A specialist in a particular branch of knowledge.
- manifester55%
Someone who actively and seriously practices manifestation — the belief that focused intention, visualization, and alignment with desired outcomes can attract those outcomes into reality. On Gen Z social media a manifester is either a wellness devotee who journals, vision boards, and affirmations their way through life, or an ironic self-descriptor for anyone who wants something badly enough to declare it to the universe. The word oscillates between sincere spiritual practice and gentle self-deprecation depending on who's using it.
