#774 - Why Manifestation Isn’t Working (And What Actually Does) With Gary Temple Bodley

EVEN MORE about this episode!

Why isn’t manifestation working—and what are most people getting completely wrong?

In this episode, Julie Ryan talks with Gary Temple Bodley about how your beliefs shape reality, why manifestation fails, and what actually creates real change.

Gary shares how an unexpected spiritual awakening at age 50 led him to channel Joshua and completely transform his life—writing multiple books in rapid succession and stepping into a new purpose he never saw coming. Together, Julie and Gary explore how our beliefs shape our reality, why negative emotions are actually guidance from our inner self, and how shifting perspective can dissolve limitations and unlock a more aligned, expansive life.

This conversation goes deep—challenging conventional ideas about good and evil, the illusion of separation, and even the purpose behind humanity’s most difficult experiences. If you’ve ever wondered why manifestation sometimes doesn’t work, what you intended before you were born, or how to truly step into your role as a conscious creator, this episode will open your mind and shift how you see everything.
