On Her New Lens, host Dr. Tricia Rose Stone interviews author and traveler Chanoa Inez about losing her 41-year-old boyfriend, Bodo, who died unexpectedly in his sleep from a clot the morning after what she called the most perfect day of her life in Montenegro. Chanoa describes the shock, choosing to stay in Europe for Orthodox grieving traditions, and years of unprocessed grief that coincided with chronic health issues, food sensitivities, and tendonitis. Through modalities including yoga, retreats, EFT tapping, and especially Dr. Joe Dispenza meditations and a 2023 Denver retreat, she recognized long-standing victim mindset patterns, low self-love reflected in toxic relationships, and how “shoulds” and martyrdom kept her stuck. She shares tips such as recognizing exhausting situations, advocating for one’s inner child, and reframing self-love as refusing to give away power.

In episode eight of Her New Lens: Empowered Vision, Tricia Stone explains that vision and self-image don’t sustain themselves without a consistent daily practice to counter the ego’s loud narrative, sharing a recent moment in which a small disappointment triggered an old story about being behind. Using ideas from James Clear’s Atomic Habits—especially that “every action is a vote for the person you want to become,” plus habit stacking and the two-minute rule—she outlines three simple touchpoints to keep vision alive: morning visualization, a small creative art practice (plus taking an inspiring photo during the day), and printing images to add to a collage/vision board or digital board. She emphasizes scheduling these practices in Google Calendar for accountability and closes by recapping the season’s earlier episodes and inviting listeners to design three touchpoints, stack them onto existing habits, and add them to the calendar. 00:00 Season Recap Setup 00:28 Why Vision Slips 01:00 Ego Story Spiral 02:48 Atomic Habits Framework 05:31 Three Daily Touchpoints 06:00 Morning Visualization 06:48 Creative Art And Photos 08:35 Vision Board Collage 11:34 Habit Stacking Two Minutes 12:32 Calendar Accountability 16:34 Your Weekly Challenge 18:03 Season Wrap And Goodbye

Stop Waiting and Move Anyway: From Measurement to Possibility In episode eight of the Empowered Vision season, host Tricia Rose Stone confesses she began Her New Lens with no audio experience, audience, or plan, and nearly listened to an inner voice urging her to wait until she was ready. Drawing on Rosamund and Benjamin Zander’s The Art of Possibility and Ben Zander’s nursing-home story, she argues that clarity and frameworks often appear only after taking action. She contrasts the “world of measurement” (comparison, scarcity, fear, and waiting for proof) with the “universe of possibility” (openness, contribution, and willingness). Tricia shares personal examples—starting the podcast, envisioning a relationship after an eight-month dating pause, and building a Boston practice—showing how committing to a vision and moving step by step creates momentum and invites outcomes that couldn’t be measured in advance. 00:00 Confession And Vision 02:08 Book That Shifts Thinking 02:52 Nursing Home Lesson 04:21 Invented Limitations 06:01 Move Before Clarity 08:01 Two Worlds Explained 09:41 Rock Bottom To Vision 12:49 Be A Contribution 14:12 You Are The Board 16:41 Frameworks Through Movement 17:35 Personal Proof And Practice 19:28 Final Call To Move

Build the Vision for Love: Naming the Old Pattern and Creating a New Felt Sense In episode six of the Empowered Vision season of Her New Lens, Tricia Rose Stone shares how she once feared love after repeated dysfunctional relationships that left her feeling unvalued, and how a rock-bottom relationship forced her to confront the “vision” of love she had unconsciously been recreating. She explains that relationship lenses are inherited from early family dynamics and cultural narratives, shaping a self-image that repeats patterns like abandonment, drama, or unworthiness. Tricia describes her own childhood imprint with an alcoholic, unavailable father, and a later emotional breakdown that led her to stop dating and focus on healing, nervous system awareness, and deliberate creation. She outlines building a new relationship vision from the inside out—prioritizing desired feelings like safety, security, and being valued—using journaling, reminders, gratitude, creative visioning, and identity work, then letting go with trust; eight months later, she met her husband, whom she has been with for nine years. 00:00 Fear of Love 01:53 Inherited Relationship Lenses 04:26 Patterns and Self Image 06:54 My Father and Abandonment 08:27 Name the Old Vision 09:38 Rock Bottom Clarity 11:45 My Rock Bottom Story 17:09 Building a New Vision 22:23 Daily Practices to Align 26:40 Letting Go and Trust 28:48 Weekly Takeaways and Close

In episode four of the Empowered Vision season of Her New Lens, Tricia Rose Stone explores self-sabotage through Gay Hendricks’ “upper limit problem” from The Big Leap: an unconscious “internal thermostat” that pulls us back when success, love, joy, or abundance exceed what we believe we can allow. She shares two personal upper limits—fear that visible success will lead to isolation and fear she can’t balance success with wellness, relationships, travel, and interests—then describes common upper-limit behaviors like picking fights, worrying, blame and criticism, procrastination, and mindless scrolling, often appearing right after breakthroughs. She outlines Hendricks’ four underlying barriers (feeling fundamentally flawed; disloyalty/abandonment; burden; capacity) and connects the pattern to staying in the “zone of excellence” instead of the “zone of genius.” She offers steps to dismantle it: name the barrier, catch the pattern in real time, complete the vision (especially for capacity fears), and question isolation fears, including learning from “expanders,” and closes with a weekly challenge and a teaser for next week’s guest episode. 00:00 Season Recap Setup 01:05 Personal Upper Limits 02:21 Inner Thermostat Explained 06:21 Upper Limit Behaviors 13:04 Four Hidden Barriers 17:25 Zone of Genius 21:46 Dismantle The Ceiling 24:52 Weekly Challenge Wrap 25:43 Closing Next Week

Tricia Rose Stone presents episode three of the Empowered Vision Series, focusing on visualization as a deliberate, trainable, science-backed skill rather than wishful thinking. Inspired by Maya Raichoora’s book Visualize and supported by ideas she cites from Joe Dispenza, she explains that the predictive brain can’t easily distinguish vividly imagined experiences from real ones, making anxiety a form of unconscious negative visualization, and that deliberate visualization can create new mental patterns. She shares personal examples of manifesting her husband after 7 months of focused visualization, and of manifesting an optometry practice in Boston after recognizing the city and finding a practice one block from a park she’d stayed near. She outlines outcome, process, and creative visualization, recommends a daily “ideal day” rehearsal, emphasizes small, consistent practice, self-belief, and writing down bold visions. 00:00 Series Setup 01:06 Why Visualization Works 02:42 Brain Prediction Patterns 05:32 Anxiety as Visualization 07:30 Athletes Proven Rehearsal 08:32 Manifesting True Love 13:25 Three Visualization Types 18:56 Boston Practice Manifestation 24:09 Daily Ideal Day Routine 27:34 Self-Belief Matters 29:53 Weekly Takeaways Outro

On “Her New Lens,” Tricia interviews Xanet, a sex and intimacy educator, coach, and author (and former healthcare lawyer/executive) who spent 26 years in a sexless marriage, left at 50, and then began a 15-year career helping individuals and couples rebuild connection. They discuss how emotional safety underpins desire—especially for women—and how lack of safety, trauma, shame, and disconnection from the body can shut down libido, while men may feel emotionally safe after sex, creating a common mismatch. Xanet explains what safety feels like (being heard without judgment or fixing), emphasizes that intimacy and sex are learnable skills, and highlights conflict repair as key to long-term relationships. They address menopause and libido myths, noting bad or performative sex and “obligation sex,” and describe how new relationship energy can revive desire at any age. Xanet shares guidance for singles on examining patterns and red flags, and introduces her books, “The Sex and Intimacy Repair Kit” and “Living an Orgasmic Life,” offering lenses of pleasure and vulnerability. 00:00 Welcome and Setup 00:28 Meet Xanet 02:13 Her Turning Point 06:08 Safety Drives Desire 09:03 Men vs Women Safety 11:16 What Safety Feels Like 13:28 Intimacy Skills Learned 16:38 Menopause Desire Myths 17:15 Bad Sex and Obligation 19:06 Long Term Connection 20:21 Attunement Equals Safety 21:15 Attachment Wounds Explained 22:09 Preparing for New Love 25:09 Patterns and Red Flags 27:37 Relationships as Healing 28:39 Pressure to Pick Right 30:15 Healing Takes Time 31:43 Inside the New Book 34:06 Two Lenses to Try 36:37 Final Reflections

Tricia Rose Stone introduces season three of “Her New Lens,” titled “Empowered Vision,” and explains that the work begins before goals or vision boards with updating self-image—what you believe you deserve and what’s possible for a woman like you—drawing on Maxwell Maltz’s “Psycho-Cybernetics.” She contrasts “I’ll believe it when I see it” with Wayne Dyer’s “you’ll see it when you believe it,” arguing that proof follows an inner decision and that circumstances can’t outpace self-image, illustrated with examples from La La Land, Love Actually, and lottery winners. Stone shares her own journey from divorce and single motherhood to meeting her husband at 44 after years of visualization and identity work, and outlines three practices: an identity audit of inherited beliefs, a future-self letter, and seven days of daily mental rehearsal, drawing on neuroscience that shows vividly imagined experiences shape the nervous system. 00:00 Season Premiere Setup 00:38 Vision Before Goals 03:41 Believe Then See 07:15 Movie Proof Lala Land 09:32 Self Image Creates Life 11:22 Maxwell Maltz Explained 12:47 Why We Can't Hold It 15:17 Deposits Into Identity 17:10 Visualization Neuroscience 19:14 Inherited Beliefs Lens 21:51 Self Image Changes 23:53 Her Story: Divorce To Love 27:24 Decide To See Beyond 31:12 No Permission Needed 32:02 Three Practical Exercises 36:03 Wrap Up And Next Week

Tricia Rose Stone discusses a viral video of Punch, an abandoned baby monkey clinging to a stuffed animal, to explore how humans seek secure attachment rather than just love. She explains why secure love can feel unfamiliar or “boring” to people conditioned to equate love with emotional intensity, noting that nervous systems may associate uncertainty and stress with attraction. Drawing on attachment theory research by John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth’s “Strange Situation,” she outlines secure, anxious, and avoidant patterns and how early bonding becomes a lifelong blueprint. She contrasts dopamine-driven romantic highs with oxytocin-based bonding in secure relationships, describes markers of secure attachment (safety, consistency, curiosity, repair), shares her own history of avoidant partners and family alcoholism, and emphasizes that neuroplasticity and inner work can shift attachment toward security. 00:00 Punch and Attachment 01:42 Why Secure Feels Boring 04:17 Familiarity and Nervous System 05:54 Attachment Theory Basics 09:23 Stress Mistaken for Love 11:37 Signs of Secure Attachment 13:21 Tricia Personal Story 16:00 Healing and Neuroplasticity 17:17 Reflection Questions 19:19 Closing New Lens

Host Tricia Rose Stone welcomes June Edward, a bestselling author, psychic medium, and creator of the Relationship Mastery Program, to discuss how shifting inner perception influences relationships. June explains that relationships are chosen before birth for soul lessons and can be romantic or non-romantic, with patterns repeating until the lesson is understood. She describes energy as vibration and says people attract partners on the same “frequency,” advising singles not to chase relationships but to raise their vibration to attract healthier connections. Drawing on her near-death experience, June emphasizes that fear blocks connection to the soul and states that love is the highest vibration and never dies. She outlines how karma and love intersect, describing karmic relationships as uncomfortable and lesson-driven and soulmate relationships as supportive and not necessarily ending once lessons are learned; people can have multiple karmic and soulmate relationships simultaneously, including within family. June recommends proper meditation (20 minutes, three times a day) to connect to intuition and offers instructions via email. She also shares a couples tip from her program: during conflict, avoid triggering questions and instead mirror the partner and use open-ended statements. The episode closes with a suggested “lens of happiness,” noting that happiness and laughter raise vibration, and directs listeners to juneedward.com and triciarosestone.com for further resources. 00:00 Welcome to Her New Lens 01:12 Meet June Edward 01:39 Relationships Are Chosen 03:15 Stop Repeating Patterns 04:41 Attract Dont Chase 05:43 Heal Your Vibration 07:18 Near Death Insights 08:25 Love Karma Explained 10:38 Karmic vs Soulmate 12:28 Meditation For Intuition 13:37 Dream Visits From Beyond 14:20 Relationship Mastery Tools 16:01 Mastery And Self Power 17:18 Love Never Dies 20:01 Lens Of Happiness 21:07 Closing And Next Steps

Host Tricia Rose Stone introduces her podcast, Her New Lens, and shares how reading verse one of the Tao Te Ching began her shift from striving and control to trust and allowing. She describes a period in her mid-thirties as a single mom marked by survival mode, constant pressure, and jaw tension from trying to force outcomes. After encountering Wayne Dyer at a Hay House conference in New York and later reading his book Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life, she found the first verse soothing and began exploring its core teaching: the difference between desire-driven forcing and spacious, trust-based allowing. The episode frames this as the first pillar of her New Lens Method—Heart-Led Transformation—moving from head to heart by releasing control, calming the nervous system, and opening to clarity, peace, synchronicity, and alignment. She offers self-inquiry questions about where listeners may be forcing rather than allowing, gives examples related to relationships and the timing of life events, references Byron Katie’s idea that “Reality is always kinder than the stories we tell ourselves about it,” and invites listeners to explore more resources and coaching at triciarosestone.com. 00:00 Welcome to Her New Lens: The Power of Perception 00:31 From Striving to Allowing: Discovering Heart-Led Transformation 01:20 Life in Survival Mode: Single Mom Pressure & the Need to Control 03:39 A Serendipitous Introduction to the Tao (Wayne Dyer & Hay House) 05:08 Verse One of the Tao Te Ching: Reading the Passage 06:36 Desire vs. Allowing: The Two Sides of the Coin 08:51 The Mystery as the Doorway: Synchronicities & Trust 10:27 Pillar One of the New Lens Method: Releasing Control to Find Alignment 12:35 Applying Allowing in Real Life: Relationships, Timing, and Micro-Planning 14:31 Self-Inquiry Prompts: Where Are You Forcing Instead of Allowing? 15:30 Why This Teaching Works: Balancing Action with Surrender 16:59 Closing Reflection & Next Steps: Let Life Align
