"We don't see things as they are. We see them as we are." — Anaïs Nin
Dr. Tricia Rose Stone spent 20 years as an optometrist correcting how people see the world, then she realized the most important lenses we wear aren't in front of our eyes. They're the beliefs, stories, and identities we've been looking through for a lifetime. And there comes a moment, for many women, it arrives in midlife, when the prescription simply stops working.

The future version of you is already waiting.
Can you see her now?

In this episode, we explore why efforts in manifestation often fall short despite setting intentions and the role of the nervous system in this process. Neurosurgeon Dr. James Doty emphasizes that the brain prioritizes safety, which can lead to resistance if the body doesn't feel secure. We discuss shifting the manifestation approach to start with establishing internal safety and regulating the nervous system. Techniques such as self-compassion are highlighted as essential for overcoming fears and opening pathways to manifestation. Personal experiences of overcoming fear and finding alignment within oneself provide practical insights. The episode concludes with coaching questions to help identify and address internal blocks to manifestation.00:00 Understanding the Missing Piece in Manifestation00:16 The Role of the Nervous System in Manifestation01:24 Real-Life Context: How Past Experiences Affect Manifestation02:54 Signs of Feeling Unsafe and Their Impact on Manifestation07:17 The Power of Visualization and Compassion10:10 Personal Story: Finding Safety and Contentment12:34 A New Order for Manifestation13:26 Coaching Questions for Self-Reflection14:14 Final Thoughts and How to Work with Me
