New York: If you’ve been scrolling through spiritual TikTok or following self-help feeds, you’ve probably seen two phrases everywhere: Law of Attraction and Law of Assumption. Both promise you can shape your life with thought, but they’re not the same.
On her latest podcast episode, Gabby Bernstein breaks the ideas down in a clear, kind way that makes them feel usable, not mystical. Here’s what she said, why listeners responded, and how you can turn the episode into a great conversation on your own show.

In plain words: What each Law says
Gabby starts simple. The Law of Attraction says: like attracts like. If you focus on abundance, abundance comes back to you. Think of it as tuning your mind to a frequency and letting similar things appear.
The Law of Assumption goes a step further. It asks you to assume the feeling of already having what you want. Don’t just think about abundance, act and feel as if you already live in that reality. For Gabby, the shift is subtle but powerful: assumption is more about identity and feeling; attraction is more about energy and attention.
She stresses one gentle truth: both need inner work. Positive thinking alone won’t change a messy life. You also need self-belief, small actions, and honest emotional clearing. That’s her practical twist on spiritual language.
Why this matters (and why people argued online)
When Gabby released the episode, social feeds lit up. Some followers loved the clarity: “Finally sense over woo!” Others pushed back: “Isn’t this just toxic positivity dressed up as spirituality?” That argument surfaces often: Does speaking abundance ignore real barriers like poverty, trauma, or systemic discrimination?
Gabby answers that head-on. She says these tools aren’t about blaming people for hard things. Instead, they’re practices to help you respond to difficulty with more choice. She recommends pairing visualisation with real plans, job applications, therapy, and community support so the spiritual work complements practical steps.
That balanced take is why people shared clips: one short clip of Gabby telling listeners to “feel into the version of you who already has this” gained thousands of likes because it felt immediate and doable.
The step-by-step instructions Gabby gives listeners
Gabby offers a simple exercise you can use right away:
- Pause for 2 minutes and breathe.
- Picture the end result—what does your life look like? Who are you in it?
- Assume the feeling of being that person for five minutes—how do you stand, speak, breathe?
- Act on one small thing today that matches that feeling (send one email, make one call).
- Journal what shifted.
She says the real power is repetition: small daily assumptions reshape identity over weeks and months.
Social media reaction & why podcasters should care
On Instagram and TikTok, creators clipped Gabby’s explanation into short reels: some titled “Law of Assumption in 60 seconds,” others asked “Attraction vs Assumption Which changed your life?” Comments trended around two themes: testimonials (“I tried the exercise and got the interview”) and concerns (“Feels like gaslighting when someone is in a crisis”).
For podcast hosts, this split is perfect. You can create a balanced episode with a practical demo, a skeptical guest, and a listener call-in segment. People love a mix of proof, honesty, and real talk.
Easy podcast segment ideas
- Quick demo (3–5 min): Play a short clip of Gabby, then run the 5-minute assumption exercise live with a guest. Ask the guest to share how they felt.
- Skeptic vs believer (15 min): Invite a therapist or social worker to discuss where these practices help and where institutions must step in.
- Success stories (8 min): Read listener emails or calls describing small wins after practicing assumptions.
- Practical toolkit (7 min): End with three daily steps listeners can try this week (breath + assume + one concrete action).
Gabby Bernstein’s episode does something rare: it takes two buzzwordy spiritual ideas and makes them humane, useful, and testable. The Law of Attraction gives you attention; the Law of Assumption gives you identity. Together and paired with action they become tools, not blame.
For podcasters, that’s the hook. This topic invites personal stories, scientific skepticism, and a how-to session your audience can try between episodes.
