Exploring Manifestation, Entrepreneurship and Card Decks with Neel Van Lierop
19 Aug 2025 · 42 min
Podcast episode (I Heart My Life, ep. 241) hosted by Emily Williams interviewing Neel (Nail) Van Lierop, a spiritual entrepreneur and intuitive coach based in Amsterdam and Los Angeles. Neel describes her transition from a high-pressure creative career to a healing, intuition-led life after a prolonged bout of insomnia and panic attacks. She explains key practices that helped: sitting with emotions, asking “what do I need in this moment,” prioritizing inner peace, winding down before sleep, and delegating business tasks to preserve creative space. Neel recounts creating the Inner Compass Cards (originating from a personal ritual and a Kickstarter), declining large book deals, securing retail placement (Goop, Anthropologie), and building a small team and retreat center. The episode includes a live card pull; the drawn card’s message centers on manifestation, inner knowledge, trust, and “showing yourself.” Website: InnerCompassCards.com.

This is episode 241 exploring manifestation, entrepreneurship and card decks with Nail Van Lup. So Nail is a spiritual entrepreneur and intuitive coach based in Amsterdam and Los Angeles. A former fashion stylist and creative agency owner, Nail had an outwardly successful career telling visual stories. However, at one point in her life she was feeling distracted and sensing something was missing. During that time, Nail moved through many fears and awakened to a life filled with inner peace and gratitude. Her newly found self knowledge became the foundation for 49 life themes within a card deck that she created called the Inner Compass Cards. Now she's big time. People like Gwyneth Paltrow, Pink, Debra Messing, Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Tisdale and Jenny Garth are all using her products and I must admit I'm a huge fan. As well. As a vessel of universal wisdom, Nail guides others towards regaining their personal power. Working with Nail offers an experience to explore and create deeper meaning in one's life. Through identifying blocks in her clients, Nail brings people closer to their innate potential and guides them to discover their own unique strengths. When I first discovered this card deck I became obsessed. It was actually a gift from one of my friends and now it's something I use daily to support me in moving through challenges and honestly, just getting inspiration for my daily life. So I was definitely a super fan when we got to have Nail on the show here and it was really cool because I actually pulled a card for the I Heart My Life community before interviewing her and then she suggested we do the Same thing live during this episode. And we actually pulled the exact same card. So you're going to hear what that card actually was. What is the message we have for you today? And you're going to feel so inspired to move through anything that's making you feel stuck or making you feel uninspired and just start to trust that you are meant for more. And you are being guided to the other side, where everything that you want, everything you want to create, everything you want to be, everything you want to have, exists specifically for you. All right, let's dive in. Welcome to the I Heart My Life show. Nail. I'm so excited to have you here and learn more about your story. And as you know, I'm a huge fan, so it's an honor to have you on the show.
Thank you for having me and for being a daily user of Inner Contest cards.
Oh, they're the best. So we share them with all of our clients and yeah, we'll talk more about that in just a bit. But you are just such a gift, especially to me and my community. So I'm excited to have you here. So why don't you take us back? Obviously, there's a whole story before the cards. Let us know a little bit more to give us some insight into your background and how you started to do this work and just your history.
Yeah. The fun thing is I had no ambition in this industry of self development. I was very passionate about it, though. I think it was 2007 when I went to see a therapist and she gave me the books of ecritolic. She noticed that I was craving for more, to know more. I was into philosophy and Taoism and all these things, but not yet in spirituality. How long does that go? Like 13 or maybe 14 years. So I became very, very passionate about it. Like, I would stay in a bar and I would talk about pain, bodies and emotions and distancing and identifying with them and living in the now. But after a few years being very passionate about it, I was also aware of the fact that I was more carrying it as knowledge. And then I was not living it. It was not integrated. So I really could give lectures about it, which I did in bars and at parties, but no one was interested in it. It was not like a big trend as it is now, so. But I, you know, I traveled the world to see masters and teachers and other cultures which live more intuitively or spiritually by nature. And at a certain point I was still, you know, in the old life, like partying a lot. I was with A boyfriend and, well, we had future plans, you know, but there was also. It was more about filling a void than it was like, really. It was love, obviously, but, you know, it's not the kind of love that's out there for me, I think. You know, I think a lot of people would recognize it. I was part of the rat race. I was ambitious in my field. I was helping creative people and creative companies to match each other, like a headhunter. So I was filling job openings with creatives until I became very ill. And at that point, my boyfriend also broke up with me. And the sickness that I was suffering was insomnia, you know, so I didn't sleep for like months. Like, I was like very close and maybe a little bit psychotic. I had a lot of panic attacks, a few a day. So that was like the first steps of going into psychosis. And so it was like, it was a big wake up call. And it took me a few years to recover. Like, the nervous system, it was so down that it took me a few years to build it up again. And in those years, it was where the change came, you know, because eventually, well, in hindsight, I think that such things happened to us as a wake up call. I'm very grateful for mine. I learned a lot from changing directions from the normal medical system into more alternative. That's where they were. Well, where I was able to heal my body.
So before we go into how you were able to cure yourself and all of your transformation, I'm curious to know, you know, for a lot of our listeners who are experiencing what you experienced, what was it that got you to the place of having issues with sleep and having all of these issues with your nervous system? Was it your work schedule or what was it?
Honestly, I think it's our own mind. So it's what we believe that is important. So it's about priority. If you think your work is higher priority as your children or your body. Yeah. Well, you can already guess what would happen. Yeah. I really learned to ask myself what I need in the moment. Like the big, the biggest switch I made in 2015 when one of my. My therapists said to me, like, ask yourself, like a hundred times a day, what do I need in this very moment? So that really helped me to live more in the now. Because I was always thinking, you wake up and you think of the first coffee you think of, I need to go to yoga, I need to sit on my cushion to do the meditation. I need to, you know, is doing the ice cold, the cold water dips.
Now.
At that time. And so there was a lot of must do's in the, you know, every. Every hour there were things that I had to do. From whom only one person. So there's only one person who's able to change this. And yeah, I decided to have peace, peacefulness and health as a number one priority. So your whole. Your days look very different. And I decided not to have the day controlling my life or all the to do's. But I'm in charge. I could have written the four hour workweek, I think because that's how I live now. I've never read it. People are always intrigued. I really decided not to have stress anymore for no reason, not even packing suitcases or while traveling and have a stopover or whatever. I really. Inner peace is my top priority. It has everything to do with how you handle with things because there's always stressful moments presented to you. But so it starts within your mind, what you do with it, how you react.
Yeah. So I want to dig a little bit deeper with this because this is so. It's amazing and it's so poignant for me. I'm in the midst of doing a lot with my companies. We're also building a home. We're moving in in two weeks. So there's a lot happening and Christmas. Right. All at the same time.
And you're still here.
I'm here, yeah. And you know, I know that I have a lot of work to do in terms of releasing stress. And I've actually been paying a lot of attention to my own nervous system and having conversations on the I hurt my life show about our addiction to stress and how that manifests. And so I know, like you said, it took some time for you to really heal yourself. What were some of the first steps that you took that started to provide relief for you?
I think it would start with the awareness that something is. That you can change something. I think a lot of people like if we. I think it's about running, you know, running away from what's going on inside and what you really are supposed to deal with. So we flee or run away. How do. What's the best way to. So that's the thing about behind a lot of addictions, you know, workaholics. But also I healed myself from emotions, emotional eating the same way. So for example, I would run away from a lonely moment or whatever. When I was younger, I would socialize too much. So I would take no alone time. After I learned to be alone, I was still eating the loneliness or other emotions away, you know. So what I think is really important is to sit down with your emotions. In order to heal things that were suppressed, you need to face them. And that's the hardest part. I would say for me, that was not the hardest way. Somehow I've always known that I wanted to live and not to survive, you know, and not to not work in order to live. But from as of a very young age, you know, after college and after university, all my friends would go for their careers. And I was always thinking, like, why would you be. Would you want to be a number in one of those big companies? I was like, that's. That cannot be fulfilling life. If you work, then you live someone else's lives, like CEO or the stakeholders from the companies. So that's how I became an entrepreneur at the first. In the first place. But then still, you can take it too seriously, the thing you do and identify too much with it or whatever. I learned to sit with things when I was healing the emotional eating part, like every time someone would want to fly into either work or eating or I don't know what else. Dating apps.
Yeah. Tv.
Yeah, tv. Netflix. Yeah. The phone is the biggest things right now, I think. So I trained myself to really sit with emotions, like to feel them through. And that was. That's as far as I know, the only way to heal things that were suppressed before. And then it can transform into light. It wants to be seen and felt. I think that's a really important. Well, I'm helping my ex boyfriend now with his workaholic. You know, he is addicted to stress.
Yeah.
So it's really hard for him, but he will have to face at one point his emotions that he's running away from.
Right. Or else it, you know, manifests in the body in a way that we don't desire it to. So what do you think was the reason for your insomnia? Did you figure out what was suppressed or what was actually going on?
Yeah, the main thing behind it, you know, all those books that. That were published all around the world by different writers who write about somatic diseases, you know, so every physical disease is linked to an emotional conflict. I noticed that. That's true. What's in all those. In all those books, it was really life inviting me to live more intuitively. So I used to be a control very much depending on my controlling mind. So life really invited me to live more intuitively and. Yeah. And I still need to. It's been in my life since I was 2. And then it really really hit me when I was around 33, I think, and still it's my weak spot. I really cannot use creams at night. I have to put my phone away around seven. I try to avoid things that arouse me. So I really need to unwind. I. I need a couple of hours to unwind and, you know, to have. Yeah, I have an active brain that's. That's also visible in my human design. I am sure a lot of people have heard about human design. You can see, I think it's one of those arrows on the. Around the head. That's. I don't know which one, but yeah, look it up. It points out if you have an active brain or not. You know, you have those people who can be really dreamy and stare out of the window.
Yeah, that's not me either. I'll need to look at my chart and see if I have that little arrow. Yeah. So thank you for sharing that. So one of the main things was just feeling your emotions, letting them actually come out versus suppressing them, Focusing on winding down before you were going to sleep. And you mentioned working with different therapists and asking yourself every single day, what do I need in this moment? And I'm curious to know how you. Well, let me back up. What was your work life like during that time? Were you actually running a business or what were you doing?
Yeah, I was running a hat hunting company based in Amsterdam. Yeah. And I had a very social life. I, you know, I needed to go to yoga three times a week. I did kickboxing. You know, that kind of. Now in hindsight, I call it a rat race because now I live more intuitively and I really feel into my body. I actually, I barely go to yoga only when I feel I need it because, well, there's no stress in my body now. So I'm not like, I'm not longing for yoga. I'm longing for walks with the dog. And sometimes, you know, if I wake up and I feel like running, I go running, but it's not like I must run.
Okay, so it sounds like there was less of like a schedule and a list of the things you had to do. It was more just tuning in to what your body needed in the moment.
Exactly. So it was really weird in the beginning to make the switch because I was so used to go to the gym in the morning, you know, and to see people and have like a ton, ton of appointments every day. Now I only have three appointments a day a week. So I went from like six a day to three A week, which really, really helped me because now I'm looking forward. I was really, really honestly looking forward to meet you today on the. And do this interview.
And when you like appointments, do you mean social appointments or do you mean overall? Like, you only have three things on the calendar?
Like, yeah, mostly it's the three things on the. On the calendar, I would say. And all the other rest. Like, people around me know this now and most people adopted it as well. We see each other spontaneously.
Okay, People.
People know that they can call me. And I. And I always try to call people if I think so I think this is, is what we are evolving towards as well. Our DNA is upgrading and we become more telepathic. It's all those things that we have, you know, we have those skills. But it's like, it's just. We think that the controlling mind is our main tool to navigate through this life, you know. But I think there is much, much more and we're slowly discovering it. And so when I had it today, actually, I had one appointment in another city, like one and a hours from here. And I have a friend living there. So I was in the car and I texted him, like, hey, I'm close to you today. You have time for a coffee? So we had a coffee, but it was like within an hour.
Right. Spontaneous. So. Okay, so this is so exciting for me to talk to you because I'm so intrigued.
I love, like my, like this way of living.
Yeah. See that?
Life is full of serendipity. Everything is full of magic, miracles. It's bizarre. So that's why I kind of became addicted to this lifestyle, you know, I'm not sure if that's healthy, but.
No, no, I can see why.
How.
So my mind is going to. How do you run a business with that way of life? Like, for me, you know, I feel like I have all these team members, I have all these clients, all these things. And so how do you maintain almost like motivation or do the things you want to do and move through life in that way?
Yeah. I have to admit, I'm a manifester in human design. That means that I'm not an energy type. I don't have that sacral kind of motor running. So because of that, I decided after one year doing everything in the company. So I published the first deck. And the very first year I did everything myself, you know, so I was the customer service, I did the sales, I tried to do marketing. I still do the Instagram, but then after a year there would be a salary for one person. And I decided to hire a PA in order to get myself sane again. Because, you know, it's just a league of energy. If I. If I would do all these things together myself, I know by now I'm a visionary. I'm a creative, you know, so I really need space in order to be able to develop new products or trainings or. Or writing. Really need space. So I decided to delegate everything.
Beautiful. Okay. That's so inspiring to me. I'm a manifesting generator. So it's a little bit different, but you have more.
Like, you are talented. That's, you know, so we are all different. We would like to point that out. You are. You go better with routines and you really like to enjoy, like keeping eight balls in the air.
Yeah. Yeah. Amazing. So I want to know more about the decks. And, you know, we covered this a little bit in the beginning. I said I'm a huge fan. And we pull a card, my husband and I, pretty much daily, just for inspiration, and it's always spot on. And then we've been bringing these cards to our retreats with our clients and pulling cards for them and doing them, you know, on some of our coaching calls. And everyone just finds so much like peace and just joy from pulling the cards. So I'm curious to know, how did that come to be? How did you develop this and move forward with a project like this?
As we were talking about, I was recovering from the insomnia. I was really sick. Like, my body was so weak, I couldn't go to yoga. I couldn't go for a walk. So the only routine and ritual that I had was pulling a card my mom gave them with Christmas. And the moment she gave them, I was like, no way. You know, those airy fairy woohoo cards. And so it was always hiding them. And at a certain point when I really needed a new ritual, I tried them out. And after three weeks, I was so amazed. Like, how can those. How would those cards know where I'm at in life? You know, I was so surprised. So I started analyzing because I. I do have this strong mind, you know, I don't have it for nothing. Yeah. I started analyzing how it, how it works that if you pull a card blindly. Well, I think that's the trick, you know, like there is more than our controlling mind. So our. I like to call it intuition or subconscious. Some people call it pulling the card from the heart instead of from the head. But by doing so full and blankly, there is this other intelligence which knows better in the moment what you Need. And I've done so many, like thousands of readings by now, and every time they amaze me. So it's like, it's really beyond what I can think of and analyze. And so I started gifting them away, you know, because it was really. I was so much into all this work and there was like a simple tool, like a box with cards that. That really helped me integrating those things for the very first time. I saw myself, you know, changing over a few weeks.
And you were gifting other people's cards.
Before you had your own cards from Doreen Virtue. I was always looking for, oh, maybe that one suits that friend. No one was really into it back then. Like, Holland became very. Was later in the game than the U.S. you know, in the U.S. it's way more mainstream now, all the spiritual tools than in. Than in Europe. People really thought that I. That I had lost it as well, because those cards were talking about communicating with angels. And that was weird back then. At a certain point, I was already using the Madison Ayahuasca sometimes. That was back then, one of the ways that I was working on myself. I started to write, like, really short messages. But it was all like, very. A team, like, Vulnerability. Renee Brown writes a whole book about it. You know, I'm only able, like, my gift is to bring it back to the asset in like half a page. So I had a lot of those, that kind of themes, like letting go, vulnerability, I don't know, serendipity, all this. And I brought it back to like, a few sentences. So after a while, at a certain point, as an epiphany, it all came together. I had already those texts in my notebook. I was shuffling cards every day. And then at a certain point, it hit me and I saw. I. It came with a vision. Like, I knew it was going to be earthy tones and. And the shape of the box, like. Yeah, like a notebook and. Yeah. So from that moment on, I knew it. I knew it was going to be successful. It's really weird, but it was like, really a download. Everything flowed from that moment on, like, very effortlessly. The people that helped me with the designs or whatever, the editors, the translators, it would come at the very. At a perfect moment. They came into my life. You know, I was asking. I was also learning a lot at that time. I was really feeling into all those topics, like manifesting and like, you pulled the manifest card today. I was still like, trying to really get the theme, what it was about. And the whole project was like, playing around with all those themes and Practicing it and wow.
And is it with a deck? Is it like getting a book deal? Did you have to go and find a publisher? You said you manifested the artwork and all of that, but how did that unfold?
I thought I wanted to. I'm a manifesto, so I wanted to do it by myself and I put it on Kickstarter. That became kind of like a little bit successful enough to get the first round printed and. And there were like chronicle books and HarperCollins saw it and they connected, contacted me but I was not ready for it and they wanted to make it like very cheap, like a gift kind of price had had so many downloads about it, like about the prize, for example. I really like people to do effort for it so that there is more commitment. So then it has a bigger chance to be life changing, you know. So I denied the deals. Yeah, yeah.
Oh, I love that so much. Yeah. We talk a lot about pricing within the online space and with my clients, you know, money comes up a lot and it's such an important conversation. And I love how you said, you know, you tuned into it and also realized that if people paid more, they'd be more committed. And I think so often we just worry about are they actually going to buy it and that becomes the focus.
Yeah. And I'm Dutch, which is felt very Calvinistic. So. Yeah. Later on I ended up living in Los Angeles for a few years and then I really learned to bring bigger. I have really weird advices always. It's more. My journey is more about learning how to be more intuitive than I didn't. I. You know, back in the days I was working for startups as well, so I knew a lot of all the startup games and all those, you know, the lead, the lingo that comes with it. We do none of that in my company. We just, we tune into things and we have affirmations if something goes wrong, you know, we have how does it get any better than this affirmation? And if we have victory, we have affirmations to draw more victories towards us. And I teach my, the people who work for me about energy work and the decisions that I make are always from a meditative state as well. Yeah. So the reason why I was able to not accept the book deals from the big, you know, it's big, you know, I'm from Europe, very small country. And then those companies from San Francisco reach out to you, but. And now. And back then I really had a very clear voice in my head like, no, you can show the world it's your Job to show the world that it is that you don't need those big companies which, you know, and it's such. I also had a vision how different those vibrations were. You know, I had just made like something that at that time still felt like one of my babies, you know, was sacred creation. And because the words came through me, you know, I really feel that I was just a vessel. And so it felt so sacred. Like, how can I gift that or, you know, sell that to a company which at the end of the year only talks about numbers? It was just not possible in my head. Maybe if the question would come now, I would tune into it again and my learnings have been made, maybe, or some of them. So maybe the answer is different. I don't know.
Yeah. And so I'm curious to know, how did you manage to get into stores like Goop? That's where I initially found you. I was at a hotel, Santa Barbara, California, and the cards were sold in that Goop store. So how did that happen? Because you have such a celebrity following.
Yeah, we do. I've been there too. I did readings there a whole couple of days.
Oh, really? Amazing.
Yeah, they gifted. So they gifted a personal reading with me to all of their regular customers. Wow. Yeah, I love that.
Yeah, it's my favorite.
I set a few goals, maybe one or two a year. So we work on that. But it's also, you know, the goals come to me and I feel that it's really possible. I felt that Goop was on the same vibration as the cards. Yeah, I was, I was living in la and I just knew at a certain time I will meet the right people, you know, because they have an office in Santa Monica. I was living in Vatican, so I thought it cannot be that hard. And at a certain point within a year, it happens. So I met this girl through friends and she didn't know anyone at Goop, but I hired her as my PR agent and she did a couple of phone calls over a few weeks and then we were talking about them to them. And then within a few months it happened. Yeah. And that was. I knew that was a smart goal to set. I imagined more buyers in the US would look at them. So right after we were live at goop, Anthropology called us. That's, you know, it's huge. That's how I have a four hour work week. I don't work hard, I work smart.
Wow. Wow. I love that. Thank you for sharing that with me. I don't work hard, I work smart. So great. And I love how you said you set one to two goals because how often I'm going to raise my hand for this one are we setting so many goals and then it becomes overwhelming. We're not actually working smart anymore. We're not being effective. We're just doing way too many things. So I really appreciate that about you.
Exactly. Yeah. It really works for me. But it has to do with my priority of inner right.
So when you think about, you know, we're nearing the end of the year and you think about 2022, what I mean, maybe you can share what are your goals for 2022 or how do you look at that? Do you just tune in and you, you feel into what you can visualize for the next year ahead?
I think so. I think I will sit down at the. I don't know when the next. Well, there's. I think there's a full moon coming up. So the next new moon, I will sit down and do my intentions for the six months to come. Because, you know, the new moon is linked to the full moon and in six months. So that's how, that's how I work. I feel that, you know, you plant the seed and it grows in like six months or maybe. Maybe. So I think the next new moon, I will do it for a year. I will tune into. Yeah. What I need most and then what the company needs. There is also things not working out, to be honest. Like for example, I have not developed but designed like an amazing self reflection app. One of the features would be pulling cards, but much, much more. But it's been in my hat for like three years. But, you know, because I'm picking my battles. It's not there yet. It's not. It hasn't even started to be developed by. But that's also because there's a lot of money involved and all the things that I do now, the projects that I do take on, like for example, we're now in. I am here now in my, in my new retreat center. So I've been developing that for the last year. So we have a place where we can do workshops now, but it's also. You can also rent it for a weekend end and it's almost done like within like in two months.
Oh, incredible. Yeah, tell us about those.
We are here to live this life, you know, and I really like decorating, so I took on that. Yeah, there's only one person who can live your life the way you want or. Yeah. So I decided to spend more time with beloved and with things that I really enjoy, which Is nature and also decorating places like this. So. Yeah.
And so you mentioned your four hour work week. So how do you spend your time in terms of your company work? What are you filling those four hours with? Like what is essential for you to do?
Steering the team? I think so. Sharing my vision for the month with them and talking to journalists or. Or doing interviews like now. Yeah.
Amazing. So you have the retreat center, you have the car decks, you have the app. And you mentioned you do energy work as well. Is there anything else that you do within the company?
I don't do one on ones because I don't feel like that's. There's so many people offering one on one consults. I'm here to make. I feel that I'm here to make tools that go, you know, that can reach everyone's. Everybody's homes. Sometimes I do, twice a year I do workshops and people can also book me for, what do you call it, events like walks and. Yeah, amazing. And I used to do workshops like all over the world in yoga studios, but that part got canceled, obviously the traveling and. Well, in Europe, most yoga studios are still in lockdown or hot.
And what would you say, somebody asked me this the other day. What would you say in all of your years of personal development if you could pinpoint one thing that's made the biggest difference for you? What is that?
Trying to discover what the path of the soul is instead of. So you're really the controlling mind. I really try to keep it on the passenger seat or my heart or whatever you call it. Every day I invite that on the driver's seat. Surrender would be the word surrender, like surrender to life instead of trying to steer it. Me, the biggest thing that otherwise I had never found this job. Well, I created it, but that's how people see it. But how I experienced it was really that it found me.
Yeah. One of the questions I often ask our guests is what is one way to create a life that's better than your dreams? Because I believe that our mind can only take us so far. And when we're open, you know, things become better than we expected or there's unexpected things that happen that are actually what we're meant to be doing.
Yes, exactly. So my answer would be surrendering, but also opening up to much, much more than you can even imagine.
Yeah. Beautiful. So I want to make sure that we're able to pull a card for the audience. Are you able to do that for us?
Of course. I love it.
So which deck do you have?
Yeah, I have all three here. But intuitively, I feel that we should use the original for now. I don't know why. So the first deck, the original, it's the black and white box. I developed that really to support people finding direction in life. And then the second one, I always use it when there's other people involved. So it's called the love deck. But it's for all the relationships that we have. And then there is the kids cards and the cards for the children. It's also really interesting for conscious parenting, I think. Yeah, the children like it, you know, but I think parents even learn more because children are connected to that pureness that we are within.
And so you're shuffling. Is there a right way to pull the cards?
I don't know. I developed them in a way, and I wrote the manual in a way that people. If I buy a new deck of cards, I never read the manual, so. So I developed mine in a compass cards as well, in a way that wouldn't mind that people would not use the manual. And so there is people who always draw cards with the left hand. I'm. You know, I don't know. I. I think I use my right, to be honest. That's all. It's all control, you know, you can just surrender. To what? Yep.
Surrender.
Yeah. What I like to do is always spread them in front of me, and then I go over, and then I feel which one is. So here we go. Shall I ask the listeners to close their eyes for a little bit? Maybe do a little inhale so that we are really conscious of being in the moment? And then you can ask yourself a question that starts with what do I need? In order to. You finish the question, and I'm gonna pull you a message. Guidance for the answer. This is insane. Manifest.
Oh, my gosh. That's the same card I got.
Wow, this is bizarre. It was, like, just here.
Oh, my gosh. Crazy. Yeah, Literally. Let's hold mine up, too, because I want to take a little screen here. God, so crazy.
Wow. So it was just before you pulled it?
Yep, about 50 minutes ago. I pulled the same card. That's always right. It's always amazing. Are you going to read it to us?
Yeah. For the people who still were skeptical about using cards, you know, there's always surprises like this. But here's also the guidance for your question. This card urges you to show yourself. Each of us has a personal code, a unique light that you shine on earth. You are getting closer to your blueprint. You realize your true self. You can manifest Everything you think or dream. Inner knowledge and trust lie at the core of manifestation. It is essential to know who you are and what you want before plunging into the magical adventure called manifestation. It is not built upon your willpower or resistance. Instead, it arises from the realization that what you do is right. Be careful. When you manifest from a desire based on fear or scarcity, you will only attract more. When something is right for you, you will be guided by the trust that you deserve this. You will feel what it is. You will feel what is right for you and fearlessly claim your place. Let your light shine. The world is waiting for you. Step out of the shadows and show yourself. It also came out because it was the energy of our conversation. Yes, exactly. The things that we were talking about. Yes.
So beautiful. And, I mean, I just want everyone to go and buy this deck. It's so powerful, as you can obviously see, and it's so beautiful. The pictures, illustrations, and your words are just. You're so talented. And thank you for creating it.
