About this listen
Can you really conjure the life of your dreams? And what if you say the wrong spell?
It’s 2006. After a string of rejections from men who tell her they could never, ever, ever see her “that way,” awkward third-grade teacher Micaela Blei signs up for a mysterious course called “The Divine Feminine,” and feels like she might have found the key to the perfect life.
Turns out if you’re an A student, you can get an A in anything–including men. Pretty soon she’s learning to "conjure" her desires with vision boards, flirtations, and even a daring jumbotron viewing party for her, ahem ... "divine center." But the more Micaela aces her assignments, and watches her most unlikely dreams come true, the more she wonders: Is her perfect new life the real thing, or is there a hidden cost to getting everything she thought she wanted?
Women have put themselves through a lot of f*cked up situations to feel valued and lovable. This is a sharply funny, often painfully relatable true story featuring the great tropes of early 2000s romantic comedies: self-discovery, dating disasters, epic makeover montages, and finding love where you never thought to look.
Praise for Micaela’s storytelling:
"Ms. Blei’s story was magical and riveting ... in the end, you really wanted her to be your teacher." (Lara O’Brien, MV Times)
“Micaela is a storytelling wizard. She transforms the stuff of everyday life into profound stories that move people–and make them laugh.” (Tyler Wetherall, author of No Way Home: A Memoir of Life on the Run and Amphibian)
“Micaela Blei's storytelling is fresh, hilarious, and surprisingly moving.” (Sarah Moore, Theatre Is Easy)

When you're doing something that's out of the ordinary, your mental programing, your paradigm, will try and stop you. If you want to win, you must keep going. Your paradigms may be masked in complacency, fear, worry, anxiety, insecurities, self-doubt, mental hurry, and self-loathing - the result is keeping you stuck...locked in a box and starved of your dreams and ambitions.

If a man doesn't take you seriously, he may feel compelled to have a good time with you. Unfortunately this good time will last until you finally realize you're being taken for a ride or until Mr. Time Waster ultimately moves on to a woman he REALLY wants. In cases like this, what a woman really requires are two things: a healthy amount of self-respect and a set of "player-proof" dating rules that will allow her to make wise dating decisions.

"It is my sincere desire that this simple practice, which is based on the highest teachings of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, be accessible to many in the West." - Yeshi Dawa. Our thoughts vibrate, our words vibrate, our organs vibrate, everything vibrates at a certain frequency. If this vibration is not balanced, it can lead to mental and physical discomfort. For thousands of years, Tibetan singing bowls have been used to heal health complaints. The pulsating tones can lower blood pressure and heart rate, reduce cardiac complications, increase immune response.

The resurgence of viral clips from the long-running hit reality television show America’s Next Top Model left fans and foes alike wondering–how did a show so outrageous and at times offensive ever get on the air? For years, Americans dutifully watched as contestants faced uncomfortable situations regarding their race and gender, body-shaming, stereotyping, and problematic photoshoots. The show, which first premiered in 2003 and ran for 24 cycles, was helmed by supermodel Tyra Banks–the first Black female host of a smash network reality show.

Without the cooperation of your subconscious - the deep recesses of your inner self - change can be difficult to impossible. You might consciously have tried to lose weight. But if your subconscious mind was fixated on fattening food and how difficult exercise was, the experience was probably a challenge or a dismal failure. Therefore, changing one or more aspects of your life can’t occur until you affect change on your subconscious.

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

Perfect storytelling
Micaela is one of my favorite Moth storytellers so I was really excited to hear about this - and it did not disappoint! Laugh out loud funny from the very outset, it’s also heartwarming, moving, and often brutally honest. But behind the totally charming experience of listening, the story also operates on another deeper thematic level, as an examination of the expectations put on women, how we internalize these toxic dogmas about how we should look and act, and on this level Micaela’s story stands as a redemptive and brilliant antidote. I hope everyone listens!

Superb storytelling, funny and poignant
Micaela is an incredible storyteller, with great delivery. It feels like listening to a close friend recount some epic adventures and the lessons she learned from them. I loved how she combined the challenges of dating with managing a chronic illness, and simply trying to figure out who she wanted to be. I’m recommending to all my friends.

Felt like a deep and funny conversation with a friend
My only complaint is that I wish it was longer — I was so sad when it ended that I didn’t get to spend any more time in Micaela’s company! This story is so wonderful and funny and charming that its depth almost sneaks up on you. It’s an incisive critique of the self-help industry but feels just like a phone call from your best friend. A lot of this is due to the author’s wonderful, natural and conversational narration.

Maybe the weirdest story I ever loved
If you can get past the first 10 minutes of the P word, this is a fun story with a good message. But the narration and the way the story is told was definitely my favorite part

Realism
Very honest and very good. Easy to identify with author. Challenging, because it can trigger memories of one’s past.

Empowering and Relatable Story of Self Discovery
Micaela’s story was an absolute delight to listen to. The simple yet profound storytelling drew me in, offering a refreshing perspective on pursuing desires and goals as a woman. Even as a married listener who isn’t seeking advice on finding love, I found the story message, empowering and universally applicable. Blei’s candid and relatable approach made this story an inspiring reminder that self-discovery and determination can transform your life.

The Heartwarming Story and Laughs I didn’t know I Needed
This is one of the only audibles I’ve completed start to finish, and in one day. I’m hungry for more by this author and narrator. I could relate to so much of this and it was beautiful to hear such a raw, authentic story with so many lessons and insights sprinkled throughout. Performed beautifully and naturally. I would absolutely love more content from this author! Thank you for sharing your story in such an open, honest and beautiful way.
