Where to Find a Man? Tell Katelyn What to Do with Her Life, Part II
Can Katelyn draw a man into her orbit by sheer force of will? Part two of a special summer series, featuring Elizabeth Oldfield and the Beaty Brain Trust.



Behold … the power of man-ifesting.

She’s been on the apps. She’s been to church events. She even went to a speed dating mixer with Roxy back in the day. So maybe it’s time Katelyn mixed up her search for romance. Manifesting — the belief that our thoughts determine our futures — grows out of the positive thinking movement and has a distinctly American bent. Is it all hooey, or is there something to it?


In episode 2 of our SBTC summer series, Katelyn asks the Beaty Brain Trust for tips and tricks on finding romance. Then she hits the streets of New York City to see if this whole manifesting idea has any merit. (Hint: It ends in a bar called “Up Stairs,” with a free drink and some chicken tendies.) She also welcomes back Elizabeth Oldfield for a conversation on finding God amid longings deferred.
