  • Conversation - The One Hundred Thousand Dollar Gift
    Jun 2 2025

    In this intimate episode, Eleanor sits down with a former client and dear friend as they courageously share their story of working together.

    They explore a moment that changed both of their lives: a profound act of generosity where this client gifts Eleanor $100,000, a gift rooted in trust, soul connection, and something far beyond logic. This episode sets up how this happened and what the details of the manifestations before, during and after this miraculous gift.

    What does it mean to give and receive both a physical and spiritual level?
    How do we navigate human messiness when the Divine shows up in unexpected ways?
    And what happens when we surrender our ego and "plans" to the mystery of something greater?

    We refer to the book "Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill, prayer, manifestation practices, listening, and learning to both give and receive. The magic seemed to be all of these things and more, seen and unseen coming together, at the perfect time.

    Come listen with an open heart. You might just leave with a new sense of what’s possible for you, humanity and beyond!
