Hate it so much!!! Especially in the area of babies/fertility. I can't believe someone said that to your friend. I absolutely agree that it totally ignores people's privilege. I mean yes write down your goals and go for your life but some people have inherent advantages that they should recognize. There's so many grifters out there spewing that kind of nonsense and it's so irritating.

I'm the Beyoncé friend!!!! AM I FAMOUS NOW? Made the 'stack. Obsessed.

Love this so much – I wrote about manifesting and how I felt like it worked for me before, but as a healthily sceptical person I can completely acknowledge that anything I got was as a result of my own hard work, and that when bad things happen it's not because I didn't concentrate hard enough on nice things. <3

you are the friend! I remember your post, and I remember being like UGH AISLING but I know it's a comforting nice idea and if it does inspire change then good but there is a flip side.
