Make it Happen: Manifest the Life of Your Dreams By : Jordanna Levin READ BOOK NOW     Book Synopsis : Everyone can manifest. We're all doing it-every second of every day-without even realising it. For years, journalist and podcaster Jordanna Levin thought that she was psychic. She would worry about things and they would come true.
