How a Broke 12-Year-Old Manifested a Whole New Reality

When I was 12 years old, it was the summer before 8th grade. I’m a summer baby, so the timing always felt like a reset—a soft moment of reflection before a new version of life began. I remember that time so vividly. I was excited—it was my last year of middle school, and I could feel a growing sense of independence taking root. I couldn’t name it back then, but something deep in my spirit knew that things were shifting. That summer felt different. I felt different. It was the beginning of me stepping into something new, even if I didn’t fully understand what that was yet.

That summer, I had my eyes locked on a very specific brand of school supplies. Not just the basic ones—but the folders, notebooks, and pens that made you feel like you had your whole life together. When it came time to go school supply shopping, I asked my Mother if I could get them. I remember being so specific—naming the exact brands like I had already claimed them in my spirit.

She told me no. We couldn’t afford them. And even though I knew she wasn’t saying it to be mean, something in me just wasn’t ready to accept that answer.

So I looked her in the face and said, “Don’t worry about it. You don’t have to buy my school supplies this year. I’ll figure it out.” I don’t remember exactly what excuse I gave her—maybe something like doing a paper route or helping neighbors with yard work—but I knew I had no real plan in place. That was just my cover.

What I actually did was hop on my bike and ride down to the city center near our local town. I started going door to door, walking into businesses and asking if they were hiring. Mind you— I was twelve. No résumé. No work permit. Just determination.

I remember stopping at places like Blockbuster, Old Country Buffet, a trading card store—anywhere that looked official. And then I found myself walking into McDonald’s.

I remember McDonald’s was hiring 14-year-olds at the time, so I faked my age—just by two years. I figured I had the maturity, so why not?

That’s where the door finally opened.

I filled out the application like I knew exactly what I was doing—and somehow, I got the job.

Looking back now, I have so much love for that version of me—so bold, so sure, and so tapped in without even knowing it.

I worked quietly for two weeks. Stayed focused. Didn’t tell a soul what I was really doing. Every dollar I made felt sacred because it wasn’t just about money—it was about proving something to myself. I could feel the independence, the power, the alignment even then. Eventually, they found out my real age and had to let me go. But by the time they did? I had already stacked enough money to walk into Target and buy every single thing I had written down on that school supply list— all name-brand, just like i envisioned it.

I remember placing each item in my cart like I was claiming a piece of myself.

Looking back now, that was the first thing I ever manifested.

It wasn’t just about school supplies. It was about proving to myself that I could change the outcome. That I could decide what my experience would be. That I had more power than I realized—even back then. My family still brings up that story to this day, and I smile every time they do because I now understand what was really happening. That was my first glimpse of how manifestation works. Desire. Belief. Action. Alignment. I didn’t have the vocabulary for it, but I was already living it.

Over the years, that same energy has helped me manifest far bigger things. A new reality. Creative freedom. Aligned income. Spiritual clarity. And even deeper than all of that? A level of self-love so strong, I feel full whether the room is empty or overflowing.

We are all manifesting, whether we realize it or not. From a perfectly timed hot cup of coffee that appears just when you need it, to long-term visions like building your dream career. One is instant. The other takes time. But both are manifestations. The difference is in the awareness. It’s in the remembering. We are all abundant beings, naturally aligned with our higher selves. But as we go through life—through pain, through conditioning, through survival mode—we start to build walls around that truth. We forget. We disconnect. We play small. And we settle.

But that story from twelve-year-old me reminds me that the spark never left. It was always there. And if it was there then, it's absolutely here now. I’ve come to believe that manifestation is less about getting something you want and more about returning to who you’ve always been. A creator. A transmitter. A receiver. A divine vessel.

When you let go of what’s no longer serving you...
When you allow yourself to forgive, release, and open back up...
When you stop outsourcing your power and come back to your own energy...
That’s when it all starts to click.

That’s when you return to your original form—love, light, and infinite potential.

This is what I teach in my course, Co-Create With the Universe. It's not about quick fixes or surface-level trends. It’s about learning how to shift your mindset, your energy, and your actions into full alignment with your truth. It’s about real stories, real tools, and real strategy—because I’ve lived it. I created this from the same place I created that moment back at twelve: belief, faith, and aligned action. And if that version of me could do it without any spiritual language or tools, I know for a fact that you can do it now—with intention.

So if you’re ready to shift, evolve, and remember who the hell you are, I invite you to co-create with me.
The universe is waiting to meet you where you are.
Let’s get to it.

With love,
Devinair
