Manifestation is the theory that through regular meditation and positive, constructive thought, you can make your dreams and desires become reality.  If you really want something and truly believe it's possible, it will happen.  Leigh and Kristin discuss the importance of working to manifest whatever it is you want.  For women in a period of growth and change, like midlife, this means you can bring your remake to fruition with the right mindset, by truly believing it to be your new reality.   

WOTR's Tips for Manifesting Your Remake

• Create the clearest picture in your mind of what you want. Color, smell, sound, taste. Be detailed. Where are you? How do you want to be living your life? 
• Be limitless.  Try new things- none are mistakes.
• Don’t let relationships stand in your way. This doesn't mean cast them aside.  Use them as a way to learn and grow and enjoy the ride, but oftentimes people we are close to can have very strong opinions about what we should do and who we should be.  Manifest your own truest self, not what anyone else wants you to be.
• Make inspiration boards. Put them where you can see them.
• You will have insecure days! It’s okay. Have a sounding board and reach out. Have a community of women doing the same thing you are doing. Join our Sisterhood!
• Have pictures done of yourself that make you feel beautiful? Look at them and remember you are that woman.
• Don’t put up any boundaries to what you can manifest.
• Do not be afraid to invest in yourself and your business.
