Crush it.
Before we get into today's episode, I want to take a moment to talk about something that changed how I think about skincare, and that's peak. Because here's what nobody tells you. You could spend a fortune on serums and creams, and still look tired. And then you start to actually wonder, maybe your skin is just done. But the real reason is that your cells are dehydrated and inflamed underneath. So nothing you put on top is actually going to fix it. You're just treating the surface when the problem is way deeper. And that's why I love Peak's Radiant Skin Duo. You take the sun goddess matcha in the morning to detox, calm inflammation, and turn your glow back on from the inside. And then their BT Fountain Beauty electrolytes throughout the day. This is luxury hydration with shermicides and hyaluronic acid that actually repairs your skin barrier at the cellular level. So your skin just drinks it up. They both come in these sachets, making it super simple to add in to your daily routine and just add it in to your water. They taste great, and you know exactly the right amount every time. There's no measuring, no thinking about it. And for someone who's running around all the time, that's a lot. So I'm telling you, it is fantastic. Right now, Peak is offering 20% off for Life Plus Free Gifts. So you have to go to www.peaklife.com/jennifersd to grab the Radiant Skin Duo. The link is in the show notes. But once again, to get 20% off, you must go to www.piquelife.com/jennifersd to grab the Radiant Skin Duo now.

All right, so let's get into it. Ready?
Today's topic could be maybe a little controversial, because we're going to be talking and exploring a topic that I think is probably the most popular self-help trend that I've ever seen.
And that is manifestation. And the ideas behind manifestation, what my belief system is around it, and all the things. So, A, what do you believe in manifestation, and just the idea of that whole trend?

**SPEAKER_2** (2:58)
I like some aspects of manifestation, and I dislike some other aspects of them. I think it's important to believe things, and will them into existence to a certain degree. You have to really have that belief system to back you up. But I don't think that it's...
Yeah, I think that there's a lot to discuss in the topic, but I do think that to an extent, having a strong set of beliefs and that confidence and sort of that self-talk is very important.

**Jen Cohen** (3:26)
So this is what I believe, if I do say so myself. I think that manifestation is a big, big umbrella lofty term. I don't think that it means it's not being pessimistic over optimistic.
I think that people value manifestation way more than probably they should. This is my, by the way, this again, is my opinion. You don't have to agree with it. You don't have to like it. It's just what I feel and believe. I believe this idea of, I'll say this, what I like about it. I like the fact that it gives, it puts the onus on the person a little bit, but not enough. So I guess that's not what I, I guess I like and dislike that. I think that when you only visualize something and not put it into practice by putting work into it, it means nothing. I think that too many people are thinking that if they think about something, that it's going to happen. So this idea of mind over matter, it is true in my opinion, to an extent, but I think it, what it does do is it sometimes makes the person have feeling that if something doesn't work, like if they, they're not taking into account psychological issues, socioeconomic issues, lots of other things. So just willing something to happen is not enough. You have to put in the effort, the work, and sometimes the struggle to get to what you want.
And so I actually, I'm not a fan. I'm not a fan of how it's overtaken everything in personal development and self-help, and it's the biggest thing since sliced bread.
