There’s a part of money manifestation that doesn’t get much airtime — the space where you’re doing your part, staying intentional, and still waiting for the result to arrive. In this episode, Aimee speaks directly to that in-between season: when the desire feels aligned, but the timing hasn’t matched yet, and it’s starting to bring up disappointment, doubt, or pressure.

This conversation gently explores what it actually means to be a co-creator with money - not from a place of forcing, bypassing, or pretending everything feels good - but from emotional honesty and grounded alignment. Aimee unpacks how to hold possibility without shutting down, how to stay connected to faith when results are delayed, and why alignment is about who you’re being, not just what you’re doing.

You won’t find quick fixes or promises here - just a calm reminder that waiting doesn’t mean you’re failing, and alignment is something you can return to again and again.

Let's talk about the part of money manifestation that

no one wants to talk about.

The part where it hasn't happened yet.

Because being a money magnet isn't magic.

It's co-creation.

You have a role, the universe has a role, God has a role, and when you understand

the difference, everything shifts.

So if you know that your desires are aligned, aligned, but you're struggling

with the waiting, or if you find yourself like shutting down because it

just hasn't happened yet, um, or maybe you're disappointed and you question

whether it's even possible anymore, or you've been trying to hold the

excitement of okay, possibility, what could happen, but also trying to navigate

the pressure of it hasn't happened yet.

You are in the right place.

We're gonna talk today about staying in alignment long enough to see the thing

come to fruition and what doing your part and being a co-creator with God

in the universe actually looks like.

So let's get to it.

This is Money Simplified, the podcast where I help female

entrepreneurs go from stress and struggle to unstoppable with money.

specific episode this morning.

So we whipped out the camera and hit record.

need to work on, then I would join my.

30 day money magnet challenge.

Okay?

Okay.

And if this is one that's gonna come back next year, or if this

is a one time thing, one and done.

So if you're feeling the pool, make sure to check out that link.

Now let's talk about what it really looks like to be a money

magnet and the difference here.

We've got multiple schools of thought really.

So we had the one school of thought that doesn't really believe in manifestation,

that doesn't really believe in.

Uh, okay, let's put it this way.

They believe they're controlling, like they're in control of all the

things that they're doing, right?

So this is like, we're just gonna work harder to get there.

Probably some of the shifting your mindset might show up.

Some like, you gotta have the right mindset, but they believe

we gotta do it all right?

And then we have the other side of thinking, which is

like, we have no control.

There's nothing that we can do to be in any control of what goes on.

We're just kind of living life.

We're subject to the predetermined path.

Nothing you can do, think or believe is gonna change the outcome, and

like most things in life, neither one of those extremes are correct.

From what I've seen and what I believe, of course you're entitled to

your opinion, but we're co-creators.

So everything that you want and everything that you desire and

everything that's been put on your heart,

all those things are coming to you in your greatest good.

And sometimes it doesn't look like what we think it's gonna look like, right?

We're expecting it to come in one way and it comes in a different way.

And we're actually gonna get into some of that here.

And so you're expecting that you're gonna hit a $10,000 month in your business,

but your spouse gets a $10,000 bonus.

And then you're frustrated because it didn't show up.

You didn't do the thing well, you still received it.

It just didn't come in the way that you thought it would.

Okay.

But we're co-creators.

We have to do our part

because you have to be in energetic alignment if we wanna look at it that way.

Spiritual alignment, like those things.

We have to have the faith and the belief that it's gonna work out for us.

And it can work out tomorrow, right?

It's all coming to you.

And the correct timing, it's already decided omni, present, right?

Past, present, future, all at the same time.

It's already decided.

Our job is to be in alignment and have the faith.

That's our co-creator part.

Like we have to do our part, and that's kind of easier said than done, right?

We have beliefs that come up that it's like.

Rich people are bad.

Or if I have this like this, I'm not gonna feel loved, or I won't be loved.

If I have this, I won't be chosen.

It's not safe to be seen.

All of these underlying beliefs that are human experience, right?

Because our humans flawed.

We live in a flawed world.

That's just how it ha works.

Okay?

But we have to be in alignment and hold.

That pressure of the not yet.

It hasn't come in yet.

The not yet, but still be in the excitement of what if?

What if it showed up tomorrow?

What if it showed up today?

What if while you're listening to this podcast episode, you got a text

notification and everything that you have been waiting for happened?

What if it wasn't that far off?

But at the same time, we have to hold that possibility without.

Shutting down.

Okay.

And so we have to hold the possibility that it could be a six figure launch.

You could receive that payment, you could have these things.

The person you're in love with can choose to be with you, whatever you're trying

to come up with different examples, but I don't wanna put things in your mouth.

So those things that, like your deepest desires, the travel you wanna do.

The way that you wanna be loved, the way that you want to parent,

the things that you want your kids to see and hear, and to do.

Like all of those things that you're praying for, that you're expecting to

happen, that you're believing for the new home, the new vehicle, the ease, all of

those things, they're possible, right?

And we have to be able to sit in that possibility and truly believe that

it's possible without shutting down.

Because we can go polar extreme, and I know I'll use a launch that I had

several years ago, as an example.

I put everything ev, everything I could at the time, right?

Because you know, sometimes we say that like I gave you everything and

it's like, I didn't ask you to do that.

Like, okay.

But everything that I felt like I could at that time, I held the belief.

I went into that launch with full expectation that it was

gonna be a phenomenal launch.

And I closed cart and nobody converted.

I had one person buy, buy a VIP upsell.

So I think I made like $47 on the entire launch.

And in that moment,

the disappointment hit.

And this is like the other side of it.

Okay?

So we have the possibility, we gotta hold the possibility without shutting

it down that it's not gonna happen.

And then if it doesn't happen, like it didn't happen in that launch for me.

We have to hold the disappointment without retracting and shutting down

and giving up and feeling like, oh, okay, it's never gonna work for me.

And in that moment, in that launch, I did not do that at all.

And there is nothing wrong with like taking space.

'cause what I ended up doing is I took space and I stepped back

and it was like, okay, is this something still that I want to do?

And reevaluating, looking at the why.

Versus looking at the how, looking at why I was doing anything.

Was I still passionate about this?

Was this still something that like was important to me that I wanted to do?

Or was I moving into a different season

and it was an alignment and I did come back and I know because I've had that

launch, like the difference in the way I'm able to hold and support my clients and.

It becomes a, because of that, for me, because of that launch, I'm

able to support my clients better.

I have this level of expertise, like it's part of my story.

It wasn't the outcome that I wanted, but it was the outcome that I needed.

But my launch success was coming.

It just wasn't that time.

But in that moment, before I was aware of this, I should say, I didn't hold that

dis disappointment without retracting.

Okay, so I retracted in that moment.

It was like, it's never gonna work for me.

Works for everybody else.

You know, we've all had that negative self-talk, right?

But the balance is, is we have to be able to hold both, because

I've also like, after that, I've gone into launches with this.

Like it doesn't have to be perfect.

Like I'm okay if it doesn't happen, but there's a little bit

of a coping mechanism because I didn't wanna be disappointed again.

That human aspect.

Right, but still unfair.

I kind of feel like that's it.

Like that might be where we leave it because we have to do both.

There's things that we have to do.

We have to shift our identity, shift our beliefs, because again, we're

co-creators with God in the universe.

Right.

They can, like, you can't hide from your thoughts.

So if you are putting on this show that like, oh yes, like I

believe this, I believe that.

But the little voice in the back of your head's going, yeah, right.

Done that before, not gonna work out for you and never works out for you.

If that's what's going on.

We're not in alignment.

It's not just what you're doing, it's who you are while you do these things.

And that's what creates the money magnetism, because you're in alignment

like mind, body, and soul alignment.

It's all of it.

And when your human steps in with the fear, we know how to handle

it when we're in alignment.

Okay, so before we go, if this was like.

Um, yeah, the, the, I I need more of this, Aimee, right?

Then, um, I wanna invite you to join me inside the 30 day money magnet challenge.

Okay?

If you want money to feel easier, more peaceful, more aligned, like doing all

the things that should be different by now, Aimee, and something still

inside you, like just tightens, every time you think about your finances,

this challenge is gonna be for you.

Here's what I believe.

Everything you desire is already on its way to you, but it can only land when

you're in an energetic match for it.

That means your beliefs, your identities, and your actions all need to be aligned.

All need to be aligned with receiving, not hustling, not forcing, not performing.

This challenge is gonna help you be aligned.

Grounded and open every day for 30 days.

You're gonna get one simple action step, something small enough that your nervous

system and your human won't freak out.

But powerful enough, powerful enough as a compound to shift your relationship

with money from survival mode.

And two magnetic receiving.

We're talking about again, identity work, belief layering, nervous system

regulation, and getting into action.

'cause again, we gotta have the action part two, all the things

that actually make you a match for everything that you've desired.

This is where we reconnect you with the truth.

And I know I say this all the time, that you're not behind, you're not

broken, you're not bad with money.

You're simply out of alignment with what you're calling in and alignment.

Is a skill we can remember or rebuild because we've had this

at one point, we just lost it.

So if you're ready to strengthen your faith, ground your energy,

and open the door just a little bit wider for the delivery that's

already trying to make its way to you.

All of that wealth and magnetism that you are looking for, I'm

encouraging you to join us again.

I don't know how long this is gonna be available, open to the public,

outside of the unstoppable experience.

So come step into the version of yourself who can hold more.

Come play with the energetics, energetics of receiving.

And remember that abundance responds to alignment, not pressure.

A link is gonna be in the show notes for the 30 day money magnet challenge.

I can't wait to see you inside, and as we go through together, see what

opens up for you over the next month.

Remember, you've got this and I've got you.

That's it for now.

We'll see you next time.
