Strange feelings
I really liked Lacy’s content until I listened to a podcast episode when she claims that all immigrant families generally share certain community-oriented values that other American families don’t. It reflected an ignorant of the diversity of values and instead generalized both recent immigrants and Americans. Throughout the podcasts, Phillips repeatedly relies on the fact she has some familial relationship to a recent immigrant as justification for not engaging in a broader dialogue about differentiating ‘manifestations’ from products of privilege. Indeed, many of her guests describe coming from wealthy families and it seems portrayed as pure spiritual power that they continue to be wealthy: i.e ‘rejecting everything from my upper class life to take 8 years off of work to go on some spiritual journey to then start a wellness practice.’ The irony is that these same shadows Phillips encourages us to identify and clear are those which cause a refusal to recognize that the success of a middle class white prior model assuredly cannot be entirely spiritual and financial bootstrapping. Maybe Phillips will one day come into self-awareness by teasing out her successes borne from will versus privilege and clear whatever shame seems to be accompanying the privilege, most likely a common fear of being hopelessly average. Some of Phillips’s defensive responses to similar criticism — her dismissive video retort, censoring membership and content — have revealed an ugly side to pop-manifestation ideologies: are we working on ourselves to manifest a better world or for biomats and French boyfriends?
