HELLO HELLO, Fellow Dreamers!
I'm back! This week’s episode is extra special because it’s the first one I’m recording from Spain. Yes - we packed up our family of six and moved across the world to Estepona to live and “worldschool” through this incredible program called Boundless Life.
If you’ve followed me for a while, you know this wasn’t random. Living abroad with Alex and the kids has been on my vision board for years. I even wrote down on January 1st - one week before the Palisades fires - “I want to worldschool the kids.”
Nine months later, here we are!
In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of our first full week in Spain: the beauty, the chaos, the funny moments, and a powerful lesson in manifesting your dream life.

Here’s what we dive into:

🌍 What Boundless Life actually is: the model, the philosophy, and why we chose Spain out of all the destinations.

🎒 Worldschooling vs. traditional schooling: what the Boundless education looks like for kids, how it integrates subjects through projects, and the emotional intelligence practices woven into the day.

🏡 Our daily rhythm in Spain: from walking through flower-filled streets to school, to grocery shopping, to adjusting to the slower Spanish pace of life.

😅 The highs and lows of week one: travel mishaps, wasp stings, grocery store fails…alongside magical meals, new friendships, and moments of awe.

💡 Learnings and surprises: like how conversations never start with “what do you do,” what Spaniards think of our big family, and the unexpected depth of connection with the other moms here.

🎯 Our intentions for this season: what I hope to experience, create, and call in during our three months here.

✨ Manifestation in action: how I wrote this desire down, held the vision, and trusted the timing - even when it seemed impossible.

By the end of this episode, my hope is that you’ll feel like you’ve traveled to Spain with me, and that you’ll walk away with powerful takeaways for your own dreams, whether it’s worldschooling abroad or manifesting something completely different!
So grab your coffee (or your glass of sangria 😉), settle in, and join me!

Dream Your Life Retreat on Friday March 7th, 2025 -- all the deets!
In this episode, I introduce Manifestation 2.0—a more evolved and powerful way to manifest. Instead of focusing on rigid goals or forcing outcomes, this approach is about tapping into the feeling of what you desire, aligning with that energy, and allowing the Universe to bring it to you in ways beyond what you can imagine.
We’ll dive into:
✨ How to shift from control to trust—and the secret ingredient in manifestation
✨ Why feeling matters more than the vision—and how to embody your desires before they manifest
✨ How to manifest from a place of strength and alignment, even when life takes unexpected turns—like losing my home in the fires
✨ How I unexpectedly manifested the most aligned opportunity—expanding my Dream Builders curriculum into prisons across Hawaii
✨ The DREAMS Method Revisited—a simple, powerful framework to manifest in flow
✨ How YOU can apply Manifestation 2.0 to your own life—no matter what you’re calling in

This episode is for anyone who has ever wondered: Why isn’t my manifestation working? or How do I stay in alignment when things don’t go as planned?

If you’re ready to expand, trust, and co-create with the Universe in a whole new way, this episode is for you.

If this episode speaks to you, and you’re ready to elevate your manifestation practice, I would LOVE for you to join me at the 2025 Dream Your Life Retreat in Brentwood, California, on Friday, March 7th.
This will be a deeply expansive, high-vibrational day where we will:
🌟 Break through limiting beliefs
🌟 Align with our highest selves
🌟 Call in the abundance we are meant to receive
🌟 Experience powerful manifestation practices, energy work, and deep connection
This retreat will be transformational. Inspiring. Magical! And as of this recording, we have just three spots left.
If you feel the pull, this is your sign to say yes. DM me @dreamyourlifenow or add your name HERE and I'll send over the full agenda & details.

✨ If this episode resonated with you, I’d love to hear from you! Take a screenshot & share your biggest takeaway on Instagram, tagging me @dreamyourlifenow! ✨

Fellow Dreamers,

This episode was recorded less than 3 weeks after my family lost our home, all belongings & our beloved town of Pacific Palisades to the Palisades Fire.

This fire has turned our world—and our community—upside down. But amidst the devastation, something has shifted in me. I’ve come to see life through a new lens: one filled with hope, gratitude, and infinite possibilities.

In this episode, I take you on the journey of that morning, from the moment I knew we had to leave, to the waves of emotions I felt, and the lessons I’ve learned.

I’m sharing it all: the grief of losing sentimental things, the beauty of community, and the realization that true abundance comes from within.

Here’s what I dive into:

🌟 The moment I saw the fire and trusted my instincts to leave

🌟 Why losing sentimental items, like my wedding dress and family ornaments, brought both grief and clarity

🌟 The way I’m processing my emotions & helping my kids do the same

🌟 The incredible bond of my community and the magic we’ve created in the aftermath

🌟 How my relationship with luxury has evolved and why I now feel no attachment to “material things”

🌟 The blessings: health, safety, connection, and the unexpected kindness of strangers

🌟 Lessons in abundance, love, and why having “everything” means something so different now

🌟 How Alex and I approached manifesting this year in a whole new way, calling in presence, mystery, and unexpected blessings

🌟 Why I still believe the Universe has our backs, and how everything is happening for our highest good 

🌟 A spiritual perspective that gives meaning to what happened - did my soul volunteer for this?

🌟 My excitement for this next chapter & the adventure that lies ahead!

If you’ve ever faced loss, hardship, or simply want to connect more deeply with life, this episode is for you. I hope my story reminds you of the beauty of resilience and the infinite possibilities that come from even the darkest moments.

Takeaways from This Episode:

“While everyone was saying, ‘We lost everything,’ Alex looked at me and said, ‘Julia, we have everything.’”

Hello hello, dreamers! In today’s solo episode, I’m peeling back the curtain on my life—both personally and professionally—to share some BIG updates and the powerful lessons they’ve brought me.

We’re talking about surrender, trust, and letting go of control, and how these lessons have shown up in two major areas of my life: my journey to baby number four and the explosive growth of my education company, Dream Builders Academy. It’s been a year of highs, lows, and everything in between, but through it all, the message has been clear: trust the Universe and allow life to unfold in its perfect timing.

Get ready for an inspiring and heart-opening conversation that will have you reflecting on your own life and dreams!

We chat:

✨ Why baby #4 felt like a soul-level decision, even when logic said otherwise

✨ The heartbreak, clarity, and healing that came through two pregnancy losses

✨ How a spur-of-the-moment trip to Mallorca led to the ultimate surprise

✨ The one month I finally surrendered—and got pregnant!

✨ Dream Builders Academy’s wild growth and how it’s reshaped my vision

✨ The messy, beautiful process of letting go of old dreams to make room for bigger ones

✨ Why manifestation isn’t about forcing—it’s about aligning and trusting

✨ The delicate balance between inspired action and surrender

✨ How to know when it’s time to loosen your grip and let the Universe guide you

If you’ve ever felt stuck, frustrated, or unsure about how to move forward, this episode will inspire you to release the resistance, trust the process, and step into the flow.

Reflective Prompts:

What are you gripping onto so tightly that you might be creating resistance?

Where in your life can you surrender and trust the Universe to guide you?

What might open up if you allowed yourself to follow inspiration instead of control?
