If you’ve been feeling foggy, disoriented, or like your manifestations just aren’t landing—this one’s for you.
You’re not broken.
You’re remembering.

In this episode of Manifest Differently, we explore one of the most sacred and overlooked stages of manifestation: remembrance. The Matrix isn’t just a metaphor—it’s a system of energetic distortion that many of us are finally waking up from. And that awakening? It’s not failure—it’s frequency.

We dive into:

  • Why burnout, frustration, or “glitches” are actually signs your soul is breaking through the noise
  • How sovereignty isn’t about control—it’s about alignment
  • What it really means to reclaim your energy and remember the truth of who you are
  • The role of soul codes and light codes in guiding you back to your mission (without getting lost in the fluff)

✨ Plus: a quick energetic reset and affirmation to help anchor you into this new remembrance frequency.

Carissa Andrews:

Welcome to Manifest Differently, the podcast for neurodivergent thinkers and anyone looking to approach manifestation in a way that truly works for them. I'm your host, carissa Andrews, here to explore the science, energy and strategies that will help you create the life you love. Let's dive in and Manifest Differently. Well, hey there, beautiful soul. Welcome back to Manifest Differently, the podcast where we flip the script on traditional manifestation advice and explore what it really means to create your life from a place of soul alignment, energetic sovereignty and inner truth. If you're new here, welcome, and if you've been with me for a while, buckle up, because today's episode is going to activate something ancient inside of you, something you might not even know, you have words for yet, but you'll feel it. Today we're talking about something that's been coming through loudly in the collective lately A whisper at first, and then a low hum, and now it's a roar, and that message is you are not lost, you are remembering. You're remembering who you were before the matrix lied to you, before the conditioning, before the fear, before the systems that were never built for your soul to thrive in right. We neurodivergent manifestors, we're here to break the system, break the game, and if you've been feeling a little foggy or disoriented, like your manifestations are glitching or your energy is off. You're not broken, you're not behind and you're not doing it wrong. In fact, I believe we're all just sort of waking up and that can feel weird, right, like mourning a version of yourself that never really existed, while being reborn to someone you've always secretly known you were. That, my friend, is the remembrance, and it's one of the most sacred stages of manifestation that no one really talks about Because it's messy and it's tender and it's inconvenient for the ego and deeply inconvenient for the matrix. But it's where everything begins to unravel so that you can finally rebuild your reality from truth, from soul truth and alignment. Now, if you've been curious about the weird energetic shifts in the collective right now, like what it means when major figures die on symbolic days, like, say, a Pope on Easter Monday, or why repeating numbers suddenly feel like they're following you around, you're not imagining that either, so we're going to touch on that lightly today. But if you want the full breakdown of how you're actually going to use what I call soul codes to collapse the false grid and reprogram your energetic field, I'm going to go deeper into that inside of the deep end, which is my exclusive Substack podcast for my Substack subscribers, so you can find the link in the show notes or, if you go over to manifestdifferentlycom forward slash Substack, you'll find it there too.

Carissa Andrews:

But today's episode, this is the doorway, this is the invitation to remember your truth, reclaim your sovereignty and stop outsourcing your power to systems that were designed to keep you small. So take a deep breath with me. You are not here by accident. Okay, breathe that in Mm feels good. Right, let's begin, and we're going to start by taking a moment to just arrive, Not physically, but energetically. Let your awareness land right now, right here, in this moment. If it's safe to do so, close your eyes for just a few breaths and, if not, just let yourself soften even slightly as you turn inward. Take a slow, full inhalation through your nose, hold it at the top and exhale through your mouth like you're letting go of the static. You can sigh it out if you need to. Let's do that again Inhale, hold and exhale.

Carissa Andrews:

Now imagine somewhere deep within you, beyond the surface roles, the programming, the expectations. There's a version of you who never forgot, a version that's always known who you are, who remembers why you're here, who never lost sight of your power, even if parts of you did. This version doesn't hustle for approval. They don't chase worthiness and they don't shrink to fit into a system that was never designed for their soul. Feel into that part of yourself. Now. You might not see an image, but there's a feeling right, a resonance, a clarity. That knowing has always been within you, waiting for the noise to fade just enough so it can rise. So breathe into that truth, let it expand into your body and, if it feels aligned, speak this out loud or in your heart I remember who I am. I reclaim what is mine. I return to truth. Let that anchor in. You're not returning to someone new, you're returning to yourself, the self that's always been the one that has been calling you, nudging you forward in those little whispers, right?

Carissa Andrews:

Okay, so let's talk about this idea of remembrance, because for so many of us on this path, especially those of us who think a little differently and manifest a little differently, feel deeply and have always had a sense that there's more or that we need to come back to this sovereign love for one another, no matter the diversity. This isn't just a spiritual buzzword, remembrance. Remembrance is the moment the illusion starts to crack. It's not about learning something new. It's about returning to something ancient, something that your soul already knows. And so many of us are feeling this call, and it's been getting louder and louder.

Carissa Andrews:

But here's the thing most people don't realize Remembrance doesn't usually arrive like a lightning bolt. It often comes through the cracks in the burnout, in the frustration. Cracks in the burnout in the frustration, in the moments where what used to work just doesn't anymore right. It just doesn't anymore, and you can't figure out why. You wake up and you realize I've been manifesting all the right things, but something still feels off. Or maybe I've been doing what I'm supposed to do, but it feels like my soul is whispering that this isn't it. I have been there Like when I was pushing really hard to become a successful author or a successful author coach. It was like I'm close, I'm so close, but this isn't it not fully right, but this isn't failure. That's your remembrance breaking through when things like this happen. That's your soul gently reminding you that you came here to create something new or something different, not to succeed in a broken system which, let's be honest, we definitely live in right now.

Carissa Andrews:

So let's talk about that broken system for a second, because when I say matrix, I don't just mean it metaphorically. Second, because when I say matrix, I don't just mean it metaphorically. There are actual energetic structures on this planet, built over time through fear, trauma, control, scarcity, religious shame and manipulation, and all of that keeps us looping in patterns. It's a feedback loop, right, and most of us were born into it. We didn't consent to it consciously, but energetically we've been hooked into a false grid that tells us we need to earn our worth, to obey, to be safe and conform, to be loved. And here's the wild thing Many of us are waking up to that truth right now, not because we're broken, but because we're ready. We're ready to shift all of that BS because we know better, we know different, we know that there is a reality for us where that is not truth, and that's what sovereignty actually is right. It's not a dominance, it's not control. It's the subtle, powerful choice to say I get to choose what's true for me, I get to unplug from the programs that don't align and I get to reclaim my own field and my own wishes, my own desires.

Carissa Andrews:

Sovereignty is remembering that you are the source, that no one outside that, no outside system or person or validation can ever define your frequency. And that's power, my friend. That is true liberation, but first. Remembrance leads to sovereignty, and sovereignty opens the door to reclamation. It's been interesting to me because sovereignty has been the word that I keep seeing repeating over and over, whether it be on TikTok or myself as I'm meditating or just out and about. It's crazy. The word is literally coming to me over and over, and that's how I knew that this was going to have to be today's podcast episode.

Carissa Andrews:

Because sovereignty is where we start our reclamation, because once you remember, once you start to feel yourself again, you begin to notice where your power has been leaking. You start to see where your energy has been siphoned to fear, to obligation, to roles that you never agreed to, and you get to say no more right. You get to be done, not with anger though sometimes rage is a part of the reclamation process but through clarity, with authority. Reclamation is sacred. It's the moment that you decide that your energy belongs to you and that your desires are divine instructions, and that you don't need to negotiate with density in order to receive your abundance or the life of your dreams. Now here's where things get really interesting, though, because once you start remembering.

Carissa Andrews:

Once your field begins to clear, you'll start to notice little things showing up in your world, like I just said, right With sovereignty. Maybe it's number patterns for you, maybe it's symbols. Maybe you, maybe it's symbols, maybe you're feeling like certain sequences speak to you, even though they don't make logical sense. Now, these things that are repeating, these things that are coming into your reticular activating system, these are light codes, soul codes. They're not random, they're frequency transmissions designed to activate parts of your consciousness that have been dormant. And they're starting to show up now because you're ready to receive them. I'm not going to go into the actual codes today because they're not really meant to be consumed casually or commodified, but in the deep end, I'll walk you through the exact codes I've been working with lately, why they matter, what they mean and how you can start using them to collapse, distortion, reclaim your power and anchor into the area frequency that we talked about last week. Because, yes, this is part of area.

Carissa Andrews:

This remembrance, this reclamation, this sovereign frequency is a key to abundance, but not the old version of abundance, not the grind, not the more for the sake of more. I'm talking about the overflow rooted in truth. I'm talking about the overflow rooted in truth. Feel that for a second, the overflow rooted in truth, and that's what we're calling back in now. So if you take nothing else from this episode, let it be this You're not broken, you're not lost or behind.

Carissa Andrews:

You are remembering. You're remembering that your energy is sacred, that your power has never existed outside of you, that the system that made you feel small was designed that way on purpose. But your soul, your frequency, your truth that was never part of the system. It's always been bigger, wiser, softer, uncontainainable. And now you're waking up not just to new ideas, but to ancient truth.

Carissa Andrews:

You don't need to fix yourself, you don't need to reclaim yourself like in a masterful way, right, every time you choose presence over performance or intuition over obligation, alignment over approval, you're practicing sovereignty. You're collapsing the grid. You're remembering who the fuck you are, and I know this journey can feel lonely sometimes, like no one sees that you're unraveling or even why it matters. But you're not alone. You're not the only one unplugging. You're not the only one choosing differently. You're part of a soul wave, a collective uprising of beings who are here to remember, reclaim and radiate the truth.

Carissa Andrews:

This isn't a phase. This is a homecoming. So if you're feeling activated right now, like something deep inside, you just clicked into place. If there's a part of you whispering, this is what I've been waiting for, trust that Okay, because this episode, like I said, this is just the doorway Inside the deep end.

Carissa Andrews:

I'm going to share the exact codes I've been working with, what they mean, why they've been showing up now which is kind of fun and interesting and how to actually use them to collapse that distortion and reclaim your field and start working with a frequency that I'm calling area. Area is not just about abundance. It's about that truth fueled overflow. It's the new wave, the new economy and it's the frequency of being fully resourced. Because you're fully you Now I'll walk you through the codes step by step, from the collapse loop disruptors to the sovereignty reactivators.

Carissa Andrews:

Now, this isn't fluffy angel number content here. This is divine tech, coded in frequency, designed for your nervous system and waiting to be remembered. So if you want the how behind the what, if you're ready to reclaim the instructions your soul left for you, come join me inside Manifest Differently, the deep end. On Substack, you can find the link again in the show notes. Or if you go over to manifestdifferentlycom, forward, slash Substack, you'll find everything there, and if you felt this episode in your bones, share it, send it to someone else who's waking up, or drop into the comments and tell me what cracked you open. I want to hear your remembrance too, because this, this is how we collapse the grid and reclaim our sovereignty together. Our sovereignty together. Until next time, keep choosing truth, keep listening inward and keep manifesting differently.
