Episode Details

Ready for some manifestation magic? My guest on this week’s Breathe Love & Magic podcast is all about creating wish postcards and sending them to the Universe. Meet Melisa Caprio!

What Got Melisa Started with Postcards?

I started the conversation with Melisa by talking about art journaling, one of my latest passions and creative outlets. Melissa is a photographer who enjoys taking pictures of hand written letters with props that match the content.

Melisa has a fine art background and was working at a job taking photographs of special needs children doing therapy with dolphins. That sounds amazing. Living in the Florida Keys, things were good.

Then, three big things happened all at once. Her job ended, her marriage fell apart, and she was moving. This was a difficult time which caused her to start questioning everything – why is this happening to me?

The Law of Attraction

She ended up reading a lot and ran into the idea of the Law of Attraction. How to manifest your dreams was great reading. She realized her energy had attracted these endings into her life.

While the bad news was that she’s responsible for everything in her life, the good news is she’s also responsible for manifesting the things she wants!

Knowing that she couldn’t go back to commercial photography because it didn’t call to her anymore, she was looking for new horizons.

Melisa went back to fine art and taking pictures of beautifully handwritten cards and letters. While falling asleep one night, she heard these words in her head, “Postcards to the Universe.” She knew it was important and followed up by buying the domain name.

Easy Manifestation Magic

The name sat for a full year untouched. Then, she started meeting people who helped her get things going. She met a copywriter who helped with writing the website and designer to create the site, so Melisa was on her way.

Next, the idea came to start connecting with other people who enjoy manifesting and creating vision boards. That led her to work on a book, which features people’s mini-vision boards and their stories of manifesting.

Today, people send her postcards and she chooses the ones to photograph and tells the person’s story on her radio show and podcast. The best part is when her clients write later, letting her know their desire came true!

Melisa works all the time on avoiding the rabbit hole of complaining about how things aren’t working. She tries not to live there or talk about it all day because that would be focusing on what she doesn’t want!

With manifesting, you want to be intentional about what you create.
