This week, we’re rewinding back to Episode #2: Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy Q&A - Your Questions Answered: Part 1, one of the most downloaded episodes of the entire year. It’s sitting just under 400 listens, which tells me people are far more curious about hypnotherapy than they often admit out loud.

And that’s exactly why I wanted to bring this one back.

There is still so much confusion and fear around hypnosis, mind control myths, stage tricks, “am I going to cluck like a chicken?” (yes, we talk about that).

And demystifying this work matters to me, because so many of the patterns people feel ashamed of, procrastination, money struggles, emotional eating, and perfectionism, are not personal failures.

They’re subconscious programs, and once you understand that, everything changes.

So if you’re new here, this replay is the perfect introduction to my work.

If you missed it the first time, here’s your chance to hear it without digging through the archive.

And if you’re thinking about working with me in 2026, this gives you a clear sense of how I approach subconscious change and why it works.

What You'll Learn:

• The difference between hypnosis and hypnotherapy
• How hypnosis compares to meditation (and why they serve different purposes)
• Why hypnosis is NOT mind control, and what really happens in a session
• When hypnotherapy creates instant shifts vs. when change unfolds over time
• How hypnotherapy can complement talk therapy and medication (and where the limits are)

This week’s hypnocoaching session is with a woman who has been working hard to grow her business, but nothing is really moving the way she expected. She’s showing up, she’s doing the inner work, she’s trying all the things, and still feeling like something is blocking her, but she can’t quite figure out what it is.

As we talk, it becomes clear she’s caught in a very real, very confusing place: wanting the next level… and feeling scared of it at the same time. Scared of failing, yes… but also unsure of what success might demand from her, change in her life, or reveal about her. It’s a kind of tension that lives quietly under the surface, and most people never say it out loud.

Inside the hypnosis, the part of her that’s been holding everything back finally gets a voice, and by the end of the session, that part of her gets what it never had: safety, clarity, and permission to stop carrying a job it took on a long time ago. And because of that, she gets to walk away with a different sense of herself and her capacity to grow.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode

• How fear of failure and fear of success often show up at the same time
• Why you can do “everything right” and still feel stuck
• The difference between lacking strategy and being subconsciously protected
• How your body responds when something doesn’t feel safe, even if you logically want it
• What happens when the part of you that’s been holding you back is finally understood

In this solo episode, I’m diving into the real side of gratitude.

Not the fluffy “write three things in your journal” version, or the pressure-filled “just be grateful” advice.

But the subconscious, neurological, and deeply human layers of gratitude, especially for those who grew up in chaos, survival mode, or environments where softening never felt safe.

We explore why gratitude often feels fake, irritating, or out of reach, and why your nervous system might actually resist it. You will learn how real gratitude, the kind you feel in your body rather than think in your head, creates micro moments of safety that your subconscious uses to rewire old patterns.

Then we go deeper into future gratitude, the practice of feeling grateful for the life you are creating before it arrives, and why your brain responds to imagined emotions with the same intensity as real ones. This is where identity shifting happens.

What You Will Learn:

• Why gratitude often feels fake, forced, or unavailable, and why that is normal
• The subconscious reason your brain resists gratitude when you are in survival mode
• The difference between present and future gratitude
• How gratitude regulates the nervous system on a physiological level
• Why your brain cannot tell the difference between real and imagined emotions
• Simple ways to start practicing both types of gratitude (present and future) today

If this episode resonated, make sure to subscribe, rate, and leave a review. It helps more people find this work.

And if you know someone who struggles with gratitude, feels guilty for not being “more grateful,” or lives in constant survival mode, send them this episode.

It might help them understand that their struggle with gratitude is a subconscious protection pattern, and like all patterns, it can be rewired.

In this week’s hypnocoaching session, you’ll meet Nicki, a kind, self-aware woman who has spent most of her life trying to be understood.

She doesn’t just explain things; she overexplains them. In texts. In conversations. In moments of conflict.

As we go deeper into the session, we discover where this pattern began: a childhood moment when love felt conditional and peace depended on keeping others calm. The part of her that learned to justify everything wasn’t wrong. It was protecting her from being rejected, blamed, or left alone.

But what once kept her safe is now keeping her small, and in this session, that part finally gets to rest.

• The real reason we overexplain and what we’re actually trying to protect
• How childhood conditioning trains your nervous system to equate safety with control
• Why some parts of you can’t relax, even when life finally feels calm
• What it means to give that part a new role rooted in reflection, not justification
• How to integrate your younger self so you feel whole, grounded, and free

And if you know someone who can’t stop explaining themselves, even when they don’t owe anyone an explanation, share this episode with them.

Because sometimes overexplaining isn’t overthinking. It’s overprotecting. A child’s way of saying, “If I can make sense to them, maybe I’ll be safe.”

In this episode, Safiya and I unpack one of the most exhausting and misunderstood patterns so many of us carry: the deep, subconscious pull to keep everyone else comfortable, even when it costs us our own peace.

We explore how people-pleasing isn’t really about being nice, it’s about safety. When your nervous system learns that harmony equals survival, saying “yes” becomes a reflex, not a choice.

Together, we talk about the childhood experiences, family dynamics, and cultural conditioning that train us to equate approval with worth and rejection with danger. We also explore how this pattern becomes part of our identity, the helper, the fixer, the easygoing one, and what it actually looks like to heal without swinging to the other extreme of being detached or cold.

From the physical exhaustion that comes from managing everyone’s emotions, to the quiet resentment that builds when you abandon your own needs, this conversation will help you understand why people-pleasing runs so deep, and how to start finding safety in simply being yourself.

What You’ll Learn

• Why people-pleasing is less about kindness and more about safety
• How early family and cultural dynamics shape approval-seeking behavior
• The difference between genuine generosity and self-abandonment
• How your subconscious links safety to control and emotional regulation
• What it means to care without losing yourself in the process
• Small, practical ways to start feeling safe saying “no”

And if you know someone who feels like they’re carrying the weight of everyone else’s emotions, send them this episode. It might help them see that their people-pleasing isn’t who they are, it’s just a safety story. And that story can be rewritten.

What if transformation wasn’t about pushing harder, but about becoming the person who no longer needs to?

In this week’s episode, I sit down with Greg Fearon, creator of The Million Dollar Body Method, to explore how identity, not discipline, shapes every result we create in health, business, and life.

Greg shares what it was like growing up in London as the child of Jamaican immigrants, and how stories about money, success, and worth shaped his path long before he became a personal trainer and nutrition coach. We talk about the subconscious stories women carry about rest, responsibility, and deservingness, and why so many of us mistake exhaustion for achievement.

Greg’s work is rooted in what he calls The Superhero Identity Method, helping women build a vision of who they want to become, then align their daily choices with that future self. Because lasting change doesn’t come from more willpower. It comes from rewriting the story of who you believe yourself to be.

What You’ll Learn

• Why information and discipline alone don’t create transformation
• How identity shapes your health, energy, and self-worth
• The hidden story behind “I don’t have time”
• Why rest is a leadership skill, not a luxury
• How to align your daily habits with your future self

Your Next Steps

If this episode speaks to you, take a moment to check in with your body today.

Not with judgment, with curiosity.

Ask yourself: What version of me would make this next choice?

Would she rest? Move? Nourish? Breathe?

Because every workout, every meal, every breath is a conversation between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming.

In this week’s hypnocoaching session, you’ll meet Yvette, a money mindset coach who helps women shift their beliefs around wealth, except when it comes to her own business.

Money flows to her easily in every other area of life, yet in business, it feels like a grind. No matter what she tries, something invisible seems to block the flow.

As we go deeper into the session, we discover where that block began: a childhood moment that taught her success and being “too much” could make her unlovable. The same part of her that’s been protecting her from disappointment has also been protecting her from ease.

This session isn’t about forcing abundance; it’s about making safety the foundation of success. Because once your nervous system feels safe receiving, ease becomes the new normal.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode

• How “good girl” conditioning shapes your relationship with money
• Why ease can feel unsafe when struggle once meant safety
• The deeper fear behind charging for your gifts
• What happens when guilt and worthiness get tangled
• How to rewire your subconscious to allow both impact and income

And if you know someone who keeps giving, grinding, and overdelivering, yet still struggles to receive, share this episode with them.

Because sometimes the struggle isn’t self-sabotage. It’s a subconscious promise you made long ago, to stay small so you’d stay safe.
