignment catching up to belief.
And once I said yes internally, I began to say it aloud—to a carefully chosen few.
One of the most powerful tools in my toolbox is inviting others to hold the dream with me.
I would walk them through the photos of the house and the view, describing how morning light would spill across my desk, how the trees would frame each season.
Together, we imagined my life there.
Every conversation was a shared invocation—an amplification of yes that the Universe could not ignore.
Trust, built in time, had prepared me for this next exchange.
Energy is the first yes.
Money follows clarity.
The Universe rearranges itself the moment your frequency stabilizes in certainty.
We hadn’t made an offer yet.
But something in me had already crossed the threshold.
The next morning, before we boarded the plane, I cast myself back to the island and whispered a promise to the land:
I’ll come back for you.
And the wind answered: Then I’ll be here.

My energy is a magnet for aligned opportunities.

I am safe in my desire.

I believe in the version of me who already has it.
PS: Profit is Protest—especially when your desire becomes your declaration. Every yes we hold stretches us wider, preparing the vessel for more.
PPS: Tomorrow, in Part 3, we’ll explore what happens when the yes begins asking for space—how to build your capacity wide enough to hold what you’ve called in.
