I really loved the first book as it changed my entire perception about a word and concept I thought was “woo woo” for years. For those who are open to the power of manifesting, Roxie's new book Manifest: Dive Deeper will support you in taking your self-development practice further.

You may find it easy to memorize facts but with this approach, when faced with a new problem or a different situation, you won’t be able to apply your knowledge. You don’t have the first principles of thinking needed to solve complex problems. Interview questions related to Deep Dive: Despite all that, I love her ways of talking about emotion and comparison in step six. As we always live in a culture of comparison, envy/jealousy must be something that takes a toll on us. Dealing with hostile emotions is a process for us to learn to validate those feelings so that they won't negatively impact our manifesting process. Although step six just sounds verbal with no practical practice, it does pique my attention with her inspiring words. But what are the good parts of being a Deep Diver? I think there are three primary reasons why this leadership principle is valuable:Rather than wishing material items into our lives, manifesting, Nafousi says, is about re-training our brains, reflecting and refocussing. For her, this looks like regular journaling, and visualisations, but also “the way I show up, how I overcome tests, the boundaries I set in my life with other people.”

With that all being said, if you are a beginner to self development you’ll love this book as it does make it very simple and broken down for you, however if you’re someone who understands gratitude, how to connect your behaviours to your thoughts / actions and vice versa, has awareness over the things that drive your choices etc etc this book may not fully resonate. Where Nafousi's first book was an entry into the manifesting practice, Dive Deeper focuses more closely on helping the reader with their self-belief. It follows the same seven-steps as Manifest, but approaches them from a more introspective angle, and provides more exercises, advice, and personal anecdotes from Nafousi's own manifesting journey.' - COSMOPOLITAN

Reading a book aloud to students is powerful in itself. But, diving into a book adds layers and depth to the experience. On the surface, this seems like a pretty clear direction. Leaders should be deep in the details and not just manage by zoom. She adds: "I can only do what I can to spread my message and the people that want to hear it and are open to it will benefit from it and the people that don't won't. It's as simple as that. I'm not here to try and convince anyone of anything," Roxie adds.

I did love parts of this book, don’t get me wrong and I love love love the author and she was someone I wrote down in my “5 people who inspire you” list, I just wish this book dove deeper into the science behind manifestation whilst weaving in the 7 steps. This is the time we should be clear with our visualization. More details, the better! That should consider your first step. The author presents seven unique stages with some critical questions in each stage for you to answer. Skill Focus: Phonological Awareness (Beginning and Ending Sounds), Letter Identification, Identifying and Understanding Onomatopoeia, Vocabulary Development, Oral Communication, CreativityI think manifesting has a bad rep because of Tik Tok. It’s become such a trend and people really don’t understand it. I sometimes feel I’m the PR for manifesting trying to do damage control! People on Tik Tok say they manifested their Chanel bag. Well, that’s not really manifesting is about. Manifesting is a practice of self-belief that everybody can benefit from. It’s about bringing things into your life that will give you fulfilment and contentment and joy and peace. It’s also a misconception that it’s just about visualising. It’s about hard work”. For the uninitiated (sorry, do you not live on TikTok?) manifesting is a practice that encourages people to harness positive thinking to achieve their wildest dreams. Essentially, manifesting says that if you think positively, you will operate on a high vibrational plane, which will encourage positive things to come your way. Yes, it sounds totally woo-woo, but boiled down, using mantras, channelling positive thinking, and developing gratitude are also methods that form part of some more traditional therapies. I feel like I am having to do damage control for manifesting. There are loads of misconceptions and I think it does give it a bad name," Roxie explains. But, the coach says you'd be forgiven for being skeptical about manifesting: "I understand though. If I hadn't delved into it, if I was on the outside and watching some of the videos on TikTok then I would probably be a sceptic, too. To Dive Deep is to go beyond the surface to understand the problem at hand in detail. A leader who D ives Deep will not be satisfied with just knowing what they know. They will dig deeper into understanding the problem from every angle, from every perspective. People who Dive Deep love learning and have a passion for knowledge. To Dive Deep, you must be curious and willing to ask questions. You also need to be able to listen and learn from all kinds of people, whether they’re your peers or managers, employees or customers.
