Everyone can manifest. We're all doing it-every second of every day-without even realising it. For years, journalist & podcaster Jordanna would worry about things & they would come true. A broken foot, a cancelled flight, a tragic love story... the list went on. She soon realised that she wasn't just predicting the future, she was manifesting it. Until one day she changed the game. If she could manifest mishaps & disasters, why not the things she actually wanted? In this warm & witty book, Jordanna shares her personal experiences & struggles along with her fool proof equation for manifesting whatever you desire, from your dream job to a lasting relationship. Whether you're a matter-of-fact skeptic or a somewhat hippie yoga-lover, Make It Happen will empower you to take ownership of your life & create anything you want.
