From Stuck to Aligned: Releasing the Hidden Beliefs That Cancel Out Your Prayers

And these lies?

They don’t come out in full sentences.

They’re actually subconscious prayers.

Make it stand out

I have to tell you about this realization that hit me the other day!

You know how we’re always talking about our big desires- the dream house, the soulmate, the career that lights us up, the freedom to just live fully?

Well, I’ve been sitting with mine, and here’s what I realized: sometimes it’s not the big desires that shape our life…it’s actually the sneaky little personal lies we’re carrying around underneath them. (So deep) 

And these lies? They don’t come out in full sentences. They’re actually subconscious prayers.

Quiet, hidden beliefs that our nervous system thinks will keep us safe.

And because the subconscious RUNS the show, those lies can end up being louder than our actual prayers.

For me? I uncovered one that shook me a little.

👉 “Until I know I won’t fail, I better hold back.”

And honestly… WOW! The moment I saw it, so much made sense! Why I procrastinate, why I spin my wheels, and why some of the things I’ve been calling in still haven’t fully landed in my reality! 🤯

So, what are these “personal lies”?

They’re those deep-in-your-bones beliefs that come from old experiences, childhood conditioning, survival mode. 

They sound like:

• “I’m not enough.”

• “That’s only for lucky people.”

• “If I really shine, people won’t like me.”

• “I want to leave this relationship, but I’m too scared to be on my own.”

• “If I try, I’ll probably fail.”

And even though they’re not true, they FEEL true in our body. They sneak out as procrastination, overthinking, people-pleasing, or self-sabotage. The wild part? We usually don’t even notice them until we get quiet enough to look! 

Why they matter

Here’s the kicker: the energy behind our subconscious beliefs is usually stronger than the energy behind our conscious desires. So while we’re out here praying for the soulmate, the business, the freedom… our subconscious is quietly praying for safety.

And let’s be real SAFETY always wins. Our nervous system will choose protection over expansion every single time! 

How I started spotting mine (and how you can too)

I asked myself some questions and they were like little flashlights into my subconscious:

1. What do I say I want… but never seem to make progress toward?

2. If I slowed down and got radically honest, what’s the fear underneath?

3. What “rule” do I secretly live by that might not actually be true?

Like, say you want to start a podcast. But deep down you’re carrying the belief: “If I speak my truth, I’ll be rejected.” Well, of course the podcast keeps getting delayed. That personal lie will quietly cancel out your microphone dreams until you bring it into the light.

What’s been helping me shift them

The cool thing is, once you spot a personal lie, it loses SO much power. You can actually meet it with compassion instead of shame. 

Here’s what I’ve been practicing:

• Name it. Write it down. Literally say, “This is a personal lie, not the truth of who I am.”

• Create safety. Place a hand on your heart, breathe deep, remind yourself: “It’s safe to grow.”

• Flip the script. If the lie is, “I’ll fail if I try,” then my new truth becomes: “Every step forward makes me stronger.”

• Take micro-action. Do one tiny thing today that aligns with your desire. Show yourself it’s safe to move.

The big reframe

Here’s the piece that feels like gold to me: our “problems” aren’t really problems. They’re invitations. Yes, I said it.. INVITATIONS!! Every block, every stuck moment, every trigger- it’s just showing us what’s really running the show, and giving us a chance to rewrite the script!! 

The more we get present with these subconscious prayers, the more we can actually line up with what we truly want. That’s how we stop fighting against ourselves and become the energy of our desires.

So next time you feel stuck, ask yourself:

✨ “What personal lie might be at play here?”

✨ “What truth do I want to choose instead?”

Because our desires aren’t the issue!! They’re already waiting for us. It’s the sneaky personal lies that need to be seen, loved, and released.

And once you do that? Manifestation stops being this uphill grind. It starts to feel like breathing.

Let’s shift together

If this lands for you, don’t keep it to yourself. Share it with a friend you know could use this reminder. Because honestly, when we all start getting radically honest with ourselves and start choosing truth over lies the whole world shifts. One conversation, one brave step, one aligned action at a time.
