Coach Michael Kane has an impressive resume that includes 6 State Championship titles and with over 800 wins he is one of the winningest coaches in Texas volleyball history. Michael is the Director of Austin Performance Volleyball and Head Coach of Dripping Springs High School, and he has accomplished many accolades over the course of over two decades as a coach.

We’re back with Part Two of our series, How to Get What You REALLY Want - Money, Manifestation & Intuition, and I’m again joined by Kathrin Zenkina (aka “Manifestation Babe”) and Team Wedmore’s very own Jen Finley to talk all about manifestation. We reveal simple processes that we each use, what is happening when manifesting isn’t working for people, and we share cool stories of what we’ve been able to manifest at different stages of our own life and careers. If you’re not already being intentional with where you’re holding your attention, frequency and what you’re attracting, this is going to be a really powerful episode (and series!) to help you begin practicing that!  We have created a powerful workbook for you that you can get now at https://mindyourbusinesspodcast.com/workbook.
