I was really excited to do this readalong with @tandemcollectiveglobal. Nonfiction, specifically self-help books, has always been a passion of mine and typically really helpful and inspiring.
I struggled with this one. I didn't like how long the chapters were and how long it took to get to the meat and bones of the book. The first part is stacked with inspiring stories that started to get me excited but then they dragged on and on and on. I wanted to get to the good stuff, but by the time I had got there, I was bored. I think I will come back and try tapping in the future, but right now I don't know how to work it in. I think this book could have been better organized to keep readers invested.

I should caveat this by saying that I’ve been a big fan of Haley’s content for a few years now, and I’m a member of her Dreamaway community — but I suppose that also just indicates how much I’ve benefited from her work, her energy, and her unique perspective on what each of us can do to create a life that feels authentically aligned!
This book is a perfect encapsulation of Haley’s wisdom, guiding readers through tangible ways to create the life of their dreams through her Subconscious Breakthrough Formula. While a lot of the content may seem “woo-woo” to some, Haley backs up her tips with scientific research and specific examples from her own life and her community members’ experiences. And, if nothing else, she makes the process so simple and easy to follow that it’s worth a try for even the most ardent skeptic!
Even though I’m very familiar with Haley’s work — specifically the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) tapping work that she guides her community members through — it was still really interesting to read about the process, and really helpful to have all of Haley’s tips collected in one place. Though I think being part of her Dreamaway community is well worth the investment, I appreciate that this book makes her work accessible to so many more people!
I appreciate that the wisdom Haley offers in her book is available to all of us, and — in a society that seems increasingly hellbent on making us more homogenous — only encourages us to be more of who we authentically are and to create the lives we authentically desire. May that be a reality available to more and more of us because of this book and because of this work! ✨

3.5 🌟 Seemed like a good book to kick off the new year and it was! Nothing in the book was groundbreaking or provided me with an a-ha moment, but the author seemed passionate and dedicated to her mission of manifestation via tapping. She gave some nice personal explanations of how manifestation has changed her life as well a good amount of science backing up her ideas. I wanted to feel more connected to the book than I did, but overall a worthy listen with some positive information!

I really enjoyed this self-help book - it’s quite empowering! There are several step-by-step exercises that help you reevaluate your life that are simple and thought-provoking. One thing I really appreciated about the book is that it wasn’t the author’s story - she rarely shared her life story, and gave small anecdotes from various people she’s come across to help make various scenarios relatable. I found these anecdotes quite helpful, and I loved that the focus was on the reader, not other people’s stories.
💚 One of my favorite quotes from this book is:
“It is very difficult to hold both gratitude and worry at the same time. Let gratitude win; it’s more productive and feels better.”

I bought this book as soon as it came out and was soooo excited. Unfortunately, it wasn’t nearly as good as I expected. The writing felt immature to me, and the entire focus was just a lot of stories of the author’s personal life. It was largely focused on growing a social media following, which I couldn’t relate to. I wish the book had been more focused on the reader and less on the author. It read more as a memoir to me than an actual self help book. I was so disappointed.

"You've always had the power, my dear, you just had to learn it for yourself." — Glinda the Good Witch, The Wizard of Oz
Haley’s book, You Have the Magic, is a soulful and transformative guide that empowers readers to do what Glinda reminds Dorothy of: realize the power that’s already within. Haley, a subconscious breakthrough coach, content creator, and founder of the Dreamaway community, is known for her work in mindset, manifestation, and spirituality. Through her powerful EFT tapping method (where she taps on four meridian points, more on that in a bit), she’s helped thousands rewire their minds and unlock emotional and energetic freedom. I have been one of the lucky ones among them.
This book is more than just a read. It’s an awakening! Even though I’ve been tapping since I was 19 years old, You Have the Magic opened my eyes to an entirely new depth of understanding. Learning what meridian point corresponds to in the body for starters. I found myself mentally highlighting entire sections about the mind-body connection. In standard EFT tapping, we typically use points like the top of the head, eyebrow, side of the eye, under the eye, under the nose, chin, collarbone, and side of the wrist. But in Haley’s streamlined Fast EFT process, she focuses on the front of the eyebrow, side of the eye, under the eye, collarbones, and ends with a gentle squeeze of the wrist.
Learning the why behind each point made the process even more powerful. For example, the front of the eyebrow is linked to the bladder meridian, associated with deep emotional distress and our fight-or-flight response. The side of the eye connects to the gallbladder and liver meridians—organs said in Chinese medicine to store frustration, anger, and indecision. As Haley writes, “These organs in our body are thought to hold irritation, anger, resentment, frustration, rigidity, and indecisiveness.” No wonder she encourages us to vent while tapping here—even her signature “UGHHH!” feels oddly hopeful and cathartic. Under the eye corresponds to the stomach, which makes perfect sense—how often have we felt that pit in our stomach when worried? Now, when I feel that familiar flutter of nerves, I actually look forward to tapping on this point, watching the anxiety “dissolve, disappear, and fade away,” as Haley so gently says. But what truly blew my mind (and had me texting Haley a string of jaw-dropped emojis) was learning that the collarbone point ties to the kidneys and sometimes the stomach—both deeply linked to emotional regulation and feelings of peace. I’ve always instinctively tapped on my collarbone during anxious moments in public—subtly, discreetly—and now I know why it worked so well. It wasn’t just soothing. It was science. Magic and medicine, wrapped up in one.
Haley breaks down the subconscious breakthrough formula with clarity and heart, making profound concepts feel accessible. She shows how the patterns we carry—often from childhood or buried belief systems—can be shifted. You Have the Magic is a toolkit for inner alchemy. Her EFT tapping techniques are game changers, helping to form new, healthier neural pathways. I’ve felt this shift myself and I’m always so surprised when they occur.
What moved me most, though, is Haley’s reminder to trust the timing of your life. That, even when things feel delayed or uncertain, we are—like Dorothy—always right on time. The lessons, the breakthroughs, the magic—they unfold exactly when we’re ready. This isn’t just a comforting idea—it’s something I’ve felt on a soul level through Haley’s work. I’ve returned to her Slingshot Session: Letting Go of the How from her Surrender Series more times than I can count, especially in seasons of uncertainty when I needed to remember that I don’t have to control every step—just stay aligned and trust. Her Dreamaway 90-minute breakout session in Right On Time cracked something open in me. It reminded me that even when life seems off-course or stuck, it's actually unfolding in divine precision. I’ve cried, tapped, laughed, and let go with her guidance, and each time I do, I return to myself with more peace and presence. Haley doesn’t just talk about trusting the timing—she gives you the tools to feel it, embody it, and live it.
Haley is not just an incredible coach and author—she’s a friend who has helped me through blocks I never thought I could move past. To see her shine so brightly and offer her wisdom to the world in this book fills me with pride and hope.
If you're on a journey of transformation—if you feel there’s more waiting for you, just beyond the curtain of your own subconscious—I can't recommend You Have the Magic enough. And if you want to experience the magic that is Haley Hoffman Smith, I encourage you to get a taste of her coaching by joining Dreamaway.
Because, as Haley emphasizes in her book, you do have the magic. You always have.

"You Have the Magic" is a practical guide to the art of manifestation. It has the perfect balance of scientific methods and practices to encourage readers to take action in order to enact positive changes in their lives.
Haley Hoffman Smith's voice is warm and friendly. The book reads like chatting with your best friend over coffee or cocktails. I loved the fun, playful tone. While some manifestation content can be daunting to understand, Hoffman Smith explains concepts clearly and concisely, while giving relevant examples. It's an uplifting read that inspires action, and its lessons can be tailored uniquely to each individual who reads it.
While some scientific manifestation content is hard to follow, Hoffman Smith's approach is easy to digest and apply. She breaks down the sciences and techniques of manifestation well. She describes and gives examples of how to use manifestation techniques like visualization and mind movies.
Hoffman Smith's message is a positive one that encourages readers to move away from a victim mindset to step into their own power. She encourages her readers to get into the driver's seat of their lives and start creating the life they want. Hoffman Smith's message is to find your authenticity and be yourself.
Hoffman Smith also integrates the practice of EFT tapping into her book. This self-help technique was a great supplement to the practices described in the book.
"You Have the Magic" is the perfect read for anyone who is curious about manifestation from dabblers to advanced practitioners. It's a reminder that we all have magic inside of us, and we should use it with love and authenticity every day.

You Have the Magic has transformed my life from the moment I picked it up. Haley has a way of sharing her insights and stories of personal transformation with warmth, wisdom, and heart. I genuinely felt as though I was sitting across from her over coffee, soaking in her insights and techniques. Her power of narrative is transformative.
Haley’s unique gift lies in her ability to make profound life lessons and tools feel so accessible. From the moment I started following her teachings of EFT tapping and the Subconscious Breakthrough formula, I have experienced major shifts in my own life, especially financially and romantically. And I know that her empowering book allows others to blossom just the same.
You Have the Magic has guided me to realize I already have the power within me to create my dreams. Some may call it magic, but I call it Haley’s gift to us all. I will return to this book for years to come for inspiration and for vivid proof that our dream lives are possible.

I am so glad to have participated in this readalong for ‘You Have The Magic’ by @haleyhoffmansmith. Although I am not one to usually grab such a genre and actually go through the tasks in the book, it was so simple to get pulled into it and get myself engaged with some of the exercises.
There is a lot to learn within this book. The Subconscious Breakthrough Formula is new to me and although reading about it may sound a little far-fetched to some, there is a lot of science that backs it up, making it more profound.
Apart from this, there’s tons of knowledge in this book and a lot of new things to learn about in terms of how the brain and mind functions when thinking of something negative as opposed to positive, and how magical it could be if you just believed in yourself and blocked out or walked through the pessimistic mindset.
A huge thank you to @tandemcollectiveglobal @runningpressbooks @rpmystic @haleyhoffmansmith for the readalong and the copy!

As an avid listener of the Big Conversations podcast and follower of HHS for years, I knew I was going to read and resonate with her book as soon as she announced it. I absolutely can hear her voice and genuine joy in every word, and I'm so glad to have read it! I've done EFT on and off for years, but I loved reading about Haley's shortened version of EFT and implementing it. It really works and FAST! It's worth a try next time you find yourself in an emotionally charged situation. I finished the book feeling so inspired by the magic of life and potential of EFT, and I think it's worth the read for a magical perspective on healing and manifestation.

This book made me dig into stuff that I hadn't even considered before. A positive mindset and believing that you have the magic to change your environment, career, financial situation, relationship... whatever it might be, can make a huge difference in your perception and the energy around you. We all believe in magic as kids and think anything is possible, this book will help you tap back into that magical fountain.

Haley @haleyhhoffmansmith is a goddess!! I've waited for this book for so long and I'm so happy it's finally out. Most importantly, I love that I have access her loving energy through this book. It's so beautifully written, from the very first sentence. The storyteller is stellar. May God bless you Hailey for sharing and spreading so much light into this world. Sending you so much love and light. P.S. I'm positive I'll devour this book in days.

I have loved Haley Hoffman Smith ever since I found her TikTok during the pandemic, and she was one of the reasons I started exploring manifesting and affirmations, so it was a no brainer that I had to pick this book up. I wouldn’t say this book was groundbreaking to anyone who has read into these practices, but if you’re just beginning your own journey with them, this is a great starting point.

Sooo good! I found Haley (and this book) recently when I was looking to learn more about EFT Tapping. Tapping has been so effective for me and I wanted to be able to have more knowledge so that I can personalize my sessions instead of following a YouTube video.
I did not want to put this book down. The neuroscience information had me locked in. I’m excited to follow her Tapping process (I already have and it is awesome) regularly and try some of the other exercises she recommends.

thank you Tandem Collective for the gifted copy.
This was a great read. I loved the mix of woo-woo supported by scientific evidence. I've already had some breakthroughs just from the journaling exercises! I'm excited to work on a new vision board as well using Haley's tips. Definitely recommend giving this one a read.

Haley has written such an impressive and empathetic book—her understanding of self-talk, vulnerability, and personal growth is unmatched. She doesn’t just ask you to reflect; she invites you to discover yourself. As she shares passages from her own journals, your confidence grows, and suddenly, you’re seeing life with fresh eyes—ready to embrace your dreams.
July 8, 2025
Loved it! Haley breaks down limiting beliefs and how to move through them with compassion and clarity. She blends and explains spirituality, science, and self-worth in a way where you understand it. Highly Recommend for those that want to grow and learn how our subconscious mind works and how important it is to regulate our nervous system.

I loved this book, about 7 hours long on audible- read by author. I’d been watching HHS TikToks for a while before picking it up, and the book delivered the same motivating energy I love from her videos. I liked how it mixed personal stories with practical advice, making it feel like I was getting guidance from a friend who’s been there. It really pushed me to think bigger and stop holding back on the things I want to go after.
August 12, 2026
It is a very healing book with lots of new and unique information. I really loved how it went in depth about the subconscious mind along with manifestation, interconnecting both concepts in a beautiful and non repetitive manner.
The writing of this book is simple to understand, making it a quick and fun read. 🩷🎀✨️

Loved it! This is a super easy how to on rewriting your brain. It’s fun, light, and easy to read and understand but still rooted in science and fact. I journaled 5 pages using her subconscious breakthrough technique and found huge two blocks I never knew I had.
March 8, 2026
I think this was a good introduction to manifestation, affirmation, eft tapping. She explains everything in simple child-like terms.
This book was also like a memoir where she shares her past experiences — in which I hoped to also learn more real stories from others.
