In Gaslit Myself Into a New Life, Manda Lea strips down the pretty version of manifestation and gets dirty about what it really takes to reinvent yourself. She talks about lying to her fear until it shut up, flirting with risk like it owed her money, and turning breakdowns into brand strategy. This isn’t affirmations and matcha; it’s prayer, profanity, and pure nerve. She unpacks the art of self-delusion, the thrill of quitting right before it works, and the quiet, half-holy chaos of trusting God while you’re still shaking. It’s the gospel of glow-ups, the theology of “f*ck it,” and a confession from a woman who built her own soft life with hard decisions. It’s unfiltered. It’s messy. It’s money-coded. And it’s exactly the kind of delusion that makes destiny flinch first. Connect with Manda Lea:IG @forbesmanda_ | X @MandalayyBayy__ | info@balancedestiny.com
