The self-improvement podcaster and mother aims her latest book at mothers. Hannah Stephenson reports

SINGLE mother and self-improvement queen Francesca Amber reckons she manifested her husband, the dream house she now lives in and even the gender of her twin daughters.
Before she met her (now ex) husband, she had a photo of him from a dating website and a picture of him on her vision board for two-and-a-half years and then met him on a blind date through a friend who had no knowledge of the vision board.
Despite being diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome, she went on to have a daughter, Bohemia, with him, and after they divorced had twin daughters from a brief relationship.
She wanted girls because both her uncle and her brother had died in freak circumstances and she believed if she had a boy something bad would happen.
But after a DNA test, she was told she was having twin boys.
“I had a nervous breakdown for 48 hours. Gender disappointment is something I’ve talked about quite a lot because I think it’s okay to want what you want. And I was suddenly like, ‘God, I’m going to have three children and potentially two b**** boys!’ I cried for 24 hours”
Later, she took out a notepad to list 10 things she was thankful for in this situation, which included already having a daughter, thankful she could get pregnant and that the unborn babies were healthy.
That evening her clinician phoned back, apologising profusely that she had made a mistake and that Amber was having twin girls.
“I could not believe it,” Amber, 40, recalls. “There are moments with the law of attraction where you think, how? Now I’ve got three girls. It’s a miracle’”
Twins Riva and Laveau are now four, Bohemia is nine and their mother is living her happiest life. She believes manifesting had a lot to do with it.
