I think the standard formula is "I'm going to do a trick". <does trick where woman appears out of box>. "Now I'm going to do it again, this time showing you how it worked". <moves camera behind box, does another trick which looks the same from the front, but from behind woman is seen to be concealed in hidden compartment of box all along. Disassembles box, woman has vanished>.
But I understood "I'm going to show you how to do it" to mean, "I'm going to present a one-hour show in which I do various effects relating to numbers, with the theme that I'm supposedly preparing to predict the lottery, and that with the same preparation you could do it too". Rather than "I'm going to present a one hour show in which I show you how to do that one effect".
