The Universe Is Your Friend
An uplifting weekly podcast where we stop overthinking and start creating the life we actually want with the Universe by our side!
Hi! I’m Kristen Greenwood, your manifestation mentor, self-trust hype girl, and spiritual bestie with a side of tough love. Welcome to The Universe Is Your Friend Podcast. I’m so glad you’re here.
This podcast was born from my own “what am I doing with my life?”
moments — working a job I hated, doubting every step I took, and feeling like everyone else had the manual to life except me. I always knew I was meant for more… I just had no idea how to start.
Now I’m figuring it out one step at a time and I’m bringing you with me.
Each week, you’ll get:
· Real talk about the Law of Attraction (minus the fluff)
· The rituals and mindset shifts that actually help
· Stories from my own journey - the wins, the wobbles, and the weird signs from the Universe
· Book recs, pep talks, and little nudges when you need them most
This podcast is your reminder that you can do big things - even if your life feels like chaos right now, even if you don’t have it all figured out, and even if you're still eating cereal for dinner some nights (bc same).
So grab your headphones and let’s manifest some magic, one Monday at a time.
And don’t forget... The Universe Is Your Best Freaking Friend <3

47. Perfectionism Will Kill Your Manifestations... Let's Talk About It

Hi There, welcome to this week's episode of The Universe Is Your Friend!
This week I am just letting my thoughts flow right out of me as I talk all about how perfectionism has often hindered my manifestations.
I've been learning about and using manifestation for almost 5 years now and throughout my journey I've noticed a theme of jumping from one emotional extreme to another. I've found that I will often have these waves of clarity wash over me, where the law of attraction becomes extremely clear and easy. In these moments I'll feel very sure of myself, very peaceful and calm, and I'll feel like my desires are the next logical thing for me.
However, soon after these waves of clarity, I'm often hit with a wave of the opposite emotion. Somehow my fears and doubts latch on and I talk myself down a spiral until I feel complete and utter despair. You might know the feeling, when you suddenly have overwhelming doubts about your ability to manifest and you wonder if you're ever going to reach your desires.
Over the years, I have become a lot more accustomed to this rollercoaster of emotions. I have learnt to be more confident in myself and my ability to manifest, so my high-vibe mindset is much harder to crack. What I have come to realise however, is that perfectionism is at the root of this issue.
As a recovering perfectionist, for a long time, I've put immense pressure on myself and my manifestations. I would often picture myself achieving my desires and living my dream life, but I would picture the 'perfect' version of myself. A version of myself that has no fears, no doubts, no negative thoughts, no 'what ifs?'. Even down to my daily routines and inspired action - I would picture this perfect version of myself taking consistent and unwavering action toward my goals every single day. But... I hate to break it to you. We are imperfect people. As humans, we are bound to have moments of weakness or worry and we will inevitably stray off the perfect path.
So every time this happened, every time I would doubt my manifestations or stray from my perfect routine, I would feel that I've sabotaged my desires. Now I see that manifesting your dream life does not require perfection. You can and you will manifest your dreams despite any doubt that may arise, any fear that may rear it's ugly head. You just have to relax. So let's unpack it in Today's episode!
