You are not the same person you were a year ago. And that is not a problem to fix. It is proof that you are becoming.

In this deep dive from Vibrations and Manifestations, Jared and Alicia guide you through what it really means to enter a new year as an expanded being. This episode is not about resolutions or hustle. It is about identity. About who you are becoming. About allowing your next self to step forward.

You will explore:

• What expansion actually feels like in real life

• How quiet role shifts reveal your growth

• Why becoming is cyclical, not linear

• The neuroscience of identity and neuroplasticity

• How expectation pre-paves your future

• Tools to meet your future self

• Reflection questions for the coming year

• A guided visualization to embody your next chapter

• How to gently pivot when growth feels uncomfortable

This episode is a threshold. A doorway between who you have been and who you are becoming.

Soundbite to carry with you:

“Expansion begins the moment you say yes to your next self.”

Before the day ends, write one sentence:

I am becoming…

Let that sentence be your doorway.

There’s a kind of “yes” that doesn’t come from pressure, fear, ego, or performance. It’s quiet. Spacious. Grounded. And it feels like exhaling after holding your breath.

In Episode 97 of Vibrations and Manifestations, we explore the deepest yes—the soul-level recognition that shows up as resonance in your body. You’ll learn how to tell the difference between impulse (loud), fear (urgent), ego (flashy), and intuition (steady). And we’ll guide you through real-time practices you can use immediately.

In this episode, you’ll experience:

• The difference between pressure vs. resonance (in your body)
• Two personal stories that reveal how the “deep yes” feels in real life
• The science behind intuition: interoception, somatic intelligence, and somatic markers
• Three guided tools to strengthen your intuitive signal
• Manifestation Debug Mode to clear the static and recalibrate in real time
• Reflection prompts + journaling support (and how to get weekly prompts via the Vibe Letter)
• A guided visualization: path → clearing → warm inner light → your next true step
